How would you know which of your actions are good or bad? A kick up the pants has at times produced a better result than mountains of care.
Is it up to the world to give you meaning, or is that something you have to find in yourself? I put mine with my keys, I think, no its not there, now let me think, yes I must have left it in the pub.
Expecting isn't it. Results do emerge from actions. It has nothing to do with religion. You have mistaken a query in cause and effect for one in religion and the meaning of life. Society classes actions as good and bad, morality isn't a religious issue. Its a human one that we as a species define and redefine constantly.
Like I said; lets keep this grounded in reality.
