"I hate the thought of a God who literally barged into our world and our species, who interfered with our lives and our values and perhaps even our human nature. I hated it because I wanted to be on my own, to be my own boss, my own God. And I'm convinced that many people reject Christianity -- traditional, biblical, orthodox Christianity, with its active, loving, interfering, demanding God -- for that reason. Not because the evidence proves it's untrue, but because they don't want it to be true."
CS Lewis in a fictional conversation with JFK and Aldous Huxley in Peter Kreeft's "Between Heaven and Hell".
