Good day, gentle reader! I hope you are well. I've chosen nothing New under the sun (nNuts) as my blog name since it helps me keep perspective in my own life (this is a big deal with me - I'm easily . . . uh, easy . . . um, oh yes! easily distracted.)
Based upon various reading & some of my own thinking, I believe the idea that a person or society has come up with something "New" has given some the handle they used to flush God out of their lives.
I adore science, but how much scientific work has gone into Disproving God's Existence? How much shouting & anger is spewed by folks claiming He is not real?
My brother (rabidfrogblog) lately showed a video clip of big city dwellers of whom, most chalked up Christians as uneducated, backward, & generally awful. This attitude is hardly new, George Elliot (famous writer, centuries past) up & decided one Sunday, she had a great modern way of thinking & no longer needed God.
Why are so many beset with the importance of Disproving God's Existence? Why is this a centuries old tradition?
I believe that some of the time it is because they fear. Fear to admit His power. Fearful of giving up their own supposed "control" over their lives. Fear to reconcile His reality with their innermost heart.
Think about something you don't believe in. Do you even care enough about it to give it a moment of your time? Prob'ly not. Then why would an unbeliever expend so much energy? Hmmm . . . .
Coming Soon: Peace! its not just for "people you already like or get along with" anymore.
