                                                                                                                      ATHEISM EXPOSED AND DEFEATED

                                            

"God is a living, intelligent and powerful being; He is supreme, or  most perfect."       (NEWTON)       

 

"The existence of God is the first and the most eternal of all truths." (DESCARTES)

 

 

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.

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).


DANTE ALIGHIERI: “The 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. Continue...

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. Continue...

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." Continue...

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. Continue...

Inaccuracies: Where Bacon, Darwin, Dostoevsky, Einstein, Franklin, Galileo, Hobbes, Kant, Sartre, Shakespeare, Spinoza unbelievers as some atheists want you to believe? Continue...

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. Continue...

Secrets: 1.  Bertrand Russell was not an atheist. 2.  Darwin rejected Atheism. 3.  Sartre rejected Atheism. 4.  Einstein believed that Judaism and Christianity possessed the answers to all human problems. 5. Madalyn Murray O'Hair son, William, became a Christian evangelist. 6. The fathers/mothers of modern atheism were not-so-moral people.  7. The greatest social advancements were due to the work of believers, not atheists.  8. The greatest scientists of the past were fervent Christians. 9. Many modern Nobel Prize winning "scientists" believe in God. 10. The Scientific Method was conceived by philosophers and scientists who believed in God. 11. The greatest minds of the past believed in God. 12. Jesus Christ is a proven historical figure and fulfilled all the requirements to be the Messiah.13. The Bible has withstood the test of time. 14. There are ample explanations for alleged Bible discrepancies. 15.  Atheists were responsible for more deaths than any other group in history. Continue...

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.  Continue...

Crimes: "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.

Additionally, the international Communist movement murdered about 10,000 people throughout the world." " Daniel J Flynn, "Ideas Have Consequences... Like Murder, Tyranny, and Repression," Accuracy in Academia, Continue...

Fear Mongering: 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, Faraday, etc. Continue...

(Well Known) Ex- Atheists: Robert Browning, Simone Weil, Sir Antony Flew,  C. S. Lewis Continue...

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 Dawkins Delusion, by Alister McGrath, AlterNet. "Alister McGrath is a biochemist and Professor of Historical Theology at Oxford University. He may be Richard Dawkins' most prominent critic. As the author of Dawkins' God: Genes, Memes and the Meaning of Life, Continue...

David Hume: One of the most influential works of the great Scottish philosopher, David Hume, is An Inquiry concerning Human Understanding. In the tenth chapter titled "On Miracles," he offers arguments against the possibility of miracles. This work is often used by atheists as a weapon against one of the great proofs of God's existence. In this section the reader is encouraged to connect with the following web sites for some fine Christian rebuttals. Continue...

The Greatest Minds and God: Most of the greatest minds that ever lived believed in God. Many lived very devout Christian lives. Continue...

Nobelists and God: This section was kindly contributed by researcher and author Tihomir Dimitrov. It is only a fraction of his e-book,  Fifty Nobel Laureates Who Believe in God, The book, comprises religious quotations from the most influential scientists and writers in the world. Tihomir Dimitrov, Continue...

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. Continue...

 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. Continue...

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 web sites that address the so-called contradictions with depth and understanding. Continue...

About God and Jesus Christ: God and Jesus Christ, is a site about the most important topic there is: the Creator. This site has two aims. The first aim is to explain the basics of the Christian faith for people worldwide who may be intrigued by Christianity. The second aim is  to strengthen the faith of believers. This is the sister site of, Atheism Exposed and Defeated, a site committed to fighting the work of militant atheists. Together they are meant to be tools in God's hands to undo the efforts of unbelievers, to create faith in those who have none, and to strengthen the faith of those who already believe. Continue...

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? Continue...

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. Continue...

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. Continue...

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. Continue...

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." Pascal Levensohn, "Book Review-- 'Letter to a Christian Nation' by Sam Harris. "http://www.pascalsview.com/about.html   Continue...   

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. Continue...

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. Continue...

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.
