    The Folly of Atheism

    1) You are blissfully, or perhaps wilfully, ignorant of your own projecting onto others. 2) No, the Apostles couldn't have been "honestly mistaken" about Jesus' physical resurrection. 3) The story of Abraham and Sara foreshadows - by God's providence and design - the story of Zechariah and...

    The Folly of Atheism

    Christianity is a growing religion globally. The West has ceased to be Christian over this last 300 years .

    The Folly of Atheism

    Decline of religion in the West ? - yes, that's good news for religion, as the West is declining (indeed dying). And its low birth-rate populations are being replaced by fertile (and religious) migrants.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Saudi Arabia forbids Christianity - no one can take a bible there. God doesn't send thunderbolts to kill bad people - because if He did so, we'd all have to be Good Puppets.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Other Christians FOUGHT to ABOLISH slavery. Literally. Who were the genuine Christians ? Those who had the honesty to see that the biblical command "Love your neighbour as yourself" is an explicit forbidding of slavery.

    The Folly of Atheism

    "Nothing is impossible to God" - and as we are made "in the image and likeness of God" - Jesus was both fully human and fully God. He suffered as a human being (He really was a Jewish rabbi as well as God).

    The Folly of Atheism

    As God didn't save Himself from suffering on the Cross, every suffering person is the suffering Christ. It is obvious that each of us will one day have to meet his or her creator. It is wishful thinking to pretend otherwise.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Christianity dying out in the USA ? To some extent. Two reasons: Politicised and bigoted Christian leaders - showing much greater Love for Money than for God - have put many off religion. The other reason is that the USA itself is dying, like the rest of the Western world.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Where do the laws of physics come from ? Who or what created them ? God being the Cause of everything, doesn't Himself need a Cause. With regard to human inventions like autos, we ourselves are playing the part of God, using His laws of physics in the process.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Hitler said he was doing "Christ's holy work" ? And you BELIEVE that he was being sincere when he said that ?? Your massive ignorance of Christian history still shines through - the Spanish Inquisition (controlled by the Spanish monarchy, not the Church) didn't burn self-declared Jews; only...

    The Folly of Atheism

    No - we haven't invented God. God has invented us - we wouldn't exist otherwise.

    The Folly of Atheism

    The Roman Empire Bronze Age ? The Gospels dating from 300 AD ? - Just how ignorant are you ? Yes, the Roman kept slaves - yes, Christianity ended slavery.

    The Folly of Atheism

    You need to provide a citation; disprove it ! Jesus was fully Divine and fully human. In His human nature, He was mortal and suffered appalling agony. You really do lack a knowledge of Christianity.
