I believe those gods exist. You have no grounds to justify your lack of belief. This attempt is lame. The Bible mentioned several gods of men made potent by demonic spirits. They all exist.
You have no reason. yahweh is just one of the gods. See the DOCTUFOS of truth for more info. The Almighty God, who created all the gods didn't give up the world for worship but the use of the brains and doing good to fellow human beings. Where does worshipping the ego of a god come to play |

While Nigria has 96% religious folks. It would be a great dishonesty to say religion has nothing to do with our problem. Muslims deny xtians job not because they are unworthy but rather because they don't acknowledge Allah, xtians discriminate muslims and teach their kids not to marry them. Our religiousity mixed with our ignorance is disaster Nigeria is a fine example. You are terribly dishonest. Those countries are religious if you include other religions, they have a large chunk of their population religious, yet they are prospering in every way. By your stupidity, U.S.A which has 76% christians is meant to suffer regression because of the number of religious folks. Russia aint 41% christian, rather they are 75% christian. Are they less better than countries who have more atheists? China will be the largest christian country in the next 15 years, will they suffer too? Those are world powers. Stop being stupid and address the problem. We need education, good and trustworthy leaders and development orientation. You dont need to blame your woes on religion. When U.K was deeply religious, it prospered rapidly. You have no point, you are just a hate filled and bigoted individual who thinks religion is the problem of the world.

Lennycool: This theist tire me sef. Anytime I see a post like this about an atheist turning to a theist or a post about the undeniable existence of God. All they point to is the fact that the universe is too complex to not be just random chance. They point to DNA sequencing and various other feats of nature, but as i will continue to argue over and over again, this doesn't prove that your God exist, it only enhances the possibility of a creator. Creator and God are not the same. You can just point to the universe and claim your God did it, since anyone can you use that line. From the Egyptians to the Greeks and Mayans. Yes, They are giving their facts, pls can you give yours? Since Seun and you people have decide to cure Godly people of their sufferings, You need to start coming out with your facts - All the evidence about God are out there, we've said them over an over, Christians have the Bible that document their believes, Muslims also have their book - You people come up with your facts, Or you want people to just follow you because you say things like being More INTELLIGENT, following proven SCIENCE theories - Bring out those theories that form the basis of your believes, perhaps you can win some people to your side, because it's not easy to win anyone over, who'd followed God, studied the bible, and sees how everything fits the story. Don't take the easy way of just criticizing religious people, come up with your own explanation of why we're here, what's the purpose of life, what is important in life, what happens when we die, We don't even want to preach anymore, we want you to preach to us now! 1 Like |

After death is judgement of which a soul is either eternally damned or eternally saved. If you don't know this, you're not a Christian. You shouldn't judge Christianity by the actions of one church or better still the actions of one sect. Jesus Christ is the standard in Christianity. In my church, no one cares whether you're rich or poor. No one even gets to know whether you pay tithe or not. Christianity is a relationship between you and your God. Princefrankie1: I am not against any form of doctrine, be it Christianity or Hinduism, I was born and brought up in a family of Catholics. I went to the Catholic church from my early adolescence to adulthood. But at a point, as I grew order, I began to question some doctrines. Not just in Catholic, but in the Christian faith generally.
The contradictions and contravention in the Holy book most times got me wondering. Also, the beliefs of most Christians are somewhat different from what I read in the bible.
Also, The church was gradually turning into a monetary convention where funds are raised for different budget implementations. Parishioners were taxed at alarming regularity. The indigents couldn't come anymore. The church was now for the rich. The funny part is, when someone dies and it happens to be that the deceased has failed to pay some levies, he/she will not be buried by the church unless the family pays up. Same modus operandi is applicable to church weddings. These levies run into hundreds of thousands.
I just could go anymore. I had too many questions running through my mind. Even up till now, most of those questions are unanswered. Until those questions are answered with facts, I think I will remain a deist.
One if my questions is, "When someone dies, what happens next"?
Most Christians will tell me "Hell fire or heaven" even when some chapters in the bible says differently. 1 Like |

My Experience, Part 2 – Further Evidence of God
Since that time, now that I've been a Christian for a number of years----why do I now believe in God? What reasons do I have for continuing to believe in God?
I'm not sure any of these are going to be believable to you. But I'll try to put that concern aside and be candid with you. Previously my questions were about God's existence. After beginning a relationship with God, I saw additional evidence that God is real. Such as...
1. When I have questions, concerns, or would like insight on a matter, God speaks to me through the Bible. What he shows me is always perfectly suited to my question, and a better, more satisfying answer than I expected. Here's an example.
One day, my schedule, deadlines, and obligations were crawling up my neck and tightening their hold. You know that feeling when you're so overwhelmed, you don't know what to do first?
So I got out a piece of paper and pen, and asked God: "Just tell me what you want me to do, and I'll do it." I was fully prepared for shouldering 100% responsibility, and was basically asking God to just set the priorities, tell me how to approach it all, and I would.
I then opened my Bible and immediately read where Jesus was talking with a man who was blind. Jesus was asking him, "What do you want me to do for you?"
I read it again. Jesus asked: "What do you want me to do for you?" Rather amazed, I picked up my pen and began writing an entirely different list...to God. This, I have found, is characteristic of God. Reminding us that he is there. That he cares, and he's capable.
I choose that example because it's brief. But I could cite hundreds of examples where I was asking God a question and he perfectly, thoroughly answered me. It probably is the characteristic of God that I most appreciate and value--that he is willing to answer my questions.
This isn't something I learned from other Christians. It's just how my relationship with God operates. I ask a question, with an attitude that I really want to give him freedom to tell me whatever he wants to....to correct my thinking, to point out an area in my life that isn't right, to show me where I'm not trusting him, whatever. And he always graciously speaks to me.
2. Similarly, when I need direction for a decision, he gives it. I believe that God cares about our decisions. I believe he has a plan for our lives, that he cares about who I marry, what kind of job I have, and some decisions smaller than that. I don't believe he cares what toothpaste I buy, or lots of mundane decisions. But decisions that will affect my life or what he wants to accomplish through my life...I think he cares.
When has God given me clear direction?
One time I needed to decide about a trip to the Middle East. There was risk involved, and I was willing to go only if God wanted me to go. It was important to me that I knew what he wanted.
Two different times I asked God about a job. Both times his leading on it was so clear, that anyone watching would have concluded the same. Let me try one thin slice of an example.
During my senior year of college, I had decided to take a job with a Christian organization after graduation, that would require a move to California.
It was Christmas break, and I was now visiting my parents. One evening, I was alone and thinking through a long list of friends. I was wondering who I could talk into moving to California with me to be roommates. One person named Christy, came to mind, who had already graduated and settled in a job in Iowa. I thought she'd be the perfect roommate, but I hadn't talked to her in several months. Just 30 minutes later, at my parents home, Christy calls me on the phone.
Her first sentence was, "I heard you are taking a job with this Christian organization." I was floored because I had only told one friend, in Ohio.
Her next statement was, "Ok, I've got the pots and pans and dishes." I said, "WHAT?!" She was moving to the same town in California and was calling to see if I would room with her.
Ok, so you see my point.
You might ask, why such a big deal, to even need God's help in this decision? I knew that my parents would be completely opposed to this job. I thought it might cost me my relationship with my parents forever. So it was not a light decision. I asked God to guide me toward what he wanted. And he did. There were about ten other events related to this job, just as clear.
Other reasons I still believe in God...
3. In terms of explanations about life--why we're here, what the purpose is, what is important in life, what to value or strive for--God has better answers than anything I've ever read anywhere. I have studied multiple philosophies and religions and other life approaches. What I read in the Bible, what I see from God's perspective, all the pieces of the puzzle fit.
There is still a lot I'll read in the Bible and close the Bible saying, "I don't get it." So I don't mean to suggest I fully understand everything in the Bible. Instead, I'm saying that life only makes sense from the perspective of what God has revealed. It's like reading the operating manual to life on earth, only we are not left to merely follow the manual. The inventor is explaining to us how it all works, and then offers to personally guide us through it, on a daily basis.
4. The intimacy with God is deeper than intimacy with any human being. I say that married, with two children, and tons of very close friends. His love is perfect. He's incredibly gracious. He takes me right where I'm at, and as I said, speaks to me. He intervenes with actions that leave me amazed as the observer. He is not a belief or doctrine. I see him act in my life.
5. He has done more with my life than I would have done on my own. This is not a statement of inferiority or lack of self confidence. I'm speaking in terms of accomplishments that far exceeded what I ever had in mind. He provides ideas, direction, solutions, wisdom, and better motives than I could aspire to on my own.
Well, there is more, but I think that gives you enough. I'm not sure any of it is believable to you, but I've been as honest as I know how to be.
If you would like to see some of the evidence that moved me from my atheist experience to believing in God, please see these two articles: Is There a God? Beyond Blind Faith
