johnydon22:
some questions are just so poorly constructed, a lot of mispresentation, misrepresentations, attributing evolution to atheism, attributing science to atheism . . . Maybe you are mistaking atheist to mean scientist or philosopher. . Op learn the meaning of atheism then check how any of that your question relates to atheism

Thats not the best way to answer a question you dont know, simply say "I dont know" or something similar instead of playing about( not around) the question

dalaman:
I don't know why or how I exist. The purpose of existence is what you make of it. To you as a Christian the purpose of your existence tye way you have been programed and indoctrinated is to worship the Christian version of God and do what they tell you. To the muslim submitting to the will of Allah and being his slave is his/her purpose of existence, to the Buddisht archiving nirvana is the purpose of life. To the Hindu the purpose of life is as described by the Hindu religion. To others hedonism is the purpose of life while others see the purpose of life as serving others. Purpose is what you make of it. Life has no universal purpose. I don't believe in evolution because it doesn't provide me with the answers I need and it contains a lot of suggestions and supposition. God is a man made Idea as such it has no evidence to show it exist apart from what men chose to present.

In as much as we are on the same page, I have to remind You that evolution does not require A BELIEF. BELIEF us not required where there are proofs of concept.
Evolution simply means changes over a period of time.
That nature, or natural things evolved or change over periods of time is a FACT.
You may be confused about the matter, mechanisms or routes of such changes, adaptations or mutations. That is understandable.
I repeat. It does not require a BELIEF, especially, if you have confidence in the integrity and universality of the scientific method.

I looked real hard and none did, i really did look very hard

look at it again
question 1,2,3 and 4

dalaman:
Atheism is lack of belief in God/Gods. Atheists basically rely on science and sociology for some of the answers to the questions you posed. But atheism itself has nothing to do with anything you asked

including question 3 and 4 ?

Atheism can not tell you how DNA orAmino acids rose.Only science can give you such explanation

Does science need to explain question 3

Most times atheist accept some.of the scientific explanations because they are much more plausible than the religious explanations.

So let them answer based on their accepted explanations.

Medicis:
1. Why do we exist? 2. Why do we matter and why is human life precious? 3. How do we account for conscience? 4. Are atheists really really sure there is no God ? 5. Where did the genetic code come from? 6. How did the DNA and Amino acid arise? 7. Any strong evidence to prove there is no conscious existence after death? 8. How do we know the supernatural does not exist. Any strong scientific evidence? 9. Evolution (why did monkeys suddenly stop evolving into Human?). 10. Do atheists really have a common ancestor with MONKEYS 11. What is responsible for so much evil we have in the world today? 12. Has any atheists seen the mind? If not, is there any strong scientific evidence to show us how the mind really looks like?

1. If you're asking for a purpose, there doesn't seem to be any. 2. We don't really matter. Life is precious because of death. 3. We're working on it. 4. I'm not. 5. Same place every other thing came from. 6. Happy accident. 7. You have to first prove that there can be a bodiless consciousness. 8. How do we know that the supernatural exists? 9. Monkeys never evolved into humans. 10. Ditto. 11. Nature and human nature. 12. I haven't seen a mind. There are things that have no appearance. The mind is probably one of them.

Actually some scientific explanations are as plausible as creation myths. Various hypotheses in abiogenesis are fraught with problems many scientists admit. Accounts of how organisms and their traits evolved are just-so stories and the predictions based on the Big Bang have failed and rely on several ad-hoc explanations such exponential expansion.

Which creation myths? The big bang explains far more about the evolution of the universe than a God saying to himself let there be light( So he was living in darkness for all that while till he decided he needed light). Or some God creating 7 heavens what only believers accept by faith. Abiogenesis despite being fraught with many problems explains more about how Amino acids came about than some God speaking things into existence. You can never compare the scientific explanation to all the various creation myths we have out there. The scientific explanations no matter how fraught with assumptions and lack of details is far better than all these creation myths.

No, they aren't unless you are blinded to the facts by your bias. The scientific explanations aren't just fraught with assumptions and details, they run contrary to observed facts. If you still insist that such explanations are better than creation mysth despite their faults you aren't being reasonable.

I was the first to admit that the scientific explanations is full of suppositions and assumptions. Regardless of that, they are still more plausible than most creation myths I know. We can place them side by side and compare.

Since you first suggested it, you start.

Lets compare the big bang and what it tells us about the universe to the creation myth written in the bible.

How does the bible explain the different generations of stars for example?

The Bible doesn't mention generations of stars. Make your comparison.

That's my point exactly, the big bang despite it flaws explains so much about the universe compared to what the bible says about a God living in darkness who suddenly decided that there should be light and started creating things using words and magic without explaining how he created anything or what he used in creating anything. There is nothing to compare between the creation myth and what science says. You can bring your own comparisons.
