On a crystal cloudless day on the Island of Maui a young man told me that he was God. I told him he doesn't have enough faith to believe that he is in fact God. He vehemently disagreed so I proposed a way to end the debate stalemate: I pointed to the crystal-blue ocean and asked him to walk on the water to prove that he was indeed a manifestation of the deity. He declined and went his way. He didn't have enough faith in his absurd worldview to step out on the ocean blue. Moreover I agree with the title of this work: "I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist" forasmuch as atheism is self-nullifying and self-stultifying. Co-authors Norman L. Geisler and Frank Turek provide succinct, accessible, and commanding reasons that atheism is rationally impossible.
This readable and useful volume is endorsed by:
--Phillip E. Johnson: Author, Darwin on Trial and Reason in the Balance
--Lee Strobel: Author "The Case for Christ" and "The Case for Faith"
--Hank Hanegraaff: President of Christian Research Institute and Host of "Bible Answer Man."
--Josh McDowell: author of "Reasons" and "Evidence That Demands a Verdict."
--William A. Dembski: ID advocate.
And the Forward by David Limbaugh: Author of "Absolute Power" and "Persecution" who writes: "I already know ten people to whom I will give this book. It's truly a Godsend."
New presentations of many standard theistic arguments including:
- The moral argument
- Cosmological argument
- The Historicity of Christ
- Intelligent Design
- And a solution to the problem of evil.
Dr. Geisler and Coauthor Turek deliver significant arguments and truths that demonstrate the necessity of theism and the rational ridiculousness of non-theism. All atheists will either admit that their worldview requires too much faith to affirm or will dig deeper into the deep hole of self-deception. I heartily commend this book equally to theists and atheists and it makes a fine gift for high school or college age students. This reader-friendly volume is persuasive and compelling.
