For what reason do you endure?

Is it not pointless?

As the Existentialists/Absurdists maintained: there is no point to Life - it is, merely, what we make of it.

@ArtieKat What do we make of it? There is no meaning in what we make of it. Meaning has to come from a higher being. If God is absent, we have no purpose. We can do what we want. Creating our own meaning does not make it meaning. It is fantasy.

@degraded Speak for yourself. My life has meaning without your god or any of the other thousands of deities people have worshipped. Where did my meaning originate? From me!!

@degraded

If God is absent, we have no purpose

and what is our purpose if your god is present?
