Atheism



The atheist will argue like this:

"You say God created all things, but who created God?"

This is an infinite regressive argument that depends solely on the "claim" that nothing can exist for all eternity.  But, it is a contradictory statement.

When pressed the atheist will argue that "all things" simply existed from all eternity without the need of a creator.  In saying that the atheist contradicts himself.  In fact, he is claiming that "All things existed from all eternity."  There goes his claim that nothing can exist from all eternity.

When pressed further, the atheist will have to acknowledge the fact of causal relationships. 

Causal relationships depend on a "before" and "after" which rules out everything existing from all eternity once again.  There could be no "before" and "after" if everything existed from all eternity.  All of the "after" would have to have existed at the same time as "before."

The atheist is "at war" with God.  In fact, on the tombstone of an atheist the epitaph will read:  "Here "lies" an atheist.  All dressed up but nowhere to go."  Sadly, he will go somewhere, but he will not be happy.

God is the uncaused cause who had no cause.
