Quotes for Sunday

Here are a few quotes for Sunday. Enjoy!

Agnosticism:

I have a great love and respect for religion, great love and respect for atheism. What I hate is agnosticism, people who do not choose. - Orson Welles

Apologetics:

We need men and women who are willing to compete with secularists in defense of Christ and His truth. R. C. Sproul.

Atheism:

"Nobody talks so constantly about God as those who insist there is no God." - Heywood Broun

"If there were no God there would be no atheists." - G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936)

"The Seventh Judicial Circuit of the Court of Appeals of the United States held that atheism is a religion and therefore it cannot be promoted by a public school. Currently public schools are promoting atheism through a dogmatic and uncritical teaching of materialistic theories of origins". - John Calvert, Intelligent Design leader

"Atheism is a disease of the soul before it becomes an error of understanding." - Plato

To be an atheist requires an infinitely greater measure of faith than to receive all the great truths which atheism would deny. - Joseph Addison

Religion:

I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world. - Richard Dawkins

The Face That Demonstrates The Farce of Evolution by Hank Hanegraaff

Hanegraaff is the President of CRI, a Christian Apologetics Ministry based out of Charlotte North Carolina.

The book was an easy read. One could finish it in one early evening. It lays out a simple case for an apologetic against atheism and why atheism stands on faulty philosophical grounds. WHat the book says is right on target but the length was very short and it has large type in the body. There are better works out there for your money but for a compact treatment it will do if nothing else is available.

Why I have to learn some "techno geek" stuff!

I ran into two GREAT websites today that all thinking people, Christian and non-Christian, need to at least browse briefly. They are:

http://whywontgodhealamputees.com/

and

http://godisimaginary.com/

Look the sites over and listen to his arguments. Be aware that Christians and Christianity have answer to his question. he makes mistakes in logic and history as well as misrepresenting the claims that Christians make about our faith.

If anyone knows how to make videos like he has send me directions on how to do that or point me to a web page or book.

One that I really like was this one:

10 questions that every intelligent Christian must answer (http://youtube.com/watch?v=zDHJ4ztnldQ)

Do you know how you would answer these questions?

(1 Peter 3:15-16 KJV)
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.

May God bless you today.
