S. Lewis' stepsons today and found it interesting.<BR/><BR/>I know that Lewis was an agnostic/atheist at one point, but didn't know the story behind it.<BR/><BR/>Apparently, his mother passed away when he was young, and althoug he had been raised Christian, he rejected it because he was angry at God for taking his mother.<BR/><BR/>So, he went about trying to rationalize God away.<BR/><BR/>His stepson brought up a very interesting point about rational minds, though. <BR/><BR/>I paraphrase, but he said something along the lines that "the rational mind might rationalize God away, but rationally, God must exist, so the rational mind will inevitably come back to fact there is a God". <BR/><BR/>The harder people try to prove there is no God, the more they prove there is a God!bigsiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13435879973761006243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13746420.post-1135624191953502772005-12-26T13:09:00.000-06:002005-12-26T13:09:00.000-06:00I would love to read it, but I can't find a free v...I would love to read it, but I can't find a free version of the text. So, I'll put in my 2 cents without it.<BR/><BR/>"Get your own Dirt"...<BR/><BR/>Well even by stealing from God, they just can't do it. The problem is you need proteins to make amino acids and amino acids to make proteins. The phrase "irreducibly complex" comes to mind. Look that up sometime.kermitgrnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558273349123752400noreply@blogger.com
