So you when to hell now what.

[Homeless Nutter]

There isn’t one atheist on this board that will unequivocally state that the universe exist for no purpose. [...]

"Purpose" is a human-made concept, which only exists in our minds. A product of neurological processes undoubtedly essential to our evolution and existence as sentient apes, but completely meaningless - or rather non-existent, since "meaning" is also such a concept - in terms of the nature of the universe. We may naively try to apply the rules that govern our brains to non-sentient objects and systems - in fact this is what children do, when they draw a personified sun with a smiley face - but it's unlikely to give us any actual insight into the "workings" of the cosmos and its physics. No more than a child's drawing does. Or ramblings of bronze age mad-men, for that matter.

So yeah - universe has no purpose, because nothing has a purpose, except in our humanoid minds, in order for us to remember what object to use for what activity. You're simply imagining a big, big human somewhere out there, who's using the universe for something. It's cute perhaps, but only when children do it.
