"There is no such thing as a wise atheist"



Atheist: 
"I need proof. Are you telling me that I am unwise in refusing to believe in something that I can not see?"

Eddie Eddings:
"...you can't believe in everything you SEE either. Photoshop, TV and movies can attest to that.

Love is something you can't see but I'm pretty sure you believe in it.

The "unwise" part in the life of an atheist is his or her neglecting so great a salvation.

You can't SEE your future but, you definitely have an eternal one.

I have no way to "prove" this to you. But, proof will come eventually.

Inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once, and after this, judgment. I would consider gambling with your soul an unwise practice."

A.     This is the most common of all mistakes made by atheists. They are often condescending as they mock Christianity. They insult God, call him a tyrant, refer to Christianity as mythology, baseless, a fairytale, compare God to invisible pink unicorns ... (read the entire article)
