The real question as I see it is do we chose to believe that life is cosmic accident or part of a design.
In my thoughts, I much prefer believing that there is a purpose in life. If I believed that this was all an accident and there was no designer/guide/deity then reproduction has been accomplished and there is no further point. Then only what is good for me and my progeny would be important.
With God, we become accountable for our actions, which gives us purpose and makes our lives part of the great plan we cannot see.
Either way it is a matter of faith as no atheist has proven God doesn't exist and no one has proven God does exist.
