I am a daylight atheist.

I am a daylight atheist.

Summary

The phrase "I am a daylight atheist" implies that the individual does not believe in or acknowledge the existence of any deities or higher powers during the day, suggesting that their atheism is more prominent and apparent when they are fully awake and engaged in the everyday world. It might reflect a personal stance where their disbelief is not just a quiet or hidden belief, but one that they openly embody and express during their regular daily activities.

Theologians talk about a prevenient grace that precedes grac

Theologians talk about a prevenient grace that precedes grace itself and allows us to accept it. I think there must also be a prevenient courage that allows us to be brave - that is, to acknowledge that there is more beauty than our eyes can bear, that precious things have been put into our hands and to do nothing to honor them is to do great harm. And therefore, this courage allows us, as the old men said, to make ourselves useful. It allows us to be generous, which is another way of saying exactly the same thing.
