And so did Jesus when he lit that blunt one cozy Palestinian morning. He tripped so hard, he thought he was a prophet LMAO grin


Dude got executed by the Roman authority, then all the jews were high as hell too so they just found some random man near a cave and claimed he was Nazareth reborn!

Don't do drugs kids. And stop believing in magical superbeings that don't exist.

Atheism is not a belief in "oneself". Juxtasposing atheism as a solipsistic or individualist philosophy in opposition to Christianity or Christian-inspired values is a false dichotomy and false framing.

All atheism is, is the lack of belief in a god. A- (un- , without) Theismos (god, gods). Atheismos. Atheism - godless, without gods.

Christianity EtcDid Jesus Smoke Weed? by Ioseph(op): 6:44pm On Oct 12, 2017
Think about it, Jesus was around in the ancient Levant, a place filled with naturally growing marijuana and a history of Hashish trading. Do you think it's possible he might've toked a bit of ganja? inhaled that sweet kush?

Maybe Jesus and his fans were convinced he was the son of god because they wouldn't stop toking those green buds.
Christianity EtcRe: Why Africans Should Not Follow Abrahamic Religions (christianity, Islam, Judaism by Ioseph(m): 12:56pm On Oct 12, 2017
JackBizzle:
Religion, believe it or not, is one of Africa's biggest problems next to corruption and poverty. While there are many religions outside the Abrahamic faiths, the Abrahamic faiths are the most widespread and most disastrous to the African mind.

Here are reasons why Africans should never follow these religions


1) All the prophets of Islam, Christianity and Judaism are not from Africa but the Middle East;
Why would you follow a religion that tells you that God ignored Africa and chose his prophets from the middle east? Is God now afraid of African prophets or are we inferior.


2) These religions accepted the slavery of Africans
Islam and Christianity arrived in Africa through slavery. The Arabs came to the Kanem Bornu empire (which is partly in Nigeria) to take slaves. The Europeans/Americans got slaves from West Africa. Judaism supports slavery in certain forms. A slave that accepts the slavemaster's religion is a slave forever.


3)These religions destroy African culture
Are Hijab and Niquaab the cultural dresses of Yoruba or Hausa women? Why do we give our children Jewish and Arab names instead of Nigerian names?
Idris Abdulkareem
Victor Moses
John Mikel
Abdulsam Abubakar
^^
Are these African names? Yet, our best and brightest in Nigeria bear these names!


4) Abrahamic religions keep Africa backwards
Against abortion, against evolution, against contraceptives, against gay rights, against freedom of speech (balsphemy laws), against feminism etc


5) Abrahamic religions enrich foreign countries
-Pilgrimage to mecca and jerusalem
-catholic churches in Africa sending money to Rome
-Buying bibles and books printed overseas with overseas authors and printers
-Pastors buying private jets which are serviced and maintained in dollars




AFRICANS, BE WISE.
Well actually, the same can be said of the West. Christianity and Judaism were Abrahamic religions not Western religions, Western religions such as the Greco-Roman pantheon (Zeus, Poseidon/Neptune, Hades, etc.), the Norse-German religion (Thor, Odin/Woden, Loki, etc.), Celtic mythology and other religions were "indigenous" religions of Europe prior to the spread of Christianity and Manichaeism. Zoroastrianism was the major religion of Persia and Iranian lands prior to the spread of the Muslim Empire.

Christianity reach parts of Africa in the same way, particularly in the East, but while the West is stepping past Abrahamic literalism, most of Africa is chained to it.

TundeHashim:
I'm a Muslim but I must admit that atheism is on the rise. It's the f*cking reality. Day in day out, I read comments of people attacking the very foundation upon which religion stands. Interestingly, the questions they raise are logical and their arguments apt. It's shame on theists if we can't come up with a more rational argument and resort to insulting them and threatening them with hell. Though I've got a rebuttal to some of their arguments but honestly, it has made me more liberal than before. Also, I've become more resilient in my faith in God.
How about realising that Allah is not real and Mohammad is a clown? The fact that you find the concept of irreligion so unbelievable speaks to how brainwashed you are as a Muslim.

A Crusader? Really now?

Are you really a Nigerian, or are you just a nazi troll?

Crusaders massacred millions of Muslims and Jews, and even other Christians in the Levant who were of the Nestorian branch, who were considered "heretics". They weren't protectors of the weak or saviours, they didn't have honour, they didn't "protect freedom" (they were fighting for Christian control), they were backwards savage barbarians who raped, pillaged and murdered innocent civilians, and the Western world they came from was far less advanced than that of the superior Islamic one at the time.

Where did you get that stupid picture from? Nazis-R-Us dot Com? Go drink lead.

Christianity EtcMuslims, Christians, Jews, Deists - Give Me Solid Proof That God Exists. by Ioseph(op): 11:20am On Oct 12, 2017
You cannot use the following "arguments":

1. Quoting scripture. The Bible and Quran are not tangible nor reliable evidence for the existence of a god. The Bible and Quran were crafted from scriptures written by people over the past 3 to 1 thousand years. There is no evidence of any 'supernatural' involvement in their creation.

2. Claim that you had a 'personal experience' with god. This is anecdotal and does not hold up to greater scrutiny.

3. Change the discussion to a debate about whether or not god doesn't exist. This topic is solely about your proof and reasoning for a sentient creator creature, namely the God of the Bible, Allah of the Quran, or some unknown entity, being the creator of the universe, from time to quasars to planetary formation to the first life, having dimensions(?) like heaven or hell where the carbon-water sacks known as Humans (and only Humans? Is there a heaven for Neanderthals? Homo Erectus?) somehow(?) go to after they perish, and proof (if you are a Christian or Muslim) of their interaction with the human race, and their reasons for their rules and laws. It is not about evidence of nonexistence.


Go ahead.

i have read many of your posts...it seems you are fighting the being you consider imaginary...
This post was about Mohammad, not allah. Mohammad is very real, and so are my allegations of him being a murderous violent pedophile. I am challenging traditional interpretations of a man seldom ever criticised throughout the Muslim world for fear of execution by religious police or angry Muslim mobs. Stop trying to warp this subject into something it's not.

vaxx:
Well, they are way to address the system without attacking the faith, if you find it barbaric.... Remember Nigeria is a Democratic state
Nigeria is democratic? LOL. Nigeria is a cesspool of corruption and tribalism. Muslim herdsmen attack Christian villages, Christians lynch Muslims. Boko Haram is one of the world's major Jihadist groups and is thriving in the North. Hausa vote for one party, Igbo vote for the other, Yoruba are caught in between, the people vote for people with money or prestige over people with intelligent economic plans or motives for the country's future, and the top brass of the government are money-laundering pig scum who suck the wealth out of their nation for a big house and a private jet, enriching their worthless lives and perpetuating the destruction of the future of their country. Calling the shithole that is Nigeria a "democracy" gives democracy a bad name.

vaxx:
where freedom of worship and thought is allowed..
Wrong. 12 of Nigeria's 36 states employ Shariah law, where Blasphemy of Islam is punishable by death.

Do not use the freedom of speech to promote hatred among the believer
If 'promoting hatred among the believer' means exposing Christianity and Islam as the nonsense that they are, then I shall proudly do so.

vaxx:
.....you are behind the screen, so nobody know you.....
Is this a threat? Are you saying I'd be assaulted if I insulted Mohammad and Islam in public? Didn't you just call Nigeria a "democratic country" where "freedom of worship and thought is allowed"? This is exactly why we need to debate the delusion that is Islamic faith. If offline you are beaten by thugs and online you are banned from criticising the religion, then there is no freedom of thought NOR democracy at play.

Islam is a lie. Christianity is a lie. Jesus is dead, Mohammad was a bloodthirsty warlord

vaxx:
but that those not give you liberty to attack anybody belive system....it is called devilish....
Why is it 'devilish', exactly? You have provided no reasons whatsoever for your case.


vaxx:
The Muhammad you attack is a man of historical record that will still linger in the minds of billions after your death

The Jesus you attack is a man of historical record that will still linger in the minds of billion after your death....
True, but not as symbols 'the perfect human', prophets of gods or icons of religious worship. They will be remembered as historical figures within the secular framework of modern peer-reviewed historical study, as they should be. Jesus as a revolutionary Roman Jew and Mohammad as a bloodthirsty warmongering Arab.


vaxx:
this two men historical record is far gretter than isaac newton or albert elnestein of science you value......
False. Newton and Einstein's contributions to classical and modern physics respectively are a big part of the reasons behind why we have cars, roads, rockets, engines, airplanes, dams, power grids, satellites, x-rays, solar power, factories, plastics, weather reports, nuclear power plants, an understanding of the fundamental building blocks of the universe, the history of the universe, etc.

They contributed far more to modern technology, science and understanding of the universe than Jesus or Mohammad ever did.

vaxx:
The being you consider imaginary(God, yahweh, allah) live in the mind of billions and they hold him in high esteem
That's exactly what makes them imaginary.


vaxx:
Before you attack me ......I am not a Muslim nor Christian..... But I respect their belive system....I only condemn them when they attack my belive without respecting it.....
Why do you respect their belief system? Their belief system is based on myths, lies and draconic societal values from Bronze Age tribal societies. Instead of giving 'respect' where none is due, I think it is a far better idea to speak of Christianity and Islam as the nonsenses that they are, and move society away from the theocratic.

I've been reading your posts, and it seems like you don't actually have any argument for or against the existence of a god or the validity of a religion, so much as you just want to make other people shut up about it. Well I'm sorry to say, kiddo, but you missed the philistine bus 400 years ago.

There is a difference between criticism and demented gibberish
There is nothing demented or gibberish about what I said. Are you yourself a muslim? You seem to have the mental geass that rejects all criticism of Islam typical to the muslim mind.

Let's break it down nice and slow so you can understand:

There is no scientific, historical or circumstantial evidence for the existence of Allah - Correct.

Mohammad was a warlord - Correct.

Mohammad raped a 9 year old girl, Aisha - Correct.

Mohammad created a personality cult around himself - Correct.

Mohammad invoked divine revelation from Allah to justify his greed, especially when it involved breaking laws he himself had set down as laws of god, e.g. raping his son-in-law's wife and refusing to have sexual intercourse with his oldest wife. - Correct. (The French philosopher Voltaire, who hated Mohammed, mocks him for this in his play, Mahomet "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahomet_(play)" )

Mohammad believes that women are mentally deficient and that women should not be allowed to run countries - Correct.

Mohammad is violent, often in cruel and unusual ways - Correct.


Mohammad owns slaves - Correct.

Mohammad is an autark - Correct.

Mohammad is racist, specifically to Ethiopians whom he calls "raisin heads" - Correct.

Mohammad is a disgusting violent wretched warlord thug. That is not demented gibberish - it is a rightful description of a horrible, horrible man.
Christianity EtcRe: Mohammad PBUH, Great Prophet Of Islam! by Ioseph(op): 9:26am On Oct 12, 2017
Notice how criticism of Christianity is a dime a dozen but criticizing Islam results in hushed tones and people signalling respect? What a moronic dichotomy. Islam is a Dark Ages religion with arbitrary laws, a violent murderer-prophet and a god that simply does not exist. Anyone with the penchant for debate and the basic understanding of religious myth should say so loud and clear, regardless to the 'respect' for the brainwashed some might garner.

Guy get off the internet....respect other people's believes.

The only thing that makes you practice your own religion (whatever that is) is because you were born into it. It doesn't justify anything. To everyone, his own religion is true. Let it be like that.

God bless you, and Jesus loves you.
God is not real and Jesus doesn't know who I am - he's been dead for two thousand fucking years.

Go f*ck yourself you cretin-minded philistine. God is NOT REAL. Mohammad is a THUG. These beliefs shape politics, countries, cultures - people are executed, beaten to death by their classmates, go to war over a god and a religion which is a FARCE. I do not respect delusions, and I never will.

F*CK you, I will NEVER respect the beliefs of a nonsensical and bigoted religion, that shows no respect for the beliefs of others. The fact that you even recognise the fact that being raised into religion is the raison d'etre for a lot of that religion's faithful yet absolutely refuse criticism for it shows how much of a useless mongrel piece of garbage you are.

Christianity EtcMohammad PBUH, Great Prophet Of Islam! by Ioseph(op): 9:10am On Oct 12, 2017
Mohammad is a disgusting violent wretched warlord thug who sexually assaulted a 9 year old girl and created a personality cult around himself and a non-existent "allah" that he used to justify his lust, greed and cruelty. There is nothing more abhorrent than the fact that billions of Muslims around the world look up to this DISGUSTING SAVAGE as a symbol of the 'perfect person'. He is the opposite! He is a disgusting, cowardly, bloodthirsty, conniving swine! He is a woman hater and an autark, a hedonistic, swollen sack of shit! He is a violent, malicious, racist warmonger and is the archetype of the enemy of the modern world!

F*ck Mohammad! There is no god but allah, no god at all! If Mohammad was alive today he'd be dragged in front of Geneva in chains for international war crimes!!

analice107:
Do you know why God demands that we have Children?
God doesn't demand a single thing because God is not real, and the old testament comes from a time where piecemeal barbarian desert tribes brutally fought and murdered one another in a bloody and primitive struggle for control, where murder, violence and adrenaline juiced tribalism took precedence over greater society, humanity and weighted consideration. Applying that logic to the modern world is absolutely insane. That's how you get things like Saudi Arabia, ISIS or the Ku Klux Klan.

The whole 'marry within your religion' shebang is straight up dark ages stuff, back when religion was a political alliance and one tribe's religion made the difference between whether it got raided or not (not always though). You'll notice that all the countries that prevent marriage between people of differing faiths are Muslim states, specifically non-muslim men and muslim women. These states also tend to have other such nasty things as the death penalty, blasphemy laws, horrible migrant worker laws, among other things. We're living in the goddamned 21st century, we've had over 5000 years of civilisation - One-religion-only marriage really has no place in modern society.

The rules are clear; Christians can only marry Christians.

My problem is with people that claim to be Christians and then turn around to tell you that they ethnicity is more important to them than their Christian faith.

It is not by force.
This is exactly what muslims do to muslims, and they actually have laws in Muslim countries against women marrying non-muslim men (Tunisia recently removed this savage law). It is a barbaric and backwards practice, and has absolutely no place in the modern world. The Bible and the Quran are a load of bullshit, to hell with the "laws" within them!

Why are you trying to lower yourself to dark ages barbarism? Marry whoever you goddamn want to, don't be a literalist Christian or Muslim slowpoke.
Christianity EtcThe Islam For Muslims Section Is Unfair by Ioseph(op): 3:54pm On Oct 10, 2017
I don't understand the purpose of this subforum. Religion is a section to discuss religion, but creating a seperate miniforum for Muslims and ONLY Muslims feels extremely biased to me. It's providing a space for Muslims to share their views without criticism or discussion which goes against the point of this forum. Hell, if there was a "Christianity for Christians" section this forum's discussions would be basically nonexistent.

If a muslim joins this forum then they will obviously head to that section and avoid debate. I don't think this is fair and actually believe that it is arrogant for muslims to get such a privilege. Instead of actually having their beliefs poked and prodded, muslims on this forum are repeating the neurotic tradition of muslims everywhere to shun advice from anyone who is not another Muslim. I believe this jeapordises the point of the Religion forum and lowers standards.

Christianity EtcMuslims - What Are Your Thoughts On The Mu'tazilah? by Ioseph(op): 3:35pm On Oct 10, 2017
These are people from over a thousand years ago during the Islamic Golden Age, who took a critical position on the Quran and Hadith. They questioned the gospel modern day Muslims take as law and dismissed them if they did not hold up to rational scrutiny. They also rejected that the Quran had existed eternally, and believed that it was clearly something which was written down. Many of the greatest Muslim mathematicians and scientists were Mu'tazilites (many others were closet atheists and agnostics).

Today this ideology is practically dead. Funded with billions of dollars by Saudi Arabia among others, Salafi ideology has spread like bracken over the poor populations of corrupt muslim countries from Egypt to Turkey to India. Extremists like ISIS, Wahhabists and Salafis use Mutazilite as an insult, and not even some of the most critical "modern muslims" only "interpret" the Quran, instead of outright criticising and rejecting some of it's verses.

So Naija muslims, what do you think of the Mutazila?
