Is nihilism the logical extreme of atheism?

[genkaus]

I'm an Atheist and Nihilist and I say yes. Atheists who are reject Nihilism are being intellectually dishonest.

Go ahead and prove it then.

That you feel that your life has meaning has no bearing on whether or not it actually does. You can supply meaning all you want but that doesn't mean anything. In 100 years all that meaning that you've convinced yourself of will likely be pointless.

That's like saying that since what you eat today, you'll shit tomorrow, you might as well not have eaten at all.

Rather than saying that it means that you should just mope around (like half the people on this fourm do anyway) it means that my life is truly free for me to do whatever I like with it.

Except you can't do whatever you like.
