Who are you addressing? If atheists, then you should know that none of us believe in supernatural events or powers, so all those rituals and cults are fake. If you are addressing people that believe in those things, then you are not addressing atheists.

I feel indebted to this forum because it was Africa that made me an Atheist. What Good God would allow people to suffer and be exploited for so long. Nigerians need to start asking Pastor Chris and T.B. Joshua to step off the private jets and elegant mansions they own and take it to the streets to fight corruption and establish infrastructure, transparency and Jobs for Africans. Bill Gates is doing more to fight Malaria than any Christian. Did you see how righteous Pat Robertson used Aid to the Rwanda conflict as a cover to fly in his factory trawlers to dredge diamonds with the assistance of warlords? Keep your blind faith on that straight and narrow path and watch yourself continue to be taken advantage off by the oppressor who brought you your Abrahamic Faith. Blind leading leading the Blind, open up your eyes, read these links and tell me if your still a believer? If you have the courage to truly read these links you will understand how I can be an atheist.

texanomaly:

First:
God created Adam and Eve literally. No if's, and's, or butts about it.

Second:
I don't believe in the trinity. I believe God has a glorified body. Jesus is his only begotten son. A separate being with a glorified body too. (Yes I said BODY) The Holy Ghost is a spirit being.

Third:
Yes. (I have no idea exactly how He did it.)

That is my belief. I'm sure many on both sides will disagree, but that is not my concern. It's not something I will debate with ANYONE. I will be happy to hear your opinion. I'm glad you have one. I find all religions and non-religions festinating actually.

Fxwarrior: What if after construction of a house I told you,I don't believe you built this house.How would you feel?

Annoyed. I see where this analogy goes. But it fails because we have evidence to builders from direct observation and common experience. Even still some claims to building would be doubted given poor evidence. For example, few would doubt an Eifell tower in Nigeria by Nigerians cause we lack the labour skills requisite.

Fxwarrior: As a baby in the womb,what if I told you about the world?Would you believe me?


No, I won't. I am a baby in the womb and wouldn't even comprehend what you say.

Fxwarrior: As someone who spent his lifetime in village devoid of civilisation,what if I told you about America ?Would you believe me?

No. Till you showed me directly or gave evidence in form of a good relic from there.

If God acted as the dude in the OT. I am pretty damn sure there'll be little or no atheists and the world would be a lot different from now. Harsh but that kind would be okay as evidence for atheists. Note God repeatedly did those miracles eg speaking to crowds in OT and science involves reeatable observations eg a ball fallng to the ground.

No, Christianity does not give full meaning to our existential issues. It does not address the issue of suffering properly. It gives a generic purpose/meaning in life to all human regardless of of our pecularities and which is obviously inadequate.
Re: Questions For Atheists!!! by anochuko01(m): 7:20am On Nov 09, 2013
Why is 'killing' and 'stealing' a crime today. Also, aw did Little moral values like 'always sayin the truth' and 'obedience' come into existence. Does it mean that leaders around the world sat together and concluded on it? Whats the ORIGIN of morals?

just as NOKIA wont write the WHOLE FUNCTIONS (except basic)of its phone in its manual and u discover abt it as time goes on, so can u nt discover ALL about christainity OUTSIDE IT. U knw more abt life, God, ur-self and all other thngs as time goes on

Tell me what is your purpose in life?
Re: Questions For Atheists!!! by anochuko01(m): 8:45am On Nov 09, 2013
Kay 17: Tell me what is your purpose in life?
i love this questn...bro.
Despite the fact that i'm an under-graduate, i've had enough 'words of assurance and revelatns from God' concerning my purpose in life, both in carrear and ministry. This is something i would av never been able to know without aving a living relatnshp with God.

Jeremiah didnt know the purpose of his life until he knew God. God even went on to empower him and gave him all he needed to fufil dis purpose (jeremiah 1:4-10). This is what God has done for me, and he will do 4everyone who comes to him (jeremiah 29:11-13).

I'v tasted both sides of life (life without and with God) and i can say that there's nothing lyk aving a living relatnshp with God. Discovering one's purpose in life starts with discovering God.
Re: Questions For Atheists!!! by UyiIredia(m): 10:23am On Nov 09, 2013
@ anucoku: These words of assurance are simply your mind playing you. Would you believe a person's belief that God told him to kill his wife, or a woman that God'll have her kill her kids,they believe these things as much as you and heard CLEAR words of assurance. I find it funny, even ironic where it's a Christian psychiatrist such cases as mental disorders, when such is said to be certainly not of God. How u take know. God no tell Pa Abram to kill Isaac ? And for NT before u say Jesus blood don cover this, God no use Holy Spirit kill Ananias and Sapphira ?
