4everGod:



Yes I am playing my part and have helped more than 10 people which is more than I can say for any of you

So he could have reasons why he couldnt do anything physically to help another yet he has no reason why he shouldnt blame anyone when he has not been a solution himself?

Your intelligence is below my expectation today. Be truthful and stop defending falsehood.

He cannot help but can blame. How convenient.

like your expectation about me means jerk sheet

like I said, he NEVER claimed to be omniscient omnipotent and omnipresent

I'm very sure he'll do a lot if he were but he's only human

oh! you've helped 10 people, how awesome, why then haven't you helped 100,000,000 people?

I'm sure you haven't because you have YOUR LIMITATIONS

there are people helping thousands, millions etc

there's only so much you can do because you're not "Omnipotent" which you claim your imaginary Skydaddy is

that's the point of the thread but it seems it flew over your head and you're shouting about helping 10 people

You my Friend Are a Hypocrite


Who is a hypocrite? A pretender is a hypocrite

I see the suffering of others and try to be an actual physical solution....

You see the suffering of people and instead of being a physical solution you resort to blaming everyone yet do nothing


You are the HYPOCRITE.

God is not man. Death doesnot mean to you what it means to God.

Those people who "suffer and died" may be in heaven free of death and suffering while you remain the advocate of the dead against God - the creator of life itself.

You said God permits wickedness.

How do you know what death means to a God you've never met.

Anyway you dont know that these people went to heaven (if there is one). Essentially what you're saying is that all suffering happens because God allows it (why not just stop them from being born rather than allowing them be born only to suffer). And at the end of it all some of these people will go to heaven and some to hell (another supposed design of God) to continue to suffer.

Nairaland is A public forum and the Religion section people do visit and so they learn one or two from the Arguments it's no news that Nairaland has Helped turned many Atheist... As an Atheist we Understand that God is Not going to come down from heaven to help anybody it's all left to us Humans But do Theist hold that kind of View? the theist actually care more About the Afterlife than they do this life so why try to fix anything?
shocked really? cry cry cry

“If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come! If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire. And if your eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.
Matthew 18:6-9 NIV

Modified: to hopefulLandlord

That's your creator speaking to you. Those are not my words. What a life! No one understands the language of love anymore. Or is it English you don't understand?

You're sounding as if HE told you to choose hell. If I should try understanding your meme, it means you've chosen hell already and you're blaming God or me for your choice. What a life! Come on, you're smarter and far more intelligent than me.

People like u cant get their brain out of their noses for once.
Thats why u keep having problems with "omniscient" and "omnipotent"

U dont know that what u feel God should do as "good" for u may be "evil" to someone else.

You are angry that God doesnt kill rapists but you are watching porn.(people getting raped)

FYI I am not winner01...Since you do not believe God exists why then do you blame Him?

The question should be...WHAT HAVE YOU DONE IN ORDER TO REPLACE GOD WITH YOUR OWN VERSION OF HELP AND SOLUTION ?

Why blame He who is non existent to you? Shouldnt you be blaming the existent which is you? YOU BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND NOT GOD SO ISNT IT RIGHT TO SAY YOU ARE THE PROBLEM AND NOT GOD?

Do you Love others as you Love yourself? Do you love the HIV infested or the Cancer ridden or the Sore infested as you love yourself? Have you paid someones hospital bills before? Have you taken a poor persn shoppibg before? Have you attempted to make anothers life as comfortable as yours before? Have you fed someone with what you could eat or with less before?

my brother, God will continue to bless you










they keep saying religion is the problem of this nation, yet they have done nothing as an atheist to develop this nationa

LaClicKLaBenDin:


Brother, what do you have against God?
All the instances you listed about starving children and all, have you bothered to tell us what led to such occurrences?
During the Biafran war, did God deprive people of food or water? Did God cause the war? Have you ever woken up to hear that plants have stopped growing, that rain suddenly stopped falling or that people just died in any part of the world for no reason? That's God being consistent in sustaining humans, but we as humans inflict these miseries you just listed on our selves, through our wickedness and selfishness. Tell me, was it God that starved the Biafran children or was it the Nigerian Army? Was there shortage of food? Most of all the instances you mentioned are classic examples of man's inhumanity to his fellow man!

Why blame it on God?

I don't know why you're bent on attacking God and those who believe in him...but I have to tell you that you're threading on a dangerous path! You can't fight against the almighty God, never!

I don't see you as an atheist, Lennycool, I see you as someone who is consciously doing the bidding of the devil; to turn people away from God.

I'm sure you're well read, go and read about the end of people who mocked God and fought against him throughout history....

I honestly pity you, I sincerely do, but I'm sure you'd never understand why.

grin grin grin abeg wait make I laugh well grin grin
Me working with the devil I don't believe exist, how you fail. We are on our own my brother and no supernatural force will help or destroy us. We hold the key to happiness and sorrow. Stop waiting for God to do good and stop blaming the devil for bad.
