"I don't have enough faith to believe that there is no God" - Mark Lowry.
It takes a considerable amount of conviction(s) to hold firm to some of our strongest life beliefs.
Breaking free from them would require thesame or twice as much life's experiences than what led us to believing so strongly about them in the first place.
This beautiful milky way couldn't have formed itself or existed on its own term and conditions.
The night and the day couldn't have given themselves such a clearly defined yet intricately different job description.
The times and the seasons, the waters and the continents couldn't have set themselves apart at such astonishingly different time zones.
Even the earth's rotation and or revolution that we give credit for these things too couldn't have set themselves in motion for aeons in orbit.
Different people everywhere, diverse cultures, differing tongues and tribes. Discoveries and discoveries, inventions and inventions.
Time and science points to one fact - the existence of a super-being somewhere on whose masterplan the earth and its fullness have their very being.
And I really don't care what name you choose to call him - Allah, God or whatever way you choose to worship him (At least, not today!) .
The other day, one of my teachers called him time-dimensional.
I choose to call him the ageless and the orderly one.
And though we are yet to see him with our both eyes, we can feel his presence in every of our discoveries.
We are surrounded by the beautiful work of his hands and and are somewhat convinced of his existence.
In all, I agree that everyone has a right to beliefs.
But, I think it takes a lot of faith to believe that there is no God. It takes a lot of faith to be an Atheist!
