(9.)DON'T BELIEVE IN A DEITY. That simple. No prayer, no worship. Consider your stance on the following statements: Evolution exists, and events occur based on coincidence and happenstance. No man in the sky dictates your actions or the events around you. Fate and destiny are myths. Many atheists are still open to possibilities and acknowledge that there is a lot left to discover. For example, there was a time that we couldn't see germs and science had not even conceived of their existence: that did not mean they didn't exist, only that their existence had not yet been discovered and scientifically validated. Rational atheists are open to new scientific discoveries but reject God as an explanation for things they don't understand. |

(11.)ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT THE NATURE OF BEING. With regards to mortality, most religions offer explanations that can be described as metaphysically dualistic: that there exist two distinct spiritual realities, not necessarily conforming to each other's laws of time and space — e.g. Heaven and Earth. Materialism can leave some people feeling empty and spiritually ungrounded. However, atheism does not have to be such a bleak affair! Thinkers such as Heidegger, Kierkegaard, and Sartre pioneered the Existentialism movement in the early 1900s, readdressing the spiritual void left by atheism and capitalist industrial society. They presented a new way of looking at the human being — as an animal that transcends his/her animality through the capacity for free will. Consider that the essence of "being" can lie in making your own choices, respecting the choices of others, and avoiding being consumed by unwanted routines and commitments. Purposeful being can consist of transcending, innovating, and breaking the rules. The essence of your existence is the ability to decide who and what you want to be. You are free! |

OtemAtum:I have been following this circus for some time now. Atum is wrong and you know it. This accusation is criminal in the extreme and a ploy to destroy an innocent man. OtemAtum, what is going on ? I thought you were much more responsible than this. You claim to have a few mentally diseased Atheists for witnesses. A court of law would never accept their testimony. Not after the Scientific findings were released to the world, that Atheism is a mental disease. Explain why two people are criminally accused, two different persons with different monikers, with the same real name Samuel Ekwueme 1) In one post it says; "Samuel Ekwueme the nairaland scammer aka Butterflylion" 2) In another post https://www.nairaland.com/4070514/brain-needs-upgrading-pay-money#60698438 you say, "4evergod is a very good example of this. He built a Lego of trust for himself, gets contacted for jobs, ended up scamming people, absconded nairaland. His real name, according to OtemAtum is samuel Chinedum ekwueme. Nairaland will be compelled to investigate criminal accusations to see whether it is true. |

Re: How To Be An Atheist by vaxx: 7:32am On Sep 28, 2017 |
purem:philosophy and science can be treated separately...... Philosophy do not follow scientific pattern or scientific method of evaluation.... Philosophy precced science... Science use to be called natural philosophy but it branch off making main philosophy an entire independent dicipline on its own... Philosophy is all about intellectual taught and rigorous thinking... Philosopher are not scientists though some scientist may take interest in philosophy... But they are actually two different fied... Science isn't the only tools to use to validate history.... |
Re: How To Be An Atheist by purem(m): 7:47am On Sep 28, 2017 |
vaxx: Am really a learner here o So u're telling me that philosophy is greater than science ? That philosophy and science has nothing in common? That philosophy make all the discoveris? |
Re: How To Be An Atheist by vaxx: 8:01am On Sep 28, 2017 |
purem:you are not getting it... Philosophy preceded science.... The pattern of truth seeking of philosophy and science are entirely difference.... Philo sophia.... Love of wisdom aim to seek truth through critical thinking without any particular standard or method... It can be from idea.,observation and taught experiment while scienctific method is entirely base on empirical or measurable evidence.... Philosophy can be study alongside science..... Philosophy can contribute to science discovery... |
Re: How To Be An Atheist by purem(m): 8:52am On Sep 28, 2017 |
vaxx: Okay now I get it.... There's nothing to argue on anymore.... But what I do know is dat philosopher don't make findings unlike science. |
Re: How To Be An Atheist by vaxx: 9:38am On Sep 28, 2017 |
purem:you don't get it.... Philosopher make finding's but the pattern of findings is different from science... |

vaxx: To close the argument check this out "Ideally, science is one sub-field of philosophy, where "philosophy" covers all human knowledge. The boundaries aren't exactly defined but roughly speaking science is the study of the consistent, observable features of the world." 1 Like |

Ericsunday619:When you give knowledge to the unwise, they get confused and think that you are the confused one. This truth you are rejecting is what millions of people will still come to realize that GOD ALMIGHTY is beyond Yahweh, Allah, Vishnu, Mazda or any other religious god. Peace. |

ScienceWatch: Butterflylion=Samuel Ekwueme=4evergod Know now so that when the truth comes out as usual, you'll say OTEM IS TRUTH. |
Re: How To Be An Atheist by ScienceWatch: 3:03pm On Sep 28, 2017 |
OtemSapien:How can you expect me to agree with OTEM. The evidence is so flimsy, it will be thrown out of court in 5 seconds. Until you produce more facts, I have to throw all this in the rubbish bin. I tracked the beginnings of this story. It was quickly turned by you because you have a personal vendetta against 4evergod. You and other mentally diseased Atheists have an axe to grind with an innocent Butterflylion. now you all accuse him of a crime. I know how mentally fuxcked up these guys are, they have accused me falsely too against their best interest. It is totally irresponsible to accuse two people of the same crime on a public platform.

Re: How To Be An Atheist by OtemSapien: 3:06pm On Sep 28, 2017 |
ScienceWatch: It's not a court stuff. When I first said that Samuel Ekwueme was a scammer far way back six months before he was eventually reported so, no one believed me. Then when it happened to be so, people wonder. You'll also wonder when you eventually know the truth. I don't do court stuff. I do psychospiritual stuff and I don't talk about things I'm not yet 100% sure of. |

vaxx:I thoroughly enjoy your highly informative posts. I wont dream of derailing here, I am pressed for time, allow me to insert this here. Vaxx, this book may interest you. In this book "The Irrational Atheist," The author Vox Day plays the card that the atheists consider their trump—reason—against them in a devastating and highly entertaining manner. With clarity and wit, he presents a wealth of evidence to demolish the arguments put forward by the leading ‘brights’ of the day.” including the prophet of modern Atheism Richard Dawkins. —Chad the Elder, Fraters Libertas |
Re: How To Be An Atheist by ScienceWatch: 3:28pm On Sep 28, 2017 |
OtemSapien:Everyone practicing Psychospiritual stuff know that OTEM has been wrong many times. Thousands of customers have repeatedly testified to the fact that they have not found solutions to their problems. The diagnosis was mostly wrong. Just like many doctors. How can you expect me to agree with OTEM. The evidence is too flimsy 1 Like |

purem:Mmmmm ! Purem you are wise indeed ! I see you have unlocked the secret of the Atheist mind. Your comment reveal your innate wisdom when you said to hopefullandlord, "You know when I was offline I'm asking myself what are we arguing about? NOTHING.'' Right there, the energy you saved will enrich your life, while these Atheist wasters only claim to fame, will be there insults of innocent decent peoples posts on religious sites. If you read Hond's posts you will learn about the cruel hidden agendas of these Atheists. Hond is a self-proclaimed strident Atheist. He gets invited internationally to speak a Atheist meetings. But the difference is that he lives for the dignity of other innocent decent people. He bluntly says, "The rest of Society can get fucxked !" |
Re: How To Be An Atheist by OtemSapien: 4:43pm On Sep 28, 2017 |
ScienceWatch:you have not even ask what psychospirituality I was talking about is all about. Well, here is it. There is definitely a spirit realm, they are there going about their lives same way we here are going about our lives. But here, we bother too much about them, wanting to please them, fearing them, worshipping them while they don't give a fvck about most of us here. The psychology aspect of it is what we can apply to ourselves to heal ourselves when we are sick, wriggle our way through things, make others our followers, etc. The psychology part of life is applied in the hospital for healing, curing, etc. It is also applied by the wise in standing threats, etc. LIFE ON EARTH IS MORE OF "GO TO THE HOSPITAL" OR "MEDITATE TO HEAL YOUR SELF"(psychology) than "GO TO A PASTOR" or "GO TO A SELF-ACCLAIMED SPIRITUALIST TO BE HEALED"(spiritual). More healings take place through meditation and medication than through the false way of religion and spirituality. |

purem:Muslims and Christians must never ever commit the sin of bowing to Atheists demands to "PROVE" the existence of God. God has already proven it to them. Let them prove to themselves that God don't exist !!!! I have never committed this SIN. Who remembers the command, "DO NOT THROW YOUR PEARLS TO THE SWINE?" |
