This is a great Jonathan Edwards quote on the first page of James Spiegel's new book, The Making of an Atheist: How Immorality Leads to Unbelief.
There is no one thing whatsoever more plain and manifest,
and more demonstrable, than the being of God. It is manifest
in ourselves, in our bodies and souls, and in everything
about us wherever we turn our eye, whether to
heaven, or to the earth, the air, or the seas. And yet how
prone is the heart of man to call this into question! So
inclined is the heart of man to blindness and delusion, that
it is prone to even atheism itself.
