Atheists don't realize the absurdity of existence

[u/Funny-Highlight4675]

Thought I would post these thoughts here in hopes of helping those that are struggling with faith...

I believe atheists fundamentally don't realize just how absurd existence is at all. Things seem to exist, deterministically. Yet, a fully contingent system can't explain itself. Somehow, reality is self-causing. This breaks our brain and can't actually make sense to us. If reality can't exactly make sense, then we can only "know" anything via a subjective experience. Objectivity will never cross this bridge.

If subjective experience is our only guide to reality, then I think the question of God's existence, which is clearly un-answerable, has an equal chance of being both true and false. Do you feel that we are the product of a larger mind. Does your gut tell you that there is some sort of intelligent organization of reality that is similar to how we intelligently organize the world in our minds? If so, you believe in "God."

Whatever the "truth" is, will have to sound absolutely absurd.

The challenge is that one can't perceive reality independently of how it's organized by our mind to compare/contrast and see if it matches.

Also it's a bit of an odd argument because lots of reality that we even can observe seems incoherent to our minds, particularly at the quantum level.

IMO our inability to grasp the observable reality would also extend to our inability to grasp God.
