Emmanystone:

Stigmatized? I don't even know any atheist in real life to talk of stigmazing them. They are too cowardly to admit they are atheist in real life.

darkchild64:


its a good thing you admit you don't know any atheist in real life so maybe you should try to understand some things before you draw your conclusions, one thing I realized most of you bashing atheists haven't even met one in real life so why all the hate?

you and I know that Nigerians see atheists as monsters so guy quit the mind game

Emmanystone:

But will you blame me for seeing an atheist as a monster?
If an atheist can get away with it, he can easily kill me just for being a Christian. Imagine what the past even present atheists leaders are doing to their subjects.

Guy, only a foolish man will give himself to another man whom he knows can kill him believing there won't be any recompense.
Atheists are committing suicide everyday because their lives are empty, shd i allow a man like that close to me?
That will be suicide, and i'm not suicidal.


The Lord Jesus says i shd love my neighbor as i love myself, He didn't say i shd love my neighbor more thyan i love myself.

I can't put a nife in the hand of a man i know can kill me and allow him stand behind my neck.

Dalam0n:


I've lived in India for over 3 months that's why am saying that they are close to Christians and Muslims when it comes to shoving religious bullshit down people's throats.

WHAT DID WE EVER DO TO DESERVE THIS??

darkchild64:

so the bottom line of what you are saying is this regardless of the reason YOU HAVE A PREJUDICE AGAINST ATHEISTS

darkchild64:

so the bottom line of what you are saying is this regardless of the reason YOU HAVE A PREJUDICE AGAINST ATHEISTS

Emmanystone:

Regardless of what made them become atheists? An atheist is an atheist. He hates God hates those who believe in Him.

If an atheist can say the things they say against God who has power to do and undo, what will they not do to an ordinary human like me?

I dey careful with atheists like i dey with winch. True, i won't leave my child with an atheist even for 5 miniutes to use the toilet.

darkchild64:

so when I said atheists are stigmatized you disagreed, reading your comments I can imagine how pained you are,well you are very narrow minded that's all I can say

Emmanystone:

Call me whatever you like. If i allow a wicked depressed suicidal man close to me will make me broad minded? No sir.

I have not seen any atheist yet, if i ever do, i shall but greet him, but will never allow him into my house.

darkchild64:

it is unfortunate that because a person doesn't believe in your God you would treat him/her that way,well I'm not surprised I was only shocked when you denied that atheists were stigmatized a liitle discourse and you have shown everyone the bigot you are,

darkchild64:

when you said you won't allow an atheist into your house I guess that applies for Bill Gates too,assuming he decides to visit you I hope your reply to him would be

darkchild64:

sorry sir,I don't speak or have any communion with atheists"

darkchild64:

it is so heartbreaking that human beings see fellow human beings as monsters because they don't share the same faith if these comments you made were coming from a muslim to you ,I'm sure you would claim that the person is a terrorist but take a look at what someone who is supposed to love his neighbour as himself is saying

darkchild64:

let me ask you one question
since you claim that atheists are wicked,disdainful, suicidal wastrels how come certain irreligious countries are fairing better than a religious country like Nigeria in morality,well being,standard of living and even life expectancy

Emmanystone:

Like i said, call me whatever you like, you won't come close to entering my house except i don't know you can kill me.

And who is Bill Gates again? People like that has got nothing on me. Listen i have a very rich life. Very rich. And as far as i'm concerned, Bill Gates is a pauper, because his life is devoted to money/things. He has an empty meaningless life. The Bible says 'A life devoted to things is a death life, but a God-shaped life is a flourishing branch
And, "The Worth of a man does not consist in the abundance of the things which he possesses'

I value a poor Christian who is a begger more than i do your Bill Gates.

Thy speech betray thee.

You made your bed lie on it sir. When you open your mouth an insult my father, you expected me to open myself up to you?
It's insanity to hand a nife to someone you know hates you and wants you dead.

And, i can let a muslim into my house, not an atheist. At least a muslim believes he has a responsibility to allah, who does and atheist answer to?


Define 'faring better'

And, are they faring well because they practice atheism or because the foundation of the society had already been built solid before atheism took over?

darkchild64:


I don't have any intention of continuing this conversation with you,have a pleasant day

Emmanystone:
You for ansa me before you go nah.
The countries you meant, were their foundations in atheism?

Emmanystone:

If an atheist can get away with it, he can easily kill me just for being a Christian. Imagine what the past even present atheists leaders are doing to their subjects.

hopefulLandlord:

Can you tell me what they're doing to their subjects and how those things they did was due to their atheism?

Emmanystone:

Are you being serious now? Pls Winner01 and Butterf.lyleo help this guy with statistics of Atheists leaders killing their subjects.

hopefulLandlord:


China, Japan

hopefulLandlord:


Answer the full question, I'm serious

show me whatever they did they did because they're atheists

Emmanystone:

How many times will you be told that those people are deeply religious people? KingEbuka spend time educating you on that, yet you still come out here with China and Japan?

hopefulLandlord:


When will you learn atheists can be involved in religion as atheists by Kingebukasblog? Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, Shintoism etc are religions atheists are involved in

An atheist can be religious but that doesn't make them theists

Emmanystone:

And that makes them what? I thought atheists don't believe in any deity? Can you be religious without devoting to a deity?

Emmanystone:

Mao SeTung killed his people because he was an atheist.

hopefulLandlord:


Prove it!

Emmanystone:

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Those records have been posted here over and over, you keep coming back talking nonsense, will my posting it again change your view?

And, what makes you think you can command me?

New Atheists Are Not Intellectually Bright, Philosophers Agree

Professional philosophers, whether atheist or Christian, are surprised by the number of positive reception people such as Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris have received. An atheist professor of philosophy Dr Michael Ruse has said:

"Richard Dawkins in The God Delusion would fail any introductory philosophy or religion course. Proudly he criticizes that whereof he knows nothing."

New Atheists Are Not Intellectually Bright, Philosophers Agree
By Steven Bancarz - January 4, 2017

There is a false societal consensus that atheism is the position of the intellectual elite of the world. That the more thoughtful and intelligent people are atheists, while those who lack critical thinking abilities resort to Theism out of ignorance, fear, or naivety.

However, in the eyes of professional philosophers, it is the wave of New Atheists who are perceived as being intellectually deficient. Dawkins, Harris, Hitchens, and Krauss frontline this movement, which is more of a pop-culture phenomenon than an academic effort. This is not being mean, this is simply what other scholars have to say about them.

For example, a professional philosopher and Theologian Dr William Lane Craig has accused Richard Dawkins' "central argument" in The God Delusion as being the worst argument in the history of Western thought and calls his argument "embarrassingly weak."

He goes on to say, in a review of his argument:

"THE ONLY DELUSION DEMONSTRATED HERE IS DAWKINS' CONVICTION THAT THIS IS "A VERY SERIOUS ARGUMENT AGAINST GOD'S EXISTENCE."

Here is an interesting interview in which he debunks the idea that atheists are the intellectually sophisticated ones in our world:

Atheist professor of philosophy at Florida State University Dr Michael Ruse says the following in his article titled "Why I Think the New Atheists are a Bloody Disaster":

"I THINK FIRST THAT THESE PEOPLE DO A DISSERVICE TO SCHOLARSHIP. THEIR TREATMENT OF THE RELIGIOUS VIEWPOINT IS PATHETIC TO THE POINT OF NON-BEING. RICHARD DAWKINS IN THE GOD DELUSION WOULD FAIL ANY INTRODUCTORY PHILOSOPHY OR RELIGION COURSE."

He goes on to say the following statements: "Conversely, I am indignant at the poor quality of the argumentation in Dawkins, Dennett, Hitchens, and all of the others in that group."

"I HAVE WRITTEN ELSEWHERE THAT THE GOD DELUSION MAKES ME ASHAMED TO BE AN ATHEIST. LET ME SAY THAT AGAIN. LET ME SAY ALSO THAT I AM PROUD TO BE THE FOCUS OF THE INVECTIVE OF THE NEW ATHEISTS. THEY ARE A BLOODY DISASTER AND I WANT TO BE ON THE FRONT LINE OF THOSE WHO SAY SO."

Christian and atheist philosophers are both appalled by the bankruptcy of this wave of New Atheism that is permeating our culture right now. For a more thorough overview of this, check out the article title "New Atheism Is A Joke Among Academics And Scholars."
