Enuguboy4nsk:I know you did. Hawkers don't even earn 150k a month. if u are so sure why not join them. Ignorance is really a disease, one you are suffering from. Its folks like u that get scammed through pipe dreams. Who's d ode now? |

Enuguboy4nsk:You are out of tune with reality. Folks like u think of ideas, launch and make profit in your head alone. Why not join the train and hawk gala? Selling 500 galas a day is not exactly a walk in the park and the profit is no way near what u quoted. 300k profit a month? You really don't know what you're talking about. |

SirWere:What I've realised is that God doesn't have to prove himself to me in a physical manner, because He is not human. But like I said I'm working on dropping some of my logic and picking up some more faith. |

SirWere:U may not understand this but it's what I believe. He did by not doing. But like u rightly said we should do what is right by us and that doesn't affect others negatively. Thanks for ur words. |

Pidggin:So u did get my pm. I actually sent it because I was hoping maybe u'll be interested in hearing my story in private and get advice. There are things I can't discuss here. But I guess I was wrong. You can believe whatever u want ma'am. What matters is that I'm at peace with myself. Not what u think of me. And why wouldn't I reply ppl when I have the time to. They took the time to reply me. Its simple courtesy. |

wirinet:First off, I can't recollect me condemning Muslims. Secondly, I can't possibly explain why her tears moved me to u. U won't get it. A lot was discussed, but I can assure u it wasn't emotional blackmail. She tried to hide it. |

KingEbukasBlog:Thanks for the concern. But tbh I do laugh at u. The challenges I face are not in the same league as mood swings. Life is beyond ur little nice bubble. You may be blessed with a rosy life, but there are ppl on the other side of the divide. U need to understand that. Impulsive decision? Just stick to ur good life and enjoy it. Ppl face real troubles that u can't even imagine. |

Religion / 24 Hours As A Non Believer. by blacksahara: 8:43am On Aug 19, 2016 |
I made a post around the last minutes of yesterday about dropping my religion. https://www.nairaland.com/3297077/dumped-religion But I'm pleased to say that I've had a change of heart. Perhaps I should not have been quick to make the post. But what's done is done. I was up for the majority of the night thinking about my decision. I chatted with a guy that I know is an atheist bout my stance. But all through the night and up till this morning. I read through the arguments on various threads. Also a part of the doctrine of ufos. and some Bible chapters as well. For a long time I've stopped believing in the efficacy of prayer because it never seem to work for me. Early this morning, I called a friend of mine that has always urged me not to neglect prayer, she counselled me when I explained things to her although she's already aware of some of the things I go through. One thing I picked from her is that God doesn't need to prove himself to me. He doesn't need to do anything, He can though, but He doesn't have to. But it was when I heard her cry over the phone that my heart melted. After we hung up, I went on my knees and surprisingly I wasn't even interested in what I want God to do for me but for Him to forgive me. Im trying to make things right now and I do hope things get better. To the atheists that showed me support, it's much appreciated. and I still respect your belief. Pidggin whethere u believe it or not I do appreciate u. And to the others, not every account is a clone. And because ur life is rosy doesn't mean that it's same with others. Try to show empathy, you don't know what the person behind an account is going through in life. I know i appear as someone with indecision issues but I'm at peace with myself. Are my problems still there? They sure are. Do I see a solution in sight? No I don't. But I do have a hope of a better tomorrow. To all those that may be in the situation I was yesterday, I'll like you to know that even if no human knows what u are going through. There's someone that actually cares, He may not wave a magic wand to make them disappear, but you just have to trust. Another thing I've learnt is that I have to forego a bit of logic and apply more faith. Do i sound silly to myself? Perhaps. But it's the choice I've made and I'm happy with it. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Pidggin:Whether u rrespond or not is ur business. I did not contradict myself. Asking God (if He exists) to prove himself was a last option for me, because I really feel that if He does He won't let met go 'astray' but guess what He didn't. |
Religion / Re: I Dumped My Religion by blacksahara: 12:11am On Aug 19, 2016 |
Pidggin:Expose what exactly? That I've had my opinions for a long time? That was stated Believe me whether u like or not. This evening I told God that if He is actually real and can hear me, He should give me a sign. I'm hoping I'll get one but it doesn't look like nothing is coming. About emotion. Do u really expect me to be joyous at this point? |

Please note I'm not here to preach atheism. If you practise a religion, stick to it. If I can draw so much hate from ppl that don't even knw me, hell will have no fury like those that do. |

Pidggin:Am I angry bout ur comment? No. You think this is easy for me? All my relationships are as good as ruined and all you care about is to make senseless allegations? To begin with this is my first time in the religion section. I wish you don't go through what I'm going through right now. For ur info, it's not an easy process. I'm almost at tears right now. Nothing makes sense to me. |

Religion / I Dumped My Religion by blacksahara: 11:11pm On Aug 18, 2016 |
For years I've been contemplating the God issue vis a vis heaven, hell and the likes. But today I made the big step and now I'm an atheist. Do I feel peace within me? Nope, because I dread the moment it'll come out. Do I feel I've made the right choice? Tbh, I can't say for now. But I believe time will tell and prove me right. I know Christians alongside muslims will look to insult me, or convince me to change my mind. Please save it and respect my decision Just the same way I've decoded that I won't attack or insult any believer of faith. Everybody has the right to pick their choice. I was born into a strong Christian home but I don't feel God. If there is, then I think He's unfair and I'm not down for that. I don't know how to break it to my folks. I know y friends will take it as it is even tho they'll resent me for it. My relationship? I can kiss it goodbye, cos my girl will break it off with me the moment I tell her. I don't want to lose her neither do I want to keep a secret from her and mislead her. My family? My parents will probably disown me. My siblings may leave me and respect my decision, but I know my parents especially my mom will not. To the atheists in the house, how did u come out? How do u handle the stigmatisation? I know my chances of having a relationship is next to zero. I need advise because sooner or later I have to cone out. 1 Like |
