Your god? No. A god? I don't know.
Quote:2. Where did the universe come from?
I don't know. The Big Bang is the best working theory we have, but is subject to change. I also don't really care outside of the "Hey, that's neat" factor.
Quote:3. Does my life have a purpose?
I don't know. Who are you and what do you do?
Quote:4. Why do people suffer?
Because reality is uncaring? The universe really doesn't seem to care about who gets cancer and who doesn't, who gets killed in a tsunami and who doesn't, who gets injured in war and who doesn't, etc. Shit happens.
Quote:5. Is there life after death?
I don't know. I lean towards not.
Quote:6. Can I distinguish right from wrong?
I don't know. Can you?
Quote:7. Can people know truth?
About what?
Oh, don't get me wrong, I know the game you're trying to play. It's an old one, and not very convincing at that. I give my life purpose by doing what I can to leave the world a slightly better place in my wake. I don't need a deity in my life to hold me at the precipice of hell to do good. I'm neither an infant nor psychopath who needs the persistent hand of a father figure to guide my every action.
I have no need for gods, even if they did exist.
