Atheism Abandoning Logic

The period of the "Enlightenment" and atheism promised to show how faith, particularly faith in Jesus the Christ is illogical. They proposed to do this by clear objective scientific proof and good logic in coming to a clear conclusion that there is no God. I like a good debate and a challenge toward truth. If God exists, then he exists and I would be a fool not to accept this if it is true. In the same way, if God does not exist and I turn a blind eye to something that is obviously not true, I would be a fool. A scientist is not being forceful just because he states his findings that water freezes at 32 degrees. He may think one is a fool for saying it is not true simply because I choose not to believe it, and the scientist would be right. However, the enlightenment has had two hundred years to prove their point and they have failed. After such a time and finding that their logic has failed, they have come to a different tactic; emotions. All truth is no longer based on objective truths found in concrete science, but rather in fleeting emotions. "Quick! cover your eyes, maybe nobody will see!" I am not trying to force somebody to believe, I just think it is foolish to deny logic, just because the outcome is not to ones liking. True clear and critical thinking demands that one look at truths we do not like. That is how civilization grows. So what happens when a society rejects this logic and replaces it with of all things, mere emotions?

The Hypocrisy of Atheism and Non-Believers

So may times I have come across somebody of another faith and they challenge me with, "If you Catholics lived what you tell me what you believe, then I will convert". Or I will get, "If God is really love, why is there so much evil in the world?!" In summary "It's all God's fault that there is evil in the world" As a Catholic, I understand where these people are coming from; but at the same token, how is it that one can blame God for the evil in the world when that person is an agent of evil in the world themselves. How can you expect a religion to be perfect when you yourself are not perfect. Just because we believe in Jesus Christ and come short of living what He preached does not mean that we are being hypocrites, it just means that we struggle. Struggling means that we are being more real about our faith as opposed to when we just give up, or blame somebody else for the evil we see. You do not have to be perfect to be a believer or to admit you have faith, you just have to try to "trudge [your] way to happy destiny" (Big Book of AA). Keep it real.
