The absurdity of life without God may not prove that God exists, but it does show that the question of God’s existence is the most important question a person can ask. No one who truly grasps the implications of atheism can say, “Whatever!” about whether there is a God. Now when I use the word God in this context, I mean an all-powerful, perfectly good Creator of the world who offers us eternal life. If such a God does not exist, then life is absurd. That is to say, life has no ultimate meaning, value, or purpose.
