What exactly does "a religious humanist " mean? undecided

It is quite disheartening, pitiable, sardonic and baffling how some specie of homo sapiens would retort to doubting the existence of the GREAT GOD. Its better you live as if there is God, even if you die and there's no God you have NOTHING to lose

your qoute is from saint thomas aquinas!
but let me put it to you, you live your life everyday feeding yourself with falacies of an almighty God, while starving yourself of worldly satisfaction just to please an abstract being in your head.
noe sincerely tell me, will you be happy to find out you have starved yourself for nothing?

asalimpo:

you are so spot on.
Fear of hell makes some ppl flee God rather than flee to Him.
"Flee God" "Fear of hell" Most people become atheist because these line of thinking still doesn't make sense to them. Not even when they pretend to understand or belong.
And they ask questions, and get replies that still doesn't make sense. God, Hell, Luccifer, Adam and Eve, Heaven...
What if they do made sense somehow? Why doesn't the story in the Vedas, or Buddha make equal sense? At least they are older stories.

mind you son the op is naming those characters himself, in the real context there are no such words.
all you can be, see or hear is:
AN ATHEIST: you are a pure atheist and have no business with religion.
AN AGNOSTIC: you are not certain where you are.
A THEIST: you are a religious person.
anything outside or emerging from these if falacy .
you cannot be an atheist and still wallow in religion.
join the agnostic train.

The only problem or question which atheist have not been able to provide a satisfactory answer to is: how did we come about. Since even nature abhors the concept of ORDER without a PLANNER. Atheism denies "cause and effect" but nature upholds it.

atheists and agnostics are repugnant.

Inasmuch as I hate to say this, the greatest Christians find it almost impossible to win a religious argument against an average atheist.

They can turn virtually every scripture in the bible in their defense. smiley
they take more time to study more than the religious people...

Number 6 aptly describes most Nigerian Atheists. After years of indoctrination & professing Christianity or Islam, they suddenly discover at some in their adult lives they simply can't reconcile their sense of reasoning with their faith. They're left with no option than to take the only logical path but at the same time do not want to rock the boat taking into consideration how notoriously religious Nigerians can be. They have no qualms lynching you if you dare as much as say you're not a religious man let alone say 'there is no god'. You're a dead man walking.

I'm definitely 2 and 4. When I was younger, I used to think something was wrong with me because of my detachment from all the religious activities going on around me. I just knew in my heart of hearts that I don't buy all the crap and rituals, but I had to conform to the norm.

Right now though, when I look back or look @ the religious but godless people who populate my surroundings, I just laugh.

I would have been an Atheist but . . . .

It's just that I believe in one God and I believe in Jesus Christ the messiah and that he came to earth and took on human form as an atonement for the sins of mankind when he died on the cross of Calvary that all men can be saved and be reunited with him and enjoy fellowship the way it was intended from the very start.

Good question and observation.
But I av one question for you.
Do you know the God that created the order?
Is it olodumare, jeus' father or thor's dad, chineke, yahweh, or the vague 'oneness' claimed by hindu doctrine. There are lots of them.

Or u jst decide to leave ur argument at the level of an imaginary source of "ORDER"?
If this is the case u ar not religious but theist. And also a 'seeker' according to the op.
Can u tell wat ur purpose is?

wrong. They have the advantage because it is easy to defend what you know and can see.

Trying to win an atheist is like answering the oldest question in the universe; are we alone?

I respect your views too, primarily because common sense is contextual !

Thing is it makes less sense to think that every thing there is now just magically appeared without a source !
