Talk to the Syrian refugees about 'the great gift of life'. Sit down for a chat with a Sudanese child who hasn't eaten in four days, extolling what a great gift she's been given. Wax rhapsodic to the mother whose infant died 30 minutes after being born about that 'great' half hour gift.
All the evidence points to life being anything but a 'gift'. A gift implies a giver, and all the signs tell us that the universe is a pitilessly indifferent place.

Actually I was speaking to those who posted before me, you all have it made compared to the ones you've mentioned, I can understand them questioning. What I can't understand are those who question why stop short of using their lives to help others, to me this is a great purpose.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
