Well, it's Wednesday today on Things Unseen and I want to welcome you if this is your

first visit to our weekday podcast.

This week we've been thinking about the question, what is man?

Who are we really?

And yesterday we were reflecting a little on the sheer wonder of being created as male

and female, man and woman.

Two kinds of the same being, made to belong together, to glorify God together and to

enjoy Him together.

That last bit I think is what non-believers can never get.

When we come to know God, we enjoy Him and no wonder because we come to realize how

loving and kind and generous He has been to us.

You know, I've often thought that agnostics and atheists can't really live consistently

on the basis of their own agnostic or atheistic presuppositions.

They've got to beg, borrow or steal from a biblical world and life view.

Of course without admitting it, and often without realizing it.

Their presupposition is that we are just a mass of stuff, and all we are and do is

determined by the stuff that's built into us from our conception.

We can't really live consistently with that world and life view, certainly with that

view of yourself.

I'm reminded of a lecture given by one of my professor of psychology at university.

She was a well-known British humanist, and she had written on the subject of humanism

and its virtues.
