The Absurdity of Life without God

1. الكتاب يقول: خلق الله الإنسان!! The Bible says: God created Man!! الإلحاد يقول: خلق الإنسان الله!! Atheism says: Man created God!! فكيف تستطيع أن تدافع عن الله....؟؟ How can you defend Our Lord … God…??

2. Modern man thought that when he got rid of God he freed himself from everything that stifled and oppressed him; • تصور الفلاسفه انه عندما تخلصوا من «الإله» انهم تحرروا ... • instead, he found that in killing God, he had only orphaned himself. • ولكنه علي العكس اكتشف انه بقتله هذا الإله قد يتموا نفسهم بنفسهم ...

3. فبدون الله تصبح الحياه درب من العبثWithout God life becomes ABSURD

4. The Absurdity of Life without God William Lane Craig

5. Modern man cannot live happily with his atheism… ثبت ان الإنسان المعاصر لا يمكن ان يكون سعيدا مع كونه ملحداالإلحاد = التعاسه البالغه

6. بدون الله وبدون حياه ابديه = تعاسه ويأس لأن حياه تصبح بلا معني بلا قيمه وبلا هدف

7. Without God and the belief in Immortality, life is withoutultimate significance, value, or purpose.

8. اولا : بدون الله والأبديه لا يوجد للحياه اي معني Without God and Immortality LIFE HAS NO SIGNIFICANCE

9. If each individual person passes out of existence when he dies, then what ultimate meaning can be given to his life? • Does it really matter whether he ever existed or not? • ما هو المغزي من وجود الانسان اذا كان مصيره هو العدم... • بل وما الفرق بينه وبين اي كائن آخر ... • وما الفارق فيما اذا كان عاش او لم يوجد من الأصل

10. But it's important to see that it is not just immortality that man needs if life is to be meaningful. • ولكنه من المهم ان نري ان الإنسان ليس في حاجه فقط الي اليقين من الأبديه لكي يكون لحياته معني • Mere duration of existence does not suffice to make that existence meaningful. • فالوجود في حد ذاته حتي ان كان الي الأبد ليس كافيا ان يجعل للوجود معني

11. فالوجود بدون الله لا يجعل للحياه اي معنيMan and the universe could exist forever, but if there were no God, that existence would still have no ultimate significance

12. من هم اللي لماذا الحدوا؟؟؟؟

13. Nietzsche نيتشة )1844-1900) توقع نيتشه انه سيأتي يوم يكتشف فيه الإنسان تداعياتالإلحاد انه سيؤدي به الي العدم والي تحطيم كل ما هو ذو معني اوذو قيمه Nietzsche predicted that some day, people would realize the implications of atheism, and this realization would usher in an age of nihilism that is the destruction of all meaning and value in life.

14. ثانيا: بدون اليقين في وجود الله وفي الأبديه لن يكون للحياه اي قيمه Second: without God and Immortality Life has NO VALUE

15. سارتر Sartre (1905-1980) "Several hours or several years make no difference, once you have lost eternity." لا يهم اذا عشت بضعه ساعات او سنين طالما فقدت قيمه الأبديه

16. سارتر Sartre (1905-1980) الوجودية EXISTENTIALISM EXISTENTIALISME وتصبح الحياه كما وصفها سارتر ... جرداء ... بلا ادني قيمه bare, valueless

17. اذا كانت الحياه سوف تنتهي في القبر اذا فانه لا فرق اذا بين من عاش قديسا او ابليسافمصير الإنسان لا علاقه له بسلوكياته واعماله If life ends at the grave, then ultimately it makes no difference whether one has lived as a Stalin or as a saint since one's destiny is ultimately unrelated to one's behavior.

18. فاذا كان الله غير موجود = ليس هناك اي معيار موضوعي لما هو صواب او ما هو خطأ For regardless of immortality, if there is no God, then there can be no objective standard of right and wrong.

19. هتلر Hitler الأم تيريزا Mother Teresa In a world without God, who is to say whose values are right, and whose are wrong? في عالم بدون الله من ذا الذي يمكنه ان يقرر اي قيم صحيحه او غير صحيحه

20. هتلر Hitler الأم تيريزا Mother Teresa حب العظمة و التأله التضحيه والتفاني من اجل الغير ام

21. هتلر Hitler الأم تيريزا Mother Teresa "To say that something is wrong because it is forbidden by God is perfectly understandable to anyone who believes in a law-giving God. But to say that something is wrong, even though no God exists to forbid it, is not understandable

22. هتلر Hitler الأم تيريزا Mother Teresa But that means that it is impossible to condemn war, oppression, or crime as evil. Nor can one praise love, brotherhood, or equality as good. لا يمكن ادانه الحرب او القهر او الجريمه ولا يمكن الثناء علي المحبه والأخوه والمساواه

23. برترنتد راسل Bertrand Russel Russell admitted that he could not live as though ethical values were simply a matter of personal taste and that he therefore found his own views "incredible."

24. برترنتد راسل Bertrand Russel "I do not know the solution," he confessed. لا ادري ما حل هذه المعضله

25. Dostoevsky He said: If God does not exist then ALL THINGS ARE PERMITTED BUT he showed that Man cannot live like this اذا كان الله غير موجود فكل شئ مباح

26. Dostoevsky He cannot live as though it's perfectly all right for soldiers to slaughter innocent childre لا يمكن ان يحيا الإنسان ويقول انه من «المتاح والمباح» قتل الأطفال الأبرياء

27. Dostoevsky Everything in him cries out to say that these acts are wrong, really wrong. But if God does not exist, then he cannot.

28. ثالثا واخيرا: لا يمكن ان يكون هناك اي هدف للحياه بدون الله وبدون اليقين بانه هناك حياه ابديه Thirdly, there is no ultimate purpose without immortality and God.

29. اذا لم يكن الله موجود فان حياتك ليست احسن من حياه اي كائن او اي حيوان If there is no God, then your life is not qualitatively different from that of a dog. That may sound harsh, but it's true.

30. حاول الفلاسفه دعاه الإلحاد ان يضفوا قيمه عي الحياه بدون الله فوقعوا في عدم الإتساق NO CONSISTENCY

31. فرانسيس شايفر Francis Schaeffer explained this point well, saying that Modern Man lives in a two story Universe يحيا الإنسان المعاصر في كون ينقسم الي طابقين

32. In the upper story are meaning, value, and purpose. Now modern man lives in the lower story because he believes that there is no God

33. Life is meaningful … has significance, value and purpose Life is meaningless … absurd, no value and no purpose

34. he therefore makes leaps of faith into the upper story to affirm that life has meaning, value, and purpose يلجأ الي محاولات ايجاد اي شيء يؤمن به لكي يضفي علي حياته معني وقيمه وهدف But because he cannot live consistently and happily in such a world … ولكن الإنسان لا يستطيع ان يجد اي سعاده في تلك الحياه even though he has absolutely no right to since man and the lower story does not believe in God علي الرغم من انه لا يحق له ذلك بما انه لا يؤمن بوجود الله

35. سارتر Sartre He chose Marxism argued that one may create meaning for his life by freely choosing to follow a certain course of action It is inconsistent to say that life is objectively meaningless and then to say that one can create meaning for his life.

36. Dostoevsky He cannot live as though it's perfectly all right for soldiers to slaughter innocent children. تناقض مع اراؤه = لا يمكن ان يحيا الإنسان ويقول انه من «المتاح والمباح» قتل الأطفال الأبرياء

37. And so, he makes a leap of faith to affirm values anyway. And when he does, he reveals the inadequacy of a world without God. All is permitted … there is no God

38. Cruelty of Atheism وحشيه الإلحاد • A torturer: • 'I thank God in whom I don't believe that I have lived to this hour when I can express all of the evil in my heart.'

39. But if atheism fails in this regard, what about biblical Christianity? • According to the Christian worldview, God does exist, and man's life does not end at the grave.

40. In the resurrection body man may enjoy eternal life and fellowship with God. • Biblical Christianity therefore provides the two conditions necessary for a meaningful, valuable, and purposeful life: • namely, God and immortality.
