Why Absurdism Isn’t Enough to Live a Meaningful Life

Absurdism might seem like the perfect response to a meaningless universe—but is it enough to build a thriving life on? In this powerful video, atheist spiritual director Brit Hartley breaks down why absurdism is emotionally validating but ultimately falls short as a life philosophy. From parenting and mental health to death, suffering, and moral frameworks, absurdism simply doesn’t provide the tools needed for human flourishing. It's a rebellious response to the void—but rebellion alone isn’t a system. Hartley unpacks 10 reasons absurdism fails as a complete worldview: it lacks emotional scaffolding for children, offers no path through deep suffering, provides no moral framework, and doesn’t help with ambition, purpose, or connection. Drawing from her work in nihilism coaching and existential healing, Brit shares how philosophies like Buddhism, stoicism, secular humanism, and existentialism can provide what absurdism can’t: a full emotional and ethical toolkit for navigating the harsh truths of life without turning away.
