The Tragedy of Atheism: To Never Know the Love of God!

The fool hath said in his heart: There is no God, They are corrupt, and are become abominable in their ways: there is none that doth good, no not one. [Psalm 14:1]

Why I'm thinking about atheism this morning is a puzzle. I don't know anyone who proclaims belief in atheism, although I met a pro-life atheist when I was in prison during the 1992 Spring of Life in Buffalo. They held us for 24 days so the 100+ women got to know each other pretty well. I wonder if she's still an atheist almost 25 years later. I think I'll pray for her today and for all atheists. They don't really believe in no god. Their god's name is Chance or Evolution or Accident. They look at the complexity of the universe and reduce its order to the throw of the dice. Calling it foolish seems to me to be an understatement.

Sunday Meditation: Thinking About Faith

The women's day of reflection which I attended yesterday focused on the three theological virtues: faith, hope, and charity. Of all the virtues these three let us reach out and touch the hand of God. All the other virtues support these three which take the prominent place in the hierarchy of virtues.

From the "Will They Wake Up?" File

Well...as the saying goes, "Where there's life there's hope." I've been intrigued to see people like Naomi Wolfe, J. K. Rowling, and other feminists modify their stands on certain things as they see the outcomes of the left's philosophy which were totally predictable. Men competing against women in sporting events? What's a woman? Who knows?

Where's Your Faith this Holy Week?

Last Friday I went to see The Case for Christ. It's the conversion story of one man's journey from atheism to faith. Lee Strobel, a reporter for the Chicago Tribune, decided to try to prove that Christianity was false because he was angry when his wife converted. As an investigative reporter with a legal background he pursued his research as though he were putting Christianity on trial. Where did the evidence lead? What did the witnesses, the forensic evidence, the documents, etc. show and how did they impact the verdict? He was a man looking for the truth with the hope it would uphold his atheism. It didn't. Ultimately, he had to follow the evidence to its conclusion and accepted Christianity.

That got me thinking about another man, the so-called scientist Richard Dawkins who wrote The God Delusion. I'm always intrigued by atheists like Dawkins who mock Christians by talking about the "great Teapot in the sky" and use other disparaging and dismissive comments to discredit Christian belief. I've seen Dawkins ridicule a college coed who had the audacity to ask him, "What if you're wrong?" He can't fathom such a thought and, yes, responded by mocking her. Unlike scientists who question and test their theories and answer objections by re-examining the evidence -- Dawkins knows and believes with a maniacal and fanatical faith. Yes, faith!

Richard Dawkins is so Pathetic

Richard Dawkins: There’s nothing wrong with a little ‘mild pedophilia’

And there's nothing wrong with a little:

• mild spouse abuse
• mild elder abuse
• mild rape
• mild sadism
• mild assault

Blessed, Jacinta, please pray for this mindless atheist whose intellect is so darkened by hatred of the God he claims doesn't exist. No one who attacks God and people of faith so relentlessly (to the point of lying about the impact of religion on history)

Sometimes you win a small skirmish!
