07-05 Atheist Debate NY

First of all sir, for you to have turned your back to what the world offered you and follow our Lord is something I admire greatly. I once was starting a modeling career and it was flourishing quickly and wonderfully. Soon I was given a great opportunity to take that "great step forward" all young 20 somethings hope for. But, as I was contemplating the offer, the Holy Spirit told my plainly, "You can do this, and you will be very successful, but I will lose you." That was enough for me to reject the world, and take up my cross.

I soon married a wonderful woman, and became a 24 year old step-father of a 12 year old child. Difficult times did follow, but I would never go back and change my decision. I'm still married, my child is now 23, and I am stronger in the faith of our Lord than ever. So much more I could say, but I do not want to bore you with the mundane details of my life.

The interest I had to contact you was this. Science versus Creation as to the debate on ABC. Well, as I see it the two go hand in hand. i.e. The human body is not "hollow", it is not a mere sheath for the soul, but it has it's own workings and structure, an amazing array of vastly fascinating inner workings that the Lord created to "mobilize mankind". The universe too has it's workings, well, it's all around isn't it? Anything you point to has it's own way, reliant on the ways of the next thing it's irrevocably linked to.

Science, it's very language is mathematics. Can the language of science "speak" me into existence? In other words, what mathematical formula defines the universe? Is there one? I think not. What formula encapsulates human existence? What number suggest random events leading up to life of any kind? There is none, it's absolutely impossible. If the very language of science cannot define it's own findings, how can science then prove that God does not exist, and that I do?

It simply is not possible to come up with a mathematical formula that calculates all the random events it would take to come up with me writing you this letter right now, or the incredible odds against you ever receiving it, that would be Gods will. Therefore, I submit that if the language of science cannot define it's "random" argument, then science (absent God) becomes a rather "quite" argument.


Very sincerely,
Tim Altevers

I'm so glad to have been able to view the photo's before I see the actual show, because you have been able to capture the heart of the participants in action. This particular photo places the period on all the thoughts that have captured me while viewing this gallery. In that, Martin Bashir standing in the middle endeavoring to maintain balance and order, but walks away knowing more about the particpants than he might have wanted too.... coming into this event. He now knows how desperate are the godless to make their shallow points, through sarcastic speech, raised voices, and arrogance glazed with hatred. And he once again has witnessed the "believer's in Christ" demonstrating the exact opposite, in their humility, gentleness, compassion with zeal for the lost.

The woman....she is the woman at the well, needing the drink of living water from the Master....but she refuses to go to the well because she knows full well that if she does there will come accountability for her lifestyle....and the anger which she remains imprisoned by. May God see fit to one day soothe those scar's which were inflicted by other's, and then she herself... and show her the way of escape through faith in Christ alone.
