An atheist by his very nature is incapable of true love because he has never loved God.

This is something that is so obvious that one wonders why atheists have never realized this themselves.

Atheism, because it denies the existence of God, also denies the existence of love.

Because an atheist is incapable of love, he is, by his very nature, stunted in his growth and deprived of living life the way it was meant to be lived.

Think about any atheist you may know. How happy are they? How successful have they been in marriage? What are their children like? How far have they succeeded in the world?

All great men, in whatever field they have succeeded, have been humbled by the realization that a "higher power" does indeed exist and that it has the ability to crush anyone and anything at any time, if it so wishes.

A "higher power" means just that - power - and true power rests with God alone, regardless of how successful any man may be in his achievements in this life.

Ultimately he is reduced to ash and his achievements rendered to memory, and, if he is lucky, to records, written, visual and audio.

The reason why atheism as a movement has never succeeded and has always failed is because those who espouse atheism are themselves failures.

What great atheist has ever achieved anything?
