chemicals

Ah, the argument from personally unacceptable consequences.

I'm still waiting for any theist to tell me what the fucking hell meaning god gives to life anyway. Come on, anyone? He's watching you, keeping score, and then deciding whether to give you a really nice afterlife or a sucky one. So this life amounts to a test for his amusement. What meaning is that? It sounds like fuck all meaning to me. It's degrading and stupid and I want no part in it, if I thought any of it was real.

Instead, a sceptical atheist will suppose this life is 100% of their existence. An afterlife type person generally thinks this life makes up 0% of their whole existence. So again, how does that make it meaningful? It makes it negligible.

I'm happy to say life, or indeed anything, has no inherent purpose. But chemicals produce emergent properties it seems, such as consciousness, and we somehow start experiencing things. Presuming other life forms experience things kind of like we do, there's a world to play in for a short while. Enjoy your life, look after others, and don't be a cockring. It's simple. And you'll enjoy it a lot more once you realize that Jesus isn't really watching you masturbate, and he doesn't really hate you because you're gay. He doesn't do anything because he's just a dead guy, if he ever existed at all.

I guess I was wrong. Feels awkward.
