That is the point. Why would a human beings life be pointless without God if God's life isn't pointless with another God.

Of course it is.
Why else would we be here other than the product of reproduction?
All life is is animated matter.
Actions and reactions between atoms. The exact same forces that drive the rest of the universe.
Nothing special. All of the elements of your body can be found in the earth.
What?
Life would be pointless if there was in fact a magic fairy castle after death-- Because then what reason have you to live but to die and go there?
Life has no universal meaning so yes, I for one believe that are lives are pointless. I also believe that meaning is something that the individual defines for oneself. His or her driving force comes from one's own desires. No one group can say this or this is the meaning of life, because they'd be wrong.
So you and i are no different than a mushroom? As to all the other creatures, they don't have souls, which u've already stated don't exist. Our souls are what continues on after our death
If its universal its not subjective. 1+1 will always equal 2 it's universal.
1. Fungi are a long way off. So no not exactly.
And how do you know they "have no soul". That makes no sense. If these "souls" did exist-- Then why not all living things have one?
That said, life has no concrete meaning.
2. But there is no universal point is what I had stated before :roll:
What you see as meaningful is not what someone else may see as meaningful.
Ok then lets change fungi to Chimps. As to why other things don't have souls there is no answer to that question that i or any other human could give other than that is the way god made it(which btw sucks as an answer)
2. what i see as meaningful doesnt have to be what others see as meaningful. If its universal you can still choose not to acknowledge that it exists, but by doing so wouldnt change its universality. Building off my other example, you can choose not to believe that 1+1=2 but that doesnt change that it does now and it always will
