If the new atheists are correct, then everyday we live we're just cultivating worm food. We have nothing but suffering and death to look forward to. Having children is an act of cruelty and suicide is a perfectly reasonable solution to life's problems. Acquisition of material wealth, and the pursuit of pleasure are our sole motivating factors, and selfless acts are foolish.
On the other hand, I don't think it's unreasonable to believe in a created universe. I think it's much more likely that an entity beyond our comprehension created all that exists, and put us where we are because it's precisely where we belong. I think that is much more logical than the idea that the universe simply began to exist from nothing, with no driving force outside of itself, and for no purpose.
