I used to be an atheist/agnostic even though I was brought up in a strong Christian household. Through my study of Physics and Mathematics I again found faith. I can pinpoint the turn around to two things. The first chip on my shoulder was blown off when I learned that the sun and moon were EXACTLY the same size at their zenith in the sky. The second blow came when I really started to understand the universal constant “e” (elementary charge).
Could you elaborate? Why would this make you return to faith?
And if the sun and the moon are exactly the same size, then why do we have annular eclipses?
It is a question that can never be answered by science - it is answered by faith. I may not be able to prove God's existence or the possibility of life after death, but Jesus Christ told us he exists, and life does continue on - all we have to do is believe in him.
If I choose to follow God's Commandments, live a good life and put my faith in him, then I have hope from his promises that I will live on past my physical end. If I choose not to believe, then death is the final stop for me, with no hope beyond that. Now which is the smarter choice?
