I don't care to keep repeating my points for you, they are readily available. (one example: you have not explained the point of life - you just said you want to make it more enjoyable - why? it doesn't make sense without answering why).
I did see something worth responding to at the end of this quote - about finding a purpose. You want me to abandon the purpose I have found, and look for one that meets your criteria? No thanks - yours doesn't make any sense, which is why I found mine. You claim there is no evidence, and I say if there is no afterlife then this life doesn't mean anything.
If you will explain why you exist (and why the universe exists), then we will talk. Explain how life means something if it is ultimately obliterated and nothing lasts - then we'll talk. Imagine if carpenters built homes for the homeless that disappeared instantly - would you call the carpenters good? Why? What point would there be in writing a book with disappearing ink?
You just don't get it, and for that I pity you.
Well that was a pathetic responce. I've said all I needed to say, if you cannot get past your delusions then this debate is over. You fail to provide evidence for an afterlife and a creator. If you think it doesn't make sense to you, fine! It makes sense to me and many others. I am not going to waste any more time with you. You ask for why live and the purpose and I have stated them. I think it's just beyond you to understand. You have your head shoved so far up superstition's arse that you cannot see past it.
Quote:You just don't get it, and for that I pity you.The feeling is mutual.
Quote:You claim there is no evidence, and I say if there is no afterlife then this life doesn't mean anything.I answered this in a previous post. Don't expect me to repeat or change my response.
Quote:If you will explain why you exist (and why the universe exists)I do not know how the universe began and nor do you. We can only assume at this point.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
