Am an Agnostic, a term am not really proud of. But am left with no choice because, as regards the authentencity and absolute certainty about the existence of a creator/personal God, i am not sure.

Too all that believe in God that he sure exist and He directs the affairs of men, I will so appreciate if u can tell me a Benefit/gains in believing in God.

This can be a turnaround for some of us on the fence

Mcdonelldouglas:
i know all that. My question is, is a plane that hat has left the solid earth still on the solid spinning earth? I reckon not. How can a plane fly above a spinning earth and find its destination, or does the earth spin around with its atmosphere. This will mean a headwind, cross or constant tail wind on the plane. From experience i know that wind direction changes and does not move in the direction of the so called earths rotation.

Mcdonelldouglas:
If the earth spins at 465.1 m/s or 1675 km/h at the equator, take a plane into the air for 1 hour and tell me where your destination airport will be found? Or perhaps your takeoff runway should vanish beneath you, since its doing about 465.1m/s.

It is called Uniformed speed.

A body at rest inside a body in motion moves at uniformed speed with the body in motion and so it appears to be at rest because the uniformed speed of the body at rest (inside the body in motion) cancels the speed of the body in motion.

Like when you are in a moving bus, you are a body at rest but the bus is a body in motion.

Inside the bus you are at rest but moves at uniformed speed with the bus so to you, you are seating one place in the bus but as a matter of fact you are in motion due to the effect of the motion of the bus which you are inside, without looking out of the window everything inside the bus appears to be at rest to you even the floor of the bus of which you stand appear to be still while the bus is moving.

The only time you will notice a drastic change to your own perception of your motion is if the bus grounds to a sudden halt.

So the sole reason why the earth appear not to be moving to you is because you are at uniformed speed with it, you are inside it so you are moving with it.. 465.1m/s[size=20]/[/size]465.1m/s you can only notice this speed if the earth grounds to a sudden halt.

It's a joy ride bro, try to enjoy it like i am

If u would like to know, Morality is part & parcel of religion; You can't detach Morality from Religion and vice versa. It's religion that introduced Morality into the society, before it now becomes part of our life.
And since it has become part of human life, atheist may act according to the moral obligations of his society. Therefore, "Morality" for atheists (that have it) is an inherited quality which actually stems from "Religion".

Morality is a product of religion What type of people do i really have to deal with everyday on nairaland exactly.

Religion is a product of the society and not the other way round. . . Before man started settling together into a community everyone lived in autonomy.

When these people began settling close to each other, there was need for ethics and mutual behaviours towards each other, that is the advent of morality.

Religion and Politics were later additions to human society and these two emanated from the need to ensure people conform to the expected norms of the new society which was vital for mutual coexistence.

That is how Morality and order beget Politics (Law of state) and religion (Alleged law of God to make sure people obeyed) And these development led to the emergence of Civilizations and leadership which culminated into monarchs. . History 101

Asserting Religion beget morality is like asserting Politics beget morality or you beget your mother.... I think you need a lesson down historical antiquities so you would stop making such ludicrous naive assertions next time.

Morality is neither Islamic anymore than it is Hindu or christian, Morality is human. It belongs to no ism and is not dependent on any book, creed or supernatural claims for foundation because morality itself is a foundation

You really like defending that guy though

tartar9:
Even if we sent down the angels to
them; even if the dead spoke to them;
even if we summoned every miracle
before them; they cannot believe
unless GOD wills it. Indeed, most of
them are ignorant (Qur'an 6:111)

hahn:
That guy can't even compose simple sentences. He doesn't need an education yet, he needs schooling first

Am still wondering which one is atheist morality

That guy just doesn't realize what copy and paste has done to him, he should learn to start reading instead of just lifting stupendous materials from websites and pasting them without even reading them..

Anyhow anyhow he just needs a little brain upgrade

malvisguy212:
hypocrite. According to atheists morality , they are right , why will a christian condemned what is right for some people ?

menesheh:
That's the problem. Laziness to engage life inevitable problems and unforseen circumstances is so problematic to we youths indoctrinated with these weird idea of imagery satan, hell, heaven, sin etc.

menesheh:
Why won't atheists comment?

kevoh:
First pic, looks like the paper was snapped while placed infront of a large poster-ish picture of Mecca, the second one is quite obvious that the eff you cee kay writings were falsely manipulated and inserted. Nice and funny trick though!

Nairaland atheist was first to comment on this thread with an unbiased mind as usual. Get a grip of your obsession with atheists, Sir!

dalaman:
What kind of puerile logic is this?

malvisguy212:
answer this question:
Why will men invent a 'God' that set an uphill task on them on how to attain Holiness? Read other religion way of salvation, others religion say salvation is by human effort meaning I just need to do Good and ignore God grace, BUT in Christianity, it say" our holiness is as filty in God eyes" meaning we need to DO MORE. Does it look like invented God ?

malvisguy212:
I create this thread , not that I am not convinced in my belief in God, I was only trying as much as I can to guide people who satan want to used you and your cohorts to deceive the innocent. This is the last days, and just as the bible say, in the last days, men will fall , and many of the believers will depart the faith.

malvisguy212:
Just as I said in the other thread:

“The Bible must be the invention either of good men or angels, bad men
or devils, or of God. However, it was not
written by good men, because good men would not tell lies by saying ‘Thus saith the Lord;’ it was not written by bad men because they would not write about doing good duty,while condemning sin,and themselves to hell; thus, it must be written by divine inspiration”

malvisguy212:
trash!!! And the bad men will condemned there self to Hell? The Good men will tell lies? Nonsense logic

tartar9:
stop lying there.xtianity and anthropomorphism that is one and the same.no other religion presents a more unique and logical idea of God than in Islam.

malvisguy212:
In 2 Timothy 3:16, we are told that all Scripture is inspired. The word used for inspiration is theopneustos which means “God-breathed,” implying that what was written had its origin in God Himself. In 2 Peter 1:21 we read that the writers were “carried along” by God. Thus, God used each writer, including his personality to accomplish a divinely authoritative work, for God cannot inspire error.
