Questioner: "Why do you exist?" Monotheistic Religious Follower: "I'm just a random person pleasing this possible [god] that has no evidence for being there (nor not being there)."
faith is a powerful thing and im not dissing on you for it but id rather have faith in something that i find likely. false hope is also a powerful thing, except this time its not positive
And on the accident/reason thing, please understand that humans are programmed to look for patterns and reason where there is none, or where things aren't what our intuition would make us think.
We might look at this world, a world habitable for us, and think "wow we can live here perfectly, someone must have put this world here for us"
But a logical person might think for a bit and say "but wait a minute. if this earth wasn't habitable for us, then we'd all be dead, so it's survivorship bias. we are here because the earth is habitable for us, not the other way around."
