Like most of you guys, I often discuss Christianity with non-believers. In order to do that, I read authors like Richard Dawkins (or more intelligent atheists) to understand where they are coming from. What I encounter most often is sheer ignorance. Jesus rightly calls Satan a father of liars. Today I watched a video on comparisons between Jesus and an Egyptian god called Horus which was complete lies and without any sources, and yet people on a debate website I frequent took it at face value.
Dawkins, of course, tells the most atrocious lies in the book 'The God Delusion'. I read his chapter on the infallibility and I was literally refuting every line, and his claim (without any evidence or sources whatsoever) that Nazi Germany was a Christian regime was outright rubbish. I then watched a video this evening called 'The Nightmare Years' which completely debunked his nonsense (it was about a Western journalist who witnessed the arrests of Christian pastors in Nazi Germany.)
The thing is, people aren't interested in the truth. Dawkins and the like say what they want to hear, and they don't question what he says. The myth that Hitler was a Christian is becoming more and more common when it is a *lie.* This hurts me so much, because the truth is staring them in the face, but they live in ignorance.
What can we do in the face of this wall of enemy propaganda?
Remember that the bible does say that some will be blind and not able to see, and to understand. It sounds like you are giving it your best and should not feel discouraged. I agree it is frustrating and at times painful because some things seem to us so clear to see.
