“The existentialist finds it extremely embarrassing that God does not exist, for there disappears with Him all possibility of finding values in an intelligible heaven. Everything is indeed permitted if God does not exist, and man is in consequence forlorn, for he cannot find anything to depend on within or without himself.” Jean-Paul Sartre.
He couldn’t have been more correct.
According to fools:
We all come from nothing and are headed to nothing.
We have no inherent destiny
We have no inherent purpose
We have no inherent reason for our existence
We have no inherent meaning
The universe and everything in it is an accident
With no purpose comes no duty.
With no purpose comes no value
With no future comes no worth
Fools mock Christians who, the fools say, invent a "sky daddy." And then the fool goes right out and invents meaning and purpose and value for h/herself as though that should count for something.
A fool can of course claim x amount of worth for himself. But your secular neighbour can say you have no worth and in a secular world your neighbour will be just as correct as you are.
As is clearly seen in things like the Oscar Awards and other entertainment celebrations:
. Based on the value system of fools, human kind elevates the body and degrades the soul.
. Based on the value system of fools, human kind idolises the outside while polluting the heart.

Are you just reprinting posts from your old site replacing 'atheists' with 'fools'?
