@op,

"Eating grass" is definitely bad for humanity!!!

We are omnivorous

Martinez19:
Man is now too civilised for religion. Man can do good things without religion.

Man always could have. Man could write without books now, man can also do things without great many things but are there subtle reasons why we still cling to these?

That you can do without something doesn't necessarily make it useless in entirety or unneeded.

obinna58:
It's very bad In terms of their fvcking rules

Are rules found only in religions? Don't countries and other enterprises have rules?

Would you then also tag them as dangerous?

Chisos! Oga Johnny you don hang pen?

Not yet o na laziness dey worry me ni

hopefulLandlord:
can you elucidate sir

I was master of epistles until I became incurrably lazy...

hopefulLandlord:
religion was useful in times past but has outlived its usefulness

I still think religion is still useful and important to the world

gentlegenius:
Religion is the greatest SCAM that has enveloped our world.

Doesn't necessarily mean its bad for the world

A man comes along and declares himself son of God,everyone is skeptical and disbelieves. But a story in the bible about a virgin that got pregnant and had the son of God is more believable.. That is the irony of belief.

If you believe the story of Jesus, I see no reason why you can't believe this after all nothing stops the son of God from coming anytime or anyway he deems fit, yes?

I use the last point a lot, sometimes people might not just be in the mood to banter words

Mrphysics can we talk privately?

ameri9ja:
Atheists in the house, I truly want to know your answers to the following questions:
Without a supreme eternal being how are the following posssible:

1. How did we go from nothing existing to things existing?
2. How did things go from non-living to living?
3. How did things change from animals to man - in other words, how did man come about, being so completely different from other animals.

lalasticlala your 2 cents is needed
Seun, u r an atheist, no? Which other mods r atheists? Ishilove, mynd44 ?

I'd have loved to answer these questions but maybe i have become incurably lazy these days to write very long explanatory posts. probably why not reset the thread, if you make a new thread maybe a part two of this one mention me for.

darkhorizon:
You don't get the point,about 800 years ago,there was no other form of Christianity other than Catholicism.

This is wrong, there were several other Christian sects even much more later than that, example the Gnostic Christians that were predominant in Norther Africa

GodsMopol:
Loooooool, history were written by men Sir.

correct

Catholic has changed though, but in your opinion, what do you make of a misunderstood verse which expressly state that Mary was filled with Grace and if you ask any sane Christian about Grace, He would tell you Grace is Jesus Himself, meaning, Hail Mary, pregnant with Grace, the talk that Mary intercedes for Christians is another thing I despise.

Actually you are the one clearly mistaken here, By definition Grace means unmerited favour, Mary was accorded that favour. in order translations that same verse would be something like "Hail Mary, you have found favour in God's eyes"

So Grace here isn't talking about Jesus himself but rather the favour that was accorded Mary being elevated from humble beginning amongst all to be the path through which the Savior comes.

Verses on Jesus being Grace Titus 2:11, 2 corin8:9, John 1:14 and 17. There is only intercessor between the Father and the World 1 John 2:1, 1 Tim 2:5, Mary was not mentioned and it was only at death Jesus recognized Mary as a mother, Jesus even said, who is my mother, when she came with Jesus Mark 3:31-35.

Just up there you hoped to refute the claim about catholicism and christianity by citing that "history was written by man" then here you are quoting a bible also written by man, as a matter of fact the bible is also given to you by the institution of the catholic church.

GodsMopol:
I was steering at the horizon this morning and I was like, a place as big as this and someone is saying big bang. We have so many planetary bodies that even science can't explore until Jesus come, and one person somewhere is satisfied with Big Bang. We have resources, this world is too complex, some said we are from Apes, my ear don full

Yea, I have this to add. We all have used earpiece all our lives and we can count the number of earpiece we have used so much, but it never cease to amaze me how I would buy a new earpiece ever 2 month, sometimes, 1 week, and at times 1 day, the earpiece don spoil. Now, we live in a world where the veins of our body, if places end to end would span 60,000 miles and NOT ONE HAS BROKEN ALL THIS 15-120 YEARS OF OUR EXISTENCE.

At least try and make it coherent, the post has no bearing, no point to hold on to and no actual premise to discuss. what exactly are we supposed to do with this?

felixomor:
Ignorant responses everywhere.


There are atheists who believe in satan

untrue, satan is also a deity

There are Atheists who practice wicca and witchcraft
There are atheists who believe in spirits.....

broadly true and though arguably a small percentage

And many more.....
The only problem atheists seem to have is God and we know why.

still untrue

Sighs

So many religion especially Semitic rooted religions like Christianity and Islam looks forward to the end of the world, a sinister idea that should disturb the peace of any humane mind.

Perhaps half aware that their unsupported arguments are not entirely persuasive, or uneasy by their greedy accumulation of temporal power and wealth.

They have never ceased to proclaim the end of the world about judgement and Apocalypse throughout history which has always never ceased to fail.

No one is doing any word exchange with you . Stop creating imaginary scenes .



I posted a video . My buddies told jokes and I replied and you are getting all worked up . Abeg shift .

ok

Richirich713:
U should be informing the atheists here on nairaland on that, they seem to think that. Me quoting newton is a respond to them.

Ok

KingEbukasBlog:
This is from someone who always tells me to stop being petty?

Grow up !

I am sorry if I disappoint you by not delving into the word exchange you'd want.

I've learnt to say what needs to be said and move on and leave word bantering.

So I'm done. Just enjoy it with people who have that energy and time, I don't.

Call me when there is something to discuss though...

Go through these topics and tell me if I haven't done all these . Last time , I brought idealism but it was too much for you guys apparently . So what would a brother do ? Talk to himself ?

And don't forget all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy . You seem to be taking this thing far too serious , but somehow you accuse me of committing the same act you me accuse me of .

Anyway, atheists do have Attention Deficit Disorder . Because these debates have been addressed ad nauseum . You are only proving my point monsieur .

Its a global thing , a global phenomenon . In fact , its like a network of foolishness

Why do you always create a thread with lots of potential to be something then go right ahead and ridicule it, troll your own thread and make it very childish.

these are very emotional games you all play here, there isn't any reason to get all touchy and worked up, hiding vulnerability behind mockery doesn't make it any less apparent.

Why not start making threads for discussions and learning, healthy arguments and debates. where people can disagree in very hard ways but still with the maximum respect for the other person and their person.

this whole thing you are doing right here, is a pity

Richirich713:
Isaac Newton: "Atheism is so senseless."

Widely recognised as one of the most influential scientists of all time and a key figure in the scientific revolution. Regarded by many as the greatest scientist to ever lived.

There is no special reason to credit "science" as the source or father of "reason". Take for instance the case of Nazi physicians, a commitment to experiments and evidences does not guarantee immunity to superstition.

Sir Isaac Newton was prey to one of the most ridiculous opinions on Alchemy which at this age not withstanding his reputation as one of the fathers of modern science we still regard those opinions on alchemy to be idiotic.

Joseph Priestly who discovered oxygen, not withstanding his courage in skepticism was a believer in the Phlogiston theory.

Russel Alfred Wallace co-pioneer of the evolutionary theory along with Charles Darwin was a committed attender of spiritualist sessions where "ectoplasm" was produced by fraudulent cheap tricks to the applause of morons.

Even till this day there are still some men of science who still cling to some unsupported superstition or the other, so being a scientific genius doesn't automatically make every of your opinions correct or even any less idiotic if wielded by an average person out there.

felixomor:
U want to help him answer?

Oh God, No!!! Common mehhn...

felixomor:
Is that why u had to first utter ignorance up there?
Pls explain

Jesus christ !! are you serious right now? WTF!!!

lol nawa o

Jhaytee4all:
They would say "there is God o" or they would want to kill themselves for not believing in the existence of God. as it says in Revelations 6. In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will desire to die, and death will flee from them.

what would you say if you are an atheist? Jesus foretells that; Matthew 24:21; For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.
There will be troubles like neveer before after the rapture.the world war3 would take place.

wetin atheists go do na? you won't escape it.

My Only regret as an atheist is that i won't be able to tell you; "i told you so" after we are dead

That picture is Agbo not Edet
