Yeah,God's presence is in that church. Who says God doesn't respond to stimuli? This God like better tin o! Chai! Kumbaya,halleluya!

This reminds of my obsession to put on weight when I was around 17-18.Then I was hovering around 43-45kg..sigh.My obsession with adding body mass pushed me into body building.Today,i'm hovering around 118-120kgs. My new obsession now is hitting a 150kg !Almost impossible without going on the juice but we'll see.
So anyways,@OP,you can try body building with all the accompanying nutrition regimen and supplements.#Just saying

And for the record,God was the first abortionist. Ripping babies out of their mothers wombs & dashing babies against rocks. Just so you know

.

Fulaman198: I don't generalise nor am I an ethnic bigot like you. So you think it's fine for a man to forcefully de-virginize a woman though rape?

A woman's place is not in the kitchen. It is where she wants it to be. You are selfish because you think only one way is the right way. The Bible was written by men, not one woman. So naturally, it is a very sexist book towards women.

You dey mind dem? Very selfish & inconsiderate set of people. See how they craftily evaded the story of the woman that died because some hospital chose to enforce some archaic belief over saving a life. Instead,they insist on their grasping at straws even when it's obvious they've been floored..sigh

Image123: Do you mind him? Evidently, he has forgotten that people also die in abortions and even normal and legal surgeries too. Outrage ko, outage ni.

Spoken like a true Christian. Very Christlike

This is what happens when faith takes the place of reason,beautiful people die & lives are lost unnecessarily...

Dentist's death sparks outrage, parents demand international probe

The death of an Indian dentist in Ireland, whose life could have been saved through an abortion, on Thursday sparked outrage in India with political parties terming it as a violation of human rights while her parents demanded an international probe.

The Delhi Catholic Archdiocese said the mother's life should not have been risked though abortion was a complete no for them
31-year-old Savita Halappanavar died in Ireland last month from blood poisoning after doctors allegedly refused to terminate her 17 week long pregnancy, telling her that "this is a Catholic country".

"In a case when a mother's life is in danger, save her life and while saving the mother if something happens to the baby in the womb then no doctor or mother should be held responsible as their intention was to save a life and not to end a life.

"It is important that the intention should be to save the life," Rev Fr Dominique Imanuel, Spokesperson of Delhi Catholic Archdiocese, said.

Halappanavar's parents demanded an "international probe" and said Irish law on abortion should be changed.

"Only following rules, what about humanity? They killed my daughter to save a foetus. Only a mother knows the pain," said Halappanavar's mother, while her father urged the government to act accordingly.

Political parties termed it a violation of human rights and demanded the government to direct External Affairs Ministry to ask Irish government to act on the issue and ensure justice to the family.

Senior CPI(M) leader Brinda Karat described the incident as a "crime" and sought government's intervention.

"We should lodge a very strong protest with the Irish authorities as they are responsible for committing a crime which resulted in loss of a human life," Karat said.

"It was a medical emergency and they preferred to sacrifice the young woman's life rather than to do something which have gone against their religious belief," she said.

Senior BJP leader Mukthar Abbas Naqvi said BJP Mahila Morcha chief Smriti Irani has written a letter to External Affair Minister Salman Khurshid on this issue.

The death of Halappanavar has reopened the long and continuing public debate on the issue of abortion and the views of Catholic church, said John Dayal, Member of National Integration Council of India and former president of All India Catholic Union.

He said the Catholic teachings on abortion and for that matter other pro-life issues were clear.

"The church opposes abortions as the foetus is a human life. Abortions have been often used as a lazy solution to population control, teenage pregnancies and such like," he said.

Ireland Has Performed Its First-Ever Legal Abortion, And It Saved A Dying Woman’s Life

"Ireland Has Performed Its First-Ever Legal Abortion, And It Saved A Dying Woman’s Life"
The first legal abortion in an Irish hospital has been carried out in Dublin, the Irish Times confirmed on Friday. It represents the first pregnancy termination under Ireland’s historic new abortion law, which slightly relaxed the country’s total ban to allow for legal abortions in cases when it’s necessary to preserve a woman’s life.
Before Ireland’s prime minister approved the new law in July, the country’s abortion laws had not been updated since 1867. Now, there are 25 Irish hospitals that are authorized to perform legal abortions in life-threatening cases without worrying about legal repercussions.
The National Maternity Hospital in Dublin carried out the pregnancy termination for a dying woman whose membrane had ruptured for more than 24 hours. She ran a high risk of sepsis, and her 18-week twin fetuses had no chance of survival outside of the womb. Doctors said her case bore many similarities to that of Savita Halappanavar, a 31-year-old woman who died after being denied an emergency abortion in an Irish Catholic hospital last year. Halappanavar developed sepsis after she began to miscarry, but doctors wouldn’t terminate her doomed pregnancy until the fetal heartbeat had officially stopped three days later — and by that time, it was too late.
The Irish Times reports that in contrast to Halappanavar, the woman who received a legal abortion this month “has made a good recovery after receiving antibiotic treatment and undergoing the termination a number of weeks ago.”
Ireland’s new abortion law was spurred by Halappanavar’s tragic death, which sparked a global controversy. Reproductive rights activists vowed that an individual would “never again” be denied the life-saving medical care that could avert this type of tragedy. But even though Ireland has slightly relaxed its stringent abortion law to successfully avert another Savita, a handful of other conservative Catholic countries still impose total bans on the procedure. Following Halpannavar’s death, similar controversies have unfolded in El Salvador and Chile.
The Guttmacher Institute’s research has found that harsh bans on abortion don’t actually lower abortion rates. Instead, they simply encourage women to risk their lives to end a pregnancy illegally. An estimated 47,000 women around the world die each year from unsafe abortions — and that figure doesn’t include women like Halpannavar who die from pregnancy-related complications that an abortion could have averted.

Moral of the story-Reason will always triumph over faith.You pro-lifers are simply wasting your time since you all fail to see the folly in your arguments

You're all wrong. Shintoism is the only way & Shin tao[i][/i] is his messenger. You'll remember this post some day.
@op i feel you though. My mum is really unhappy with my godless state. Always appealing to me through,cajoling,emotional blackmails,coaxing etc. I just told her my mind is made up,no going back. She still thinks it's a phase that'll pass..sigh.
Anyways its 2014 & i'm looking for a new religion. Thus,my chart for clarification

2sexy.us:
bros, na laff I dey laff o.

The God I know wouldn't save you when he has given you a way to save yourself. If you like fast for 365 days, he wont!

Sometimes, people can find solution to their problems and solve whatever is plaguing them, but the want God to come from heaven to do it... My brother, God does not work that way.

Why doesn't God put food in your mouth? He knows you have hands and can feed yourselve.

So what exactly are God's responsibilities? Is it just to sit his obese behind on his gold plaited throne & watch his creations starve to death?This God must be one heck of a lazy God

100 days fasting? Pray tell,what good will this do besides harming yourselves? Nigerians ooh chai! Make una try dey give una self brain na. Don't wheel in your stvpidity into 2014. Na beg i dey beg una

Again..nothing new here. Same old story..sigh

Nothing new here. Same ole,same ole

Well dayum!

tpia@:
any income be it salary or business fueled, is subject to whatever factors apply at any given point in time.

as such, NOBODY is exempt from what the op is describing.


armed robbers and yahoo yahoo/419ers also go broke, my point is money is not an endless supply even if you print it yourself.

even teachers and civil servants have unpaid salaries going on three to six months or more, companies go broke, business doesnt always move, so lets try to post with sense every now and then, this level of illiteracy and ignorance is starting to seem normal with nigerians, didnt use to be so.

Tpia,the gift that keeps on giving

Here we go again.The abortion debate rages on & doesn't seem likely to end anytime soon.Although it's interesting to see the 'abortion should never be carried out under any circumstance' crew suddenly softening up and offering circumstances when it is permissible..hmm interesting.Here's some perspective for you folks

9. Laws against abortion do not stop abortion; they simply make it less safe. The number of women who get abortions does not change when it goes from being legal to illegal, or vice versa. The only thing that changes is more women die. Every year, 78,000 women die from unsafe abortions.

8. If people want to stop abortion, they should turn to methods that do work. These include comprehensive sex education and safe, affordable contraceptives. Unfortunately, as illogical as it sounds, the people who are most against abortion are also often most against these preventative measures. If they truly wanted to reduce the number of abortions that occur, they would embrace these methods.

7. Religious ideology is no foundation for any law. Freedom of religion is guaranteed to every citizen; so why would the beliefs and values of one religion mandate actual laws for all citizens? It would be unfair, unjust and immoral. We do not have laws against eating fish, nor do we have laws that declare it is legal to sell one’s daughter, rap3 someone, or keep a person as a slave—all things that are promoted in religious text.

6. Reproductive restrictions do not end with abortion. Many people also argue that contraception itself is wrong—another mainly-religious philosophy—and will deny women the protection they need based on this belief. There are legislative acts that allow actual pharmacists to deny women their birth control because of their beliefs; does this not violate the Hippocratic Oath, especially if thousands of women are on birth control because their very lives depend on it (see #2)? Also, since it is my belief that men should not rape women, if I were a pharmacist, would I have a right to deny a man his Viagra just in case he uses it to rap3? You never know.

5. Most people who are against abortion will never even become pregnant. If a law would never, in any circumstance, apply to a man, a man creating that law is preposterous. It is akin to men creating laws that ban women from voting, owning property, or showing skin in public—only much more deadly.

4. Women who are rap3d or victims of inc3st should not be forced to carry out a pregnancy. Odds are that 1 in 3 women will be victims of sexual violence in her lifetime. Does this mean that 33% of all women should be forced to carry out a pregnancy from this violation? Considering how many people are killed during childbirth (see #2), should we allow this further risk to endured on top of what has already been done?

Many would argue that these women could endure the pregnancy, spending nearly a year of her life simply re-living the rap3 and its effects over and over again, to give up a baby at the end of it for adoption. However, we all are aware of the fact that there are millions of unwanted children awaiting adoption as we speak who remain unclaimed; in fact, UNICEF estimates that there are 210 million orphans in the world right now. If they have no one willing to be their parent or guardian, why would another baby have a better chance?

My theory is that people who spend so much time, energy, and money on anti-abortion campaigns should instead spend it on the precious children they say need saving so much—the ones who are alive and parentless. Imagine if all the funds spent on all those billboards and flyers and campaigns were instead either spent adopting or donating to places that are overrun with orphaned children… perhaps some actual credibility would be given to these people who claim to love children so much.

3. Reproductive choice can be the only thing that stands between a woman and poverty. There is a reason that the 1 billion poorest people on the planet are female. In sub-Saharan Africa and west Asia, women typically have five to six children, which leaves them powerless to provide for not only their own families, but themselves.

2. Reproductive choice can be the only thing that stands between a woman and DEATH. Women who face deadly consequences of a pregnancy deserve to choose to live. Teen girls, whose bodies are not yet ready for childbirth, are five times more likely to die. Not only do 70,000 girls ages 15-19 die each year from pregnancy and childbirth, but the babies that do survive have a 60% higher chance of dying as well.

1. Doctors, not governments, should always be the people to make medical recommendations and opinions. Would you allow the government to tell you if you could have a kidney transplant or a blood transfusion? Of course not. The fact that we even consider, let alone allow, governments to regulate a medical procedure is both illogical and foolish.

El Rufai,finally bringing the plane to a halt was based on the training of the pilot in circumstances of such nature. Not some god somewhere. God does not fly planes,even you should know that..sigh

solomon111: These are the kinds of morøns governing the affairs of african nations.
No wonder,the continent is still in the dark ages.

Can't argue with that. Travails of the black man..sigh

Op take your phone to God. Oh you didn't know God now repairs fones & cleanses it of demonic spirits? Well now you know

highyo: Just one message I have for all christains in the house. Try to remain a church member and involve in only what has comanded us, like, preaching to sinners, involving in God's work and other christ commandment.

Let us try to remain where we are if we do not recieve any special call from God.

Who is a sinner?

Lmao @all4naija. Your hatred for everything SA though

And as for atheists anger..need i say more?

Joshthefirst: reality is a God who does things his own way but chooses to be good, whom people have seen and encountered and in whom people believe. A God who is a judge and judges and condemns everyone guilty of breaking the law(how many times will this be said? Are you hard of hearing?), including those who conveniently deny his existence inspite of glaring evidence, who deny truth because of hypocrisy, who carry out lawlessness foolishly and have "sex anyhow"(you brought this up, not me) without thinking of repercussions, who claim living things come from non-living and make many other pathetic claims to justify their lawless position. Most of whom are surprisingly angry at a God they don't believe exists., etc, etc.

'Who conveniently deny his existence in spite of glaring evidence'. Ho ho ho this has got to be the dumbest comment yet since Sarah Palin called Africa a country. Pray tell,what evidence is this you speak about? I sincerely hope you will not go the creation route,i believe you're smarter than that

israel007: They should just scratch it. Policy is too unfriendly.

Shocks me when I read people here say this is good for us now as it would create jobs. 'Tokumbo' car saless generate more jobs. How many people would be selling the small qty of cars they would assemble? How many people would th plants employ? Better still: how mmany illiterates would be employ.

This policy is just not it. May be good but its not coming at the right time

The tariff introduction should be gradual but not scrapped in its entirety. We can't continue to think of the pain in the short run,rather the benefits in the long term. That's how those countries we so much love to buy their used cars from got to where the are today

Joshthefirst: foolishness sir, is also not bliss. Please stop denying reality and being biased and blind.

And what is this reality you love to yap about?
A big daddy in the sky in whom most people believe, but no one has seen. He's a really nice guy unless you fail to submit to his will and/or doubt his existence, because then he will punish you forever. He's also kind of nazi about who you have sex with & when you have it.
Yeah seems legit

The Catholics vs the Pentecostals vs the Pagan crew

Joshthefirst: yeah yeah. You know it is.

Ignorance is not bliss. Please educate yourself

Sunglow: THANK GOD YOU NOTICED THAT ITS ONLY THE Bible that has records of Jesus-Reason;The bible is the ONLY ONE TRUE BOOK YOU CAN KNOW ABOUT GOD,AND JESUS.GOD IS NOT THE AUTHOR OF CONFUSSION,SO HE MADE IT EASY FOR ALL OF US AND COMPLIED THE WHOLE BODY OF TRUTH ABOUT HIM AND HIS KINGDOM IN THE BIBLE.NO OTHER BOOK OUTSIDE THE BIBLE WILL REVEAL THIS TRUTHS TO YOU.SO MY BRODA SHINE YOUR EYES AND KNIW THE TRUTH!!!!!!GOD LOVES YOU PEACE

Dude,your bible is nothing but a compendium of Jewish fables written by slave owning men & their ancient lifestyles which should have no bearing on the lives of any right thinking person in the 21st century.A book about talking donkeys,talking snakes,a man walking on water,a man living in the belly of a fish for three days,a man dividing the sea,a virgin impregnated by god,feeding 5000 with 5 loaves of bread & 12 baskets of fish,genocide,slavery,ripping pregnant women open,dashing babies against rocks,human sacrifice & many more inanities is what you want me to accept as the TRUTH about your god? No thanks,I'd sooner read a Harry Potter novel

This movies are rated 18+. So what's the fuss? No one will be forced to watch at gun point.

kolidave: Wetin you dey talk na. The guy walk am finish na. nothing was under cos a girl swam across and under him. What me I can deduce from criss angel is that he's using dome sort of trick or the devil is just helping him. Remember Pharoah in the Bible did the same thing Moses did in the bible through magic. So Abeg make nobody compare criss angel to my Jesus oooo.

Yeah because Dynamo has the gift to perform amazing stunts then it must be of the devil(who's this devil anyways)..smh. And to think this is someone we can see.Jesus on the other hand was just an ordinary Jew (who may or may not have existed) raised above his station by some other Jewish & Roman storytellers. Isn't it kinda odd that there were no other records of the great feats of Jesus outside the biblical stories we've been made to believe?

NativeBoy: There is nothing dubious about Hitler's religious views. You can read all about it the works on his biographers and historians. Anyone who denies Hitler was an atheist is just in denial.

As for Stalin & co. Let me help you here since it is obvious as a typical christian,you barely read your bible let alone other research materials..
It is a common talking point amongst Christians to attribute the horrors committed by infamous world leaders to atheism, and many times we are ill-equipped to refute those erroneous claims. In fact, last year, an Anglican Archbishop named Peter Jensen told his Australian congregation that atheism is not the rational philosophy that it claims to be. He stated, "Last century we tried godlessness on a grand scale and the effects were devastating: Nazism, Stalinism, Pol Pot-ery, mass murder, abortion and broken relationships - all promoted by state-imposed atheism…the illusion that we can build a better life without God." He further stated, "It's about our determination as human beings to have our own way, to make our own rules, to live our own lives, unfettered by the rule of God and the right of God to rule over us…What we're really seeing, once more [is] an example of the contest between human beings and God over who rules the world."

Atheist Foundation president David Nicholls says the comments are an act of desperation by the church. Personally, I think "desperation" is an understatement of epic proportions. There are so many things wrong with Jensen's statements that I had to sit here and stare at my screen for quite a while before I even found a starting point. I gave considerable thought to expounding on the sheer arrogance that a god rules the world regardless of whether or not anyone actually believes in one, the utterly ridiculous notion of a struggle between god and man, or their dogma about not being able to achieve peace, happiness and harmony in our society without their god. However, time being at a premium today, I decided to a different route.

First of all, there is no such thing as state-imposed atheism. A state can ban religion, but it cannot ban atheism because it is not a belief, a faith, a set of doctrines or dogmas and cannot be imposed on anybody. Atheism is an absence of belief, and you cannot ban something that does not exist. I have heard the argument so many times from believers who think that atheism is a belief. They compare it to a religion. They say it takes faith. They accuse us of hating god. Believers really need to find another line of fire, as all of these arguments only serve to make them look like complete idiots, which is unnecessary, as many believers are otherwise intelligent individuals. I will not bother to extrapolate the reasons why these are illegitimate arguments, as many of you already know the details. Those of you who don't can look them up yourselves, and perhaps better arm yourselves for the times when you are confronted by theists who offer them up.

Today, though, we are going to examine Jensen's claims about Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Mass Murder and Broken Relationships. We'll start with the people he mentioned, and, as far as I'm aware, none of them said "I don't believe in god, therefore I will slaughter lots of innocent people". Let's start with Adolf Hitler…

On Adolf Hitler…

Christians have been trying to discredit Hitler's faith for decades, turning their eyes away from history books. From the earliest formation of the Nazi party he expressed his Christian support to the German citizenry and soldiers. He was baptized as Roman Catholic in Austria, attended a monastery school and was a communicant and an altar boy in the Catholic Church. He was confirmed as a "soldier of Christ" and his goal was to become a priest. He was never excommunicated or condemned and the church had stated that he was "Avenging for God" in attacking the Jews for they deemed the Semites the killers of Jesus. Look it up…

Hitler was given veto power over whom the pope could appoint as a bishop in Germany and forged a treaty whereas the National Socialist state was officially recognized by the Catholic Church. In a letter to the Nazi party, he wrote "…this treaty shows the whole world clearly and unequivocally that the assertion that National Socialism is hostile to religion is a lie."

He allied with Pope Pius in converting German society and made a deal with the church whereas the church absorbed Nazi ideals and preached them as part of their sermons, and in turn, Hitler placed Catholic teachings in public education. This lead to Hitler enacting doctrines of the Church as law. He outlawed all abortion, raged a death war on all homosexuals, and demanded corporal punishment in schools and home.

He was quoted as stating, "The National Socialist State professes its allegiance to positive Christianity. It will be its honest endeavor to protect both the great Christian Confessions in their rights, to secure them from interference with their doctrines (Lehren), and in their duties to constitute a harmony with the views and the exigencies of the State of today…Providence has caused me to be Catholic, and I know therefore how to handle this Church."

In fact, the Holocaust grew out of Hitler's Christian education due mainly to Jews having an inferior status in Christian Austria and Germany. The Christians there blamed the Jews for the killing of Jesus and the hatred that Hitler fostered against Jewish people began from the preaching of Catholic priests and Protestant ministers throughout Germany. It is well known that Martin Luther held a livid hatred for Jews and their religion. Luther wrote a book titled "On the Jews and their Lies" which set the standard for Jewish hatred all the way up to World War 2. Hitler, of course, expressed a great admiration for Luther.

The Nazis began to control schools insisting that Christianity was taught. They included anti-Semitic Christian writings in textbooks and were not removed from Christian doctrines until 1961. Nazi soldiers wore religious symbols and placed religious sayings on military gear. The official army belt buckle read "God With Us". They got sprinkled with holy water and listened to Catholic sermons before going out on maneuvers. The Nazis had a secret service called the "SS Reich" that would act as spies on the dealings of other citizens and if anyone was suspected of heresy they would be prosecuted.

Here are a few quotes from Hitler:

"We were convinced that the people needs and requires this faith. We have therefore undertaken the fight against the atheistic movement, and that not merely with a few theoretical declarations: we have stamped it out." -Adolf Hitler, in a speech in Berlin on 24 Oct. 1933

"My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth! In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was His fight for the world against the Jewish poison. To-day, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow my self to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice… And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly it is the distress that daily grows . For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people." -Adolf Hitler, in a speech on 12 April 1922

"Christianity could not content itself with building up its own altar; it was absolutely forced to undertake the destruction of the heathen altars. Only from this fanatical intolerance could its apodictic faith take form; this intolerance is, in fact, its absolute presupposition." -Adolf Hitler Mein Kampf

"Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord." -Adolf Hitler (Mein Kampf)

Had enough of Hitler? OK, let's move on to Stalin:

Joseph Stalin was raised to be a Catholic Priest and I remain curious as to why his Christianity is shoved aside in all these arguments. Yes, there is no way to get around the fact that in his early career, Stalin made a vast effort to rid Russia of religion, but that had nothing to do with atheism. It was the only way he knew to seize power of the country.

For generations the entire populace of Russia had been taught that the head of state was supposed to be close to god. At the time in question, the head of the church in Russia was a tyrant. The Russians were already disposed to servility and all Stalin did was exploit these two facts, and place himself in the position of god. Once Stalin was firmly seated in office, he revived the Russian Orthodox Church in order to intensify patriotic support for the war effort. Stalin was part of a council convened to elected a new church Patriarch. Then the Russian theological schools were opened, and thousands of churches began to function. Even the Moscow Theological Academy Seminary was re-opened, after being closed since 1918.

So, while Stalin was no peach, he was not exactly what you would call a died-in-the-wool atheist. He was more a secular minded religious opportunist, which is a personal character trait. He did not use atheism to gain control, but religious principles that were modified to fit his own, sick and twisted method of revolution.

What about Pol Pot?

Truly a monster, having killed some twenty-five percent of the entire population of Cambodia. Pol Pot targeted not just different religions, but education, science and medicine in his quest for total domination. Now, let's take a head count of atheists who are against education, science and medicine. Thought so… Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge were composed of Buddhists and Pol Pot was a Theravada Buddhist. He studied at a Buddhist monastery and then at a Catholic school for 8 years. Cambodia's communism was influenced by Theravada Buddhism.

Prince Norodom Sihanouk said, "Pol Pot does not believe in God but he thinks that heaven, destiny, wants him to guide Cambodia in the way he thinks it the best for Cambodia, that is to say, the worst. Pol Pot is mad, you know, like Hitler."

So, while Pol Pot was definitely not a Christian, he was also definitely not an Atheist.

Let's get on with some Mass Murder, shall we?

Add up the deaths that were attributed to Hitler, Stalin and Pot. Then round up for good measure. You can safely say that the number is staggering. Probably upwards of fifteen million. However, consider the following conflicts where the only differences between the opposing factions were and are religion:

Albigensian Crusade, 1208-49
Algeria, 1992-
Baha'is, 1848-54
Bosnia, 1992-95
Boxer Rebellion, 1899-1901
Christian Romans, 30-313 CE
Croatia, 1991-92
English Civil War, 1642-46
Holocaust, 1938-45
Huguenot Wars, 1562-1598
India, 1992-2002
India: Suttee & Thugs
Indo-Pakistani Partition, 1947
Iran, Islamic Republic, 1979-
Iraq, Shiites, 1991-92
Jews, 1348
Jonestown, 1978
Lebanon 1860 / 1975-92
Molucca Is., 1999-
Mongolia, 1937-39
Northern Ireland, 1974-98
Russian pogroms 1905-06 / 1917-22
St. Bartholemew Massacre, 1572
Shang China, ca. 1300-1050 BCE
Shimabara Revolt, Japan 1637-38
Sikh uprising, India, 1984-91
Spanish Inquisition, 1478-1834
Taiping Rebellion, 1850-64
Thirty Years War, 1618-48
Tudor England
Vietnam, 1800s
Witch Hunts, 1400-1800
Xhosa, 1857
Arab Outbreak, 7th Century CE
Arab-Israeli Wars, 1948-
Al Qaeda, 1993-
Crusades, 1095-1291
Dutch Revolt, 1566-1609
Nigeria, 1990s, 2000s

If you add up all of the lives that were lost in the name of one religion or another, you come up with a staggering figure that is in excess of eight-hundred-million. That's eight-hundred-million. An eight, followed by eight zeros. So, even if the believers who are uneducated enough to think that Hitler, Stalin and Pot were psychotic mass murderers because they thought these men were atheists, it is horrifically clear that religious murder wins out.

NativeBoy: Nice try. Hitler was an atheist. Do you aim to deceive by using quotes without knowing the context of the situation? Hitler made those statements in his attempt to manipulate.

Please see the below link:
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_views_of_Adolf_Hitler

Look don't waste your time trying to rewrite history. Hitler, Stalin, and Mao were atheists and between the three of them, they killed more people in the 20th century than in the first 19 centuries combined.

You're the one in denial here. Keep deluding yourself. Do you know what these signs meant? For the record..'God with us'. If this doesn't tell you anything then i feel for you. Your level of brainwashing is beyond redemption

Spoken like a true Muslim. Seriously though,what is it about religion that drives people to extremes? The level of brainwashing in religious circles is unparalleled
