God, I hate atheists. I don’t think there can be a group of people on earth more convinced of their own rightness, more dismissive of other people’s interests and beliefs, or more dogmatic and humourless about their own massively unappealing and totally irrelevant weltanschauung than the “I don’t believe in God” squad.
But it’s not the nihilism, the soullessness, the lack of poetry, the moral and physical ugliness, the shallow iconoclasm or the vainglory of atheists that bother me most. It’s the boringness.
Is there anything in the world more boring than an atheist?

The Times is asking $26 before I can read the rest of the story - so I decided to give it a miss.

For a while I was wondering where a Christian might get the weird idea that unbelievers are soulless nihilists who are both morally and physically ugly - and then I remembered Psalm 14:1,
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.That's the inspired word of the Lord God Almighty so it must be true.
