The Irrational Atheist by Vox Day7/1/2023 Prominent atheists like Sam Harris contribute to the chorus of voices, arguing religion is “the most prolific source of violence in our history” ( The End of Faith, page 27). Without fail, a couple of our atheist guests will contend, “Religion is the cause of most wars.” This cultural mantra has been uttered so often and with so much force, it has come to be accepted as an undeniable declaration. Of course, my atheist friends are more than happy to oblige, so they meet with our missions teams, challenge them with a short lecture, and then dive into some rigorous dialogue. Now it was time for them to “get off the sidelines and into the game” and engage non-Christians with the truth. For the last six months, we’ve taught apologetics to these high schoolers from Upland Christian Academy. On Sunday, I returned home from another Berkeley Mission trip, where I intentionally exposed high school students to some of my atheist friends in the Bay Area.
