I'm not sure whether this is the right place to post this, but I'd really appreciate some answers to some/all of the following questions. I'm interested in how an average atheist thinks about these topics. It would be great if you could give some explanation for your answers. I'm coming from a protestant worldview.
1. Does God exist?
2. Where did the universe come from?
3. Does my life have a purpose?
4. Why do people suffer?
5. Is there life after death?
6. Can I distinguish right from wrong?
7. Can people know truth?
Sorry for being point form.
1. NO, neither does Allah or Vishnu or Thor Or Apollo or Yahweh
2. The big bang,
3. Yes, the purpose you give it. But in the cosmic timescale we are all a mere blip.
4. Because reality is messy and not always pleasant.
5. What did life feel like for you before you were born? That should answer the question of what happens after you die.
6. Would it be ok for me to cut your nuts off or punch you in the face without your consent?
7. Yes, we know what gravity is, we know the speed of light, we know what DNA is, most certainly we can find truth.
