This is one reason why I can't stand hn. Edgelord nihilistic comments that say nothing matters and take everything for granted get up-voted while credible and rational statements about God get down-voted.

That is an incredibly insulting comment. I am married, two children, have lead a fantastic fulfilling life. Just because I don't believe the Flying Spaghetti Monster created the universe doesn't mean I am an "Edgelord".

Remember the phrase, you also don't believe in God. There are hundreds of gods you don't believe in.

Bringing up the Flying Spaghetti Monster does make you an edgelord though.
Because it reminds you that your specific deity is just as ridiculous?
Which deities don't you believe in? I don't believe in all of them. Presumably you don't believe in almost all of them?
What? What is rational about faith-based comments?

Literally nothing is rational about that. It's also just flat out off-topic.
