Dealing with existential nihilism

Yea that may be, but isms still give me a lip twitch regardless of what you put in front of it. Humans are still ultimately individuals. There are some atheists whom have started what they like to call "atheist churches". That has the potential long term to become dogmatic over generations. Even atheists have attempted, and I have been at this for 16 years, attempted to write what they think is their own objective moral list. Problem with doing that is time, growth, splintering and power shifting over time. Not even we are above evolution's ability to compete or be cruel.
