Simonrom:
gods are made and controlled by a set of people to control a deluded set of people.

KingEbukasBlog:


Communist countries have no gods or religion yet they brainwash , control people and coerce them to do things against their will or else get tortured or face abhorrent death .

When will you people ever learn to stop making senseless statements like this ?

Simonrom:



Be sensible enough to get a little sense from what I said.

Of course you are right about some countries without gods yet... That's their own way of controlling their people. Other people's way is to create some gods and make people believe them.

Boss, learn to read and understand. Thanks

I just finished watching a video clip of boko haram slaughtering the necks of some individuals they captured, its really painful watching the neck of my fellow human beings been cut as if they are cows. *seriously painful*
.
Now here's my question,
Since "we" Africans got gods like Amadioha, Sango and the other likes of them..
why can't these gods do something to stop this wicked Islamic sect of people??
Am also thinking, aren't foreign religions the causes of all these predicaments, especially Islam.
.
Well, what are your thoughts??

What's the point of getting angry when your post is clearly incongruous with the topic ? People are controlled and manipulated with or without gods so why do you people keep repeating the same nonsense ? Humans are naturally gullible and docile and that's the point I'm trying to make .

You are the one who needed to read and understand .

How are you doing bro ?

Simonrom:


If you'd read carefully behind the post, you would have known that I was trying to answer the subject question in an indirect way. Just trying to depict the fact that those acclaimed gods are powerless (contrary to what we are meant to believe) and can't help situations like Boko Haram and the likes.

You are absolutely right about this. Religion is not the cause of all the world's problems, its eradication should not stop period from coming up with toxic ideologies. The reason religion is unique is due to its lack of reality checks.

Let's take a look at communism. Where - simply put - people are led to believe that everyone's life would be better if they let the government control everything, the obvious reality check would be to gauge the well-being of the average citizen. Slowly but surely people's support would be affected by the facts on ground. In fact, we can see that support for communism slowly waned over time leaving it mostly dead today.

Religion does not have that, that is why Muslims who lived 1000 years ago partook in religious wars with the promise of 72 virgins still have spiritual successors today who believe the same thing. Nobody can come back from the dead to tell us that there aren't actually 72 virgins waiting for us when we die. Meaning that some Muslims today will still fall for the same trick, which we see all the time these days.

Anyone who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.

and to buttress your points further

ask any (or most) atheist what they think about the bad things in communism, bad things some atheists have done etc and you can be assured they'll quickly bash those parts and people, but a religious person asked about the killings ordered by their version of god in their holy books would go on hermeneutics trying to rationalise those things and defending them as "good"

a Muslim regards killings of Mohamed as okay, regards his pedophilic acts as okay and other atrocities, they'll even go ahead a pull some "context" explanations about why its good for him to have done that

a Christian does the same when shown verses in their holy book about such things too


this is another reason religion is worse for control

if there's any ideology worse than communism, its theocracy IMHO

Hati13:
Because there is no such thing as God. Accept the fact and move on.

There are no such things as God/gods/Satan/Angels/heaven/hell/afterlife/luck/miracle/written destiny

Believe in reason/science

I've seen also a throat slicing slaughtere by Boko Haram. I don't know if it's the same like you watched or not, but it was definitely horrible.

In 2015, ISIS had beheaded and shot Ethiopians(30 in total) in Libya coast. It was sick to watch it; especially as an Ethiopian.

What does living on Earth and afterlife had to do with each other?

You were nothing before you were born, now you are something and you will be nothing for eternal after you died. Simple
