Yet you're frequently here in the religion section always talking about Him. How ironic!

We'll definitely talk about it(god) because people who believe in it(god) are always disturbing us. They always make us remember there is that fairy figure. Therefore the less theists we have in the society, the less the disturbance.

There was a time I was in study-cation for about two months. The word "god" didn't even cross my mind once. As an atheist, if I didn't see or hear the word "god". I don't even remember there is a fairy like that

So kindly correct yourself. Stop lying that you're busy and have no time to spend on top of His matter despite calling Him an imaginary figure. You're very busy here alway talking about Him so you must have a lot of time to spend in that regard

Some wouldn't but most see him as the greatest as I said. He is not just seen as the greatest scientist of all time but one of the greatest and most influential humans to ever lived, as a result of his influential works. So this is not just about science. His efforts transcends the science world. He would have also been the first on your list had he been an atheist, but then your good judgments have proven to be totally beclouded by personal sentiments, as your brainless idea that to be a Christian one has to do away with one's brain.

The term "greatest" is subjective. Everyone to their opinion. But I'd choose their father Francis Bacon then Darwin, Einstein, Tesla, Faraday, Richard, curie, Aristotle, Galileo.
Most of the fundamental theories of Newton were flawed by Einstein.

Why many people do not regard Einstein was because he dropped the idea of the anthropomorphic God and believed in a God of Spinoza ( it really pained those clergies that time. Come see tears).

Many scientists know that Newton flopped with some of his theories.
But he has backings , thanks to his faith.

Newton was extremely intelligent and great, And he's no doubt one of the finest. But he is never the greatest.
What are you even saying? There were too many great scientists and it would be difficult to put the crown on a person.
Personally I love Darwin in a special kind of way. If not for Darwin, many people for still believe say na one fairy create them.

I have a lot of time to attack what's attacking me.
God as a character has never disturbed me so, I don't have his time.
God isn't active on NL(show me it's moniker)
But the people who believe in it are active here, they disturb me and I disturb them too.

As you share the 'testimonies', please kindly bring evidence. We arent as gullible as you folks

You speak as if the burden of proof rests on me.
If you have a reason to believe, then you go to a good church where there are lots of evidences of God's goodness and even judgment, where people share their testimonies to as many who already believe or "desire" to believe.
Some of us have called believers more unprintable names than you but at the appointed time, by God's Grace and mercy, we now believe.
Not many receive this grace so you better start having a rethink. The earlier, the better for you and your family.

I told you to update yourself, didn't I? Stop living in the past.

I am in touch with Michelle offline, so I'd think I'm a lot more update than anything you post from her here.

atheistconverta:
The number of NL atheists turned Christians seemed to be rising on a regular, so this thread is specially devoted to them to share their testimonies and experiences to inspire others, including those atheists who may be contemplating leaving atheism for Christianity but need some encouragement.

I will be mentioning monikers of some I can remember now but would be updating them subsequently when more come up, so if you know any NL atheist that converted to Christianity, kindly mention their monikers so they could be added to the list.

Also you can share the post of their testimonies or links to them here just incase they are not available at the moment.

I will be sharing the ones I could lay my hands on later.

Former NL atheists turned Christians:

1. Myer/Pressplay411
2. Jakanda1
3. Michellekabod1
4. Drjones109
5. GXCHANGE
6. Lonestar124
7. NSNO

If God could do it for these listed above, He could do it for you too, because what God cannot do does not exist! In Jesus name!

No 1: Wasn't an atheist. Just because you started drinking, smoking and becoming depressed does not mean you're an atheist. Educate yourself.

No 2: The moniker claims to have been an atheist. No proof of such. Anyone can claim anything here. They come here with some cooked up story about leaving atheism when they've been Christian their whole life

No 3: The account has been disabled and nothing to show he/she was an atheist except for a thread the person made to announce their "conversion". Probably one of those who'll cling to anything for help when life gets rough.

No 4: This account was registered March last year and only claims to have converted. Most posts from this account has nothing to do with religion.

No 5: This account registered on December 14 2018, and was last seen on December 14 2018. Made a conversion thread, commented on it 8 times and left. 😂 Probably one of Jesusjnr's alternate accounts.

No 6: This one have always been a Christian since their registration on Nairaland. It's a faceless forum, anyone can claim anything here.

No 7: This person already said he wasn't an atheist.

I was expecting to see conversion stories from popular or outspoken atheist here not random accounts with little or nothing to show for it.
I'm sure Jesusjnr2020 is the one who created this thread with one of his many monikers. Jesusjnr2020 you've been on a mission to end Atheism on Nairaland since 2019 and this is all you could come up with? Just 7 random and unknown people? 😂
The embarrassment you faced back then with the miracle stunt you tried to pull wasn't enough? 😂😂


Nice try though.

Lol.
How should the burden of proof be on me when you're the one presenting the 'facts'? This is serious
Someone tells me, "Oh, my car can fly".
And I say "Prove it"
And he replies "Prove to me my car can't fly"
Dafuq am I to prove it when you're the one trying to make me believe it.
Same way u tell us atheists, "God exists"
We reply "Show us evidence he exists"
And u go "Show us evidence he doesn't exist"
Lol 😆

atheistconverta:
If you don't believe Jesus ever lived, it's simply because you don't want to because there are undeniable evidence to this effect. If you can believe that Caesar lived but not Jesus, then the problem is not with Him ever living but your sentiments blindly rejecting that undeniable historical fact.

I have been saying that the demon incharge of atheism is not only crafty but wicked.

This people can believe any historical event, but not the Bible. Even when other sources support the narative in scriptures, they would still deny and speak against it.

Because those historical events have many sources and they agree with each other. The Bible in the other hand has been shown to be filled with lies and misinformation, plus the events contradict historical events. Why should we believe it?

budaatum:

You should probably post what she says offline here for us to believe, because her post afterwards clearly contradicts what you claimed here about jesusjnr making her leave NL. She was still here when he was gone, hence her pleading for him to return months later after he deactivated. Perhaps there's something you're not telling us except you're not sure of what you're saying.

You're actually right. It's blinded their ability to reason clearly.

May God also deliver them as he did you. In Jesus name.

My own fall was even worst cos i became atheist, turned against God and insulted Jesus, went into porn and mxstxbxtxxn, smoking and drinking even after being born again. Later got visited by demons.

I have stopped sinning. The trouble i have now is about my hardened heart. I'm struggling with geniune repentance and Godly sorrow.

If you care about me, please pray for me. Ask the holy spirit to show mercy and open my heart again.

Thank you sharing your testimony. Not all would believe but I know that your efforts shall not be in vain. I will be praying for you bro. God bless you mightily.

atheistconverta:
You should probably post what she says offline ......

Posting what was said offline was partly what made her delete her monickers, but you are welcome to believe what you will.

And the jnr you mentioned never deactivated despite losing a bet that compelled him to. In fact I think he's still here somewhere.

Okay... however even if you did that, it would still be hard to prove it's the actual person behind the moniker who said the things you're saying about her, because you claimed to be in touch with her, yet said she left because of him. However the same moniker later posted a plea for him to come back. So how's that possible if he actually made her leave? Firstly, she wouldn't still be here then to plead for his return if she left because of him. Secondly, she wouldn't want the return of her alleged oppressor if true. The screenshoted post by the same moniker suggests your claim is far from the truth.

Good observation.
I wasn't really much of an atheist on Nairaland. I was more in real life.
The story/testimony OP quoted was not my conversion from atheism but after I backslided. I believe I shared my conversion from atheism back then under my original moniker pressplay411.

I was an atheist before I found Grace and repented
In 2017.
Unfortunately I backslided in 2019 but didn't go back to atheism. Was more of apostate/agnostic. But I believed in God cos I had experienced Him but for some reasons I bckslided.

Then found grace to rededicate myself in 2022.
And by God's grace it's till eternity in heaven.

Once again, good observation. I was wondering why no one noticed.

Let me reply you like Jesus did;
A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign shall be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” And He left them and departed. Matthew 16:4

Basically translated "there are no atheists in foxholes."

Nice try though.

I have to say that your post reeks of blatant hypocrisy. You easily accepted the submission of the only person on the list who claimed not to be an atheist, but rejected those of everyone else in the affirmative. Even if you feel pained, at least try and pretend a bit. Don't make it too senselessly obvious that viewers would assume you're only venting out of frustration and not reason. Even the more established former atheists on the list who seemed more active and popular than you in this section, you have rubbished their atheistic past. Try and calm down a bit. Not everyone who claims to have left atheism for Christianity is fake. Some are real even if not all.

FRANCISTOWN:

I don't believe in personal testimonies (an individual personal account). An individual could be lying.

Mention one good church please.

A lot of church demoninations are actually good. But it depends on what you're looking for.
Go there to know God and to know Jesus Christ and you will find him and have testimonies of him.
