What do u mean extraterrestrial powers?
The sun is an extraterrestrial power I believe in

I don't believe in mumbo jumbo.

Again I ask, do you know God?

Hosea 8:2 Israel shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee.
Jeremiah 24:7 And I will give them an heart to know me, that I am the LORD: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God: for they shall return unto me with their whole heart.

Apparently you can decide to refuse to know him, but that doesn't mean nobody does, because

Hebrews 1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 1:2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

And we have the right to decide whether we believe him or not, right?
believe him or not that is your business BUT you cant make these chioces for him, believe him or not you cant make him what he says he isnt... someones religion or lack of it is his business, an important part of how he identifies himselfs, it is one of those things that is urs, your own convinction or lack of it is integral to ur person.

i don't believe you will take kindly to someone imputing his convinction on you, dont do it to another.

Keep embarrassing yourself trying to find a way to keep yourself believing you have a comrade in Zuckerberg. Why do you think he will be ashamed of atheism at this point, after all these years of success when he was taken to be an atheist? He doesn't have anything to lose by declaring himself an atheist. Stop waddling in the mud, stop fighting it. Just go to bed and sleep, then wake up and wonder where you're headed :-D

Haba! We know how things work in this our world.

What if he was and he had a change of mind. What if we all got it wrong all this while? What ifs? The statement is ambiguous.

Questions to ask ourselves
1. Doesn't he have a right to his own beliefs?
2. What does this change exactly?
3. Who says it's not a political statement?
4. What's the freaking big deal?! This guy doesn't even care or know we exist.
5.Why bother about his religious affiliation now?

Caring about his religious affiliation just doesn't seem right at all. There are many things to learn from that dude....common mehn. I know you have your views, but wrong approach not on a platform like this were majority are very religious.

On facebook, in reply to his Christmas and Hanukkah greeting, someone asked Mark Zuckerberg, "but aren't you atheist?" He replied, "No. I was raised Jewish and then I went through a period where I questioned things, but now I believe religion is very important."

This is unfortunate. If not for the explicit "no", I would have said that he was dodging the question, but he said it. He threw atheism under the bus. He has made it very clear to everybody that he doesn't identify as an atheist and doesn't want to be considered as an atheist. Bless him. This doesn't mean he's not an atheist, of course; an atheist is simply someone who doesn't hold a belief in the existence of any God.

I don't believe for one second that Mark believes in the existence of the Jewish God. The one who forbade Jews from eating pork instead of teaching them how to cook it properly. Who created foreskins to protect the sensitive tips of male organs, but then ordered the Jews to cut them off their newborn babies. Who permitted Jews to enslave foreigners and treat them as property, even though he created all people. Who made women menstruate but then declared that a menstruating woman is unclean, and anyone who touches her - even her husband - is also unclean. Who banished children of single parents and their descendants from entering his temple for 400 years (the 10th generation).

I don't believe that Mark believes in that God. And since he hasn't talked about any other God, I continue to believe that he is an atheist. He may choose to call himself an agnostic, a cultural Jew, or whatever helps Facebook and his family, but that doesn't mean he's not an atheist.

psalms 53. "fool has said in his heart there is no
God" #MyTaskForScience/Technology atheist!
create another earth to replace This dying one
we are destroying!!
Clearly, your statement has only revealed your
resent towards the personality of God rather than
disbelief in existence of God, i have observed
and read most of your comments towards
Christianity and what i see is more of hate
speech rather than a disbelief, my question is,
how can you hate a Personality who you don't
believe his existence?
I would have given you answers to the issue you
raised against God, because clearly, your
statement is liken to those who are ignorant of
the scriptures, to whom Apostle Paul has said,
"the letters(of the Bible) killeth" in trying to
reason the Bible with limited knowledge of what
the scriptures said, you've only succeeded in
deriving death(blindness and ignorance) from it.
You should come out clean and state clearly
whether you hate God or that you don't believe
his existence, then we will know what to answer
you. You are undoubtedly one of those who have
been taught wrongly about God while growing,
and decided to pour out resent at every given
opportunity to express disappointment
experienced in the time past.
However i still can't understand how a serious
business minded person, will want to dabble into
religion, reeling out hate speech towards a set of
faithfuls, in a platform that, not only does it
belong to him but also pride herself with a large
population of this set as members, i see it as
unprofessional of any business minded individual.
I only pity those who model and trust their lives
to ideas of people they can't total vouch for.
Again if science atheist can create a new earth, i
may then consider their views and opinions.

Someone categorically said he is NOT an atheist and yet you are saying "you believe that he is an atheist" this a major problem with all you Atheists, you love twisting the truth even if it is so glaring.

Secondly, on the issue of the "Jewish God" declaring that a menstruating woman is unclean and you thinking otherwise, Seun, would you sleep with a mentruating woman?...since they can be classified as "very clean" to you.

One a final note, If you have a problem with God it's because you created a god out of hate and fail to see anything good about him don't forget that millions of people still love the God of peace and judgement and he has been good to them, you have created a god in your heart that only brings pain...let me introduce you to the God I serve, this God is the maker and the ruler of the universe, everything beautiful you see around you is created by him, if you can't see anything beautiful or good about God then there's a problem somewhere. I am a living testimony to God's goodness and there is nothing you can say or do to change my belief (if you like keep posting anti-God post everyday on Nairaland) my believe in God will only get stronger.

Learn from the founder Facebook (The greatest and biggest social network on the planet) don't force your Atheist beliefs on people because you own Nairaland. Leave them to their believes just as Mark Zuckerberg cleverly did by NOT identifying to any religion even though he believed religion is very important.

Honestly , it would have been so beautifully and perfectly modeled if by default, we only need to relate directly to God without the need of going through religion(s)..I believe there is a supreme being behind human existence (we call him the Almighty God).The universe is just too mysterious and perfectly crafted for anyone not to believe in such being. But then, we all have the right to our beliefs. I like Seun not because of his Atheistic ideology but because of his simplicity,openess and humility,however,we are the architect of our lives and part of the design is choosing to believe in whatever we wish to believe.I believe in God but i don't believe in religion(s)..does that make me inhuman?

Seun, no matter how much you try, you can't subject the nature of God to your rational thinking. He is God; far beyond your level of thinking. He created rational thinking, but is not subject to rationalism. your atheist beliefs do not change one thing: God is real and God is true. If you have decided to renounce your belief in God, it still doesn't change the existence and preeminence of Him. Your denial of the existence of God doesn't change anything. In the end, it is to your loss if you choose not to believe in Him. Stay good
Re: Mark Zuckerberg Is Not An Atheist? by oaroloye(m): 8:25am On Dec 27, 2016
I believe that Atheism, at the very top, is actually Satan Worship: if it were not so, Atheists would cave in, at their first experience of evidence of God's Existence. Instead, they stubbornly continue to ignore such Evidence, because they know all about it already.

MARK ZUCKERBERG has gone on record many times as being an Atheist.

I have been a member of a few ATHEISM vs. CHRISTIANITY Groups on FACEBOOK, and have experienced bias toward Atheists and against Professing Christians. For instance, it is claimed that the Groups you join have THOUSANDS of members- but when you Post, it is the same 20 or so guys responding- rudely, and foolishly.

When they cannot defeat you in debates, they expel you from the Group. When you try to start your own Group of like-minded REAL Christians, you do not find a SINGLE one! How is that possible, except that you are not reaching them. Finally, they banned me from FACEBOOK, seizing all my data I spent four years compiling. Locking me out of all the websites I registered upon using FACEBOOK.

All if their excuses for doing so were completely false. For instance, they claimed that I gave linked to pages that did not exist, or did not give rewards or functions I claimed, they claimed that I used "SCRIPTS," a thing I have never done in my life.

If I were in their country, I could sue over those libellious accusations, and walk away with a hefty compensation. Since I am but a poor and Ignrant African, they can tell whatever lies they like.

FACEBOOK is an Atheistic Institution.

It is accused of being a CIA information-gathering tool- as if Western Intelligence needed permission and cooperation to break through encrypted databases.

Christians have been taught to believe that a Worldwide Tribulation us coming, that will kill millions.

During the 1970s, a Roman Catholic Jesuit Bishop, named ALBERTO RIVERA revealed that THE HOLY OFFICE in The Vatican keeps a database of every Protestant Christian in the World- obtained by infiltrating their churches. SOCIAL MEDIA is a great help in that endeavor, in any event.

Pre-Tribulation Rapturists are taught not to care about the coming Tribulation, because they are going to be MIRACULOUSLY TRANSLATED to Heaven, before that can happen- just because they have some shallow profession of Faith.

They are being lied-to by Roman Catholic Agents and Assets. You can sometimes tell who they are, because they do not tell the truth about the wickedness of the Roman Catholic Church. However, this is not always reliable, because one of the Jesuit Undercover tactics is to vilify the Pope and Roman Catholic System, in order to appear rabidly anti-Roman Catholic.

THE PROTOCOLS OF ZION document proves that JUDAISM is an important factor of ILLUMINATI World Domination. (Also see THE INTERNATIONAL JEW, by Henry Ford.) Any Oyinbo name ending in -BERG implies a Jew, so of course Mark Zuckerberg cannot deny being Jewish.

A businessman at his level has to be careful of what he says in public, because it will affect his stock portfolio, positively or negatively. He should want to curry favour with Religious people, whereas Atheists will quite understand if he is hiding his true contempt for God, as many of them have done themselves.

I marvel that our president is not briefed on the Security Implications of allowing FACEBOOK to set up an aerial information-gathering network over us, so that the Oyinbos can determine exactly where we all are, and what our business is.
