Life is nothing

[Mister Agenda]

If we are just created by chance and nothing else, then what's the point of living if in the end, we are just gonna die and be forgotten? If we are nothing but a bunch of cells and sperms that had evolved over time, then why must we care and love one another? And no, saying that we need others to survive is not an valid answer. I don't care about surviving. If life's is just about surviving, then that means we should only care about ourselves and nothing else. So that means that hospitals and medicine and things like that should not exist. Nothing in ever matters so we might as well die and not exist since nothing we ever do as humans will accomplish a single thing. So why bother? God does not exist. Heaven does not exist. Spirits don't exist. The only thing that exists is just us in a dark, empty void with a bunch of gases that we call the universe. That's it. So we should need to live a long, happy life since we will just die and soon be forgotten and wither away. Life comes from nothing, death means we become nothing, therefore life itself means absolutely nothing. I hate atheism.

Living is its own point. There's nothing 'just' about what we are, we're not 'just a bunch of cells', we're a bunch of cells with consciousness, the ability to devise our own purpose, the protagonists of our own stories. There's no 'must' about caring for and loving one another, but it's very rewarding to do so and very miserable to forego it entirely. Just because life is about surviving doesn't mean we can't care about anything else...but if it WERE the only consideration, hospitals and medicine and things like that make perfect sense. We can accomplish things despite being temporary, we can even accomplish things that will still matter generations after we're dead. We bother because we care. Everything you have said up to this point is simply wrong.

Heaven and spirits very likely don't exist. It's just us, or at least just us to a long way out in a void with lots of stuff in it like stars and black holes that we call the universe. That's a lot. So yes, we should live a long and happy life to the extent that we are able, especially since we're going to die and eventually be forgotten and decay to be recycled back into the rest of the universe. Life comes from life all the way back to the first living thing on earth, death means our stories have a conclusion.

We're the only part of the universe that cares about us. Life means something because it means something to us. It doesn't matter now that nothing I do will matter in a million years. Nothing would make my life on earth more meaningless than it being followed by an eternity without ever ending. No one would want to see a movie or read a book that never ends. A story has a beginning, a middle, and an end; and our lives are stories.

Hate away, atheism is not responsible for your cynical nihilistic outlook. That's on you.

Survival is not a answer since we are far past the point when it comes to "surviving". And also, I'll let you know that once again, what's the point of living if life was simply created by chance? That would mean we were not ever meant to exist.

We don't have a point to our existence the way a hammer has a point to its existence, as a tool made for a specific purpose. Because we're not the product of intention, we have the freedom to choose our own purpose.
