"I do not know the nature of or what caused quasars. Does that mean I'm not an atheist? What does this have to do with the lack of sufficient evidence for any deity? Are you actually saying that to be an atheist you must claim to know everything? So then your God is an atheist?" JG

A quasar is a small part of the creation of Almighty God. He is their Creator, and yet you plead ignorance as to who made them. You don't know. You also say that you don't know who or what made the Grand Canyon, flo...

"A happy man is too satisfied with the present to dwell too much on the future." Albert Einstein

While there is a place for not worrying about the future and letting it take care of itself, there is one "future" we must all consider. Jesus spoke of a man who completely ignored his eternal future and was called a "fool" by God Himself.

Most people don't consider that there is something far more important to God than human happiness. We tend to think that we are somehow owed happiness by God--...

"I am sure your 'fishing lures' of free gifts will draw some people in, maybe even get them into your net. After all you said yourself (as does the NT) that Christians are to be 'fishers of men' and evangelism is really a fishing expedition. Most of us are intelligent enough and not so desperate to realize what you are doing, but then Christianity always did appeal to those who are desperate and needy." nature observer

It seems that you may be insulting the intelligence of your atheist friends...

"Jeffrey said...I tend to think there was never a time when there was nothing, that our universe had a beginning in time, that the cause of that beginning is unknown and probably unknowable, but that there is no particular reason to believe it possessed intelligence and purpose (i.e., that it was God)."

If someone doesn't know what caused the universe, they are not an atheist. They may hold onto the label, but in truth they are "agnostic." Etymology: "Greek agnōstos unknown, unknowable, from ...

Atheist Church--Easter Service

Welcome to "Atheist Church." It's an honor to have you here on this Easter Sunday.

Let's begin with an appropriate hymn for Easter: Amazing Grace

Think about the words of this song, that was penned by a cruel slave-trader who tasted of God's mercy in Christ:

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first...

From the moment Albert Einstein came into a place of eminence, he became public domain. Decades later, he still is. Theists and non-theists alike continually use him as an intellectual measurement in a tug of war. Who's side was he on? Did he believe in God or didn't he? Theists provide a mass of quotes to show that he did believe in the existence of God, but atheists are quick to retort that it wasn't the God of the Bible, and think they have gained ground by saying so.

In truth, Albert Eins...
