From today’s Babylon Bee:
”Local atheist . . . Steve Wimbly admitted to several close friends that recent struggles had shaken his faith in the existence of nothing.
“Wimbly said that all his life, he had prided himself on his ability to face life's challenges with an unshakable faith in absolutely nothing, but several recent events had admittedly led him to thinking about the possibility of a divine and loving creator.
" ‘ I'm afraid I'm on the edge of losing my faith in the existence of cold, blind determinism and nihilism.’
. . . .
“At publishing time, Steve's faith was further shaken after none of his atheist comrades were able to answer his question about why anything good happens if there isn't a God.”
The punchline is delicious, as it inverts the atheist’s tired question, “How could a loving God permit suffering.”
Indeed, in totally random, purposeless universe, the chances of destructive actions exceed the chances of constructive actions.
Blessings.
