About This Quote

If a reasoned creator set the stars in their place then we must be capable of understanding them - we must also be creatures of reason, of order! The thing is, if a creator created everything, then everything should have a reason to exist. This doesn’t seem to be the case. In fact, there are many things that don’t have any purpose. That is to say that the world as we know it is just a bunch of random mess that could have been anything at all.

In other words, this world seems chaotic and random. After all, what is the meaning of life without purpose?
