Man has been allowed to come into being and molded by the same universe that possesses the cold indifference as to the duration and quality of that existence. It is in this spirit, that it should come to no surprise that man treats man the way it does. That any man cares for any other man, at all, is something of a miracle.
Very well stated. Connecting the lack of intentional design, with the lack of imposed social responsibility is nice... Sething that nontheists often try to skirt arpund because its not very nice to consider.
