As an Atheist, I am often puzzled by the theist view that the Meaning of Life comes only from God. It seems very narrow, bleak, and heavy handed.

Do you find value in discussion of the Meaning of Life?
What do you think the meaning is?
What value do you think knowing the Meaning of Life brings?

    Personally, the meaning of life is the one hard coded into nature. Survive and reproduce.

    What makes us “sentient” is that we can ignore that and choose our own, or none at all.

      I have often used this one. The drive to replicate is often strong. Replicate, then ensure they are successful. Then work for everyone’s success. (With freedom to ignore or reorder based on current events.)
