I know one.
She is my good friend and confides a lot in me.
She's cute, educated and very jovial.
I am a Christian who respects people's views a lot.
Would you want to connect with her?

My kind of woman. Irreligious, educated and smart. Works well with me.

They make it a daily issue, that is why they have problems. If muslims and christians marry, what then is atheism?
I tend to avoid the topic unless the person brings it up and insists on hearing my views.
Surely they'll know someday, but it doesn't need to be at an early stage and shouldn't be brought up often.
I think those complaining are a few, because most atheists know they are seen as the devil, so they just keep it to themselves most of the time. Most atheists are not too vocal about it in real life, and certainly not in Nigeria.

You can actually blend, it is possible for you to date a religious girl provided you both respects each other's belief.

After all there are Muslims married to Christians in Nigeria. Same way Traditionalists are married to Christians too

God is greater than Man's imagination.

Can you prove that God does not exist?
Which is harder proving He exists or proven He does not?
Then i guess billions of Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists are just using a figment of their imagination.........
Can you now hear how you sound?

Well, my own concern about these religions is that these religions, the ideas of invisible God or gods were formed by people who didn't know better in the dark ages. People who had no idea what eclipses were. So many things that they couldn't explain at the time were all attributed to the invisible gods grin grin grin
Now, they successfully passed the same bullshiits to us through the ages. That's why the offsprings of people who sold religions to us in Africa are moving away from it massively. They realised that it is a scam created by some Neanderthals

You are an atheist, fine! But don’t complain about why people here in Nigeria aren’t sharing the same views as yours because of relationship.
How about relocating to the western countries?
Your kinds are in plentiful over there

Nah, you don’t need religion to be moral. Your common sense and conscience are enough moral compass. If you need a pastor, holy book or threat of hell fire to be right by man - then you need to reevaluate yourself.

Really? So many comments on this Nairaland that attempt to show philosophical Ideologies without any depth.

If there is no one setting moral standard, then, morality is objective. And if morality is objective, then it's supposed to be voluntary. Isn't that the argument for a lot of sexual-related issues we have around.

As for the conscience, how do humans have conscience when they're just higher animals? Who gave them the conscience?

This reminds me of how when i was in secondary school and i told my classmates that i'm a atheist. I lost a lot of friends that term

Lol. This reminds me of when I told my close friends the same thing, they started looking at me strangely afterwards. One guy I know has stabbed and injured a lot of people in fights was so scared of me it was funny.

So Africans weren't religious before the whites came?

Have you ever thought if it as this: religion became very popular in Africa because Africans are naturally superstitious?

That's by the way, people haven't given up on their traditional religious ideas. Those who use it to manipulate people still do. But religion is about going to the market to buy what you feel you need. Nobody should be intimidated for that.

You wish. I am an atheist and don't believe in diabolical stuff because it's all scam. I do not believe in the existence of any God. You can twist it any way that suits you.

You are still a minor that lacks self-awareness. Experience comes with age.


Until recently most people deny the existence of Aliens but not anymore because of thousands of documented evidences by US Military and Defense Department.

You dey mind am ni? He wants us to know he's an atheist because of the presupposition (which is false) that atheists are usually brillant.

The present Nigeria is a country where a lot of people (educated and illiterate) are trying to get rid of the idea of gods so that they can do what they like. Nigerian girls as at this time, play the front row in this.

Hypocrites!

You will indulge in every thing you oppose then beg for forgiveness on Sunday just to do it all again.

You are all just deceiving yourselves.

They actually relish the idea that their misdeeds can be cancelled by a supreme being. That is a kind of hope. Atheism doesn't give you that. Are they now not justified for sticking to religions?

There's human nature which religion doesn't take away but suppresses. Suppression doesn't mean absence. So, it's all good for the religionists.

I'm an atheist, and I found that I'm incapable of dating women who are particularly religious. I could go out on a date with a religious woman, and that's usually solely by merit of me pretending the whole time as though I'm truly in for it.

Since long term relationship with these women would have necessitated that i make pretence a hobby, logic sets in and we inevitably part ways.

In a highly religious country like ours, it's quite hard to find a woman who's an atheist as me, let alone a decent one.



If you are a nice and enlightened fella, this should not be an issue.
Africans are extremist. Be whatever but keep a clean heart.

Some might not be very religious, but their thought patterns are still warped in religion.

The very religious ones can even be a challenge to Christian guys

One thing that amazes me from time to time is that they can partake freely in fornication and adultery, while holding the religion very tight
Well women naturally are concrete hypocrite... They contrast what they practice

Imagine acclaimed Atheists praying to an unknown God when the bus they are traveling with somersaults.

There are no Atheists in Nigeria. Humanist - Yes but the denial of the existence of a supreme being is out of hatred for religious people.

An Atheist and you believe in the intervention of your ancestors in your difficult situations. Continue the lies.

Will I say Nigerian atheist or atheist in general are a funny lot. How do you desire to have a 'decent' atheist as a girl friend?
Like who are you to require a standard for her when nothing rules her?
Or do you not know God gave man commandments on how to live life and be 'decent' and once God is removed man is free to make up his own rules as he lives and nothing becomes out of place for him. So just go ahead a marry any atheist you come across, she can decide to have 10 husband's and it's not out of place, she can decide to sleep with animals and it's still not out of place for her. She is ruled by nothing just as you claim you are too and hence free to do as she wills.
Bro, I believe in a higher power, call Him/It/She 'God' or whatever name. I'm not an atheist, but you see the things you wrote up there? Anybody can indulge in them- religious or not. You can't say all evils on earth are committed by atheists. As a matter of fact, most wrong doers, when caught always attribute their wrong doings to "the work of the devil", a pointer to the fact that they actually believe in a 'god'. There are just two kinds of humans on earth bro - the good and the bad. As a matter of fact, when ever there's a God topic on Nairaland, I find out that most of the arrogant comments I read here ALWAYS come from religious folks, particularly from so called 'Christians'. Most atheists on the other hand are always more logical, tolerable and speak with facts rather than the arrogance you guys constantly display here.

There is something you're not telling us baba.
It may be that you're having very bad Manners, come to think of it, all the girls you meet haba. Even people that practice human sacrifice are having theirs.
I'm just imagining how you'll start an argument arrogantly and want a lady to be submissive to you, the fact is that they see you as someone that is 9/10.
The fact is that Man by default is aware of the Supernatural.
Spirits, devils, marine powers etc. Your denial won't stop their esistance.
As the Bible says, 'only a fool say that there is no God'.

Just find someone that have the same believe as you. (The there is no God type).
