Assume for a second that the universe is “pointless” and there is no “meaning of life”. Would you rather accept the truth or live in a delusion?
That would be impossible. The truth has a point. If the universe is pointless and “has no meaning”, then you couldn’t trust your own conclusion about anything.
Nonsense. True is or isn't. It is objective. "Points" require value judgments and are subjective. The inability to distinguish between consensual reality and personal reality permeates creationist/ID arguments.
