MILITANT ATHEISM'S MISTAKES

     Militant 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, F. The Essays of Lord Bacon. London: Longman  and Green Co., 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.


1. Blaming God for the sins of irrational religion.

     It is very sad to read the diatribes of atheists, such as Richard Dawkins, against extremist Christian groups or individuals, as though they were representative of Christianity at large, even though they, in no way reflect the teachings of Jesus Christ. Rather than using them as examples of the evil within Christianity, would it not be more fair and objective to point out the discrepancy between their actions and the teachings of true Christianity? That would be the more honourable way to go, but some atheists prefer to create evil associations with Jesus Christ at all costs. Therefore, when they find irrational or hypocritical actions on the part of some Christian groups or individuals, they quickly announce that Christianity has been proven to be evil one more time. (Please read Is Christianity Evil? on this web site.)

2. Blaming God for the evils in the world.

     The presence of evil and suffering is to some atheists the greatest proof for the non-existence of God. Evil exists and so does suffering. Humans have been granted the gift of free will which allows them to choose their actions. They, consequently, often choose wrongly and, as a result, they cause themselves and others pain and anguish. This is the painful reality of sin; the innocent pay for the actions of the irresponsible and the foolish. This is what Christianity has been preaching for millennia, but people fail to heed -- and atheists unfortunately fail to support this obvious and critical reality. In fact, some of them openly embrace and model sinful behaviour that ultimately leads to anguish in themselves and others.

     What about natural catastrophes? Is God responsible for earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes? We do not know for certain. One thing is clear; He fails to intervene in such cases. Is that a manifestation of His cruelty, or is there much more that the Bible makes evident that atheists fail to understand or accept? (Read God and Catastrophes, on this web site.)    

3. Allowing their biases to cloud sound judgment.

     This is a perennial problem with many atheists. This is an evident problem with Richard Dawkins, the High Priest of modern atheism. His most recent work, The God Delusion oozes with biases, unfounded facts, and distortions that are unworthy of a man who should know better. For evidence of this, please read Dawkins Rebuttals and other articles on Dawkins listed on the front page of this web site.

     For further evidence of hasty and subjective propagation of unfounded facts read also Atheists and Divorce on this site.

4. Looking desperately for a few weak links in the Bible and ignoring the many strong ones.

     Most atheist sites make sure that a section is dedicated to what they see as Bible contradictions. They often spotlight "minute" historical discrepancies so as to invalidate the whole Bible. Unfortunately, they fail to inform the readers that Christian scholars have addressed such "discrepancies" many times and that there are ample resources to explain them. (See Bible Contradictions, on this site.)

     Worst of all, they totally ignore the fact that the Bible is in total harmony in almost all cases and that various Bible books in many cases testify to the exact same events harmoniously. Why not also include the "huge" number of historical events recounted by more than one book, in which there is harmony and agreements? Of course this they will not do because it would be devastating to their cause. If they were truly objective they would put on hold the few points in  which some witnesses appear to disagree on and accept the areas in which there is agreement. Is that not what a wise and just judge would do? If there are witnesses to an event, and the witnesses agree on most critical details, but seem not to agree on a very few less important details, he would wisely ignore the unimportant details the witnesses disagree on and rely on  the important facts that they agree on. It is "agreed upon" facts that carry testimonial weight, and of such the Bible is replete.

5.  Emphasizing almost solely  “Young- Earth” creationism, while ignoring “Old-Earth” creationism.

     Well known atheists love to ridicule the young-earth creationist views. What they consistently fail to mention is that there are creationist scientists that have a world view that is perfectly in harmony with proven science and the Bible, and that is Old Earth Creationism. (See, "Old Earth Creationism," on any search engine.)

6. Quoting a few known atheists to support their philosophy, while failing to mention that the vast majority of the greatest minds of the past believed in God, and that many of them were very devout Christians.

     Atheist sites are replete with quotes of known and less well known atheists who have in the past offered acerbic views on God and religion. A close inspection reveals many of them were not atheists at all, and that many quotes have no references, thus indicating the possibility that they are probably spurious and unfounded. This author has taken the time to investigate the religious views of the greatest minds of the past over a period of several  years  and does have thoroughly referenced statements directly from the greatest minds that prove, undeniably,  that they held a firm belief in God and that many were very devout people. (See God and the Greatest Minds on this site.)

7. Generalizing ad nauseam about religion.

     One need only peruse major Atheist sites to quickly see  that this is a common tendency. Their attacks are almost consistently directed at "Religion," as though Religion were one homogeneous block. This alone betrays the hatred many of them have for anything religious and the emotional blindness that prevents any objective assessment. Furthermore, it reveals  an unwillingness to openly acknowledge that the religious continuum indeed includes extremists, but it also includes sincere, kind, loving, honest and wonderful people who would never even hurt a fly, and who manifest their love for their fellow man not only with words, but with large monetary donations to charitable organizations and hundreds of hours of volunteer work.

8. An unwillingness to self-assess.

     Militant Atheists are so busy finding historical, and modern-day  faults with religion that they fail to look in the mirror of historical reality. They are so quick to point out that Christians were the cause of inquisitions, crusades and wars, (Pseudo-Christians, that is) but conveniently fail to mention the tens of millions killed by atheists-communists throughout the past century and countless millions killed by leaders who worshipped themselves. They stress that there are about one billion atheists worldwide, and millions in the U.S. alone, but they do not acknowledge that these billions have made little or no contribution to relieving human suffering, as opposed to Christians, for instance, that have for centuries created countless charitable organizations, hospitals, clinics, schools, etc. to help the myriads of destitute humans worldwide. Unfortunately their time-consuming obsession is finding fault with others, while totally blocking out their own sins. (See Atheist Crimes on this site.)

9. Insisting that teaching Intelligent Design in public schools would mean the death knell for Science and that America would lose its world scientific primacy.

     This militant atheist technique has been used profusely as a scare tactic so as to create resistance to the teaching of Intelligent Design in public schools. Some atheistic-evolutionists have been fanatically pushing this fraud for years and conveniently fail to mention that the founders of modern science (Galileo, Bacon, Descartes) were committed believers and that, in fact, the greatest leaps in Science took place because of great believers. (See also Greatest Scientists and God on this site).
