No God???


"There is plenty of evidence for God [...] But there is scant evidence on the other side" cries Stephen Green, national director of Christian Voice from the roof of his church in Hounslow. Really Stephen? Is that right? Heard of a guy called Charles Darwin? I think he came up with some evidence that constitutes a bit more than 'Scant'. Even if you are a Theist you'd appreciate that The Theory of Evolution was a bit more than 'scant' evidence.

Irrespective of whether you actually believe in the Christian Bible, surely you should still advocate Free Speech. If you believe that Jesus Christ was the son of God and you read the Bible with intensity, you'd know that Jesus was a large advocate for Free Speech. Maybe not though. I suppose it depends on your interpretation. Stephen goes on to say;

"There is plenty of evidence for God, from people's personal experience, to the complexity, interdependence, beauty and design of the natural world"

That's not really 'evidence' is it? Evidence would be God coming down, teaching you to fly and it being caught on CCTV.

What I'm saying is that Athiests have to deal with a barrage of pro-Theistic banners and why shouldn't it fly the other way around? We all think what we think, and we should be able to coexist and be able to promote our beliefs be it via advertising on billboards or handing out flyers. Agree?
