As an atheist, you choose your own purpose. You make your own meaning. You select what is important to you, and then you pursue it. You plan your own legacy. This is certainly harder than going to church and living according to the teachings of your pastor, but it's more rewarding.

Atheists indeed live hopeless lives , no wonder they generally achieve so little and are also filled with so much hate and bitterness .

Most scientists in the world believe in God though , so I think only atheists should answer your questions

What you believe doesn't count into the face of Reality.
Beyond the Brain the Grey Matters is the Living Software that runs it. The software doesn't belong to this mundane level of technology.

You step out of your Body and discover that you have just undied

See what oluwaseun or Olorunseun
has turn himself into...
Romans 1:28
New Living Translation
Since they thought it foolish to acknowledge God, he abandoned them to their foolish thinking and let them do things that should never be done.

English Standard Version
And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.

Its difficult for them to admit that they indeed hopeless , so its understandable .

Bro , most atheists subscribe to nihilism - the view that life is meaningless and without purpose . Read more about this philosophical doctrine here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nihilism

Yes, atheists in a strict sense are nihilists, however I would bet that a large number are existentialists, in which we find our own meaning in life.

There's a cornucopia of evidence supporting this , but I'll give you just 5

[size=15pt]1[/size]On January 1, 2011, CNN reported:

People unaffiliated with organized religion, atheists and agnostics also report anger toward God either in the past, or anger focused on a hypothetical image - that is, what they imagined God might be like - said lead study author Julie Exline, Case Western Reserve University psychologist.In studies on college students, atheists and agnostics reported more anger at God during their lifetimes than believers

[size=15pt]2[/size] :

Nairaland atheists become apoplectic with rage anytime God is being discussed .

https://www.nairaland.com/3148752/atheists-express-rage-against-god


[size=15pt]3[/size]

99.9 percent of Nairaland atheists have not made any notable achievement :https://www.nairaland.com/3009541/negro-atheists-show-me-works

[size=15pt]4[/size]

Atheists , Agnostics and Freethinkers combined make up 10.5 percent of laureates while their imperious religious confrères make up 89.5 percent of the laureates cheesy

Wikipedia : Nobel Prize who self-identified as atheist, agnostic, freethinker or otherwise nonreligious at some point in their lives.[2] Many of these laureates were identified with a religion earlier in life. By one estimate, 10.5% of all laureates, and 35% of those in Literature, fall in this category. According to the same estimate Atheists, Agnostics, and Freethinkers have won 8.9% of the prizes in Medicine, 7.1% in Chemistry, 5.2% in Economics, 4.7% in Physics, and 3.6% in Peace

[size=15pt]5[/size] Most atheists have poor relationships with parents


The Cambridge Companion to Atheism which was edited by the atheist philosopher Michael Martin declared:

“ Continuity and discontinuity in any identity may be a function of interpersonal networks, especially involving intimate relations. Apostasy and conversion can both be seen as a rejection of parental identity and parental beliefs. It “might well be symptomatic of familial strain and dissociation... apostasy is to be viewed as a form of rebellion against parents” (Caplovitz and Sherrow, 1977:50)

The book Atheist Persona: Causes and Consequences by John J. Pasquini, Th.D. indicates that many of the prominent atheists and prominent practical atheists who had dysfunctional/absent fathers that he lists in his book also had dysfunctional/absent mothers

Due to ur experience, trying to live as an atheist, u ask, how atheists are able to live a hopeless life?!

My reply, was just to let u realise, without a belief in self(self confidence) which I perceive, u lack, no one can live without a diety, and remain sane!

No bro , deists are the ones who subscribe to existentialism - since they believe God does not intervene in the affairs of men or mould their destinies .

Yaaaaaawwwn. warris going on hia?!?
Ohhh Okkkk :O

Atheist live everyday with a goal to prove d nonexistence of God in a means to indirectly find one. That's why there are many atheists who end up converting their ownselves. They want to be free thinkers but thier biggest fear is the existence of God. They know we believers have nothing to lose if we believe and certainly there's no God and they're toasted if there is and didn't believe. I see them as hopeless people indeed jus swimming in thier own darkness

Your mindset is what makes you an atheist, you won't become one by experimentation. Not everyone is capable of becoming an atheist, and you just happen to be one.

You think atheists live without purpose, smh. How many atheists do you actually know in real life? If only you know how much "god bless you" I get in a day, you won't be spewing this trash about atheists living a hopeless life.

I almost gave up everything cause there would be no need for anything if I have no hope of an everlasting life. if I die that's all


If you can't be good to others without the promise of an everlasting life, it just shows that by default, you're not a good person.

OP you sound like you want to become an atheist again. Lol atheists or agnostics don't live a purposeless life oo you basically make a purpose out of your life. We are all basically stardust so we are one with the universe same way the universe is one with is. This is the greatest spiritual feeling anyone can ask for. It's only rational someone would want to live forever. Even christians aren't even sure of their eternal life. They always sing this world isn't they're own but when one of thier brethem dies it's a different story. The thought of heaven is beautiful though who won't like the idea. But I've come to the realisation that it's just a coping mechanism for the fear of our mortality sounds like you still need the coping mechanism a lot
