spacetacular , what are you really deducing about atheists from the definition provided, and how does it relate to your story in the original post? |
Re: Help Needed From Atheist Friends On This Website. by branhampaul: 10:43am On Jul 18, 2017 |
spacetacular:English language is Dynamic, in religious context LACK means disbelief. |

DeSepiero: You all somehow seek TO RELATE something with something in an attempt to quench your curious minds. Look at my response to hopefullandlord. Do you have your own epiphany to share? |
Re: Help Needed From Atheist Friends On This Website. by spacetacular(f): 10:48am On Jul 18, 2017 |
branhampaul: I did not use a Religious dictionary to arrive at a definition. It was a regular dictionary so when you talk about religious dynamism in context then you are wrong. Lack you say means disbelief and disbelief is the inability or refusal to accept that something is true or real. So if you are UNABLE or REFUSE to accept that God or gods are real then SHARE with us how you arrived at this position. It's that simple. Share your epiphany! I am eager to read about it. |

branhampaul: Deism is a type of theism , its a theological position on the nature of God . And deists hate atheism with passion . You can visit their website @ www.deism.com to see for yourself . If there was a deity, then the earth should have been exactly as the bible's "Garden of Eden" was. What?! What concerns the bible with atheists ? What kind of red herring is this ? Not all theists even agree with the bible or see the world that way . Please try again , your response is just outlandish . ofcourse, there are numerous entity, you yourself is an entity. Atheism refutes a deity not entity. That means atheism does not reject the existence of the First Cause , it just denies its deification ? |

spacetacular: I'm not here for whatever big picture you have in your head, I read the OP and I've answered OP, if you want atheists to tell their own personal journey to atheism, then you need to open a separate thread for that, infact there are many such threads already don't make your own thread DOA and tell us how ny definition now relates to Washing blood of a John Doe 4 Likes |

To my atheist friends all I ask is a LITERAL TASTE of what you have got and guard so jealously. You should be jumping at this opportunity to share how you got your epiphany especially since you are proud enough to declare your atheism openly on this website. Shouldn't you also be proud enough to also declare your epiphany? |

spacetacular:u're Ridiculous! so if someone lack a belief in the existence of Ben 10, does that mean Ben 10 is authentic or true. So if you are UNABLE or REFUSE to accept that God or gods are real then SHARE with us how you arrived at this position. It's that simple.The Condition of the World made me an Atheist. 2 Likes |

hopefulLandlord:y Curiosity killed the cat hopefullandlord! I do not seek appeal or a life long piece so if you pride yourself in threads and their length of existence I am not like you. Why are you not eager to share your personal epiphany here. It's my piece and since my intentions are only known to me I am perfectly on track by asking for it to be written here so I can read. Are you not proud of your epiphany? |
Re: Help Needed From Atheist Friends On This Website. by spacetacular(f): 10:59am On Jul 18, 2017 |
NairalandSARS: Have you dropped your epiphany yet? Remember I said I will only work with what you give me and not what I propose. |

NairalandSARS: What do you know as 'First cause' ? |
Re: Help Needed From Atheist Friends On This Website. by spacetacular(f): 11:01am On Jul 18, 2017 |
branhampaul: I do not think you understand what you are saying and what I am saying as well. We have looked at lack and absence and given several definitions of them and you are taking us backward with this misunderstanding you have. Can you share those specific world conditions with us? |
Re: Help Needed From Atheist Friends On This Website. by branhampaul: 11:06am On Jul 18, 2017 |
KingEbukasBlog:I use to be a deist. For me I see both of them as almost the same. I don't believe or accept what a website says, I think for myself. I never said all theist agree with the bible, I just gave an example of how the earth would have been if there was a God. That means atheism does not reject the existence of the First Cause , it just denies its deification ?what do you mean by the phrase First Cause ? 1 Like |

branhampaul: The comment in bold text isn't entirely true about you. You forget that it's the same website definition for your atheism you offered here. Plus you said THERE IS NO REASON TO BELIEVE IN A RELIGIOUS GOD and I want to share in this epiphany you have. |
Re: Help Needed From Atheist Friends On This Website. by spacetacular(f): 11:13am On Jul 18, 2017 |
NairalandSARS: I already stated a clause. I WILL ONLY WORK WITH WHAT YOU GIVE ME AND NOT WHAT I PROPOSE. My epiphany isn't the focus. I am not the one who said "I DO NOT BELIEVE IN God or gods" am I? |
Re: Help Needed From Atheist Friends On This Website. by spacetacular(f): 11:16am On Jul 18, 2017 |
branhampaul: Some see things through rose tinted glasses while others do through thorns. A rose is absolutely beautiful yet has thorns. Despite the thorns people like you still say "AS BEAUTIFUL AS A ROSE." so perspectives differ. Tell me this world condition you are referring to. |

branhampaul: Mister , all deists are theists and theism is the antithesis of atheism . So please there is no similarity between deism and atheism . Stop confusing yourself . I never said all theist agree with the bible, I just gave an example of how the earth would have been if there was a God. You still shoot yourself in the foot because you are admitting that the bible is true . The bible explains why the earth is no longer like that - idyllic , resplendent etc - because it has been corrupted because of sin . So why don't you accept this ? I mean either way your idea of the earth looking resplendent proves the existence of God because according to the bible , the earth was once how you imagine it to be if 'there was a God' . what do you mean by the phrase First Cause ? You claimed that you were a deist yet you dont understand what 'First Cause' means ? Looks like someone lied An atheist who does not know what First Cause means ? Felixomor , is that one an atheist ? 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Help Needed From Atheist Friends On This Website. by spacetacular(f): 11:27am On Jul 18, 2017 |
NairalandSARS: So since you were INTRODUCED that means you received A DIFFERENT INTRODUCTION some time later on in life which Led to your atheism. Could you share that epiphany now? |

NairalandSARS: You were 4 , you could barely read . And to deduce the existence of God by careful observation of nature , logic and reason (natural theology) is a sign of intelligence . Are you insinuating that you are bereft of this ? 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Help Needed From Atheist Friends On This Website. by NairalandSARS: 11:29am On Jul 18, 2017 |
spacetacular: And I am of the opinion that a lack of belief in God or gods is the default state of man, so there will be no epiphany. It is you that REALIZED that a god exist that should share your "epiphany". 8 Likes |
