I just explained the psychology in evolutionary terms to you as why you believe.
That is merely you refusing to accept your FINITE existence. It is a misfire in our species.
You already, I hope, accept that bacteria don't have a god, or cockroaches either. None of nature needs our continuing to happen. We were not around 4 billion years ago and we will not be around 5 billion years from now.
Our existence is an outcome of nature, not a requirement or starting point.
No, that is not doomsday or fatalistic in the least. I am finite and a mere blip in nature, is no different than accepting that the seasons change.
I still find meaning and joy and have the same ups and downs in life. I simply don't assign any of this to a god or magic.
