A downward Cast Telescope is Needed to Find the Bottom of the Depths of the Depravity that Enlightened People of Your World Have Gone Down Into
Atheist response to one of my notes:
"you put a ton of effort into not proving anything. I admire your passion I guess? It doesn't bother me one bit that you have this belief, what bothers me is the persistence in pushing the belief onto others. Your standards for evidence falls short and until you can provide real evidence just keep the fantasies to yourself. Get better evidence and stop pointing to a book written by bronze age tribesman. There are far more enlightening writers much older than that book."
McCann reply:
It’s funny how often things Jesus addressed to religious unsaved people (the Jews of His day) in the Bible are so applicable to atheists as well. Wonder why that similarity exists? Anyway. Here's Christ addressing the Pharisees who also wanted Him to not speak the things He spoke to the public:
John 9:39 And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.
40 And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?
41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
Enlightened atheists. A contradiction in terms since Christ is the essence of Light (the Lord God is a sun...Psalm 84:11).
True enlightenment is only possible once the darkness of a sinner's mind has experienced the presence of Christ entering into it:
Ephesians 1:17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened;
And for everyone else, whether religious Pharisee or professor of the simple "no god" gospel:
Ephesians 4:17 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,
18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:
Your world. Not mine. Look out there – do you see enlightened minds? And man's wisdom emanating forth sparks of light shining a path for mankind to follow and ascend upwards to higher plateaus of betterment for the species. Ah, not quite.
We all know as we look at your world that the direction one must look is downward. A downward cast telescope is needed to find the bottom of the depths of the depravity enlightened men and women such as the members of this group have gone down into.
So please save nonsensical ramblings about secular enlightenment. It’s not that I don't believe it. But neither do any of you. It’s the pit of hell on earth. And we all know it.
