R.C. Sproul: The Psychology of Atheism 1/2

Infallible Truth does not own in any way this video.

Answers to questions concerning the existence of God are continually demanded by atheists. Why is that? Is it that not all of the atheist's questions have been answered? Actually, they have all the answers they need, and they understand them. So if there is a God, then why are there atheists? In "The Psychology of Atheism," Dr. Sproul explains that it is not a lack of information that is keeping the atheist from believing, it is something else.

The Psychology of Atheism is a lecture from the lecture series 'Defending Your faith.'

@tjobv You are being very condescending to a man who actually is a genius. He is being reasonable and rational How does something create itself before it is? If you can answer that question by defying logic or breaking the law of non contradiction then my friend I believe you are the Genius? Think through your suppositions just a little and I think you will see the fallacy of your ideology.

that he didn't know he wasn't supposed to do, because a talking snake tricked our ancestor to do it, only for him to come back to life three days later, only to ascend into heaven, just to save humanity, despite the fact that this being is supposedly omnipotent and omniscient and omnipresent and could have just snapped his fingers to fix everything.

Do YOU need to go see a doctor?

during the bronze age. We live in the silicon age. Better books have been written. Many mysteries of the universe, such as shooting stars, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions have been explained as natural phenomenon. You don't have to run hiding in your cave every time lightning strikes.

Now let's take a closer look of your philosophy: You believe that a man who was his own father and born of a virgin sacrificed himself to himself to forgive us for something our ancestor did

[DeimosSaturn]

"you should consider to get head checked by a good Doctor" The problem is, most psychiatrists are atheists. As are more doctors and scientists. Being a nihilist is not by any means any kind of sign or symptom or cause of mental illness or depression. Nihilism is simply acknowledging that no tangible evidence has been presented that the universe or life has any meaning or purpose. You asserting that life has meaning is just that, an assertion, based on a book of second hand accounts written

[DeimosSaturn]

"All of life are nothing but accidental chunks of cells" Another strawman! Abiogenesis, a scientific field that examines how self replicating materials can emerge from a complex chemical bath, and the theory of Evolution, explains how cells evolved from amino acids, and how animals evolved from cells. The cause is explained, but the meaning is up to each of us to determine as individuals. And in my personal opinion, there is no meaning.

@DeimosSaturn

Well consider your reality for a minute genius:

The Universe came out absolutely nothing, and goes back to absolutely nothing. All of life are nothing but accidental chunks of cells, with no meaning or cause. Good or evil do not exist, only what we personally think on what is good or evil.

If you actually believe all of this, you should consider to get head checked by a good Doctor. Luckily, i know you dont believe this in your heart, even though your mouth proclaims it...

Wow! Theists are already in the 19th century.

[DeimosSaturn]

Religious people believe in religion because of the fear of death. Every religion promises that there is no such thing as true death so long as one abides by their ideology and puts money in their pot of course. Realists (the opposite of religionists) accept reality for what it is. They accept death for what it is. They do not lie to themselves and trick themselves into believing they will live forever in another dimension.
