One thing I've never understood about atheists is that the majority of them have this idea in their head that life is horrible and we're only alive simply because we have to be. Well, if you have that attitude, what good are you doing by fucking and making more humans to live in this fucked up world? isn't it a bit selfish of you to do that to another human being?

 

Humans have been doing the horizontal tango long before religion was even thought about. In fact, we've been doing it way before there were even modern humans around.

If it wasn't for that, we wouldn't be around today.

Why does life even have to have meaning in order for someone to be happy?

It doesn't, I'm just speaking in terms of those people with that attitude. It seems like all they want to do is complain about the problems we face everyday in our lives, but then they add to them by making more babies. It doesn't make sense.

I don't think my life has any REAL purpose. Fate is stupid, as is destiny. Things don't "happen for a reason" and anything and everything that happens in your life is a mixture of effort and luck (or I guess random chance would be a better word). Based on that, I'm just going to do what I'm good at and what brings me fulfillment, just like everyone else in the world.
