Windows on the World (September 22nd at 10 a.m.): “Atheists Who Love God”. Many Christians believe that atheists are in rebellion against God. But is that really true? In this talk, Randal Rauser builds a bridge to the atheist and skeptic communities by pointing out the degree to which theism and atheism are not as far apart as we may think. In fact, it just may be possible to be an atheist who loves God
