“Pertaining to the question of meaning and purpose in life:
If you believe that there is no God then you must conclude that
a. You come from nowhere.”
No, I must conclude that the pathway to me being here was not directed by God. That’s all.
“b. You come from no one.”
I’ve met my parents and their parents, and some of THEIR parents and seen pictures, family trees, some graves… Not a fitting conclusion.
“c. When you die you are going nowhere.”
There are not many atheists that believe in an afterlife, but there are some. You betray YOUR conclusions, not all atheist possibilities.
“d. When you die you are going to no one.”
Yes, that’s why I’m having my ashes spread on a Hooters site in the Capital.
“e. You have no objective reason to live.”
But plenty of subjective ones, so shut your noisehole.
“According to the atheist, your whole existence is just matter in motion. Your thoughts, emotions, and actions are just chemical reactions determined by a set of naturalistic factors. The whole universe came about by chance. You were not intended and your entire being, all that you are, is a complete and total accident. Inevitably, the result is the same for all. We will all one day die and cease to exist. According to the atheist.”
More to the point, no matter how fucking opinionated anyone else is, no one has shown a good reason to think otherwise.
“The Christian, however, believes”
But cannot show. So what difference does it make?
“Without God there is no objective meaning or purpose for human existence.”
If you need a divine entity to give you meaning, then it’s still not objective.
"The atheist believes he lives for no reason and no one.”
Wrong. I don’t believe I live for a divine reason, i don’t believe my purpose is imposed upon me by an imaginary being. Your mileage may vary.
“More importantly, the Atheist lies to himself”
Feel free to prove it’s a lie.
"Remember, emotions, intellect, actions, thoughts, whatever it is, it's all just chemicals fizzing for no clear or objective reason (according to the atheist).”
You draw some fascinatingly self-serving conclusions from what you don’t completely understand. How unexpected. Much shock.
"Therefore there is no such thing as love.”
Not true. We experience love. We’d have to be fucking stupid to deny that it exists. But we cannot pretend it exists only because of some ineffable quality within humans like a soul.
“The Atheist fails to see that love is real and that it was love that brought him into existence.”
You mean that guy that raped my mother loved her? Or do you refer to the ‘loving’ god that watched it happen and did fuck-all to stop it?
“"He who does not love does not know God, for God is love." 1 John 4:8″
