Subject: An Admission of an Atheist |
Bible Note: Anecdote time again: I have a friend in Germany who is an atheist. I remember him saying once that he didn't want to believe that God existed. When I asked why he said, "if God exists then man would be obligated to Him." (In my experience atheists do not generally recognize this fact.) Of course, I still find it interesting that truth rarely enters into the equation for people like this. |
