Heres what can happen if you listen to atheist professors in the classroom and accept their reasonings without screening off the lies they teach using the lens of Gods word. NEWSBOYS CO-FOUNDER DENOUNCES CHRISTIANITY: ‘I’M NOW AN ATHEIST’ The Newsboys is one of the most popular Christian bands ever—most recently reminding fans why with the hit theme song for the movie Gods Not Dead that tackles atheism head on. Thats one more reason why its so disturbing that one of its co-founders, George Perdikis, has renounced Christ and embraced a godless worldview. Im now an atheist, Perdikis wrote in guest post on the Friendly Atheists Patheos blog. I always felt uncomfortable with the strict rules imposed by Christianity. All I wanted to do was create and play rock and roll... and yet most of the attention I received was focused on how well I maintained the impossible standards of religion. I wanted my life to be measured by my music, not by my ability to resist temptation. Perdikis left The Newsboys in 1990, which is when his heart began to stray from Christianity. In the post, he explains how carved out a life for myself away from church and started his own voyage of inquiry into what he believed. He explored cosmology and was fascinated by the works of Carl Sagan, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Lawrence Krauss, Brian Cox and Richard Dawkins. By 2007, I renounced Christianity once and for all and declared myself an atheist, Perdikis says. The Christian music scene is populated by many people who act as though they have a direct hotline to a God who supplies them with the answers to the Universe. There seems to be more ego and narcissism amongst Christian musicians than their secular counterparts. charismanews/opinion/watchman-on-the-wall/47998-newsboys-cofounder-denounces-christianity-i-m-now-an-atheist
