Religion has its uses.

To brainwash
To make a community
To do charity
To control
To kill and dominate
To get booty


Religion is a tool. Careful how you use it


"To Do Charity"
How many of them really engage in Charities

Money is just so involved in religion...and it worries me......what God showed me is different from what most churches are projecting.....God is still looking for a man that will do it RIGHT.

Remove money and material gains from religion....almost all if not all will crumble.

JackBizzle, i am inclined to agree with you....and isn't this what has kept most of us in atheism ...... and despite all these negativity associated with Religion ..... I still maintain that there is a God that shows so much mercy.

the truth is that ...people need not go to religious houses houses to connect to this God.....read the book of Daniel.....there was no record that he was praying in the church.......But some How he Prays regularly and God Reveals deep secret to him.....people fall for religious scam because they are gullible.

JackBizzle, God is real believe me.....I,m Happy I connected to His Powers

undecided UK this, UK that.


You and spacetacular sef. Na only una reach London?


South London is a different case. Churches are packed there with West Africans. Old Kent road has about 15 black churches in that same road. One road and 15 churches!

So, yes, you can relate if you have been to South London.

Ya get me, fam? Innit blud?
My post didn't mention London did it?

You are in UK and CANNOT RELATE? funny!

South London or south east as rightly observed by my troll is packed.

We have THE SOUTH EAST LONDON CHURCH with an average ratio of 20 whites to 1 black

We have REDEEMER CHURCH LONDON which has a ratio of 100 whites to 1 black

We have south Norwood baptist


Crystal palace community church

We have st. Luke's church woodside and hundreds more.

Churches in south and south east London are well over 500 and all are either almost packed full or packed full depending on which one. I know them because my team and I ply a lot of those routes.

You are in the UK and so cannot relate indeed. Lying is a terrible vice to have. Either lying about your location or lying about church attendance here. Both are terrible vices.

Most of these churches are run by whites and not blacks or Africans as wrongly insinuated by Jackfizzle. [/s]

If your problem is money then you are not a candidate for God's power.....you will be scammed.

At a time in my life i hated the world and all the material good things that are in it....nothing made sense to me.....i just wanted to leave and that is when the Power of God Located me.

If i was pursuing dollars... i for done die leave the dollar.....every human being go die leave dollar my friend.

I have an ID. You would do well to mention it. Unlike you I was direct when I responded to the liar who said

"Hmm..can't really relate cos I'm in the UK.."

Yet said she never mentioned London but went ahead to say she can't relate by giving a general coverage area. Insinuating that EVERYWHERE in UK (which is made up of ENGLAND, WALES, SCOTLAND AND NORTHERN IRELAND) has empty churches.

Which was why I had to clarify and use a small location to do that so one can then attempt to see the big picture all over UK using that as a sample.

She knows I know and can only sell her crock of bull to others but not to me.

1. Help from church members in time of need.
2. Getting a job.
3. Getting a husband/wife.
4. Getting capital and workers for your business.
5. Getting a skill, some churches have skill-acquisition programmes.
6. Making money as a pastor.

These are practical benefits one can get as a church member.

But atheists want you to leave all that for atheism.
You don't have to leave the church when you become an atheist. Many atheists are church members and workers. Musicians, pastors, etc. Having said that, you have vastly over-stated the benefits of attending a church. Most of these benefits are enjoyed by a very tiny minority.

What benefits does atheism have to give?
Relaxation on Sundays. Guilt-free sex with your lover. Freedom to spend your tithes, offerings, first fruits and pledges. Not having to reject facts that contradict your faith. The world makes perfect sense to an atheist; there are no illogical "mysteries" that you have to "wrestle" with.

Now the bolded is my best part. But christians do enjoy the bolded too. I know many whose conscience don't prick them when they fornicate.

Oga, you are an adult. Will your God pay my bills?

I have responsibilities, I don't have time to waste on superstitions. Furthermore, history and probability is on my side. Atheists are usually more secure financially on average compared to christians and the rest of the society!
