Morality: Why Are Christians More Morally Guided, Whereas Atheists Lacks It? by Macelliot(m): 4:56pm On Sep 27, 2014
In terms of Moral; I have noticed that Christians are more morally guided, but incase of Atheists, they lacks it. Even their offsprings(children) lacks Moral, are dis-respectful, and rude e.t.c. They see nothing bad in it rather, they terms it Nature...
WHY?

Christians are Morally guided?

This is the biggest lie in the universe.

Christians are moral schizophrenics.

For example, If christians were morally guided, they would be in all the streets of Nigeria demanding that T.B clown Joshua be prison right now for criminal negligence that led to the deaths of 115 human beings.

This tragedy exposes the moral hypocrisy , the moral schizophrenia of Nigerian christians.

How many Nigerian christian churches are involved in providing care, aid and relief to ebola victims in Liberia and Seirra Leone?
How many NIgerian churches have built schools, free or even subsidized, for the children of their members?

Liars and hypocrites.

To me, I think atheist has morality when compared to christians.

Most atheist were once a good and chaste christians who have actually read their bible and being an atheist won't change their already deep-rooted conscience.

Some christians are ignorant of knowledge and hypocrites.

I can make the case that all our political leaders, past and present, presidents, governors, LG chairmen, ministers, etc have all been devoutly religious and loyal to either of our tokumbo religions.
And look at the mess they have all left behind.

No atheist has demanded money from others for divine favor or blessing.

This is an interesting and Monumental take on corrupt and failed leadership. In this, you unknowing defeat and annul your op, because, here, you are admitting that religious people are pretenders and frauds who use religion, Christianity and Islam to cover their innate nature of evil.
Thank you for that admission.

It is true that some Christians do immoral things sometimes but their conscience beats them about it unlike atheists. For most atheists, fornication, adultery, bribery etc are normal things. They don't care how it affects human lives. And the way most of them verbally abuse people without any form of remorse is unimaginable.

Madam or miss,
Kindly go to Nigerian abortion clinics and survey what percentage of the abortions are taken by female atheists.[url][/url] cool

Go to any prison and take a head count of atheists as a percentage of the prison population.
What about the fact that Nigeria is one of the most corrupt nations on the planet?
Are Nigerian atheists responsible for that?

The difference with you pretenders is that you can never take responsibility.
Look at TClown Joshua and taking responsibility.
Look at the op blaming the irresponsibility of politicians on "their atheistic attitudes".
Look at Catholic pedophile priests blaming their child victims. And the list goes on.

And lest I forget, you have the devil, on an eternal retainers hip to carry the blame for the contradictions of your invisible skydaddy.

Macelliot, how can you be so fooliish?

So you're basing your superior morality on the bible. Let me show you some of the good deeds of Yahweh.

1. Deuteronomy 13:6-10, God commands that you must kill your wife, children, brother, and friend if they worship other gods.

Emphasis on "must". If you have not killed any heretic yet, you have disobeyed God and you will go to hell.

2. Genesis 38:9-10, God kills a man for refusing to impregnate his brother’s widow.

He didn't even require them to be married first. I hope you would be willing to impregnate your brother's wife for God.

3. Judges 14:11-19, Samson loses a bet for 30 sets of clothes. The spirit of God comes upon him and he kills 30 men to steal their clothes and pay off the debt.

The spirit of God had to come on him to get him to steal.

4. 2 Kings 2:23-24, some kids tease the prophet Elisha, and God sends bears to dismember them.

Why haven't you set a dog on any child you don't like? Is your conscience more sensitive than God's own?

Let's stop with these four. Does any of them seem wrong to you? Yes/No

If your morality is identical to God's you shouldn't have a problem with any of them. If you have a problem with any of them then your morality is not identical to God's own. By extension, you have gone beyond God to determine what is or isn't moral. God alone then does not account for your entire morality.

Pray tell, where does the remainder of your morality come from? Is it by any chance the same place atheists get theirs?

My good sir, I am a Christian and I believe everyone is responsible for what they do, not the devil. The devil only tempts you, it is not his fault that a person's faith is too poor so as to yield to that temptation.

All I'm saying is that a good number of people in our society do immoral things but the spirit beats a Christian to recognize the wrong doing and have a repentant heart while most atheists seem to have no qualms with the immorality.
But as you don't believe in God you also don't believe in the devil so their is no point in telling you that the devil manipulates all those you say are doing evil and they yield to it, cause you won't believe it.

He he he! grin grin
First you don't blame the devil because everyone is responsible for what they do, then later, you blame the same devil for manipulating christians into the immoral things they do. shocked
Which one na? grin grin

You see, you just proved my point that christians can never live a life of self-responsibility without finding a way to blame the devil for their moral shortcomings.

Also, remember that you christians have this get-out-of-jail card you call forgiveness of sins. lol cheesy
It is a schizophrenic device that is supposed to absolve of you of all your acts of immorality once you utter prayers to your imaginary invisible skydaddy.
We atheists do not have such an imaginary luxury.
Nope, no such delusions.
We take responsibility for our moral shortcomings.
