> By my observations, people perceive that life has and should have meaning. They feel an inner drive for significance, and to find purpose.
I agree, I feel inner drive, and it's explainable with subjectivism.
> Even in science we look for meaningful cause and effect, not meaningless c&e.
So what? Nothing to do with objectivity.
> We have an unshakeable sense of right and wrong, of fairness, of joy and despair.
No we don't. Not everyone does, and hardly anyone who does agrees on everything about right and wrong, gains joy or suffers despair from the same, or even similar things. This is also explainable with atheism and subjectivism.
> We live by causality, information, rationality, and intelligence. We see a world of beauty, complexity, and incredible coordination amidst the "chaos".
Give examples please. You're just asserting things. What incredible coordination, and what chaos?
> To say that all of this has come about by chance to me doesn't connect with reality. To say that value is only imputed and opinionated, TO ME, doesn't make sense. I don't see, in science, information coming from anything but an intelligent source. I don't see, in real life, personality coming from impersonal chance, meaning coming from chemicals, and the kind of purpose I see inside people stemming from ascriptive opinion.
No one cares if you don't see it that way. You're not making a convincing argument. It's all appeals to intuition and appeals to experience. Nothing convincing at all.
> By my observations and thought, it makes far more sense that personality comes from the personal, information comes from intelligence, morality comes from an integral moral source (just as forces in the universe come from core principles), purpose comes from an inherent teleology, and goodness and evil can only truly exist if there is an objective reference point. To me, that makes sense.
That's nice, but if this is all you're going to do, then we're wasting time. It may be nice to simply imagine that the world is this way, but you've given me no piece of information that I can't explain without the assumption of a god.
