Am atheist Have A Dream by ojimbo(m): 7:25am On Feb 26, 2015
I have a dream that one day, people will stop killing and toturing each other in the name of religion, rather these gods should be allowed to fight agains each other while people will live in peace and harmony

The day we stop fighting one another, the day we come together and relate with one another from the deepest core of our being, a higher dimension; is the day those gods cease to exist.

And all religious, denominational and dogmatic diversity will crumble..

making people value each others life and the earth more than any superstitious mumbo jumbo...

People will stop wishing the earth will be destroyed (christians) while the others will stop destroying it themselves (muslims) and focus on the good of the world..

It baffles me how someone have not finished living this one chance at life that we all have now, but is killing and wasting his time looking for another...

man was not made to live for this world..this life...this life was meant to be traded for a higher incorruptible life...Roman.8:20-23 says For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of
him who hath subjected the same in hope, 21 Because the creature itself also shall
be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children
of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain
together until now. 23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the
firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the
adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

This world is a currency which you traded for a far more higher life...the only purpose for which man is born on earth is TO BE LIKE CHRIST...to be conformed to the image of christ...romans 8:28-29 says And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God,
to them who are the called according to his purpose. 29 For whom he did foreknow,
he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be
the firstborn among many brethren.

Kindly read what you wrote and ask yourself if it makes sense..

Your cousin did not imagine his mother. He sees, knows her hence no need to believe in her by faith alone. He has seen her short comings and her great accomplishment hence no need to make stuff up to make her feel infallible.

Kindly, come back with something better..

@goosebaba... What is faith? It's another reality... A spiritual reality... Just like our earth is real... The spiritual realm too is really and the currency to access that realm is faith... Not just believing... It's a tangible realm... As real as this realm.... The physical realm... This life... I mean this world which the currency to access it is by sight... That's why the Bible says the just shall live by faith... Not by sight which this world has taught us

The Process of Sonship

To be a son of God is to have the life of Jesus in you; it is to be
one with Him. It is to have Him living through you… One might at once
retort, 'I don't want anyone living through me, I want to live my own
life!' But that is a big mistake. That was Adam's mistake. You don't
have your own life! Nobody truly owns his life! You did not create
yourself so which life are you laying claim to as yours?
That is utter madness. That is what it means to be insane when a
created thing seeks its own autonomy as though it created itself. Before
it was created it was nothing. It could not exist, it had no life, no plans,
no ambitions, nothing. Its creator probably one day thought to himself,
'Let me create me so and so...' And that was how it came to be. Now it is
here. It has forgotten its root. It is now laying claims to its life and in so
doing is intent upon denying its creator his right, the pleasure and reason
why he created it in the first place.
This is the root of the first sin. “This sin has been described by
saint Augustine as the result of pride, of the movement whereby a
creature (that is, an essentially dependent being whose principle of
existence lies not in itself but in another) tries to set up on it's own, to
exist for itself”

“From the moment a creature becomes aware
of God as God and of itself as self, the terrible alternative of choosing
God or self for the centre is opened to it”. It is a choice of adopting
either of two philosophies of life. The creature can say, “Nothing I have
is originally my own. I am not even mine; I live to please my owner, and
the life He has offered me is the one I'll live” or he could say, “I do not
trust my owner. I am cleverer than He. I know what is good and what is
bad I want my own space”. The latter choice will tear the created thing
from its creator. This is what the Bible calls rebellion. Not merely the
refusal of the creator's will but the discovery and exploitation of self in
an illegitimate fashion.

We want more hospitals built and not magnificent churches with golden altars

We want good deeds done (lend a helping hand to someone out there) and not clasp them in prayers that solves nothing.
(two hands working achieves more than a thousand clasped in prayers)

We want donations and supplies to the poor, displaced, hunger stricken, famine effected people even in nigeria and east africa and not tithes paid to a pastor on suit with private jets and pot belly.

@johnydon22 and other humanist,liberal,freethinker and atheist in the house...it still amaze me now why atheist who hate God but spend all their life talking, worrying, lamenting against God ...they talk and think of God more the the Christians who believe and love God...the bible says We cant do nothing against the truth but for the truth...God told SAUL in act 26:14... It is hard for you to kick against the pricks...
Question: "What does it mean to kick against the pricks?"

Answer: “It is hard for you to kick against the pricks” was a Greek proverb, but it was also familiar to the Jews and anyone who made a living in agriculture. An ox goad was a stick with a pointed piece of iron on its tip used to prod the oxen when plowing. The farmer would prick the animal to steer it in the right direction. Sometimes the animal would rebel by kicking out at the prick, and this would result in the prick being driven even further into its flesh. In essence, the more an ox rebelled, the more it suffered. Thus, Jesus’ words to Saul on the road to Damascus: “It is hard for you to kick against the pricks.”
When we choose to disobey God, we become like the rebellious ox—driving the goad deeper and deeper. “The way of the unfaithful is hard” (Proverbs 13:15). How much better to heed God’s voice, to listen to the pangs of conscience! By resisting God’s authority we are only punishing ourselves.

or GUYS, do you want to tell me you don't wake up in the middle of the night and cry about your miserable state...the anger, the frustration, the sorrow, the emptiness you experienced...BUT I HAVE A GOOD NEWS FOR YOU...JESUS STILL LOVE YOU TO COME AND ACCEPT HIM...eventhough there are so many things you don't understand about him...but as you walk with him..it will become very clear with time and the end of the day...you will laugh at your foolishness of the past...HE LOVES YOU...

Ok i really thougt i could ignore this but i have to reply to correct your daftness and shallow mindedness that have riddled you wit fallacious assumptions.

First atheists, agnostics etc do not hate any God(s) they are just myths, people dont hate myths just like i wont accuse you of hating God (horus).
saying anybody hate your idea of God is a fallacious statement and most will find it offensive so please refrain from it.

Nairaland is a public forum, so i enjoy coming here to argue amd most of all make people like you think outside the box of the religion they have been indoctrinated into but clearly you are just here to troll threads, make stu.pid assumptions...

And now i wonder if all the mumbo jumbos you yarned above makes sense to you but let me correct a rediculous notion.

@At the bolded is a very wrong assumption and i beg you again to.desist from it we all know lying is wrong so please stop it.

A myth is a myth no matter how much you believe it, we just call myths what they are which is myth. you choose to believe one myth over others is your business.

You can never imagine the freedom, peace and happiness we feel realizing these myths and unshackling ourselves from it.

If i tell you that you feel an emptiness because you reject krishna and that krishna loves you and wants you to come to him am sure you will be offended, so please do not assume such of me or anyone.

[size=20] we choose to live in reality and not myth. the freedom and peace is unmatched[/size]

Of course God exist, without God people wouldn't exist.

It's down grating when we here this same story about the body of Christ globally' not allowing the word of God, to be spoken out for all the world to hear the voice of the Lord, as it's written in the bible.

It's down grating to see Sin had fulfilled the body, allowing the pastors, preachers and priest, some 30-60-100 fold, twisting, teaching and preaching, not the word of God, but a lie from Satan, given man a new doctrine, wolves in sheep clothing have chosen to rip off God's people in tithes and offerings.

2 Corinthians 11: 13-14, "For such as false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.
And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.

Sad as it sounds, people prefer to believe this lie on tithing from the pulpit, then to believe the truth from the word of God.

Deuteronomy 15:7-8, "If there is among you a poor man of your brethren, within any of your gates of your land, which the Lord your God is given you, you shall not harden your heart nor shut your hand from your poor brother.
But you shall open your hand wide to him and willingly lend him sufficient for his need, what ever he needs.

God didn't do wrong, God made away, for people like you.

Matthew 25:35-36, "For I was hungry and you gave Me food, I was thirsty and you gave Me drink, I was a stranger and you took Me in, "I was nxxed and you clothed Me, I was sick and you visited Me, I was in prison and you came to Me.
One person at a time.

Amen
