Any literature about a man pushed to the brink of suicide through sin, then reformed through the grace of God? Former atheist here, this newfound belief is amazing yet confusing

notice how they cannot refute anything, simply give ad hominems. Guarantee that none of them have a high education in the sciences and therefore have no idea what they are petulantly refusing.

>out of a desperate attempt to preserve your life
what 'life' retard? do atoms bind by chance (causality) in order to create such structures/representations we call humans, animals, bacteria, etc? If so, raping your little sister would be quintessentially similar to hitting a rock. Just as causality 'acts' onto the rock and the rock further 'responds' in some way, particles in a human being raped follow obvious patterns.

Wise Blood, although in a rather dark - though ultimately redemptive - way.
