Ps cancer rate is now through the roof.
Like seriously, people believe this?
Every damn vaccine has side effects, just like every drug. Some drugs even have worse side effects than Covid vaccines, but we weight the benefits and drawbacks before administering them. Besides only Moderna and Pfizer vaxxes are mrna, the rest are non mrna vaxxes, yet the non mrna have side effects too.
And who told you cancer rates are high due to mrna vaxxes? Mrna vaxxes was started with Covid in circa 2021 but cancer rates have been climbing due to our diet and environment since decades ago.
And how tf do u know it was a covid shot that killed the woman, and even if she took the shot, how do you know the death is related to the shot?
The worse thing is the people that like your post. This country is doomed if its future depends on people like you and your likes

FxMasterz:
The suicide problem of atheism comes from the same demons whose existence atheists deny.

Christian converts in Muslim countries, and those who dwell among chronic Muslim brethren suffer a greater measure of persecution which includes but not limited to isolation, death threats (often carried out), rejection, dehumanization, excommunication, molestation, mockery and a host of other evils. Yet, they do not commit suide or have the faintest thoughts of it.

The same demons are putting your focus on Christians as the cause of your problems while taking your attention off themselves.

You guys should keep deceiving yourselves. A day would come when you would never be able to say again that there's no God because you'll see Him face to face.

Those who have died are currently regretting. If they have the chance, they'll love to return to warn you not continue in this destructive path of atheism. It's quite too late for them now. If you still have your breath, you still have opportunity today to repent.

Yes, those atheists who have died including your revered Darwin is in full regrets right now but it's too late for them. You might ask how am I sure of this. Yeah, I am 2,000% percent sure because I have met God. I know Him and He knows me.
You know what, there's no need replying this post. Its bullshitry is even worse than the OP. LOL 😆

The primary cause of the depressing life of Atheists in undeveloped societies is a conflict between beliefs and actions. They have different beliefs, but the environment, family, and friends force them to perform different actions. In this situation, depression is obvious when you are doing acts forcefully. You don’t want to perform. Still, perform.

This is an ideal situation to trigger depression .because your will is compromised, all you are doing to praise someone else .you are not prepared to do, but you must obey.

Sometimes it happens in emotional blackmailing like you have to perform prayer to make happy to your parents, and sometimes your parents force you to perform such things. In both cases, your own will be compromised, and you are inviting depression for yourself.
Lets assume this piece is true for the sake of argument. Then you're referring to atheists in undeveloped countries. What about those in developed countries who contribute a huge chunk of worldwide atheists? Are you seeing your reasoning is bollocks. This demonstrates theists may be dumber than a wet bricks

Fewer Friends
An atheist in such societies is a picky person. He has very few friends. He is not comfortable with everyone. He speaks carefully. His surroundings judge his words and actions.

He doesn’t believe in the majority’s religion. He must be very picky while making friends; any carelessness can put his life in danger. He often cannot discuss his beliefs with his friends openly. He remains silent, so his mind blows, but his tongue remains silent. He wants to share his thoughts, but he can’t. So the second big reason is Fewer friends.
Yes, I have no friends. I'm a loner. I live in a religious society. I'm I suicidal? Hell no!
There are atheists living in UK, Nederlands who openly profess their belief, and have many friends. Are they suicidal? I don't know but I don't think so.
Like I said, your article reeks of quality bullshit. There's no stats, no logic. Just a regular horseshit someone plucked from his ass
Christianity Etc › Re: Atheism Has A Suicide Problem by jaephoenix(m): 12:36am On Feb 12, 2024
Drjones109:
Depression is a serious problem with in the greater atheist community and far too often, that depression has led to suicide. This is something many of my fellow atheists often don’t like to admit, but it is true. I know a lot of atheists, myself included, would all like to believe that atheists are happier people than religious believers and in many ways we are. But we also have to accept the reality that in some very important ways we are not.

There are of course many valid reasons why atheists are sometimes more prone to suicide than religious believers. Interestingly enough, one of those reasons is religious believers themselves. We live in a world dominated by people who often fervently believe ancient superstitions and who many times demonize, harass, ostracize, and disown those who lack belief in those ancient superstitions. Atheists on the receiving end of this treatment are understandably stressed and isolated. They often experience anxiety and depression as a result.

Imagine you are a young person who has just come to the realization that God is imaginary. You have just realized that everything your religious tradition and your parents have taught you is make-believe. Your whole world has just come undone and for the first time in your life, you now have to wrestle with the great existential questions of life on your own and without any support networks. What does it mean to live a meaningful life without a supernatural deity? Without an afterlife to live for, what is the purpose of life?

Not only does this young person have to struggle with these existential questions on their own, but they also have to do so under the backdrop of fear and anxiety about revealing their doubts and atheism to family and friends. Maybe they already have and as a result, they have been ostracized and/or disowned. Left with no friends, no family, no church community… they are alone, in the philosophical dark, and probably facing the bullying and harassment of their former religious community.

I wrote about atheism’s suicide problem before and got a variety of responses. Some atheists questioned whether the statistics actually showed that a problem exists at all. For the record, it does. I can also tell you anecdotally, that it does. Like I said in that previous article, I have had friends who have died or who very likely have died from suicide. Since that post, I know even more atheists who have taken their own lives. But even if the suicide rate among atheists were exactly the same as among religious believes, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t work to lower that number. This life is after all the only life we have.

There were Christians who responded both privately and publicly to my previous article on this subject. They were often quick to point fingers and say things like, “See, atheism causes suicide,” or “Maybe atheists have a higher suicide rate because they know that their life means nothing without God, but are too arrogant to beg him for forgiveness even though they know inside they are guilty, they choose to die forever with their sin.” Yes, those were real comments from real religious believers. It is what has been called, #ChristianLove. Even the odious Bill Donohue of the Catholic League got in on the action. In his book, “The Catholic Advantage: Why Health, Happiness, and Heaven Await the Faithful,” Donohue mentions me by name as he misrepresented and flat out made stuff up about my previous article, which he was attempting to use as source material. These responses, of course, entirely missed the point. Let me lay it out. Yes, atheists like many other marginalized minorities can be prone to depression and even suicide in large part due to the horrible behavior of many in the religious majority.

I acknowledge that while ignorance really is bliss and people may be happier when they believe in magical paradises after death, it is only when people accept reality that they are in a better position to make themselves and others truly happy. It is the difference between being high on drugs and being high on life. Or in this case high on Jesus vs. high on the vast wonders of the universe. Obviously, I think being high on life is the better kind of happiness. But that is just my opinion.

As a community, atheists should be reminding each other about the wonders around us. It is far too easy to get lost in our day-to-day struggles and problems. To paraphrase Ferris Bueller, life moves pretty fast sometimes and if you don’t stop and look around every once in a while, you just might miss it. We only have one life. There are no do-overs and no magically perfect kingdoms awaiting us when we die. This is it. Life’s too short to waste. If your life sucks, work to make it better… if not for you, for those who come after you. Again, there is a vast cosmos out there and we are links in the chain of human achievement.

One thing I have noticed is that after someone commits suicide, there is suddenly an outpouring of support for them. If only that outpouring could have come a little sooner… Well, it kind of can (not for them obviously, but for the next them). That’s right; we can be there for our friends and family right now. We don’t have to wait until someone commits suicide to say nice things to and about them. We don’t have to wait to check in with people we know are struggling. We can be there for people right now. This is one area in which religion has an actual advantage. They have a support system and a community. But atheists can have that too. There is no need to believe in ridiculous superstitions on insufficient evidence to have a community willing to help each other. We got this.

Atheists are notorious for being contrarians and people who are not always joiners. You get three atheists in a room together and it won’t be long before there is some minor issue that divides them. South Park famously satirized this and in the past few years, we have seen this at our local and national meetings and events. But the fact is that if religion has done anything right, it has been to form actual communities for people to gather and share their struggles. We don’t have to all agree on every issue. There are going to be both minor and major issues that atheists are going to have with each other. However, we are all on this tiny blue dot together and we need to be there for each other because there is no magic deity to help us and no one is perfect.

But it cuts both ways. Not only do we have a responsibility to help each other, but we also have a responsibility to communicate our struggles with each other and ask for support. There is no magic deity peering into our souls. Hell, there aren’t even souls to be peered into. Did I just say “hell?” That’s not even a real place. But I digress. Anyway, my point is that we have to offer help to others and we have to ask for help when we need it. That’s on us and there is no shame in admitting that we need help.

Well, something has to at least make some sense. If someone tells you they believe something because they had a personal encounter, how can you argue with that? Different from someone telling you God doesn't exist - something you're hundred percent sure they have no way of knowing!
Personal encounters are bullshit. My wife had weird dreams of heaven when she was sedated for a cesarean section(which is a side effect of ketamine). To her that means heaven exists. I tried to convince her otherwise but no way. People also take hallucinating agents like LCD, Molly, etc and see all kinds of stuff. Schizophrenics have visual and auditory hallucinations. They'll tell you they are special cos god talks to them. Would you believe their narrations? No. But they are all personal experiences and to them its real. But people like you would believe them.

I said it! Without the word "god" my man is lost. All those people u see discussing simulation and matrix, do you see any of them use the word "god"?
There is authority then there is authority. If geniuses who figured out truths about our reality that you can't figure out in many lifetimes are all going one way, pay attention! Especially when you are neither a deep thinker nor know anything about the highly advanced sciences upon which they base their statements
Going by your analogy, you should also be atheistic. A good number of scientists are atheists, about 40%, ranging from Hawkins, Crick, Bohr etc. These were great minds with world changing inventions and they didn't think there's a sky daddy up there.
You obviously have never heard of fallacy of appeal to authority, or even any fallacies at all

By the way, I don't have to like my own posts as some atheists often do to fake the impression of superior argument. So do not be deceived by the many likes their post often receive. It doesn't mean what they say is more sensible, logical or the truth, but their desperation to give that impression. Check the screenshot below to understand better, because the post in it belongs to a popular and active atheist whose three other monikers are also in view, and suddenly his post had received 3 likes. I'm not that desperate to give the false impression of superior argument.
You just don't make sense. Christians like their own posts. Same as atheists. So what's your point?

The Great Commission is found in the New Testament of the Bible, specifically in The book of Matthew, chapter 28, verses 19-20:

"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.".

So my point here is this is what you found in your own religious bible and believe in it, you were not there when it was written same as other religions book they also hold the content so tight than you. Try use your head when teaching Jesus to Muslim fanatics your life might be in danger like that woman killed in her early morning preaching against Muslims in Abuja. Jesus did not come to her rescue because is not what he sent her for , that’s my point
Your views are totally in opposite of Christians.
By the way, from what posted, Jesus said he's with anyone promulgating the gospel. So why would harm befall such a person?
Besides if the British adopted your 'soft' stance in evangelism, you'll probably still be an idol worshipper since they won't be interested in leaving the shores of the UK to preach via missionary work
