What It Feels Like Leaving Organized Religion? by HappyPagan: 3:04am On Jun 11, 2023 |
DEEP SADNESS You'd rather be honest than make them happy. They used to be your friends, and pals... now in their eyes, you have fallen for the enemy. Any interaction with you might be dangerous to their faith. They have doubts too, after all. But they'd rather hold on to what they fear. You kinda miss the meetings and organizations, the friendship and support that was always available. This was the toughest for me to deal with. I had to learn to find groups of similar interests (gaming, tech, food). Me best friend is a Christian minister . 2 Likes 1 Share |

If truthfully you've LEFT something i believe you shouldn't be found anywhere close to that thing but here you are always on the religion section of a forum that's full of different sections when you could actually be chatting with others on gaming, tech and food without having anything to do with religionists! |

jmoore: The Bible said it all! In the last days people will be hungry and thirsty for God's word {Amos 8:11} that's why many are found on the religion section of this forum, what really baffles me is how someone with working brains could say he has left religion yet always found in the religion section of a forum that has lots of sections he could be chatting with others like himself! |

MaxInDHouse: You'd find most atheists this forum here. There's no section dedicated to Philosophy... This is the closest we have to it. So you'd see us here, not just for your religion, but for all religions.. Nigerian being so Christian and Muslim, most atheists here will come from such backgrounds.

HappyPagan: Now that you've been strengthened, it is your responsibility to strengthen your brothers. If you kept quiet, then you are evil. If you've been into a form of dark hole before and you've been saved. It is only right for you to help others from falling into it. Discoveries are not meant to be kept to oneself, you should share it with as many as possible. Imagine if Albert Einstein had kept E=MCยฒ to himself. That would be wickedness. The same way these religionists won't allow us rest even early in the morning, at motor parks, at our places of work. You've been charged with the same assignment. As you've been emancipated from evil. May you never return to evil. 3 Likes |

MaxInDHouse: There is no "Non-Religious" section on Nairaland. The religion section is for both the Religious and the Non Religious. Likewise I can't really wrap my head around how many who say they were once drunkards , prostitutes or armed robbers also target their message of salvation to the sect that they've left behind. You see, what's good for Greece is also sauce for Uganda. 1 Like |

Re: What It Feels Like Leaving Organized Religion? by MaxInDHouse(m): 3:23pm On Jun 11, 2023 |
FRANCISTOWN: แปmแป they have a reason calling those who still live debased lives because the God they believe ordered them to speak with others and make disciples {Matthew 28:18-20} so they're hoping to be repaid for what they're doing. Hebrews 11:6 But what reason does atheists have coming to the religious section if not hypothetically returning to what they claim they've left behind? Well let me show you why atheists are always here: The true God foretold a time when humans will feel like something is wrong with what their fellow man believes {Malachi 3:16} some like you will only wish to argue preferring no solution while God's servants will continue to give you a reason to believe in the solution God foretold {Malachi 3:18} of course atheism will outsmart people like you who aren't worshipers of the true God in the first place but before any school of thought we will prove that we are of higher intelligence! Isaiah 54:17 You should have noticed how difficult it is to beat JWs when it comes to power of reasoning because we will calmly show you the truth about faith which you never knew when you were still with the churches of Christendom! |

jmoore: If you lived in the US or remotely stayed up to date with news about the US, I would say yes. Yes they are against Science. Here are some examples of what Right Wing Christians think about Science. Climate Change? Hoax Covid-19? Hoax Vaccines? Cause autism or nutjob conspiracy theory microchip etc You wonder why atheists call Christians idiots because it is mostly Christians peddling this dumb crap about things they dont understand. 3 Likes 1 Share

atheistandproud:If you had a single brain cell, you would have known that Christians were into farming before any atheist was known. Agricultural science is part of science! The opinion of Catholic church is not superior to the bible Low IQ Nigerian atheists! |

jmoore: Christian were into farming before... ๐๐๐๐ Are you really this dumb and uneducated? The agricultural revolution happened thousands of years before the first Christian walked this Earth and was discovered by people. The people who didn't believe in any gods (you know... Atheists). Uneducated literate. Atheism predates most religions not to talk about a baby religion like Christianity. Who burnt scientific books in the middle ages? Who persecuted scientists?

HappyPagan: This sounds more like if you leave a cult or if the judgement of others mattered to you, which kind of makes me wonder if those you left behind were your gods or if on your leaving you were asking them to leave with you. I'm going to a funeral on Tuesday. A very nice member of a church I once went to died and I am going to pay my respects. It's Church of England where atheists and gay people can be priests so I guess it might not be the sort of church you left. I was an atheist before I started going there, and stayed because we were feeding the poor and teaching the local non-indigenes who were mostly Muslims to speak and write English. And yes, some of us did resist the attempts of others to shove belief down their throats in disguise. Feeding the poor was 'Jesus' enough for most of us. Experiences differ, is my point. 3 Likes 1 Share |

atheistandproud: I'm kinda surprised Christians believe Christianity to be the true religion when its infact a plagiarized belief of other stories. Story about Noah? Copied from The Epics of Gilgamesh tale. The story of Jesus Christ? Copied from the Ancient Egyptian story of Horus. Christmas? Copied from the Pagan belief of Saturnalia. Easter? Also a Pagan belief. Hell, Christians didnt come up with the concept of marriage. Marriage doesn't belong to any partiuclar faith but it is originally Pagan as well as exchanging of rings. Bible is a fairytale story you would tell a child before bedtime. Its as credible as the Lord of the Rings except the Lords of the Rings is a better fictional book. 3 Likes |
