Life has no meaning or purpose. “ ‘Meaning’ and ‘purpose’ are, by definition, dependant on an intelligent being having an intent in mind. A corollary of the nonexistence of a ‘God’ is that we are here with no ‘meaning’ or
‘purpose’ to our lives,”.
Instincts, rather than God, explain humans
’ pursuits of happiness and success,
“I cannot see that human behaviour differs in any fundamental way from that of numerous species on the savannahs of Serengeti. We are all driven by our instincts to eat, drink, copulate, protect ourselves and our young, and cooperatewith others, particularly those most closely related to us, if and when it is to our mutual advantage,”
“Happiness is, I believe, best defined as satisfaction of these drives, and it is that which we all pursue.”
