janettee:


You are a religious bigot and promote tribalism?.

Someone with your level of supposed 'education' shouldn't be doing that but here we are

LordReed:


May be we should start ignoring people who say atheism is a religion because we know why they are doing it. They do it to blunt the edge off the attack on religion as a redundant tool. LoLz only a dumkopf says atheism is a religion anyway.

MrColdsweat:
while you can claim that we're doing it to edge you off, I can also claim that you're ignoring the claim because you fear it might be true.

Why we make claims shouldn't matter.

What should matter is the truth value of the claims we make.

Most of you are guilty of almost everything you accuse religionists of.

You are as dogmatic and have the tendency to be fanatical as religionists.

You mock the God of the Christian faith but you refuse to critically look for the deficiencies of the god we worship in science, measurement and observations.

You both have dictatorial tendencies.
While Christians insist on spreading the good news of God and hold faith as a pathway to the truth, you look to suppress faith and every religious beliefs, and you place science as a yardstick for attaining the truth. Forgetting that faith is a neccesary ingredient for knowledge. Forgetting that faith and reasoning are two sides of a coin.

Look in the mirror you're no different from the people you mock.

LordReed:


Don't make yourself a liar. If you cannot point out where I have attempted to suppress faith and religious belief then refrain from attributing that to me or you can just be a liar, make your choice.

May be you should go look up the meaning of religion in the mean time.

MrColdsweat:


Come on, don't be salty. When I say you, I say atheists in general.

It's very funny to hear an atheist tell me to be careful with definitions when his whole belief system is rooted in faulty definitions.

LordReed:


LoL! Says the man complaining about how atheism is a religion and how atheists are out to suppress religion, very rich. Your whole rant is the very meaning of equivocation while you are yet to show how an atheism is beliefs rooted in faulty definitions. Very rich bullshit.

MrColdsweat:
The issue is with you dummies.

You assume religion is all about gods and praises and worship and then you infer from your faulty assumptions.

Look around the thread, you claim religion is bad, god doesn't exist etc When you even don't have concrete definition of these terms. Don't you feel stupid making conclusion on things you're ignorant of?

Because Christians worship a god, does that mean all religions are centered on god worship?

You think the nonsense greco-roman Christianity given to us by the catholic is the true Christianity. Then you make nonsense deductions about religion using the Nigerian Christianity as a case study.

If religion is bad, why is Confucianism credited for the growth and success of Japan?


That is one of the many problems with atheism.

Confidence in ignorance.

MrColdsweat:
Logic is rooted in language

Once you have a faulty or ambiguous definition or a linguistic problem, logic will fail because inference can also be made from the so called linguistic problem.

Concepts like good, bad, God etc have ambiguous definitions. Any attempt at inferring from these definition is a waste of time.

Until you have a concrete definition of God, you cannot make conclusions.

How can you do so when you shut your mind against understanding what God is?

This is why atheism is regarded as closed-minded. You shut your mind towards experiences which transcends the natural.


If a scientist dreams of discovering a time machine, he must have faith that it is possible and also have faith that he can do it. There's no other way.

All unknown truths and knowledge lie in the unknown and how do you step into the unknown if not with faith?

Faith is the first step of every discovery.

Don't shut your mind against faith.

LordReed:


You dunce, where did you see me claim god doesn't exist? You see how you make yourself look stupid. BTW what claims do you even know I have made before you can go on to say whether or not my claims are founded on faulty definitions. You are the one making yourself look stupid by making hasty and stupid generalizations.

MrColdsweat:


A sleak way of excluding yourself.


I once said by saying you, I meant a common behavior with you atheists but you just happened to be an expert at dodging and shifting goalposts.


All of a sudden, you have never made claims about God or religion.

Funny lots....

LordReed:


Have you asked what definition of god we have before you go on to spit nonsense? Dummy.

MrColdsweat:


Why should I care about an atheist's definition of God when I know your belief system is rooted in faulty definitions?


I suspect you also don't know the definition of dummy.

Funny lots.

LordReed:


You dunce, where did you see me claim god doesn't exist? You see how you make yourself look stupid. BTW what claims do you even know I have made before you can go on to say whether or not my claims are founded on faulty definitions.

MrColdsweat:


You're the dunce here. You're not only a dunce. You're a hypocrite. I made a claim that atheism is a religion and You made this comment.



You must be a fool to call religion a redundant tool.


According to wikipedia, This is the definition of religion.



"Religion is a social-cultural system of designated behaviors and practices, morals, worldviews, texts, sanctified places, prophecies, ethics, or organizations, that relates humanity to supernatural, transcendental, or spiritual elements.[1] However, there is no scholarly consensus over what precisely constitutes a religion.[2][3]

Different religions may or may not contain various elements ranging from the divine,[4] sacred things,[5] faith,[6] a supernatural being or supernatural beings[7] or "some sort of ultimacy and transcendence that will provide norms and power for the rest of life".[8] Religious practices may include rituals, sermons, commemoration or veneration (of deities and/or saints), sacrifices, festivals, feasts, trances, initiations, funerary services, matrimonial services, meditation, prayer, music, art, dance, public service, or other aspects of human culture."


Tell me how football, music, art are all redundant tools and I'll once again tell show you how ignorance is way of life to you lots..


This is my last reply.

Dummy!

LordReed:


It is dumkopfs like you that attempt the equivocation of calling sports a religion. Nobody on a day to day basis calls any of these things you mention religion until they want to make brain dead equivocations in other to sound intelligent. You are dumb and continue to be dumb whenever you use this equivocation.

No need to waste my time on a dumkopf who does not know the meaning of the words he his bandying about.

MrColdsweat:



Fool. Did you not see where I mentioned that Confucianism and taoism helped in the moral uprightness and development of Asia?


Fool, Are Confucianism and Taoism redundant tools?

Fool, with your atheism, Are you smarter or morally upright than the average Asian?

Fool, can't see that the lack of universal definition of religion is why I'm still here trying to fix you?

Fool, if there's still a serious contention on the definition of religion, don't you see that you're suffering from stupidity to make a conclusion saying religion is a redundant tool?


Fucking idiot calling me dumb.



Your father should have ejaculated on his bedsheet instead of ejaculating in your mum....

Let's do it the insult way since you have refused, rather since you're not sensible enough to recognise your own stupidity.

LordReed:


Brainless zombie what does all this have to do with calling sports and music religion?

Who cares if an Asian is more smart and morally upright than I am, what again does that have to do with calling sports and music religion?

You are dumb and remain dumb.

Meanwhile, my father's sperm is has more thinking capacity than the white compost heap you assume you have as a brain.

MrColdsweat:
you know you messed up so you had to keep dodging like you always do.
I bet you now feel ashamed calling religion a redundant tool.

And Of course, by my definition and several definitions, football is a religion as long as it is a systematic approach for the cultivation of happiness and passion. You hear me? Passion and happiness.

I could give a proof for my claim but I doubt you would comprehend due to your battle with stupidity.


No, calling you stupid is not an insult. According to Kant, stupidity is a deficiency in sound reasoning which results in poor judgement.

Calling religion a redundant tool is proof that you have so much stupidity in you.

If your father saw this claim you made, he'd curse the day he thought of sleeping and peeing you in your mum.


Just look at you, you don't know what religion is.

Man, go and tear your educational certificates. You've failed everyone.

Also, I dare you to make another claim.

Let me butcher you once more.

joseph1013:
No single faith healer anywhere in the world has called a coronavirus patient and laid hands to heal him.

Just take a moment to think about it.

Not a single one!

This is especially true when you realize that there is no better occasion to manifest the glory and greatest of God than at this point in human history.

I put these things out there so believers can understand what lies they have lived.

shekauvsbuhari:
. I want to let you know that divine healing exists and is a reality. There are servants of God with that divine gift. I'm a living witness. However the problem is that most if not all of them began to take the glory as if it in their hands to heal anybody or perform miracles of healing. They now organise crusades and tell people to come and receive their healing. That's wrong. Miracles are supernatural interventions of God in the affairs of man. A means whereby God sets aside the natural order of things or natural laws to do extra ordinary things. It is not under the control of any man. That is why a man of God can pray for twenty persons and only three may get instant or miraculous solutions. It's at God's discretion so to say. But the men of God began to feel puffed up and started boasting of their gifts and power and began to make it look as if they control things in order to draw following to themselves and make money too. They don't control anything. God heals supernaturally but the men of God have made the things of God to look like a scam. So situations like this humbles them and puts them in their place. Men of God are mere vessels that God chooses when and how to use. The power is God's and if God does not want to act, they can't do anything. However they don't say the whole truth to the people. That's why people who don't know the truth, and they're in the majority literally worship them.

Omar09:


Why do I try so hard to make someone adamant to our belief about God believe in him. What you do is ignore them. When they're tired, they'd have rest and probably start their ranting again.

Omar666:


Why do you try so hard to make someone adamant to our belief about love believe there are faithful girls, and that single mothers are not second class citizens? What you do is ignore them. When they're tired, they'd have rest and probably start their ranting again.

joseph1013:
These guys are ridiculous.

You won't see them criticize Boko Haram for their killings...

You won't see them criticize those who have arrested an atheist in a secular Nigeria for 'blasphemy' (whatever that even means)...

But they will be out en masse saying, "But why did Mubarak Bala criticize Islam?"

Bros...you're a potential terrorist. You just don't have the opportunity yet.

No belief should be above criticism. None whatsoever!

joseph1013:
Beliefs should be subject to reason, criticism and change. Considering all untold evil perpetrated due to beliefs systems, why do you think that even the presently treasured beliefs of yours will hold any water in times to come?
