Without a Creator, life is meaningless.
We are then no more than a chance of nothing, created by nothing, apparently created out of nothing and created for no purpose whatsoever and there is no reason for any morality at all. Our existence would be nothing more than chance. We’re born. we live. we die. and that is all.
How utterly hopeless.
I can’t believe that.
I’ve seen and know the Creator
LOL
woollyone: “Without a Creator, life is meaningless.”
Agreed. Most people don’t give serious thought to it, but a life without God is ultimately meaningless. No matter what you do, it has no meaning outside of your own selfish existence. No matter how you strive, whatever you build or create, it all comes to nothing in the end. Even the human race, without God, is hopelessly doomed, a dead end. Whether you or anyone else lives or dies, it matters not.
Conservatives who don’t believe in God and don’t respect Christians should at least give some serious thought as to whether or not Christianity is, on the whole, a social good or a social bad. In my opinion, the answer is obvious.
If Christianity is a social good, then it at least deserves respect and support from non-believing conservatives. Most conservatives used to understand this. Unfortunately, many people, even FReepers, are now hostile to Christianity (to the detriment of society).
That's your problem. You may not like the implications of evolution, but facts don't change just because we don't like their implications. Personally, I don't find my life meaningless at all, but my own sense of purpose has nothing to do with observed reality.
