Atheism

Atheism is gaining ground, and its mass spread to all impresses. It is no longer the privilege of an enlightened minority, but it expresses the expected standard of all strata of society. The whole civilian consciously built on the rejection of God, more precisely to deny any dependence on extraterrestrial reality. Science does not need the hypothesis of God. And on the other hand, theoretically, either God is not omnipotent because He does not remove evil, or if He wants to avoid removing it, He is not loving.
Atheism, thus built on denial, has none own metaphysical content, no constructive philosophy. Rarely it is usually announced explicitly; its predominant, democratically widespread form is formless practical atheism. The philosophical after the wish came only in the second round to justify the attitude and provided an alibi. His reasons are never and cannot be genuinely rational because they would not survive; they are empirical, vastly practical, and pragmatic. This fact explains that the problem ceased to interest a person; the more he cares about politics or economics, and religious faith no longer matters to him, does not say. This attitude is reinforced by the often justified distrust of philosophers who abandon their skepticism.
And betray their social function. St. Paul was well aware of what he was doing when his sermon focused on what immediately provoked a violent reaction of contemplative reason. For human thought, the Incarnation will always be the fool of novelty and offense. This thinking by its historical critique Vladimir Soloviev – Epochs of spiritual life demythologizes, distinguishes between the historical layman and Christ dogmatic statements of faith. The archaic state of knowledge of the past arouses the distrust of every scientist today and makes him less willing to consider the alleged “revelation.” There is no certainty whether an event happened, and the truth, hidden in the centuries, is for contemporary actual ism; either way, she is unacceptable. It is a need to distinguish verifiable facts and texts that are based on myth. It is inconceivable, even insulting, that God enters time and entrusts its truth to a handful of suspicious disciples and the fragile transmission of several texts written twenty centuries ago. Jesus’ life then appears as an anecdotal event without any guarantee of objectivity. How can it be that historians hardly? Captured fact will hit a man’s heart from the streets of the 20th century? How can an event fix in time and space claim eternal value, the authority of God, and the broad reach for the salvation of every person? To the critical mind, this is monstrous disproportionate,  even unbearable. Man, Jesus could in Pales quite well and exist well. Nor does it seem unacceptable, so the deification of man Jesus by his disciples, rather than the humanization of God. Moral ideal, philosophical concept, maybe in the extreme eventually get the divine title. Still, the philosopher rejects the dialogue between man and God-man, rejects God who speaks as a man, a God who has a human face. So, it crumbles to dust the apostolic authority of the witnesses and with it the authority of Scripture. For the lack of listeners, it is more than ever a voice that screams.

A person who claims to be God is unacceptable to the Jews, a God who is becoming a man is an outrage to the Greeks. The Old Testament knows God but does not know God  before the state; Greek mysteries and knew a giant from a suffering god, but he did not know a God. The New Testament reveals both.

in the historical emptiness. Just like the Athenian sages once did today, a street man rejects every sermon: “We’ll hear about it, but sometimes “(Acts 17:32).
This genuine difficulty needs to be paid attention to be clear about what faith requires from our spirits, and know the reason for this claim. Unfortunately, believers and unbelievers profoundly deepen each other they ignore; they do not understand because they belong to different anthropological types. Already for St. Gregor of Nazian, man, an age not governed by the Holy Spirit, is a unique human species.
Believers naively make the argument of fear of the Court or metaphysical fears of death. Still, at the current level of development
resurrection from the dead and the whole classical issue of religion, they do not touch the atheist consciousness because, in this state of advanced degeneration, their traces are no longer even in the subconscious. We observe a profound transformation of the human substrate.
It is essential to understand this because the existence of the real spiritual life, the fact of a holy life, the presence of a saint the man above the always formless crowd will be for atheism, which wants to be systematic, spiritual, and totalitarian, an unbearable thorn in the eye. Sooner or later, it will become impossible for dynamic faith and militant atheism not to know each other or coexisted peacefully. Messianic proclamations will reach a limit on which they will stand sharply against each other and be eliminated. And indeed, there is already a clear and evenly authoritative one a way to present the problem of faith and to put atheism into error, a specific confrontation that does not allow any fraud, no escape, no “asylum ignorance.”
