Atheism is not a logical conclusion, it's a psychological condition and the reason why it always leads to depression. The good news is that in reality, you are more than a meaningless bag of chemicals. Your existence is more incredible and beyond anything you could possibly imagine. Even what we know is incredible if it were not the fact that we have pictures of it. Right now a giant Ocean Cruise Liner with 3,000 passengers is upside down navigating through the ocean which covers this giant globe we call "Earth" which happens to "float" in a nothingness we call "space".
300 years from now when you are a pile of dust and bones, you will either be in union with the Creator of this incredible existence we all share, or separated from Him in eternity. To miss the purpose of our existence is the biggest tragedy that could befall a human being..

"Atheism is not a logical conclusion,"
Uh, start again.
"it's a psychological condition and the reason why it always leads to depression."
Huh? Do you have some source you can cite about that depression assertion?
And, what IS the reason. With your poor sentence construction you have failed to mention the reason.
Also, just because Xian beliefs make you happy, doesn't mean that your beliefs are true and not delusions.
"The good news is that in reality, you are more than a meaningless bag of chemicals."
Thank you, I know that.
"Your existence is more incredible and beyond anything you could possibly imagine."
Thanks again, but I think I can imagine how wonderful life can be.
"Even what we know is incredible if it were not the fact that we have pictures of it."
What the heck does that mean?
"Right now a giant Ocean Cruise Liner with 3,000 passengers is upside down navigating through the ocean which covers this giant globe we call "Earth" which happens to "float" in a nothingness we call "space"."
You are seriously deluded. Seek professional psychiatric treatment immediately.
"300 years from now when you are a pile of dust and bones, you will either be in union with the Creator of this incredible existence we all share, or separated from Him in eternity."
We will all be just dust and/or bones. As God is a fiction, no one will be in union with him.
"To miss the purpose of our existence is the biggest tragedy that could befall a human being.."
As God is a fiction, he does not give anything. Your life has the meaning and purpose YOU give it. Stop relying on fairy tales. Grow up and put some real meaning to you life.
Your existence is more incredible and beyond anything you could possibly imagine.
Exactly. The garden is beautiful without us needing to imagine that there are sky fairies in it. (props to Carl Sagan).
Too bad most of the rest of this post is bullshit. He got about 2 sentences right, this one and the one before it.

Atheism is logical. It is not a psychological condition and it does not always lead to depression. Three for three.

You are right but not in the way you mean.
Your existence is more incredible and beyond anything you could possibly imagine.
Yet you continue to minimize the wonder of it all by putting it down to supernatural magic.
Even what we know is incredible if it were not the fact that we have pictures of it.
If we did not have the pictures it would be incredible? WTF?

Make up your mind. Either after death there is a nothingness in the space that the NASA has positively proved, as you remark, or there is Heaven, either our brain is a combination of chemicals or something controlled by God. Either you go to Heaven immediately or never. What are 300 years, after all?, why that number?. If there is a God we are going to encounter after death, it´s for everyone. The meaning of nothing after death doesn´t provoke anguish. If there is nothing, there is nothing, people don´t worry if they cease to exist. If there is, Jesus was very clear that we´re going there according to our merits, not on whether we blindly believe on him or not.
I think the Giant Ocean Cruise Liner being upside down means that it's on the other side of the Earth from Gab. She is confusing her subjective experience of up and down with an objective perspective of up and down. The cruise liner is upside down relative to her position, but the cruise liner and its passengers have their own ideas and observations of gravity.

Repeat after me: The Poseidon Adventure was a 1970's classic adventure movie, horribly remade in 2005 and 2006.
Or, are you talking about ships that are sailing on the other side of the Earth? Or maybe... THE UPSIDE DOWN LINER IS CARRYING ALL THOSE UPSIDE PEOPLE FROM 2001 A SPACE ODDESSY! (because capslock makes the argument trustworthy)
"Atheism is not a logical conclusion"
This would be where you show how atheism is illogical. You know, saying something is wrong because you dislike the consequences is a fallacy.
Saying that all atheists suffer from depresion is a false assertion,and still doesn't prove your point.
@Gab
Your existence is more incredible and beyond anything you could possibly imagine.
But you can, because you have much better imagination? I think I have a much more accurate image of our existence than you do.
<nitpick>
@GabRight now a giant Ocean Cruise Liner with 3,000 passengers is upside down navigating through the ocean
I don't think they navigate well upside down. Down means toward the center of gravity, if you didn't know.
@Gabwhich covers this giant globe we call "Earth" which happens to "float" in a nothingness we call "space".
It doesn't float. It's falling freely.
</nitpick>
@GabTo miss the purpose of our existence is the biggest tragedy that could befall a human being..
The purpose of our existence is to worry what happens to us after it has ended? Right, the answer is not even nothing, it's a meaningless question, as we do not exist at that point. What happens to X if there is no X? What kind of events are recorded when the camera isn't on? Maybe it isn't soothing, but it's true. No need to worry anymore.
I'm with Chan on the upside down ocean cruise liner thing: she simply means that it is on the other side of the globe, and thus upside down in her perspective.
Atheism is not a logical conclusion, it's a psychological condition and the reason why it always leads to depression.
Or maybe it just happens that both depression and atheism are more frequent among educated, high-intelligence people, ever thought of that?
The good news is that in reality, you are more than a meaningless bag of chemicals.
True, we are self-conscious bag of chemicals. On a side note, your sky-daddy did nothing for my OCD, while chemicals (anti-depressants, more precisely) got it more or less under control. Meaningless material world one, God zero.

So shipbuilding and gravity are all that it takes to amaze you?
I need to start a cult that teaches that people go to the Big Cruise Liner in the Sky when they die. I, Fearless Leader, get the presidential suite, and my closest chosen followers (i.e. anyone who pays me $1000) gets to travel first-class. Everyone else in the cult would have normal accomodations, and the unbelievers would get pushed overboard.
Even what we know is incredible if it were not the fact that we have pictures of it.
Sidestepping the perilous grammar here, I think this means 'incredible' in the literal sense.
That is, if someone told us about it, we wouldn't believe it, and the only reason we can believe it is because there are pictures of it.
That doesn't make it particularly right, but at least it's a bit more understandable.

The Earth is round, and orbits the sun.
I spoke to my 4 year old, and he thinks that's weird too,
therefore JESUS!
Yeah, well done mate that's the plot of the poseidon adventure, not real life.
You are made of fail and lose
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
