Did losing faith change your views/opinions on some issues? Has there also been any change in your character and how you relate with others?

Morning.

Minimally. I was never sheeple anyway

Mr Troll: Minimally. I was never sheeple anyway

Lies....unless u were a unitarian christian or a very liberal christian.

As for me, movies and life made more sense to me.


M€y quest for. Knowledge increased dramatically. I even became more confident- you have only one life so live it up

Not really,pretty much stayed the same, just became more responsible for my actions and sympathetic towards d cause of other minorities in the society,more open minded to knowledge,science et al ,
still always wonder tho at how I believed without questioning the tales I was told then

It modified the way I think. Makes me more of a man willing to take care of my responsibilites,and it has also opened my mind to more knowledge.

yes. my motto b4 atheism was insha allah. Now it is "who dares, wins".

The only thing i lost was the 'fail safe' delusion of having a god that has got your back at anytime. Then, anything i did i always worked hard but when the fear of failure came i believed i had a deity that would help but now that is gone, i kind of miss it. Other than that NOTHING changed because all my life,

I Never believed in heaven and hell

I Never believed in tithing or offering

I Never believed in a lot of things i was expected to believe. I was always a fan of doing whats right and being a pillar to your neighbor.

do you know me in real life?

My church believed in the trinity but I found it confusing. I never did.

We were tithers but I always refused to tithe.

We were big church goers though I complied but I always detested the hypocrisy I found in it.

The only thing I missed was the choir singing. I'm still a chorister though
I still attend music concerts, I honour invitations to sing etc.

Though I read the bible a lot, I later realised I was also a victim of cherry picking. Moulding Yahweh after my own image

I am quite gentle and soft spoken. I still am. All what changed were internal...

Sweet lies

nothing much
except that I'm more interested in science now. I no longer say goddidit. I try to find answers to even the weirdest stuff that happened around me and I'm now responsible for everything I do or didnt do now. in Short I'm in control.

I've become 33.3% more eviler than before.

the only thing i realised was the cherry picking when I started having doubts and questioning my beliefs. The rest were with me from childhood. I always found it difficult accept what didn't seem reasonable.

Et tu, brokoto? And to think I once trusted you enough to give you my personal details. Yet you still went ahead to post my full names here on NL. Definitely taught me a big lesson

Mr.T Anonymous:

Same here.


I was kinda more interested in
- forgiveness: how do you react when someone wrongs you.
- tribalism/racism

Excuse you?

Mr Troll:

Excuse you?

Excuse you, judas. I'm done with you, BROKOTO.

I am deleting you from my facebook page, btw. Bloody backstabber

aManFromMars: Lmao, troll u go choir practice today?

lol. I dont go to church anymore. I've not gone to church for some years now except on wedding invitations, burials etc. I'm not a church chorister.

Hahahaha, losing faith and increasing folly.

Proverbs 13:16 Every prudent man dealeth with knowledge: but a fool layeth open his folly.

Better go and believe in God and live right.

My personal troll, honored you graced the thread.


Keep doing what you do best.

Faith is something I never ever had despite trying so much and opening my mind to it.
I truly don't know how or why people believe and anchor their worldview on the morals, opinions and philosophies of stone age people.

I don't know why anyone could believe that god would heal or cure them of illness when god could not cure lepers in the old testament.

The only change in me was when I accepted that the universe did not need a creator, I began to see existence in much greater clarity.
I began to see interconnectedness rather than isolated pieces.
I began to see that faith was a burden , and began to pity those who carried this burden.

pls take your paranoia elsewhere. Dafuq

Two faced, backstabbing Judas.

are you alright? Do you need a hug? What exactly are you on about?

Frankly speaking, and I am not exaggerating, I have seldom ever seen a calm non-conflicting religious(particularly Christian) person in my life .
I have hardly come across a christian exhuding calmness, radiating sincere Joy or love.

A christian, at all times, has to watch his back for the devil and his many demons, ancestral spirits, marine spirits, witches, etc.
A christian is so conflicted about what he believes, that calmness that comes with inner harmony, sincerity and love are rarely there.

I mean look at you, with all the time you spend defending tithe( your right to live of the sweat of the others).
That fact that you cannot agree with your fellow christians about what is scriptural is a heavy burden no one should carry.

So, there is nooo way anyone can believe in god and live right, because , like I have stated in my previous threads, faith, the belief in God , is simply the very extreme form of doubt.

That is a burden that no one should be carrying about.
