Atheist Interview! All knowledgeable Atheists needed!

[Beta Ray Bill]

Hey everyone I am doing a interview on an Atheist for one of my classes so if you guys could answer these questions the best you could that would be great I am a Christian and I am trying to have a better understanding of what you believe. The longer the answer the better! (These were the questions my teacher gave me to ask).

1. What is prime reality? (What is real)?
2. What is the nature of external reality, that is, the world around us?
3. What is a human being?I
4. What happens to a person at death?
5. Why is it possible to know anything at all?
6. How do we know what is right and wrong?
7. What is the meaning of human history?
8. What personal, life orienting core commitments are consistent with this world view? (What do you do for your religion).


Thanks!

Okay, I'll play your game. I do not speak for every atheist, only me
1. Reality is the opposite of Faith. It's the lack of dependence on the imagination.
2. There is no way to answer that. Reality is being learned every day, and always will be. It wasn't answered by a 2,000 year old book.
3. Current evolved state of the genus "homo." And yes, that includes the current level of intelligence. ALL OF IT.
4. Their brain stays alive for a few minutes, then all function stops.
5. Chemical and electrical reactions in your brain record and recover information at a constant state. How? No one knows for sure.
6. We learn through trial and error what is the best way to interact with our local culture. Morals should be learned, not imposed.
7. To give us a record of what we have learned so that we can build upon that knowledge and become wiser. But yeah, a lot of things run in vicious circles. We're only human.
8. I do not have a religion, I learn philosophies, and apply what I see are best to my life. If I don't agree with it, I don't live by it. As I said before, my morals are learned, not imposed.

Again, I speak only for myself. Please do not make a stereotype.
Hope you get a good grade.
