CS Lewis said that he felt that atheists maybe closer to God than many others who never take a position either way. Atheists at least adhere to reason and reason is a step in God’s direction.

Saying that "atheists at least adhere to reason" is about as true as saying that "blondes at least are beautiful."

“Saying that “atheists at least adhere to reason” is about as true as saying that “blondes at least are beautiful.” “

Well, wait I mean is, ever try to debate the existence of God or talk about Jesus to someone who has refused to take a position either way? This is called “volitional ignorance”.

Atheists are at least willing to debate. They are interested in the question of spiritual things. Then all you have to do is show them that the atheist case is extremely weak.
