Seun:
On facebook, in reply to his Christmas and Hanukkah greeting, someone asked Mark Zuckerberg, "but aren't you atheist?" He replied, "No. I was raised Jewish and then I went through a period where I questioned things, but now I believe religion is very important."

This is unfortunate. If not for the explicit "no", I would have said that he was dodging the question, but he said it. He threw atheism under the bus. He has made it very clear to everybody that he doesn't identify as an atheist and doesn't want to be considered as an atheist. Bless him. This doesn't mean he's not an atheist, of course; an atheist is simply someone who doesn't hold a belief in the existence of any God.

I don't believe for one second that Mark believes in the existence of the Jewish God. The one who forbade Jews from eating pork instead of teaching them how to cook it properly. Who created foreskins to protect the sensitive tips of male organs, but then ordered the Jews to cut them off their newborn babies. Who permitted Jews to enslave foreigners and treat them as property, even though he created all people. Who made women menstruate but then declared that a menstruating woman is unclean, and anyone who touches her - even her husband - is also unclean. Who banished children of single parents and their descendants from entering his temple for 400 years (the 10th generation).

I don't believe that Mark believes in that God. And since he hasn't talked about any other God, I continue to believe that he is an atheist. He may choose to call himself an agnostic, a cultural Jew, or whatever helps Facebook and his family, but that doesn't mean he's not an atheist.

QUESTION: ARE YOU AN ATHEIST

MZ: NO

What part of No is a mystery to you? Is it that it was spoken in English?

NO means NO or does NO sound like MAYBE or PERHAPS or HOPEFULLY or I DON'T KNOW to you? He said NO NO NO.

See you trying to grow a second brain in an attempt to analyze his NO. Are you his PRO?

Of course, acceptance is the last stage....

Lennycool:

Guy just imagine if a well known atheist like seun was asked if he were an atheist and he said "NO"
It would be pretty surprising now wouldn't it.
That's why I said we should let mark zuckerberg reveal more before we start jumping around.
If he's no longer an atheist. Its fine
But how would you feel after all this you gyrations and he reveals he still is?
Give the truth time

4evergod3:


And you think you just made sense right? kikikikikikikiki

Come and smoke weed for eternity na

Mujaheeeden:
Mark said he is no atheist and some people are telling us that he is wrong because he didn't explain it very well.



Seun, my mum said she is not on Nairaland so do you have to bring in any logic through tha back door to make him one because she views naij.com page?


Seun, kindly let Mark be and respect his wish just like We respected yours.


Thank you

Person say he nor be atheist, seun wan force am.

If you like ban me na you sabi..

4evergod3:


See him typing before thinking as well. "MOST" of which pastors are atheists? The truth is that 90% of atheists are believers in God but just wish to deny his existence in order to further their lousy lifestyles.

Oh such glorious heartache Mark gave you guys. Now na laugh and cry una dey do.

Deicide:

Is mark not Going to Hell?

ireneony:
I hope one Day seun will finally realised that there is God. I think he is going through same phase like Mark zuckerberg.

JhyMedex:

Ur comments clearly indicate u nt a very intelligent fella...
Merry Xmas

Mark Zuckerberg was never an atheist to start with. He was a Religious skeptic and that does not translate to atheism. IF I ASK YOU HEY LENNYCOOL DO YOU SMOKE WEED AND YOU ANSWER ...NO what does that mean?

If you say NO but i smoke cigarette how does that negate the fact that you just answered NO to smoking weed? Is weed Cigarette?

Life is interesting when you are watching it in 3D. I bless nature I'm partaking in the comedy of life as a human being. Now Christianity seem more of what you profess and not what you are. I am still a true Christian to some people because I sing Christian songs and mention God, but they didn't try to find out the God I mention. Well... to very few of them, I declare to them myself that OUR GOD IS THE FATHER OF YAHWEH, ALLAH AND ALL OTHER little little gods who are causing religious panic here and there.




No peace surpasses discovering GOD ALMIGHTY IN YOU, SEPARATE FROM THE BOUNDS OF RELIGION.

As for the person behind Mark Zuckerberg's facebook username, the question posed to him was sudden and confrontational, so he had to type something fast at that moment. Well... Zuckerberg doesn't need to be an atheist. He could be a theist, as long as he perceives God in the day to day affair of the universe. And perceiving GOD by humans has always being from time immemorial. BUT ASCRIBING THE ATTRIBUTES OF GOD ALMIGHTY TO DEVILS(YAHWEH AND ALLAH) IS THE DANGEROUS THING HERE.

Lmao there should be a new book written right about now called THE ATHEIST ZIG ZAGGING. See them giving excuses for Mark Zucky like they are his PRO when the man answered his own questions by himself. They are all trying to analyze a two letter word "NO". How can one analyze NO again pls.

what kind of delussion is this?

Deicide:

Mark was an Atheist it was even on his Facebook profile and even on the wall street....that was the reference Wikipedia used to conclude that Mark was Atheist...

Marko Zucky has dumped your sorry ass. Atheism is for retards. He clearly does not want to be seen or known as one.

notjonbellion:
I wonder why this is a big deal
Nigerian Recession is really making room for stupidity
Any athiest that is an atheist because mark zuckerberg became one is simply commiting appeal to authority logical fallacy which ironically most Christians are guilty of when they talk about 15th century scientists that believed in god so god must exist and they are still doing now
"mark zuckerberg isn't an atheist so atheism is illogical"
Christians: Shooting themselves in the foot since the beginning of time
