Summary
COMING SOON: Book into the UK Reasonable Faith Tour with William Lane Craig http://www.premier.org.uk.craig
Geoff Crocker is a former Christian, now atheist. However, he says he still believes in Spirituality even as an atheist and that believing the universe is Godless does not mean there is no meaning to be grasped. His book "An Enlightened Philosophy" asks if atheism may be able to borrow from Religion "reintrepreted as myth".
Peter S Williams is a Christian Philosopher and apologist. He says that Atheism does not allow for objective meaning, value or purpose, only theism can provide those.
