I'm a Buddhist but my husband is an atheist and I would say that he lives everyday like it was his last. He's kind, compassionate, concerned about the suffering of others, open-minded, intelligent, non-judgmental, accepts that I have spiritual beliefs, is a wonderful father, loving and just an all around great human being. That's a small version of the 'tea pot atheist' he is.

The point of life is to live.
Live until you can't.
Make as many memories as you can.
Be known.
Do something great.
Have children.
Marry off the children.
Have Grand-children and Great Grand-children.
Die old and wrinkled with the person you love buy your side.
Then your purpose is to never be forgotten.

to live is to love to breath to touch the one you cherish everyday and realize that every second of life is worth living, there is no chemical reaction you are the chemical and your reacting to your own depression which is you life....

To reproduce.
Did you mean *human* living? How, exactly does one feed a chemical reaction?
I suppose my answer doesn't matter, I'm not an atheist, I'm a biologist. (Not that the two are always found apart.)

To know the life within, with which body is live.
Till that is known craving for the purpose continues.

Life is a delight. There is music and laughter and love and friendship and beauty.
Life is a delight even for those who don't believe in an afterlife.

Inevitably. IT is a shadow, a small grey cloud, a dirty tissue waiting for incineration. It doesn’t think it parodies and impersonates and on IT’s skin lies mould.
