its very easy to become an atheist...u no more leave by rules or doctrines of morality. its very bad that your husband hid his true nature from you for years. but him telling the kids that bible stories are lies isn't fair. he should feed them with his stories not disproving urs. let them choose. one problem i have with atheist is that they go about disproving christian doctrines instead of establishing theirs. 1 Like 1 Share |

Well, the theist believes in the existence of a self-sustaining, uncreated being - God. The a-theist says impossible. How can one in his intelligence say there is a God. IMHO, the atheist is the one making the assertion. The burden of proof lies on you. The trick has always been to place the burden of proof on the unlearned theist. Why not take initiative and lay down your objective proof. Don't pass the buck. OneManLegion: |

I no longer engage myself in any discussion related to religion. Everyone sees you as a devil the moment you oppose their views. I hope to date if possible get married to an atheist....to save myself from dramatic events in the future 2 Likes |

Great you accept that you are the one countering my statement, more reason you should show proof against my thought of "water in jar". Burden of proof will be on me if you come to me saying "What's your proof of water in the jar?". However, if you say "No, there's no water in the jar, then it's up to you to proof me wrong".

goodguygonebad: LOL, simple logic, how do you prove what you know doesn't exist? who should prove it exist? I don't have money, you claimed i do, okay, show me the money. not that i don't believe in God, but not the way some of you push the God thing. too lame. |

*sighs...well ma'am this is only a phase to really prove what and whom you believe in if you really do. Don't get me wrong,this is not for you to confront your husband or hold any grudge against him,as you have said your husband is really a good man,remember the story of Cornelius?? Smiles. You have a weapon greater than any other "love".... He is your husband,your head and you're not meant to go against him rather intercede greatly for him,love him,respect him,honour him. A woman in Christ solves problems on her knees,ma'am you're not meant to talk to humans about your husband,talk to whom you believe is his maker,you gat to strike a deal with the holy spirit in the place of prayer,pray for him,pray for your kids, stop talking to people about him,you will only get sad the more. Love,respect,honour and submit to him,remember the scriptures said respect even your " unbelieving husbands".... Commit and control his heart in the place of prayer that is where your strength is,and don't do it in a way that will irritate him and will ban you from praying ... Pray for your family and still be a good wife to your husband he is lord over you |

The first bolded. You need objective, undeniable, empirical evidence (and please not theory) that God doesn't exist. @Second bolded, Without having any discussion on the topic with me, you already made your conclusion about me. That is very intelligent of you. freshcvvs: |
Re: Married To An Atheist by jozz(m): 12:37pm On Aug 03, 2016 |
mazaje: well spoken man. The fact is that a lot of persons are developing atheistic ideas and the primary cause is the unreasonable religiosity of modern Christians especially the new generation churches.Imagine someone was suffering a heart attack and what u guys could think of at the moment was prayer instead of instant medical attention. Why won't he think you are all crazy. moreover you and probably those close to you know virtually nothing about God in terms of scriptural knowledge and evidences of his existence,hence the reason he always defeats you.There are more than enough evidences to prove God exists.check out information at www.jw.org. 1 Like |

goodguygonebad: There's no solid evidence of how we came into sentience except those of archaic papysuses and scrolls penned by unlearned, unscientific and superstitious people which, we mustnt forget, is chock-full of contradictions, fantastic stories and outright fallacies. Needless to say, the sayings of this book and its likes can't be accepted by learned folks who have been exposed to the knowledge unraveled by science. On this premise, I can, with confidence, say that it is the theist who claims that such a thing as "A God" exists and upon them will the onus lie to prove the validity of that assertion thereby shifting the burden of proof from the theists to the atheists, no? |
Re: Married To An Atheist by freshcvvs: 1:47pm On Aug 03, 2016 |
goodguygonebad: And you have empirical, undeniable or objective evidence that your idea of a God exist? the "god exist" theory came first, so they should prove it does and not because of some books (theory). Well maybe we haven't had any, but i quoted you because you were of the assertion of an existing God? which other discussion do i need to know that you are a pro-God which i am not against, just against the way you came about it. Telling an atheist to prove there is no God is a funny way of proving that there is. Theist - There is a God Atheist- I don't believe you. Shouldn't the first give reasons why the second should believe and not push the "proving" to the second? you came first with the logic of God so why push it to the person against your assertion? |

@ First bolded ,quickly I will assume you are positing that learning and science jumped into existence in this dispensation. OneManLegion: |
Re: Married To An Atheist by goodguygonebad: 2:17pm On Aug 03, 2016 |
I am a pro God exist. I never at any time mentioned that my proof does come only from the Bible. How I came about it? I thought you made a wrong generalization and I brought it to your attention. How did I (specifically) come about it that you didn't like? I guess you also assumed that I am probably only emotional in my belief? Well, whereas, I am emotional, I am also logical. You just needed to engage me in the discussion. @bolded, Wrong definition atheist ˈeɪθɪɪst/ noun noun: atheist; plural noun: atheists a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods I pushed the burden of proof to the atheist because over time, throughout history, it's being the norm that the burden of proof be placed on the theist by the atheist. I think that should stop. My reason for saying "since you don't accept my proposal of the existence of a God, then you should give me your evidence against". Perhaps, if your argument is strong, objective and undeniable, we could all agree to establish your argument. The theists are still waiting. freshcvvs: |

goodguygonebad: You think that should stop doesn't change what it is. You believe something exist so the onus remains with you to prove that. |

I am not intent on convincing you, I am intent on engaging in an intelligent discuss about the God matter or not and none of you "normal people needing convincing" wants that. Y'all have been asking for a proof. neoapocalypse: |
Re: Married To An Atheist by vikstandon(m): 6:05pm On Aug 03, 2016 |
U guys can quarrel over nothing...an atheist tells u that God doesn't exist; must u contend with him?. He (Atheist) is right cos everything that exist must die (be no more)... in my words there is an expiry date for everything that exist. Am a Christian...GOD IS...GOD doesn't exist GOD IS...that makes him sovereign...He has no beginning and no end...He never dies...So God doesn't exist |

Re: Married To An Atheist by Nobody: 10:56am On Aug 06, 2016 |
uzolexis: Hmmm... I'll advice you to think well if your love for your fiancee is worth sacrificing your love of God for. I'm Catholic just like you and I understand how "love" works. What if after marriage he forbids you and your kids from going to church anymore, what are you going to do? Divorce is not allowed by the Catholic church for any reason especially for a sacramental marriage. Think twice dear. Your husband will promise you heaven so he can marry you but change later on... |
Re: Married To An Atheist by uzolexis(f): 11:23am On Aug 06, 2016 |
Ioannes: I have dated the so called "Catholic religious men"and NONE of them are half as awesome as my fiancee is, none of them make me half as happy as he does and that's what is most important to me. He is not judgemental and does not impose his opinion on me unlike the so-called Christian men, he respects my opinion and decisions and I respect his. For instance I love going to the club cos I really like dancing, but my Christian ex will be like "a Christian should not go to the club blablabla", even forbid me from going to the club thereby restricting me from doing what makes me happy I want to be with someone that respects my opinion and does not judge me and I am 100% sure I am with the right person, so why should religion be a barrier |
Re: Married To An Atheist by Nobody: 11:39am On Aug 06, 2016 |
uzolexis: And I respect that madam. I'm not saying that your fiancee is a monster. Neither am i saying that you shouldnt marry him. All I'm saying is, have you considered all future possibilities? If you have a family problem that you need to consult a spiritual guide for will your husband follow you to the presence of a priest? Maybe you should read the original post on this thread again. But then again, who knows whether God wants to use you to convert him. Eventually whatever it is, it's your decision and I don't want you hurt. Hate seeing women suffer in marriages.

.....It's topics like this that makes one wonder how Atheists are somehow the bad guys. And they also scare the shit out of me about marriage. |
Re: Married To An Atheist by Nobody: 1:28pm On Aug 06, 2016 |
Luckymay: Search for him madam. He exists. Looking at life, the world, the galaxy and saying God doesn't exist is like saying that it's possible for a whirlwind to sweep through a scrap yard and assemble a brand new Porsche car. Nothing happens unless somebody starts it off. A cookie in a glass jar can't simply disappear unless some fingers snitched it. The famous big bang couldn't have occurred(if it is true it occurred) without someone starting it off. That you cannot see him, doesn't mean he isn't there. Scientists cannot see gravity, nobody can, but we believe it's there. The most brilliant human and angelic minds can never ever fully comprehend even to one billionth degree of the Majesty of him who authored life. Some centuries ago, there lived a man, Augustine was his name. He was a brilliant man, very brilliant and he wrestled with studies about who God is and his nature. He kept at it getting frustrated at times. Then one night after an exhausting research, he fell into a deep sleep. He saw himself on a beach. Close to the water he saw a small kid of about 5years old busy fetching water to and fro the beach and pouring it into the hole he had dug in the sand. Augustine approached the kid and asked him what he was up about. To his amusement, the kid told him that he was trying to empty the ocean into that hole he had dug. Augustine laughed and laughed and proceeded to show the kid how futile his efforts were. And the kid looked him in the eye and asked "if this is impossible, how then do you think a created mind can phantom or plumb the depths of God its creator? And the kid disappeared from his presence. Most atheists are so because of either of two main reasons or both. Either they've been through a hard time and they prayed and they didn't get what they wanted from God which made them sarcastic, or, They were brought up in a home that never acknowledged the existence of God and the thought that the pleasures they are enjoying now might be wrong according to that God makes them rather deny him. Either way, evil is real and no one can sit on the fence in the battle that is raging on in the other realm different than our own. (Sorry for the lecture, couldn't help it) |
