Steve.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
Earlier in the show, we had a call from a
woman who was a little upset with you at how
you handled the atheist contents earlier on the show. Yeah,
let's hear Okay, Steve.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
I am calling from Dallas. It is May sticks and
I'm just wanting to make a comment on something you
just made. You call people fools that they didn't believe
in God, you call them ignorant. I believe, well, I
do believe in God. You made a comment that and
I'm sure that those that don't believe in God are
those that are atheists, probably think I'm a fool and
(00:34):
think I'm ignorant. But I really think that's an ignorant
comment that you made to assume that people feel the
same way that you do. There are plenty of people
who believe in God that are Christians or of other
different religions, and they don't think negative or think that
people who don't believe how they believe are fools and
(00:57):
are ignorant. Vice versa. There are people who are not Christians,
who are atheists, who don't believe in God and do
not believe that people who believe in God are ignorant
and our bulls I really think that's an ignerant comment
that you made just to assume that people feel the
same way that you do. They're disappointing, but I still
(01:20):
continue to listen to your show. Have a great day.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yeah, let me let me talk to this lady for
a minute. First of all, thank you for your call
and your opinion. I oftentimes say to people you need
to listen carefully, and radio is a forum where oftentimes
you kind of miss what's being said. Now, let's just
say I said exactly that. But here's what I've always
(01:44):
said from the Peers Morgan Show up until now. I said,
I think if you're an atheist me personally, I think
you're a fool for not believing in God. I am
assuming if you are an atheist and you look at
me for believing in this higher power that you can't
see and you believe doesn't exist, you must think I'm
(02:05):
a fool too. So I think that two fools don't
need to be standing around talking. That's what I've said,
probably more than twenty times on this show. Now, do
I think you're ignorant if you don't believe in God?
Me personally? I do. I just do, And I'm okay
(02:32):
with that, But let me give you a scripture. Though
there's a scripture that says a fool has said in
his heart there is no God. That's in the scripture.
So you know, I understand what you're I don't understand
(02:52):
what you're saying, ma'am, and that there are a lot
of people who don't believe in God who do this
and do that. I don't care. I don't care. I
happen to be a man of faith, and I stand
on that.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Now.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
If you're not, if you don't believe in God, to me,
something's wrong with you. To me, you haven't given this
an adequate amount of thought. To me, you're not understanding
some basic things about life. I had that scientist on
my show. I can't think of his name. You all
gave it to me the other day, Neil deGrasse Tyson.
(03:32):
I had him on my Facebook show Facebook Watch, and
I've had his family on Celebrity Family Feud. Nice God,
nice family. But he doesn't believe in God. And I
didn't know that until we were sitting on my talk show,
and when he said it, I just went wow, and
(03:56):
it changed. I just it's hard for me to talk
to people like that, because I don't see how you
cannot acknowledge it that there is a God, he said.
There is no proof that there is a god, he said,
because if God was in the beginning, how could he
(04:19):
create the beginning? Well, first of all, if God is infinite,
stop asking me how did invent it? Because it was him.
Where did the molecule come from that spun into this
ball of dust that cool and formed the earth? Where
did that come from? When it came from the universe? Okay,
where a universe come from? It came from infinity? Okay,
(04:40):
where did infinity come from? So if you're a scientist
and you're trying to explain this to me, I'm asking
you to just answer those questions for me. I believe
in God because I have had proof. I've just had
proof time and time again. I know that prayer works.
I know that prayer change just things. I've seen miracles
(05:02):
performed in people's lives because of faith. You can call
it the law of attraction if you want to, But
that's in the Bible too, because the Bible says a
man is as he thinketh. That clears it up. If
you look at all self help books, all of them
are based on the Bible. Even the best self help
book I ever read was The Secret. If you read
The Secret or watch the movie The Secret, it's all
(05:22):
based on scripture.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Ain't.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
No man came up with no new concept that God
didn't put in place from the very beginning, from the
Old Testament to the New Testament. He's very present. He
all over there. Every prediction, everything he said back in
the day applies to today. None. That are some old
laws in the Old Testament don't that we've given up
(05:46):
on because of the New Testament. But there is a God.
And I don't know why the lady felt that way
about the comment, but I stand on that. I think
a fool has said in his heart there is no God.
I just do lead that because I know God works,
and if I were you, I would try it. I
(06:07):
feel sorry for a person that doesn't believe in God.
There has got to be such a void in your life.
Oh my God, I feel for you, man, and that's
a void that only God can feel. You'll, Heavenly Father,
your creator. That's just how I feel. So sorry if
that offended you, lady, But I'm just gonna you said
(06:27):
you keep listening, so maybe you heard this too. I
stay in here, have a great day. Talk to God.
He would love to hear from you. And believe me,
he is there all day. Have a good day to day.
