Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Atheists search for meaning in life through their work and relationships with others.It is important for agnostics to discover meaning in what they do or how they live because they find no ultimate meaning for the way things are.They believe that we,as people,bring meaning to what we do.A Buddhist turns inward,valuing self-control,whereas a Christian looks to the love of God to provide enlightenment and direction in life.
