U are either deliberately ignorant or just funny, even in Judaism conversion takes up to 2 years, there's a conversion procedure in Christianity, you dont just call yourself a Christian and become a Christian,the SS gurards at Auschwitz weren't Christians unlike the 19 bombers of 9/11 who were die hard Muslims

I thought they were deceiving themselves that being fat is healthy and sexy. How can you look like a bag of beans and expect people not to body sham you.

Nonsense

A001:
Berbers aren't Caucasian in ancient times, but they're in modern times due to invasion and slave trades in some past centuries.

Berbers are indigenous North African people who were traditionally black, but are now Caucasian in contemporary times.

We are still saying the same thing. He is not going to do for us what we are supposed to do for ourselves. When we are ready for change, he will answer our prayers. For now, we are not ready for genuine change.

A001:
Blacks are the first people on this planet, including North Africa.

That's a fact, not a claim. Africa is the cradle of humankind.

A001:
Some things aren't visible to us but influence our reality.

If God exists as the source/origin of all things, I think astrophysicists and cosmologists will discover it in the future since those experts study the origin and evolution of the Universe.

If something exists, there must be evidence for its existence. If no evidence is offered, then there's no basis to accept it exists.

Not every part of a country is equally developed. Egypt was like the climax of African civilizations at that time, so it doesn't mean that all parts of Africa were equally developed at their level. It's same way you have villages, towns, cities, metropolis today. Before Egypt the epicenter had been down in Ethiopia, Sudan, and other parts sub-sahan Africa.

There were many foreign invaders that destroyed the ancient Egyptian civilization, namely:- Hyksos, Persia, Greece, Rome, Arabs, France, Britain, etc. The black Egyptians are no longer there because with every invasion the black population kept moving downwards into sub-sahan Africa.

Will He come down from His throne to help us get our shït together? He gave us brains and a conscience for a reason.

That's why there are agnostics like me. When scientists present concrete evidence for God's existence, agnosticism will die a natural death.

Given the fact that we know very little about the Universe, one can't conclude that God exists or doesn't exist. Hence, I find the agnostic position convenient.

A001:
Lols, you obviously know very little about the history of Egypt to be asking these questions.

Apparently, you've never taken the time to research the history of the country and the people.

Anyone with basic knowledge of Egypt's history knows the Arabs currently calling themselves Egyptians aren't the original ancient Egyptians. The Arabian presence in the country only began a few centuries ago.

Before the Greeks and Arabs invaded the country, the ancient Egyptians were blacks. The body of evidence in support of that assertion is great, ranging from the tons of paintings of their gods and goddesses, to the discovered mummies, arts, to fashion, and even genetic evidence.

To learn the truth of the matter, get good books of ancient African history written by black writers, not the fake, distorted histories (pure lies) the European and Arab conquerors taught to most Africans.

There are some of such books posted on Nairaland, including Otem's.

Even all the countries in North Africa were not originally Arabs (not only Egypt), but blacks (mainly Berbers or Berberians/Barbarians).

There's no need to disprove anything..

You call it naive...


Those that believe in God call you stupid for not believing....


So, it's not about calling names....


It's not about anyone proving....



Humans have shown that they exist by affecting their environment SO the word 'humans' should be taken seriously....


Nobody had to prove humans exist...

Humans existed even before the word 'humans' came into existence....



It's about definitions.....


Since GOD doesn't have any definition that shows anything ,
Then I am correct when I say I know GOD can't be....



There's no limit to what exists BUT that doesn't mean there is no word that shows nothing real...


Actually,
There are words that show nothing real..


E.g.Utopia,God, Heaven,.....


What else?


PrOton is right...

Pr0ton:
Why even think of God at all? What brought up the idea in the first place? Anyone claiming it should be the one to prove it. If you can't prove it then it doesn't hold true.

Atheists are certain that God doesn't exist based on finding that what theists started (a certain claim that God exists) is not true. Atheists are just responding to a claim. We are not creating a claim from thin air.

Agnostics on the other hand are considering this claim theists created from thin air and saying no one can disprove it. If it is like that, I can create anything from thin air and claim you can't disprove it and so it might exist. But that isn't the way reality is. Agnostics, like theists, are just obsessed with the concept of God.

musicwriter:
Part of the system against black people is to create this very impression in our minds. It's very unfortunate. Funny enough, even white people are no longer debating the race of the ancient Egyptians.

Of course, the ancient Egyptians were BLACK, in fact, very BLACK skinned. Please read the book I suggested you earlier. Herodotus was writing in about 450 BC and he mentioned the race and skin color of the ancient Egyptians. Read it and tell me what race he said the ancient Egyptians were.

Pr0ton:
Yes, I am. I go with things that conform with logic, rationality and evidence. I have looked into agnosticism and I find it lacking.

Long time

musicwriter:
All Gods came out of Africa. We were the first people in the world and the first to have the concept of a God, then spread it across the world as our early African ancestors migrated to different parts of the world to become the various nations in the world today.

No spiritual system ORIGINALLY developed in Europe. Anything Europeans worshipped and still do is what they scavenged from others but customized it to suit themselves. If you're really interested you can read it in Herodotus's account of Egypt. It's a small book that could be read in a day and in the book you'll find out that whatever god the ancient Greeks worshipped was what they got from Africa and customized for themselves. But they ended up bastardizing everything eventually and it's on that note that they were called heathens.

An atheist doesn't necessarily mean someone who doesn't believe in god. It could mean someone who doesn't believe in your own god. To Europeans, our ancestors were heathens but to our ancestors, Europeans were also heathens. It's just the one in power that would claim his/her own god to be the true god.

Any other nation can believe whatever they want but as long as we Africans invented God, it means that we're Gods.

Pr0ton:
Affirmative.

This makes you a deist, not an agnostic. Agnostics are rather a set of confused people who claim to believe in God and not believe in God.

Ishilove:
Oh stop, puhleeze. Are you listening to yourself?? You are putting the blame on pastors, forgetting that everyone is responsible for their choices irregardless of their religious leaning.

You are irreligious, all well and good, but don't let your hatred for Christianity blind you to the fact that Nigeria is plagued by corruption today because of our inherent greed and love for primitive accumulation of wealth, and disunity.

biotechshola:
Do you become an atheist because you think religion is a scam, irrational or you're simply lazy to commit yourself to any religious demands?

musicwriter:
Let me say that atheism is a western word, coming out of European heathens. It's not African. In African tradition, there's no word for atheist or atheism because our ancestors understood that man/woman cannot be separated from the God force/spirit.

All you have to do to understand the intimacy of our ancestors and the God force is check the wording of our names. In ancient time, even our names were partly God. Example in Igbo:-

CHIdi
CHIka
CHIgozie
CHIbuzo
CHInenye
OnyebuCHI
ete.

Example in Yoruba:-

OLUWAseun
OLUWAfumi
etc.

You can pick any African tribe you want and check the names and it'll be clear to you that nothing happened without God as long as our ancestors were concerned.

For an African to call himself/herself an atheist, note that you're only being an atheist in rejection of the European or Arab gods, and that's a good thing. I, myself don't believe in the bible or Koran god anymore but I am not an atheist. I know I am god himself and don't need a God. You can NEVER be an atheist as an African because Africans are God by default. We Africans created God- literally. I think I'll blog about this and talk about it in full one of these days.

Africans are Gods!!

Ammishaddai:
So because they're not meeting up with your expectations makes them hypocritical? Now I get where you're coming from...

DrFunmisticGlow:
The bible has a lot of questions that pastors cannot answer. They will then proceed to gaslight and accuse you of disobeying authority because of a simple question.

It's a scam

You're confusing NON-CHURCH goers with atheist... Put them in a car that is about to have accident and see how they will shout JESUS more than you! Nigeria in particular is more religious than Israel. Wake up, op.
