“Science does not have the right to give to me my reason for being. But I am going to take science’s view because I want this world not to have meaning. A meaningless world frees me to pursue my own erotic and political desires.”

He was working off of a supposition, just like creationists are. They have decided what they want to be true first, and ignore evidence otherwise.

If God doesn’t exist, then we will never have evidence for his existence.

On the other hand—if the triune God of the Bible is real, then the evidence for his existence is everything in the entire universe.

But my point was this. Belief in God is said to be “Just about buttressing your fairy tale because you’re so afraid to die.”

But the same argument works for atheism. It frees the atheist to pursue worldly pleasures. (The advantage unique to Christianity is the believer doesn’t have to hide anything.)

My supposition is the God of the Bible has not lied to us with His inspired Holy Words but your mileage seems to vary ~ quite a lot. :’)
