Atheist Answer


Pray, scientifically prove the origin of the world, the immortality of the soul, the fact of human freedom and the moral conscience.

It's like saying sell me some love or sell me some life or inner freedom or moral responsibility. Some things are not bought or sold.

Have you ever seen love? Have you ever measured honesty, or weighed honor.

You don't have a problem with religion. You have a problem with basic logic. You're an atheist not because of science but because of your philosophy--which leads you to a false morality and a false humanity.

Gratitude, generosity, kindness, mercy and truth are all real, just as real as humanity itself, and the burden of proof? They defy all "proof" of a scientific nature because the human person has a soul, and this call for "proof" is a decidedly materialistic stance which the soul eludes.

Your Godless science is not even real science because it deprives man of what is most characteristically his as man: his heart and soul, the depth of his goodness and being. God.

Godless man gave the world WWI, WWII, adultery (of every form), contraception (to cover it up), abortion (to cover up the failed condom), euthanasia to cover our lack of true compassion and true humanity, and homosexualism to confuse and condone it all.

Science is based on belief. You have to believe that things can make sense in order to look for the sense in things.

Three obvious and fundamental (non-material) and most important realities which you have no way of approaching without the wisdom and the perfect goodness of God: the problem of Evil, the fact of human Liberty and the question of Eternity.
