If you're going to seriously reject the existence of God or a purpose to the universe/life you will have to face the consequences of the truth which is going to be a little bit nihilistic whether you like it or not.

Because you say so?

Seriously, I could sit here and assert things all day long, without providing any sort of justification, exactly like you're doing.

Except that I won't, because that would make me an intellectually bankrupt person.

And I note that you are still using a fallacious appeal to consequences, even after it's been pointed out to you.

Do you honestly think that it would matter to me in the least if the truth happened to be a little less than cuddly? It would not, and my desire for it to be so in no way shape or form alters the underlying fabric of reality.
