Holy crap, Martha. How is it I never heard this ?
Dietrich Bonhoeffer died an atheist, if he was not one long before prison. OMG.

He was as much an atheist as Karl Barth. Coffeedrinker

Jesus H. Christ. I have to go read Letters and Papers from Prison, like right now.
If, I, as "churchy" as all my shit is, and all the religion I have been exposed to, and I never once heard this,
I am embarrassed. God damn. I have read the Cost of Discipleship, but I did not know this. Great for using in arguments tho. Heh heh.

Slow down there, cowboy.

Look at the source. This is coming from an ultra-fringe-Fundie. They think anyone with less than their sense of commitment is a non-believer. Bonhoeffer is the paragon of the party line for mainline liberal Christianity. His Lutheranism was far from conservative, but he believed in God.

Ok. There is also, I think a collection of Mother Teresa's letters, either out, or coming out. She was a non-believer also. She said, "That which I see in my heart, I dare not name".

You. I see what you did there. It's 13 FUCKING volumes long. I think not. There must be a Cliff notes version.
