Seriously though, not all atheists are depressive. And even if the atheistic worldview is sometimes grey, would you prefer living a lie? I mean, my daughter believes there are fairies in the garden and it makes her happy but it's delusional and one certainly hopes she'll outgrow it.
qI am always amazed when atheist compare belief in God with beliefs such as fairies, spaghetti monsters etc. This sort of carciture does nothing other than red herring the discussion when it hits a little too close to home. The point of the story about Woody Allen is the same for all atheists if they were consistent. There is no epistemic foundation for meaning and purpose in the atheistic worldview.

What a schmuck that Colson is. He should at least get his facts straight. Soon-Yi was adopted by Mia Farrow.
