Offerings of atheism

When clients who are either Christians, Muslims, herbalist, witch doctors and theists generally, sit across my table, and i begin to expose to them, how their foolishness and self inflicted delusion, that originate from their religious beliefs, has messed up their health, they can't but admit their utter stupidity.

Religious beliefs delude folks to believe that stroke is caused by Spirit, hypertension can be cured by anointing oil, diabetes can be cured by concoctions, diabetic sore is arrow of the imaginary enemies etc

When i help these folks to realize their stupidity, right in my office, they thank me and show gratitude, for redirecting them out of their hasty path of painful death, to path of rational health management.

That's the good that Humanism does for humanity. Good without God.

The campaign for secularity of states, globally, is liberating people from the oppression, victimization and inequalities, brought about by religious folks.


Am not asking you of your Job description, thank you

You keep exposing your ignorance of God and Religion . Without religion , persons like Enoch , Noah walked with God . They lived morally good lives which were pleasing to God - this was during the antediluvian and pre-Judaism period .

In modern times : rejecting religious beliefs does mean not you have rejected God . Being good without religion does not necessarily mean you are good without God - some people believe morality was ingrained in humans by God , to know what is good and evil through reason and judgement for the betterment of humankind .

You know too little to be pontificating or being dogmatic about your opinions . Seriously man , stop embarrassing yourself .

Sir Tim Berners Lee was never an atheist , he only rejected religion in his youth . Rejecting religion =! atheism . Like I earlier said , deists , pantheists , panentheists , pandeists , religious skeptics , agnostics all reject religion .

He is now a member of the UU - a theologically diverse religion comprising of all kinds of people with or without religious background helping people seek spiritual growth . The UU stands for Unitarian Universalism .

We still have religious people who rule the internet - CEOs of Google , Twitter , Apple , eBay , Reddit , Snapchat , Yahoo mail etc . Plus Mark and Alan were formerly religious people

And a quick reminder , atheists have done so little to the world when compared to what religious people have done .

Steve wozniak(apple) is an atheist...Jobs wwas 50/50...

It's now obvious to me, that you are pathologically infirmed of the ability to connect your arguments intelligently.

I think you will have to go study elementary basis of my writings, from my introductory posts on NL.

* I hold the view that God doesn't exist

* religion/God idea is a mental fabrication

* morality didn't originate from religion or God idea

* when i write "God" as against "God idea", i only assume, but not admit its existence in such instance.

Good without God is a reality. Without God idea, humanity will live better in the world.

Nothing, people contribute to the society irrespective of their beliefs. I didn't become an atheist to make the world a better place, I became an atheist because I stopped believing in God.

It's just like asking 'what has not playing football done for the world?' The answer is nothing, it all depends on what you do with your time.

Atheists formulate their beliefs independently, just like other people we just don't involve God in our decisions.

Exactly this.

Atheism is simply not believing in a god. It's not some large club or something. And I don't know why everything thinks every atheist is always angry and bitter , you're complicating something which is quite simple.

I believe in God, sometimes I don’t. I think it’s 50/50 maybe. But ever since I’ve had cancer,
I’ve been thinking about it more, and I find myself believing a bit more, maybe it’s because
I want to believe in an afterlife, that when you die, it doesn’t just all disappear. The wisdom you’ve accumulated, somehow, it lives on.''

Medical Science has diagnosed countless diseases that religious folks ascribed to demonic attacks, as simply pathophysiological case.

Not only did medical science gave a rational basis for diseases, they equally provided curative and effective management modalities, in a cheap and affordable packages.

You don't understand the "religious fundamental beliefs and claims". It's erroneously and ignorantly claimed that there was no incidents of diseases, until Adam and eve, sinned against God.

Therefore, ALL diseases are caused by evil Spirits (haven't you read in your Bible where spirit of fever, epilepsy etc were mentioned?). And diseases will ONLY be cured by prayer of faith.

But prayer, has not cure anything, not even a common malaria fever.

Your view on this doesn't matter, in as much you subscribe to Christian religion.

Your Submission show that, you have not gone far in medical, OR not seen much
If am not right about the above then your sincerity is questionable.

Years Ago in 1996, my uncles wife was in labour room struggling for more than 16 hours in a Popular Hospital at Ilorin, attended to by a popular Doctor, yet she could not deliver the baby.

Then the doctor recommended Operation, only waiting for the husband to come and sign few docs.

THE MIRACLE
My mother who was just came around, who is not even a nurse, when she heard about the operation, went inside the labour room, she held the hand of the lady, and pray not up to a minute, she start groaning, here come the crow, later attended to by Nurses and she delivered safely w/o operation.
What Qualified Doctor could not do for hours, was done in few seconds of prayer. Even Doctor is not happy with my mom but who cares.

I would have tell other testimonial s, i have heard but you will question it authenticity, but this one happen to us by PRAYER.


Back to the question, you are yet to answer the last set of my questions before, going into details

We have Placebo Effect, Adrenaline Rush, positive thinking induction etc in Religion Christianity to be precise, and in one way or the other it helps.

The bold in my quote is what we know its a result of prayer and we do testify of it but you atheist in a bid to deny God decide to attached psychology to it and called it names.
But whether Placebo Effect or Adrenaline Rush, its a result of prayer.
