[Cicero]

"The fool has said in his heart there is no God."

Over thousands of years of recorded history, the great majority of the most intelligent people have believed in God. There's something very provincial about modern-day atheists priding themselves in their ignorance.

Modern-day? I thought this trend has begun in late 1700s and continues unabated. In fact, it's seems prevalent now, given that less than 10% of Europeans identify themselves as Christian. If anyone is relegaetd to "provinces" it is the religious, it appears to me.

The last great defense of the existence of God is probably Emannuel Kant's "Critique of Pure Reason". Since then the Department of Theology has ceased to be an intellectually respectable part of institutions of higher learning.

Over thousands of years of recorded history, the great majority of the most intelligent people believed the world was flat and the earth was the center of the universe. It turned out they were wrong. No truth can be established on the basis of how many people believe something, or how long it has been believed.
