What I am saying is that if atheism is true then ultimately there is no meaning in life. We may "think" our lives have meaning and I'm sure most people do, it's whether this belief we have is true or not. So the focus is not on what I believe, but how atheists can logically claim meaning in life other than an imaginary one which they have created. Have you even looked at Rosenbergs book? He is an atheist and he wants atheists to face up to this problem.
Wonder if I have your own perspective correct on the possibility of meaning in ones life. Apparently you think there is no need to really believe that God exists in order to maintain a robust sense of meaning in your life. The problem, if I understand you correctly, is for those who deny the unquestioned existence of God. Those who don't rock the boat will be untroubled by questions of meaning. So you are really arguing for living an unexamined life devoid of any open reflection.
Does that actually work for you? Did it require transorbital lobotomy surgery?
