johnydon22:Lol. How do you expect me to give an answer to a question with a 'certain' irrationality from your own viewpoint? Explain. |

These theists can't even differentiate between atheists and scientologists.. I'd keep quite until I find a rational enough post. 1 Like |

johnydon22:You don't seem to get it, bro. Someone put forward a question which you claimed is irrational. I then asked you how it is irrational and you told me to answer the question. Do you really know what is happening or what you are saying? |

Ain't creation fundamentally part of our own nature? Aint it one of our strongest driving forces? Just look around...we all create...every day... Even when we think about God or his non-existence or the laws of physics and evolution...we create our own theories. From that perspective, the question mentioned in this topic ain't that senseless. I dont really know the nature of an atheist...but it is probably also driven by a creative force. Maybe by thinking about their ideal world, atheist will discover that even their own atheistic theories are a form of creation ;-)...To me atheism is as much a religion as those who believe in God or ... Even science is a religion to a certain extent. In the end, we are all biased and limited...we just give different names to the parts we don't understand ;-) 2 Likes |

WhatDoYouBelieve? Many religious fundamentalists believe that the earth and everything on it was created in six 24-hour days, just a few thousand years ago. Some atheists would have you believe that God does not exist, that the Bible is a book of myths, and that all life is the product of random, undirected events. The majority of people hold views that are somewhere between these opposing ideas. The fact that you are reading this brochure likely indicates that you are one of them. You may believe in God and respect the Bible. But you may also value the opinion of highly trained and influential scientists who do not believe that life was created. If you are a parent, you may wonder how to answer your children when they ask questions about evolution and creation. WhatIsthePurposeofThisBrochure? It is not the purpose of this material to ridicule the views either of fundamentalists or of those who choose not to believe in God. Rather, it is our hope that this brochure will prompt you to examine again the basis for some of your beliefs. It will present an explanation of the Bible’s account of creation that you may not have previously considered. And it will emphasize why it really does matter what you believe about how life began. Will you trust the claims of those who say that there is no intelligent Creator and that the Bible is unreliable? Or will you examine what the Bible actually says? Which teachings are worthy of your trust, your faith: those of the Bible or those of evolutionists? ( Hebrews 11:1) Why not review the facts?

AStudent’sDilemma Peter shifts uneasily in his chair, a knot forming in his stomach. His teacher, a woman he respects, has just finished describing how Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution advanced scientific understanding and liberated mankind from superstitious beliefs. Now she has invited her students to express their opinions on this topic. Peter faces a dilemma. His parents have taught him that God created the earth and all life on it. They say that the Bible’s account of creation is trustworthy and that evolution is simply a theory—one not supported by the evidence. Peter’s teacher and his parents all mean well. But whom should Peter believe? Each school year, scenarios like the above play out in thousands of classrooms around the globe. What should Peter and students like him do? Would you not agree that they really need to make up their own minds on this matter? They need to examine the evidence for evolution and for creation and then decide for themselves which they will believe. In fact, the Bible warns against blindly believing what others teach. “Anyone inexperienced puts faith in every word,” states one Bible writer, “but the shrewd one considers his steps.” ( Proverbs 14:15) The Bible encourages Christians to use their “power of reason” and to prove to themselves the things they are taught.— Romans 12:1, 2. This brochure is not designed to support the efforts of religious groups who want to have creation taught in schools. The purpose of this brochure is to examine claims made by those who teach that life appeared spontaneously and assert that the Bible’s account of creation is a myth. We will focus on the cell because that is the most basic unit of life. You will be able to review some amazing facts about how cells are built. You will also be asked to analyze the assumptions that underpin the theory of evolution. Sooner or later, all of us need to confront the question, Was life created, or did it evolve? You likely have already given this topic serious thought. This brochure will present just some of the evidence that has led many to believe that life was created. What's the origin of life?

davidylan: My brother, Einstein didn't believe in personal Gods. Thomas Paine didn't believe in personal Gods. Feel free to correct me. |
Re: A Challenge To Nairaland Atheist by Nobody: 6:07am On Feb 24, 2015 |
Weah96: Somebody already did... you simply doubled down on your ignorant opinion rather than correcting yourself. |
Re: A Challenge To Nairaland Atheist by Weah96: 12:44pm On Feb 24, 2015 |
davidylan: Somebody did? Where? In Asia Minor, Abuja, or here on NL? I don't blame you, you're a shameless person. Show me where Einstein believed in personal Gods and you come here to reference anonymous contributors. I'm now supposed to go canvassing NL for a poster called "Someone" because you lack the stones to man up and make your own contribution. 2 Likes |
