“The use or abuse of Christianity in contradiction to the very message of the gospel reveals not the gospel for what it is, but the heart of man. That is why atheism is so bankrupt as a view of life, for it miserably fails to deal with the human condition as it really is.”

— Ravi Zacharias

“[F]ails to deal with the human condition as it really is.”  And by this he means sin.  To prove that sin is actual, you must prove the existence of the original sinner.  That cannot be done.  Adam didn’t exist; Satan doesn’t exist.  Therefore, there was no original sinner.  You may respond and say, sin is simply an offense against god—our very nature for we have fallen away from god.  Then it will be incumbent on you to prove that your god exists; you can’t do that either.  I am damn sure I can prove the contrary.  Point of all this:  Christianity invented a “human condition” and pretends to provide a cure for what amounts to a self-inflicted wound.  Atheism is simply disbelief in gods; thus, atheists aren’t required to acknowledge an invented human condition.  This is the second time I’ve responded to one of your quotes (read here).  That simply means that I don’t like your apologetic garbage on the atheism tag.  Therefore, please do one or the other:  step up or step out.
