    Did I say that since atheists have no meaning in life therefore worshipping God is the meaning? No I didn't

    Those were responses to attacks against me of which you did not demonstrate anything, you accused me And that isn't half my post No, I showed why if by meaning we mean anything at all, then it must be "universal" Because if you say that the meaning of life is what you make of it, then any...

    yea Yeah, that's a different debate, we aren't getting into that here "man made principles" Please show what "man-made principles" that I'm using No, in that post I accurately said what moral relativism and despite your handwaving I showed how moral relativism and nihilism are different in...

    Are you unable to actually quote which parts of my post who are responding to? You are firing blindly and no one knows which target you're aiming at. Oh wow how convenient that I always make circular arguments, and it happens all the time! Yeah how about you demonstrate my circularity...

    Well that wasn't my reasoning process, my argument didn't even try to claim that the meaning of life is to worship God, lol. I just said, "my answer to the question is worshipping God", I didn't say, "due to what I said above, therefore the meaning of life is to worship God". Sure an atheist...

    Oh please I'm using it to show that if you say that anything goes, then everything is equally valid, and thus equally valuable. So its equally valid to be a hedonist, or to be a psychopath, or to be Hitler, or to Mother Teresa, at least, according to the person who says, "the meaning of...

    It would be nice that you quoted where you're responding to so I can know what you're saying No it isn't What makes you say it is extreme? You say, "it is by no means logical", what does that even mean? Of course no one would say the bananas statement, showing that there must be...

    Says who? What do you say about the people who do have a concrete universal meaning of life? Thank you for acknowledging and supporting my point then, on atheism, there is no universal standard for anything, so anyone's "meaning" goes, and if that is the case, then there is no meaning at all...

    No, that is really not true, just as I said, if someone asks someone what a car is for, and that person says, "to cook KFC", then this person is mentally handicapped, this is because we already know what a car is for. Moreover you have not even touched the actual point of using the analogy...

    Does God exist?

    Can you please expand on point (1) and point (2), and explain your terms? It seems this argument can be translated into: \\ $1. It cannot be the case that nothing existed, since our Universe exists$ \\ \\ $2. The Universe began to exist, so there was a state of affairs in which the Universe...

    Like I said, if you do not restrict what a meaning is, then your meaning becomes meaningless. So if you say, that the "purpose of fire is whatever you want", then someone can say, "the purpose of fire is so I can dive underwater and fish for massive pearls", point being that the latter's...

    Well that's completely false Science is a very limited discipline and in fact cannot answer basic questions of even a child. Science cannot tell us what is right or wrong, science cannot tell us about the purposes of anything. This misses the point, *how* people get their meaning of life is...

    No, an analogy is there to explain the point and make it obvious. When anyone thinks of what cars are for, anyone who knows what "car" the word, means, knows that they are there to go places, if you say, "no its not people can make their own meanings", then I say that you can't make your own...

    Oh come on, even car collectors know that although cars have multiple purposes, its primary purpose is to go places, this is not in dispute, seeking to tear apart an analogy does you no good, the analogy is there only to explain the fact. Does the meaning of life have to have only 1 answer? No...

    But I'm saying that 'meaning' must be universal or at least somewhat so if it is to have any weight at all. So if you say, "the meaning of life according to me is to seek pleasure", then really what you're saying is "my goal in life is to seek pleasure", but this is an not a good answer to the...

    What I'm saying is that if an atheist says: "Murder is wrong", she isn't wrong, but I say that she is not justified in believing that. Reason being is that if I probe this belief, and I say, "what makes murder wrong", either she will say, "it just is wrong", or she will give a reason. If she...
