ATHEISTS DEMAND THAT THE RELIGIOUS PROVE THEIR CASE
The religious prove their case but atheists don’t like the proof. Take Jesus’ words in John’s gospel, all those promises are fulfilled if you believe Jesus is Christ and adhere to the commands given in this gospel, so when you see the promises fulfilled you know the gospel is a faithful account and Jesus Christ died for you. It is reproducible proof on which you can depend. But atheists don’t like it that reproducing it requires adherence, which is too big a price to pay, they feel.
The case for atheism, on the other hand, is fundamentally flawed; “I think therefore I am” is subjective nonsense and makes science self-referentially incoherent. Religion is merely an absence of atheism. If atheism is nonsense, that alone is enough of a case for religion.
