jamescross: Which particular portions of the post are my personal assumptions? I challenge you to disprove any of the points I raised earlier with your own points. That is how to have an intellectual debate, and that was what I expected. 1 Like |
Religion / Re: Atheism And Logical Fallacies : Here Are 10 Logical Fallacies Atheists Commit by dHumanist: 12:30am On Feb 14, 2018 |
KingEbukasBlog: I bet if you ask any of these scientists to defend their statements non of them would deny that they uttered such statements. Although, you tried to present those statement as a bias for materialism by scientists. Yes men of science are biased in support of materialism but that is actually what science is about. For anyone who cares to know; the bias for materialism in science was born out of human experience that animism as posited by religion had never been effective in satisfing human curiosity about the physical world. In this regard science/in-animism has done much better. For that bias to die there will have to be an undisputed proof in support of animism, and that would be the death of a lot sciences, especially physics. The bone of contention is the nature of ultimate reality. science has proven through its ability to make accurate predictions based on theoretical models, that the nature of ultimate reality is material. Religion is yet to prove the veracity of its own position on nature of ultimate reality; and I mean a rational proof. Long story short materialism gives the best approximation to the truth. Also, no matter how hard certain groups like Jehovah Witnesses try to reconcile science with religion the fact remain that religion is anathema to science, especially physics. |

Science does not claim to have the answer to every problem or question bordering the human mind. Only religion does that but reality is there to guide anyone who embraces rationality. But undoubtedly, science has yielded the nearest approximation to the true nature of reality compared to other methods, especially religion. 1 Like 1 Share |

greiboy:Adoption is distinct from development. Christianity was actually developed by the west starting from Rome. Granted the movement started in the east but most of the traditions and doctrines were developed by western minds. Mind you most of these scholars or church fathers were pupils of Greek philosophers; Plato and Aristotle.Therefore, Christian traditions were greatly influenced by Greeco-Roman culture. The most obvious evidences to substantiate the argument above; 1) Christian places of worship in the west are usually modeled after ancient greeco-roman temples. 2) There is no eastern nation that is a self acclaimed Christian state. Not even Israel. Whereas, western states are traditionally considered to be christian states. Although, seculiarism is on the rise. Finally, Nigeria did not adopt Christianity or Islam. Both were forced on our ancestors. This is a fact but you may choose to believe otherwise. 1 Like |

greiboy:Definitely no. Nevertheless, Christianity is a western belief system, and going by your statement isn't it high time we do away with another culture's beliefs about the most important aspects of reality? |

jamescross:The guy asked you simple rational questions, your result to attacking his intellectual capacity shows that you're not willing to engage in a rational debate. |

greiboy:So it's okay for Nigerians to cling to irrational beliefs which are in fact currently being discarded by their original creators (the west). 1 Like |
