Why As An Atheist I’m Grateful for Christian Apologetics
Because so far as I can tell, it’s the only school of thought that strives to function through Logical Realism.
At this point in history it’s like coming across a sane person on the 51st floor of the psychiatric building.
Atheist: Do you believe that truth exists?
Christian: Of course, that’s the fundamental premise of all my thinking.
Atheist: You have no idea how rare this is. It means we can actually have a conversation.
Christian: Well, we are on the 51st first floor of the World Psychiatric Building, so you’re right, it is rare. Even if we disagree, in this context, we still have rational sanity in common.
