So I am an athiest. Now what?
May 10, 2012 at 8:10 pm
When I was in Christianity, I used god as the meaning of life. Heaven was the main goal. Now that I am an atheist, I am having trouble finding my purpose in life. So the question is now what? I need to find the point to being alive. That may sound somewhat depressive or suicidal of me, but I swear its not. I find wonder in this amazing world, I just want to know where I fit in. I want to do something worth my time. I don't want to waste my life. I need a purpose.

Did anyone here feel a loss of purpose when you became an atheist? How did you find your purpose? Do you have any suggestions on some philosophy to read? Any advise on finding my purpose? Do you have any stories you would like to share?
