Actually the atheist has a very good point. How can a non existent God answer the prayer of a persistent unbeliever? I don't blame you for being speechless.

Do you ever wash your hands & feet, face Mecca & pray muslim style? If no why not is it not still prayer?

Nice interesting and educative video. As a British born and bred nigerian its good to learn the history of my country

advocate666: So, don't you think that the "holy water" or "annointing oil" of some pastors actually have some placebo healing effects on their members? You have to note that mosts placebos work depending on the faith the receiver places on the giver.

Ok let me just agree with you. Yes i do believe in the placebo effect as described by you but then all those miracles you see them performing on stage in front of TV audience are all STAGED! Also Doctors can administer medicine to their patients with the same effect even you and i should be able to do the same thing in the right circumstances

advocate666: Do you believe in placebo effects?

Yes I do

You have a very good point there. Did you checkout the top 10 atheist videos in the same box straight after the video? Lookout for number 3 that guy is SERIOUS!

Chubhie: i understand that organized religion is a scam. Do you believe there exists a physical and metaphysical worlds?

Don't really understand your question

Chubhie: dont you also think you are refering to scam or fake pastors?

No Pastors have supernatural powers or the ability to heal their members they are all scam as far as am concerned, they're just ordinary people like you and me but just talented actors and gifted when it comes to preaching

You must be referring to quack doctors in your part of the world. Where am based i have nothing to fear and can put my total faith in properly qualified Doctors. But don't put your faith in Pastors here dude a Pastor in Peckham told a few of his HIV members to ignore their doctors and forfeit their HIV drugs and rely on his prayers, well i don't need to mention what eventually happened

Yep there is no God so stop wasting your time worshipping an imaginary being no more church or mosque no more tithes just make the most of your time and enjoy your life.

I've submitted it but can't guarantee it'll make the homepage

Sad stories especially the last clip about the woman who lost her leg, but then these stories must be the exception and not the norm.

musKeeto: A request for Pagan9ja's thread to be submitted for frontpage review..

DONE!

Only in naija you can be arrested for taking pics with your friends at the airport. Only in naija person go see you for him presence & no say u don come from travel but still ask u weda u done come

traeces: The bible contains the word of God. It has the letter and also the spirit. The letter kills, it is the spirit that gives life(2 Cor3:6)
ATHEISTS AND OTHER NON-BELIEVERS ATTEMPT TO UNDERSTAND THE WORD OF GOD BY MAKING IT ADD UP LOGICALLY IN THAT THEY ERR AND WILL CONTINUE TO ERR.
It takes a spirit to percieve a spirit and there is nothing spiritual about logic. It is simply intellectual.

[b]So am expected to believe that I and the entire world's population of about nearly 7 billion are descendents from adam & eve? That we all spread across the planet from the garden of Eden & populated place like South America, Malaysia, India & Japan? If so my DNA is supposed to be traced back to the Garden of Eden instead of West Africa & why is our cultures not similar to the Jews since that is where we originated from

Sorry dude I cannot switch off my reasoning faculties & reason like like someone who just drank a whole bottle of the holy spirit I mean Jack Daniels. Its you who have a problem not me.

When am in Nigeria I keep my views on religion to myself but do drop hints on my stance.

^^^It could be from anybody. Even from a nice female nairalander that likes you.

^^^ It could be that you got a message that you'd already read only to receive a PM notice after reading the message. Its happened to me a few times.

toba: do u think science has the ans to everything?

Science is the way forwards, the bible is the way backwards.

frosbel: a lot of it has to do with parental upbringing - Especially for those who come from Christian homes

"Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it." - Proverbs 22:6


I keep telling parents like myself, you teach your children how to make it big in life and forget the most important thing which is the destiny of their souls.

Other secondary reasons :

- false doctrines
- bad role models in the church
- bad experiences




now let the insults start flying

You just reason through the box of your religion. Let Nigeria be the best country in the world, where crime dose not exist, where Muslims and Christians live in perfect peace and unity, where i can lose my fat wallet filled with hundreds of pounds and dollars with my I.D. and my wallet finds it way back to me in the hands of a religious person. I will still NEVER go back to being religious because no religion can explain the existence of the dinosaurs or that the planet is more than 6000 years old. The bible even says that the world is flat and you and i know thats not true.

Muslims will disown their children or even kill them if they foundout they foundout they left their religion to become a christian or atheist. Its called honour killing

Its already been moved to the Religion section. Check it again.
