ollah1:It is an insult to call anything Idolatry maybe when you evolve you will get that. What treatment can Seun give me ? You are pathetic and lack self esteem that is why you are writing that rubbish. The point is this; Muslims are sensitive to criticism so they are protected. They should reciprocate this by shutting the Bleep up.What is Idolatry? Is going around a desert stone not Idolatry? Is calling Muhammad's name five times a day not idolatry? Is facing Mecca Five times a day not Idolatry. And what the hell is up with that blue kettle? If that ain't idolatry then what is?? 4 Likes |

[quote author=HardMirror post=45205356]CONTINUATION... CURIORITY and DARING TO QUESTION GOD The christian God is regarded as a FATHER NOT a SLAVE MASTER. I took God as my father. I discuss anything and everything with him. He was a friend I loved so much . We had a one on one relationship. You sir are an idiot.. At the bolded, I don't seems to understand you again... You are now an atheist thank GOD.. But before becoming an atheist, your bolded sentences clearly stated you talked to God on daily basis. Now, an atheist doesn't believe God exists, now who were you talking to, a ghost? Whose voice were you relating to? These are some of the reasons I dont take religion serious any longer, when you turn yourself into a religious manaic, a religious fanatic, a religious weirdo, you lose your way entirely because the more you look the less you see.. I am not an Atheist, neither do l belive in do or die christianity.. Many churches and pastors have brainwashed their followers in which you are a victim and at the same time the villain. There is God absolutely, he exists, I have seen things happens that are extra ordinary.. Both personally and to my close relatives that has God written all over it.. The problem is Nigerians takes things too far, Worshipping God is not a do or die, the bible is written by humans and therefore not 100% accurate.. But one thing that is 100% true in the Bible is the statement '' my people perish because they lack knowledge '' I never go to church again since I found out it does more damage than good to my thinking and it is killing me soflty.. There are too much deceits and lies and l aint gonna be part of that but there is God.. So l just sit in my room, say a thank you prayer and made little or no request because if i asked God to spare someones life, wont he eventually die cos we are all bound to die, if l ask God to bless me now, wont l go broke again, if I ask God to heal me, won't l get sick again? So why should I keep bothering him?.. All I do now is just to say thank you God and whatever he adds on top of that I see as a bonus. Life aint hard, we are making it so ourselves.. I know the atheist wont understand my view neither would most Christian fanatics.. I'm just a man knowing God in my own lane without the influence of idiots.. And Op, a word of advice, you need help, you are experiencing depression, it is the truth.. 4 Likes 1 Share |

this thread, a very controversial one. it's an old one and alot of people aired their opinion to discredit the op. I really don't know why it is hitting front page today, maybe the mods or seun was paid for that. So many Anti-christ threads on NL and I have not seen one Anti-islam thread to discredit the Quaran, maybe Atheists are afraid of them? and I also don't know maybe the mods/supermods/owner are afraid of the backlash they would receive from Muslims. 5 Likes |

Tunababa8v: So you are a psychiatrist now? So conceited and arrogant. Let me tell you something for free.Everyone who lives long enough will experience depression in some way.The degree is what may differ.The ultimate futility and fragility of the human condition is depressing and so it is normal to be depressed. I do not know what qualifies you to pontificate about that as if somehow being depressed dehumanizes him or devalues what he has to say.In fact it would almost be abnormal if he were not depressed and ,maybe he is getting that "help" by airing his views who are you to judge............. 2 Likes |

ollah1:I agree and Islam too , Middle East Idolatry both religions Any religion where its God would make revelations so his prophet's son is made to divorce his wife so the prophet can marry marry her and say that from that day on adopted sons are no longer "sons" just for that reason is not to be trusted. Neither is a God who impregnates human women |

raphieMontella: Young man , not a single person will become an atheist because of this thread . This thread has been to front page before and how many people abjured their belief in God because of it ? NONE . There is no evidence for this . The research does not understand that deists/panentheists and so many adherents of other philosophical propositions reject religion but still acknowledge the existence of God . Do you know that deism is a philosophical proposition for just intellectuals ? Do you know that deists since the time of the Ancient Greeks are not religious ? Why shouldn't I impugn the credibility of this research seeing that it overlooked this important factor ? Dismissing religion does not make you an atheist . Typical atheist who just regurgitates without being incisive . drop proof na..lets start something here...not whistle talk Christian Nobel prize laureates : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Christian_Nobel_laureates Non religious prize laureates : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nobel_laureates Just the Jews have more Nobel prize laureates than the atheists : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Jewish_Nobel_laureates nsitive state in individuals''...as fact... The most profound scientists have been religious . The founders of modern science are Christians , the person who propounded the Big Bang is a Catholic priest etc . There are influential Christian scientists like Isaac Newton , Blaise Paschal , Max Planck etc You can continue here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Christians_in_science_and_technology i dont see how this helps you... It only proves you wrong Your own citation shows ''atheists will DEFINITELY increase in numbers... The irreligious will increase in numbers not the atheists So gentleman whats your case? Its a decline when compared to the world's population in 32 years time . yeah right..thats why the only four multiple nobel laurates are all virtually atheists Non sequitur 2 Likes 1 Share |

Your son didn't come to earth as a mini God instead Jesus Christ in his Kindness, Humility and Righteousnes came to the world through a mere mortal.

HardMirror: Brother I will stop following your tale here..... (I stumbled on it out of sheer boredom). Permit me to say that your story bring tears to my eyes because we schooled same period..... Unfortunately where I began from seems to be where you ended your search of God's reality. I put it to everyone playing Christianity to thread softly as you can't run from your shadows. As an inquisitive mind like mine..... I put it to you to search further, dig further, and ask further, then you will realise that the ground you are standing on is a holy ground. WHO ARE MINE ? I AM A GOD CHASER.... who no one bamboozled into believing God, the fear of hell didn't make me born-again as I naturally take responsibility for my actions and inactions. I wasn't discipled by anyone in particular as I followed most preachers from afar, take the good in them and leave the bad. The present church may not be perfect, but soon the 'pastor-preneurs' will be out of business. Watch your back dear, God's love is real.

raphieMontella: You just quote names of random fallacies to appear smart heck! Jainism and Buddhism are religions and their adherents are atheists , they are religious atheists . There are also the Jewish and Christian atheists . Atheism is the rejection of gods not religion . Deists and panentheists who acknowledge the existence of God are not religious . So do you see how your petty subterfuge backfired ? That means people who believe in God like the Deists and panentheists while rejecting religion are indeed intelligent while the religious ones who are atheists like the Buddhists , Jewish atheists , Christian atheists , and Jainists have low intelligence . how does this try to propel your point? Click on this and do the math : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nonreligious_Nobel_laureates oh..i guess the arabs were suckling at their mothers breas.ts right? Medieval Catholic mathematicians and philosophers such as John Buridan, Nicole Oresme and Roger Bacon were founders of modern science the father of computer science is an atheist The father of computers , Charles Babbage , was a Christian . i dont see how these help your points...

laribari: OK What about as his Getting the attention and insulting the omnipresence of God. Thunder strike am like it did to many famous people who mocked God, I pity Humans who just don't have a clue of what is unseen because they are checked in thousands years in the sand of no time. "" Respect the trend until it reverses"". There is nothing abnormal in serving any sort of God. But there are many things wrong in wrong usage of words to a God because of the power the nature holds even if you don't think they exists.. We were made to understand that man was created not to not live under the umbrella of thoughts and Wisdom.. Now I kw why.. But the Lucifer.. He was too much of himself to think he was closer to God and that naturally built in the inevitable hunt of his Thought. (THE OP CASE) He saw the hardship to convince God not responding to his QUESTIONS . so he used man as his instrument to find what his thought Hunts him for "" The reason for the MYSTERIOUS APPLE "" trust me if Lucifer kw that his search for thoughts will throw him down from paradise he wouldn't have done that.. Now again the danger lies not in what you believe or what you are happy with in life but it lies in the thoughts to question the works of God and that's why Men and Satan will be thrown into hell in the second coming .. Because people like the OP has embraced the dangers of thought and thus it misleads him.. and in reality of years to come the atheist will have to accept to be a satanist because they will be forced then and no body to lean on perhaps they had someone before( God) they will kw that "" Few will inherit the kingdom of God"" in Bible doesn't make them their foundation of thought theTruth and the way to life. Basically means given up to creation and living on the foundation of your thoughts which is unsteady,,,,,, Believe it or not THE UNIVERSE HAS ITS CREATOR AND ONLY HIM KW HOW HE WILL PLAN ON DISTRIBUTING JUSTICE TO THOSE WHO HEARD OF HIM OR NOT!!!

Hardmirror, you seem to be learned and well versed but there are inconsistencies in your story. Back then, you experienced miracles and with your gift correctly stated things you were unaware of. Was this all a scam or trick at that time? Was it simply luck? Were all your fellow pastors(you inclusive) victims of mind games?? If yes how can scientifically untreatable ailments and diseases disappear in the presence of God? How could you reveal things about people you never knew? Who is this "Holy spirit" that led and directed you to perform this. Or do you deny this?? But all that is by-the-way. You can be a " pastor", go to church, perform miracles, and even lead people to God yet you might never know your God. God is an entity, a presence, and once you feel him there can be no doubt. it is pointless trying to prove God's existence as that defeats the aim of faith. We must trust him, completely, even in the midst of total factlessness. It seems to me that you were a pastor of your "own understanding". You just seemed to take Christianity up and "carry it on your head" eg the excessive fasting and prayers (probably because of your awe of your Christian mentor, or a sense of duty and purpose, or 1000 other reasons) however it doesn't change the fact that you Never encountered God. You cannot fellowship and bask in his presence talk and hear from him yet deny him. Look up the story in the Bible of those who performed 'miracles' in the name of Jesus yet knew him not and those who will do so. Lastly, God might be wicked to your own understanding, but he is still God, His " wickedness" and your "questions " will not stop him from being God, and true Christianity is trusting God in everything even in perceived "wickedness" and believing in his reasons for any and everything. 1 Like 1 Share |

Hmmm after reading comments from both atheists, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, idol worshippers and satanists my take on this issue is that whatever category you belong to just make sure your name finds its way into the book of life. Whether God is wicked or not don't try to be his enemy. If u are a Christian and you are not sure of your salvation you are just wasting your time. As long as you cannot choose your parents, your nationality, your complexion and your height, you don't choose the day to be born and you don't choose when to die. All these activities are carried out by a supreme being. I will advice you not to be his enemy because am sure you can't withstand his wrath. |
