TenQ: It looks like you’ve NEVER read on what theism and atheism is. Your logic is the one that collapsed in front of you, I never mentioned “buhari, trump” talkless of “president”. You’ve started believing abi instead of seeing fact, believer? God is a title. Title for what? . you can put “god the problem” it doesn’t matter. Indoctrinated Theists like you are ignorant of what they worship. God is an English word, where does it come from? What language was tanakh and New Testament written in. Your ignorance is glaring, no wonder you are worshipping a middle east god. Bwahahahah, now we have the standard definition of atheism. And theism will be the opposite of this right? Theism is not a BELIEF in Yahweh or Allah or Vishnu BUT a BELIEF in the existence of any DEITY/God! 1 Like |

GodsOwnMan:I wonder the relevance of your response to God is simply a TITLE used by Christians to depict the SOURCE and ORIGIN of Everything! God is a TITLE in Hebrew ELOHIM and in Greek Theo's! For we Christians and Jews, the specific name or Identity of God is Yahweh! |

Re: Do You Fake Being A Christian As An Atheist In Nigeria? by TenQ: 2:42pm On Aug 14, 2022 |
Maynman:Anyone can use the Title God just as President, Chairman, Referee, Pope. No way, Christians didn't create the title men did! Theos, Elohim, God, OLORUN, Allah is the same TITLE. Sorry, you didn't know that |

GodsOwnMan: Christians means Christ-like! As you yourself have seen and know Christians go to church but not all church goers are Christians. And church goers have proven beyond all reasonable doubt that they are not Christ-like, therefore, they are not Christians. They are even atheists only that they have not yet accepted that Truth to themselves. |

TenQ: The term “god” “president” didn’t just fall from heaven like “manna” We have etymology, where these words come from and the meaning behind it. Look up on the origin. Theos means gods in greek Elohim means gods hebrew English God comes from greek Theos(Theology, atheism theism), another also comes from germanic origin but that means “to pour”. Sorry you didn’t know. Olorun means “sky god”. Orisha is God in yoruba Allah is a Aramaic word that also means elohim, and means gods. Your religion thrives on ignorance |

I don't fake it. I only tolerate religious folks and respect them however I am full blown Atheist. All religions don't make sense to me |

TenQ: It’s you that didn’t get the context. Relax A miracle is generally defined, according to the etymology of the word—it comes from the Greek thaumasion and the Latin miraculum—as that which causes wonder and astonishment, being extraordinary in itself and amazing or inexplicable by normal standards. We have so many magicians(that can cause wonder and astonishment) that can do that. Even in Christianity you can see the mockery of “miracles” |

CandyOps:You got every other thing right until you mentioned Peter Obi. Peter Obi is a wrong fit for this statement as an individual who has come to the epiphany that reason/logic supersedes every other thing. You should have realized by now that Peter Obi nor Tinubu nor Atiku is the solution to the problem of Nigeria. Yes we need an absolute overhaul but ask yourself... is electioneering the key to the overhaul. No it isn't!!! Peter Obi to me is not different from every other Nigerian politician.. act the saint and miserly only to get power and the leopard starts showing its skin. Even if you assume PO is the solution.. you should realize by now that there are some forces within the country (not spiritual) bigger than the presidency and till this time in the democratic era only one man (OBJ) has been able to overcome those forces. But despite overcoming those forces he still went ahead to misuse the power for his own purposes and gains. If you can think deep you will realize that what Nigeria needs now is not Peter Obi, it's not another election year. What Nigeria needs is restructuring which includes decentralization of power, change of constitution and a couple of other things. As a person who claim to have embraced the reality and truth which is REASON... you should know restructuring first then electioneering later even if it takes decades to complete the restructuring process then till then any forms of election should be placed on hold. Until we come to this reality we will keep going round in circles.. complaining of the same things every four year tenure. By the way I'm a deist... as for faking what you don't believe in... To me it's more like you are trying to get acceptance and impress/please people. As a deist every where I go people know what the Bleep I believe in... I don't talk about my belief nor do I engage in religious argument cos i don't argue with ignoramus fellows. But from my indifference to religious issues.. people always have a clue that I don't give a F about religion.. and they don't even come near me to preach about religion cos they know if they do they are in for a rejection. Stick to your belief and let others stick to theirs.. you don't need to make anyone believe in what you do believe in. It's a waste of energy that can transferred elsewhere. If you are like me who doesn't try to fit in and doesn't give a Bleep.. you wouldn't even have a single thought about how the society perceives your belief. 1 Like |

Maynman:I wish you are humble enough to fill yourself with knowledge before splashing about the waters of reason The Satanist groups that appeared after the 1960s are widely diverse, but two major trends are theistic Satanism and atheistic Satanism. (1) Theistic Satanists venerate Satan as a supernatural deity, viewing him not as omnipotent but rather as a patriarch. In contrast, atheistic Satanists regard Satan as a symbol of certain human traits.(2) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satanism It seems you just read about the definition of Atheism! SMH!! |

How Can We Know God Is Really There? We can see God in creation. The irreducible complexity of all creation points to intelligent design. The beauty and practicality of all creation shows God cares for those he creates and appreciates our beauty. On a logical standpoint, we have to consider how the universe came into existence in the first place. Because of the second law of thermodynamics, the universe is finite. That means something infinite had to create it. And based on the mathematical patterns and complexity we see in creation, it had to be something all-powerful, personal, and eternal. All of creation points to a Creator (Psalm 19:1-4) So we can ask where did God come from, or who created God? The answer is that God has always been there, and no one created him. But he did create us. We can see his fingerprints on everything. Creation proves God’s infinite nature, his compassionate spirit, and his power and knowledge. Better than any other god presented by any other religion, our Father wants a personal relationship with his creation. |

TenQ: I wish you are humble enough to know you are ignorant, and lack knowledge of what you are saying. Satanist groups one called theistic satanism, and another atheistic satanis. Are you also not a THEIST? See this hypocrite oo. Is theist and theistic satanist the same thing? See what religion is doing to you. It seems you don’t know what THEISM IS, which you are! |

GodsOwnMan: Wrong! That is what Liars (and people who honestly did not know) Teach! Faith is Good Sound Reason based on Good Sound Knowing aka (Knowledge). *There is a thread here which says "Knowing is The Key"! And that is right. Secondly, I used my very life and death to prove Him and in the end I have been smiling ever since, as He Promised and Guarantees! |
