Personally, I don't believe in Richard Dawkins. If there is a Richard Dawkins out there, why hasn't he shown himself to me?
Richard Dawkins, like all atheists, never come with any arguments for the nonexistence of God. What they always do come with is a list of reasons for why they hate the God they don't believe in. It is worth asking ourselves the question as to whether it is a worthwhile exercise investing time in dazzling the unbeliever with wizz bang apologetics concerning God's existence when the issue is not one of knowledge but of sin.
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. (Romans 1:18-20)
These verses from Romans 1 tell us "that which may be known of God is manifest" in the unbeliever "for God hath shown it unto them". They are holding "the truth in unrighteousness". And what is it that testifies God's existence to sinful men? Verse 20 tells us the answer. The "invisible" things of God are "clearly seen" in God's creation "even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse". Put simply, the creation compellingly testifies to the Creator God Himself. The atheist's problem is not a lack of proof concerning God's existence, but rather that he hates God and loves of sin . . . just like I did before being saved by the gracious God that Dawkins denies!

I just found out about your blog through a mutual acquaintance. I'm drafting a post on my blog about my experiences of dialoging with militant internet atheists.
This video is the most awesome thing I've seen lately. Thanks for posting it.
"Why I Don't Believe In Richard Dawkins!"
You simply don't have to.
"Richard Dawkins, like all atheists, never come with any arguments for the nonexistence of God."
The assertion that a proposition is necessarily true because it has not been proven false is called "Argument from ignorence" and is logical fallacy.
To write that ateists hate God and love sin is ... funny and... not very nice for a real Chistian
;)
Anonymous, stating a fact does not qualify as a logical fallacy. And to write that atheists hate God and love sin is a plain biblical fact - read Romans 1 - it has nothing to do with being nice or not. In fact it is also an accurate description of myself before God graciously saved me.
