You need to really have a hard time.
Words hurt, because, like programming a program wrong, we can come out with conclusions that hurt and cause problems. One mistake sometimes in a program causes people to die while they were hoping to make it to outer space.
Guided Reason without misguidance, we need to hold on to it, and if we don't look for God to provide that, who will we look to?

This thread, this thread, a lot was proven.
There is a post, that it was better to pretend for there to be value and delude humans that there is such a thing, than not create myth and let them think there is no such thing.
We hate the Shamans and Prophets of old, but they steered humans to believing in self-worth.
What if you realized there is no justifying value without God but that God was impossible to exist, what you would do?
I thought I was at that point in that thread. I wanted to believe so badly that value is possible in the Atheism paradigm, but I couldn't believe it.
Yet I thought God was impossible.
You want to see how emotionally traumatized I was, just read that thread.
Irrelevant! In "The Selfish Gene" Dawkins said much more meaningful things about human's purpose than that. He actually advocates for living our lives in opposition to evolutionary trends. Even if it means our extinction. Read "The Selfish Gene" for yourself MK! It will not burn!
There was little talk of Dawkin's. Give the thread a read.
