Not to say the new gang of atheists take joy in people’s misfortune. Just that they do love to use disaster as what they call proof that God doesn’t exist. As if saying words written by humans being flawed – at least in their eyes – proves their point. Where’s the science in that? And they do use the word science as cover for their speculation.
If both sides told the truth, and didn’t spend so much time beating up on messengers, both would have to admit that they have no proof that can be seen, touched, felt or scientifically reasoned without speculation. It’s all deduction backed by speculation. Many on both sides say so. They all just think their side has the superior deduction.
And what does an atheist evangelist hope to accomplish anyway? Surely nobody really thinks religion is going away. Huge, powerful regimes have tried to kill it, as in most of the ones that ran ancient Rome and then the Soviet Union.
But people, somehow, manage to get back to their religion, even after it’s been suppressed long enough that it logically should have died. The people couldn’t wait to re-open their churches after the fall of the Soviet State.
America got started, against awesome odds, in large part because of religion. Try to give a logical, scientific explanation of that. Yeh, you could pick out some facts here and there probably, and call it logic.
But that little rag-tag band that made up the army George Washington led against the largest, most powerful military in the world actually winning? Not just matter and evolution and practical science. Survival of the fittest? Laughable. No,it was something that logical men would have declared impossible. And what some men and women still call miraculous!
But never mind. Back to the Atheists. They’d choke on the thought, but there’s no difference in an Atheist evangelist trying to convert the world and a Christian evangelist trying the same thing.
Both have committed to a cause and neither will back down a millimeter.
Woah. Heavens no! That would mean losing MAJOR face.
