I’m not a super religious man, though I do have a belief in something larger than us.

The other day I was thinking; we know that when those of faith are at a crossroads of some form of difficulty, that not even talking to those they know and love best can
to give them comfort, they turn to whatever God, Spirituality, religion for comfort.
Ricky, what do you and other atheists do when you feel like you are at the end of your rope and the despair is beyond anything that can be fixed by communication with other humans?
Another thing, where does love, goodness or even evil come from? Is it merely a chemical process in the brain or are their sources from another place?-

Interesting. Why so obsessed with something you don't believe in Ricky? Who are you trying to convince that God is a myth? Others or yourself.

Admitting one is related to monkeys gives me little comfort. If Darwin is correct why are there still monkeys?-

"If Darwin is correct why are there still monkeys?"

Evolution does not teach that humans evolved from present-day monkeys rather that humans and monkeys share a common ancestor that gave rise to both. New species evolve by splintering off from established ones, when populations of organisms become isolated from the main branch of their family and acquire sufficient differences to remain forever distinct. The parent species may survive indefinitely thereafter, or it may become extinct.

"Humans evolved from a lineage of upright-walking apes whose earliest fossils date from over 6 million years ago. Although early members of this lineage had chimp-sized brains, there are signs of a steady increase in brain size after about 3 million years ago."

RR poses, "If Darwin is correct why are there still monkeys"?

This is like a person wondering they have living cousins. Monkeys are our distant cousins while other apes besides ourselves are closer in relation. Neanderthals may have been 'kissing cousins'.

They turn to that morally and ethically beautiful baby of science: LSD.

Evil comes from Topeka, KS and goodness from Hershey, PA. -

I normaly talk to myself, and it's quite relaxing. After all it's the same that all people do when they pray. But I really preffer o talk to a dog, they usually put that face as if they were understanding you. They know that you feel sad and they feel sad for you and usually want to cheer you up, that's why I love dogs.
"where does love, goodness or even evil come from?"
Those are all our interpretations of certain actions. To me the invasion of Irak was evil, to some was a good thing. Some people can beat their wifes or their children badly and clami they still love them, my interpretation of what love is, is totally different from that.
