I think we all have our own belief system that comforts us when we need it. Just because someone thinks God doesn't exist doesn't make it so; and thinking God does exist doesn't make it so, either. We believe what we believe, and our beliefs can change over a lifetime. I think life has a purpose for each of us; we may never know what it is, but if we're still upright and breathing then we haven't met our purpose(s) yet.
