Mindfulness:
There are historians who claim that Jesus existed and at least one other who disagrees.

mustymatic:
You think atheism includes bn smart, ungodliness is,what Google ?
I believe in God you don't...

mustymatic:
It is I who asked first. but since you asked; ungodliness, wickedness

Bingo, you see why i called you Genius? You totally killed it

it is clear you don't even have any idea of what you are yapping. . . Now take a little trip to google, find the meaning of Atheism then come back lets see if you can have a little constructive upgrade!!!...When you are done with that then pop in so you will be taken on a little trip to defend your Allah

chalantmike:
let me explain, no matter what man does he can escape God/nature.

This is how destiny and free will are related.
God ordained that man must "thats destiny", but at the same time he created a wide variety of things to eat, for man to pick "thats freewill".

On ur way to work, its been destined you'd get to work "destination", you can walk, jump, crawl, board a bus, follow long cut as well as short, you can decide to branch and cajole, but broz your destination is still there, you go reach am.

mustymatic:
Your religion (atheism) nko?

Bravo Genius!!! Now define Atheism

tartar9:
Allah(SAW) is omniscient He knew every single thing that will ever happen even before creation.you have your own free will but can't will to follow the straight path unless Allah so wills.

tartar9:
yes,why shouldn't He know

"But you cannot will, unless Allah wills.Verily, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-
Wise." (Qur'an 76:30)

Church in Europe are collapsing speedily especially in western Europe. They are discovering that they have no reasons and justifications to believing conventional notion of a god and Christianity.

And many of them are mumuciously resorting to an even more absurd religion, Islam. . Isn't that the height mumucity seeing the devastating effects such dangerous dogma as Islam can cause in a state.

If Nigeria was all christian, we wouldn't have been facing this terrorism we are facing now, i will pick Chrisitianity over islam any day at least Christians mostly have low tendency of collective violence and extreme intolerance like killing apostates or extreme misogyny...

These people self jumping from frying pan into fire..
Hinduism, Christianity, Taoism, Buddism, Confucianism and ATR are far better religions than islam in terms of violence and idiotic intolerance.

And Christianity also has very cool music and vibes

Mindfulness:
Buddha and Jesus are historical figures too. Whether Jesus performed any miracles is irrelevant. Whether Ghandi, MLK and Mandela knew anything about Buddha is irrelevant. The point that I am trying to make is that all these people share a similar philosophy.
A philosophy that is based on the principles of humility, forgiveness, respect and non-violence. All these people are great examples of personified humanity, kindness and benevolence. This is what I focus on, not on whether Jesus actually could walk on water or make the dead alive.

Exactly, this is the point .... I honestly love this.

And perhaps when you are dead humanity will also remember you in good light as they remember those ones.. Another living example is Dalalai Lama... I too is of same ideology too

Like i have been trying to tell this girl on the other thread

"If you want good to be in the world then be the good in the world

An2elect2:
Since you do not understand simple things such as God's existence, i will be fooling myself if i even entertain the thought of you grabbing complex ones.

Have a nice day

Hahahahahahahaha quite funny. The last time i checked you don't even know or understand or is sure of that's which you think exists that why you believe it by faith.

Isn't it funny how nobody needs faith to know that earth exists but all of you needs faith (strong mostly emotional conviction or wishful hope) that a God exists. .

I wonder what complex things you obviously think you know that i have not seen a thousand times over.

Complex things, lmao when you can't even develop a personal independent ideology but clutching on what you were indoctrinated into as a kid.

You can bring on the complex things, i might even forgo my atheistic views for once and we will discuss Christian theology like two Christians

Gombs:
It was a mountain side... He was sitting in the flow of the wind, at the base of the mountain. The wind made him audible with less effort.


Jesus was way smarter than we thought o.

An2elect2:
Just like Noah and the arch, so is God and Jesus.

An2elect2:
You are saying nonsense this world is doomed already

rheether:
While paedophile Mohammed is busy Fvcking kids and under aged girls. Islam is bad and deserves hell.

An2elect2:
Islam is a product of this cursed world, not the other way round

I hate islam, but the world more

menesheh:
The bible need to be re-edited to accommodate thou shall not enslave or own your fellow human as property

tartar9:
He(SAW) doesn't even know if an Idiot like decakron exists.

tartar9:
He(SAW) should come and face you when Hez facing the throne of Allah(SA) are u misfit even a challenge.

KingEbukasBlog:
Disagreeing ? You described religious beliefs as "absurdities " . You derided Christians' beliefs of Christ's second coming . You have described my stance on miracles which myself have experienced as " illusion" .

Should I refresh your memory ? --> https://www.nairaland.com/2474302/most-committed-atheists-once-chtistians#3622196
Maybe the dictionary should help
tolerate :
1. to allow the existence, presence, practice, or act of without prohibition or hindrance; permit.
2. to endure without repugnance; put up with:
bigot
a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions.
intolerant
not tolerant of views, beliefs, or behavior that differ from one's own.
When you describe beliefs as absurd and barbaric and ridicule them in a public forum like this . What should it be called ?

Hahahahahahahaha you see my point?

I never insulted or attacked anybody but rather the idea itself. . . Ideas are meant to be criticized, disagreed on, argued on and even ridiculed.

Again i repeat you all should stop the ad hominems the post just showed i never attacked anybody, my attack was on the ideology.

I recognize your right to hold a belief (ideology) and i respect that but telling me to respect or bear the ideology myself when thrown at me is a different story..

Now i hope it is clear the difference between attacking a belief and attacking a person ... Just like the post you quoted showed "My attack was on the belief itself"

So as i first stated, argue without insulting the person you are arguing with just like you guys has been doing on this thread

maverickboy:
Lastly, My assertion could be to u, but not totally wrong as far as I'm concerned. It's a matter of perspective.

KingEbukasBlog:
Dont get me wrong . If you dont like ad hominems then dont portray yourself as someone who tolerates other people's beliefs whilst your comments tell a different story . You are just inviting it .

Bash and ridicule religion nobody's wahala , but dont say "Im not a bigot" at the end

maverickboy:
I'd have like to explain something here but it won't just be acceptable to you. And mind u, u are to haste on ur conclusion!

maverickboy:
And the fact that there could be two answers to a question is something necessary for u to understand. Once u have made up ur mind never to look into what others perspective is, u will continue to make a terrible mistake that there's nothing they can offer u.
Of course, we can go into history to clarify our differences but how deep should we go. Don't forget history starts somewhere but has no end; tomorrow will be history. so, when u go into its depth, and history itself has nothing else to offer how do u explain the rest of the issue?

KingEbukasBlog:
I bet you liked and shared kobosmalls' most recent comment . How Im I pretty sure ? Ive been on this thread (my internet connection was poor ) . His comment had no likes or shares . I know how Nairaland works , winner01 brought the thread alive on the first page with his comment -a reply to me - you visited , liked and shared the comment and then wrote the comment above .

Even if I'm wrong , you are still really hypocritical . You claim not to be a bigot but the ineffable share of bashing goes to the religious people . malvisguy212 was right

Mindfulness:
I agree with many points you have raised here BUT I do not agree with the bold.

Even if you do not consider yourself a Christian, people such as Jesus, Buddha, Mandela, MLK, Ghandi and some others are very much needed today; maybe even more than ever.

maverickboy:
There's one thing I got to know from ur response to my post, That's "the hearing of religion is the opium of atheists".
I think I'll have to let go of this, so as not to waste time on "never ending argument".
