GoodMuyis:


Why you dey lie?

Now you will assume that you reply from your High IQ ba?

Even in Nigeria Tradition Religion has their own Creation story.

Soflex:


No doctor's effort as well, just the scientifically designed lamp. Yea, it may be special to you the same way phototherapy curing my child in 3 days was to me. There's no need paying unnecessary due attention to any illogical/fictitious story or well-orchestrated dramas. I've been where you are bro, super-zealous, tongue speaking demon chasing blah blah blah......attributing what not to. Just an advice bro, make out time to watch Grey's Anatomy (it's just 14 seasons so far ), be open-minded about life in general and stop persuading people to take up your religion (most times it's counterproductive). There are 1000s of religions in the world and if yours is the best, let your life preach it and convince others. Peradventure you compulsorily need to 'win souls', come up with some super convincing facts to do so. To the best of my knowledge (facts) christians live, die, go through the same ups and downs of life just as the remaining 6 billion unbelievers. So allow the latter to stick with their choices....the almighty God gave us that much of freedom of choice (free will) if you will agree with me.

religion is harmful.
Stop going to church and paying tithes.

OkaiCorne:
This is what I find very annoying about atheists on nairaland...

You are all quick to label someone as a theist or atheist without having the patience of understanding someone's thought process...

I can understand the paranoia you all have by thinking that my findings on Eden automatically validates the Bible account on the story of creation in 6 days...

Whereas I clearly stated I do not believe everything written in the Bible as we know it. The part I can validate through research...I believe, the part I can't, I remain neutral on the matter...

I am sick and tired of all these needles theist vs atheist fight as though it can solve life's challenges everyone is facing...

Have an open mind and seek the Truth...And the truth is not limited to the bible or any religious book or even science in itself...

But these things have elements of truth in them...examine them and pick out patterns cos that's where the truth resides...

cool quote

davien:

There's a difference between heritage that's passed down under legal and/or tradition rites and believing something you don't know to be true from birth because it is among one of countless thousands that promises eternal life and/or a continued existence..

You've just shown bias in your own logic, why not choose Islam? Wouldn't your rewards be greater?

You can boast and defend one under a court of law and the other is dependent on who is also indoctrinated into the belief... You sir are indoctrinated.

Which is why i don't expect you to consent believing for no good reason

exactly. Most theist are indoctrinated and lack the courage to stop believing in Yehwah or Allah.
They can't think more than the Bible or Quran because they are restricted by their gods

Ronpet777:

Nice one Frank...Well thought out.Still expecting any other view concerning this.
Didn't ignore d comment deliberately.

Lolz. Are you planning to change your believe system? If so please stay a Christian. Who cares

Ronpet777:
But come to think of it, believers r in a win win situation. Let's say there is no God and we all just die and return to non existence like we were bf birth, wot do we stand to lose? I go to church worship a non existing God ,go back home and live peaceably with neighbours and love them as myself.Live life with very optimistic disposition that a God always answers our prayers, then just die and return to dust.
And on the other hand, after living d life of great faith by trusting a God we never saw, believing in his words and trusting him completely only to be greatly rewarded with eternal life.
Aren't we lucky then?

So Y do some(honestly not all) atheists feel so much hatred for Christians and get irritated at d sight of any Christian or Muslim assertions?
We r obviously in a better position than u all are!!!


cc: budaatum , hopefulLandlord ,davien, frank317, Seun, segunojo866

pointless quote. Do you think out of the 4200+ imaginary god's in this world that Yahweh is the one true god? What if you're serving the wrong god? Imagine how you will feel praying and fasting to the wrong god all your life. Hahahahahaha

Chikita66:
I will see husband, I ain't gat no worries, but e pain you sha.

lolx
At least i don't have the fear of hell fire like you

Chikita66:
No I can't, why should I date an atheist, am I mad?

low level theist. Do you think an atheist will marry low thinking lady like you? Just pray you see an husband on time or you might end up not getting married

Plolly:

I can if only he would agree to let me keep practicing my faith and beliefs and also not to enforce his faith and beliefs on the kids we good to go

who is the man of the house? Am an atheist and i don't wish to marry crazy religious people

greiboy:
I sense you are the one liking his misconceptions since morning

Sooner or later, you will get the picture

lolz
Delusion

hopefulLandlord:


You're giving the supposed reason Indian atheists would attack Hindu while then using it as a point to buttress Nigeria

An Indian exchristian would attack Christianity moreu regardless of the fact that Hinduism covers 99% of their population; you can check out Indian exchristian subbreddit on reddit and see for yourself

An Indian exmuslim would also speak more against Islam

A Nigerian atheist who's expagan would speak more against paganism

The reason is simply that they have good knowledge of what they're criticising, Yes, they'll speak against other religions too but when push really comes to shove they tend to have more ammunitions when tackling their own former faiths than when they tackle others regardless of the population affiliated to that religion

You're pulling false conclusions from India due to your misconstruing my first post to you and then applying that to Nigeria but the foundation of the conclusion is faulty


I sense you must be trolling from the rest of your post

you are a genius bro

hopefulLandlord:


when did you become an atheist?

honestly I was an agnostic Guy most of my life but last year july i finally discovered that an atheist

frank317:


I am a psychology graduate and so knows so much about depression.
But at times like this i expect you to give atheists credit.
People dont become atheist out of indoctrination. It is a decision they make after thinking through what they have been thought. after asking question and finding no answers.
They are bold enough to call God (a name that brings every theist to his knee) bullshit. it takes a large amount of self will and trust to do this. We call God a bluff and tell ourselves we can handle life on our own... thats self belief and inner strength. how dare u associate such boldness with suicide?

but at the end of the day we are humans. everyone has his threshold and breaking point. Dont just point accusing fingers when we break like everyone does.
If you understand that theists who claim to have a God they run to in times of despair can be suicidal, you should also understand that atheists who claim to have themselves for survival can also be suicidal.

the population of atheists on nairaland is so overwhelming. Am glad to be an atheist

Seun:

People who study their religions more deeply in order to prove atheists wrong often end up escaping from their faith. They become atheists or deists. Religion is a house of cards. The more you know, the less you believe.

brother seun you have said it all. I was once a devoted Christian but the more i study the Bible the less i believe in Jesus

Mariangeles:
Great manifestations of the Power of GOD.
"that at the name of Jesus, every knee should bow..."

name of who?

segunojo866:
you don't read your Bible. As an atheist i have study both the Quran and Bible for 3years constantly. All these religious books lack credibility

assuming nairaland will permit it i will love a Whatsapp group chat debating about religion and atheism

Ronpet777:

Wow! How did u get to this point bro

you don't read your Bible. As an atheist i have study both the Quran and Bible for 3years constantly. All these religious books lack credibility

Ronpet777:

'God' bless u bro... I must say I hv learnt from ur assertions and logics a great deal. Thanks for ur invaluable contributions.
May God reveal himself to U!

which of the gods? Because I know there are over 4200+ god's in this earth. I hope you are not referring to Jehovah

Martinez19:
I have thought of it. My conclusion is that I don't know if there is a God or not. There might be, there might not be. Nothing in the universe (be it the moon, stars, mountains, oceans) tells me that God exists AND his name is yahweh, he wants us to worship him, he sent his son to die for us. When I look up, I see just sky .

How humans came to conclude that God exists and his name is yahweh, he sent his son to died for us, he wants us to obey him, he wanted people to obey the old testament laws then and the new testament laws today etc. is beyond me. Can you give an irrefutable proof of the existence of yahweh?

Yahweh is a mythological non existent god

Ronpet777:

OK, I get u then. Until now, d Atheism idea has never been clear to me. But maybe I am seeing it from a new pair of spectacles. It still puzzles me how one will not believe in any God. D issue I hv with d idea is that by leaving ur mind blank, u expose it to so much mysteries. D Western world r suffering from this as their freedom from religion is pushing them to perversion. Debasing things like homosexualism, nudity and more hv crept in on them.

believing in Allah or Yahweh is more dangerous than believing in nothing. it's obvious these god's are terrorists and we Nigerians have abandon our own traditionals god's to worship Yahweh and Allah which is very stupid

Faxole:


The same way atheism could lead to genocide, an adherence to religion could also lead to genocide. More people have been murdered in the name of religion throughout history than all the deaths in the regimes of Stalin and Mao combined.

There are inherently good and bad aspects to every belief system. What you do as a result of the belief system is what's more important.

True. The world will be a safer place without religion

NPComplete:


Look at this one thinking upsidedown.
The fact that there are a lot of mad people about town is proof that no one is getting healed. If they were getting healed your pastors should have healed all of them by now. What are they waiting for?

When a native doctor does juju, nobody with brains believe him. It is superstitious people like u that still go about claiming the juju exist. Your native doctors and pastors are all as useful as boobs on a man.

cool bro but i won't lie Nigerians are sick with religion

Originakalokalo:



I cannot abuse him back.

I cannot say derogatory words to him


My tongue is not to destroy, but to bless.

These are made possible because of the life of Jesus Christ in me.

He Lords over me remember?

If not, I know exactly how to reply him with words he cannot forget in a hurry.

So, " the dead Jewish carpenter" made this possible.

He made peace possible.

clap for yourself

Ferisidowu:


are there different plans in God, is God now a person who can't execute his will

don't refer to Allah and Yahweh as God but insteads gods

Originakalokalo:



Yes. I am fool for Christ.

You are only telling me one of the names I adopted when JESUS became my Lord and Savior.

The name is "mumu"

This one weak me die. Nigerians are just too religious. You are calling yourself mumu, idiot, lunatic and zombie just because of a dead Jewish carpenter

Originakalokalo:


This is my submission,


When man fell, Creation fell. When man is redeemed, Creation is redeemed.


Romans chapter 8 vs 19 to 22. Has this to say;

The creation waits for the sons of God to be revealed.... So that they will also be free.

Creation is in agony and bondage because of man's fall.

" We know that the whole creation has been groaning and in pains OF CHILDBIRTH right up to the present time"




quote author=segunojo866 post=64861982] The jews hate Jesus Christ till this day. They don't believe in him at all


Lies.


Jews in Jerusalem preaches JESUS.
Not all of them are in disbelief.

Do you have Dstv?

Watch the Jewish Jesus on the Christian channels.

see mumu. Majority of Jewish people don't believe in Jesus Christ

hopefulLandlord:


a dead carpenter who majority of the Jews didn't give their lives to but a Nigerian read a book and gave his life to the carpenter then encouraged others to share his Delusions

The jews hate Jesus Christ till this day. They don't believe in him at all

Himmler:

Young man, you better give your life to Jesus

I should give my life to a dead carpenter

dalaman:


Empty lies. Name just one thing that Jesus himself did for anybody himself. Jesus is alive , powerful and can do all things you claim, yet you are the one telling people about him? The other time you claim he loves someone endlessly.

Just listen to how idiotic you sound.

Jesus love us so much that he allows us starve our self to death just for his blessings

Himmler:
People should stop asking unnecessary questions. God is real, Jesus is real, heaven and hell is real and that's the fact

see mumu. Have you been to heaven or hell before? How do you know it's real? so you think everyone is as ignorant as you

butterflyl1on:


Incidentally my father does not care about your opinion and knowing the kind of person whom he is who has been shouldering the responsibility of orphans and a few widows I am sure your comment would be one of those he would laugh at as he sits and calculates his next school fee payment for the next batch of orphans on his list.

Your life, your headache.

hahahahahaha. So you think atheists those not help the orphans? You are not exposed at all
