You know, I think the greatest contribution of atheism to society at large is that we have proven that we can live our lives as we see fit.
Humans do not have to apoligize for existing and we were not created to be a slave to any being, ideaology, or even purpose.
I revel in that there is no point to our lives because I am free to make my own.
I bother because I want to live.
I live because I damn well want to enjoy being alive while I have the chance.
Plus, what darwinian, paul, cego, and shinylight said are all examples of superb reasons.
