One thing I think of when I heard Christians pose the question of the meaning of life to atheists is this. To Christians, shouldn't the meaning of life be essentially static? Shouldn't the main purpose of a Christian living in 5th century Rome, 10th Century Constantinople, 15th century France, 18th century Germany, 19th century America and today all be very close to the same thing? Well they aren't, not even close. Just read a little history and you'll be astonished at the various "purposes" that Christians have devoted themselves to over the centuries. They are wide, varied and sometimes contradictory. So lets stop pretending that Christians know some secret that no one else knows. Its nonsense.
Why is it so?
