Atheism's unhappy realities

Atheism doesn’t mix very well with reality. It leads directly to denying humanity, as I’ve been saying, but that doesn’t just mean atheism is wrong. It’s also grievously sad. For all the conflict they raise against Christianity, I still try to keep that in mind in conversation with atheists. I do better when I don’t just focus on what’s wrong, but also on the life they’re missing out on.

What they’re missing is obvious enough from scripture, but sometimes I find it valuable to show it from their own words. I saw it more than once over this past weekend.

The first was a line I ran across from Sam Harris, whose post-9/11 book The End of Faith is often credited with launching New Atheism.
