A Challenge to Atheists (Mar 08)

We would be interested to know if anyone has a better (ie more convincing) example of arguments made against Atheism than the attached article, and in particular the arguments put forward by Prof Richard Dawkins in 'The God Delusion'. Is this really the best that people of faith can come up with?

Author, Dr Graham Tomlin, writes: "Richard Dawkins reminds me of someone passionately convinced of the virtues of sight, confronted by people trying to explain to him the concept of smell. Such a person might be absolutely committed to the view that vision alone can explain reality. Perhaps the main problem with Dawkins is that he starts the discussion in the wrong place. Nowhere does the Bible show any interest in the question 'Is there a God?' The writers do not try to prove it, demonstrate it, or argue for it. They simply assume it. This is the only way that God can be found... The God of the Bible is not interested in whether we happen to entertain the opinion that he exists or not. He is interested in changing us. And only those prepared for that challenge will ever find him." (UK Focus, March 2008)
