How do atheists derive meaning and purpose from their existence?
Q. How do you find meaning in your life, knowing that no matter what you do, there will eventually come a day when you'll stop being able to enjoy the fruits of your labor?

A. Most people who are religion-driven cannot see the answer. Like the child of any parent, they want someone else to make the decisions for them and believe they are taken care of, eternally. The sun shines on everyone, on this culture and on others, believers and non-believers, humans and poisonous spiders. Once you can see this and the meaning of every living thing around you, you begin to get a sense of what meaning 'everyone else' is abiding by. If you refuse to see this, you will never understand. T

How did the nature and meaning of war change for Americans over the course of the 20th Century?
Q. How did the nature and meaning of war change for Americans over the course of the 20th Century? Be sure to consider the course of diplomacy, the larger social and economic climate, and particular ideological turning points.
Asked by Trooper K - Mon Dec 8 22:17:35 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. This reeks of homework. The biggest change for most Americans is exposure to the events taking place within the warzone and to the decisions being made by our leaders. WWI and WWII were just as bloody, if not more so than Vietnam and the current war. The media exposure began during the Korean war, became much more prevalent during Vietnam and is now inundating our airwaves. When we as a nation were blissfully ignorant of what was going on overseas, we were supportive of the troops and the leadership they served under. Now we are being fed a constant stream of negative images which makes it difficult to support the people who know the real reasons for being involved in the first place.
