It's only delusional when I claim my subjective meaning to life is the ultimate meaning to life. That is what religious people often do.
Dogmatic atheist- We don't know but you can just make up an imaginary meaning in your brain (thus living a delusion)

Dogmatic atheist (Dawkins)- There is no good and evil, we all dance to the tune of our DNA
Quote:Why then do we put "evil" people in jails? ("evil" is a religious word)That is not a "truly honest dogmatic atheist" answer. People hurting other people is bad for our society. So we locked them up.
