Godlessness has more to do with religious folks than religious folks these days. Infact they believe their religion gave them freedom from the consequences of their actions.

Funny guy. The fact that you'd scream "Jesus" like your life depends on it in a life threatening situation doesn't mean it's like that for everyone. An atheist won't even bother saying that name to be saved from their misery. Looking up to imaginary people for help is that last thing that'll ever come to my mind when I know those things don't work. I'd rather call Santa Claus instead.

dadabashua1:
I'm a Christian but I have to agree with you to some level,at least they don't kill in the name of religion, they pose no threat to anyone's life or way of life,so I won't judge them either.

Hunger is causing it. When you are hungry and frustrated you become angry at everyone and everything. You curse your parents , you curse your debtors and those who you are owing money too. You curse your lineage and country and finally your curse your creator and suddenly stop believing in anything due to a rumbling empty stomach

All these so called atheists in Nigeria are hungry ,broke people who have tried to borrow money from everywhere no one helped them. They prayed countless times for help and none came,They converted from Christianity to Islam and back n forth looking for money to rent a one room to sleep in.

Finally one guy is claims to be an atheist gave them 2k to eat which looks like 1 billion to them and immediately they join and start ranting that do called Christians and Muslims and evil ... All because of 2k

DejiZoe:
The main reason why atheism is fast growing is because people want to live their promiscuous and sinful lives guilt free. The concept of God and sin bothers their sinful hearts. Rather than submit to God and receive His salvation, they submit to their lusts. I don't bother arguing with atheists, have only met one though, in the end we will know.

However, deep deep down, they have a witness in their heart that there is God.

Remman:
Hehehe! The people you're thinking are atheists will shout Jesus more than you if they're in a car that's about to crash... There's nothing like that in Nigeria! I had a friend who stopped believing in the existence of God because his father died and he dropped out of school. But one day, a sickness was about to take his life and it was in church that he got his healing after hospital failed him. If he was truly a geniune atheist, he wouldn't have gone to any church but rather die in the sickness but today he's a pastor. This country is filled with fake atheists. Trust me, they're all christians!

biotechshola:
Do you become an atheist because you think religion is a scam, irrational or you're simply lazy to commit yourself to any religious demands?

Namnam:
The atheists of Nigeria are 900 thousand people currently and growing especially as more Nigerians move to the cities and as public security starts cracking down more and more on jihadism and fundamentalist Islam as time passes means Nigeria is gonna become increasingly secular as time passes. Thoughts on this trend?

Remman:
another grave lie

Newton85:
Your creator that was created? Lol, what a very confused religion!

musicwriter:

Let me say that atheism is a western word, coming out of European heathens. It's not African. In African tradition, there's no word for atheist or atheism because our ancestors understood that man/woman cannot be separated from the God force/spirit.

All you have to do to understand the intimacy of our ancestors and the God force is check the wording of our names. In ancient time, even our names were partly God. Example in Igbo:-

CHIdi
CHIka
CHIgozie
CHIbuzo
CHInenye
OnyebuCHI
ete.

Example in Yoruba:-

OLUWAseun
OLUWAfumi
etc.

You can pick any African tribe you want and check the names and it'll be clear to you that nothing happened without God as long as our ancestors were concerned.

For an African to call himself/herself an atheist, note that you're only being an atheist in rejection of the European or Arab gods, and that's a good thing. I, myself don't believe in the bible or Koran god anymore but I am not an atheist. I know I am god himself and don't need a God. You can NEVER be an atheist as an African because Africans are God by default. We Africans created God- literally. I think I'll blog about this and talk about it in full one of these days.

Africans are Gods!!

Hungry atheist in need of food

cooooooks:
Pretty sure Tai Solarin was atheist, or at least non Christian/Muslim.

Ammishaddai:
Oga, you failed to understand that the average Nigerian(whether Muslim or Christian)is religious not because of hypocrisy, but because the foundation of his faith is established on the existence and manifestations of the power of gods in the form of idols. And whether you choose to acknowledge it or not isn't a matter we ought to dispute because each and every person has his own twisted interpretation of what is true .

Minemrys:

Baba you don go out of point. No one is talking about religion in its entirety but the average Nigerian being religious. They aren't. Only few are. And just cause they dress the part doesn't mean they act the part

Adakintroy:


I don tell you ask yourself in all honesty and this is not an insult. Do your father or mother believe in God. Then start your fight from your household. Cus it mean they too are delusional. Charity begins at home at least

Namnam:

Our atheist community has only existed since 2014 and it went from 1 to 900k in less than a decade

Semaj77:



You got your "facts" online and he got his online as well , how do you know which one is true

TAGM:
Better count 1sharon, lordreed and crystyano out of this numbers. God is on their matter already.

Proverbs 14 1-2

1 The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

2 The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.


John 14:6

6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

naptu2:


You've just reminded me of Obadiah777.

Ishilove:

Was the perennial corruption in the system caused by religion?

FlipModeSquade:
So because my father was the Pope?

I should not question the veracity of religion?

I should swallow every delusional crap I heard?

That's why I said you are all demented..

You can't think for yourself?

Because you were fed bullshit?

You should swallow it without any question?

Adakintroy:



So now we can agree your father fed you bullshit and he was demented.

So have you ever question him about his madness.

wirinet:

Absolutely yes! Religion especially Christianity rationalises corruption by promoting acquisition of unexplained wealth without hard work or merit. The justify corruption by public officials, 419 by yahoo boys and other crimes that produces instant wealth. All in the name of prosperity. I have not seen pastors preach against or condemn the 419 epidemic affecting our youths.

Lordmajor31:


People are realizing religion is all a lie sold to us and we are still paying dearly for it in Africa, Those that gave us religion have stopped believing in there lies but we in Africa keep dwelling in it. Religion is just a tool to control the human mind. The fear of eternal condemnation is why some people go to church but the real truth is all these were just sold to us to control our minds. In Nigeria on every street you go there is an average of 3 different churches and at least a mosque but yet the country is still the worst place on earth currently, what does that tell you?
Yes I believe in the statistics because I am one of the people who doesn’t believe God exist, because if that dude does exist! Nigeria will not be this messed up.
