That's assuming life has to have a purpose, though. It doesn't but what you make of it. ...did you really just say that? No. They're part of what makes up life, and what makes life worth living. Isn't your god and religion just an artifical human construct? :rolleyes: Meaningless...

Living? Making the most of this life rather than living for the next? Family, friends, career, love and the pursuit of happiness?

Atheists hardly live for nothing.

Dawkins is a pre-eminent evolutionary biologist/ethologist. He is a fellow of the Royal Society. And you're saying he doesn't understand the philosophy of science?

Why do you care so much about what consenting adults do in the privacy of their own bedrooms? You may consider it a sin; they do not. Jesus, dude, get some perspective.
