In either case, it is not knowledge.There isn’t one atheist on this board that will unequivocally state that the universe exist for no purpose. They may attempt to qualify it with an adjunct like that it has meaning for them, or they make their lives meaningfully. If by some quirky chance one ever did flat out state that, they wouldn’t get any kudos as a stamp-of-approval. There is a reason that won’t be done.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
