WELCOME !
"ATHEISM EXPOSED AND
DEFEATED" has the
overall aim of combating the efforts of today's fanatical, militant
atheists, who are bent on conquering the minds of our young people and
on destroying the faith of believers.
Atheism has for centuries been the nemesis of religion, and
Christianity in particular. In the past, its efforts have been limited,
and so have been its successes. But things are changing. Since the
advent of the Internet, militant atheists have found a powerful new
conduit to propagate their views. Well-designed and well-funded web
sites offer large quantities of material against religion. These sites
have already succeeded in converting some young and impressionable minds
to fanatical Atheism. University professors with an atheistic bent have
further added to this trend by manipulating the minds of many young
believing students with their pernicious arguments. Famous atheists,
like Richard Dawkins are now leading the pack with forceful,
pseudo-logical books that have become influential best sellers.
Militant Atheism
should concern all believers. It is a form of fanaticism on a par with
extreme religious movements. Like religious extremism, it is
characterized by intensity and arrogance; it tears at, and ridicules
opposite viewpoints. It is often aggressive, disrespectful, sarcastic,
intolerant and, most of all, blasphemous. Its aim to kill faith and hope
and to leave as many victims as possible with a psychological vacuum
that they will fill with futile and destructive ideas.
Furthermore,
militant Atheism has a radical agenda to make abortion and euthanasia
legal, to render acceptable all forms of sexual perversions and to
erase religion out of existence.
This site is meant
to point the spotlight on their agenda, their fanaticism, their
inaccuracies, their deceptions and their irrational thinking. Most of
all, it is meant to provide ample sources that effectively combat every
one of their attempts at weakening and destroying the faith of many.

Do Atheists Care for Homosexuals More Than God?
Atheists are
very supportive of homosexuality and insist that the God of the Bible is

are a statement of love and concern?

QUOTES FROM GREAT BELIEVERS
EINSTEIN:
"The scientist's religious feeling takes the form of a rapturous
amazement at the harmony of natural laws, which reveals an intelligence
of such superiority that, compared with it, all the systematic thinking
and acting of human beings is an utterly insignificant reflection.
(Iain,
P. Science, Theology and Einstein. New York: Oxford University
Press, 1982, 57.)
GALILEO:
“To the Lord;
whom I worship and thank; That governs the heavens with His eyelid. To
Him I return tired, but full of living.”
(Chiari, A. Galileo Galilei, Scritti Letterari. Florence: Felice
Le Monnier, 1970, 321.)
NEWTON:
“From His true dominion it follows that the
true God is a living, intelligent and powerful being; and from His other
perfections, that He is supreme, or most perfect."
(Burtt, E.
A. The Methaphysical Foundations of Modern Science. New York: The
Humanities Press Inc., 1951, 257.)
BACON:
"It is true,
that a little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism; but depth in
philosophy brings about man's mind to religion:"
(Bacon,
F. The Essays of Lord Bacon. London: Longman and Green, Co.,
1875, 64.)
DESCARTES:
"The existence of God is the first and the most eternal of all truths
that exist and the only one from which proceed all others."
(Descartes,
R. Oevres Philosophiques (Tome1), Paris, Editions Garnier Freres,
1963, 265.)
KANT:
"But if we ask who has so firmly established the laws of nature and who
has limited its operations, then we will come to God as the supreme
cause of the entirety of reason and nature."
(Kant, I. Lectures on Philosophical
Theology. Ithaca: Cornell U. Press, 1978, 25.)
TOLSTOY: “For
life is life, only when it is the carrying out of God's purpose. ."
(Tolstoy, L.,
"Patriotism, Slavery of Our Times," in The Complete Work of L.
Tolstoy. New York: T.Y. Crowell Co., 1927, 165.)
LEONARDO DA VINCI
“I
obey Thee, Lord, first for the love I, in all reason, owe Thee;
secondly, because Thou can shorten or prolong the lives of men.”
(Richter,
J. , The Literary Works of Leonardo Da Vinci, Vol. II, Phaidon
Press, 1970,
237).

whole heaven is governed in all its parts , motions, and movers by a
single motion, the Primum Mobile, and by a
single mover, God.”
(Dante,
On World Government, I, ix)
A CLOSER LOOK…
Atheist
Agenda:
Atheism is becoming an ever-increasing dynamic and powerful foe of
Religion worldwide. Atheists are determined to free the world
of any vestige of religion and God. To do so, some atheistic
organizations are adopting an evangelical approach meant to proselytize
and convert. Their organizations are many, and they are well funded and
well organized. Though they hide their true intents behind a veneer of
seemingly honorable aims, such as defending human rights, their final
intentions are far from honorable and innocuous. This section is meant
to make manifest their true intentions and their long-term agenda.

Successes:
Atheist are determined, focused and well funded. Most battles they have
engaged America in have been won. This has emboldened and energized
them. Their successes will continue, unless believers join forces to
stop their unrelenting attacks. Removal of Bible reading and prayer
recitation from the public schools. The litigant was Madalyn O'Hair, who
founded the "American Atheists" organization.
Winning the first federal lawsuit challenging direct funding by the
government of a faith-based agency, Overturning a state Good Friday
holiday, Winning a lawsuit barring direct taxpayer subsidy of religious
schools, Removing Ten Commandments monuments from public lands, Ended
bible instruction in public schools after 51 year practice, Halted
prayer at public institutions, Stopped direct subsidy to religious
schools, Ended commencement prayers at a Top Ten University after 122
years of practice, It has ended distribution of Gideon bibles in public
schools, Has brought nearly 30 First Amendment lawsuits since 1977, and
keeps several Establishment law challenges in the courts at all times.

Arrogance:
Freedom From Religion) "Foundation PR director Dan Barker and Foundation
president Anne Gaylor stood beside a Ten Commandment monument in Denver,
Colorado and placed beside it the following marker with Anne's suggested
wording for a freethought alternative."“There
are no gods, no devils no angels no heaven or hell. There is only our
natural world. Religion is but myth.
Do study the Ten Commandments! They epitomize the childishness, the
vindictiveness, the sexism, the inflexibility and the inadequacies of
the bible as a book of morals.

Secrets:
Atheists are quick to point out that throughout history large numbers of
people were killed in the name of religion, but they fail to mention the
countless who were killed by leaders who worshipped themselves or by
Communists who were driven by a hatred for God and Religion.
"The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression, published by
Harvard University Press, is the work of eleven scholars that ignited a
continental firestorm when it first hit bookstores in France in 1997.
The authors estimate the century's death toll at the hands of Communist
governments (excluding wars) at 100 million people. Country by country,
deaths by the state in China stand at 65 million, in the USSR 20
million, Vietnam 1 million, North Korea 2 million, Cambodia 2 million,
Eastern Europe 1 million, Latin America 150,000, Africa 1.7 million, and
Afghanistan 1.5 million. Additionally, the international Communist
movement murdered about 10,000 people throughout the world."

Lies:
Atheists delude themselves into thinking that unbelievers are
responsible for most of the social advancements in our world. No doubt
they have been among the foremost supporters of euthanasia and abortion;
this, though, can hardly be seen as "social progress." Opposing capital
punishment while supporting legalized murder is hardly something to
gloat about. Furthermore, propagating that the people who first spoke
for prison reform, the humane treatment of the mentally ill, the women's
right to vote, and calling for an end to slavery were people who were
free from religion is tantamount to a grand self-delusion, or a heinous
lie.

Mistakes:
Atheism is founded in large part on emotions, subjectivity and a
cavalier treatment of realities that demand depth of thinking and an
open mind. Lord Bacon was correct in his assessment of Atheism when he
wrote the following:It is true, that a little philosophy inclineth man's
mind to atheism; but depth in philosophy brings about man's mind to
religion: for while the mind of man looketh upon second causes
scattered, it may sometimes rest in them, and go no further; but when it
beholdeth the chain of them confederate and linked together, it must
needs fly to Providence and Deity (Bacon, 1875, 64). What follows is a
list of grave mistakes that atheists have been making for centuries that
have led them to embrace the most irrational philosophy that humans
could ever conceive.

Immorality:
Many atheists take issue with some believers' contention that one cannot
be truly moral without God and a God-given moral code. Some atheists
insist that they are moral and that they do not need God to be moral
beings. Though some may hold on to some form of "self-conceived,"
"flexible" ethics, they clearly do not uphold Judeo-Christian morality.
This section offers evidence of the kind of morality the leaders of
modern atheism openly embraced. These individuals have been the "role
models" for many atheists for decades.

One of atheists favorite technique is to create anxiety in people by
stressing that by opposing evolution one is opposing science and that
scientific progress will be stifled if people end up believing that the
universe was created by God. What they conveniently fail to mention is
that the greatest leaps forward in science took place because of
fervent believers like Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo, Newton, Pasteur,

Richard Dawkins:
"After reading a great deal of this bombast, I have come to the
conclusion that Richard has never assumed the duties of a Professor of
the Public Understanding of Science - a position he holds due to the
patronage of a zillionaire from Microsoft. He seems to lack the
intellectual confidence to say anything of substance, so he sticks to
the very safe path of appealing to materialist prejudices."
Richard Dawkins,
Philip Johnson's Weekly Wedge Update.
Dawkins seems to think that saying something more
loudly and confidently, while ignoring or trivializing counter-evidence,
will persuade the open-minded that religious belief is a type of
delusion. For the gullible and credulous, it is the confidence with
which something is said that persuades, rather than the evidence offered
in its support. Dawkins' astonishingly superficial and inaccurate
portrayal of Christianity will simply lead Christians to conclude that
he does not know what he is talking about -- and that his atheism may
therefore rest on a series of errors and misunderstandings. Ironically
the ultimate achievement of The God Delusion for modern atheism
may be to suggest that it is actually atheism itself may be a delusion
about God. "The

One of the most influential works of the great Scottish

Is God Cruel?
For centuries atheists, agnostics and even some believers, have
described the God of the Bible as a very stern and cruel Being. Some
influential thinkers have stressed that the "God is love" idea is
especially contradicted by some of God's works as described in the
Scriptures. A God of love, they insist, would never wipe out humanity as
Yahweh did during Noah's time, nor would He have destroyed whole cities
simply because of their immoral behaviour. Furthermore, they assert, a
loving God would not have used a favourite tribe to wipe out Canaanite
men women and children simply because their ways did not please Him.
No
doubt, the God of the Bible is responsible for the events described
above and for many other events that, when looked at superficially, do
appear quite perplexing. But was God really cruel, or is there much more
to His actions that unbelievers have seen or refuse to see?
Continue...
God and Catastrophes:
December 26, 2004 South East Asia was overwhelmed by a tsunami of great
proportions such as has not been seen in centuries. The result was a
catastrophe that led to hundreds of thousands killed and a great many
injured. The damages to several nations are incalculable.
Many have understandably asked: "Where was God when this happened? If He
is a loving God, why did He not intervene?" Atheists gleefully answer
such a question with their well-known pat answer: "God did not
intervene, because there is no God!"
Theologians from various religions have offered various, contradictory
explanations. The following is this author's explanation based on
scriptural indications. It proposes that God exists, that He knew about
the tsunami in advance, that He was aware of its destructive power, but
that He did not intervene because humanity from the very beginning has
invited Him to stay out of its affairs -- and He has obliged.

Is
Christianity Evil?
Absolutely yes, would say militant atheists. They would then proceed to
point out that the history of Christianity is replete with examples of
wars, persecutions, greed, immorality, etc. that manifest both cruelty
and hypocrisy.This site acknowledges that some Catholic and Protestant
Christians of the past have committed atrocities, injustices and immoral
acts that were far from shining examples of Christianity. On the other
hand, this site does not recognize that such actions were committed by
"true" Christians. No sensible and rational mind would accept the claims
of anyone who calls himself an atheist while regularly praying to God.
Furthermore, no one would accept the claim of anyone who asserts to be a
Marxist, while openly supporting capitalist principles. The glaring
paradox found within such examples is the same glaring paradox that
spotlights the fact that butchers, the power hungry, the greedy, and the
hypocrites of the past were "pseudo-Christians" and not true followers
of Jesus Christ.
To determine if one is an atheist, one need only check the foundational
views of Atheism. To determine of one is a Marxist, one need only check
the foundational views of Marxism. To determine if one is a Christian,
one need only check the teachings of Jesus Christ. What follows are some
of the fundamental teachings of Jesus Christ. An honest reading of some
of His central teachings quickly reveals that the many shameful acts
committed by "Christians" of the past were the actions of evil and
hypocritical men and women, not the actions of "true" Christians.
Continue...
Was
Jesus Christ Really Resurrected?
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is central to Christian belief and to
the Christian hope. Christians believe in the resurrection of Jesus
Christ from the dead, because the Old and the New Testament teach it,
because Christ promised it and because His apostles confirm it in the
New Testament writings. Contrariwise, Atheists, Agnostics and others
assert that the resurrection is a fable concocted by Jesus’ followers,
because their attachment to Jesus’ memory was so strong that they all
“agreed” to create a new religion in His name based on lies and deceit.
The evidence for Jesus' resurrection is not based on flimsy fables but
on the unassailable evidence of common sense, solid logic, and many
totally reliable and truthful witnesses.

Bible
Contradictions?
Atheists gloat about the supposed large numbers of Bible contradictions
and gladly list such contradictions on their web sites. Upon close
analysis, their lists reveal a very superficial understanding of
scriptures and a tendency to hasty and subjective conclusions. Below are

understanding.

Open Letter to Atheist/Agnostic-Jews:
I don’t know why you have rejected your roots. The reasons may be
several and complex. My doubtful Jewish friend, Fred, has no definite
reason for not accepting the divinity of the Torah, except that his
logical mind simply will not permit it. Maybe, like the author Elie
Wiesel, you have concluded that a loving God would have never permitted
so much suffering among His people. Perhaps, like Freud and Marx, you
see the Torah as a collection of myths that your ancestors created and
compiled. Or maybe, like Einstein, you love the moral teachings of the
Torah and see their transforming power, but you do not see in them any
evidence of divine.
Where do you fit? Is your rejection of your religious roots well
pondered? Do you really know what you have rejected? Was your conclusion
perhaps too hasty? Do you know why people like me – a Gentile—elevate
the Torah to a high and lofty divine plane? Or why billions of people
still base their faith on it?

Open Letter to Hurt Christians Who Embraced
Atheism:
There are quite a few former Christians who have embraced atheism. Many
will tell you that the reason is the fact that the evidence for God and
Christ did not hold up to close scrutiny. I would like to propose that
your hurt favored a rejection and clouded your judgment. Deep inside,
you know full well that the Apostles would have never lied about a Being
called Christ, about the miracles they witnessed, His death and
resurrection. You know full well that there was no reason for them to
conceive such an intricate set of events, preach it to hate filled
crowds and then be persecuted for and then die for such a set of lies.
Deep inside you know that the coming of the Holy Spirit on the Day of
Pentecost was not creative writing and that all 21 Epistles support the
same message and the same events, because they were not lies but
undiluted truth.

Can Atheists be Moral?
In
reading atheist literature or web sites, atheists insist that they are
moral people and that human beings do not need a god to be moral. This
site proposes that though they and others can choose to be relatively
decent people, they are far and distant from the quality of
morality fulfilled by "true" Christians.
Continue...
Atheists Believe in a God:
Atheists consistently propose that an Eternal Being who created the vast
universe cannot be proven to exist. On the other hand, the universe's
beginning cannot be denied. Thus a study of origins must stop at the
beginning of the universe. Of course what comprises the universe is
energy. Thus the origin of all is energy. This "vast" force manifests
itself in the atom which is able to join with other atoms to create
molecules, which in turn join together to create visible matter, that in
turn (according to atheists) gradually evolved into simple life forms
and over eons stunning life forms such as the butterfly, the dolphin,
the eagle and then, I must say, the supreme manifestation of this blind
energy: woman, with its stunningly sophisticated reproductive system
meant to give life and a feeding system meant to maintain life. Out of
woman, mindless energy brings forth beautiful babies that grow into
adult humans with amazing "minds" able to reason, create and accomplish
ever-more stunning feats. And all of this is the result of a force that
can transform itself in all of the above, but has no mind, no intent, no
universal plan. Ironically, this mindless energy can create mind, but
it has none.
Thus the origin, the source of it all, is a titanic, creative force that
has everything except "mind." This is the god of atheists: a "mindless"
God.

Christopher Hitchens:
First Dawkins and now Hitchens. This is a fruitful time for atheists.
They sense that people's frustration with religious extremists is at an
all-time high, and they and their publishers want to gain the most out
of it. Thus a surge in books against religion and God. Hitchens is one
such opportunist. In his recent work, God is not Great , he shows
a level of aggressiveness and offensiveness toward believers that is
beyond equal. Worst of all, he frames his work with biases and
intellectual dishonesty. But many atheists don't mind. As long as he
bashes believers, it's all welcome.

Samuel Harris:
Rebuttals:
"But, after reading his book, I am left feeling that he is a fanatic
rationalist who leaves no room for nuance or interpretation. In his
writing, Harris appears to feel so alone in his rationalism that he is
compelled to shriek at his audience, using blasphemy and insults to get
a reaction out of people of faith.As I read "Letter
to a Christian Nation", which one can easily do in an
hour and a half, I started to feel that the author, perhaps
deliberately, perhaps despite himself, transforms his monologue into the
same fanatical, fundamentalist, incomprehensible dogma that he so
thoroughly denounces."

Philip Pullman, Rebuttals:
Christopher Hitchens just finished having his hour on the anti-Christian
stage and now enter Philip Pullman, an admitted Christianity basher and
a writer of children books clearly meant to undermine Christianity. I
just finished reading Pullman's Biography, and it is most enlightening.
He lost his father, in a plane crash in 1953 when he was only seven. He
went to live with his grandfather, an English "clergyman," soon after.
An early loss of a parent can lead to confusion and resentment toward
God. Some kids conclude that it was God who took the parent away,
thus holding within themselves bitterness that later on may
transform itself into full-blown atheism.
Going to live with an old "clergyman" grandfather "may" have added fuel
to the fire, especially if he was the very conservative type that a
child would resent. Add the two factors together and you might have the
ideal foundation for resentment toward God and Christianity. Pullman is
full of both.
Should parents allow their children to read his God-undermining books?
Secular forces will say "yes." Some liberal pseudo-Christians may
actually say "yes" as well. Christians with common sense will instead
say, "Don't hand your kids to the lions!" He is an "admitted" lion who
wants to divest your kids of all faith in the Christian God. Don't let
his "fable-framed," Satanic Trilogy get even close to your kids. God
demands that we protect our kids from types such as Pullman, and we have
the duty to follow His expectations.

Is Richard Dawkins Satan Possessed?
Satan, no doubt, is using Richard Dawkins and other atheists such as
Hutchins, Harris and Pullman, but he need not possess them, he most
probably simply moves them and inspires them to create works that serve
to confuse some poor weak souls that have a very poor grounding in their
faith, and provides justifications for others who want to free
themselves from the guilt that may accompany a sin-filled life-style.
But let there be no doubt about it, influential figures such as Dawkins
are, without any doubt, tools in Satan’s hands. They are moved by “the
Prince of the Power of the air, the spirit that now works in the sons of
disobedience.” (Ephesians 2:2). They free people from any fear of God
and open the door for some to move into a dangerous life of immorality.
Such weak ones are promised “freedom” when in reality they are taken
prisoners by a being that will saturate them with pride, arrogance and a
rebellious spirit that will get them into serious harm.

Atheistic Humanism: the New Messiah?
Atheism is a bankrupt philosophy that refuses to disappear. What drives
it is a need on the part of some to free themselves from any Power that
they would feel inferior to. They hate the notion of having to answer
for their actions to someone that would find them unworthy and
undeserving. They consequently fear the consequences that might follow.
The solution: kill the Judge. This is what they have attempted to do for
centuries, but in figuratively killing the Judge many of them were
enslaved by a psychopathic spirit that led them to bring about about the
death of tens of millions (See
Atheist Crimes,
on this site).
Modern-day atheists frantically try to separate themselves from their
butcher forefathers and are now attempting to present a new façade, that
of a kinder, gentler Atheism: Humanistic Atheism.
The heart and core of Humanistic Atheism is the faith assumption that
human nature is essentially good. They believe that human nature is good
without the need of God and definitely without the need of fear of God.
They also hold that humans have the ability to determine for themselves
right and wrong. Furthermore, they have blind faith in Science as the
savior of mankind. Quite a package…

Atheism, Sex and Sexuality:
The sexual drive is very powerful, and its fulfillment ecstatic. Sexual
abandonment, though, can lead to devastating consequences at the
individual, social and global level. Tens of millions today have
incurable STD’s in the US alone, about forty millions have HIV around
the globe. Countless millions have died since the discovery of HIV in
the early 1980’s. The most excruciating part of all this is the fact
that countless women and men have died innocently because of
irresponsible partners that refuse to pull the reigns on their
sexuality. Great numbers of children have become orphans because of
sexual irresponsibility on the part of a parent. In spite of the fruits
of sexual liberation, many atheists oppose Judeo-Christian morality
adamantly. One need not research the motives of atheism for long to see
that one of the forces that drive many atheists is the need to free
themselves and humanity from the guilt that accompanies sexual sins so
as to indulge in sexual adventures without either compunction or fear.
Their logic is simple. There is no God, no sexual sin and thus no need
for guilt. There is ample enjoyment in satisfying the sense. Pre-marital
sex, adultery, pornography and other forbidden fruits become acceptable
and not to be condemned if they are acceptable to participants.
