I Do Not Belive The Athiest

We are studying the doctrine of God in the 10th grade bible class that I teach at GCA. Today's discussion was called "The Atheist Dilemma". We were trying to figure out what makes an atheist an atheist. Personally, I do not believe there is such a person who believes that there is no God. Romans 1:19-21 tell us that all people have an inner sense of God. The short answer we discovered in class today is this, atheist claim they deny the existence of a god.

We came to this conclusion: they only way anyone can prove that no God exists is to be a God himself. What?! We discovered the reason why...

The total amount of information anyone can amass is infinitesimal compared to the vastness of the universe and the immeasurable amount of information it contains.
Based upon this fact, the qualities or attributes a person would have to possess in order to attain all information necessary to prove God does not exist would be OMNIPRESENCE and OMNISCIENCE. These very attributes are part of God! Therefore, since no finite human being can prove God does NOT exist because God may exist beyond one's comprehension or experience.
I don't believe the atheist.
I belive in GOD!

Wow, I was just explaining to Caleb, who now works with a professed 'atheist' that there is no such thing, and that his co-worker was really agostic - unless he claimed to have infinite knowledge. Because if somewhere out there in the realm of what is unknown to the atheist intelect, there could be a God, well, they are already Agnostics...I step closer to belief
