The Challenge

     How important it is to remember your options!

     Secularist: Prove that God exists.
     Catholic: I have no need to do that.
     Secularist: Hah! Then you admit that God doesn’t exist!
     Catholic: Nothing of the sort. Are you claiming that you can prove He doesn’t exist?
     Case 1:

     Secularist: Uh...
     Catholic: Because if you can, I’m ready to listen.

     Case2:

     Secularist: Why bother? There’s no evidence that He exists.
     Catholic: Aha! So you can’t prove it!
    Secularist: I don’t have to!
     Catholic: Yes you do, if you want me to accept it. Otherwise, your position is an article of faith...just like mine.

     The most important of all human characteristics is freedom of conscience. Never forget it – and never forget that your position doesn’t require proof, so long as you accept it as an article of faith.
