An atheist "church" set up shop in London recently, and you can read about it here. It's very sad to see the search for deeper meaning in life after the rejection of God. It's sadder still to see the report of a local pastor giving his approval.
"Actually, the biggest aggression towards us has probably been from atheists saying that we're ruining atheism and not believing in God properly. So that's quite funny."
The assembly met the approval of local vicar Dave Tomlinson, who came from his church two miles away to see what his new rivals were up to.
"Being here, I felt there was as much of what I call 'God' as there was in my own church this morning," he said. "Everything we've said here would be completely at home in my church. I hope it grows and sustains."
I don't doubt he's right.
