There is a big misconception amongst many Africans that atheists believe in the devil. Wrong ! We reject all claims of the supernatural. I know of a parent who told her daughter to stop seeing me because as an atheist l would 'convert' her to the dark world of Satanism.

There are atheists on this forum who have stated clearly that they believe in juju.

I don't hold that misconception, however, I do believe that atheists are being misled by the Devil. That's different.

Uyi Iredia: I don't hold that misconception, however, I do believe that atheists are being misled by the Devil. That's different.

64% of Japanase clearly say that they dont believe in God. Are they a devil-led country? Does the devil lead Japan?


Please, watch this video and learn the double standards christians use for atheists;

Enigma: There are atheists on this forum who have stated clearly that they believe in juju.

That is both contradictory and paradoxically impossible.

Name such "atheists", please.

Then they aren't really atheists. The very definition of atheist means we reject all claims about the supernatural. Last time l checked juju is supernatural.

Oh yes, they are atheists alright; self-avowed atheists who constantly define themselves as such and constantly rail against religion and its "illogic".

@atheist I have this Quesrion for you guys.
Is atheism the non believe in God/supernatural or its non existent or both? My understanding is that it is believe in no gods/ God but someone correct me if I'm wrong because you hear different versions of definitions from atheist

Atheism is the disbelief in God. There is no evidence of God.


If there was evidence of the supernatural, then therefore God is a strong possibility. By deduction, an atheist doesnt believe in the supernatural as well.

Railing against organized religion doesn't make one an atheist. Deep sight is not an atheist, but then again he is not a big fan of organized religion.

^^^ What about constant self-avowal, self description and self definition as an atheist?

ok that's what I thought it was. Now my question.. Ok do you agree that disbelief in something does not make that something nonexistent in the bigger scheme of things?

I understand that to believe in something you need faith and to have faith is to trust. Now is there a disbelief because you guys don't trust God/ supernatural or for the mere fact that there is no evidence

disbelief is not = belief.


You dont believe in Allah. Does that make christianity the belief in the non-existence of Allah/Thor/Ogun/Sango?

did you understand my question at all? I don't think you did.

What is your last question got to do with my question? Do you realise your agreeing with the point I'm making?

Sorry for the mistake


I dont believe in God because there is no evidence for him (or her).

nyameke: I understand that to believe in something you need faith and to have faith is to trust. Now is there a disbelief because you guys don't trust God/ supernatural or for the mere fact that there is no evidence

For me its a "Disbelief" because there is no evidence for the existence of God

lol pas de probleme Mon frere..
Ok so there is no evidence as in what? Physical? And what and how do you perceive God to be.

Jack65:

ok what evidence are you looking for and whats your definition of evidence. Will pose same question I asked logicboy " do you agree that disbelief in something does not necessarily make that something nonexistent ?

nyameke: lol pas de probleme Mon frere..

Lol....got banned again.


Anyways,there is no physical evidence for God or god.

Cheers01:

Anyways,there is no physical evidence for God or god.

what did you do? Back to my question though,how and what do you perceive him to be? And how would you want him to manifest to you physically..

Also do you agree that you create your own reality and everything is about beliefs including the creation of your reality ?

nyameke: what did you do? Back to my question though,how and what do you perceive him to be? And how would you want him to manifest to you physically..

Easy.

-God could send angels to people and let us take pictures.
-God could let demons show their faces and let priests cast them back to hell.
-God could come on his chariot and advice some of his religious people

nyameke: ok what evidence are you looking for and whats your definition of evidence. Will pose same question I asked logicboy " do you agree that disbelief in something does not necessarily make that something nonexistent ?

Yes, disbelief does not equate non existence and also belief does not bring into existence either. Atheists believe there is no God in the context of the features ascribed to it by religion and most especially the monotheistic religion. These religion paint a picture of an all-knowing, all-powerful, all-present, all-perfect and all-benevolent being who occupies somewhere in the sky. It is believed to have created all things but situations constantly get out of hand and it presses reset button to start all over again. There are so many other lofty attributes and features ascribed to this being that NEVER comes to bear when there is need for those attributes to be tested. So many phenomenon that were credited to be the actions of this being have been debunked by scientific simulations hence the popularity of this being plunges as science makes another breakthru.
I am dekung, and am an agnost

dekung: . . . Atheists believe there is no God in the context of the features ascribed to it by religion and most especially the monotheistic religion. . . .

Hence, especially in the form of evangelical atheism, it is a belief system, based on faith and, taking into account other things, a religion.

Disbelief is not = belief.
