Why is that "truth"?
Just because there is no divine origin to a meaning it doesn't follow that there is no meaning. The gist of existentialism is exactly that we create our own meanings independent of the gods,--even if they exist.
If you are right that atheism is nihilism then it is untenable. To quote Nietzsche, we have art so that we don't die of the truth.
