[quote author=Bélla3]Even though i agree with you, and even think children shouldnt be baptised until they are 12 so they knw what they're initiated to. Am just amazed on why an athiest is bothered on who a grown adult shud listen to.[/quote]Keep defending foolishness!


What is an adult going to learn from an 11 year old about sex, marriage, business etc? Allowing such foolishness to go without criticism is sign of a wicked heart.

@topic,
atheists do not have a common universal belief system. Even the humanism stuff you wrote about is not an atheistic belief system as there are atheists that do not support that school of thought.
Apart from disbelief in God, there is nothing else that atheists everywhere share the same opinion. Even theists(christians and muslims) with their religious books and doctrines don't have one single thing bringing them together, they still have sects and all what not.
Sometimes it is a blessing in disguise not to be from the 3 major tribes.......


Fellis, would you go to an atheist convention?

Avicenna: You know I opened a thread once asking how to tackle religionists. I m going to be Nigeria's foremost aggressive atheist. Beat you to it.

the advice I got was to acquire money and power. Once I do that, You will hear of me.
But if I don't, well, I will try my best with my family.smiley
Yes ooo! In Naija, one needs money and power to influence and move forward!
Christianity EtcRe: What Brings Atheists Together? by MacDaddy01(op): 4:47pm On Aug 29, 2012
Avicenna: Ahh, macdaddy, that's not what I meant. I said I will attend a naija atheist convention, didn't I?

I'm not interested in looking for atheists in my vicinity right now. I live in a rather small town. I don't think there will be any.

Maybe when I'm in Lagos, or settled in Lagos, by all means, I will know some atheists. Atleast to discuss how to promote humanism and reason.
No problem.


I will see what I can do about this atheist/humanist convention. I havent been to Nigeria in over a year. Lagos here i come!

plaetton: yeah, I remember when a 17 yr old mormon boy came to preach to me. I stopped him halfway and asked him whether he had ever read the Quoran, he said no. I asked whether had ever read the Vedas, of Confucious or of Paraselsus, he repelied that he had never heard of them. So I asked him what kinds of literature he has read to gain knowledge, replied that he had only been reading the bible.

So I mildly scolded him and asked him why for someone who was yet to attend college, who has read nothing outside the religion of his parents, what exactly qualified him to preach to anyone about life.
lol.......I have a soft spot for Mormon preachers. The are always calm when debating with you. I dont believer their BS but I like openness to debates!

onetrack: In addition, the word 'humanism' is probably less threatening a word than 'atheism'. Atheism is still a pretty shocking word to use in many parts of the world; even many newly-minted atheists have trouble using that word to describe themselves (myself included, back when..). Humanist is somehow a more acceptable word to use in the general population.
I see.
Christianity EtcRe: What Brings Atheists Together? by MacDaddy01(op): 1:40pm On Aug 29, 2012
onetrack: Humanist organizations tend to fill the role of an atheist 'mission' or an organization. They don't strictly toe the atheist line but by and large their members are atheist or agnostic, and they do engage in various activities.
Thank you!


I think secular humanism can play such a role.

deols: You all fail to realise it is an Islam for Muslims section.

While I am not very aware of what led to d creation of the section, it has been there and would remain InshaAllah. Once you are not a Muslim, you shuldn't be found there and if there, you should be less of a trouble maker.
Backtracking much?


Keep censoring for islam. I am happy that many are disgusted by the bigotry and intolerance coming from the islam section.

By the way, how nice of you to feign ignorance on the shameful situation that led to the creation of the islam section. An islamic death threat.

While I do think that the multiple id excuse isnt genuine enough, I very much agree you'v bn constituting nuisance. That topic moved to the diaries section isnt worth nada of anyone's time but I already gave a reply to it on the other thread you created asking Muslims to judge d mod. can you tell us how many threads yu'v opened concerning the mod, even opening one to sing for him. that is what being a nuisance is.
Satire is lost on a religionist.

However, if your argument is that the Islam section is off limits to all non muslims, then you have no shame. Since when does Islam have to be treated differently from other religions? You have exposed yourself as a bigot and you have lost all respect from me.

dorox: As a christian it is my opinion that it is very wrong for a child of that age to be teaching adults. A child of that age can't posses much understanding of the scriptures beyond the very shallow if at all any. In other words beyond parroting the words jesus loves you and john 3:16 along with a few other boiler plate verses and the promise of miracles as well as speaking in a cacophonous tongues of gibberish, he knows nothing.
Jesus did not start his ministry until he became an adult, his deciples were all adults. You might ask about Jesus being in the temple when he was just twelve years old, but do realise that he was there to learn and not to teach like that little boy. It was the depth of his questions that the adults around him found amazing.

So when next you read the bible, pray to God for proper understanding.

oiseworld: seun should look into banning especially inthe islamic section. We are in a civilized world where common sense rules.

I must confess Maclantunji or what ever he's called is becoming too strict, exactly like islam it self. I remember commenting on an islamic discuss that was brought to the front page only for my post to be hidden. I felt like 'What'! What just happened ? If you don't want people commenting why bring it to the front page? And even if not on the front page, must nairaland islam be as strict as the saudi arabian laws, why are we then on the internet.

I pray God delivers that reli....n.

Christianity EtcWhat Brings Atheists Together? by MacDaddy01(op): 11:30am On Aug 29, 2012
few days ago, I expressed my disbelief in religion to a girl who used to know me as a christian. We were colleagues some years back and she knew me as a christian then but she was an atheist. She comes from a country in Asia that is highly atheistic.

We hadnt seen each other for over a year and after seeing each other we went to have coffee (I hate coffee angry) together. This girl hardly sows emotions due to a traditional Asian culture she grew up in. When I told her that I was done from christianity, she smiled. It was rare for her to smile at a controversial topic of religion. We both paused for a moment and looked at each other as if we both had confessed that we were in love to each other...................if at this point, you are hoping for the story to get romantic or for me to mention that we kissed, go to the romance section angry


I told this story because I have two contrasting thoughts now. ~The first thought was that getting atheist together for a convention would be difficult as atheists are only held together by a disbelief in god. However, a disbelief in god was able to start something between two platonic people.


So what can bring atheists together, is a disbelief enough or we need to have something more?
Christianity EtcRe: The Odd Side Of Christianity; Child Preachers by MacDaddy01(op): 11:01am On Aug 29, 2012
cyrexx: thats one bad thing about religion:

step 1: demand that you deactivate your brain's reasoning mode to be a true follower.

step 2: demand you believe their "truths" by faith, however unreasonable it sounds.

if you can believe one thing by faith, then you can believe anything by faith.
otherwise, those christians wont believe an 11 year old is able to know about life more than experienced adults.

but i understand why, it because their "reasoning mode" has been effectively de-activated.
I only half agree with you. What you say is true but it only happens in one side of the brain. This is why some intelligent people can still be christian.


I have a theory that religion partitions the brain in many people. There is the rational side of the brain that rejects other religion/fairytales and allows christians to do their jobs eg student lawyer, politician. There is also the irrational side that is controlled by the religion that accepts any fairyfale the religion espouses.

I was like this as a christian. A very bright student who could demolish people in debates on economics, marketing and politics. However, I still believed that Jesus was from a vrigin mother. That partition came falling down like the berlin wall on the fateful day that I met a racist drunkard who told me that blacks are cursed and the worship in a religion so wicked to them. After reading about christianity and slavery, that partition in my mind was gone forever- no more mental gymnastics for christianity

However, there is the phenomenon of child preachers in christianity- especially in pentecostal American churches. The lastest child preacher celebrity is one Ezekiel Stoddard who is only 11 years old but is an ordained minister in his family's church. Ezekiel preaches to a lot of people.


The question remains why someone would listen to advice on faith and human relationships from a prepubescent boy. Maybe it is the holy ghost maybe it is foolishness. I rest my case on the latter.

Yaweh sent Jesus to kill himself.

I am sure that Igbagbo will not be faith to every yoruba person.

So that you know, I do not get bugged down with whatever anyone does with his life. As i remind you, I also remind myself.

I never said you were never a muslim. But to say Allahu Akbar is authentically the last word/expression of muslims gives me the window that your knowledge of Islam is not really sound: The messenger [sa] says whosoever says Laa ilaha ilAllah as his last word will definitely enter Jannah.


There is no place that Allahu Akbar should be the last statement. So when every muslim goes to bed he/she says Laa ilaha ilAllah.


Actually, I will love to meet you in 9ja and go to your home and break the news to your parents. What do you say?

so what ? How is His changing the laws on a moral stance wrong ? Or do you suppose he should have left it that way for consistency ? Besides he wouldn't be omnipotent if he could not effect changes. There are instances where God changed his mind on an issue (eg the destruction of Nineveh)and there is nothing wrong with that. Lemme ask you a question. Given man's evolutionary history will inbreeding not have occurred ?
If Logicboy was God, he would have created millions of people in the first place instead of two.
