Irrational Unbelief

by Perry Hall

When speaking with Atheists and Agnostics, a common complaint is, "When I read the Bible, I see a God that does things that I don't agree with such as...."

So their reason for unbelief is that they don't like the evidence! How would that thinking work in the real world?

• "I don't like the conclusion of this science experiment; therefore, science doesn't exist."
• "I don't like the way the referees called that game; therefore, basketball doesn't exist."

Do you see the non-scientific thinking process? Not liking the conclusion is not a reason to disregard the evidence. If someone concludes that God can't be real because they don't like what God does, that doesn't disprove God. What needs to be done is a continual study of what you have trouble with. Guess what...we all have questions. God being real has nothing to do with what I think.
