没有上帝,人生有何意义?
The Meaning of Life Without God
核心论证 Core Argument
如果自然主义是正确的——宇宙只是无目的的物质和能量的运动——那么人类生命在宇宙层面上没有客观意义、价值或目的。每个人最终都会死去,人类最终会灭绝,宇宙最终会达到热寂。在这样的框架下,你所做的一切最终都将归于虚无。无神论哲学家如加缪、萨特、尼采都诚实地面对了这个问题。萨特说存在先于本质,人必须自己创造意义。但自我创造的意义是主观的幻觉,不是真正发现的客观意义。基督教宣告:你是被一位爱你的上帝有目的地创造的,你的生命有永恒的意义——不是你赋予自己的,而是造物主赋予的。
If naturalism is correct — the universe is merely purposeless motion of matter and energy — then human life has no objective meaning, value, or purpose at the cosmic level. Everyone eventually dies, humanity will eventually go extinct, the universe will eventually reach heat death. In this framework, everything you do ultimately amounts to nothing. Atheist philosophers like Camus, Sartre, and Nietzsche honestly confronted this. Sartre said existence precedes essence; humans must create their own meaning. But self-created meaning is subjective illusion, not genuinely discovered objective meaning. Christianity proclaims: you were purposefully created by a God who loves you; your life has eternal meaning — not self-assigned but Creator-given.
