“A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be” Maslow
Everyone on this planet looks for meaning in life, whether a believer or an atheist. This is nothing new. But I find purpose and strength through faith. I simply cannot believe that when I die, my body rots and there is no soul. So I die as nothing in this universe. There is more to life that you can perceive and see.
Yes, you are correct. Yet, with your belief system, it dictates that if I were born in Asia, I would be Buddhist; if I were born in the Middle East, I would be muslim. Yet I am Christian, the religion that survived the most persecution in history. It began small and spread throughout the world. Thousands have died where I am today. Proclaiming the simple truth: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me John 14:6
But it is still a believe sytem; you believe nothing created something, in other words, the Big Bang. When you look at the universe, you believe it miraculously happened without divine intervention. How is it possible that one planet in our universe created the complexity of life? How do you see this without realising there is a bigger creator of life? In mortal life, some believe in Nihilism, that life has no meaning. Can you truly believe this?

@DrHayzed@WordKombo My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts, says the Lord. And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways
, and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.- Isaiah 55:8-9
If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. 1 Corinthians 13:3, "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.-Ephesians 2:8–9
