But in answer to your question, it is inferior because it comes from you, a finite being, and is based on your relationship with things in this world, that are finite. While the believer is also a finite being, the believer has a relationship with the Infinite.
The problem with that is, there is no infinite to have a relationship with. You've only deluded yourself into thinking there is. Thus, the 'meaning' you have applied to life is completely fraudulent. In the end, you'll be just another carcass, no different from ours.

None of us has any such assurance. We're just being honest with ourselves about that.
It doesn't matter in the end, of course, but you only get this life, you ought not to waste it preparing for an afterlife which exists only in your fantasies.
