Atheism's Heart Attack

Many skeptics of the Bible claim that there is a discrepancy between the Bible and Evolution, and this proves the Bible’s wrong because Evolution “is proven fact.” It’s not. It’s the foundation for atheism and atheism is the foundation of Evolution. Therefore, it’s circular reasoning.

One devastating blow to the atheist is the abundance of missing links that remain missing. Even Lucy, still paraded around as an ape-man, is now known to be fully ape (1). There are billions of fossils that have been found. I would accept Evolution if there were 12 links connecting each variety of animal. So far, the atheist is content to find one link and leave the entire chain otherwise unconnected. This is a problem because a fossil isn’t fossilized fully. Parts are missing.

Another blow is the Second Law of Thermodynamics. This law says everything tends toward disorder when LEFT TO IT’S OWN DEVICES! This is a serious blow to the theory that says man is progressing upwards. There is a law going against a theory. The law stays the same: the theory must either be changed or discarded. Unfortunately, the only alternative is special Creation, which implies God.

Another blow is the existence of matter. We have three possibilities: 1. The universe always existed. 2. The universe was created uncaused. 3. The universe was created by the God of special Creation. As the law above proves, the universe had a beginning. This law debunks the eternal-universe theory. Because of this, the atheist is left with only one alternative: The Big Bang. The First Law of Thermodynamics says, although matter can be turned into energy and vice versa, matter cannot be created or destroyed. This is a major stumbling block to the Big Dud, especially with the Law of Cause and Effect. This law says every effect has a cause. So, atheist, what caused the Big Bang?

Another blow is life. Every experiment attempting to create life only created a few of the necessary products. The Urey-Miller experiment’s a dud, because Miller only created 2 amino acids. Both of them were a mix of left-handed and right-handed pieces. Only left-handed pieces are acceptable for amino acids. Nucleotides are all right-handed, so all parts must be right-handed. Additionally, he didn’t have any Oxygen because he knew that would make “life” oxidize. That would kill life, so skeptics claim early Earth didn’t have any Oxygen. However, this property of oxidizing is EXACTLY why Oxygen is so beneficial to us. All the pieces are together, so we don’t experience as much of a negative effect when oxidation occurs within us.

Another problem is how finely balanced life is on Earth. Let us calculate the probability of another Earth existing. This is done by multiplying the probability of all the criteria together. There are many criteria we never even think about, too. Additionally, we are learning more of the criteria annually. These are probably VERY generous to the atheist.

Size of moon= 1 in 6
Distance from moon= 1 in 4
Size and brightness of Sun= 1 in 8
Spiral galaxy= 1 in 3
Size of planet= 1 in 5
Power of magnetic field= 1 in 4
Polarity of magnetic field= 1 in 2
Planets protecting us from meteorites= 1 in 12
Protection from UV rays, gamma rays, X-rays, etc.= 1 in 30
Oxygen-Nitrogen proportions= 1 in 4
Saltiness of oceans= 1 in 4
Distance from supernovae= 1 in 6
Earth’s tilt= 1 in 10
Earth’s rotation speed= 1 in 6
Earth’s revolution speed= 1 in 4
Earth’s water-land ratio= 1 in 3
The fact that water doesn’t contract when it freezes= 1 in 8
Distance from nebulae= 1 in 4
# of atoms in universe= 1 in 600 (1 more atom would probably destroy the universe)
Information for DNA= 1 in 1100
Carbon (No other material is as reactive) near Earth= 1 in 70

These are not all of what life needs to prosper on a planet like Earth. Even if there were 1 followed by 14 zeroes planets, the probability is still 8475799 to 1 against life being accidental. We were designed.

One last blow to atheism is the increasing evidence for a young Earth. I will show 8 Young Earth Creationist (meaning that the owners of these web sites all agree the Earth is young, between 6,000 and 10,000 years old) web sites.

To accept the evidence and reject Evolutionism, just pray this prayer:

Jesus,
I have sinned against You. Please forgive me for my sins. I want to follow You the rest of my life as my Creator and Lord.
Amen.

Non-Biblical evidence for Jesus' Diety

Many atheists claim that Jesus never lived. Muslims and Jews, as well as some Buddhists and even some atheists, say He lived, but He was just a good, moral teacher. However, Christians claim He was God incarnate (in the flesh). Who’s right? Either Jesus never made claims to divinity, in which case He was a good moral teacher or a legend, or He did, making Him either the world’s most wicked sinner, the most insane person of all time, or the God-in-flesh worthy to be worshipped.

Let’s make some predictions based on the models of each possibility and see which model best describes Jesus.

If He never existed, we would expect to find no reference to Him, except for writings that were clearly meant to be legends. We would find nothing dedicated to Him, no books written by Him, no people flocking to hear Him preach, and no evidence He lived.

If He were a good, moral teacher, we would expect evidence for His existence, but no claims to divinity, such as accepting worship, forgiving sins, performing miracles, etc.

If He were a liar, the world’s most wicked sinner, we would expect Him to serve Himself first. Everyone who knew Him would despise Him. No one would willingly follow Him.
However, He would make claims of divinity. However, He would not back it up.

If He were a lunatic, we would expect Him to lose control over His emotions easily, although at times, He might be able to keep Himself under control.

However, if His claims to divinity are confirmed, we have to choose either to worship Him or not to worship Him. One test is miracles, for only one outside of the universe can perform miracles. Another is prophecy, for only one outside of the time continuum can accurately predict the future. Now that all five models have boldly made their predictions, let us look at the evidence.

Evidence for Jesus’ existence comes from the ever-popular historian Josephus, who said in Antiquities of the Jews that Jesus was “a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man,” However, despite this, He never believed Jesus was the Messiah, or Chosen One. Another passage from the same story records James’ martyrdom, describing James as Jesus’ brother. That alone would satisfy some standards of proof for proving someone’s existence from a historical note. Two other historians who mention Jesus would be Cornelius Tacitus and Pliny the Younger. This makes a minimum of three nonbiblical historians confirming Jesus really did exist.

Did He make claims to Divinity? The texts recording some of Jesus’ life would be the Gospels according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. All of these record some of Jesus’ claims to be God. They couldn’t be legends because there wasn’t enough of a gap between the events and the recording, at most thirty years.

So the evidence says Jesus really did claim to be God. Was He lying, mistaken or right?

The same documents that record the parts of His life describe how He never served Himself first. If there was one seat left at the baseball park, according to the descriptions of the Gospels, He would only take it if no one else wanted it. Not exactly the kind of thing we would expect from someone who claimed to be God to be self-serving.

Could He have been mistaken? Could He have thought He was God? No. The reason is because an insane person would not always be able to control his or her emotions. We rarely see outbursts of emotions from Jesus. There are two outbursts of emotions that come to mind. The first is Lazarus’ funeral, when Jesus wept. It is understandable that he would cry at his dear friend’s funeral. The only other outburst is when Jesus was at the temple which was being used as a marketplace. This is an understandable outburst. His Name was being dishonored. He made it clear that His House, the church, was to be used for worship, not for making money.

By the way, the New Testament by far exceeds any standard of proof ever made to establish certainty of historical accuracy. In contrast to secular history, which sometimes has only one or, at the best, several documents with a gap of almost a thousand years between the events and the copies, the New Testament has over twenty thousand, with a gap between the events and the first copies being only a couple decades. Quite a feat, considering the lack of people who could read and write, the fact that the printing press wasn’t invented yet, that Jesus was in no extraordinary position, and the strict writing procedure for Scriptures. Any mistake, whether a letter was omitted, added, or even in the wrong space, would mean the scroll would be destroyed.
