Meaningfulness v meaninglessness; theism vs atheism;

Can you just get to your point and explain what the fuck is actually WRONG with illusory meaning, and how you can possibly have anything more than that whether you believe otherwise or not?!
Because it isn't real. Following a meaning to its end, despite the fact that it is illusory, means that you will end with no meaning at all. So 'illusory meaning' is the same as 'no meaning.'
