Is it true life has no meaning to it if there is no God?

    and what is the meaning of life with a god?

    Live your life just so you can focus on making it to the next?

    Then to only worship and egocentric divinity with a bunch of "Saved" criminals for the rest of eternity?

    At least without a god we give our lives meaning, be thankful for that, because you are free, not a slave to religion.

    No. Atheism is purely a lack of belief in deities. Issues like the meaning of life are questions of philosophy independent of that one belief. Nihilism, the philosophy that everything has no meaning, is just one of the many ideas a person can ascribe to even if they don't believe in a god.

    If there is no God, there is no life. So the question would be moot.

    Ah, the old thinking that the concept of a god giving meaning to life, somehow makes god real. A god existing in turn gives meaning to life, therefore a god must/has to exist. I find it funny that people actually think this concept proves god.

    Well I have to be honest but yeah, I believe life has no meaning.We are just here for no purpose.No point of anything in life. We just live to die.

    You can answer that yourself. Just assume there is no God for a moment. Are there still things you want out of life? For pretty much everyone I've ever met, the answer has been yes.

    There wouldn't be any life is there was no God......God is the creator of all things.
