I love it when theists come here telling me that my life is meaningless and purposeless when my wife is getting close to having our second child any day now. Of course my wife and kids couldn't give my life meaning or purpose, because I'm an atheist.
I just wish that people of all religious walks would realize that we atheists are just like them. We want the same things out of life. We want to live a good life, we want our kids to grow up healthy & happy, and we want a good life for them. We want to be happy in our marriages and in our jobs. The only difference is that our lives don't revolve around trying to keep a magical, invisible being happy. Everything else is pretty much the same, though.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
