>>13091566Life is not eternal. Man's existence is contingent. If you say that the universe is an accident and our existence is an accident, you rob yourself of all knowledge and purpose. What knowledge or purpose could there be in an accidental universe with accidental people?
You can say,
>I create my own purpose and I choose to believe that my knowledge is genuineBut all you're doing by saying that is expressing your feelings. You don't really know, you're just CHOOSING to believe because you prefer to, because it comforts you.
Without the eternal, without a divine mind, there is can be no knowledge or purpose. Only nihilism, and subjective personal feelings.
