Any Previous Atheist Here Who Is Now A Christian? by Nobody: 3:24pm On Nov 07, 2017
I was a nominal Christian who becomes non-believer about 4 or 5 years ago. But lately I've been occasionally going to 2 Ethiopian Orthodox churches. The reason for it is not an intention to revert back, but I'm numb at the moment and I feel peace when I'm in church and I'm excited to make cross signs when I enter and pary the holey prayer in my language just because most of the Christian society here do it.

Coming to the main purpose of this topic, is there any previous non-believer here who reverted back to their Christian faith for whatever reason/s?

I am a deist and became a deist in 2013. Right here on Nairaland mainly due to atheists. i decided atheists did not refute the argents for God but could no longer ignore the good points they made against religion.

I reverted back to Christianity 2-4 times between 2013 when I became a deist and 2016. Each conversion was brief and tied episodes of psychosis (I am a bpd/schizophrenic patient). In fact 2017 is almost at an end and if I seeit out as other months will be the only year when I have not 1) had a psychosis (had a close shave though) 2) reverted to Christianity.

So I have gone back to Christianity but it wasnt a geniune change and a discerning person in striklymi saw it while other Christians and myself made hasty conclusions. I wanted to even give myself next year to.come out but changed my mind.

NightWisp:
Yes. OP I was an atheist for a few years but now I've seen the light and I have found my way back on the right path. Believe you me, atheism is an evil ideology that has the capacity to destroy a once sound mind. Speaking from experience.
The first time I ecountered atheism, I thought to myself, this is the treasure I have been seaking all along, the priceless truth I have been searching for. I heaved a deep sigh of relief and beamed a broad smile. At long last, my persistent probing for the truth has yielded a good harvest. My joy was beyond what words could express. I can now rest assured and eat the fruitful product of my harvest. Now my life will be better than before. I felt so cool and rejoiced in this new found freedom.
Alas, that was not to be so. Athough I no longer felt I was accountable and subject to some supernatural kingly being who created the whole world and everything therein, therefore, I was now at liberty, to personally determine my actions and make my own decisions without external influence, I still felt this overwhelming cold emptiness deep in the core of my being. I don't know how best to put it, I just felt somewhat incomplete and insufficient and unsatisfied.
To solve this problem, I set off on another quest hoping to find that which lies beyond atheism if there was any. I started reading different kinds of books (lots of them), watched tons of Youtube videos, followed most atheist-theist argument on nairaland with rapt attention, but inspite of this, I still felt that ice-cold emptiness closing in gradually on me. More doubts began to set in. I discovered new ideas and interesting ones, but these developments only reinforced my despair. Indeed knowledge is pain, ignorance is bliss. By now I was worse off than before I embarked on this little adventure. Had sleepless nights. My mind was so full of many confusing and conflicting thoughts scattering all all directions. Any free time in my space was used for arguing with theists just so I could flaunt my superiority in their face and compensate for my feelings of inadequacy. But I knew I was living in self-deceit.
Well, after those years down the drain, I retraced my steps and returned to the light. My experience was a painful one and not one I would advise someone to undertake. I don't know how I got back , but it just happened. I guess I was lucky. Others may not be.
Conclusively, atheism is nothing other than a vain journey down the agonizing gauntlet of self-discovery. Atheism is doom. Atheism is fatal and injurious to a healthy mind. It certainly is not something to be proud of, or encouraged and preached to people.
Atheism is evil.
Most atheists would say otherwise, but pay no heed to their lies. Atheism kills slowly. Like it did to me, atheism has the tendency to make one immoral, arrogant, lazy, foolish, closeminded and might even induce suicidal thoughts.
Stay away from atheism! You have been warned!!

NightWisp, just admit that you were a depressed, sad, miserable soul. Stop blaming atheism for your woes.

Your problem was psychological illness stemming from no atheistic ideology. Stop trying to portray us as sad, pained, frustrated fools with a sick mind like you.

Deal with your issues alone. I'm an atheist and I'm stable. Much more than most deluded Christian lunatics.

Nonsense.

You are right.

I was depressed and frustrated and developed a bad temper when I became an atheist.

That's what atheism does to someone. It makes you susceptible to what I mentioned above and even more.

You are just particular pained and angry at the fact that I am exposing you and your cohorts for the world to see. You all are demons hiding in the shadows. You are afraid of the light and don't want to be seen.

But the days of atheism are numbered. Christianity is gaining ground. Soon atheism will become a thing of the past and will take the same path just like most ideology that were created to forward a dark agenda took. Yep, it will take long, but it's bound to happen.

[quote author=NightWisp post=62162791][/quote]

you mentioned atheism makes people closed minded. This is a mispresentation of facts in my opinion. atheists are among the most open minded people I have seen and they are less likely to be judgemental, misogynistic and homophobic.

Because your brain couldn't carry the weight of reality, and was still polluted by the wax of deranged faith. You never crossed the rubicon, yet you were reaching for the other side. Your longing for a Sky daddy, and the lack of one in atheism was what made you a miserable sad fück. You're better off being a deluded Christard.

That's what CONFUSION AND CLUESLESSNESS do to someone. They make you susceptible to what I mentioned above and even more.
Fixed that for you! I hope a 'Thank you' is in order. smiley

Exposed...... who? The miserable story of your life has no connection with me. You only exposed yourself as a sad, confused, sick buffoon. Talk about demons! Their torments reflect in your life.

But the days of atheism are numbered. Christianity is gaining. Soon atheism will become a thing of the past and will follow the sam way just like most ideology that were created to forward a dark agenda. Yep, it will take long, but it's bound to happen.
You're a failed prophet. This is a wrong career path for you. grin
