Strawman: Unlike you, I'm not in denial of the fact that I generalise. Yes, I do. I'm comfortable with that. Unless you want to say that generalisations can not be valid statements. You're the one that generalises, denies it, and then projects your discomfort onto others by accusing them of generalising. yes, I generalise. However this time I was not generalising, but rather reporting on a fact about the doctrine of many christians. I'll repeat my statement that you find so offensive. You forget that you are the ones that claim that it is impossible for humans to be morally upright so rather than try to be moral you seek instead to have your immorality covered by the lamb's blood, or as some you put it you seek instead to have the righteousness of God imputed to you. I made this general claim above. Now, please, if you disagree with me and want to refute this that it is not a tenet of christianity then now is a great opportunity to do so. I ask you. Is the italicised statement above true of christianity or not? If not true then I deeply sincerely apologise for misrepresenting you. You forget all your christian brothers who come to say that they are very intelligent and they are going to disgrace atheists and their stupidity Can you honestly tell me that you do not know of these christians that are so puffed up in some semiliterate pride? If you are unaware just say and I'll direct you to some threads. and by the way 'all your brother who…' is not a sweeping general statement but a reference specifically to those 'who…' behave the way I said. Of course you may just duck and not face any of these points that I'm bringing up. Just say 'nothing worth a response'. It's all good. People are reading. 4 Likes |

PastorAIO: Hehehehe Like I said, he was only wrong to generalise, but I brought it up because his comment is very correct for the case of many atheists, not all. That's why I introduced the comment before addressing "some of them" whom that comment correctly applies to. I repeat...many...some of them..not all. Like I have already said many times. The atheists I excluded are the ones I said you wouldn't even find in the religion section of a forum. You, on the other hand, happen to be very active in this section today..hmm..I wonder why lol 3 Likes |

Strawman: You see, you are being untruthful. 'some of them' etc was not something you said regarding the YouTube claim. You didn't say some of them are in denial. You said Some of them are atheists because of so so so and so… So that is not true that you said the Youtube comment was only true for some people. Can I tell you what I really think is going on? You would like some space to be able to make your christian threads and discussions with other chrisitans and also to proselytise to those who might be willing to listen. however you find that all these pesky atheists keep popping up and challenging you in ways that you have no answer for and it's starting to frustrate you. This has turned into a virulent hatred for these atheists that manifests in many of the posts in NL. Lucky for the atheists that they are online and you can't know them in person. If these guys could be known in person their lives wouldn't be safe. You guys want a forum that is biased in your favour. The facts show that on a level playing field you cannot withstand the atheists. That is what is causing all these psychological traumas. 4 Likes 3 Shares |

PastorAIO: It's a shame how only part of your posts are worthy of a response (the worth is questionable sef) while the rest are just ramblings and ad hominem arguments. I started by reporting a post from YouTube which says atheists are in denial, and I wasn't supposed to misquote that in any way because it is not my post. Then I went on to say that "some of them" are atheists for different reasons. I then pointed out that I acknowledge that many of who became atheists for those reasons (and even the ones that became atheists for other reasons), who are constantly on the necks of many theists online are in denial - which relates my own part to the post I introduced. That is why I introduced that comment first, because it relates to "some of them" (the atheists) I was referring to. Finally, I said the ones who are sure of themselves and don't bother with all this, you won't even find them in religion section of a forum (exonerating myself from generalising) That was the crux of my post, so...your problem? I don't know what's so hard for a reasonable person to understand in what I was saying sha, but it seems you're just looking for an argument, and sadly I do not have your time.

Strawman: Actually, it seems that you do have my time. And you are deciding to waste it resorting to lies to duck out of lies. and I wasn't supposed to misquote that in any way because it is not my post.So did you quote it verbatim or were you paraphrasing? Can you give us the link to the quote so that we can check it?
You don't have to give us a step by step account of what happened. We were there, reading everything you said word by word. If you don't believe I'll tell you what happened: You made a big generalisation of a claim by saying: Athiests are in Denial. Then you went on to say some of them were atheists for one reason and others were atheists for another reason. Then you accused me of making generalisations. No matter how convolutedly you try to explain it the facts remain unchanged. If you retract and say that the YouTube comment was wrong in generalising then that is a big step in your redemption. I understand that you are trying to disown the YouTube Comment now. That is understandable. After all Success has many fathers, but Failure is an Orphan. Finally, I said the ones who are sure of themselves and don't bother with all this, you won't even find them in religion section of a forum (exonerating myself from generalising) How do you know this? Did you take a survey? Or are you just making things up? 1 Like |

frank317: Ignore him. His sole purpose for coming to NL is to prove that he has the biggest vocabulary and is the most intelligent person here. That's all. It is best to just concede those points to him and then ignore him. You can't get a decent conversation out of him. |

PastorAIO: You should also add to ridicule and troll atheists - that's the fun part . Funny enough , I dont use much of big words like I do on Twitter . I gain followers just for composing sentences with sesquipedalian words . So cool . But Im not here to prove that I'm smart .. nope nope nope |

KingEbukaNaija: There is precision in language. By dismissing the word God, the atheist is signaling that his vocabulary contains more precise words that better describe it's acceptable connotations. My brother Folykaze will call an influential person God. My atheist brothers use the phrase influential person instead of God because it is more precise. I use the word God to mean the source of the universe only. You use it to describe the source of the universe who dictated commandments to his chosen humans, the Israeli Jews, and even managed to walk among us as an Israeli person. |
Re: Why Do Atheists Hate God? by KingEbukaNaija: 4:45pm On Jun 13, 2016 |
Weah96: . Because atheists use different words to describe God therefore atheists have a large vocabulary . Kai .

[quote author=Elohim1 post=46542611][/quote] Daft . Christians also have different descriptions for God so I can also conclude that Christians have a large vocabulary . Well everyone is happy now |
Re: Why Do Atheists Hate God? by Weah96: 6:48pm On Jun 13, 2016 |
KingEbukaNaija: God is ambiguous. It invokes different ideas and images. Atheists use more precise language instead. Wetin dey worri u? Why do you feel slighted? |

KingEbukaNaija:Frank317 is the most unintelligent atheist on nairaland, at least by assessing his posts. He regurgitates the same words over and spices it with insults. I can point out an insult on almost every christian thread he visits. 1 Like 1 Share |

Weah96:Atheists rage at anything God. Isnt it surprising that you are the only "atheist" that has this idea of a God as the source of the universe. You have the views of a deist. |
Re: Why Do Atheists Hate God? by Weah96: 8:30pm On Jun 13, 2016 |
winner01: But everyone believes that the universe had an origin. They prefer not to taint such a clear notion with a loaded word like God. That's only because the word has been hijacked to imply a talking book author of Jewish or Arabic decent. |
Re: Why Do Atheists Hate God? by winner01(m): 8:43pm On Jun 13, 2016 |
Weah96:Everyone? Thats seriously incorrect. Maybe you should open a thread asking atheists if the universe has an origin and then analyse their responses, that will help you know a little about your worldview. You dont seem to know what you're into. |
Re: Why Do Atheists Hate God? by Weah96: 8:53pm On Jun 13, 2016 |
winner01: I've never seen anyone argue that here, but I'm willing to be proven wrong. |
Re: Why Do Atheists Hate God? by winner01(m): 8:59pm On Jun 13, 2016 |
Weah96:How come you are the only one who argues in favour of a known source. Like i said, open a thread. |
