Default Re: The Myth of Meaning

[ QUOTE ]
that god did in fact love me .. I am granting this in the OP
HOW does that add meaning?


[/ QUOTE ]

Religions, most, claim that God loves you. That he put you here for his purpose. They do not claim they know that purpose. They claim that just the fact that you were put here for his purpose gives your life meaning. That meaning being God is usuing you for his purpose whatever it might be. For a person that seeks but cannot find a reason for his own existence, this thought that God loves you and is usuing you can be comforting and give your life meaning.
