U take me for a fool huh

come to think about it. God sure exist but lemme be blunt. Many of you atheist just need some slack, so you would enjoy the pleasure of sin. But lemme remind ya'all saying churches exploit it's members and detrimental to wealth as akintom said. I think all pastors are not that rich to earn a living so to say.

More so, when I give in church, I don't cross my mind that am giving to the Pastor. Evidently, pastor spends it. But do you expect that the pastor receive one big paycheck from heaven, while pastor is trying to send to send tithe and offering to heaven. The question would be what would God need money for.

I would rather give my money to Bishops than spending endlessly on one hungry looking side chicken and getting drunk late into the night, all in the name of, seeking what Christ has given to me to enjoy freely.

Well, its not your fault you all attended a dead church, churches whose standards are built on religious rocks. It would be hard stuff when you keep looking for an APC flag in a PDP gathering. All I ask is you try God once more.

Shalom

grin grin grin grin me too. People can't see that religious gods are great fabrications of dubious minds.

Taste and see that the Lord is not a fabrication of any dubious Mind

A trial would convince ya.

I don't believe in any/all gods being worshipped. This makes me an atheist!

Simple.

Deism is not a religion. It is a philosophical disposition. KingEbukasBlog and felixomor can keep arguing for deism meanwhile their god doesn't seem to exist.

Read all the definitions, you are an atheist with respect to the God you don't believe in, MONEYJOEE dealt with this misconception.
that's an improper def. in your def, a Christian is an atheist to a Muslim.

Atheism is the belief that no God exists, that there is no God, not the belief that "religion is not the answer and truth", hell even atheists can be religious.
Martinez19 understand this.

You do not have to waste your time on mischievous and cretinous imb.eciles that devotes their lives to buffoonery and fairytale in the name of religion. These deluded chumps are becoming worried their mythologies are gradually fading and their gods now an object of ridicule.

Given the atheists are on forefront pulverizing their gods and getting some religionists to embrace reason, they must collectively fight this enemy. In their butthurt minds 'Atheism must be painted in bad light.' 'We must scare people away from atheism by redefining and skewing the meaning of atheism.' 'Let's asociate atheism with arrogance and pride and see if anybody will be proud of that label.'

Unfortunately for em, people are becoming wiser and are starting to see through the theists deception. Atheism is no longer believed to be what the lying, mentally impaired religious victims and apologists are peddling.

You do not have to claim to know everything to be an atheist.
You do not have to claim there's no god to be called an atheist.
I don't know and I don't believe you is what makes one an atheist.

Until the religious nutheads and god peddlers substantiate their insane and arrogant claims, any rational person will lack belief in all those gods, and that's what makes someone an atheist.

I know many agnostics that are now proud atheists after understanding the true meaning of atheism.
Re: Why Can't The Theists Understand? by MONEYJOEE: 10:08am On Jul 25, 2017
Agnosticism is not a midway or middle ground between theism and atheism. So you pussy atheists hiding under agnostic label should make up your minds.

We are all agnostics, theists and atheists. Whoever claims to know with certainty that there is or there is not a god is just being stupid and arrogant. I mean one must be omniscient to make such a monstrous claim.

Research before you comment. The app is a very popular app what are you saying? undecided Even if Google references it, it doesn't change the fact that oxford advanced learner's dictionary is no match for the app in terms of depth. If you have used both, you will prefer the app.

I see you shaking and running grin grin grin grin cheesy

Sorry what? the dictionary app is more reliable than the Oxford Advance Learner's Dictionary?

Are you high?

Can you confidently reference the dictionary app in your academic work?

This would be the second thread of yours i am reading where you have made a significant error in stating facts.

Excuse me, Oxford is the most popular. People are used to it. Why don't you research. When it comes to defining words and giving their alternate meanings, Oxford is no match for the dictionary app. Test it yourself. I have used both.

Human beings like you and me authored dictionaries and sometimes they makes mistakes. Dictionary are also slow in updates. You'll have to wait long for a new version to come out. This is why an open source web based lexicon like wiktionary is preferred over Oxford or Merriam Webster.

I know the dictionary you're talking about, as a matter of fact I have over 6 different dictionaries including Oxford on my phone but that wiktionary based app trumps em all. It has more words than a normal dictionary, and its definitions has more depth. It also receives faster updates since it's open for modifications to user. It's a sister project from the owners of Wikipedia.

The fact that atheists disagree and can disprove religious gods doesn't mean that we rule out the possibility of a God. All we are saying is that religion is not the answer and truth.

How does not believing in lies and deception translate to a mental illness or disease?

That's not really what atheism is, atheism is on a first sense the belief that no deity exists or disbelief that any deity exist. doesn't necessarily oppose religion or is anti-religion

That you consider the proposition "God(s) exist" to be false.

What will it gain someone to denie God just for temporal pleasure knowing fully well he/she is going to burn eternity, I'm an atheist not because I want to sin but because religion's God doesn't exist, besides there are rules guiding people, breaking it is at you peril especially when u are Sure of no afterlife grin

I'm sure there are more useful things to do with money than spending it lavishly/wastefully, here in Lagos alone there are about 40,000 churches and I'm sure all the pastors are aspiring to own a private jet if the opportunity arises

in fact I feel like I'm wasting my time discussing religious bulshit with you

I can always tell that you love religious talks

Like I said earlier today. Religion is a man made invention

Religion keeps God away and its not quite cool to pour all your religious hatred on God, cause God might disapprove of their religious action. For instance, I always try to picture Paul in some church service and the kind of response he would give. Of cause, we were warned against falsehood that might arise in the name of Christianity, Paul would actually shake his head.

I wanna appeal to all who would love to give God a place in their heart so they would believe and the thing about God is? You must first believe.
