Because deep within I believe we all question and seek answers to four major questions.
Origin
Meaning
Morality
Destiny
Where do I come from?
What gives life meaning?
How do I differentiate between good and bad?
What happens to a human being when he or she dies?
The atheistic worldviews answers to these questions, I find depressing. I think most people have a longing for life after the grave, we feel there is something more. May be not all people, but most.
Atheism says we are a cosmic accident, each person defines their own meaning, each person defines their own good, and then dust. To me, personally, that is depressing.
Phrase of the year:
KingPin for president! Lol. I'm still nominating you.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
