Can an Intellectual Believe in God?
"Charles Darwin thought he could explain life without God. For 35 years, he was sickly--hating God, hating his father, hating everybody. He effectively said, how do you have a creation without a creator?--so he thought. The theory of evolution is the next best guess of the mind and the man that rejects God.
Charles Darwin was not the first to come up with the theory of evolution. Aristotle and others toyed with the idea of evolution. Darwin sought to explain all of life without God.
Frederick Nietzsche got an idea from Darwin. He said that men could be made into "super men".
A mad man got an idea from both Darwin and Nietzsche, his name was Adolf Hitler. He sought to make an Arian race of superior men. In his book Mein Kampf Hitler said, "I have a right to eliminate an inferior race that breeds like vermin." These men rejected God and believed the lie of evolution.
In 6000 years of recorded history in religious wars about 3 million people died and that's regrettable. Hitler and Stalin, who rejected God, alone are responsible for the deaths of 57 million people.
We are talking about all religious wars: Muslims, Hindus and oriental religions. If you talk about religious wars that involve "Christians", it's about 1.8 million. If you are talking about those who are Bible-believing, what we call Evangelical Christians, it is less than 1/4 million. Those who reject God--57 million and the number is growing.
