How about justice?

[Faith No More]

The fiendish murderer gets off completely free after he blows up innocent people with himself.
Yet, I know you guys have a strong sense of justice.
It comes out in your posts.
In a world seen thru the lens of atheism, how does ultimate justice have any meaning?
Doesn't the terrorist's cheating his due reward grate at your thinking?
Doesn't deep down inside you scream that something is wrong?

Sure, it sucks, because the cosmos is entirely indifferent to our wants and desires. Wrongs happen that cannot be righted, and it does cause me to scream inside. What it doesn't cause me to do is to start believing in invisible beings that will magically make everything okay when I'm dead, because, you know, emotion isn't rational. You can pine all you wish for some sort of super-judge to correct the injustices you see, but that doesn't make it so.

And if you think using emotion as a ploy to convince people that pride themselves on setting their feelings aside will work, you've got bigger problems than a belief in a phantasmal father figure.

That distasteful reality isn't a reason to believe in god.

Chad thinks making other worldviews look distasteful will somehow bolster his.
