Communism product of Atheism??.
If Marx was an Atheist, does that mean His Ideas sprouted out of Atheism, . Karl Marx was a brilliant individual, he acknowledges the benefits of Religion but the downside as well.

If Communism sounds like Totalitarian cult, then you have no idea of what it really is or supposed to be. Spend some time reading Marx's Communism manifesto.

If all you're thinking are the Stalin, Hitler etc. Those had nothing to do with atheism. In fact they were Christians that grew - to have vendetta/problem with the Church and power it had over the people at that time. - doesn't this sound like you

You may then say, These guys were dangerous because of their Communist / Socialist / Marxist world view, which is underpinned by Atheism. It is the application of this world view, with no moral constraints that allowed them to overthrow systems of government and establish their personal ambition as the only “law”, so as to justify the murder of hundreds of millions who broke their law.

Atheism has nothing to do with that, the containment of personal inclinations toward self glorification and tyrannical oppression is a responsibility for us all. We can't lose our thinking capabilities as an alternative forgone for such. Which is what religion proposes.

The offer of Religion as a offer of certainty, as a offer of security, no matter how tempting it is, the offer of impermeable faith that can't give way; is an offer of something not worth having.

And if you think without religion, man has no Morality. I'll suggest you reassess your presupposition.

Isn't this what communism tried to achieve morality without religion it simply painted the ruling class as slave masters using religion to enslave the masses and they were fighting for humanity for freedom


Why shouldn't thieves be killed

Misogyny is an anomaly but inequality isn't misogyny it's a fact simple division of labour


If you have a problem list the religions that are better in your view I'm guessing Islam or Hinduism

another one on the loose


Totalitarian cults? Sounds more like Communism product of atheism

Enjoy your five hours of fame


*Pathetic*

Democracy is considered a good thing because it gives people freedom to express their ideas which in turn makes a more progressive country but there have been criticisms of democracy lots of people have stated that democracy always results in anarchy because people don't know how to use freedom with moderation

I'm looking at Nigeria and I'm just wondering

in 1960 we got democracy it took 7 years of freedom to launch Nigeria into a civil war, then we got brutal dictatorship from 1970-1999 there was a slight moment of freedom in between but it didn't last, during the dictatorships there was nothing like Boko haram tribalism was reduced Nigerians were actually united in hatred against the military



In 1999 we got democracy in 1999 we got Delta militant in 1999 we got Massob in 2000 we got Boko haram the Nigerian government is still fighting against this problems till date

Is Democracy bad for Nigeria maybe a ruthless dictatorship was our remedy maybe it was the only thing that stopped us from killing each other



What do you think?

Same Egypt that made the pyramids

That police officer is a celebrity explains all the hype he even supports Yahoo

Bacteriologist:
Of course. Except Allah is a false God and doesn't exist. So a Muslim is someone who believes in "a non existent deity" nothing more nothing less.

All forms of violence attributed to it shouldn't come from the ideology itself but rather it's crazy people

Bacteriologist:
This posts makes zero sense. An atheist is someone who totally lacks belief in the existence of any deity or God. Nothing more nothing less.

A Muslim is someone who believes in Allah nothing more nothing less

Obi1kenobi:
Even if I took your argument that the source of morality is religion (and it is certainly not), morality as you've defined it would still be a product of human choice. Before Western religions touched some climes, there have been religions where human ritual sacrifice for example would have been acceptable. Those cultures made a choice to adopt more"progressive" religions who find such things abominable. A choice still had to be made. They didn't adopt those moral codes because God threw down commandments from the heavens. The adopted those moral codes because they passed human judgement on what is fair and what is morally defensible.

To say people can't decide what is good and bad is a strange assertion. Human beings have incredible intellectual capacity. If even animals like dolphins, orcas and elephants are intelligent enough to work together in very tight knit pods and families caring for one another, raising each other's offspring, protecting other members from outside threats etc, it's a weird thing to think human beings cannot codify laws that seek to protect the interests of all members of a society. I guess the behavior of orcas is from their intense study of the bible.

Please learn how to conduct yourself if you want to post, stop using my mention for someone else see what he posted first

RuthlessLeader:
Christianity get's it's morality from society itself.

Again I ask what is the society you seem to have confused society for something it's not

RuthlessLeader:
And what about japan, a country with a high percentage of atheists and one of the lowest crime rates in the world?

LMFAO the same Japan that teamed up with Hitler almost a century ago?

RuthlessLeader:
Nobody controls society as well as common sense.

Peole can't simply decide on what is good and bad en masse(unless religion like christianity is involved).
Society decides that something is good when it benefits them or they think it does as a whole and that something is bad if it harms them or they think it does as a whole.



By the way, religion is a poor indicator of morality, I can bringout a lot of bible verses that have horrible laws that would get you imprisoned in today's society.

What is your source for morality? The society


Peole can't simply decide on what is good and bad en masse (unless religion like christianity is involved).


Society decides that something is good when it benefits them or they think it does as a whole and that something is bad if it harms them or they think it does as a whole.


Conclusion: Religions like Christianity is the source for your morality

RuthlessLeader:
Society.

common sense.

And who controls the society? Talk about common sense?

The society is not a person it's not a living organism it's the combination of people, if people can simply decide on what is good and bad doesn't that mean there's no morality



By the way most members of your society are Christians and Muslims

Seun:
The strongest ‘argument’ that religious apologists have against atheism is to define atheism as something that it is not. Strong atheism doesn’t mean having no morals. It means holding a belief that there is no God. Weak atheism means not holding a belief in God.

The most extreme atheists are people like Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris. The Communists don’t fight for atheism but for communism

Where did I mention communists?

RuthlessLeader:
This thread has been created before. It's always the same thing "atheists have no morals, blah blah blah".

All I have to do is find a few links that show the exact opposite and you will see these guys either keep quiet or start to talk outta their asses

. What is your source for morality?

adoyi8:
yes it is evil because
If you had read all my comment you will have seen where i explain how society makes my survival easier.
stealing can destroy the society which makes it evil but homosexuality is not evil because it does no harm to anybody

but politicians steal all the time people call it embezzlement policemen also collect bribes from drivers and I'm sure you haven't stolen

adoyi8:
I am an atheist and I believe that like any other living thing i have two basic functions: to survive and to reproduce. I know this because when i look at all the organs in my and other animals bodies, their function is either something that helps me survive or to reproduce.

Just wanna focus on this


If a thief steals to survive do you think it's evil?

.

Mr Freeze always rambling on and on about avoiding sentiments and emotions couldn't even provide a little evidence to backup his speech

Nigeria means Niger-area, so

The problem with moderate atheists < this as you might have guessed is a reaction to a post of opposite title


There are two branches of Atheism the weak and the strong


The weak- This type believes there is no god but believes in good and evil

Their phrase is 'live and let live' they believe morality is ingrained in us they are liberalists so let's call them that

The Strong- This type believes there is no God, no good and evil they view laws as inventions of those in authority therefore everyman should strive to be the authority, they summarize their beliefs in one phrase 'Survival of the fittest'

These atheists usually believe in violence as the best solution in life they are models of fascists let's call them supremacists



The liberalists often accuse Christianity of inequality they point at the Atlantic slave trade, they point at women's right, they call Christianity a slave religion "slaves obey your earthly masters" most of them don't see anything wrong with homosexuality as long as it's within the legal age of consent..


they say the world was a better place until Christianity came along


The Supremacists e.g Fredriche Nietzsche believed the exact opposite 'the ancient Romans were not Christians yet they believed women were household properties they were not Christians but they believed Slavery was good' he accused Christianity of being the first religion that tolerated and promoted weakness 'Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth' they believe Christianity is the source of all equality..


most of them don't see anything wrong with homosexuality especially if it is practiced among children

likewise they also say the world was a much better place until Christianity came along


Now in this day and age supremacists are very few, liberalists keep pointing at themselves as the true atheists, they say atheists like Stalin killed for political reasons (what other reason should an atheist kill for? Religious?)


They are always preaching 'live and let live' but always failing over and over again to tell us upon what authority their beliefs are based... God? Satan? surely not Nature, where in the wild have you seen living organisms minding their own business?...the grass blocks the sunlight of other grasses, the deer eats the grass the lion eats the deer other animals fight against the lion for territory and so on, for one organism to live successfully others around it must perish whether by peaceful slow competition or by a violent sudden one

like Richard Dawkins postulated ideas are living organisms called memes

for one idea to survive and reproduce it must out of necessity bring down those around it whether slowly or instantly the only way two different organisms can truly live together is if they mutually work together to bring the downfall of other living organisms


These liberalists often accuse modern Christians of being affected by secularism while it's the direct opposite... IT IS THEY that have been affected by secularism


They frequently contradict themselves in their daily lives, when you ask what is the source of morality? expect an epistle

They talk about legal age of consent, who made legal legal? Legality is an invention of man what man has made...man can destroy

The problem with them is they make it very hard to stamp out the true radical Atheists they protect evil by calling themselves good... these wolves in sheeps clothing are much more dangerous than the true atheists always preaching what they don't believe... they don't believe in evolution they don't believe in creation in summary they fight against everything that Christians are already fighting against yet accusing Christians of being the cause like a parasite their very movement is suicidal all it aims to do is bring down Christianity and other religions with it so the true Atheists the true supremacists can reign as lords forever in the end there would be a huge clapback these moments of freedom is expiring women would be slaves permanently blacks would be slaves permanently because they did give us freedom just to prove to us why they should take it.

Next in line for what exactly?

next in line for ATM see stupid question

laliga01:
You know nothing about struggle. Ojukwu lost almost all his father's wealth in that war. He father was one of the richest in the country, if he is that selfish as you paint it, he had no reason to go to war as he was very comfortable in every aspect of his life.

Hmmm he wasn't very comfortable they killed Aguiyi killed many Igbo soldiers he was obviously the next in line
