An Atheist's Faith

An atheist and a priest debating about the existence of God...

Atheist: "Prove to me that there’s a God and I’ll become a Christian."

Priest: "Oh, no, you don’t. You’re in the minority in this world. You prove to me that there isn’t a God and I’ll become an atheist!"

Atheist: "We’ll, I can’t."

Priest: "What? You believe in something you can’t prove? My dear, that means you have faith. Faith is believing in something you can’t prove. And if you’re right, if there is no God, you’re never going to know it. But if I’m right, and there is a God, you’re going to know it forever and ever!"
