Didnt greek mythology also have Zeus as the head of gods?


Ifa worship? I fear you!

Yes but Zeus wasn't the Creator. It was his father Cronos and his mother Gaia. Why you dey fear. I was cool with Ifa worship. I particularly loved the guinea fowl meat we used to eat after every sacrifice.

Wow, why did you leave Ifa?

I decided it was too fetish. Besides my late mom also influenced me, she too was beginning to have doubts about the religion.

manmustwac: this is just your own church brain's biased christian point of view about why we ex christians became atheists. Since you can't think outside the box of religionit will be very difficult for you to understand with that big mental block called faith blocking your senses

Why did you became an atheist? it's obvious it was for one of the reasons I listed above

perfect thread. also brah, dont forget these atheists got demons on em you gotta have demons on you to go against the most high. i dont care what anyone says. you gotta be infested by a legion of demons to do that. hailings mi compadre en Yah

The true god and his true son with that desire and that want. Why isn't he questionable? Why is he a mystery? Why is he beyond reason?

The true God is not unquestionable, a mystery or beyond reason. People wrapped him in that cloak throughout history but He sent his Son to correct that anomaly. The books of Habbakuk and Job in the Bible chronicle the experiences of people that questioned God - and these men were not struck dead for doing so. God is not beyond reason. We human beings all have an innate desire to worship something - its something we cannot deny because we were wired up that way. Some have satisfied this desire with the worship of knowledge, material things, intellect and even self. But the God phenomenon cannot be reasoned away - even though its hard to wrap our minds around it, it is part of us anyway.

plaetton:

First, I did not say the three books made me an atheist. I am convinced that I was born an atheist, to question things, especially something as important as religious beliefs.
The books led me to the realization and full acceptance of a reality that I had been running away from, even while persuing same.
The books did not reveal anything entirely new, but just helped to point out realities that I had ignored, even though they had been in plain sight all along my journey.

And from whom would you prefer to gain knowledge or useful information , some academic dons, or from stone-age cave dwellers, tent dwellers and sheep herders of the middle east? You are entitled to your choice.

I have long created my own god, an evolving god. I created it , so I set the rules, boundaries and control it. It has no choice but to evolve with my mind.

As for praying to the holy spirit, do you mean to say that I had been dialing the wrong number all this time?

Err... guy, I didn't get my knowledge from stone-age (huh?!) cave dwellers etc. God inspired several men to write the bible, MAJORITY of which were learned and didn't fall into any of the primitive categories you listed. And even if they did, they were inspired of God.

Your god evolves? Okay, aren't you bothered it could someday evolve into Hitler or something spooky?

On your last point, I really don't know. But there's a good chance. Like I said before, it is strongly advisable that you take another good look at Christ before you conclude.

Yes, we have an innate desire to make sense of our existence and understand our place in the universe.

Therefore, this so-called innate desire to worship something is nothing but an innate desire for understanding, an innate desire for self-validation.

Creating a god to cap that desire is instinctive. that is why god is omni this and omni that. that omniness seem to offer safety and assurance by filling all the gaps in a mysterious and little understood universe.

So, long before we formulated a coherent system of observation, experimentation and analysis as the means of understanding the universe, the humans of far antiquity opted for a simplified way of viewing existence and the universe.
They answered the questions of existence by creating a creator, a supreme being imbued with our highest ideals and characteristics.

The belief in God is simply a filling of a knowledge gap.

Christianity has fatal flaws by claiming a perfect creator with a broken will and creation. The necessity of Jesus is weakness of the god. The need for a saviour diminishes the almighty.

An what makes you think that the books I quoted, written by academic dons, were not inspired by this god?
So God inspires stone-aged cave dwellers,tent dwellers and sheep herders, but does not inspire, and perhaps hates, Ivy league dons, jesuit priests and reknowed journalists?

If you prefer to know the mysteries of existence through the minds of stone-aged sheep herders,well, good luck to you.

The ultimate authority of Christianity rests on you. The Bible's justification is found in your unfounded belief that its inspired by god

that's all these atheists do, it's getting boring and stale these days , they whine all day long about God and Christianity as if this will add any value to their lives.

How utterly weird to spend so much time on the unreal !

What a funny thread!
I refuse to put mouth!

And how did christ come in to this picture. I thought we were talking about god.
Do you know what christ is? I am very very sure you do not.

And by the way, I did find Jesus too, and when I looked harder, I also found the Christ.
So I am somewhat satisfied, I have found god, found Jesus and found the Christ.

Thats why I became an atheist, a pantheistic atheist.

It is a real strong hold of demonic proporitions , and what makes it even more funny is that the same demons who are leading them astray believe in ONE GOD, how strange

I go die ooooo

frosbel:

Yes o.
There is no contradiction there.
But One of the benefits of not being beholden to a god is that one does not fear any contradiction.

plaetton, your level of confusion has passed me oh, I have to leave you to God, seriously!

Academic dons formed part of the people that wrote the Bible. Luke was a historian, Paul was a former Pharisee, one of the OT writers was a scribe - THESE WERE THE INTELLECTUAL PROFESSIONS OF THEIR DAY! I don't know where you got the idea that God hates academics.

WHAT DID YOU SAY CHRIST IS?!? My brother, I beg you, please run FAR AWAY from that deceptive doctrine of the New Age Christ. The Christ you make reference to is an imposter. The REAL Christ is the son of God revealed in the Holy Bible.

The end of intellectualism without God is a deep dark terrible tunnel, though the path trail may look very tempting, whispering its empty promises of superiority and possession of the deepest level of wisdom. Please run away from deception. 'There is no knowledge, or wisdom, or counsel, against the Lord'. Anything that is masquerading as such is simply foolishness. That's all I can say.

Yet Christianity hasn't been able to have such an intellectual impact/force. It comes across as ill prepared, poorly conceived and stupi.d. (Not saying Christians are stupid). It seems to rest on superstition and unjustifiable assumptions.

Thank you sister Mollie!

The bolded is why so many christians are being led astray today. False teachers & doctrines; all these are end time prophecies!

Scripture says:

1Timothy 4:1-3 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron 3 Forbidding to marry, [and commanding] to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth

2Corinthians 11:14-15 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Who is the false prophet?! The loyal opposition??

Kay 17: Also one can choose to bash a religion or not

why not open your own thread and do bashing instead of suggesting this on some ones else thread that he had expressly said "no bashing" ?

*sigh*

Kay 17:

look at this one that cannot add a second to his life span claiming and aski circular question?

Uyi Iredia:

Yes but Zeus wasn't the Creator. It was his father Cronos and his mother Gaia. Why you dey fear. I was cool with Ifa worship. I particularly loved the guinea fowl meat we used to eat after every sacrifice.

actually there are various interpretations to this. one of them is that Chronos, a.k.a time, is independant of both material and the spiritual world. even the Gods dey fear time because time goes forever forward. CHronos giving birth to Zeus might symbolically mean that even Creation was contained by time, i.e, time preceeded creation. There is similar hypothesis in Hinduism where the great epics begin with the mention and respects paid to eternal forever ongoing time.

Uyi Iredia:

I decided it was too fetish. Besides my late mom also influenced me, she too was beginning to have doubts about the religion.

too fetish you meant too ritualistic how is that an excuse ive always found rituals a meaningful and purpose-filled activity. rituls instill me with a sense of capability and ability to be closer with spirituality.

I think Mollie has made a point.

Allow God fill in the emptiness and void in your lives , it must really hurt when you rant against GOD night and day and he does not even respond , somewhat akin to you and your cohorts beating at the air with no impact whatsoever.
