Xtians/muslims Can You Trust An Atheist Like Your Fellow Theist? by Nobody: 5:20am On Feb 11, 2017
I just want to know what the general views and perception towards atheists are.

Like for instance would you trust an atheist babysitter like your fellow xtian/muslim baby sitter?

Or would you trust an atheist business partner like your fellow theist partner?

If your answer is yes/no please state why.

In summary do you think atheists can be trust worthy or are you careful around them because of their undefined moral values?

actually I can, I'm not an atheist though but neither am I overly religious, atheists are just people, they are not evil, they just lack belief in God,I've seen religious people display acts of wickedness and violence, so if I can trust a theist den I can also trust an atheist, cus I HV nothing against them or their views.

I am a Christian and I respect my religion. That being said, religion is also the opium of the masses. You mentioned undefined Moral values as a characteristics of an atheist, well... it's largely untrue. Most atheists I have had contacts and dealings with have a clear cut picture of morals, ethics and values. In fact they usually are unwavering when it comes down to doing what's right.
To answer your question, I define any person based on my perception of them and not on whether they are an atheist or not.

You can meet some atheists with higher moral character and charity than many pastors in nigeria. I can trust an atheist.
We may defer in ideas and opinions but i would never view atheists as inherently immoral or untrustworthy because they dont want to accept that a creator exists.

For example, Tai Solarin had more morality and stood consistently on the principles of justice and fairness than 99% of so called crooks parading as men of God.

What a wimpy made up story. Have you not understood the OP ? You foolishly say He is mentioning undefined moral values.

He makes it clear as daylight that he ignorant and need your help to understand trust issues with Atheists.
I was born into an Atheist family. I have never met an Atheist that is trust worthy They are too pretentious.

In my business, to fill positions of high risk, we only hire born-again Christians or staunch Muslims. Muslims make great baby-sitters while born again Christians excel at teaching young kids by example.

A respected Muslim philosopher said that the mind reveals itself in the words we use. He says, "Thus we are warned to heed the grave importance of verbal expression. It forces us to be careful indeed in this realm of written or spoken language. For the whole mind writes itself down in the word." The mind of the “Coward Atheist” is a good example in this case. I am Atheist and can quickly detect a "Coward Atheist" by the extreme pretentious language they use to deceive their prey (Religions).

Remember, there are only two types of Atheists. The coward Atheist and the Brave Atheist.
First learn how to identify the "Coward Atheist" they are dangerous, they start religious wars. They are vicious when they discriminate.

Have you notice how religion is like a sex strip club for "Coward Atheists". They troll every religious topic to insult religions and even provoke hatred between Muslims and Christians. Is'nt it shocking that this type of Atheists have incited Boko Haram to destroy 800 churches in Nigeria alone.

Dont continue to jump too quickly to conclusions. He is becoming smart as he learn to discern the serious character differences between the "Coward Atheist" and the Brave Atheist." I was invited to be one of the speakers at the 2012 Nigerian Atheists Organization that was held in the Haribina hotel Abuja. I was disappointed when Dr. Ogunlana Adeleke of Kogi state never turned up. He is what my father called a "Brave Atheist."

At the start of this ridiculously small meeting, all the members started to explain like little girls how they became Atheists. It was a sad state of affairs. Only one person had my respect in the meeting, it was Yemisi Ilesanmi of the UK. She opposed the call that all atheists should work to convince religionists to give up their religion for reason. Defending her argument, she asked if there is any standard to prove that atheistic views are the right or the superior ones and added that being atheist does not interpret as being intelligent or super intelligent. This position resorted into an argument between Ogunyemi Adekunle and Yemisi Ilesanmi. She was grudgingly appointed as a director. I quietly slipped out and had fun in a nearby brothel.

To keep it simple, I can only speak from experience. Most of the pretentious Atheists on NL are cowards. They refuse to deal with the topic. They are immature and insulting to all decent religious people on this platform. They quickly gang up like hungry dogs on all religeous topics. They cowardly avoid too much attacks on Muslims for obvious reasons. If you return their insults, they cowardly ban you. Damn !

So, to respond to your summary. The majority of Atheists here are what is now commonly referred to as "Cowardly Atheists." Would you trust them?

Let me start by defining who an atheist is. An atheist is someone who doesn't believe God. In other words they believe God is a liar. If you don't believe a person that means you think that the person is a liar. Why would you want to trust the person who believes you are a liar?

Try starting a friendship with a person without faith. If I ask you what is your name, where do you live, where do you work and you answer me, if I then say I don't believe you are telling me the truth can we establish any sort of friendship? My lack of faith in you is a strong indication that I am calling you a liar. Why then should I trust an unbeliever to be my babysitter? undecided

Thank you. I appreciate your honest and detailed reply.
I find it hard to believe theists can trust atheist like their fellow religious brothers.
I know atheists that cannot even trust their fellow atheist. They will rather deal with a religious person.
Re: Xtians/muslims Can You Trust An Atheist Like Your Fellow Theist? by Nobody: 1:47am On Feb 12, 2017
Actually I am surprised to see xtians claiming they can trust atheists.
In real life the opposite is usually the case, I dunno if the xtians on this thread ate only being diplomatic.

When you tell an average Nigerian you are atheist they start looking at you like a morally bankrupt, sex obsessed, criminal psychopath.

No I wouldn't trust them. Am not very religious myself but I will never trust atheists, no matter how much they claim to be good.
Anyone can claim anything please, it doesn't make it true.

I will even trust a Muslim before I trust an atheist and that is saying much because I detest their religion.

Yes, "Coward Atheists" is an embarrassment to their organization.

If it has any value ; A word of advice from my "Brave Atheist" Dad, He says that no matter what you feel personally, NEVER insult others established holy doctrines. Dont detest it. Protect it.

I admire your simplicity. Simple direct language is the territory of the wise says my "Brave Atheist" Dad.

If a car accident is filmed on youtube it is evidence and can be used in court?
"Coward Atheist" reject youtube evidence of healing. I used to do the same but after I lost a lot of money on a bet that a disabled chap wont be healed that went to TB josua was actually healed I now know how to examine video testimonies.

"Coward Atheist" don't want proof at all. They have decided there is no God and no evidence will change their mind.

If you were a gurl, I'd kiss you!!

Haha.....

Your words are true.....these caliber of "coward atheists" are just like every other member of other religions who believe they must convince you to join their sect.

Everyone has a right to and not to worship......insulting, bickering,....claiming to be too intelligent does no one any good.

I once met a strong christian, who after meeting an atheist, broke down in tears as she heard offensive stuff about the God she had loved and believed in all her life. She lost her faith that day......and she hated the athiest from that day onward.

Live and let live.
