An Atheist No More 4th And Last

This is my forth and last post in this series, and, perhaps, the most important. One of the reasons theism is so frightening to an atheist is not so much the reality of God's existence, but the questions which logically follow belief in His existence. Antony Flew opens the next question in the second paragraph below. Has God revealed himself in ways other than physical creation? Has He spoken to us? Has He told us things we could not learn any other way? Yes... He has. My blog is not about atheism... it is about that revelation... that light. I try to follow it where ever it leads.

"Now, all this might sound abstract and impersonal. How, it might be asked, do I as a person respond to the discovery of an ultimate Reality that is an omnipresent and omniscient Spirit? I must say again that the journey to my discovery of the Divine has thus far been a pilgrimage of reason. I have followed the argument where it has led me. And it has led me to accept the existence of a self-existent, immutable, immaterial, omnipotent, and omniscient Being."

"Where do I go from here? In the first place, I am entirely open to learning more about the divine Reality, especially in the light of what we know about the history of nature. Second, the question of whether the Divine has revealed itself in human history remains a valid topic of discussion. You cannot limit the possibilities of omnipotence except to produce the logically impossible. Everything else is open to omnipotence."

"As I have said more than once, no other religion enjoys anything like the combination of a charismatic figure like Jesus and a first-class intellectual like St. Paul. If you're wanting omnipotence to set up a religion, it seems to me that this is the one to beat!", [Antony Flew with Roy Abraham Varghese, There is a God]

This book can be purchased at many book stores including Amazon.com, or as an e version at various sources including e-books. I own both. A hardback copy to keep, and an e copy for quoting.
