RELIGION IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME AND I AM NOT ATHEIST - FACEBOOK FOUNDER, MARK ZUCKERBERG DECLARES

I stalk Mark Zuckerberg on Facebook since he usually replies comments himself. Today, he was wishing people Merry Christmas, and people started asking him various personal questions. Below are some of the top questions and the answers he gave.

Q: But why Facebook doesn't notify that it's Jesus birthday today??
MZ: You aren't friends with Jesus on Facebook?

Q: But aren't you atheist?
MZ: No. I was raised jewish and then I went through a period where I questioned things, but now I believe religion is very important.

Everyone has a religion. You either worship God or your desire.
You either allow your creator,God to dictate your affairs or your desire to guide you.

This is from Islamic perspective.

the context in which he used religion is a belief in a supreme being which is clearly not within the confines of atheism. I also like the fact that he gave a direct "NO" as an answer when asked about atheism. He was a religious rationalist, but NEVER an atheist.

Mark Zukerberg has officially rejected atheism (though calling him an atheist is a misnomer ) .

; He says he believes religion is important ; which of course it is to his patrons , who patronises his platform; and as such he is suppose to wish them well as they mark their event. .

I'm Christian; but to be true with us, religion has a way of dimming ones mind and make u very bleak and dismal in reasoning; it doesn't help u delve into that pool of inquisition, to find answers to the unknown; reason why most inventors whose ideas have changed mankind are atheist ; and Africa which is very religion have always lived in mediocrity and have never invented anything to help humanity...

Lmao !!!!

According to him , he went through a period[TRANSITION) where he questioned things

That means the guy was never an atheist , he was a religious skeptic or a deist . Calling him an atheist is a misnomer . I think Mark Zuckerberg was a deist who has now rejected deism not atheism .

Mark Zukerberg is now officially a theist .

there are millions of muslims on Facebook, he doesn't wish them barka de salah with his personal account during islamic holidays, the argument about christians using his platform as the reason for his post doesn't really hold water. I have been following him for a while and I can tell you that he isn't a kind of person that says things on his personal account just to please people. He'll rather not comment on things that are too sensitive for him.

You are not a Christian and most inventors were never atheists . This a lie from a pit of Hell

Most inventors were Christians and deists . Even the founders of Modern Science where Christians and Muslims . Albert Einstein , Max Planck , , Blaise Pachal Mark Twain , Wright Brothers , Plato , Aristotle , Socrates , Leonardo da Vinci( a PolyMath ) ,Thomas Paine , Thomas Edison , Isaac Newton , Rene Descartes , Copernicus , Max Born(founder of Quantum mechanics ) Charles Babbage (father of computers )etc the greatest of all greats acknowledged the existence of God

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Christians_in_science_and_technology

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_deists


The owners of Yahoo , SnapChat , Google , Facebook ( cool ) , Microsoft , Twitter , Ford Motor Company and so so so many more believe in God

While atheists made picayune achievements

I dont think that was made clear.

1. He was explicit about his rejection of Atheism and Agnosticism ..."I went though a period where I questioned things"

2. He was explicit about his religious skepticism

3. He accepts Religion as important .

If he were a deist , he would never have accepted religion because Deism clearly rejects religion . We are left with only theism .

It's obvious Mark thought questioning religious beliefs makes one an atheist (which is wrong anyway) . From Mark's point of view ,embracing religion now is akin to acknowledging God's existence .

Yes

If he were a deist , he would never have accepted religion because Deism clearly rejects religion . We are left with only theism .
Rejecting religion in the philosophical sense, yes
But deist dont reject religion in the sense you are portraying, lets use Thomas Jefferson as an example, he was most likely a deist but had no issues with the moral teachings of Christianity, just like Sir DeepSight here on NL.
So acknowledging religion does not really say anything definite.
However, he could be a theist, but his statement does not make that clear.

It's obvious Mark thought questioning religious beliefs makes one an atheist .
How do you know this?
From Mark's point of view ,embracing religion now is akin to acknowledging God's existence .
Like, deism, pantheism, and so on.
