Atheists pose some of the most ridiculous and annoying questions imaginable: Does the Christian God already know if the world is going to end by human hands or natural causes? Does the Christian God know the exact date and time the sun will die? If a boy gets hit by a meteorite next week, wouldn't the Christian God have known about its trajectory for millions of years and yet failed to move the boy 10 feet out of the way? If every human on Earth died, would the Christian God continue to keep Saturn orbiting the sun? ______ More of a debate primer than a literary work of scholarship, this book gets into the mind of the atheist by revealing the absurdity of their faulty logic and tactics in their attack on Christianity.
