Atheism and the Arc of Justice

That’s a bit of a caricature. Here’s how I look at prayer: https://rzim.org/a-slice-of-infinity/rebellion-or-resignation-2/

It seems to me that when there is a disaster, it’s the Christians who are on the ground early and still working late to roll back the damage. I don’t see any atheist organizations doing that.

Those concepts are so much a part of us humans, unlike the other species here. But apart from some reference point, they vanish in the ultimate heat death of this universe. In the atheist big picture, it seems to me it’s just an illusion of meaning and purpose meant to make people feel better about themselves. Like Ozymandias.

A lot of heat there, Neil, and I feel your pain, but this is really not the forum for it.
