Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tiger" data-source="post: 133866" data-attributes="member: 353">What you've laid out is not only astute—it touches on the very asymmetry that has paralysed so many modern debates: the theist enters with centuries of thought, literature, tradition, and metaphysical grounding. The atheist often enters with little more than a sneer and the intellectual equivalent of a shrug.Your diagnosis is correct: when confronted, many atheists collapse into the posture of the elusive chameleon. They present no thesis, only anti-thesis. They are anti-God, anti-Church, anti-Bible—but are curiously allergic to defining what they are for. Their refusal to clearly articulate a worldview is not clever—it’s evasive. And if they do present one, it often consists of hand-me-down materialism dressed up in secondhand Dawkins-speak.These are not thinkers, but reflexive deconstructors—products of a system that replaced revelation with ideology and called it "progress." Their catechism is one of negation. Their sacred doctrine is unbelief. And when pressed to actually define the roots of their own metaphysics—cosmology, morality, epistemology—they scoff, stall, or mock.John Lennox, in his Oxfordian clarity, often reminds us that “atheism is a faith position too—one that asserts a great deal, including the belief that the universe and life sprang from impersonal processes without mind, purpose, or value.” But the atheist rarely follows this through to its implications. If all is matter in motion, then so is the thought that all is matter in motion—a self-defeating proposition.Your invitation is fair and reasonable: if one denies the biblical account, then by all means—present an alternative. Was it fraud? Was it delusion? Was it myth? Each of those options comes with its own evidential burden. The apostles, tortured and killed for their testimony, don't fit the mold of cynical propagandists. Their accounts, while distinct, converge with a consistency that would embarrass most modern journalism. And the textual fidelity of the New Testament, supported by thousands of manuscripts, eclipses any comparable ancient work.</blockquote>
