Is Atheism Dead? Eric Metaxas Says the Belief in No God Has NO Intellectual Integrity

As the Christian Advent season begins, there's always talk about faith and what people actually believe. The Jewish Festival of Lights, Hanukkah, is also a part of the season. But for Christians, Christmas is the high and Holy time of welcoming the birth of Jesus, Savior of the world. And it's also the time atheists offer more vitriol against belief in God. So, here's a preemptive strike that will help people of faith enjoy the Christmas season. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, best-selling author and radio host, Eric Metaxas, turns the tables on atheism and explains his book, "Is Atheism Dead?" The short answer is that while there are still people who profess no belief in an Omniscient Being, Metaxas blasts that position as intellectually untenable, and that those who still hold to it haven't done their homework. Metaxas takes on the four-horsemen of atheism: Dawkins, Dennet, Hitchens and Harris. He says while they appear scholarly, they've ignored the advances in science that give much more proof of there being a God than no God. Science, it turns out, has far more in common with faith in God. Chapters: 00:00:00-Is Atheism Dead?
