Amen. I'd also like to know why he doesn't think his own decision to go all in on goddidit doesn't count as creating his own meaning/purpose. It is his own decision to assign meaning there. How hard can it be for him to understand that others make their own choices too and, gosh darn it, sometimes we just don't choose what he has chosen.
I did answer the question you referenced. It was a couple days ago. I also understand that others choose differently than me. My original question was related to whether atheists care about the "why" of our existence or not.
