Hey the party started without me , I came online to notice a thread like this is on.
I just can't laugh enough at this dim witted theists , they are a bunch of confused hypocrites. Who needs an excuse to commit sin , definately not the atheist , who regards all men as equals. The extermination of a whole tribe because they are unbelievers or for whatever reason , yet we are the ones looking for an excuse to commit sin. I put to you if the stories in the bible are real the greatest sinner would be , yeah you got it , God himself and would be held accountable for billions of deaths around the world. The fact he was able to prevent sins and other calamities but chose not to is a sin itself (sin of omission). Atheist tend to be the most morally upright individuals and do not indulge in the sins listed in your holy books not because we fear your gods/Gods but because we don't see any gain in it.
I'll ask these questions again - who are the unbelievers , what are your beliefs ?world. The fact he was able to prevent sins and other calamities but chose not to is a sin itself (sin of omission).

Slow down! it's just us two here now! What's your question?

Re: Question For Atheists And Religious People by Nobody: 1:01am On Aug 23, 2011
And as an Intelligent being, does that make sense to you, or you just want to believe that?

Sadly I can't stay online for long as I'm past my bedtime but if you are in the mood for enlightenment we can continue much later in the days , cheers and don't do what I'd not do.

Re: Question For Atheists And Religious People by Nobody: 1:12am On Aug 23, 2011
It sure makes more sense than an invisible God who can't be questioned and conjured up the universe out of nothing. If you want me to prove to you the chaos theory and inexistence of your God I'll be glad to do that but that will be much later in the day. I hope you can prove the existence of your God , I'm sure to get a kick out of this.

No wahala! the things he has created alone PROVES that he exists! just take a peep into your own body! Everything seems to be in the right places! Look at the Miracle of life! Look at your five senses. There's got to be a better explanation than that all those things came about by chance! Have you looked in depth in to the formation of a human baby from just a single male sp[b]e[/b]rm and a single egg! And then after 9 months you have a baby? Is that by chance or did someone actually program things to work that way? How do you know you are past your bedtime? your body, right? it reminded you to go sleep, right? Who put that biological clock in the body? Did it all come from randomness? or chaos? The chaos theory was formulated by a HUMAN! using things that were already existing! Is there any invention of man that was not from things already on the earth? What CHAOS would know that all these things would be useful to another product of chaos?

Really looking forward to that discussion! cheesy cheesy

@fellow atheists, don't waste a minute of your time replying that SEXKILLD character. Judging by all the copy and paste messages he's spamming nairaland with, it's obvious his feeble brain isn't getting adequate nourishment. He DOESN'T even understand the questions he's pasting and neither can he defend them. He's defined by two words : DUMB and DUMBER! ! ! Please, I urge you all not to bother wasting mental resources on the proven dummy. Thanks.

Sexkill was sent by his god to ruin the topic. , see what bible made him do. How could people live their lives through a manuscript thats bondage in itself and they talk of freedom. Even if I'm to be in a religion I need a 2012 version of the bible that includes computers, internet laws etc. I guess most of the old scripts where just political materials to govern the people and put them on check and nothing more. But then we have the new constitutions which are always updated. Moses 10 commandment for example was just to put order in place after their escape from Egypt I always tell people that. And its not from some fairy gods. You will see those are just basic laws , open your eyes!

Irony alert. Cant fathom how God could create the earth out of nothing but believes the earth appeared out of nothing anyway. The difference of course is that he couches his ideas in flowery scientific nonsense.

Perhaps you should have read about the laws first before shoving your foot in your mouth.

We might as well believe that a truck just appeared out of chaotic sheet metal buried deep in a rock. How you can believe this and still claim a belief in God is crazy is beyond me.

^^^^ INSULTS, INSULTS, INSULTS, & MORE INSULTS! THAT IS CHARACTERISTICS OF ATHEISTS! YOU GUYS ASK ALL THE QUESTIONS AND ANY REPLY IS NULL AND VOID! MEANWHILE YOU KEEP MAKING THE SAME VAIN POINTS OVER AND OVER AGAIN!

STOP CONFUSING ME WITH RELIGIONISTS ON THIS FORUM! HOW AND WHO TOLD YOU GUYS I DONT KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT OR THAT I CANT DEFEND MY BELIEFS? I'M NOT THE KIND OF CHRISTIAN YOU ARE USED TO!

thehomer & apocalypse are the only 2 individuals that have so far shown MATURITY on this THREAD that MAJORITY OF ATHEISTS HERE LACK! MAYBE I'LL JUST WAIT FOR THEM TO COME ONLINE!

harakiri & teslim! Thank you for the INSULTS! You believe you know it all already! Why dont you allow people who are willing to interact and learn from each other to argue on these TOPIC without resorting to your CHILDISH INSULTS? JUST WATCH FROM SIDELINES ABEG!

I DONT HAVE TIME TO INSULT WITH ANYONE, JUST WANT TO SET MATTERS ON RELIGION RIGHT!!!

THE REAL CONTRADICTION IS NOT BETWEEN SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE, BUT BETWEEN SCIENCE AND THE OPINION OF CHRISTIAN FUNDAMENTALISTS!

Earlier in the course of this ARGUMENT, someone asked a question about the AFTERLIFE. An ATHEIST RIGHTLY ANSWERED AND SAID LIFE ENDS AT DEATH!!! THAT'S CORRECT! THAT'S WHAT I BELIEVE! BUT WHY I HAVE A DIFFERENT BELIEF, YOU DONT WANT TO KNOW! OR MAYBE YOU WANT TO KNOW, BUT YOUR EGO & PRIDE WONT ALLOW YOU ASK QUESTIONS! SO YOU WILL RATHER INSULT!

I DONT KNOW ALL, NEITHER DOES ANYONE HERE KNOW ALL! BUT WHAT I KNOW, I'M READY TO SHARE!

IM A CHRISTIAN, BUT NOT A FANATIC OF CHRISTIANITY NEITHER AM I A FUNDAMENTALIST!

LET'S KEEP THE INSULTS ON CHECK!!! IF WE ARE TO GET ANYWHERE WITH THIS smiley
Re: Question For Atheists And Religious People by Nobody: 8:01am On Aug 23, 2011
To all those who believe that there is a God, stop wasting your time which you could use to do something more productive trying to convince these atheists, who have crossed out all possibilities (in their minds) that there is a supreme being.
I am actually a christian that believes that there is hell fire because my bible says that the wicked must not go unpunished. What better punishment is there to give a man who was given a long stretch on earth to repent but remained adamant, than to roast in eternal flames? grin
I hope that wont be your case.

   It is easy to prove all these scientific reasoning, laws, deductions etc with theories but I must admit, I really dont see how I can prove to you that there is a God using such means. Everything sexkillz has said is enough for a wise man to see reason (take note that I am not calling you foolish, we are all entitled to our opinions---sour as they may sound to another's ears!). if the world around you (as large as it is) cannot convince you, then I dont see what other thing can.

And to that man that said that the success rate of prayers answered(was that how you put it? cant really remember) is 0.01%, well I am not surprised even though the statement is rather appalling. If I were God, I would make it even less for anyone who does not believe in me. How can you not believe in me, trying to rule out my existence all the time and you expect me to answer your prayers?  shocked

Anyway, if believing in a God makes me a nitwit, stupid, moronic,  an eejit, a scallywag, ahahaha! I am definitely proud to be those. My belief in God remains firm as the roots of  an old Iroko.

[size=8pt]GOD[/size] bless you all.  cheesy grin
Re: Question For Atheists And Religious People by Nobody: 8:11am On Aug 23, 2011

Re: Question For Atheists And Religious People by 3kay945(m): 8:14am On Aug 23, 2011
@Harakiri and others, do you believe in reincarnation according to the Grail message. I find it easier to believe and using it as a reason why people are born into different families either rich or poor.
When you ask the religious people 'why some are born into affluent or poverty sticken families?' they answer saying 'that is how God wants it, he gives wealth to his chosen ones. Where is Justice in this?
Re: Question For Atheists And Religious People by Nobody: 8:20am On Aug 23, 2011
I DONT BELIEVE IN RE-INCARNATION & I DONT BELIEVE GOD GIVES WEALTH TO PEOPLE HE CHOOSES! THAT SMACKS OF PARTIALITY! GOD IS NOT PARTIAL!
Re: Question For Atheists And Religious People by Nobody: 8:22am On Aug 23, 2011
I do not believe in re-incarnation and never will. My folks told me that I re-incarnated from my grandmother because I was born around the time she died. They even named me after her and I refused to be called her name. She was poor for the most part and I was not born into a poor family(Thank GOD), she was very short and I am tall, she was uneducated and I am fully educated,  so i really dont believe in any of this re-incarnation ish as I clearly cannot see the tie in our DESTINIES. Why are people born into opulence and others are born impoverished? Do you believe in predestination?
Re: Question For Atheists And Religious People by senbonzakurakageyoshi(m): 8:23am On Aug 23, 2011
hmm, sexkillz, you're holding your own against several people. I'm quite impressed, most people would have buckled and fled the fort.

@ harakiri, et all, I am not very impressed.Both sides have raised good points, asked thought provoking questions but only one side appears to be slinging the insults. Sexkillz' style of argument may be unconventional but that gives no one basis to insult his persona. it seems like you're taking this discussion too personal. each of you has a reason for believing what you believe, and why you hold on tenaciously to those beliefs. That is why you shouldn't throw insults at people because they are standing by what they believe. Your atheism doesn't give you the moral edge to insult his christianity or vice versa. Thoughtful people respect the views of others even when they are conflicting as far as such views are not harmful to either side.

as to the discussion at hand, i'm a christian, and i don't see that changing any time soon (read ever). To me, this world and everything within and around it are way too ordered to have come about at random. In my life, I have seen reasons to believe in the existence of God. However, I am not like those conventional christians that hold on to the words of "pastor" tenaciously, like all of it is the gospel truth. I recognize that all our religious leaders are human beings and are fallible. so they can always use our beliefs to their advantage. Instead, i seek within myself and around me, the reasons to believe in God and I see them all the time.

where the problem lies is this; God controls the spiritual, humans control religion. It's the reason why religion appears to be fraught with inconsistencies and near impossibilities. Even in science, there are many errors we may hold on to as fact, only for them to be disproved at a later date. Religion is the product of man, no doubt, but that is not proof of God's non existence. It is just an indicator that each person has to seek out God himself without tinting the search with other human beings' insinuations. I see God in my life daily (not physically, but the products of what he does) and I don't think i'm going to stop believing his existence. This world is too ordered to have come about at random.

Re: Question For Atheists And Religious People by Nobody: 8:35am On Aug 23, 2011
I DONT believe in PREDESTINATION EITHER! undecided Its JUST ANOTHER ONE OF MANY LIES RELIGIONISTS TELL! THE TRUE GOD HAS REALLY BEEN DEFAMED!

IMAGINE A PASTOR TELLING A WOMAN THAT LOST HER BABY THAT GOD WANTS THE BABY AS AN ANGEL IN HEAVEN! shocked shocked shocked THAT IS PREPOSTEROUS!!! THE TRUE GOD IS[b] NOT[/b] CRUEL! WHY WOULD GOD WANT TO SEE A POOR WOMAN IN SORROW ALL BECAUSE HE WANTS AN ANGEL? IT DOESNT MAKE AN IOTA OF SENSE TO ME! THE TRUE GOD IS NOT SELFISH! IT'S A SHAME HOW SO CALLED MEN OF GOD PARADE THEMSELVES AND LIE AGAINST THE TRUE GOD! THEY ARE THE CAUSE OF MANKIND'S ALIENATION FROM THE TRUE GOD! PEOPLE HAVE LOST HOPE!

I'M HERE TO DEFEND THE TRUE GOD! SCIENCE IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE BIBLE, BUT BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY THAT MAJORITY OF SO CALLED CHRISTIANS ON THIS FORUM CANNOT DEFEND THE TRUE GOD!!! YOU CANT DEFEND WHO YOU NEVER KNEW!!!

OK! Lets Refresh!

sexkillz:

^^^Explain the human brain Development

What you simply need to realize is that we are able to think because we have this human brain. Amoeba for example cannot think.

We can refresh by you actually telling us about this God you're describing since it is quite different from the other concepts of God available.

We can refresh by starting with what you mean when you use the word "God" and "THE TRUTH".

I did not want to comment on this, but I am shocked shocked shocked at what I have been reading from this thread. The so called atheists, you have not given us enough reasons to believe that there is no God, and yet want evidence from us. Anyway, it is only a fool that will say there is no God. The evidence is there but you just don't want to see it. That's the path of ignorance.  sad
