Me:  Who is your friend, Prodigal?

 

Prodigal:  Just a friend but she says that she does not believe in God.

 

Me:  Well, I was just reading about conversations with Atheist and I would like to share.

 

Ravi Zacharias speaks on this in his book Beyond Opinion Living the Faith We Defend

 

Atheist:  There is no God!

Christian:  Are you sure about that?  Can you prove that?

Atheist:  I don’t need to!  It’s obvious.

Christian:  Well, humor me.  Prove it!

Atheist:  Well, I can’t prove it with total certainty.  But it’s the best option.

Christian:  I see.  So what you are saying is that you can’t prove that there is no God–but that you believe the nonexistence of God is the most likely option.

Atheist:  That’s right.

Christian:  So atheism is a belief, then.  Given that both atheism and Christianity are belief systems, which is better?  And how might we go about judging this?

 

Makes you thing doesn’t it?  Well I think that is the purpose!  Now seek the answer for yourself.

 

Ecclesiastes 3:1

To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven
