The man who built the hull of the Titanic was an atheist, and he carved on the hull below the waterline, the words, "No God.”
The man who did this was on board at the time of the crash with the iceberg, and went down with the vessel, and like Judas, "he went to his own place.”
Atheism, in its bold defiance of God, challenges judgment, and when calamity falls furnishes no comfort for the bereaved, and no hope for the dying. This man inscribed his motto below the waterline. Very few people would want to sail on a vessel openly flaunting the flag of atheism with that inscription on her figure head. The fear of God is still a wholesome factor in the life of the people.
Great fools not only say it in their hearts, but carve it on vessels, and say it right out.
