The idea that life is pointless without a stalker in the sky watching me take my morning dump and subsequent first sin of the day (whatever it may be) stretches the bounds of sanity.
I have kids; they love me. So do my friends and other family. It means that I represent value to real people, and those people are valuable to me. I have my work, my creative side, etc. Just exercising my feeble intellect on the internet contributes to me wanting to continue my existence. I certainly don't need the Great Invisible Pervert marking down another notch on his Opoponax list for every time I beat off (there'd have to a be warehouse to store that list). But the insane thing is that God already knew that I was going to discover jacking-off when I was 12 and He knew it would be a lifelong project whether I was single, had a girlfriend, got married, reproduced.
It's so goddamn weird to believe that. And the OP is on about sciencey stuff??? What about the fact that you believe in a being who watches everything you do and keeps track of it, but more, who always knew what you were going to do, knew he was going to keep track of it----and knew it 500 trillion years ago. At best he's an undetectable robot; at worst, he's a slave stuck in a thing where he can never learn anything and is doomed to watch me take a shit every morning.
