An honest question to those that say life has no purpose:

What would you give as a reason for not doing awful crimes such as rape or murder if life ultimately has no purpose?


We are sympathetic by nature. Committing such actions would obviously make us feel bad about ourselves and for the victim(s). 

 

 

What a weird question.

But there are genetic deficiencies all of the time that cause people to have a lack of sympathy for others. What makes those atrocities not okay if there's no reason to hold back? Why do we grieve over awful things that have no real meaning?

Seems you are getting a little bit closer.

If people already knew(had a 100%proof) that there is a creator they wouldn't behave as they do,because they would manipulate themselve to get to paradise/nirvana.

As long as you don't know for sure what will be when you are gone you are free to decide to choose between righf or wrong without being manipulated by trying to achieve a reward.

As the universe had proven that there is always order out of chaos(galaxies,stars,planets out of dust,and you will find  the same pattern on planet earth,in life )there is also order that drives humanity-we call it reason.

proof?You wouldn't even ask your question you are asking.You 'd be just trying to satisfy your ego,without ever thinking about answearing this thread.

This doesn't answer why humans are morally obligated to follow reason and order without any meaning. As for the bolded, right and wrong being defined as "reason" is just a change in the terms, and again, never answers why there is an obligaton to follow the "order" precieved in the universe.

Correct me if I'm misinterpreting what you're saying...
