[QUOTE="HenryM, post: 71902425, member: 393731"] Hedonism - the ethical theory that pleasure (in the sense of the satisfaction of desires) is the highest good and proper aim of human life. That's exactly what atheism provides as fundamental worldview. It is the only thing that makes sense in a short existence that comes from nothing, by chance, going back to nothing. It's just that different people have different desires and goals. Atheist can say that evolution evolved empathy and love, as poster comana recently wrote here, but not all people live their life by being highly empahtic and loving, so "evolution" obviously provided other states too. Personally fulfilling one's own state of being, articulated through personal desires and goals, is the highest good and proper aim of human life. That's basically, or literally, hedonism. In universe created by God it is not about fullfiling "personal desire" but God's purpose. And Bible doesn't in any shape or form reveal that God's purpose for creation is to have people live out "their own personal desires". [/QUOTE]
