Re: The Myth of Meaning
[ QUOTE ]
It's only my buying into IT's story.......that brings 'meaning'
[/ QUOTE ]
Of course. What is belief in a God? It is accepting without proof. That's understood. If you can't grasp that then you are the one that doesn't understand not the theists. The meaning they speak of comes from YOU accepting God. They do not say that your life has meaning if you do not accept God only if you do. It is and always has been and always will be up to you to accept God without proof for you to gain his love. The theist claims that by doing this your life will take on new meaning. I believe that I finally realize what it is you were asking. Meaning comes from your action not an action of God. Just to keep things straight. I am an atheist but I do believe that i understand these claims made by believers. I just do not accept them.
