(Although, many try.) It's always seemed more of an emotional issue to me as well.<br><br>I would therefore propose to someone like Dawkins that "real evidence" leads to belief in God, rather than belief in athiesm. Which, to me, takes a far greater leap in faith and rational thinking than to believe there is a God - who reveals Himself everyday.<br><br>Get this man a copy of "Mere Christianity"! And pray that we will soon start reading the Bible! :-)<br><br>God Bless!<br>DaleDale Scheihagennoreply@blogger.com
