I recently heard a story.
Boudreaux was spending the afternoon in the bar, and he overheard these two overeducated yuppies yammering back and forth about the nature of the universe.
The first one said, "What we think of as 'matter' is made up almost entirely of empty space. The space between atoms in a molecule is vast compared to the size of an atom, and the space between the particles in an atom are incredibly vast compared to the sizes of the particles. That barstool over there shouldn't even be considered a solid!"
The other one replied, "Hold on, how do you know that barstool is even there? We don't actually see the barstool, we simply process electric signals in our heads generated by our optic nerves. And all those nerves are doing is reporting that certain wavelengths of light have bounced off an object. But what if the nerves are misfiring, which happens quite often? So, we can't state with certainty that the barstool even exists!"
Boudreaux had heard enough by this point, and he said to them, "I couldn’t help but overhear you two eggheads. I have an experiment for you which should settle this matter."
They agreed, and Boudreaux picked up the barstool and knocked each of them over the head with it.
Friends, when I heard that story, I thought about the nature of God. Atheists like to put on airs by showing how "enlightened" they are. Those yuppies in the bar denying the existence of the barstool are just like atheists denying the existence of God.
Well, just like it is too late to start believing in the barstool after you are lying on the barroom floor with a cracked skull, it is too late to start believing in God after you are dead and burning in Hell.
The time to start believing is NOW!
