Atheism isn’t a belief system, it’s the product of a rational approach to the world. It’s no more a belief system than not believing in leprechauns is. You don’t believe in leprechauns simply based on an objective analysis of reality.

Nothing is more irrational than atheism.

Logic and rationality demand a self-existent eternal cause.

To deny that logical reality is an absurdity.

Edited for grammar.

Notice they always seem to go after Christianity and not Islam or devil worshippers.

Yep.

Also, notice that the vast vast vast majority of atheists are also left wing on economic issues. They are anti-capitalist, despite capitalism being empirically the most successful economic system in history.

Socialism requires extreme amounts of faith, yet most atheists are socialists.

Weird letter!

Why would an Atheist newsletter mention a member leaves because of something, Jesus Christ, they portend never came as son of God, something they believe doesn’t exist???

I say that Atheist Org in Kenya is a human trafficking ring and is cooperating with law to save as much of themselves as they can! Atheist Org is exposing those in higher government

This is bumper-sticker-level stupidity. It’s the equivalent of Christians saying “It’s not a religion, it’s a relationship.”

You're not the atheist that you think you are: you obviously worship yourself, like all pagans.

It only holds up on a superficial level in the light of our modern knowledge of the world.


Have you traveled much? Because when you have seen the myriad of wonders I've seen all over the Earth, you can only conclude it was some cosmic accident if you are either blind or stupid.

It should also be pointed out that many of the most significant scientific discoveries and theories developed as recently as the 20th Century were done by devout Christians who remained devout Christians after their discoveries and often credited their reconciliation of science and religion with those discoveries.

Cool?

Every day all around the world people become religious, change religions or drop religion altogether. Why is this newsworthy?




One fine day you’ll know…..though it may not be a truly fine day….it’s up to the individual.

I’ve listened to a shite ton of Believers debating atheists on the origins of life, whether Christ was God in the flesh, whether Christ even existed, etc. and one thing I can say without reservation….committed atheists are the must arrogant and loathsome people on God’s green earth. Lol! I watched a YouTube debate Friday night with a Pastor and his son debating two dudes that had advanced degrees in STEM. One of the atheists looked like a Satan worshiping high priest and he finally resorted to F bombs and mocking the Believers as his preferred style of debate.
