Good point.
We should change that national anthem line to "There Is No God".
What do you think

Even for you, this is a rather simple-minded response.

A National anthem is supposed to be an all-inclusive method to strip away individual differences between the people to highlight one uniting factor: Our nationality. This little phrase in the anthem reveals the intolerance of the majority to the irreligious minority. The discrimination is on a fundamental level. That's why people get angry at our dissenting opinions without ever trying to understand where we are coming from.

Historically, MLK was called an extremist and a militant in how he went about things. Today he's a hero. Now, don't get me wrong, atheists in Nigeria aren't going through half of what blacks went through back then but discrimination is not a competition. As long as it exists, something should be done about it.

When I'm 70, I'll like to live in a Nigeria where everyone is treated equally. Atheists won't have to hide. Same-sex marriage is legal. Sharia Law isn't applied to minors, etc. By pointing out the flaws in religion, I hope to show people that their beliefs are not absolutes, in order to inspire tolerance in the future.

It would be nice to know that I helped to drive positive change. Anybody who said that atheists shouldn't speak out is not helping to drive positive change in this area.

Seun:

Atheists will stop talking about God when you stop believing in things for which there is no good evidence, which are almost certainly not true.

I hope you mean nairaland atheists because i ve not seen Mark Zukerberg attacking religious people on facebook as you and your cohorts do here so don't generalize,
I saw Mark Zukerberg visiting countries and interacting with people irrespective of their religous background on how he can improve their IT, not on how he can destroy religion. I also saw Maek Zukerberge visit the pope. When will the foolish atheists (wannabes) in nairaland start learning from this guy or has your foolishness gone beyond repairs?

I see it as a humanitarian service. Teaching Nigerians to apply reason to every aspect of their lives can make our country a much better place.

RabbaRabbi:
Nairaland atheist are fake ass.

They claim the is no God, but live all their lives abusing who they think is not real...

it's only on nairaland that I have seen the **** atheist talking about God more than the christians

shame on nairaland atheist. Y'all are just confused.

If you claim there is no God, then why waste much of your time talking about Him

Come hia and tell me.

Leave everything to God.
You can't fight for Him nor win HIS battles

Nope. You rather see it as a means of driving traffic in your site.
There are many religious countries that have developed far ahead of us. They didnt need atheism to develop.

RabbaRabbi:


bro, hell is real. Your unbelief wouldn't reduce it's grip on sinners an inch. Get that, forsake foolishness and follow Jesus.



tell him bro.

Prove it Where is Ur Evidence??

I don't think nairaland atheists are deliberately attacking religious folks as you've claimed.I think it is those religious folks especially the christians that always find it difficult to mind their own business whenever atheists make any promulgation against god (s).You do not need to insult anybody or ask that kind of provocative question.Let God fight for himself.

The God of North Korea is their Dear Leader, who is praised for every good thing that happens in the country, but is not blamed for any of the many bad things happening as a result of his insane dictatorship. Sounds familiar?

Such countries probably got developed in spite of religion and not because of it. Can you name some of them?

You seem to feel that anyone who publicly expresses disagreement with your beliefs is attacking you. By this measure everything Christians say is an attack on atheists and we should be offended by them.

I thot by ur explanation, atheists should only be mentioning only "God".
U r not sticking to ur claim.
U claimed Christians were always defending God and I pointed u to a thread where an attack was made.

Simpu

DoctorAlien:


Do you know that you have no proof that GOD does not exist?

Atheists are hypocrites. I expect to hear "I don't know if GOD exists" and not "GOD does not exist."

Before you reply me, chew and digest this apt, albeit not perfect definition(can GOD be defined?) of GOD.

"GOD is the Creator and Sustainer of, and not a part of the Universe."

you are the one said that God exists. The onus of proof is on you brother. If i tell you that my phone can dance, what's the most likely thing for you to do?

North korea is not an atheist state. They worship their supreme leader. That you do not have a name to their kind of religion doesn't for a minute make it atheist.

The bolded = Autotheism
The leader of North Korea is an autotheist and every citizen must basically worship him, or die. It's not an atheist state, but autotheist. I've corrected him so many times but its a cute catchphrase for him to continue repeating 'atheist state'. Most communist states that turned out badly happened after their leaders started developing autotheistic tendencies - exactly what Karl Marx and Lenin were against. China is an example of an atheist state that is thriving while still being communist.

North Korea's Kim is clearly an atheist but due to megalomania , he subjects his countrymen to autotheism . Makes sense ?

1 . North Korea is officially an atheist state and it makes it impossible for religion to thrive - it abolished religion and imposed atheism .

2. North Korea practiced communism from 1948-2014 . communism is a conflation of Marxism and Leninism . Now Lenin , an atheist and political theorist was highly critical of religion, saying in his book Religion

Atheism is a natural and inseparable part of Marxism, of the theory and practice of scientific socialism

This makes atheism a prerequisite for communism and the abolition of religion in a communist country inevitable .

3. North Korea tortures religious people and make them face ignominies because of their belief . They even kill the few religious people in their country . North Korea's president capriciously executes people too .

4. North Korea's leader , kim Jong-un , became president 2011 prior to the supposed end of communism in the state. This explicitly makes him an atheist - he has to be one in order to rule a communist country .

5. If kim Jong un were religious he would have abolished stringent laws against religion . But no , he is a wicked atheist .

You mean we can't go a day without badly destroying your illusion.

Well we don't waste time discussing God rather, we invest our time and knowledge to teach people like you that there is 'LIE' in the middle of 'BELIEF' and we also want you guys to connect the ducts and find it out yourself otherwise Africa as a continent would remain backward.

Foolish talk, it's because of religion that Africa is backward. The places you're considering as forward or progressive society, they don't have religion? How many religion does America have? How many Muslims, Christians, other religions? Don't they even have more religion than Nigeria - You should look for another argument, this one doesn't hold water.

For your information, the foundation of most progressive societies is Christianity, go check America's history, and all you forming atheism and advanced knowledge might still be naked in the bush hunting for antelopes if the christian missionaries did not bring their education.
