Christianity Etc1st Of April Is The Day Atheist Celebrate Their Day by michaelfriday44(op): 12:15am On Apr 03, 2017
Christmas. Basant . Diwali . Eid al- Adha . Easter.
Yom Kippur. Vesak . Hanukkah . Ramadan . There
is no shortage of religious holidays celebrated
every year. According to recent studies, there are
approximately 7. 1 billion people currently living in
this world , 31% of whom are Christians , 23% of
whom are Muslims, 13% of whom are Hindus, and
almost 7% of whom are Buddhists. There are also
millions of other people who follow religions such
as Judaism , Jainism and Spiritism .
But what about those of us who do not believe in
a god or gods ? An estimated 2% of the world ’ s
population does not adhere to any religion. So
why don ’ t they get to have any holidays ? Just
because 142 million people don ’ t believe in God,
does mean they don’ t like to have a good time ,
right ?
The History of Atheist Day
The origins of Atheist Day can be traced back to
a spoof story that was published on the internet
in 2003. Atheist Day was originally about a
fictional case of an Atheist who had decided to
sue the government. The reason for the fictional
lawsuit was a simple one—unlike all the major
religions, there was no day for Atheists, to which
the judge said that April 1st ( i .e . April Fool’ s Day )
was their holiday. While this case was just a
hoax, the story spread quickly and was actually
accepted as fact . Although the day is best known
to be an occasion for pranks , Atheists in fact
claimed the day for their own as well. And then
they did something very their style : they decided
to claim it doesn ’ t actually exist , after all !
How to Celebrate Atheist Day
There isn ’ t actually a defined way of celebrating
Atheist Day , though many use the occasion to
show their lack of faith, and /or initiate theological
debate . Since Atheism is still a controversial
subject in some places , it ’ s an opportunity to
increase awareness of the whole topic. Debates
about religion have a bad reputation for their
propensity to get out of hand and turn into
arguments rather easily , but it’ s high time we
changed that anyway . Religion is a fascinating
topic , full of history and ancient wisdom , so if you
are in fact an atheist , you could take a bit of time
on this day to have an in- depth conversation with
a religious friend or family member to find out
what exactly they believe in and why . What they
have to say is guaranteed to supply you with
plenty of food for thought . On the other hand , if
you’ re a religious person , you could spend some
time talking to your atheist friends or family
members and find out what his or her reasons
are for seeing the world the way they do . People
who decide to leave their religion behind, a part of
their lives that may well have been a large and
important one before , often have many reasons
for making that decision. There is no need for
either party to try to convince the other , as that
will likely not work, anyway . Still , the discussion
between a believer and a non -believer has the
potential to be a deep and and informative one
that will motivate all of those participate in it to
entertain some ideas and thoughts they may not
have had before . And broadening one’ s worldview
has never hurt anyone!


Only a fool says their is no God. 1st April is
justified concerning them

PoliticsBello,The Scourge Of Kogites:the whole educational sector on strike by michaelfriday44(op):
In the words of Socrates "No man
undertakes a trade he has not
learned, even the meanest; yet
everyone think himself sufficiently
qualified for the hardest of all trades,
government". Aristotle once taught
his student, Alexander the great in
this words "To rule well, you must
first be ruled(taught). Hence, the
mystery behind Bello's inadequacy is
unravelled though it is quite
surprising and sickening to
experience this leadership of an
inauthentic governor: The ungainly
and ungoverned Governor Yahaya
Bello's government has been one
characterized with food insecurity,
moral ineptitude, ruckus and
flummoxed activities. This is
accountable with the fact that GYB is
a neophyte in handling governmental
proceedings which is as a result of
the fact that he has never genuinely
been under any leadership training
which is a prerequisite for good
leadership as stated by Socrates and
Aristotle among many philosophers.
Not every one has the ability to lead.
GYB may be a business tycoon. Fine!
But not a leader. Who is a leader?
Since time began and years turn into
centuries, leaders have been known
to be individuals who have the
interest of the people at heart; they
are purposeful, innovative, wise,
loving and caring. God saw this
attributes inherent in Moses and
chose him to lead the Israelites out
of Egypt. Alexander the great, the
prodigious Grecian emperor was a
great lover of the people as well. An
emperor who single-handedly
sponsored the marriage of 10000 of
his troops. Little wonder, he
conquered more land than any of his
predecessors or contemporaries.
There are many other renowned
personalities who went through
series of heinous training to emerge
as remarkable and incredible legends
but space evades me to list them
herein. All the heroes and great
leaders the world have ever produced
were individuals who puts the people
interest first: GYB may be purposeful
and innovative but lacks a concerned
heart for the people which accounts
for his tyrannous tenure. The worst
offence a leader can commit against
the led is to be insensitive to their
predicament as it is the case with
GYB's regime who has deafened his
ear to the wail of the poor masses.
What a leadership? It really sucks!
The words of Dwight D. Eisenhower
tingles and makes me sober; for it is
the emblem of our experience, he
wrote "Every house that's built, every
new car bought, every case won in
court are in the final sense
sponsored with theft from public
fund; from those who hunger and are
not fed, those who are cold and are
not clothed, this rich and pompous
politicians are not spending money
alone but are also spending the
sweat of the labourers(civil servants),
the genius of stars and the hope of
the nation's youth. This is not a way
of life in any through sense". Such a
pitiable dismal where the stipends
due to civil servants are not given to
them; a total disgrace and mayhem
where the welfare of the youth is
neglected and are left to wander on
the street. All the students and pupils
in the public education sector are at
home. What's this about? What a
world where the strong are unjust,
the weak insecured and peace
unpreserved? For how long are we
going to continue in Aristocracy and/
or Autocracy in the guise of
democracy. In democracy, there is a
balance of power between the
leaders and the will of the people;
this is absent in the politics we
practice in this state.
Relating Bello's governance with that
of some monarchs. Just as they were
good leaders in time past, they were
mean and acrimonious leaders whose
reign were calamitous. Because of
the volume of this article, I'll limit my
analogy in brevity to the reign of
emperor Nero and King Chaka of the
Zulu kingdom in particular. Nero
A.D54-AD68 is one of the most
infamous men history has ever
recorded: A man who killed his own
mother, and his first wife. His reign
was characterized with bloodshed,
famine, confiscation of properties in
the name of rebuilding a city he
deliberately sets on fire. He
unleashed a financial strain on the
people through extortion and
nonpayment of wages and cared not
about the citizens. He was being
venerated by some sycophants just
like those around GYB who has
programmed his political career for
moribund. The story changed in AD
68, when the praetorian guard, the
force responsible for the emperor's
safety renounced their soccour and
loyalty to him and was later declared
as enemy of the populace by the
same Senators that commended him
when he was perpetrating evil.
King Chaka was abhorred and
despised because he treated his
subject with disdain and levity. He
was nonchalant, noncommittal and
possessed inhumane character
towards his people.
The trio share one thing in common
which is the characterization of their
leadership with famine, untold
hardship, sorrow, dismality, academic
stagnancy and insecurity. God have
mercy on our dear state. May we
never experience a governor such as
this.
Before my continuance, I love to
correct an impression here
beforehand: To the great and ever
brave people of Ebiraland, this is not
about political or tribal differences
but about the suffering masses under
the governorship of one who is not
worthy of our followership.
Initially, I was saying "wetin concern
me? " and was refraining from
activism. Little did I know that it is
only a coward who can and will not
take a side on matters that concerns
even oneself. Edward R. Murrow
posits and I quote "A nation of sheep
begets a government of wolves". We
keep mute for the fear death,
humiliation, imprisonment while
injustice prevails. It was never like
this in the era of Cicero, Abraham
Lincoln, Nelson Mandela e.t.c. I fear
for this generation; I fear that ours
will be one that cannot stand for
what is right. Alan Moore stated that
"people should not be afraid of their
government rather the government
should be afraid of her people ".
From time past, government have
been afraid and circumspective in
matters regarding the populace
because they know what an angry
mob can do if they stands as one.
This spirit of solidarity is gradually
going into extinction and it heightens
my fear of a muted, directionless,
educated, strong but yet pitiable
generation. Say no to tyrannism;
stand up for justice irrespective of
gender, tribe and language.
Be cautious of beguiled appraisal as
regards GYB's governance and as an
individual be compelled to scrutinize
reasonably this impertinent
governance, a yoke called
newdirection which is an emblem of
stagnancy, shame and befuddlement.
God bless Kogi state!
God bless Nigeria!
