Life is empty and meaningless, and that doesn't mean anything.

With God, it has meaning. Also, with God, one is highly motivated to stand up for what is right. God help the man who fights against those whom God supports.

We don't disagree.

I merely hold man's version of meaning, which is a cognitive illusion, below the purpose of God. And I am not deep enough to even speak of God's meaning. Therefore, at an ontological level, life is empty and meaningless.

And THAT doesn't mean anything.

It's actually an affirmation of God and a humbling of men's understandings and aims :-)

Look at the Lily.
