It still beats me that some educated folks will attack someone because he doesn't believe in a god. Even our constitution provides for the freedom of religion and conscience..... Conscience here means you can choose what to belief so long it doesn't infringe on another person's right. So, I still marvel when I see insultive comments labelled towards someone who is exhibiting individual consciousness or exercising his/her freedom/rights.

There is a God is all things and all things are god's manifestation. So just because I call my God science and you call yours spirit doesn't make your practice better, it just makes it acceptable because of our gullible environment.

Atheists and Christians that argue bout who's right are dumb and jobless...

why can't you all just mind your businesses and wait till you die... when you die, you will know if you right or wrong...

if you are not patient enough for Death,then try suicide and figure out yourselves...

Christianity is a way of life. Its ya relationship with God not a routine way of worship. I don't blame d atheist for also talking abt religion viz that's wat pple depend upon. They go to d place of worship but don't know who they worship. They only believe on wat they told. Some practice religion in an animalistic way to use pple's blood to enrich dia gods. Ya fellowship wt God depends on ya attitude with God not a doctrinal way of brainwashing pple.

Atheist are agnostics and freethinkers. They are confused and want pple to fall into their category. They are science based. They are d likes of Karl Max who feel that only poor pple disturb God and are God minded. They feel thou a none existing science, d earth came to form.

Some one need to watch GOD IS NOT DEAD. U'll understand better that these atheist dnt just become atheists, something pushed them into it. Their disapproval of how God works makes seem enemies of demselves and God. They'll alws want U to be part of dem. Unfortunatly , those who want to preach God end up spoiling if

Because they are not 100% sure atheism is the right choice. So they always seek evidences to justify their disbelieve in order to appease their troubled minds.

The Fact is that there is no true Atheist.....I just read that there is a system in our thoughts that Ensure that we all believe in a more powerful and bigger being than us...there is another system that tries to tell us such doesn't exist... This system is the one that the Atheists allows to control them despite the fact that the still have the feeling that a supernatural being Or say God exists. They just try hard to hide it...so in the process of Hiding this, they look for a way of doing religious tins but they claim it is not religious eg believing in the power of the mind, or power of the Universe, Yoga, meditation etc....they to not actually believe in God but D̶̲̥̅̊ε̲̣̣̣̥γ̲̣̣̥ still practice some sort of Paganism which at least is not totally free thinking like they claim....you can check bbc for more the Topic is 'Why Religion will never Disappear'....

[size=16pt]You are wrong. Atheists do not care about religion. Except some religious person brings up some irrational statement without evidence. . Plus atheism is not a movement or religion that needs growth, it is an individual thing, individuals go through things, thought processes or get to reach a conclusion that there can't be a God, nobody can preach atheism it is individually discovered.

You are describing the ideal scenario where the pastor, rabbi, pope, or imam conducts his activities with fellow believers without affecting mine. This is rarely the case.

The pope of the Catholic church went to Africa in 2009 and told the people in Cameroon that making condoms available to citizens may be what is INCREASING the HIV infection rate in Africa. Meanwhile 66% of all HIV cases on EARTH are in Sub Saharan Africa, a region which includes Nigeria and Cameroon. When did the pope become an infectious disease specialist? He was speaking with divine authority, because contraception in general is ALREADY prohibited by the Catholic church. Apparently, some guy in the old testament pulled out of a chick he was screwing and spilled his seed on the ground, therefore Africans should not wear condoms because of that now.

In defense of the pope though, he has every right to use his mouth to say rubbish. Have you seen the man's house? It is a whole country, furnished with all the finest things MONEY can buy. And the best of food and soft robes.

So don't tell me that they're not infringing on the rights of others. Boko Haram and ISIS are not bringing matters up for a vote either. They're executing the principles of the story book. Both the Quran and the Bible urge the reader to fU?ck with me somehow. They won't stop and neither will I.

A hypothetical Jesus. Are you unable to use your brain once its locked onto this God business? Telling you what Jesus wouldn't do doesn't mean that the person is acknowledging Jesus to be a real person. Superman wouldn't murder women and small children and he wouldn't curse at people online either. Are you willing to admit that "diaz Superman" too?

Are u saying nature is God or God is nature? Have u hrd of 'Pantheism'? There are theories on natute and God being one and separate. Don't be hasty in saying they are one cos the consequence may be bad.

Hi all, I am interested in Dis argument going on here.

Let me declare my stand first I believe in d existence of God, his power, his will n glory.


To d atheist is one thing to believe n is another to disbelieve. There is freedom of Religion n a choice to accept if u want to be religious or not.
Since u don't believe in God allow does dat believe to continue in dere faith pls.

You all claim u don't believe in God n he does not exist, Now Dis ur argument begs a question, logically it can be inferred dat since God does not exist n we re in a world or to be more since inclined a Universe dat is filled with creatures n form DAT is only possible to cum to being without a super intelligent Creator.

Anaximenes a contemporary philosopher was d to make an indigenous guess as to d origin of man by saying DAT dey came from an animal (apes) of close specie. During deer tym dere was no difference between d scientifically prove n d magical explanation. In other words he was a Free Thinker.


Pls Atheists tell us ur own believe abt d way u think d universe came into being.
Is either u re a Creationist or an Evolutionist. U can't just dispute any fact without concrete reason, we re in d information Age maybe u have read sumtin from sumwere DAT is making u disbelieve in God u have thought abt it succinctly n cum to a conclusion of not believing.


I have been fascinated abt Spirituality for long n I ve read a lot of tins u atheist claim BT it is more confusing compared to d believe in God as a creator.


I knw of d big bang, d nebular theory, d story of d Sumerians n Mayans abt anunaki as d creator of d humans, So anything u think u have to say beta back it up well. I am studying Geology n humanity is a ting of serious interest to me.

I accept cosmogony BT any oda story na wash. Mind u it is area were Science n Theology meet.

Thank u al . happy sunday





lols! I bet you only did phil as GNS/GST!!!!! Anaxemenes a contemporary philosopher? He was an ancient Greek philosopher (one of the Ionians/Miletians) who lived many years before Socrates and he said 'FISH' not apes! Pls oooo don't quote a philosopher if you are not sure.

Many atheist pray when they find themselves in a difficult situation.

Well, your arguments as an atheist doesn't disprove the fact that there is a God, a positive energy.

A deep thinker once said and I quote "I better live as if there is a God, then die to find out there isn't than to live like there is no God, then die to find out there is"

Conclusively, I am a theist because I have been overwhelmed with a miracle than no one can ever attempt to explain.
Many great scientists are theist too.
So don't sound like you are ever-knowing.

To God be the glory.

Because theism is about religion, while atheism is about non-religion. Theists shove theirs religion in our throats the minute we are born and push it all the way to our ass all though our lives. It make atheists who most times had swallowed the consumed religion to fight back, having realized that he had been deceived from birth - That there is no tooth fairy in the sky, waiting to reward or punish us for mandane things.

If theists stops disturbing the atheists in our homes, offices and public places, atheist would not feel the urge to fight back.

Besides are Black Africans not ashamed that we now worship and bow down for white Gods. We dress like the people whose gods we worship, we speak their language, we adopt their writings and literature and we adopt their culture. A black Man think of God (or all his prophets) as an Arab or blue eyed European man. Have we not become subservient to the Arab or European?
