The Christian atheist

The earliest followers of Jesus were called 'atheists' because they did not follow the prevailing gods of their day and dared to stand again men who thought they were divine. They were picked on because of this. Some were mocked. Others had their livelihood threatened. Others lost life, liberty or happiness.

How things have not changed.

This blog is dedicated to issues of belief and tolerance in a day when followers of Jesus are again in the sights.
