Not long ago, I met yet another committed atheist who informed me that God doesn't exist, and that death is followed by eternal nothingness. 

This woman was in her early 80s, which makes her position truly astounding to me. How can you be standing on the cusp of eternity and refuse to investigate what comes next? And there's no doubt that such folks are willfully ignorant; if they were to look with an open mind, they would change their tune in very short order, because the evidence for God's existence and the truth of the Bible is everywhere. 

Just take a gander at the old travel photo above. Even the most ardent atheist would have to agree that virtually everything in this frame was designed and manufactured via intelligent design on the part of human beings -- building, signs, flower boxes, VW bus, cobblestone street, clothing, accessories, and so on. And yet this same atheist would say that the living things in this snapshot -- the people and the plants -- are the products of random chance and vast ages, sparked when dead matter miraculously spawned life long, long ago.   
​
To think that those who embrace such fairy tales also insist that Christians are "intellectually stunted" and "delusional." Absolutely mind-boggling.

Faith is such a simple thing, such a natural thing Kitty. The lengths that people will go to in order to deny the existence of God has always astounded me. Long before I became a Christian, and keep in mind I was raised in an unbelieving home, I knew that God had to exist just by the sheer volume of creation. Being a country boy, I was always amazed at how many species of birds, fish,plants, etc. that existed. Even an ignorant country boy knew that wasn’t by accident!

I just never let myself think about it, I guess -- took 7th grade "evolution did it" and ran with it. How sad. The answers were right there, within reach, and I kept turning the other way.
