Who says an atheistic life has no purpose? I've got a number of purposes, all self determined and just as valid as the one in your holy book, only far more personal and meaningful because I've chosen to devote the one brief existence I do have to them.

Is not a purpose freely chosen more significant than one dictated to you from on high?
