Atheist British Professor Antony Flew now believe the existence of God, why other atheists still hold out?

Question

Professor Antony Flew, a prominent British philosopher, athiest author of Darwinian Evolution, has now cited advancements in science as proof of the existence of God. He said Naturalism failed to answer the Origin of species.

If a person insists not following the evidences. He is willfully blind, deserving the horrible pit of burning fire.

Natural science has compelling evidences for the existence of God. MIT physicist Vera Kistiankowsky said: This exquisite order displayed by our scientific understanding of the physical world calls for the divine.

Answer 1

Antony Flew said:

"I remain still what I have been now for over fifty years, a negative atheist. By this I mean that I construe the initial letter in the word 'atheist' in the way in which everyone construes the same initial letter in such words as 'atypical' and 'amoral'. For I still believe that it is impossible either to verify or to falsify - to show to be false - what David Hume in his Dialogues concerning Natural Religion happily described as "the religious hypothesis." The more I contemplate the eschatological teachings of Christianity and Islam the more I wish I could demonstrate their falsity.

I can suggest only one possible source of the rumours. Several weeks ago I submitted to the Editor of Philo (The Journal of the Society of Humanist Philosophers) a short paper making two points which might well disturb atheists of the more positive kind. The point more relevant here was that it can be entirely rational for believers and negative atheists to respond in quite different ways to the same scientific developments. ...I recognize that developments in physics coming on the last twenty or thirty years can reasonably be seen as in some degree confirmatory of a previously faith-based belief in god, even though they still provide no sufficient reason for unbelievers to change their minds. They certainly have not persuaded me. "

The e book you aspect out replaced into "co" written through Roy Varghese who fairly of route has an time table, why would not Flew have used a ghost author with out an time table? that is like writing a e book on the prospect of Xenu (Xemu) contemporary and having Tom Cruise as your ghost author
