The Bible Calls Atheist Richard Dawkins A “Fool”

Psalms 14:1, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.  They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.”

Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins (born 1941) is an avowed atheist. I watched a documentary today that he produced titled, “The God Delusion,” which I will show you in a moment, but first here is a tremendous statement by Pastor John Cumming (1807-1881)...

Richard Dawkins - The God Delusion - Full Documentary

There are umpteen problems with the documentary. To begin, Dawkins is woefully ignorant of the things of God, because he doesn't have the indwelling Holy Spirit (Romans 8:9). 
1st Corinthians 2:14-16, “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.”
The “natural man is the unregenerate, or unsaved, man. When we trust Jesus as our personal Savior, we are born-again, and have been regenerated [or, having He (Jesus) who is the beginning (Revelation 1:8) born in us].

Throughout Richard Dawkins' lame documentary he blasphemes God and Christianity. One unfair thing that he does is to try to discredit true Christianity, by showing the hypocrisies and wickedness of the Roman Catholic cult. Dawkins addresses the Catholic false doctrine of The Assumption of Mary (official Catholic dogma since 1950). I agree with Dawkins that there is nothing in the Holy Bible to support such a bizarre claim. In fact, I agree with all of Dawkins' rejection of organized religion. Throughout the documentary he shows the idiocy, weirdness and insanity of religious cults. I despise those idiots too! Please don't group Charismatic nutcases, religious hypocrites and corrupt ministers with genuine Bible Christendom, because they are not the same thing.

Dawkins also uses cheap goofy sounding religious music in his video. He has the song 'Onward Christian Soldier' playing in the background, which sounds like it was recorded on a $35 cheap Casio keyboard in Cha Cha mode. It sounds like circus music. I was just waiting for a clown to appear on the screen next...lol. Clearly, Dawkins is trying to make Christianity look as stupid as he can in the documentary. It just makes Dawkins appear manipulative!!!

Dawkins calls teaching children Christian doctrine, “Programmed Learning.” But the truth is that forcing the lies of evolutionary theories on children is equally, “Programmed Learning.” Adults always decide what the children under their influence will be taught. That is just the reality of life. Our government has no business educating our children. That was never the intended purpose of government by our founding fathers. The government's sole purpose is to protect our person, property and freedom. It's not the government's jobs to tamper with the economy. The Federal Reserve banking system since 1913 is ungodly criminal fraud!!! Hell is waiting for those evildoers, many of whom are already burning in the fires of Hell.

Richard Dawkins says religion is based on faith, not facts and science. But the same exact thing can be said of the blatant bogus theories of evolution; they are faith based, not rooted in facts or science! There isn't one iota of credible evidence to support the lies of evolution. By the time he died in 1882, Charles Darwin was angered that fools had taken his nonsensical theories bloviated during his youth, and turned them into a major belief system. I think as Darwin grew older he wised up, acknowledging the truth that God is our Creator.

You can freely listen to 'The God Delusion' audio book (it is 11:59 hour long). In his silly book, Dawkins continually falls back on human rationalization. But dear reader, common sense tells us that coincidence, time and luck couldn't have created the amazing universe that we live in. Walt Disney's H2 channel falsely claims that the universe originated from "accidental aftermath" and a "cosmic glitch." If you believe that you are a naïve fool. The only logical answer is God. The inspired Holy Bible says in Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” End of story!

The whole problem with Dawkins' entire argument is that everything he claims is based on his faith that God doesn't exist. He is just as guilty of going by faith as Christians are. Sadly, Dawkins is now 82 years old, nearing the end of his earthly life. Unless he repents of his unbelief, Richard will split Hell wide open (John 3:36; 1st John 2:22; Revelation 20:15, 21:8).

An Honest Thankful Person Knows That God Exists

It blows my mind how anyone could actually believe that God does not exist. I mean, it takes the sun 365.25 days to rotate around the earth. That is why we have "Leap Year" every 4 years (an extra day in February), to compensate for the extra 1/4 day each year. It takes the earth 24 hours to rotate on its axis. If you learn all that amazing astronomy facts, there is absolutely no way that evolution coincidentally made all this happen. Psalms 19:1-3 tells us that nature itself testifies God exists. Also, we read the same thing in Romans 1:20, so that men like Richard Dawkins and Stephen Hawking “are without excuse.”

Our universe has logic, order and stability to it, which only an intelligent Creator could do. Even science tells us that something cannot come from nothing. Anybody who claims that it can, but says there is no God, is a dishonest person. Psalms 8:3-4, “When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?” We have a very good God.

Our galaxy alone is 70,000 lightyears across. That means if a man could travel at the speed of light (which is an astounding 186,282 miles per second), and live 1,000 lifetimes, each one of them to the ripe old age of 70 years old, that is how long it would require a man to make just one journey across the entire distance of the Milky Way galaxy. Wow! Psalms 145:3, “Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.

The Holy Bible Was Given To Humanity By Divine Revelation

God could have simple handed His completed Word to the Apostle John in 96 AD, but instead God chose to reveal His inspired Word to approximately 40 men, over a period of about 1,500 years. These men spoke different languages, came from different backgrounds and countries. They were of various social status, education, intelligence and wealth. One was a tax-collector, others were doctors, farmers, statesmen, educators, Pharisees, fishermen, pastors and some plain old nobodies.

Yet, the 66 books that those holy men of old penned (by the inspiration of God's Holy Spirit) all perfectly harmonize and contain much prophecy. The King James Bible contains 31% prophecy. The Muslim Koran contains none! It has been rightly said that if men could write the Bible they wouldn't, and if thy would they couldn't. I agree. The Holy Bible is like no other book ever written. It is simply absurd to claim there is no God.

Helpful Quotes About The Holy Bible

The following notable quotes from famous men, show their wisdom that mankind cannot govern themselves without the inspired Holy Bible:
“The Bible is no mere book, but a Living Creature, with a power that conquers all who oppose it.” —Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821)

“It is impossible to enslave mentally or socially a Bible-reading people. The principles of the Bible are the groundwork of human freedom.” —Horace Greeley (1811-1872)

“The existence of the Bible, as a book for the people, is the greatest benefit which the human race has ever experienced. Every attempt to belittle it is a crime against humanity.” —Immanuel Kant (1724-1804)

“That book [King James Bible], sir, is the rock on which our republic rests.” —U.S. President Andrew Jackson (1767-1845)

“The Bible has been the Magna Carta of the poor and oppressed. The human race is not in a position to dispense with it.” —Thomas Huxley (1825-1895)

“So great is my veneration for the Bible that the earlier my children begin to read it the more confident will be my hope that they will prove useful citizens of their country and respectable members of society. I have for many years made it a practice to read through the Bible every year.” —U.S. President John Quincy Adams (1767-1848)

“It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible. ” —U.S. President George Washington (1732-1799)

“The Bible, composed by many authors, over a period of many centuries, yet ONE BOOK, is, in itself, the outstanding Miracle of the Ages, bearing aloft its own evidence of its Superhuman Origin.” —Henry H. Halley (1874-1965)

“The Old Testament is an account of a Nation. The New Testament is an account of a MAN, The Nation was founded and nurtured of God to bring the Man into the world.” —Dr. Henry H. Halley (1874-1965)

“Bible reading is an education in itself.” —Lord Tennyson (1809-1892)

“The Bible is worth all other books which have ever been printed.” —Patrick Henry (1736-1799)

“The whole hope of human progress is suspended on the ever growing influence of the Bible.” —U.S. Secretary of State William H. Seward (1801-1872)

“God Himself became a Man, to give mankind a concrete, definite, tangible idea of what kind of Person to think of when we think of God. God is like Jesus. Jesus was God incarnate in human form. His appearance on earth is the Central Event of all history. The Old Testament sets the stage for it. The New Testament describes it. As a man, He lived the most strangely Beautiful Life ever known. He was the Kindest, Tenderest, Gentlest, most Patient, most Sympathetic man that ever lived. He Loved people. He hated to see people in trouble. He loved to Forgive. He loved to Help. He wrought marvelous miracles to feed hungry people. For relieving the suffering He forgot to take food for Himself. Multitudes, weary, pain-ridden, and heart-sick, came to Him, and found healing and relief. It is said of Him, and of no other, that if all the deeds of Kindness that He did were written, the world would not contain the books. That is the kind of man Jesus was. That is the kind of Person God is. Then: He Died, on the Cross, to take away the Sin of the world, to become the Redeemer and Saviour of man. Then: He Rose from the Dead: is Alive Now: not merely an historical character, but a Living Person: the Most Important Fact of History, and Most Vital Force in the world today.” —Dr. Henry H. Halley (1874-1965)

“The reason you don't like the Bible, you old sinner, is because it knows all about you.” —Billy Sunday

“The Bible will always be full of things you cannot understand, as long as you will not live according to those you can understand.” —Billy Sunday
Psalm 14:1 says that only a fool declares in his heart that there is no God. I think that all men, regardless of how atheist they may claim to be, know in their heart of hearts that God exists. Romans 1:28a, “And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind...” God gives them enough rope to hang themselves. 

Please don't misunderstand. We read in 2nd Peter 3:9 that God is NOT willing that any should perish, but that ALL should come to repentance (i.e., change their mind to admit they are a sinner, and by faith receive Jesus Christ to be saved). But if a lost sinner rejects Jesus as their personal Savior, then the wrath of God the Father rests upon their head (John 3:36). God honors their foolish decision to stay lost, and lets them run the course in wickedness and unbelief, Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them” (Romans 1:32). Judgment Day is coming for all mankind. The $64,000 question is—Will you stand at The Judgment Seat Of Christ as a believer (2nd Corinthians 5:9-11); or will you stand at The Great White Throne Of Judgment as an unbeliever (Revelation 20:11-15).

Nobody Can Honesty Say That God Does Not Exist

I have a classic book in front of me published in the year 1868, titled “GOD IN HISTORY and GOD IN SCIENCE,” authored by London Pastor John Cumming (1807-1881). May I say kindly, there's no such thing as an atheist! Some of the world's wealthiest celebrities have the stench of Hell on them, which is where they are all going, blaspheming the very God Who is kind to them. Luke 6:35b, “...for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.”

Legendary singer Billy Joel is a professed atheist...
“I gradually decided that just because I didn't have or couldn't find the ultimate answer didn't mean I was going to buy the religious fairytale. As an atheist you have to rationalize things.” —Billy Joel
On page 139 of his book, “GOD IN HISTORY and GOD IN SCIENCE,” Pastor John Cumming makes a brilliant observation concerning professed atheists...
Atheism is folly as much as wickedness. But suffer me, before I show this, to say, that it is absolutely impossible that any man can be an atheist, in the strict sense of that word. All that any can say is this: “No spot that I have searched does reveal a God; every organization I have examined does not show traces of wisdom, goodness, and design:” but that individual cannot say; “There is no God;” because he cannot say, “I have soared to the farthest star, I have descended to the deepest mines, I have swept all space, and searched all time, and in the realms of infinite space I have not detected any traces of a God.” In other words, to be able to say, “There is no God,” you must yourself assume to be God, which is a reductio ad absurdum, an utter and a complete absurdity.

SOURCE: “GOD IN HISTORY and GOD IN SCIENCE,” p. 139; by Rev. John Cumming, D.D.; New York: Published by Carlton & Lanahan; 200 Mulberry-Street; 1868
What a brilliant observation. How can any man claim to be an atheist unless he has traveled to the farthest place in the universe? The nearest star to the earth (after our own sun) is Alpha Centauri, which is 4.37 light-years away (28,200,000,000,000 miles away!). This is just one star, being the closest to earth besides our own sun, which is 93,000,000,000 miles away. My friend, the Hubble Space Telescope has discovered that there are at least 200,000,000,000 galaxies in the universe. And each of those galaxies contains BILLIONS of stars! It is anticipated that when the James Webb Telescope is launched in 2018 from NASA, that it will discover over ONE TRILLION GALAXIES!!!

The Word of God teaches that God made the stars. I love how Genesis 1:16 is written... “HE MADE THE STARS ALSO.” It's like the Bible is saying, “Oh, by the way, God also made all the stars!” Genesis 1:16, “And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.” God is amazing, Who knows the exact number of stars that He created, and he calls them each by their own name. Amen! Psalms 147:4, “He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.”

I have just briefly discussed the stars. The world that exists under a microscope is even more amazing, complex and a mystery to mankind. How can anyone reasonably claim to be an atheist when man hasn't even discovered what's in 90% of the earth's oceans? Pastor John Cumming is so right... For anyone to say, “There is no God!,” you must yourself assume to be God! No human being has traveled to the ends of the universe. In fact, no human being has ever even left the Milky Way Solar System. Psalms 145:3, “Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.”

John Cumming was a Scottish minister who was well-known for his anti-Catholic writings and preaching. Amen for that! One of the biggest evidences of apostasy in the United States today is that hardly any professed Christians, evangelicals and clergy criticize the damned Roman Catholic religion. Catholicism teaches sacramental salvation, which is a manmade teaching that goes totally contrary to the inspired Words of God in the Bible. Roman and Russian Orthodox Catholicism are of the Devil. The pope is not the vicar of Heaven, but of Hell. Mary was born by normal conception, did not remain a virgin, and died a sinner's death like all human beings. Only Jesus Christ was born of a virgin and lived a sinless life. Thank God that Pastor John Cumming exposed the Catholic church for what it is, of the Devil.
