What does classical/traditional theism reinforce about the significance of existence, life?
Part I of II
Classical/traditional theism expands upon the magnitude of existence.
Now life goes beyond the universe and into eternity.
•
Atheism forces one to view the significance of life in terms of time and in terms of our physical universe.
This places a limit on the significance of life.
Classical/traditional theism expands our significance into eternity but shuts the door on a portion of eternity, for we exist not within the Causative Force but outside Her.
This outside existence limits us, for under this viewpoint, we are not capable of being a significant contributor to the ultimate being we envision.
This expansion of our significance beyond our universe and into eternity has done wonderful things in terms of the value we place on human life.
