Pray for my friend Richard, who preaches on the London busses and trains most days during the week for a couple of hours.I don't think that Richard Dawkins will accept the challenge and preach his atheism on the busses
Richard needs prayer, he is a mighty man of god!

Ps 14:1 - Show Context
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, They have done abominable works, There is none who does good.
Psalm 2
1 Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing? 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying, 3 "Let us break Their bonds in pieces And cast away Their cords from us." 4 He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; The Lord shall hold them in derision. 5 Then He shall speak to them in His wrath, And distress them in His deep displeasure: 6 "Yet I have set My King On My holy hill of Zion."
7 "I will declare the decree: The Lord has said to Me, 'You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. 8 Ask of Me, and I will give You The nations for Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth for Your possession. 9 You shall break F1 them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them to pieces like a potter's vessel.' "
10 Now therefore, be wise, O kings; Be instructed, you judges of the earth. 11 Serve the Lord with fear, And rejoice with trembling. 12 Kiss the Son, F2 lest He F3 be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him
We sometimes forget how mighty our god is, he created the universe which even the best human satillite new horizons, we cannot even get out of our solar system.
Does not the Lord laugh at Richard Dalkins foolish effort! To me it would be more an opportunity to evangelise as it reminds people that there is a god,
C S Lewis said I think it is like writing darkness it does not blot out the suns light.
Psalms 19:1-6
1 To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork. 2 Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge. 3 There is no speech nor language Where their voice is not heard. 4 Their line F15 has gone out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun, 5 Which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, And rejoices like a strong man to run its race. 6 Its rising is from one end of heaven, And its circuit to the other end; And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
The heavens declare the glory of god! Have we forgotten the glories of creation what are some old buses to the glory of his handiwork.
As Richard Dalkins is that fool in Psalm 14,
I want to glorify god, as his name will be forgotton in eternity
