What we have here, is a lack of understanding

What's the proper course of action when you don't understand something? Should you research and study it? Nope, just ask Billy Graham!

DEAR DR. GRAHAM: I believe in God because I don’t think it’s logical to think this universe just happened. But where does Jesus fit into the picture? I apologize for asking what’s probably a simple question, but I didn’t grow up in a church-going family. — H.R.

Sorry HR, this isn't so much an easy question so much as a painfully sad one. What HR fails to realize is that his thinking it isn't logical is meaningless when compared to the facts and evidence that it is...

DEAR H.R.: Don’t apologize; I’m thankful you want to learn about God! As I’ve often said, the person who’s in the greatest danger spiritually is the one who never thinks about God or wants anything to do with Him.

So... Billy is in terrible danger with Thor then?

You’re right; it’s not logical to think that the universe just “happened.” Whether we look into the heavens through a telescope or examine a droplet of blood through a microscope, we see incredible beauty and complexity that could only come from the hand of an all-wise and all-powerful Creator. As the Bible says, “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands” (Psalm 19:1).

Billy, Billy, Billy... A lack of understanding about cosmology, physics, evolution, and the scientific process in general is not proof of a creation. It's only proof that you ignore or didn't bother to try and learn the explanations that are actually backed up by cold hard facts.

But looking only at the created world doesn’t tell us everything we need to know.

Prove that it's even a creation at all please...

For example, it doesn’t tell us if God loves us and cares about us. 

Don't worry, the Bible very clearly shows that he doesn't.

Nor does it tell us how we ought to live. 

We figured that one out on our own too. Social creatures and all that...

Most of all, it doesn’t tell us what we ought to do about the sense of sin and guilt we all feel in our hearts.

We sorted that one out too. Empathy is pretty damn powerful. Plus the previous one funnels in here as well.

And this is why Jesus Christ came into the world. He was God in human form, and He came to demonstrate God’s love to us. He did this by giving His life for us, so we could be forgiven of our sins and go to be with Him in heaven forever.

Yes, we've all heard this before. But I still want to know... Why the huge production for something that wasn't even necessary?

God will accept you just as you are, and you can begin your journey of faith by asking Christ to come into your heart today. Your life will never be the same.

You see... That's the thing. He doesn't take you as you are.  He requires you to conform to one demand (if not more) otherwise he doesn't give a toss and sends you to hell. That doesn't sound very loving and accepting to me.
