Mister , all deists are theists

and theism is the antithesis of atheism . So please there is no similarity between deism and atheism . Stop confusing yourself.

You still shoot yourself in the foot because you are admitting that the bible is true.

The bible explains why the earth is no longer like that - idyllic , resplendent etc - because it has been corrupted because of sin . So why don't you accept this?

You claimed that you were a deist yet you understand what 'First Cause' means ? Looks like someone lied

hopefulLandlord:


these are meaningless wordgames, you're not WLC, are you?

you lack belief in the pink unicorn, that means you believe in the pink unicorn subconsciously?

please, don't destroy your own thread with inanities

NairalandSARS:


And I am of the opinion that a lack of belief in God or gods is the default state of man, so there will be epiphany. It is you that REALIZED that a god exist that should share your "epiphany".

Curiosity killed the cat hopefullandlord!

I do not seek appeal or a life long piece so if you pride yourself in threads and their length of existence I am not like you.

Why are you not eager to share your personal epiphany here. It's my piece and since my intentions are only known to me I am perfectly on track by asking for it to be written here so I can read.

Are you not proud of your epiphany?

spacetacular:


Prove what? Prove Your Own words?

http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/atheist

and that definition is practically same in all online (website) dictionaries.

branhampaul:
so how is that your problem?

spacetacular:


The comment in bold text isn't entirely true about you. You forget that it's the same website definition for your atheism you offered here. Plus you said THERE IS NO REASON TO BELIEVE IN A RELIGIOUS GOD and I want to share in this epiphany you have.

KingEbukasBlog:


You were 4 , you could barely read .

And to deduce the existence of God by careful observation of nature , logic and reason (natural theology) is a sign of intelligence . Are you insinuating that you are bereft of this ?

CatfishBilly:

So, all the philosophers that rejected how you guys "deduced" your existence of god are bereft of intelligence?
The fuckkking irony, man.

So since you were INTRODUCED that means you received A DIFFERENT INTRODUCTION some time later on in life which Led to your atheism.

Could you share that epiphany now?

NairalandSARS:


I never said I became a theist. I said that I was introduced to the God idea, whether I believed or not is a different matter. My point is that before the "introduction" i didn't have the sligthest concept of God.
1. One must have a concept of something before believing in it. You agree?
2. prior to the "introduction", I didn't have a concept of God, hence I didn't have a belief in the existence of God. You agree?
3 from 1 and 2 above, It can be deduced that prior to the "introduction" I lacked a belief in the existence of God, and thus I was an Atheist by default. Agree?

I mean either way your idea of the earth looking resplendent proves the existence of God because according to the bible , the earth was once how you imagine it to be if 'there was a God' .



You claimed that you were a deist yet you dont understand what 'First Cause' means ? Looks like someone lied

An atheist who does not know what First Cause means ? Felixomor , is that one an atheist ?

spacetacular:


Are those philosophers who accepted and also deduced the existence of God also bereft of intelligence?

You are an acclaimed doctor and arrived at your atheism due to what you said were "unanswered prayers" in your hospital (yes I read it in your writings). Can you say this statement holds true IN ALL HOSPITALS worldwide?

KingEbukasBlog:


Which philosophers ? The greatest minds and philosophers in the history of mankind all acknowledged the existence of God . And they contributed immensely to theistic philosophy .

We are talking of geniuses and supergeniuses , not scoffers and yahoos

Hehehehe, no
That one is not an atheist.

KingEbukasBlog:




I've been asked by two atheists to explain what 'First Cause' means .

I also asked them to tell me whether atheism is the rejection of the existence of an entity because it is deified or it is the rejection of the deification of an entity , no reasonable response .

Catfishbilly and hopefullandlord acted like they didnt see the question

hopefulLandlord:


shut up, you and your imaginary friend called Allah

FSM created all that began to exist

CatfishBilly:


Unanswered prayers for patients was a small part of the reason why I became an atheist.

How people tend to view their unanswered prayers is up to them, but I'm definitely not following a practice that it's success average is no better than chance.

branhampaul:
WTF is fsm?

ambassagod:

Then doesn't that simply mean that, there is such thing as a creator and that the world never popped out one day?

Can i have debate with you on this topic again?

iamgenius:
Did U create urself? What's FSM?

ambassagod:


You are surprised?

Doesn't that show he is special kind of DUMB?

hopefulLandlord:


I've told you many times that I'm ready when you are

NairalandSARS:


And you were asked to give a clear definition of First Cause.

hopefulLandlord:


look! someone that's not dumb but goes around calling anyone that disagrees with him dumb

KingEbukasBlog:


I don't think you understand the ludicrousness of your request .

Lies . Doctors affirm to the efficacy of prayers .

The doctors I know are very religious . Plus Every time a story validating the belief in spirits and afterlife show up on daily mail UK , top comments are from mainly medical practitioners who attest to the veracity of the stories because they share these uncanny experiences with their patients .

Deists reject miracles , prayers and other supernatural occurrences and they acknowledge the existence of God . Please find another excuse abeg .
