Alcoholics Anonymous and Atheists

In a recent comment on Hope and Transformation, Bill wrote:

Speaking of 12 Step Programs

Alcoholics Anonymous routinely reads their Step 2 which states:

…….Let’s look first at the case of the one who says he won’t believe - the belligerent one. He is in a state of mind which can be described only as savage…….

This theology is much more then just stating the need of a Higher Power. AA is saying that Atheists are basically bad people.

God Doesn’t Believe in Atheists

Monday, August 7th, 2006

I just looked this book up to see who wrote it - maybe I should have guessed it’s by Ray Comfort.

Here’s an excerpt from it:

Why the atheist doesn’t exist

Here’s a description of the book I found on an online Christian bookstore:

What book can you give to an atheist or agnostic that they will actually read and ‘enjoy’, but which damages their unbelief at the same? God Doesn’t Believe in Atheists by Ray Comfort is a humourous and very readable challenge to the average village atheist which contains a strong gospel presentation.

(What’s an ‘average village atheist’?)

I’d be interested to know whether your ‘unbelief is damaged’ after reading the excerpt. (Try not to damage anything else if you do read it ;))
