Read this article on Britain's first "Atheist summer camp." The camp is backed by Richard Dawkins, author of The God Delusion, and is being portrayed as successful by The Times, and other British newspapers and magazines.
This is truly interesting, in-that these children being sent to this camp are learning about astronomy (and its differences from astrology), along with delving into other avenues of science. An atheist, however, denies his/her only basis for making any claim at all, whether about science or anything else. These poor children are being surrounded by a culture and environment at this camp that is striving to provide an enlightened view of life and the natural world; however, any claim or "truth" taught by these camp couselors and instructors is completely meaningless and carries no weight as these individuals have denied the existence of God Himself as the basis for knowing anything in the first place. The presupposition of the existence of the God of the Scriptures is so transcendent and necessary to any knowledge whatsoever, that even an argument against His existence must rely on that presupposition.
As always, we know that man is sinful at his core and will devise all manner of false explanations and excuses for how the world came into being, and for why evil exists, etc. God alone gives light to the eyes, and only the grace of God makes one able to turn from such things.
Praise God for truth.
And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life. ~ 1 John 5:20
