I dont know where you live, but here in Nigeria, the religious beliefs of others affect me, by no fault of mine, in almost every way every single day. As an atheist in Nigeria, its impossible to mind your own business because they simply wont leave you alone. I have a neighbor who has gradually turn his house from from once weekly fellowship to daily fellowship, and then now into a full blown church. You have no idea what I have to put up with.


On this forum, and else where, theist make ridiculous claims and assertions,using their usual currencies of fear and guilt, which I assume, is a way of marketing their products. The anonyimity of this forum allows us to challenge and repudiate their ridiculous claims and assertions.

After a while , it becomes a fun and favourite past time.

Stalwert:

Again this reasserts the irrational nature of atheism, as both you and mazaje had claimed being harrassed by christians etc and u in particular complained about noise, which u used as a pretext to debate with individuals who in your words believe in fairy tale yet the below link simply puts to lie the rediculous nature of your lie, as the rational thing to do when being harrased by people is to seek redress from the law, this common sense a woman aged 79 yrs did, rather than run to NL to refute christianity, yet NL atheists want us to believe it is more sensible to do the latter, this my friend shows the famed irrationality of atheism!

Logicboy03:


So wait, one can not sue and complain on Nairaland? Are they mutually exclusive? Furthermore, is noise pollution the only problem that atheists face on a daily basis?


Even you as a human being are a nightmare to atheists. A walking bigot that is ready to claim all manners of lies and stereotypes on atheists.

Stalwert:

Wow stalin says a lot of garbage, it befuddles reason that one whose sole aim in life is to be poster of the year in Nairaland cannot use any shred of logic in responding to simple question, as common sense should have indicated to you there is a context being address, and yes theist are very scared of Stalin whom apparently you seems to behave alike in a shared vision of unregulated hatred for God!

thehomer:

Go and actually read the book. Or at least read and exercise your little brain at trying to understand what he meant. Luckily, it has been summarized for dullards like you in the very first paragraph here. A little reading won't kill you.

thehomer: This is why you fail at being evasive while demonstrating your gross imbecility. If you know anything about having a serious conversation, you'll know that making dumb assertions and densely failing to back them up, simply shows your incompetence.

When you've actually taken the time to read and understand elementary principles in biology (referenced above) written simple English, you can get back to me. Till then, good luck dimwit.

Pastor Kun: Whilst I normally don't like engaging atheist on NL cause I believe they have deliberately chosen to be ignorant, I would like to share this write up I took off a friend's facebook page as I believe it's worth sharing.



Few things bother me more than atheism. It is as though because of
the antecedents of believers in a Supreme Being the Supreme Being must
then be shorn asunder. Most of what man has said is God is man creating
God from man's vast imagination. So, then, what is "God?" I define God
as the source of volition who lives outside the time and space created by
our cosmic big bang. The question of a creator is answered by the existence
of anything. As they say, why is there not nothing? Meaning, where was the
energy that created all matter willed from "in the first place", if not the source of volition?
Volition itself is a mystery. The moon cannot, of it's own, decide to leave its
orbit for a stroll down the milky way galaxy. But man can decide to move and then,
in a singularity-like instance, move energy. What type of energy
is volitional energy? It is as though man has a hidden capacitor that stores energy
and is able to invoke this circuit "at will." What is this will? The moon and sun don't have it,
and they are moved by the big bang and it's inflationary vibration.
This is why man speculates that we are made in the image and
likeness of the the source of volition. Physicists cannot explain what "I" is other
than "awareness" of space in time within the bounds of the laws of our universe. But
what gives individual identity? Can this identity be said to be a random manifestation
of our expanding universe, and if so, why do we call it "life"? There are types of life
on earth, gathering energy through a solar process, but only fertilization and germination create the sort
of volitional object which is not bound by an orbit defined by the big bang's initial
inflation and vibration. What type of energy is this in physics? Nobody knows.
I haven't considered myself a Christian for a while, but I certainly know that it is
the fool who says in his heart that there is no God. If because God is cloaked in
Judeo-Christian garb you deny the existence of a source of volition, ask yourself, what
is volition and where is it stored? It has nothing to do with Adam or Eve. Those revelations
are not meant for those who prefer a more rational explanation of our existence. If you deny
that there could be a higher intelligence than yourself and that this intelligence, too, has
volition, then you are in danger of becoming irrelevant in the argument. Humans can prove one
to another that relatively, god-like intelligence exists amongst and between humans. Why then should
we not assume that a higher intelligence than ours also exists relative to ours, one which does not
require space/time in order to function volitionally.
There are those who say that Olodumare created the Universe and that he sent Oduduwa "down" to earth
to create Ile-Ife. And there are those who say it was Yaweh who brooded upon the face of the deep.
Our accumulated knowledge tells us, however, that the the sense of time was created "in an instant"
fourteen or so billion years ago, "before" which time was irrelevant to us who sense it. This requires
a creator, only because it was OUR sense of time in space that came to be, and volitional sense cannot
spring up from a dense infinity of energy and massless gas. It is alright to be agnostic and to say
that it is unknowable until proven otherwise. But to dismiss God outright without really appreciating
the meaninglessness, then, of existence is folly. The fool has said in his heart, that volition is
not proof of a source of volition. There... I'm done ranting
