Atheism and the meaning of life - what drives you?

[LadyForCamus]

That’s an interesting challenge. I believe the earth revolves around the sun.

Yeah that's not a belief. It's a fact. Try again.

Of course it is. It’s a proposition that I can either accept as true (believe), or not accept as true (lack belief). Whether or not the belief is rationally justified (i.e. the proposition is a well-established scientific fact) is a separate discussion. See, that’s how this works. Some people want to make sure that most of their beliefs are grounded in facts, and other people, like you, just believe any old crazy shit that sounds good regardless of the belief’s status as a fact of reality. They’re all still beliefs, irrespective of their quality.

So, why do you believe that the earth revolves around the sun?
