I can’t understand what must be in a man’s mind if he doesn’t feel seriously that there is a God when he sees the sun rise

Martin Luther on the sunrises and atheism

But I can’t understand what must be in a man’s mind if he doesn’t feel seriously that there is a God when he sees the sun rise. It must at times occur to him that there are eternal things, or else he must push his face into the dirt like a sow. For it’s incredible that the planets are observed to move without inquiring whether there isn’t somebody who moves them. In other areas it’s known that a house doesn’t build itself, etc. – 1533
