The worst moment for the atheist is when he is really thankful and has nobody to thank. 1 Like |

Actually, they thank themselves and delight in their own achievement. |

muykem: Thank you Doctor for treating my ailment Thank you Taxi Driver for your service Thank you Caterer for the delicious meal I just ate Thank you my friend LordReed for your help during my Papa's burial last week. Thank you Waiter for the drink Thank you Police man for protecting me How difficult can this be really? Or you mean when they are feeling to thank something that didn't do anything for them and figure they should just thank the "people" that actually did something meaningful for them? 12 Likes 3 Shares |

johnydon22:I think the op was trying to say if you believed in the awe and the wonder and the mystery, the amazing design of the univers, you will be tempted to thank who ? I guess blind chance ? long time bro, trust all is well ? |

malvisguy212: Why do I need to thank anybody? Why can't I just revel in the awe and wonder? |
Re: The Worst Moment In Atheists Life. by malvisguy212: 10:47am On Oct 07, 2019 |
LordReed:so we are fortunate to experience the Awe the wonders and beauty in the univers ? we are lucky to be here!!! For billions of years, the solar system has been running in the Milky Way galaxy in an orderly manner, and with no single mistake. indeed we are lucky. |

LordReed:let me add this to your comment. since you're so concern of this animals ( which is very good of you) when next you want to buy a pet, why not ask for the pet genealogy or his offspring . how about that ? |

malvisguy212: For well established pedigrees of certain animals like horses, dogs, cats, pigs, etc, the records are kept of the forebears. What is your point? How does it relate to the subject at hand? 1 Like |

muykem:Thankful of what? In Yoruba language, if people get lucky, they simply say "Ope o!" Maybe you should find a good interpretation for "Ope o!" in your local dialect and be using it whenever you get lucky. You don't need to thank God or anything whenever u are feeling lucky. Just shout "Ope O!" |

The worst moment is when I watched my son laid down helplessly on hospital bed for days gasping for breathe until he gave up ghost. The situation makes me hate God more |
Re: The Worst Moment In Atheists Life. by LordReed(m): 11:26pm On Oct 09, 2019 |
FOLYKAZE: My condolences. That is one of the worst things for a parent to endure, I am so sorry you went through that. |

Re: The Worst Moment In Atheists Life. by GeneralShepherd(m): 6:54pm On Oct 13, 2019 |
For me when I was an atheist my worst moment was when I thought about the meaning of life. As an atheist, life has no inherent meaning just subjective meaning that fades into oblivion upon one's death. |
Re: The Worst Moment In Atheists Life. by GeneralShepherd(m): 6:56pm On Oct 13, 2019 |
frank317: Not to sound preachy or inconsiderate but it is appointed unto man to die. It hurts to loose loved ones especially kids and I'm so sorry he lost his son, however death is part of living. We are mortals, we all die. It is only a matter of when |
Re: The Worst Moment In Atheists Life. by GeneralShepherd(m): 7:00pm On Oct 13, 2019 |
LordReed: Ever wonder what the evolutionary purpose of consciousness might be ? Do we have any advantage over other animals by being self aware? Ever wonder why we are alive in a universe that is largely uninhabitable by us? Do you ponder what life means ? |
Re: The Worst Moment In Atheists Life. by LordReed(m): 7:49pm On Oct 13, 2019 |
GeneralShepherd: Better pattern recognition ensures survival. Yes we do, our tool use has helped us modify our environment. Questions of why and meaning are entirely ours to determine. No external agency is apparently available to do it for us. |
Re: The Worst Moment In Atheists Life. by LordReed(m): 7:52pm On Oct 13, 2019 |
GeneralShepherd: It still hurts and that is what matters. |
Re: The Worst Moment In Atheists Life. by GeneralShepherd(m): 8:11pm On Oct 13, 2019 |
LordReed: If meaning is entirely ours then life has no inherent objective meaning, only subjective meaning no? Remember that usually subjective meanings or perspectives only mean much to the subject of the meaning of perspective. If life has no inherent meaning, all the wonders of the universe is pointless 2 Likes |

LordReed: I lost my dad a few weeks ago , I can only imagine how it feels to loose a child. My heart goes out to him and every grieving family out there |
Re: The Worst Moment In Atheists Life. by GeneralShepherd(m): 8:18pm On Oct 13, 2019 |
LordReed: Why is our survival important to us and nature if the universe is just a cold brutal fact? Why then do humans inherent strive to live as long as possible and have offspring to continue the survival race from one generation to another? My point is that it seems like there is some bigger picture here that a naturalistic and materialistic worldview is refusing to ponder about. If life is just is. Then I argue that consciousness is an evolutionary disadvantage. Do animals ponder about existence or God? Existential depression is peculiar to humans as long as we know. So even though yes consciousness has it's advantages, existential crisis is big enough to consider it a huge disadvantage. 2 Likes |

GeneralShepherd:you have said it all. Struggling to survive so one will die again. Atheism provides no answer to why we exist or the universe exist, no scientifc experimental data or theory or even the material universe can reveal. Living by any moral code that wont benefit you is meaningless since life is about survival, if one has to kill, rape, steal or even nuke an entire country to survive, why not do it. Loving your neighbor is meaningless, animals live to survive, they dont have any moral code why should humans have moral code, if life is about survival. 1 Like |
