The Religion of Atheism

oth Psalm 14 and 53 declare
the fool has said in his heart there is no God. The word fool here is the
Hebrew word for fool is nabal. It means someone who lacks good sense,
one who is unwise. Psalm 19:1 says, “The heavens declare the glory of God, and
the firmament the works of His hands.”
Psalm 24:1 tells us the
earth is the Lord’s and all its fulness. In John 1:3 it says, “All things were
made and came into existence through Him; and without Him was not even one
thing made that has come into being (Amplified). In Colossians 1:16-17 we read,
“For it was in Him (Christ) that all things were created, in heaven and on
earth, things seen and unseen, whether thrones, dominions, rulers, or
authorities; all things were created and exist through Him and in and for Him.
And He existed before all things, and in Him all things consist.” In Revelation
4:10 the apostle John is transported to heaven. He witnesses the twenty-four
elders worshipping at the Lord’s throne and casting down their crowns saying,
“You are worthy our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, because
you have created all things (emphasis added), and because of your will
they existed and were created.” Romans 1
tells us that what God has created is a crystal clear revelation of His
existence. Romans 1:18-20 tells us:
A true atheist is an
idolater, a hypocrite and a liar. They are an idolater because since they say
God does not exist, they are going to worship an idol(s) – their own mind,
perhaps science or some false ideology like Darwinian evolution or New Age
mysticism. They are hypocrites because they always use language that belies their
atheistic beliefs like good and evil. If one is claiming to be a bonafide atheist,
the virtue of good and the reality of evil cannot exist. Why? Without a moral
law giver, humans are no better than an animal that hunts prey and kills it to
survive. The animal does not see killing to survive as evil, for it is
instinctive for it to hunt so that it does not starve to death. Good nor evil
is not an awareness in any animal, mammal or insect for God has not placed that
in them, but it is for humans. It’s called the conscience.
Atheists have a conscience
which clearly proves there is a moral lawgiver – God Almighty. But what all
atheists do is use language created by God and use it as a weapon against God.
Here are a few quotes I found from atheists:
gods
are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of
common sense.

Religions
are all alike- founded upon fables and mythologies.
· I agree with Thomas Jefferson in part. I would say, all false religions are all alike. They are founded upon fables and mythologies. Thomas Jefferson was considered a Deist and not an Atheist. He supposedly believed in God, but Deist do not believe in the providence of God - that He interferes in the affairs of men.
I
don't know if God exists, but it would be better for His reputation if He
didn't.

Have you looked in the mirror recently
Richard?
Notice the quote by
Margherita Hack. She says atheists act in “good conscience” and have moral principles.
If God does not exist in her worldview, where does the good conscience and
moral principles come from? Remember, if God does not exist, these virtues do
not exist either. The very God they deny is the same God they need to bolster to
give their atheism life. This is duplicitous and hypocritical behavior.
You cannot talk about
morality and goodness without the God that gave us those virtues. If one is
going to be a true atheist, you must be in a state of perpetual moral neutrality.
There is neither good nor evil in their worldview. If someone invaded their
home, raped their wife and children and then killed them, it would not be
wrong. Why? Because evil and immorality cannot exist in an atheistic universe.
As an atheist you cannot have an awareness of right and wrong because no one or
nothing placed those faculties in your psyche. Once again, we would all be animals living in
a Darwinian world – natural selection, survival of the fittest. In order for me to get mine, I have to kill
you and take yours. That would the pathetic existence of human experience. The
life of the atheist is bleak, foolish, senseless, pointless, darkness and
hopeless.
The atheist is deceived and
a liar. Why argue about a God who does not exist? Why put in all the energy and
vitriol toward a phantom? It does not make sense to me. They argue that faith in God is not based on
evidence. Not true. We have a library of 66 books written over a period of 1500
plus years. Most is based on eyewitness testimony of the God they wrote about,
the Holy Scriptures. Atheists also have to exercise “faith” and are convinced
that God does not exist. I would love for an atheist to present empirical
evidence to support their lie, but they cannot and never will. They are like
most people; they believe the state of the world is their evidence – homelessness,
starvation and poverty. Disease, rape of women and children and death are clear
evidence that the God of the Bible does not exist. What does this boil down to?
What we are dealing with is what evil man has been dealing with since the fall
of mankind; we do not understand the holiness of God in juxtaposition to the
wickedness of man. Why can’t the atheist see the problems and the evils we are
suffering are not God’s fault. God has given man free will to choose good or
evil. Man has chosen evil, and the world is a cesspool because of it. How is
God to blame for that? It is just as ridiculous as saying guns kill people. No
they don’t! A gun does not have a mind of its own and cannot make choices. People
firing the gun kills people.
So atheists being evil in
their minds have concluded that God is a celestial bully, and we are harmless
victims of His wrath. We don’t need Him; just do good to everyone, and
everything will work out fine.
My conclusion
is this, it is nearly impossible to be an effective atheist. Why? 1) You not
only have to deny the existence of God, but you also have to effectively prove
He is not real. No one in history has done that. The creation even without a
voice screams God’s presence power and glory across the cosmos. 2) Our
awareness of right and wrong clearly prove to all men that there is a moral
lawgiver. To deny this truth is to be dishonest which all atheists are. 3) Denying
that God exists with supposed secular compelling and educational rhetoric does
not prove His non-existence. People deny the existence of the God of the Bible
because He does not act like us and do our bidding on demand hence the sinful and
emotional reaction of the atheist to conclude that the Judeo-Christian God of
the universe is a monster- a devil.
I have come in my Father’s
name, and you receive Me not. If another comes in his own name, him you will
receive.
-John 5:43
