Default Re: Logic in an atheistic worldview

[ QUOTE ]

In what sense is the universe "irrational" and what "atheist philosophers" say that it is?


[/ QUOTE ]

Most, if not all, existentialist philosophers. It is irrational if there is no purpose or meaning to it, if it is just the accidental twitch in cosmic nothingness. Many responses stated an inanimate object can't be irrational and no amount of explaining would move them.

The real kicker is when one or two seem to agree but then say something like "Why does the universe have to have meaning?".
