You are one of those people that seem to think that everything must have a purpose, even when there is no real need for one. Butterflies can do very well without purpose, monkeys can do very well without purpose, pretty much every animal on the planet can go without purpose. Yet because you as a thinking conscious animal have a need for purpose because most things around you serve a purpose to you.

And no, we don believe in any god or gods.
you said i dont know what an atheist is and an atheist is a person who does not believe in a God, so i told you what an atheist is.
All I am using here is simple logic to answer and figure things out.
For starters you said we dont believe in god, which would imply we only disbelieve 1 particular god, which is not the case.
Furthermore, you claim there is something atheists are supposed to do with regard to find meanings in anything. Well guess what. People who don't collect stamps don't need to do anything, people who don't like sniffing glue don't need to do anything, and people who don't believe in deities don't need to do anything.
It is not a lifestyle, it is not a philosophy, it is simply not believing in the fairytales.
What makes you think animals don't have a ultimate purpose in life?
Alright you don't believe in any God and no God it still does not make a difference for what I have said above cannot be disapproved about an atheist.
If atheist are suppose to do nothing then there life as no meaning. So let me ask you again why do you live a moral life because at the beginning you said you live a moral life? What I have presented to you is that an atheist lives a meaningless way but throughtout your life you try to find meaning by going to school, working, getting married, it don't add up and is not logical. Now since you have said a person can do what they like that makes being born meaningless either way for an atheist. You can take the moral path or destructive way or any other way, either way you live your life without an ultimate meaning, which makes everything else you do meaningless.
