It is strange to me that anyone believes life is meaningless
by ScrvpvlvsApr 26, 2012 6:45 AM–It is strange to me that anyone believes life is meaningless unless some supernatural being has his own plan for us. That seems to unfairly and pointlessly demean our own plans for ourselves and for our families and community. Why should a supernatural plan give meaning but a natural plan be incapable of giving meaning to life?
