We as an entity are yet to conquer hunger, epidemics like polio, malaria, lasser fever, fundamentals of development like electricity , adequate and clean water supply, housing and some many anomalies, so is only natural to portray these tendencies.
.

Human development evolves in many aspects one of which is social & psychological evolution, unfortunately for us as a race the world is moving at a faster pace to accommodate our natural evolution process, hence we are forced to join the moving train prematurely. So when attributes such as what you painted above begins to show up, its only but natural just that unfortunately it will be seen as primitive or archaic because the stage of evolution at that moment.

Guy I don't understand this OP oh. Wole Soyinka is an irreligious person, but his literary contributions are still acknowledged nationwide. Nigerians wouldn't reject somebody's input just because he's an atheist.

blueseacats:
That's because Nigerians Christians try to victimize them for not believing in Christ . So they build this defense around themselves .

Wingback:
He would be very annoying and delusional...Classic example is Seun Osewa, he and Mark are both Programmers yet he abuses his forum to shove down His beliefs on us.


We get it, you are an atheist, doesn't mean you should go about actively seeking for people to piss off...Y'all call yourselves free thinkers but mock Theists...Such Irony.


By the way, I am Agnostic and all I do is poke a few jokes, I just find it distasteful going round shouting to people "HEY I DONT BELIEVE IN GOD"

naijaboiy:
The owner of this forum is an atheist..it has not stopped people from coming here everyday.

So I don't get the point.

abhosts:
There is a difference. Nigerian atheists are usually very Rude, Proud and Condescending to people of Faith but that cannot be said of Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg.

Versailles:
I Have Always Wondered about this too @OP.
I am a Christian Myself.
When Zuckerberg arrived into Nigeria, Everyone was all Oooh's and Aaaah's. as He being 32 and able to Achieve all this Feat at a very Young age. Being the World's Richest at 5th and Probably Climbing Up to 3rd and 2nd in the Nearest Future.
When I discovered he was an Atheist, though raised a Jew by Faith. and He still believes Buddhism was a Good religious Faith. I was Shocked.
But If you notice something, when He and Priscilla got married 2012, they Sufferred 3 misscarriages Until Last year. They had Max.
Upon Max's arrival. They Quickly Intiated the Zuckerberg-Chan Intiative requesting that they would Donate almost All of their welath to the Charity. which would be After their Death?
Is Anything Fishy Here?
He might be very Rich and All. But to all Atheist's out there.

The Bible says "A Foolish Man Says in His Heart, There is No GOD"
GOD is Real and all Powerful. If you don't Believe, Then you should never pray to be In a Life-Death Threatening Situation. Then you are going to Appreciate the Grace of GOD over your life.

Mark Might Be AN Atheist, But that Surely Means He doesn't believe in the Devil. Renouncing his Belief, Doesn't mean He doesn't Believe Deep down in his Heart something else.

Strawman:
Who cares if you're an atheist, Christian, Muslim, idol worshipper etc.?? Contribute something useful to the society and you'll be acknowledged, just like Zuckerberg.

mrofficial:


I don't think Mark would have hidden this comment.

Akeelahtunez:



u believe there is no God abi❔
oya simply invent oxygen u breathe and live on

AnonyNymous:

Lol, go to the religion section and see how people 'bash' Seun for not believing in god. I'm pretty sure none of those same people would try doing that to Zuckerberg, they'd just sheepishly smile and say "yes sir" to everything he says. Abi which of you a christian people will say you want to marry Oga Seun (who is still single, btw ). But if Mark decides "I want a a Nigerian wife" you'll see girls lining up as if its project fame audition. That's the point.

mmsen:


You cannot read another man's mind.

You have no idea what he believes, you have to take it as given that what he says is what he believes.

And a lot of religious people suffer miscarriages and other forms of hardship - what does that tell us about their god(s), their faiths?

When a xtian couple loses a child to illness do you question their god?

When a xtian couple divorces do you question the statement - what god has put together let no man put asunder?

Or do you do what most xtians do and ignore the evidence in front of you, preferring to find solace is myth and myopic thought?

Most muslims and xtians live in poverty, in some of he most unstable parts of the world - why is their god ignoring their cries? Why is that atheism and agnosticism is found in more stable, equitable societies?

majekdom2:
People bash seun because he perhaps comment and talk down on the religious. Mark does not talk down people's activities on his site. If you don't want trouble, don't invite trouble. Dey your lane. Do you think Facebook will be what it is if Mark keeps preaching his belief in Magic and talking down people's belief in Miracles.

AnonyNymous:

Idk why I feel like I have to intervene here, I mean, how many times do atheist threads get pushed to the fp? And besides he only engages in arguments on the FORUM, I don't see any throat shoving. Facebook is not a forum. How do you know if Mark Zuckerberg doesn't have forums he logs into to discuss his belief? Besides, he doesn't live in a religion crazed environment like Nigeria.

Facebook is not a forum.

PastorAIO:


Are you sure that Seun's profession of atheism isn't a reaction to the extreme level of arrogance and [b]social pollution [/b]caused by Nigerian christians especially, closely followed by their muslim junior brothers.

Seun:
Religion is doing far more damage in Nigeria than in Mark Zuckerberg's home country. Religious people in Nigeria are really suffering.
