RE: Questions for Atheists
Quote:What is the origin of the universe and man?

Science is working on it. Give it some time. It's been less than 100 years in the case of the cosmos.

What is the purpose of mankind?

To make other humans.

What is satisfaction and how do I obtain it?

Beats me....I Can't Get No Satisfaction.

What has gone wrong with the world? (Why is there evil in the world - Why do bad things happen to good people)

Some idiot introduced religion. Its been all downhill from there.

What is the solution to the problems we face? (what happens when I fail and how do I make things right)

Hard work usually solves most problems....as opposed to, say, praying... which accomplishes nothing.

What is right and wrong? (is moral truth absolute or relative)

It's relative... as in if Hitler had won WWII there would be statues of him all over Europe and the church would have made him a saint.

Is there a universal moral law?

Of course not.

What happens at death?

You die.

What does atheism do with the person of Jesus?

If you can provide evidence of such a "person" you will be the first. I doubt you can. (Your bible is not "evidence.")

RE: Questions for Atheists
The questions are worded extremely badly. If it's a real class the class has no idea how to go about understanding others' worldview. It's obviously asked from the point of view of christianity, especially that last question. I replied the other person with these questions. Now I rather regret it. The questions are so obviously and annoyingly egocentric.
