The philosopher speaks
Epicurus opines on the problem of God and evil. Smart guy!
Incidentally, the "33 A.D." bit seems to throw people off. It seems clear to me that it's not intended as a date for Epicurus' quote (he lived centuries earlier), but points to the death of Jesus as an atheist "win". Which is a jab that's unnecessarily inflammatory, irrelevant to the quote, and odd too, too, as Jesus' alleged killers weren't atheists.
That aside, Epicurus' fine quote is something I'd call an atheist "win". Gotta memorize that one!
