>>23404961>Atheism, the concept, asserts nothing except that god is not real.yeah & all other spiritual things, stuff you cannot perceive with your senses are assumed to not exist either. many things can be derived from that initial assertion. after death there is nothing, thus all considerations for a world after your demise must be irrational. if you do chose to care for your fellow people & do prepare the world for a better future that is merely your evolved social instincs compelling you to do so in order to upkeep humanity, but still an irrational reflex, that does not benefit you in any way but since humanity survived with individuals exhibiting such behaviour for generations thats just hardwired into you. i told you, materialism is highly sobering & cruel in a way. perhaps even religiosity & the belief in an afterlife compells people to be better morally, its just another of those instincts that help humanity survive, with no basis in reality but that just makes mankinds ball rolling. whatever helps i guess.
