The search for God might be compared to the little boy who went fishing for the first time. He had never seen a real fish, and for all he knew fish were a figment of the imagination. His dad taught him how to bait the hook, toss it in the water, and then watch for the cork to bob. After an hour or so of fishing, without so much as a bite, the boy was becoming quite agnostic about fish. Then it happened. His cork bobbed and went under the water. His fishing line began to move. He felt a tugging on the other end. All of a sudden his agnosticism about fish changed to fear. “What’s on the other end of the line?” “Will it hurt me?” “Maybe it’s a shark!” The search for God is much the same. I cannot tell you what you will find on the end of your line, but I respect anyone who has the courage to throw his/her line in the water. All I can do is help you bait the hook. People who begin to grasp the issues of God’s existence and how complex our universe
