Atheist don't see their ideology as religion/religious.

And beside, the advantage I see in this atheist society is they will get to meet more of their kind in Nigeria.

So you aren't going? sad

It will be good if the Christians and Muslims attend this. If they think they have superior argument for the existence of god, they could push it forward, then win more souls at the end.

Nobody has time to be in the gathering of the irrational. These days of monkeypox I am sure nobody wants to be exposed to a new strain of irrationality.
I'm not talking about rationality or irrationality here. I am talking about winning souls.

Except you want your cruel god to send you to hell for ignoring this golden opportunity of winning souls for him. Or have you made up your minds to burn forever in hell?

Win what souls? Win them to who? The one who does not exist? Sorry no need for that.

Romans 1: 28

Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.


2 Thessalonians 2:10-12

and every type of evil to deceive those who are dying, those who refused to love the truth that would save them. For this reason, God will send them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie. Then all who have not believed the truth but have taken pleasure in unrighteousness will be condemned.

Romans 1:28-30


And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what should not be done. They are filled with every kind of unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, malice. They are rife with envy, murder, strife, deceit, hostility. They are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, contrivers of all sorts of evil, disobedient to parents, senseless, covenant-breakers, heartless, ruthless. Although they fully know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but also approve of those who practice them.


Read this scripture again and again. You have been told about God repeatedly yet rejected him in arrogance and self deceit. You have judged yourself already. The one who can permit your soul to be saved is you. I cannot help you against your will and since you act ignorant of the meaning of the word WINNING in SOUL WINNING then so be it.

As part of its Growth and Development Plan, the International Humanist and Ethical Union (IHEU) has awarded a total of £6000 to support projects and events promoting humanism and the work of humanist organizations.

7 grants was awarded, in the current round and plan to re-open the same process next January, focusing this time on Africa as IHEU’s new priority region for 2018.

“This grant will cover the travel costs and 2 nights hotel accommodation for 20 students from 10 different Nigerian Institutions.
“During the Convention there will be a session with the student delegates where we will train them on setting up ASN branches in their various institutions, and equip them with skills to manage and sustain branches. “We are very grateful to IHEU for awarding us this grant. This grant is a cornerstone to our vision of creating a vibrant youth population in Nigeria that will champion critical thinking and rational reasoning in national discourses.”

Commenting on the award of the Regional Hub Grants, IHEU Growth and Development Officer, Giovanni Gaetani, said:

“We were really pleased by both the number and the quality of the project proposals received by many different organizations from all over the world.
“This process confirmed to us that the Humanist movement keeps on growing fast at all levels and in every region of the world.
“We are planning to open the same tendering process early next year, focusing this time on Africa as IHEU’s new priority region for 2018.”
