RE: Question for Atheists

There isn't a "why". The laws of physics simply are. The chemical reactions that make biology simply are. Your body, your consciousness are just really, really complicated chemical reactions.

There are what, 100 billion+ stars in our galaxy, and 100zillion galaxies in the observable universe? To think we're somehow special and have a "purpose" is arrogant, and IMO, wrong.

Believing we had some grand, cosmic, or divine meaning would be nice...but something being nice and comforting doesn't make it true.
