Zone1 Is Atheism Depressing?

No. That's called biology.

Using RNA while trying to prove non intelligent creation of life only proves you can make life from existing life.

so, stop using r n a and inject spiritual complexities to the mix and life will evolve ... over a million year time laps.

Not all change is metaphysical. Not all change is physical. However change is a fact.

What is depressing about Atheism?

I get to sleep late on Sundays
I get to celebrate Christmas without having to go to Church
I get to make fun of God if I feel like it
I don’t have to pray
I go ahead and eat without that annoying Grace

Depressing as fuck, but you know that.

Atheists are materialists in the sense that's that all they believe exist; the material world.

And apparently, you must be ashamed of it because you don't seem to want to admit it.

I can't speak for all atheists. The estimated figure for the number of atheists and agnostics in the world is around half a billion people. I can't speak even for one-hundredth of one percent of all atheists. I can only speak for myself. If you would like to know what and how I think, please feel free to ask me what and how I think.

If you think you can determine how and what all atheists think, please share your methodology. This should be interesting.

 

[Pisa]

No, you are trying to describe atheism as a negation. Atheists believe the only thing that exists is the material world. That's the affirmative way of describing their beliefs.

No life was created in all those experiments though.

One critical element wasn't reproduced in the experiment: time. Given enough time, primitive forms of life would probably emerge in the test tube.

However, the experiment demonstrated that the basic building blocks of life - components of proteins - could have been the result of chemical reactions among nonliving materials.

The percent of atheists worldwide is very small and declining.

What is there about being an Atheist that would be depressing?

You don't need to speak for any of them because by definition atheists are materialists.

Atheists don't believe in a spiritual world. Atheists believe in a material world.

Actually, we just believe in a world where we exist.
We live and will eventually die

No magical Great Being watching over us and promising everlasting life

Like I said... a material world; a material universe. Where all that exists is matter.

It proved no such thing.

there is not a corollary as you imply a lack of spiritual belief is a belief of material as such is obviously incorrect.

It is 100% correlated that atheism does not believe in a spiritual realm beyond the material existence.
