Atheism: An Act Of Faith.

The Word of G-d says it's all about Faith. Faith is relying on a fact concerning something or someone. In Christianity, Faith is relying on the fact that there is a G-d and that he gave himself as a sacrifice in our place because of our sins. I know a lot of faithful believers who have searched out the truth and believe this with all thier heart. However, there are those who appear to have a faith greater than ours......that is the strong faith that Atheist have in Atheism.

Most Atheists, that I have either corresponded with and have met, have a strong, almost blind, faith in their beliefs. A faith, so strong, that they are willing to fabricate their own background in order to create a facade of scholarship. They distort definitions and deny plain truth. All this, in an effort, to prove themselves correct. I'm not talking about the areas where G-d is concern and faith is required, no, but plain unadulterated scientific truth. Where the truth is black and white, no denying it. But yet they will twist it delibrately in a concerted effort to prove Atheism is the way, the truth and the light. A great example of this can be found in the comment section of a fellow believers blog on "The Fine Tuning of the Universe". A very good blog. You can check it out the blog at:

What it comes down to is this: Is this the kind of faith that G-d wants us, as believers, to have. No.... A Resounding NO. G-d says it perfectly here in Acts 17:11.

"Receive the message with all eagerness of heart, but search the scriptures daily to whether those things were so."

He wants us to have an informed faith, not a blind faith as most Atheists do.

An informed faith results in assured comfort while a blind faith causes you to do unjust things to boost a false and prideful existence.
