fifa456n: What evidence do you need again? They should go to heaven and bring God down or they should go to the tumb and put Jesus back. Bible says all creations are witness about His work. Just click on my username and view most of my recent post. Are you a descendant of Adam or ape-like? |

Adam is mythical story of the creation, just like Yoruba's have theirs, the Egyptians, the greeks. The Adam and Eve are the mythical tale of Hebrews. Bible vindication of Yaweh is not evidence of his existence. |

fifa456n:So you finally believe in evolution, or you can believe in anything. Afterall it is a free world! Nobody is forcing you to give up on your beliefs. Just like I wrote earlier, I have seen atheists give up on their beliefs and turn monotheists or polytheists, and vice-versa. Like you, I have thought deeply about so many things that surround us on this planet, about God et c. In fact, who has not. On freewill, it is so, so real. Even the bible says we are created in God's own image. I know so many times I have used my senses to see the outcome of a venture, yet I go ahead and give it a try, hoping it turns out contrary to what I had on mind. Talking about diseases, I do not know your ancient people's views on it. My great ancestors classified it into two: The one with a physical cause, needing you to go into bush and cut some grasses or herbs; the one with a spiritual cause, where you had to consult a 'dibia' and offer some sacrifices. I have old relatives who still do not believe orthodox medicine, who use herbs and consult native doctors. That is, not everyone, centuries ago, believed that every sickness was caused by the devil. We have been given the power to subdue the world. Some do and praise their God(s), some do and challenge their Maker. |

peterphd: Aha...the bold is all that is needed from the above...it really matters not whether the Christian is able to prove his claims scientifically as the Atheist demands...what matters is whether the Atheist can prove the claims he himself is making... peterphd: Nah mehn...I am not asking Atheists to disprove my claim...far from it. I am only asking them to prove the claims they make...if you claim that there is no God, then prove it... If you can't prove it then it only follows that your claim that God does not exist is backed up by faith...refer to the definitions given by muskeeto.... Have you asked yourself why the God ish is beyond the scope of science? |
Re: I am an Atheist ask me any questions. by Nobody: 9:52pm On Jun 01, 2013 |
Prosper793: You are now taken the argument to another level... We set out to prove whether or not Atheism as practiced by some is backed up by faith or not... In order to prove this, we needed to know what faith is...muskeeto gave us some brilliant definitions of faith... Next we needed to demonstrate that some Atheists make claims of their own... The next stop is to show that the claims they have made cannot be proven e.g not backed by scientific evidence... Ones we are able to show all the above then what we have set out to prove is proven...QED!!! And that was what I demonstrated with my little dance. |
Re: I am an Atheist ask me any questions. by peterphd(m): 9:55pm On Jun 01, 2013 |
striktlymi:It seems you didn't get my analogy of "a" and "b" options.Let's say your claim is "a" and mine is "b" and that the answer must be between the two it then follows that if "a" Os wrong, "b" is correct.How can unbelief be backed up by faith as we know in the religious context? That's like saying you need faith to say 2 + 2 = 4. You don't need faith when the evidence is so glaring. |

Re: I am an Atheist ask me any questions. by Nobody: 10:12pm On Jun 01, 2013 |
peterphd: The above really is the logical fallacy that some Atheists commit...because we have not been given concrete proof of the existence of God then it means that there is no God...this is fallacious. You do not assume that the converse of something is correct because a scientific proof is yet to be given. It's just like saying that since there exist no scientific proof that the Earth is spherical then it follows that the Earth is flat...this is very incorrect. peterphd: Again you take this to a new level...I am not talking about unbelief or a refusal to believe...I am talking about the belief some Atheists have which is yet to be substantiated. peterphd: What evidence? |
Re: I am an Atheist ask me any questions. by peterphd(m): 10:26pm On Jun 01, 2013 |
striktlymi:1. we both know that in this case the converse rule must apply.its either the god exists or it doesn't.if you know any state in between the two please share. 2.what beliefs? We both know that atheists have their reasons as a result of religion's very pronounced failures and contradictions. 3.the evidence is this case is the failure of theists to provide conclusive evidence. |

Re: I am an Atheist ask me any questions. by Nobody: 11:03pm On Jun 01, 2013 |
peterphd: Of course! It's either he exists or he does not...but saying that he does not exist on the basis that you are yet to get a 'conclusive evidence' to support his existence is very inappropriate... peterphd: To say that God does not exist is a belief... Now for the alleged failures and contradictions...this is a discourse for another day I guess. peterphd: To fail to prove a position scientifically is not evidence that the converse is correct...I believe I have already demonstrated this point. |

fifa456n: I am an Atheist. I was raised up by my mom only as my Dad was abroad in Canada and Later United States. Growing up, i went to church just like many other kids in Nigeria, I was honestly curious about God and i asked my mom questions about God, but i was quickly shunned and told the usuall bs answer, God is Mysterious, dont question God and such. Later, i repressed these curious questions and feelings about God, especially after stories of hell, and i started to believe and worship God. I moved to the United States in 2007, and around my junior year in high school, it all changed. I had a friend who was brought up in a christian household just like i was and he eventually became an Atheist, i started to question to, but was still sort of a theist, until i met a guy who lived closed to me, we started talking and he mentioned stuff about islam and how Jesus is not really a divine God or anything, he also criticized christianity and he made some good points, so i started doing research online and before i know it, i realized that it was all a lie. Fast forward to my freshman year in College, I reached the conclusion that I am an Atheist, free from dogmatic principles, Free at Last!Are you sure you really want to be questioned? 2 Likes |

fifa456n: The Christian God is a diety of primarily of Hebrews, just like the Olodumare of Yoruba. The lack of concrete evidence for a God made me lose a belief in a God. The same lack of concrete evidence is what makes some Christians disbelieve evolution. No one has ever seen a fish evolve into a mammal, or a mammal evolve into an aquatic mammal. Yet you say there is OVERWHELMING evidence. These evidence are (conclusions) extrapolated from concrete data. I think God is extrapolated too. What do you think of Aquinas' Five proofs ? |
Re: I am an Atheist ask me any questions. by UyiIredia(m): 11:26am On Jun 02, 2013 |
fifa456n: I am neutral, i see the reason for humans to claim a God must have created the universe, but there is no true evidence that a creator did just speculaton. By, concrete evidence do you mean a manifestation of God or or spirit beings (angels, demons, ghosts) as documented in the Bible ? Have you told your parents you are an atheist, if so, what was their reaction ? What course are you studying ? |
