TrollMan:


God Bless America...

In God we trust...

This is just an outcrop to remind you that America is a religious state and as such your argument is void.. AKA Baseless.

You have no point to prove your point.

I prefer to lavish my time in researching about why birds fly or why the grass is green to this..




How ironic....yet there constitution makes claim to freedom of religion and association...whichever and whatever kind it may be...according to choice and predisposition...

MrAnony1: I pledge to Nigeria my country,
to be faithful, loyal and honest.
To serve Nigeria will all my strength,
to defend her unity,
and uphold her honour and glory,
so help me God.


Is it proper for a public official upon being sworn into office to reject the Nigerian national pledge and then go on to sue the state for not changing the national pledge for him?

What next?

"Change the national coat of arms because I'm a Jew and eagles are unclean animals. While you're at it I have a problem with supporting a team called super eagles."?

"Change the cross in the England flag because I am a British muslim"?

Where does it stop?

While I can understand the sentiments of the atheist soldier, I believe that standing up for your beliefs is best shown by forfeiting those things that go contrary to it and not by trying to force them to comply specially with your beliefs.


Edit: Oh wait, "atheism is not a belief" Now that's kinda odd isn't it



u said it all

Neldrizzy: if ur ignorance is refusing you to believe God existence, wah cn you say abt the wonders of nature! BtW hw did you came into this world? Mere coincidence i guess!

LOL! Seriously? How did I come into this world? Do I really need to explain that or you want some experiment on that? grin

Wonders of nature..hehe. Even your forefathers believed their Gods made nature before Christianity and Islam told them it's their own Gods. Battle of the Gods grin

so tell me bro. Exactly what am I ignorant of?

TO MY ATHEIST BROTHERS:

I would like y'all to open a thread, where you guys hang out to reason, discuss and share ideas.

I wanna learn a concept of how you guys have been SUCCESSFUL without acknowledging a supreme being, GOD.

From my discovery, y'all just don't believe in GOD, u detest GOD and its hypocritical.

But was not forced to join the American Air force and cannot claim ignorance of their code of conduct - to swear by God. So he should do it..

Left to me, I think the dude is just taking it overboard. It's just a saying. You don't have to believe in it. People in the military sure don't believe in it, else they wouldn't join a career that means they have to carry firearms and bombs in the destruction of other "God-created" people.

Believing in a supreme being has no correlation with being successful. Bill Gates remains an atheist, and we both know who he is. Chances are you computer runs on an OS made by his company undecided

I don't need to convince you whether I am a Christian or not.

You said I am not a Christian because I didn't support American Airforce when Jesus clearly stated "Love your neighbour as yourself".

You are now the one who's a Christian when supporting people who is going against God's commandment.

Really?? Or you would rather accept what you've been told than reason. How about you correct me if I'm wrong, instead of writing the above?

When Christians see a vision of "devil" and his angels, do they visualise them as white? I think not! grin

All the crap you wrote up there, is a myth propagated by our grandfather or should I say fanatic whites who knows nothing about bible.

Did you know why I made that statement?

Why not ask? The dude was like praising God because Christians are killing atheist.

FYI, Shekau and his cohort kill christians and shout allahu akbar which means Praise to Allah if I am not mistaking. If you don't mind, I'll give you countless of quaranic verse that says about blessing to any Muslim that kills the infidels(Jews, Christians, Pagans etc)

P.S- Alqeada do the same.

Too many uneducated dolts on this thread. Do you seriously think the statement "So help me God" in question is a reference to Jehovah of Christians?
I do not agree with the punishment melted on that soldier. It was more like a breach of contract knowing fully well that he signified "none" as his religion before.
The USA was built as a free society so if they want to continually sell that liberal society thing to the world, they ought not have a problem with that soldier. US was never a Christian country so atheists should please spare us the gibberish and shots.
