This.
The whole argument of "Why would anyone choose to accept a reality void of meaning? " is one of the most infantile and stupid arguments. It lacks so much logic it's unbelievable...a world full of faries and unicorns would be much more magical than the one we live in now so should we go around believing in all that? Just because being Atheist dosen't entail some meaning of there being a higher power it dosen't make it any less valid. It's such a self deluding claim to believe in religion just because it "has meaning". My life has meaning, knowing that it's the only one I got makes it all the more special. You can keep deluding yourself and waste this life worshipping a bullshit god that there is no evidence for if you like, but keep it the fuck away from me and the rest of society who want to live free of the dogma, guilt, evil and pain religion takes with it everywhere it goes throughout history.
