Atheist Comedy - The Meaning of Life

Fun fact #1: I had trouble uploading this video (about the "meaning of life"); for some reason, it froze at 42%. Tell me that doesn't freak you out (for those of you who don't know why it should freak you out, watch "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"). Fun fact #2: Edward Cullen is in this video. Can you find him? I was going to do a Twilight spoof, but gave up on it. Still, I thought it would be funny to reuse the characters from it.



Most religions scoff at what they have deemed as the "atheistic worldview" (what they think atheists think) because they think it has no "meaning". Well, I've heard religious people describe what they believe to be the meaning of our lives...and I find it utterly demeaning and pathetic: to honor an egomaniac who created us just to thank, praise, and love Him - or else?! REAL love is unconditional. And when someone is requested to praise, it is meaningless, disingenuous. Could they not even dream up a god who wasn't bound by the most petty of human emotions: arrogance, jealousy, anger, etc...basically, an attention whore?
