It's a total cop-out.
I mean, this is the scenario humans are faced with:
- We exist.
- Why do we exist?
- How do we exist?
What do atheists do? They answer these questions at a level one does not expect (or should not expect) in normal humans.
Why do we exist? "We just do."
How do we exist? "We just do." (It may have been an accident, at that.)
That's such a fundamentalist way to think. They decide what they want to believe and then close their minds to the questions that challenge them.
The thing is, why don't just exist. Had we been matter of the simplest form imaginable, perhaps the first answer would be feasible. But still the second would not.
Of course, we aren't dry matter. Which doesn't matter to atheists. If we as humans have no plan or purpose, we might as well have been pure matter.
To believe in a physical world alone is ludicrous.
How does a search for meaning even being to formulate itself without the existence of 'meaning' itself?
