When it’s all said and done, evos and science offer nothing of lasting value to life or the world or the universe. It’s a barren, meaningless, purposeless existence that amounts to dust in the wind.
Everything is just the result of chance and accident, our thoughts and emotions nothing more than a bunch of chemical reactions. And yet they deride and ridicule believers, which is ludicrous, as all they have to say amounts to nothing in the long run. So their derision and mockery is as meaningless as their existence.
Ecclesiastes 1
12 I, the Teacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13 I devoted myself to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven. What a heavy burden God has laid on men! 14 I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
15 What is twisted cannot be straightened;
what is lacking cannot be counted.
16 I thought to myself, “Look, I have grown and increased in wisdom more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me; I have experienced much of wisdom and knowledge.” 17 Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, and also of madness and folly, but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind.
To do otherwise is to claim that you know what this world is all about.
Science is not about making nice stories that make one feel good. Science makes working models. And this world is not really that nice outside the safe confines of the artificial environment we live in.

I don't anyone can say that for certain. But we also can't say for certain what is this a result of and for what purpose if any.
And yet they deride and ridicule believers, which is ludicrous, as all they have to say amounts to nothing in the long run. So their derision and mockery is as meaningless as their existence.
No one ridicules believers. However, they paint themselves into a corner when they make statements of faith as if they were statements of fact.
