What Will You Say To An Atheist?
85 Answers
Because what you see happening in the world today is a result of man’s trying to get along without God.
Answers
Since a majority of the world's humans still believe in a God or Gods, the state of the world tiday must be more based in trying to get along assuming a God, not without one.

I quite fancy that Naomi. They say you truly know you're a believer or not when facing death.
Did I want forgiveness and angels and "paradise"? No.
Did I crave life because of some further purpose? No.
Did I look for a god to look after me? No
Goodlife will never convince me and I know from what I have said he/she won't try because they know I am not able to be convinced of something that isn't true. Nothing happened to me to convince me at the point of near death and at that stage it should have. I demand proof and Goodlife can't provide it.

Completely wrong.
Most of today's Society has been formed by religious nutters who had carte blanche up to a few decades ago. The blooming number of non religious people is due to a more free thinking Society and it is no longer considered funny to not believe in a creator, but accept the tangible proof of Science.
Even moderate religious believers have to concede that the practice of evolution can no longer be denied with wishywashy nambypamby false postulations that God put the bones there 'to test faith'.

I had a youngish JW on my doorstep the other day. I told him that if we both went round to the local coffee shop for a chat I was far more likely to turn him into an atheist than he was to turn me into a religionist. He turned on his heel and vanished.
Shame, really - I was quite looking forward to seeing the look on his face when he realised he didn't have a leg to stand on.

As far as some atheists are concerned, belief in God has produced far more massacres and conflicts than goodness.
Some say they are Christian but in fact they are atheist.
Ironically, some people have stopped believing in God because of what they were taught in church.
Too many pews are filled on Sunday with practical atheists—disguised nonbelievers who behave during the rest of the week as if God did not exist. Such is the fruit of religious Christendom, which outwardly professes to be Christian but whose heart inwardly is far removed from true Christianity. In this respect is like the religious leaders of the first century about whom Jesus said: “You hypocrites, Isaiah aptly prophesied about you, when he said, ‘This people honors me with their lips, yet their heart is far removed from me.’”—Matt. 15:7, 8.
They say they believe in God but do they recognize the moral value of belief in God?
An experience of one former atheist, who was a social worker, cme to be impressed by the Bible’s ability to influence lives He said that having spent many years, with very limited success trying to help people change behaviour that was damaging to them and others he found it remarkable to seer how dramatically people could change for the better.

You see it takes effort to establish a sound and reasonable basis for faith in something you cannot see.
Many scientists of note have testified to their faith in God. Professor Zimmerman of Harvard, once an atheist, said “Great scientists were supposed . . . to believe less and less in God as they progresse . It was fashionable to make fun of religion,because its meaning was not understood by immature scholars.” Victor Hess of Fordham University, Nobel Prize winner, said: “Can a good scientist believe in God? I think the answer is: Yes . . . I must confess that in all my years of research in physics and geophysics I have never found one instance in which scientific discovery was in conflict with religious Faith.”
