That we are having this discussion proves god doesn't exist. No one questions the existence of the sun because it is evident. We can see it. That an almighty being has decided to play hide and seek since the beginning of time, or at least 2,000 years by Christian timing, shows that it only exists in the imagination of the believers of such a concept.

That you believe it doesn't make it real.

Common sense determines good or bad. Humans discovered this after centuries of co-existing and wrote this in books and made them as laws. Some chose to say "god did it". Either way, the knowledge of good or bad exists across all animals.

[size=18pt]Isnt it funny that the things we see are made by the ones we dont see ? The sun u believe exists was made by something you dont see.

How else do you want GOD to appear to you besides the things he created ? Do you want GOD to appear to you as a stone so that you will say he is a stone that he created?

What about the wind? Does it exist? Do you see it ?

Fúck you... for making me have to do this.. Fúck you.

the problem with talking with someone who approves of science in a way and a Militant Believer is that they probably don't approve of Evolution in its logical form..

Steve Jobs used example of living being created through evolution, that have evolved over millions of years..

but whatever man

[size=18pt]By Evolution you mean the BIG-BANG THEORY ? . So who or what caused the bang or explosion that brought everything we see into existence ?

If everything was made once by the bang ? How come every other thing after that now goes through a process ? Why are we not banging things into existence ? Why do we now go and plant what we eat and wait for it to grow ? Why do we go though a process to reproduce ?

IF you are looking for the Bang, its the word of GOD that said let there be .

IF things are banged into existence, there there is no need to futher study how they operate. The reason there is the word of GOD is to provide a manual for life that is written by him. I believe when you develop a program there is a documentation to guide the user ? So is the word of GOD.

The Big Bang , Banged things into existence without documentation .

It is enough that bad things happen, but for you rejoicing and thanking god
over your fellow human misery is beyond me.
Even I do feel pity for animals that get knocked down on the highway
let alone humans.

hahn:
Op, the very fact that bad things happen everyday while god sits back and does nothing is only proof of his incompetence. Quite on the contrary, the tragic events, sad stories and other negative things that happen only prove that god doesn't exist

vladimiros:
mate I did not find God in object oriented..,. you explained it the way most people do

see Steve Jobs explanation



Its logical, and easily explanable any way

[size=18pt]Well steve still used things created by GOD for his illustration.That tells you that GOD was there before whatever we choose to believe.

Thats for programming . Those in the fashion industry will also believe in their fashion and not the GOD that created fashion. Do you know that the first dress that was ever made was made by GOD in the garden of eden to cover adam and eve's unclothedness ?

Dont joke with GOD he is bigger that what you can ever think or imagine. When a thought comes to your mind to make something new, you call it an "I-DEA" . You know why its called an I-dea? Its GOD telling you he was there before you thought of it

Sometimes people choose to run away from GOD because he is too big to comprehend in our tiny human brains We dont understand how he can be everywhere at the same time. How he knows everything and keeps quiet. We want him to answer us and tell us why things happen the way they do. But hey' he did not consult you during creation so he is not answerable to you.

No wonder JESUS said unless you become like a little child, you cant enter the kingdom of GOD. One of the characteristics of little children is that they believe. A father who has 30 naira in his account will tell his 5yrs old child that he will buy him a real aeroplane which cost billions. The small child will just believe.

But if your father tells you he will buy you an aeroplane you will doubt and first ask how much he has in his account. GOD is bigger that whatever we think or imagine. So humble yourself and believe.

vladimiros:
congrats man..

next time, you PrintIn your next line of Code.

pray to God..

infact in your Morning Devotional, Pray to God that your framework or IDP is not wrecked by satan

I am glad you know about Object Oriented tho, means there is hope for you,

but your knowledge of destiny and fate is still flawed

[size=18pt]I am glad you have found GOD staring at you in your object oriented programming that you worship It is now clear to you that GOD created the object oriented programming abi . Why worship the creature rather than the creator ?? Why do you believe so much in creation but not the creator ?


Your looking for evidence that GOD exists, i am glad you have seen him in your object oriented programming

Whatever profession you choose in life, You will find GOD there. Thats why we call it a "NEW DISCOVERY" in every field . Everything we will ever create as humans was there from creation we just discover

I guess you just discovered object oriented programming
[/size]

vladimiros:
mate does not hide the fact that you clearly said you are living your life for a reward which has been marketted to you as everlasting life..

well I am living my life to be a badass Software Engineer, hope that not too bad for you.

also want to have the best Marijuana garden in the world, most potent stuff

[size=18pt]It is funny we expect a team to win at the end of a football match and be rewarded for what they did in between the start and end whistle.

We believe to be paid for the labour we put in from the start of the month and the end of the month in our job.

We believe we will be rewarded for what we wrote between the time our exam starts and ends in school.

But we dont believe we will be rewarded for the time we spent from the start to the end of our life

vladimiros:
there was no point answering since you don't even understand the physic behind things..

Object Oriented Programming is probably powered by God in your head..

[size=18pt]Object oriented programming you said


Its funny how children that are born yesterday wake up and want to challenge the GOD of creation based on the things he created. You can find GOD in every aspect of life. Dont even go there. GOD is the first programmer . We are just displaying part of the creative ability deposited in use because we were made after his likeness.

Life is a mystery to us, but it is GODs own program written by his words. You talk about object oriented programming.

You defined the classes in creation ?

Who defined solid and liquid classes ? Who defined the tree class, fruit class and all other classes? What about the sub-classes of animals ??

What about the variables of life ? What about the constants of life ? Dont you see Programming language of life all through the bible ?

Dont you see the conditional statements in the word of GOD? Why do you think we should read the bible to understand the code that runs in life ?

Was there anything like programming when God wrote this codes ?

Isa_1:19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:

if(ye be willing and obedient){ye shall eat the good of the land}

Gen_8:22 While the earth remaineth, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

while(the earth remaineth){seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. }

Is that not a while loop and a conditional statement above mr programmer ??


?

vladimiros:
so you are living your life just to get a reward in the end,

Goodness..

vladimiros:
this is why education has failed in Nigeria..

this guy obviously had a quack teacher and relied on the Bible for Logic and Science

Ranchhoddas:
You should not encourage the OP simply because you are a christian.There is absolutely nothing great about this thread.It makes no sense.

vladimiros:
the fact you think God controls the weather is proof you have zero idea on astronomy or the earth's movement

[size=18pt]

Lol i guess your astronomy also told you whats keeps the skies separated from the ground, or what keeps the water separated from land or what happens the the seed that goes into the ground and reproduces or how a single sperm become a human being in 9 months.

Are you in control of how much traffic will be on the road from point a to point be or what happens the next second? What if the building your typing from collapses now on you, are you still in control ? Are you also in control of what happens between the time u sleep and wake up in the morning ? Since your in control, you should be able to predict precisely how long you will live on this earth. Since you have it all worked out.

How come as a master you did not decide to be born into the family of bill gates ? or choose which country your born into ?Since have always been in control Or someone else was in control till you were born and handed the steering over to u completely?


[/size]

vladimiros:
Secondly I am an athiest because I believe I am in total control of my life..

That my destiny is in my hands and I am the commander of my life.

My life has been much better ever since

vladimiros:
lol what religion practise honestly would make naija better

yet countries that are not religious are not only better than us but alot more moral..;

neocortex:
You are as dangerous as Boko haram, so each time you log in to Nairaland,
all you wish for is to find news of calamity befalling others so that you can
thank god.
How inhuman can you be ?
Well, I don't totally blame you, I blame those who taught you that the sky
god must always be praised even for that disasters that befall your neigbours.
SMH.

finofaya:
So if I feel that a belief in God might have a negative effect on your decision making the proper thing would be to tell you about it?

Chizzled06:
But time is an illusion. So "the end of time" cannot exist.

dalaman:
Can you point out to a post from any atheist here on nairaland that has ever claimed he is an atheist because some events took place in his/her life that got him/her frustrated or any atheist that has ever claimed that they are atheist because they don't like the idea of being accountable? Can you post any quote from any atheist that made such a claim or are you lying as usual? When will you guys stop telling lies for Jesus?

Chizzled06:
So your point is, God is an illusion?

finofaya:
Why don't you just believe in God in the privacy of your heart? Must you tell people about it? If you're so sure of your belief in God why do you keep discussing it?

[size=18pt]Still boils down to time Sometimes a friend of yours might oversleep and might be getting late for a function. You have to wake them up right? Because if they show up late there are consequences . Imagine if u missed an exam because you over slept and your roommate who was going for the same exam did not wake you up and left. You ended up failing and had an extra year. How would you feel ? [/size]

vladimiros:
[size=15pt]OP

grow up

there are more important issues in Nigeria yet everyone turns into a fire brigade when the topic is religion

this is why we are backward, Religion is more Important than technocratic growth[/size]

menesheh:
Derailing a thread

[size=18pt]I hope you know u will be reward for what u did from the start time of this thread till the end, when your time ends. Be wise . .[/size]

Chizzled06:
But time is an illusion. Does that mean God is an illusion too?

johnydon22:
[b]

Christians got to be the most self centered, selfish people i have ever come across.

they give their God thanks for other people's tragedy because it didn't befall them.

Therefore they are more deserving of less tragedies than the people these tragedies befall.

You saw someone who just had a terrible accident and you are thanking God that you weren't the one.

For what exactly?

Because the person who had the accident deserves it more than you?

Or maybe they are not worth saving by God?

Thanking God for giving them food but not the children dying in IDP camps of hunger and malnutrition.

By thanking God for your food or for your well being shows you think God determines who eats and who don't . . . therefore they should always remember to thank God for not giving food to others.

A very selfish and disturbing mindset that erodes compassion in people in the face of the tragedies of others.

One told me the other time that he got convinced that there is a God when armed robbers shot at him and his friend but his friend got killed instead therefore God saved him.

Can you imagine such absurd idiocy.

When people bank on the tragedies of others to give thanks to their deities for their well being reveals beings devoid of compassion.

This is what happen when people give credit for world events to abstract concepts that lives inside their minds. [/b]

raayah:
I should thank God for other people's tragedy's[/b]?? What If it were my own child that was killed, Should I still be happy because I am alive

What Kind of weed does your pastor give you guy's on Sunday to smoke. This has to be one of the most ridiculous posts I have read on nairaland.

[size=18pt]You should thank GOD you are alive. That does not mean u dont sympathize . You might as well kill yourself if you dont want to thank GOD. [/size]
