So the most compelling argument for God is that Christians are (unexplainably) calm people.
Ah yes, they are so calm when they tell you that you'll burn in hell, that gay people are satanic, or when they burn books.
But I'm not even being sarcastic. I remember when I watched the documentary about the Westboro Baptist Church by Louis Theroux, how they all had that creepy grin on their faces as they yelled hateful things at people. They were ecstatic. Definitely check that documentary (first of three).
Quote:Bartlett reveals ‘most compelling argument for God’ after Diary of a CEO interview with Lennox
Entrepreneur and Diary of a CEO host Steven Bartlett has revealed what he saw as “one of the most compelling arguments for God” after his conversation with Christian apologist Professor John Lennox.
TV ‘Dragon’ Bartlett told Lennox that his witness was as convincing as the arguments he had made.
“You have a certain peace and contentment that I rarely see in people that I interview, but I almost always see in the Christians that I’ve interviewed. This is an interesting phenomenon for me.”
Bartlett referenced his interview with Canadian apologist Wesley Huff, who he described as “happy, content [and] rounded”.
“It seems to be a trend that a lot of the Christian apologists that I've interviewed have that anchoring that so many of us are looking for”, he added.
“There’s a real sense of that,” Lennox responded, “I sit in front of many people, and of course they often ask me questions I don't even understand. But in life, that peace is very important to me.”
“When I look at you, I see someone who's of infinite value made in the image of God, and so what I say to you or think about you is hugely important to me. And I wish you well”, the apologist concluded.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
