What boxcar is asserting is an appeal to consequences, i.e., if x is not true then there are negative outcomes, ergo, x must be true.
Yeah...the truth does hurt...a lot. The fact of the matter is that in the scheme of atheistic naturalism/materialism/evolution, there can be no objective meaning to life whatsoever. At best, all you and your ilk can do is fantasize real meaning. Your life sir has about as much meaning as the rock from which you evolved. (With respect to origins, you do believe in abiogenisis, right?)
