Is Atheism Dead? Quotes

“This degree of fine-tuning is so great that it’s as if right after the universe beginning someone could have destroyed the possibility of life within it by subtracting a single dime’s mass from the whole of the observable universe or adding a single dime’s mass to it.”

“Because God who has made us in his image has created all of creation to point us to himself in every conceivable way. We are not incidental to what he has done. We are central to it. Which makes us see that his love for us is so impossible and unimaginably great that it really is infinitely too much for us to bear. If he did not shield us from it in some way, it would really and truly undo us. It would destroy us. Imagine a goodness so good and a beauty so beautiful and a truth so true and a light so white and so impossibly blindingly bright that apart from God's infinite love and mercy sheltering us from it, we could not bear it even for a moment.

Why does extraordinary goodness break our hearts? And why do innocence and vulnerability sometimes break our hearts? What do all these things say to us about the nature of the Universe and about who we are in it?”
