I Am An Atheist

An unbelieving man once encountered a Christian & questioned him; "who created God?". The Christian answered truthfully; "No one created God. He is eternal; He has no beginning and has no end.". The unbelieving man counted His words ludicrous and ridiculed him away, but the christian called him back & spoke; " you have asked, 'who created God', and I have answered you truthfully yet you scorn me. God created the human mind so do not expect that you will be able to grasp even the a fraction of a quarter of His being. And if I chose to lie to you instead, saying "yes, God was created", you would go on again and ask, "who created the being who created God?"; and if I were to go on again & answer that to your expectation, you would ask even further, "who created the being whom created the being whom created the being whom created God?"; and then I shall answer that to your expectation, and on and on and on, we would continue, until we shall both die. And when in death, shall your knowledge profit your soul in anyway, saving it from hell? - since your biased heart sought after knowledge rather than life eternal instead - and have I not so much as damned my soul to hell too in that I sought to please your ears, telling you lies?

Indeed there is knowledge abundant, but in knowledge there is right and wrong knowledge, in that only one is profitable for the soul. Seek it with wisdom."

No insult did I send towards your gates & neither did I place words on your lips. With all due respect, ma'am, do well to read well. Cite what I wrote; "What is the just measure of a dishonest individual, ma'am; one who would go whatever lengths so as to come out victor? ....
I shall leave your conscience to that." I, because of your response before that, accused you of dishonesty; however, your response cannot/should not be penned as that of dishonest words because - even the average man would realise this - it is quite evident that there is a side on the 'panel of reasons' other than dishonesty -ignorance - it was most probable that was the case, which is why I wrote immediately after that, "
Or maybe you wrote from having not noticed.", explaining further.

One who insults/makes an attack does not at the end of his/her debasing utterances say "...I leave your conscience to it." Surely there I'd no sense in that.

Cite also this; ". (DO CORRECT ME IF I AM MISTAKEN)".
You see now that I did not place words on your lips, I did not make a closed conclusion. From deducing waa how I arrived to that conclusion but because I knew also that my deductions could also be totally wrong, I acted right by stating that you please say me otherwise if I had spoken wrong.

I would not speak falsely against you; do well, dear ma'am. You take care
