The time has come again when an Atheist asshole like me reads another story about how someone fell back into their faith and reflects on his own firm beliefs. Lee Strobel wrote about being an Atheist while his Agnostic wife converted to Christianity and his quest to find the truth after finding his wife's positive changes in character. He found historic evidence to warrant Christian stories. However, I fail to see the connection between these fiction stories and positive changes in character. I do respect the moral value of religion --sometimes-- but there is an underlying supercilious attachment to Christian faith that nullifies my overall respect towards Christianity. One does not need a religion to have a moral code. I do completely respect, however, the religions such as Buddhism in which no fictional story is needed and everyone loves everyone. Zen be with you all.
