Do you @logicboy [s]Apologetics (from Greek ἀπολογία, "speaking in defense"wink is[/s] engage in the discipline of defending a position your Atheism (often religious) through the systematic use of information. Do you as a Early Christian writer (c. 120–220) defended their faith your atheism against critics and recommended their faith your atheism to outsiders? Therefore you were are called an apologists.

Biggest NL fail.

Atheism is not defended. There is NOTHING to defend. They just tell you to go to hell with your preachings.

Cheii!! Bro, it seems the grasp of english is eluding you grin grin Can anybody believe in anything without defending it? otherwise you wouldn't hold such a belief. Do you have arguments as to why your satanism is superior to my christianity? Is that not defending your position? Thus makes you a satanism apologist.

Hmm.., A lot of you guys are turning to reason like @logicboy every day by day. You simply read and reference texts on the surface but fail to grasp the meanings and applications.

Anyway sha, this is nairaland, it is to be expected. cheesy

If when you know that i'm a christian and you still proceed to ask me these sort of questions(when I assume you know my position), do you seriously expect an answer Because if you do, then i'm sorry, your case is beyond me. Perhaps you are drinking too much garri again grin grin. It's like asking a lion if he's a vegetarian. Are you serious

Seriously Bros!! You need to cut-down on the amount of garri you drink, grin grin I believe it's inhibiting your reasoning abilities. If it was @logicboy who said the above,i'd just laugh and walk by, but not you. I don't believe the @wiegraf I know is this slow to hold this kind of thought.

What part of "atheist apologetics" don't you understand? You react as if it is an abomination, an unnatural subject. What is so abhorrent about the word "apologetics"(I believe you have no problem with "Atheist" ) that it cannot be ascribed to an atheist??

Well, then, considering you claim to have superior reasoning skills, this despite being xtian, asides from all that's been mentioned explain what atheists have to defend. Also, explain how atheism is a religion pls

It follows naturally that whatever you belief, you must also defend, you must find arguments and references and evidence to justify and convince people why your position is superior to an opponents. That's what makes you an apologist for your beliefs.

Whether a religion or not, atheism is a belief. The belief that there is no god and there cannot be a god, even discounting any possibility that we might find god in the future. Yeah!! it's a good as a religion.

lol, you really shouldn't have bothered replying him. Notice his condescending tone when he says the highlighted. He tries to imply that somehow being a christian automatically makes you have poor intellect? Perhaps you should ask him where he got his bigoted view from?

wiegraf:

Also ask him on what basis he justifies his unbelief because if there is no reason for not believing, then atheism ceases to be a position at all and need not be explained or defended i.e no apologetics.
However, if there are reasons for disbelief, then it qualifies as a position and any arguments in favor of it can very well be termed apologetics.
Re: World Class Religious Debates by wiegraf: 4:45pm On Nov 15, 2012
@okey

I'll be back soon enough to deal with you properly. You seem to require some spanking from your godless (note the 'less') overlords. But to start

That is not atheism. Lack of belief, not belief. Which do you think is the default position, belief or disbelief. Which do you think needs to defend its position, or 'apologize' if $hit goes wrong? You also may need to look into the word belief

And have you heard of theism apologists before? Or deist apologetics. These groups do have beliefs (unlike atheists) but have very little to defend. They don't fly into buildings solely because they believe in god(s). It's mostly because their usually extremely silly religion requests it (in this case promising 72 virgins). Religions come with doctrine, dogma, not your belief (or lack of) of god.

And particularly for atheism which is a lack of belief, do you think those who don't believe in astrology need apologetics? Or those who don't believe in santa?

Ah, the indignity! The shame! Of course the condescension was intentional, and meant to be noticed. You think he didn't notice it?

Besides, you believe some omnipotent guy sent himself down to earth to kill himself so he could wipe out sins his omnipotence could not prevent and thus he would not have to flood us mortals again. Heck, you believe in omnipotence, that alone would be derided heavily were it not tagged religion. How in any universe do any of these ideas sound reasonable?

There is no reason to believe. Not - there is a reason to unbelieve.

Really, do you know who is making claims here?

Lol, If I said I don't believe in the easter bunny for instance, I think it is a reasonable question for someone to ask me why I don't believe in the easter bunny.
Same goes for you; "Why don't you believe in God?" is a reasonable question.
