Fellow minion Sastra checking in... You know, whenever things get dull among atheists, there are a few surefire topics to spark some conversation. You can always do the atheism vs. agnosticism debate, of course. That's usually good for hours. Free Will perks at least some people up. But bring up a symbol for atheism ... And here it is!

What does the atheistic philosophy offer in a way of a moral standard? Often it is contended by the atheistic community that the God of the Bible and people who trying to follow the Bible, don't really understand morals. Can the atheist have a better moral system than those with religious beliefs? Join Kyle Butt as he examines this topic.

By Metropolitan Hierotheos of Nafpaktos and Agiou Vlasiou The French writer and philosopher Voltaire (1694-1778) is known as an enlightener, and many who consider him an enlightener assume he was an atheist, that he didn't believe in God. But this cannot be observed in actuality. Recently Anastasios Philippides sent me a photograph of the inscription on the tomb of Voltaire, which is in the Pantheon of Paris. The inscription, written in French, came from Voltaire himself: "Poet, philosopher, and historian; he elevated the human mind, and taught men they should be free. He defended Colas, Sirven, De-La-Barre, and Montbailly. He combated the atheists and fanatics, and inculcated tolerance; he was the champion of the rights of man against feudal servitude." In this inscription we see the teaching and work of Voltaire, who says that he combated against atheism and fanaticism, was on behalf of respect for human rights, and was in opposition to feudalism. This does not make a striking impression, because Voltaire, like most of the enlighteners, was not an atheist, but a deist. Deism or theism accepts the existence of a supreme being who does not intervene in human affairs. Newton's laws of gravity led him towards a wonder of the cosmos, so that he came to believe in the existence of a supreme intelligence, God as creator of the cosmos. Indeed, he said, "If there were no God, we would have had to invent one." However, the God of Voltaire was not the God of the Jewish or Christian tradition, but "an inaccessible and unclear entity," who is beyond the human intellect. Thus, Voltaire, like most enlighteners, was not an atheist, since he believed in a creator of the cosmos, but he was an antichrist, that is, he was against Christ as creator who also regenerated man and the cosmos, and who personally governs the cosmos. This view of his is not unrelated to western Christianity, which he encountered in the western world, especially through scholasticism which is associated with feudalism, the undermining of human freedom and human rights, as well as the appearance of fanaticism. Voltaire was not only against the metaphysical Christianity he encountered in his life, but he combated against the power of the state, which was inspired by the views of Catholicism, which is why he spoke in favor of human free will. We in the Orthodox Church do not believe in an abstract God, in an invisible being, but in Christ God, who became man, loved humanity, lived among us, and conquered death which was the greatest enemy of humanity. Therefore, we believe in a liberating God. This is why we are against every form of atheism and every religion that professes a God of hate, fanaticism and feudalism.

What Is Atheism? Lack of belief in God or a denial that God exists? Can atheists explain the origin of the universe, life, rationality, or morality? Keaton Halley and Dr Jonathan Sarfati explain why the revisionist definition of atheism as a “lack of belief” is just a gimmick to shift the burden of proof. It’s not only mistaken, but a dishonest debate trick. Atheists have a burden of proof that they cannot sustain, because the evidence for God from creation is plain to all. In fact, it is so clear that those who deny it are “without excuse” (Romans 1:18–20).

Faith has been falsely defined as "belief in spite of a lack of evidence.” However, even even an atheist is forced to take things on faith.

Who has blind faith? Often, what turns people away from religion is an incorrect or inadequate concept of God. The discussion of [the true] God in this series is based on the Islamic monotheistic concept of God: The One and Only God, Absolute, Non-human, Who “begets not and is not begotten,” Indivisible, Ever-living, Transcendent, the
