I went through his twitter page . He looks like a uxorious man , that's a good thing . And has found happiness and a reason to live with Christ . That's the best thing .

While atheism which leads to nihilism gives you myriads of reasons why life is meaningless and humans should go extinct .

KingEbukasBlog:


He believes evolution refutes God and that since there is no God (atheism) we have been ingrained by nature through evolution with the need to survive . So to him , survival is an illusion , because its going to end with death at the end of it all . So why bother ? Let's just die off and go extinct , life is meaningless and purposeless .

And you still want me to explain how atheism leads to nihilism The answer is right there staring at you . These are oblique suicidal thoughts if you ask me sir .



How did this elude you bro ?

Keep trying to find excuses for your for god... This is an excerpt from a news article...
"Prolonged dry spells in five of the nine provinces of Zambia sharply reduced yields and cereal production."
U see that? Prolonged dry spells. It's not even peculiar to Zambia. Other south African countries are in danger of this because of climate change...
And the hungry people are not the cause of government's incompetence they are the victims... If god wouldn't protect his people from these things, then why believe in him
And what about the people who actually vote for godly people but the people they voted don't win.... And how do u know godly people... Seems we don't have godly people in Nigeria then

Alleinad:
Just revisited this post and my opinions haven't changed in all this time.

randomperson:

Wait.... So these causes u have listed absolve god of the responsibility to provide for them??
BTW ... Having a population of farmers doesn't make a country immune to famine... The drought of 2001-02 is a major reason why there is a serious food deficit..
And as I said earlier, these causes do not absolve god of responsibility... The fact still remains Zambians are starving to death while their god promised them provision

In short, no reasonable or proper scientist can possibly believe in God. If they do, as a consequence of their scientific inquiries, then they are not proper scientists.

S/eun, please just go to school already. You are an embarrassment to thinking entrepreneurs.

Anti clerical ideas from France eroded the influence of the church. Never said it was an atheist country at all. The church only had its influence reduced it was never an atheist country don't even try to spew that nonsense.

But it is not a lie na, even Ebuka agrees with me. Ebuka don't you?

Uruguay was formerly an atheist nation according to who?

Uruguay's secularization began with the relatively minor role of the church in the colonial era, compared with other parts of the Spanish Empire. The small numbers of Uruguay's Indians and their fierce resistance to proselytism reduced the influence of the ecclesiastical authorities.[94]

After independence, anti-clerical ideas spread to Uruguay, particularly from France, further eroding the influence of the church.

It's majority caused by famine.... And whatever the cause, it's definitely not caused by the people who have to scavenge for food

dalaman:


What is this nonsense. There are more theist than athiests in Uruguay. The politics of Uruguay has nothing to do with his atheism because Uruguay is a secular country that has a higher percentage of theist compared to athiest. It's better to keep quiet than go about insinuating falsehood and lies. The man said he's an athiests and that's all to it.

Uruguay has no official religion; church and state are officially separated,[19] and religious freedom is guaranteed. A 2008 survey by the INE of Uruguay showed Catholicism as the main religion, with 45.7% of the population; 9.0% are non-Catholic Christians, 0.6% are Animists or Umbandists (an Afro-Brazilian religion), and 0.4% Jewish. 30.1% reported believing in a god, but not belonging to any religion, while 14% were Atheist or Agnostic.[91] Among the sizeable Armenian community in Montevideo, the dominant religion is Christianity, specifically Armenian Apostolic.[92]

Political observers consider Uruguay the most secular country in the Americas.[93] Uruguay's secularization began with the relatively minor role of the church in the colonial era, compared with other parts of the Spanish Empire. The small numbers of Uruguay's Indians and their fierce resistance to proselytism reduced the influence of the ecclesiastical authorities.[94]

After independence, anti-clerical ideas spread to Uruguay, particularly from France, further eroding the influence of the church.[95] In 1837, civil marriage was recognized and in 1861 the state took over the running of public cemeteries. In 1907, divorce was legalized and in 1909, all religious instruction was banned from state schools.[94] Under the influence of the innovative Colorado reformer José Batlle y Ordóñez (1903–1911), complete separation of church and state was introduced with the new constitution of 1917.[94]

No .. But I happen to read the news and as a person with a conscience, news that some people are starving to death is unforgettable for me

Christianity is 'not' a religion.

randomperson:

You don't learn and when I raise points to which you don't have a response, you disappear into thin air
U are focusing on the Christians who have money and ignoring the fact that Christianity is the most widely practiced religion in the world
U also ignore the fact that the poorest countries are Christian dominated, in fact Christians make up the bulk of the population starving to death. . in Zambia for example, which BTW is about 95% Christianity and has Christianity as it's official religion, human beings, Christians are competing with monkeys and baboons for nuts in order not to starve to death. .. These are people told by their god not to worry that he will provide for them.
