"P1) For a being to have an objective purpose (OP) for its existence, there must be a greater being whom imbues them with that OP."
I am never sure how to argue philosophy as I never studied it and that usually means I get the wrong end of the stick.
The above is the problem for me. Does it have to be a greater being that imbues them with OP?
Whilst I would not argue that my life lacked OP prior to the birth of my daughter it certainly gained a great deal of OP on her arrival.
She was not, at that time, a greater being than me, yet she gave me what I would regard as objective purpose - bringing her up as well as I possibly can.
I'm guessing this is not what you were looking for.
But - if my daughter can give me OP could we give God OP?
