Creationist Ken Ham Slams New Atheist TV Channel, Says the 'Bible Can Be Trusted' (VIDEO)
Creation Museum founder Ken Ham recently broke his silence regarding his thoughts on the brand new Atheist TV channel.
"Laws of logic shouldn't exist in a completely random materialistic universe that the atheists believe in-and yet they do!" said Ham, according to a Charisma News report.
"It is incredible that atheists spend so much time, effort and money arguing against someone that they don't even believe exists! Where are all their books, websites and magazines that argue against the mythical Easter Bunny? This is because they do know God exists, but they are suppressing the truth in unrighteousness (Rom. 1:18)."
The 62-year-old Australian Christian apologetic evangelist further expressed his views on the channel that bashes Christianity and the existence of God.
"If you die, that's all there is, so why do atheists push so hard to preach their message of hopelessness? Why does it matter to them what anyone believes? It's because they have the knowledge of God stamped on their hearts but are living in rebellion against their Creator," said Ham.
"Sadly, this new TV channel is not just targeting adults with a hopeless message of godlessness, but they are also trying to indoctrinate children into an atheistic worldview."
American Atheists President David Silverman previously made the announcement of the first Atheist TV channel which debuted on Roku and the Internet a few months ago.
"Why are we going to television?" said Silverman to the audience of approximately 100 people who attended the press conference at Stanford University's chemistry lecture hall on May 6, according to Religion News, "It's part of our strategy of going where we are not."
Last year, Silverman bashed TV stations that displays religious occurrences as actual events.
"How can we trust what the History Channel says if it tells us that Jesus walked on water? The Discovery Channel treats ghosts like they are real. How can we believe that 'Mythbusters' is telling the truth," said Silverman in 2013, according to Ecumenical News.
Ham further explained his views on how atheism has impacted American society, "...We live in a world that is fiercely battling for the hearts and minds of our kids. And yet, it is a world where those who teach their kids the truth of God's Word are accused of child abuse!," said Ham, according to a Charisma News report.
"But Scripture commands believers to 'train up a child in the way he should go' (Prov. 22:6), so we need to boldly stand on the authority of God's Word and teach our children that the Bible's history-and message of salvation-can be trusted," he added.
Ham also revealed a place where people can find out about the validity of the Bible and God's love for his favorite creation, humanity.
"I encourage you to take advantage of our 'Kids Free in 2014' program at the Creation Museum-bring as many kids as you can to hear the message that the Bible can be trusted, there is a God, and He died for them," he concluded.
