Christians have no fear of atheists, just concern for them. There is a God and abundant evidence in nature and the universe to prove to any logical and open minded thinker that God exists. Intelligent design is seen everywhere in the universe, from plant and animal life to the stars and galaxies. Ignore it if you choose, but it is there and demands an answer. The answer is not in evolution or the string theory but in the Bible.
Think of it this way.. if believers are wrong about God they have lost nothing but if they are right they have gained everything. If I were a betting man those would look like pretty good odds.
On the other hand, if atheists are right and there is no God and nothing but a vacuum after death, then they have neither lost or gained anything, but if they are wrong they have lost everything and face a terrible eternity. Not good odds.
But if atheists or agnostics will only start to read the Bible and approach God in prayer amazing things would happen. It will be like gradually receiving your sight after being blind.
If anyone really wants to know if God exists I can only say put down Origin of the Species and pick up the Bible and start reading the Book of John to start with. You might also be greatly helped as I was by reading Mere Christianity by C.S.Lewis on the side.
Think for yourself, forget the status quo of atheistic thinking, and approach God directly. Be an independent thinker with an open mind and a real desire to know the truth and you will find it in the Bible. There is no hope or meaning for life anywhere else.
Unfortunately, my observation over the years has been
” You can lead an atheist to evidence— but you can’t make him think”.
