especially when there are times of struggle and pain and suffering.
Like the whole Epstein thing right now, we are seeing examples of true evil.
So there are moments where I think, how could there be a good God?
However, from my investigation, I'm convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that there's actual evidence for the existence of God, the historical reliability of the Bible, and the philosophical explanations for meaning and purpose.
And what is that?
I think we're in a unique bubble where we found ourselves in a timeframe where we're connected more than ever.
We've kind of come out of a period of time where the new atheism is very, very popular.
You had Dawkins, Daniel, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, and they made a big impact in the early 2000s.
Yeah, you had these individuals who were writing these very influential works.
But I sometimes wonder whether the new atheism movement worked a lot more effectively in print than it did in actual real life.
Like in terms of the practicality of the application of the things that were being talked about, especially in regards to meaning.
If you apply ideas like you being a product of time plus matter plus chance, what does that actually give you in terms of the ultimate identity questions?
And so I think that's true in a lot of circumstances where you have these seeds that are planted and they grow.
And they produce trees that produce fruit that are kind of hard to digest in their actual application.
And along with that, we have a world that's very complex.
We're more connected than we ever have been.
I don't know if we're truly connected.
We were ever truly meant to know as much information as we do, especially about things that are going on around the world and things that are hard to comprehend.
And so what I think that all kind of adds up to is people asking questions about, okay, I'm here.
I'm here.
