From RichardDawkins.net: Matthew Parris: As an atheist, I truly believe Africa needs God.
Now a confirmed atheist, I've become convinced of the enormous contribution that Christian evangelism makes in Africa: sharply distinct from the work of secular NGOs, government projects and international aid efforts. These alone will not do. Education and training alone will not do. In Africa Christianity changes people's hearts. It brings a spiritual transformation. The rebirth is real. The change is good.Read the comments. Some people aren't convinced that Christianity is the only way to change people's hearts for the better. Some people think it might be a wee bit condescending to imply that rationalism might be fine among Caucasians but Africans need superstition.
