Well, I've been all over Ohio State's campus and I can't think of what building they're talking about.

The first half sounds made up. I think the people who commissioned the building might have had something to say about something designed that way before it was built.
The second part is a strawman argument. an example that would be more accurate (IMHO) would be to drive down the highway at 20 mph because someone has told you that there is an invisible truck in front of you.
There is no purpose to life, other than to make more life. That is reality. That does not mean that I can not find a purpose for my life.
I can see quite clearly whether ther is a truck on the road. I can hear it, if it needs a tune up I can smell it. Any time that god wants to give us some compelling evidence of his existence I will start acknowledging his existence. Until then he has less evidence than dragons, mermaids and unicorns. Or do you claim I should believe in those too?

Wow I have just seen the light I think I will follow the Baghavad Ghita now because of this video (Baghavad Ghita is the Hindu holy book, would make a great foundation and is the foundation for most of Abrahamic religion as well)
But I still am an atheist...My foundation is doing good to others not stealing not lying not harming my body and not killing (not even animals) Coincidently these are not Christian values but Humanitarian common sense.

Unconvincing.
In art, we look for the meaning beneath the obvious to try and understand the thought process of the creator, but that's because we know there IS / WAS a creator.
There is no compelling reason to believe the universe was created, created for us, or that it has a purpose. This is just Christians arrogantly thinking they are somehow special amidst the trillion, trillion other ordinary things that exist.

I think Christians are nuts.
You have to make your own purpose in life, there is no one answer that works for everyone.
