He doesn't mind presenting absurdity as rationality. The iPhone is God, too according to him, because it happens to be a very influential thing. If you follow his logic, or lack thereof, you will soon realize that there is no limit to what can be God. Even your favorite pillow or pair of shoes can be God.

Perhaps, you are best referred to as a Non-theist.

You're not going to achieve anything by talking to Folly. He's on my troll list and will be on yours too. Just give it some time. He hasn't yet unleashed the full power of his silliness yet.

This Folly person once told me that GEJ, the Nigerian president is God, according to the dictionary. He then proceeded to tell me that GEJ possesses another God called Ori Apesin, bringing the total number of Gods inside GEJ to 2. His wife also possesses this Ori thing, and she is a God too, according to the dictionary, so at any given point, there are no less than FOUR Gods locked behind the doors of the presidential chambers.

The guy is more of an occupational hazard.

A pursuit or interest followed with great devotion is a religion.

Atheism is not followed with "great devotion", its just a lack of belief. Not swimming can also be said to be followed with great devotion.

Knowledge is facts, information, and skills acquired by a person through experience or education; the theoretical or practical understanding of a subject. Awareness or familiarity gained by experience of a fact or situation.
That is gotten by simply googling "meaning of knowldge". Perhaps you can do the same before you show your ignorance about definitions.

Your experience cannot be a belief anymore, because you now know.

If you dont believe pigs can fly, and dont feel like proving it, why are you asking me for proof that gods dont exist?

Ok, all those things like love etc that you are calling god are abstracts, like god, they are not real. So beliefs do not still matter, they are not just real. Ok?

You are also an atheist but you don't want to acknowledge this fact. If you really think about it, you share the same view with Frostbel unbeknown to you. If you are a Christian and it turns out that Allah is the real God, guess what? That makes you an atheist because you don't believe in God. If Budha is the real God and you are a Muslim or a Christian you are an atheist because you don't believe in God.

We can extend this to many permutations and you will see that you do the same thing Frostbel did which is to dismiss your Christian doctrine. You do the same thing every day. If you understand why you dismiss Sango and Ogun worshippers, you would understand why Frostbel dismissed your belief.

Frostbel just believe in one less God than you do but methinks you are both atheists using your own logic.

So, there are people who still don't know me on this forum?

I am an atheist already, I became one years ago. cheesy

So tell me sir, if atheism is define as disbelieve in the existence of god, then would you tell us that gods - logicboy, yourself, natural entities, planetary bodies, money and consciousness does not exist?

I have already defined the god atheists disbelieve. Whatever definition of god you have apart from this is your own head ache.

Na my auto completion write pattern, I met to write plaetton. Sorry.

Well to plaetton, energy is God the creator. And to you, it is eternal either as matter or whatever; but it is not intelligent. I learnt everything including we are made up of energy and we are sapiens. . . .so how come? That for that.

If energy in matter and vice versa can be alpha and omega- read rev chapter 1, does that not make it God?

Do you disbelieve in God(energy)?

Before you answer, decipher on this http://freethoughtnation.com/defining-the-concept-of-god-as-energy/ .

Now do answer pls, do you disbelieve in God (energy)?
Yes. Energy is energy, god is god. If you want to worship energy as god, then I will still disbelieve in your god because energy is never to be worshiped. You can as well start worshiping a tree and expect me to share your (silly) beliefs.

These are all beliefs.

There is no god.

red herring!!!!!!!

My oxford dictionary says football is a religion.

I cants see how atheism isnt.

Read your dictionary again. I am sure it didnt say "football is a religion" as you said it, but that it can be a religion depending on the fan.

Atheism is a lack, football is an involvement. So both follows different path, you cannot therefore compare both.

If not believing that pigs can fly is not a religion, not believing that a god exist is not either.

If you die without believing in Jesus and you find out that Jesus is real. All your good works is a waste and you would go straight to Hell.
It is only by believing in Jesus that you can participate in his glory.

This gospel of yours, that treats a good man to hell, and an evil villain to heaven - all because of faith - is the biggest lie of all time in human history.

It betrays logic, it betrays justice, it betrays morality, it betrays goodness, it betrays conscience, it betrays simple common sense.

It can never be real.

If there is a creator of the universe, he sure knows better than to judge by faith.

What if God exists?
What if God does not exist?

I think those two questions are relevant

Our beliefs cannot change whether God exists or does not
but it can affect how we approach our world and those around us

Perhaps, but then, your whole life would have been based on mere assumptions. It would have been a total waste.

If I die to find out there is a god, then my work shall be used in my judgement. I will be judged fairly because I did not subscribe to any god while on earth, but open to the possibility of any god.

If you die to find out Yahweh is not the true god, its a straight to hell for you. Because you already lost the bet.

Your beliefs make you a gambler.

If I want to cross the sea, I'd take a boat and not try walking
if I am in plane that is going to crash
and there is no scientific method available to stop the crash
what worse harm would it do me to believe that it can be averted by the mighty harm of God?

You are still not getting it. There could be no harm done, but belief is only a belief.
Its a lie, a delusion, an abstract. Its a temporary feel-good drug that you are probably addicted to.

Believing that a god can avert the crash does not mean it will happen. Why not spend your last minute thinking about the love of your life than wasting it on a delusion called faith?

What you've said is true alright
i.e that proof can not rest on mere belief

Although It was not me you were responding to, but considering that I can be reluctantly bunched into the 'superstitious' crew ...reluctant because even me dey tire for my co travellers
while you thankfully belong to the logical camp but on the other side
let me intervene a little to explain what you call our self delusion for the incredulous.


we (and I guess other religions) believe that the start of everything was initiated by a being
Lets call that initiation point, point O

We believe that this being created a logical process that drives from 0 through 10 all the way to infinity or the end.
We believe that that this being is able to and does intervene in points in the system journey after point 0.

Now, if we've believed the beings intervention in point 0, we are not swayed when you guys tell us that he did not or is not able to intervene in other points after point 0. We do have different narratives/views of how the being is able to intervene in the journey through time.

Since we believe he can intervene, we find it credible to believe stories we were told of his intervention even if we did not witness it. We call this miracles, signs and wonders.

Now, your goal on the other side should not be to concentrate on points after point 0 except you want to credibly show us how we are being deceived by men that say that they are able to cause the being to intervene. If you do show us this, it weakens our trust on these men, but we still seek the being.

What you should concentrate your efforts on is to prove to us that point 0 never occurred with the beings input in the first place. If the being did not do it, then he is powerless in the process thereafter.
For now, all we have from you guys is the big bang theory.
This just like the belief in God does not address the question "what was before this?"

We on our side can even better argue that God being spiritually infinite, was always.
The same cannot be said of matter which produced the big bang

So we do have a logic to our madness for now
So strike the root and only then will our edifice crumble



Do you know how many times you mentioned "believe"? I could not even count.

@Bold - Since its all belief, you can argue anything...

But be advised that belief is not reality. You are therefore only wasting your time.
