Hi there, i'm new

Hi there, i'm new
Just made an account and thought it would be prudent to create my hello world post.

A little bit about me: I'm an atheist, I enjoy mixing video games and alcohol, and while cooking is an excellent hobby, there is a time and place for a large bowl of cheap ramen.

I also came here to ask a question, or a set of questions along the same lines, that I've been struggling with for over a decade now:

What kind of purpose can be derived from a life without religion?
What kind of meaning comes from being the current state of DNA that's simply trying to further its line?
If an asteroid annihilates the Earth tomorrow, what purpose did we serve by living?
Really I guess I'm just trying to ask, Why bother living? Not believing in a higher power of any flavor has led me to really wonder why I should bother to do anything. There's no purpose or reason.

I'm not sure if posting my question inside my introductory post was correct, but it really was the only thing I came here for.
