Now there's even a "dial-aprayer" for atheists.

You call a number and nobody answers.

…The fool has said in his heart, there is no God…Psalm 14:1

A story is told of a colony of mice that live at the bottom of a large upright piano.

Everyday, the dark areas of the piano were filled with the sound of lovely melodies and harmonies.

At first, the mice were impressed with the music. They found peace and comfort and realized that Someone unseen made the music-though invisible to them, yet still close to them. They loved to tell the stories to their little ones about this Great Unseen Music Maker whom they could not see.

Then one day an adventurous mouse climbed up part of the way in the piano and returned with an elaborate explanation about how the music was made. He explained to the others that the music was made by tightly stretched wires of various lengths that vibrated from time to time. Well, this aroused the curiosity of a second mouse and he came back and told of hammers-many hammers dancing and leaping on the wires.

The mice came together and decided that their old opinion of the Unseen Music Maker needed to be revised. The theory they developed was complicated, but complete with evidence. In the end, the mice concluded that they lived in a purely mechanical and mathematical world…The story of the Unseen Music Maker was relegated to mere myth.

But the Unseen Music Maker continued to play nonetheless.
