In my mother tongue
God is “Olorun”



I BELIEVE IN GOD
But I don’t believe in religion
Quote me!
My name is Olugbenga and I’m not a terrorist
If you ask some of my friends they will tell you I’m a Christian some will say moslem
I don’t have time to make friends because of religions


Your religion doesn’t depict your behavior
Some people go to church to get new girls number
Some go to mosque to get money from their Alhaji daddy

I repeat again It will not be better for any fanatic

NosaJBourne:
Just like the post above you

Hahaha. U know the story

The best strategy is not to reply, mention or quote daft posts. Let's be disciplined guys. Let's stick to the plan.

Dshiloh:
Just saw this on Twitter

Nothing to see here, just normal nigerian wickedness level and not giving a shit about the masses.

This thread has gotten so toxic to the extent that no matter how daft a post someone drops you will be like "this is it" only for you to see that stupid post gaining likes. Geez.
In fact the mods should lock this thread up.

bobowaja:
I wish all of us could have get together one of these weekends. Positive and negative energies monikers... Make everybody print him name for front and back of him shirt.

Las las na war go end am. That na if war no start am sef. Cos some peeps here deserve better blows and planks for head.

Some people would go home badly injured that day. That I am sure of

At this juncture, I think it would be better for my state of mind if nnpc would come out and openly announce that they have scrapped this recruitment and we should forget about it. Than this endless waiting. SMH

I was expecting to see Seyi Makinde at the top of this list.

Eggovic:
Boss man no vex. Katakata no be pomade

U sabi

Eggovic:
Okay
Just saying it as it is

Baba u dey try. U still dey respond to the guy.

Eggovic:
He never avoided his call. He said he had been busy with meetings

Abeg no dey explain to this guy. Was he not here when he later came to talk about the kasala involved. Like say him dey pay the guy for info.

Naa even that guy wey appear to agree with am dey vex me now. U know urself cos I I belive his is a lost case already.

Please who can get in touch with nairaland mods, their attentions are needed here. This mofo and some silly nitwits that agree or even seem to remotely agree with him need to be banned permanently the way LASG ban okada. Nonsense.

Napolitano2012:
Actually, there is no need setting fire to the rain. This thread is becoming a joke. It's quite clear to me it's not worth it. I laugh when someone would accuse me of looking for LIKES when I give an info... Likes on Nairaland? To even think that the latest informant is being attacked is funny, thought he was untouchable..

and like I've noticed some people say here, "it's high time we start keeping our info to ourselves and allow everybody wait for their apl in peace".. but still we still get called out later for any info at all.. which one we dey?

I understand but please like Jarus did, he faced the person that was talking trash. Not everyone is that stupid. We appreciate being informed by you and the rest others even though nnpc might still change things back door. Selah

Honestly I wonder what the mods are doing. He should be banned already

At this juncture I'm convinced this nitwit is no one else but Beam.

NosaJBourne:
Maybe when I'm DEAD, I will join your group. I am not DEAD yet.

Perfect reply.

hupernikao:
Forget posting link. You dont need to tell me if you are an atheist or not. Your language structure, conversation, flow of explanation and your latent sentiments are enough to show you arent. But you can keep believing you are.

Like i told you, you will find answers someday as you keep seeking with an open mind.

Lol, I was once a Christian (like you, maybe). I took part in these kind of arguments and progressed from being rigid to being flexible to keeping an open mind to atheism. But what set me apart from friends that are still Christians today is that I always engaged honestly. Hopefully, your mind will open to the deception of religion and you'll be free someday.

Please I would advise no one to quote that fo*l again. Starve him of the attention he earnestly craves for. In fact, let us all collectively report the account. One, Two, Ready .....Gooooo

hupernikao:
Atheist is the most misused word on Nairaland.

Fortunately for you, from you discussions here, it is obvious you arent an atheist, you are just a believer looking for answers to some unanswered questions.
Keep an open mind as you keep seeking for answers.

I am an atheist and you might want to educate yourself on the strict meaning: https://www.atheists.org/activism/resources/about-atheism/

jaephoenix:
Newton didn't believe in god

How does this say he doesnt belive in God? Him not holding orthodox Christian views does not in any way mean he didn't belive in God.

For the records though I am atheist.

Ekemeze:
WE have read extensively about BIG BANG theory and evolution, we've been taught in school as well, but how do you expect someone(like me) who has witnessed many miracles, i get to see some things before they happen in my life, i pray and i see positive change, and u expect me not to believe that some supernatural being exist?

Because miracles are made up. Non of your pastors or whoever can demonstrate miracles in public. When asked they'll tell you God works in mysterious ways. That's the trick and modus operandi of snake oil salesmen

Check this out, proponents of christianity.

OKOATA:
See bro am not going to click any link, religion has no hold on me. Believe is a choice, I am my own god actually, I am the master of my fate and the captain of my soul. I am who I say I am, I am my own creation and I am my own God. I am a very spiritual person, I believe so much beyond the physical into the supernatural. There are things beyond human thinking, demons and angels exist, if those spiritual beings exist so why shouldn’t God exist. To me actually Mother Nature is God and God is Mother nature. I dream so many times and when I wake up the things I dreamt happens that same day or sometimes I see visions and it happens almost immediately. Only if one can tap into the supernatural and stop looking beyond the physical before you can understand what nature and God is all about.

Lol if we are to go by this line of thought, anyone can claim anything and it won't do well to move us forward. So please re-examine these statements.

mrZENographer:
Be it supernatural/natural, for you what makes it a fact is that it must be recorded for others to see before they/you would believe. This approach is flawed and folly.
A supernatural phenomenon is much harder, unique, sometimes unexpected to come by or explain.
If you find it hard to present evidence of physical phenomenon, how much harder would it be for those you are demanding to provide evidence of their paranormal plight which may have come unexpected or too scared to even remember to take a pic, or an invisible encounter or subconcious encounter.

same thing a snake oil sales man would say because his claims are made up, but continue.

SenatorJChris:
All nah wash. No letter was printed actually. How can an organization print employment letters and store in their warehouse? Who does that!

What do you want?

OKOATA:
Nope am not going to be an atheist because I believe so much in God.

Lol why do you believe in God. Religion still has a hold(maybe subtle) on you that you are not honest enough to admit. I see. You might want to check out this link https://www.atheists.org/activism/resources/about-atheism/

OKOATA:
Nope I don’t, I am not religious. I do believe in God but am a spiritual person. I think most of the stories in the Bible aren’t true, so the story of hell is just to create fear and panic into the minds of the masses.

Oh great. You are one step away from atheism then.

mrZENographer:
@larride lol, don't mind him. I asked one of them to prove that he took his bath yesterday and he cut off the conversation with silly excuses why he couldn't prove it, lol.

He can't prove a physical thing. Yet he's demanding videos before he believe other people's testimonies of experiencing the supernatural. I told him, if you count 100% of these testimonies as untrustworthy, then you yourself is 100% untrustworthy.

Lol taking ones bath is not a supernatural or outlandish claim that can be easily replicated unlike miracles that involve raising the dead and the likes. So it shouldn't be part of this argument in the first place.
