Is religion a Club?

Is God Dead?

Since we have embarked on our Multi-Modal Project, I thought it is fitting to post a picture reflecting Religion. 

This is taken from Time magazine seen below and I'm quoting the reason given behind this picture from the article.  
"On Good Friday in April 1966, fifty years ago this month, Time magazine published its famously controversial cover story, “Is God Dead?” Placing that stark query in bold red lettering against an all-black background, the weekly informed readers that those “three words represent a summons to reflect on the meaning of existence.” Written by Time’s religion editor, John T. Elson, the article attempted to capture the nation’s shifting theological mood from the complacent faith of the 1950s to the metaphysical confusion of the mid-1960s."  (TIME) TIME magazine's cover from April 8, 1966

My feelings when I first saw this cover story online, was "WOW!!! That's a Bold question in a BOLD setting". My next thought was "Of course he is not", in answer to the question. This article gives a great comparison between the views of the Christian Faith and those that are Atheist. So read the article to know more!
