From the time of Adam's sin in the Garden of Eden to the present, man has attempted to resolve the question of his relationship with God. The Atheist simply denies the existence of God. To him, man is merely another animal, with superior intellect; living for a time, enduring the harsh fate of life, and then dying a complete and final death. To the atheist nothing is eternal; all things are temporal, passing with time. To him, God speaks: "The fool has said in his heart, there is no God. They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity; there is none that does good." Psalms 53:1
