Atheist Church

   I want to start by saying that I don't believe in atheists. I believe people who call themselves atheists just don't understand God or are angry with him, usually it is a mixture of both. This rebellious world is full of evil that masquerades as sincerity and rational thought, and misguides many souls. With that being said, an atheist should be welcome into the house of God the same as any
other person. So what's the problem? The problem is they are often not welcome. Christians are often intimidated by so called atheists and are not equipped to answer their questions. This is especially true with the new breed of atheists who are
intelligent, articulate and very aggressive. This is devastating to a believer who is not secure in their faith. Instead, believers just avoid atheists or judge them harshly which in turn gives the atheist more justification for denying your God. As a Christian,
I can say we have been terrible at reaching out to those who struggle with belief. After all .....how we treat someone ultimately reflects on Jesus.

     We now turn our sights to Hollywood California where a new "church" has sprung up. This is not like other churches though,  this is an Atheist Church. The first question that came to my mind was, if atheists don't believe in God why do they want a church? As I gave this issue more thought...I realized they are trying to make a point. Make no mistake about it, this is a message aimed directly at Christians! The message goes like this- We now have a place where we meet once a week also. We will welcome everyone while being more friendly and less judgmental than you and we don't need God here to do it. The next question is-What do they do there if not worship God? The answer is- Worship everything else. They have motivational speakers, stand up comedy, music and even fellowship. This is great and I have absolutely no problem with it, but don't call it a church. This is where my gripe comes in. The founders of this "church" wanted to call it a church because it causes controversy. They know exactly what they are doing, calling it a worship/fun center wouldn't give them the attention they crave. From the outside I see people trying to fill a void that can only be filled by God- BDB
