You have no idea, it's a lot tougher for someone who grew up with indoctrination like I did.
i see, so why did you make the change from islam to christianity? how that take happen

Thus it is safe to assert that you believe that the universe erupted by chance, meaninglessly, purposelessly, and from nothing?
i would say yes the universe came by change. did it come from nothing? maybe or the universe has always existed. My main point is that the universe doesn't need a God to exist.

Assuming God exists, would you expect that HE/SHE/IT would be such an entity as to be observed with your physical eyes?
not by my physical eyes but it should be observed.  the christian God did appear to moses (well his backside  cheesy)

Since we mention the word physical, maybe i should also ask if along with rejecting the existing of God, you also reject the existece of all spirituality?
I do reject them for the most part.   You can call me a doubting thomas

Hi Bawomolo -

Thank you so much for taking the time to make your responses.

Might this suggest that your atheism is based on a rejection of norm and convention; a rejection of that which is accepted as proper in society as opposed to a definitive rejection of the idea of the existence of God?
rejection against norm and convention moved me to deism (a much safer place than organized religion), rejection against the idea of God existence moved me to atheism. 

So what do you make of this idea: that it is religion and the religious type-cast of “God” that may be your annoyance: and not necessarily the idea of a Creator per se?
I have no problem believing in a God that can be observed or experienced.  I won't worship it though.  The first question  would be what makes a God and what qualities does a God have?  Why can't there be a multitude of Creator gods?

naijababe:
I feel you man. I was born into a muslim family, became a xtian 10 yrs ago but found out that Jehovah is just as bad as Allah and right now I am  a proud deist.
Good to see you have freed yourself from dogma.   It must have being tough making the step towards deism.

See bawo don get thread o!!  grin  tongue

I have always agreed with bawo on many things except homosexuality (Its not like its a bad thing, its just that it goes against the principles of nature regarding mating).[/quote]abi o, i can now die in peace  cheesy.   As per homosexuality,  the sole purpose of sex in nature isn't for mating though.   A significant amount of people we ignore are the bisexuals and pansexuals. They have kids while engaging in same-sex relationships at the same time.

^^^ Ok, first off: what is your religious/ cultural background, as per family.

Then what conviced you to tow you present path (atheism)?
Oh i see what you are asking about.  Born into a Yoruba household from Osun state (actually raised in Lagos).  Raised as a baptist, was never actively involved in the doctrine but i did believe the God in the Bible was real.   I really can't pin point an event that moved me toward atheism.  what pushed me away from christianity was my growing liberalism.  As we all know, anyone who supports assisted suicide, abortion and gay marriage isn't exactly going to be enamored with Christianity.

It all started about 5 years ago when i became disillusioned with with sectarianism in Christianity and religion as a whole.   I began to wonder whether God really wanted to be worshiped and if any religion had a monopoly on the "true" word of God.   This moved me to become a deist (similar to what you are now) but deism seemed shallow to me and kind of an halfway house.   I read a few works by David Hume, John Locke and co (well i skimmed through them  cheesy).  The more i thought about things, the more i felt the world doesn't need a God to exist nor as there being proof to support the existence of one.  Here i am today, an unapologetic atheist.

@ bawomolo

dont be evasive. ,  . .I am looking out for your response. and whats your view on homosexuals?
Oh i believe homosexuality is a natural side to man.  Sexuality is complex and not as simple as man and woman fuccing just to produce babies. pardon my language.   I believe homosexuals should be allowed to be what they are.   Why stop someone from doing what they love ( if it doesn't humanity as a whole) ?  I believe they should have the same rights as heterosexual couples.

Now, tell me, as a human being, can you, at once, see all the sides of a cube (not the net layout, but a solid form)?
there are material scientists who deal with such things.   No one says man can reason out everything but to equate the unknown with the extra-terrestrial is what we atheists are against. Can God exist? yes but does the earth need God to exist (especially an all knowing jealous bipolar one)? no.

A thread about me on nairaland? I never saw that coming.   My views on homosexuality are known to everyone but i won't mind answering some questions.

tough time.

The key words: "about to", do you know anything about oil? Who will build the infrastructure to extract the oil? How long will it take Ghana to produce 1 million barrels? How do you know Ghana will use the income from oil to develop its country? What will be the price of oil next year? This is pure speculation - lets see.
I see no reason why Ghana can't build it's own version of Aramco.

You are coming across as if I am defending Zimbabwe is Zimbabwe Africa? Look that country has problems and you sound like you are happy about it, thats sad you should not rejoice in your peoples misery.
there is nothing to rejoice about cholera outbreaks and starvation in Zimbabwe.

and Ghana is performing at 100% of it's potential right? a funny statement considering ghana is about to experience an oil boom.

Zimbabwe's inflation rate is 200 million % by the way. sounds good enough
