Logic in an atheistic worldview

[ QUOTE ]
atheism is a hope that we are insignifficant, purposeless beings that are going to bite the dust soon enough.

This is catagorially false. Atheism has nothing to do with "hope" for anything. It's simply the the lack in any belief in a specific supernatural explanation for the universe.

Let me put it this way, I don't think Christianity is a reasonable explanation for the universe. Furthermore, I have never come across any supernatural belief system that is either. All atheists feel this way and this is what makes us atheists. Nothing more.
