butterflylion: Ogbeni I do not worship an idea. I WORSHIP AN EXPERIENCE! Let the difference echo in your empty head.
Do you actually believe in an eternal universe? You worship an idea Mr Olodo, a man made created idea . I understand the need to change it and give ìt some different meaning so that you can keep staying in the bubble of delusion. You worship a God idea that was invented by humans like 2000 years ago and passed down yet you are here blabbing. If begin to ask you questions about the nonsense you call an idea you'll start crying and baaing like a goat. |

butterflylion: I think you have a problem and it's really deep. Atheism is the rejection of God or gods and the rejection of their existence! It also asserts that there can never be sufficient proof of the existence of any God or gods (all I just typed is simply rejection of deification).
That being said an atheist can believe in anything else as long as it has nothing to do with God or gods.
Rejection of religion does not deny the existence of God because God came first before religion.
If some ideas about God are found in religion and you reject those ideas it's simply you rejecting an idea and not the diety behind the idea (Do you get it?).
If you reject the idea of reality of fatherhood does not mean you reject the idea of reality of your birth or pre-birth because without your birth or pre-birth idea or reality you would not be in the place to reject anything.
You are putting the cart before the horse. You sir know nothing! Give me the name of the God that came before religion. All religions have their concept and idea of God the people that invented the God ascribe to the God idea they invented. When talking about God or defining it you must go back to the definition as stated by people that started your religion. You can not show me any God that exist on its own without human input because all Gods are human ideas and inventions that is why we have different Gods and religions. All created by humans. I'll only take you seriously only when you show me a God that exist on its own without human input. You'll have to show me what the God alone did to make people believe in it and the belief system the God alone created. |

KingEbukasBlog: Lol na dalaman be that . With his usual mantra 
Most of the beliefs he religiously adheres to are man made ideas . Examples :
-Materialism -Naturalism
These are ideas avowed by mostly atheists and they are man made ideas which began with ancient hedonists . He believes the universe is eternal , isn't that a man made idea ? Lol . Maybe the gods revealed that to him .  Your God Jesus and his stories, theology and religion was invented by men about 2000 year ago and you are hear yarning dust. |

butterflylion: I was sleeping and thought I was dreaming when I saw butterflies and lions all landing around me and telling me to wake up and that someone needs me so I wake up and check Nairaland and see where a group of confused pathetic solace seeking atheists are trying to console themselves that they should not pity themselves or feel bad about their current godless predicament.
They have blamed whites for bringing religion to Africa but also hail the whites for bringing atheism to Africa (I cannot just deal with the hypocrisy).
One even said God is a man made idea. Ask him to show us how and he will loose his tongue for sure.
The kind of turbulence in them is worse than that experienced by the Titanic if they need such gatherings to ease their pain.
Let us do a head count of them as they keep joining the party.  Show any God that exist without human input. Show us any God that exist on its own without humans creating and formulating stories about it, creating theology and culture and making other humans to accept it. Show me any God that did anything or created any belief system without the input of humans. Even the christian God idea you worship stared like 2000 year ago when humans decided to deitify a Jewish hippe that was killed, they wrote down stories about him decades after he died, created a theology and religion after him and passed it down till it got to you. There is nothing you know about Jesus that you got from any Jesus God. Everything you know about Jesus you know because humans invented the stories, theology , religion and passed it down. When you show a God doing anything on its own without human input then I'll begin to grant that you have an idea of what you are talking about. |

Proudgorgeousga: To the religiotards it may concern;
Atheism
noun (uncountable)
1. (narrowly) Belief that no deities exist (sometimes including rejection of other religious beliefs).
2. (broadly) Rejection of belief that any deities exist (with or without a belief that no deities exist).
3. (very broadly) Absence of belief that any deities exist (including absence of the concept of deities).
4. (loosely) Absence of belief in a particular deity, pantheon, or religious doctrine (notwithstanding belief in other deities) Our resident regurgitator has now narrowed the definition of God as the elusive first mover. Now atheism is the rejection of deification. Always evolving and changing his positions as he goes. |

The hypocrisy never ends! Is your religion not that of the white man? It's inventors , those that wrote down the stories and create the theology and tradition were white men so what the he'll are you talking about? Even the Jesus pictures you have in your homes is that of a white man. |

I laughed when one of them said "atheism is where the truth is" More like saying "Nothing is where the truth is"
Its quite funny Is your religion and God not a man made entity? You were indoctrinated and made to believe in the formulated stories of some dead Jewish hippe who was later dietified and elevated as God by his followers whom later wrote fictitious and mythological stories about him many many decades after he died and you are here yarning in dust. |

KingEbukasBlog: How many times will you people open this useless threads to tell these boring stories ??
Atheism does not question religious beliefs , religious books or religious doctrines or reject religion so I don't get why stories here are centered on religion
Questioning religious beliefs does not anyone an atheist . Denying the existence of a transcendent creator of the universe does not even make you an atheist.
What makes you an atheist is when you reject deification or when you dont see anything -abstract or concrete - as a god .
99 percent Nigerian "atheists" are very ignorant and expect more stories based on their ignorance here .
cc : felixomor , butterflylion spacetacular, Even you have started running away from your position on God. Your definition of atheism is always changing. It's now the rejection of deification.  |

Antiparticle: I used to think of atheists as defiant people who for some unclear reason were blinded from seeing the truth. I also thought they were stubborn, as they never bought my Bible-driven arguments and explanations that I used to think were air-tight and well thought-out.
Unbeknownst to me the first cracks in my faith started probably started around 12 years ago when I allowed myself to deeply question everything in the Bible, no holds barred; my thinking was that this would help my faith grow deeper and know God more. My faith mostly grew stronger for the next seven years, but apparently the faint fault lines in my faith were also growing.
The fault lines started to become more visible five years ago when I started asking questions about if miracles still happened today. And over time I started asking if God still intervened in the world today. And then I started asking if every line of the Bible was true. And then I started questioning the resurrection, and the virgin birth, and ...
I was at an airport one day, two and half years ago, and it suddenly hit me -- I had been fooled all along. Chai! The next six weeks were sad and depressing! I couldn't believe that I had believed in this falsity for so long. It took a good nine months before I could begin to really talk about it. I had to again process what it means to be human. I once again felt like an adolescent learning how the world works.
This was when I started to see the sense in all the arguments and defiant questions that my atheist friends used to ask. It took me like 8 years to finally accept that God is a man made idea and creation and that my religion was just the same like that of the others (nothing different or special about it). I became depressed for reasons I couldn't explain. I felt terrible about myself. I regretted ever going to Europe to study, hated Nairaland . I truly wanted God tp be real but I those questions and the reality kept starring at me in my face. With the veil off my eyes I saw that the church was just a normal assembly of humans. There is nothing that goes out outside the church that doesn't go on inside the church. NOTHINH AT ALL. All the adultery and fornication that goes on outside the church also go on inside the church, all the fraud, deceit, lies, pretence, violence, marital issuesetc that were going on outside the church were also going on inside the church. I fully realized that nobody holy pass. The pastors were no different ftom me or any other person in reality. We are all humans groping in the dark and trying to find our ways when it comes to the issue of morality and uprightness. I realized that I was a better human being than most of the people I held or put on a high pedestal because of my religious beliefs. After a while I settled in accepted atheism and became an unapologetic athiest. |

hopefulLandlord: I call it delusion, self-importance and to put it more bluntly, condescending attitude, it makes the adherents feel "special" to "God" (whichever one they serve); God set them apart to have that "experience" which gave them their "salvation" while he left people like the irreligious/atheist/other religion to destruction/ mundane life, so this "special" person now takes it upon his/herself to convince someone "Less special" about his experiences
They don't care about MY personal experiences with a godless universe, or MY personal experiences with superstitious thinking being realized to be just that. Only "*insert religion/god here* personal experiences" matter. Sure it's a bubble of delusion. How else will you remain in any religion or believe in the God the religion promotes if it doesn't make you feel special and above the others? They see you as unclean and lost goats because you don't share their beliefs. It's just a ridiculous bubble of delusion. |

hopefulLandlord: Dalaman, you basically saw the atheists/irreligious/nominal Christians as people who "haven't seen the light" which you were seeing or should I say "thought you were seeing"
nice one and its interesting that most theists presently have the same opinion of atheists, "if only God showed them the light" "if only he experiences Jesus for a moment" Sure. If only they could see and experince what we are seeing and experiencing. But then muslims say that to christians and christians say that to muslims as well. Every religion says that to another. If only you see the light of our religion you'll leave yours and join ours. I call it a bubble. |

As a christian I never knew what it meant to be an atheist. How could someone say there was no God? How can anybody say that my sweet Jesus isn't real? Never personally sat down and thought about my religious beliefs and the concept of God at all. I was indoctrinated and I believed 1000000%. I grew up in a very conservative christian home, so everything I heard and was taught were true. Never questioned them, in fact I couldn't question them. I accepted everything and it became my reality.
The first time I met an atheist was like 10 years ago in Germany. It was surreal. I thought I met the "devil". The guy was so confident and kept dismissing God as a man made imaginary idea. I was so scared of him and the words and thoughts that were coming out of his mouth. I wished God will strike him with blindness. I hated him immediately but was more scared of him. I quickly ran away after listening to him for like 15 minutes.
We meet again after some days and he was at it again. Spewing his atheistic stuff. After a while I became friends with some of the Germans and realized that most of them were irreligious/ athiest. Non of them believed in God they way I did. Even those of them that believed in God had very different conception of who and what God is to them. We discuss religion sometimes and I got to realize that most of them were the same. It didnt bother me much since they were everywhere. I just prayed and hoped that God will touch them and show them his "light". I was a bit taken aback when I met black Germans that were athiest and irreligious then, some of my lectures were black Germans and were athiest. Some few friends in school as well. For some reason I felt I could give whites a pass for being athiest and irreligious but blacks? It didn't sit well with me that blacks were also athiest/irreligious because most of them were Africans like me whose parents or grand parents were from Ghana and Cameroun but were born there. I later had to accept them because they were everywhere. Only me and my few Nigerian and other African friends belived in God in the traditional way. I later met and became friends with some American soldiers that also believed in God the way I did(Traditionally). They were stationed in the city I was studying. They had a big military base there. Those Americans soldiers were the only whites that believed in God the way I did. Most of the Germans I knew personally were either athiest/irreligious or adherents of the Grill message. Very few were traditional christians like me. The church I attended then was an African church. After a while I settled in and had to accept things the way they were.
Then came nairaland. The first thing that made me start to think about the existence of God was the constant debates btw the christians and Muslims here. There was no Islamic section then and there were also very few athiest back then . I think there were only like 5 atheist if I could remember correctly(Seun, Kag, Nnfern, Mazaje, Jagunlabi). The debates were only btw christians and Muslims and also btw catholics and anti catholic protestants. The debates were always very hot and intense. I used to read for a while before I later registered .Those debates between the muslims and Christains made me to think about God's existence for the very first time in my life. I Never knew the bible had any flaws until the muslims pointed so many of them out. I refused to accept that they were flaws, I'll rather lie to my self than accept them. The muslims also did the same. When christians point out the flaws in the Koran, they also refused to accept, they'll twist, lie and offer the fringe of all explanations in order to explain it away. It was the same thing the christians were doing. The few athiest that were here kept pointing that out.
Then later the number of athiest picked up a bit and the arguments/debates started. Athiest started creating topics instead of just chipping in when muslims and christians were on each other's necks. The debates continued and I ended up changing my mind and doing away with my childhood indoctrination. |
