If I were religious, I'd find meaning in giving money and time to help other children of God as it's God's will, and I love him, and I love other people, and all that horseshit. Life would be a gift that I wouldn't want to waste. And I'd try to improve the world for the future doing good deeds, and being kind, and blahbity blah blah.
As an Atheist, I don't give a shit about much of anything. I'm going to enjoy my time here as best I can. No grand purpose. Just have a nice time. Then die.
I'd have to do some crazy mental gymnastics to believe I find more meaning in my life than a Christian should find in theirs based on their belief system. On top of the fact, I don't want to try and reach for that conclusion. A meaningless life is pretty nice.
The link is completely safe. I would simply just post a screenshot, but as I am now at work, I don't want to get into trouble with my employer!
