Billy Graham | Atheism is a fad only fools follow

DEAR BILLY GRAHAM: Why does atheism seem to be growing so much in recent years? I guess there have always been people around who didn’t believe in God, but atheists seem to be in the public eye a lot more than they used to be. — M.M.

DEAR M.M.: Yes, atheism has been in the public eye more in recent years, largely because of a few atheists who’ve captured the public’s attention through their books. They aren’t large in number, but they do tend to be aggressive in promoting their ideas.

Why have they drawn so much attention? One reason, I believe, is because they know how to use the media very effectively. They also appeal to people who want to be free from God or any moral restraints. Like the philosophers of Paul’s day who were constantly looking for new ideas to debate, many people today eagerly latch on to the latest fad (see Acts 17:21). Atheism attracts their attention, at least for a while.

In reality, however, modern atheists have very little new to say. In fact, atheism has been around for thousands of years; even the Psalmist, writing hundreds of years before Christ, referred to them: “The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God’ ” (Psalm 14:1).

Don’t be misled by those who claim God doesn’t exist, because he does. And the ultimate reason we know it is because he came down from heaven and walked on this earth in the person of Jesus Christ. Christ was God in human flesh, and he proved it by rising from the dead

It will be the fools who will not strive for change (Advancement), because of this those who donot want any change, provide a favorable atmosphere for the propagation of this foolishness.

Good luck.

Why not doing something meaningful?

What about playing Billy Graham's bible blaster?

Memo, it was not an interview. Mr. Graham has a syndicated newspaper column where he answers readers questions. Like an advice column. I suspect he doesn't really write the answers anymore. 

 

You may of course agree that only fools are atheists, but I don't think you can acurrately call it a fad.

Why is he calling it fad? While he admits "In fact, atheism has been around for thousands of years".

what a fool!

there is something funny in his answers!! especially what he said about Jesus :S

I think not all atheist are fools, because some of them know that there is God but they only try to decieve others! OR they want to believe that there is no God to follow their desires!

robotic  in what way? I walk a little robotically now, but that's a physical thing and nothing to do with my lack of belief in a god.
