The United States Constitution literally codified a secular government, which completely debunks you here.



State-mandated anti-theism in Marxist systems is an instrument of political subjugation. It has absolutely nothing to do with religion. Please get your facts straight. None of those regimes you mention codify non-belief because they love rationalist philosophy. They just enforce it to demolish competing centers of authority and force total submission to the supreme leader. They systematically eliminate independent institutions to eliminate dissent and churches simply happen to be organized rivals for popular loyalty.

It's always been all about power. Faith and belief is completely irrelevant. So treating political tyranny as the canonical doctrine of everyday secularism is a hilariously desperate category error.



Tell that to millions fighting for bodily autonomy against evangelical lobbies in the West. Religious fundamentalists routinely weaponize legal loopholes to ban books, restrict healthcare, and legislate scripture into public law daily. Having theoretical individual freedom doesn't mean pious loudmouths aren't aggressively invading public life.



This lazy semantic trickery is getting remarkably pathetic, my guy. Calling any organized set of principles a "religion" is a cheap equivocation tactic meant to mask the total lack of empirical evidence for your faith. There is a vast, unbridgeable chasm between dogmatic submission to unproven supernatural myths and the energetic defense of rational, evidence-based inquiry.

By your completely broken logic, a passionate belief in the scientific method, human rights, or environmentalism makes someone an ordained priest. Please stop stretching basic semantics before the English language utterly loses all meaning.



Anyone living in 2026 with a functioning brain can spot your desperate equivocation tactics from a mile away
The guy has been on the atheism is religion track for a while now. I think it assuages his feelings of the insufficiency of his own religion because of the devastating challenge reason brings. It's always laugh worthy.

If scientists who depends on scientific evidences say they believe in the existence of God i believe the rest is your cup of coffee!😂
They do not say they believe in god because they have scientific evidence of a god. If you say they do then produce just ONE scientist saying they have scientific evidence for a god.

Their belief in God is enough for me at least they know far better than you who has never invented anything other than relying on their works to condemn their faith.

Is that not hilarious?😂

YES! Because Allah means God.

It's understanding His ways they don't know not evidence of His existence!🙂

This is part of the issues Atheist unknowingly grapple with. You are unable to come to terms that GOD is far beyond religious interpretations. Your issue is not GOD but the interpretation of GOD according to the Abrahamic faiths. To be honest, they have done quite a good job pushing GOD knowledge into the world, but there comes a time where people will no longer be satisfied with the state of GOD awareness they promote and will yearn for something more.

Scratch what I said earlier (this was not intended to be a thread for some hardcore esoteric stuff). You do not need to die to experience heaven! You can witness and experience GOD while you are still alive here in this world.

NB: You need to disabuse your mind from religious constructs wink
So how do we experience heaven and you experiencing it?
So since you say god is beyond human interpretations,are you an alien since you can interprete him? And if you cant interprete him,then why make claims that we humans cannot interpret him
Re: Why Are Atheists More Obsessed With Religion Than So-called Religious People? by jaephoenix(m): 2:39pm On Jul 26
HeatSeeker:
There is no universal standard or unit of measurement for GOD'S truth. Human beings differ in their levels of acceptance to this truth, hence, the outcome is a myriad of religious groups dancing around the same themes and giving different expressions and interpretations to what was revealed for the good of man. We will all experience GOD in different ways. Everybody cannot be boxed into a singular line of thinking.
So since we all experience god in different ways,are you saying all those denoms are legit and they'll all make heaven?

This is a very invalid question (off side) for 2 reasons

1) Told you before that it is an invalid questions because you are Presuming that He has to be create

2) Invalid question because it is the fallacy of shifting/Changing the Post.
The topic is proof of God to us and not proof of how God came to exist.

So, this is an invalid question like a football player using his hand to kick the ball is a foul
You're also assuming the universe has to be created,instead of just existing

1. That is only true in a place like Nigeria where religion is air for the vast majority. That doesn't apply to athiests in other climes where religion rarely features in public life for most folks. 😒😒

2. Unfortunately, there is also atheism, the religion, which is what is at play here. Literally every ideology out there can be turned into a religion by those who allow themselves to become brainwashed by it. Atheism, for a great number of athiests, is a religion that their entire universe is centered around, and like every other religion, one they feel pushed to proselytize, even against the very logic and truth they pretend to stand for. So, when a so-called atheist uses belief in atheism as a reason to attack other religions, he does so mainly from a religious standpoint, no different than when people from other religions do the same. 😒😒
So u expect atheists to keep quiet while religious people attack us,make rules based off their religion and force us to obey them?
U well so? lipsrsealed undecided

1. All nations are founded on one religious idea or the other. There is no escaping that fact. You go to even the communist/socialist/marxist nations, and you will find atheism codified in the system. However, in the West, the idea of freedom of religion at the individual level allows most people to exist without having to have the religion of others shoved in their faces every day. This is the #1 of the other individual I had responded to.😒

2. I explained there how any comprehensive ideology/belief can take up a religious stronghold over those who allow themselves to be brainwashed by it. Anyone living in 2026 would know and understand this at this point. 😒
Not all nations are founded on religion. Starting your argument with falsehood doesnt make for good reading. Please how do you mean 'atheism is codified'?
In the Westerm country like US,religion forces some laws. Example teaching Bible in schools,banning abortions etc

The way you openly lie and twist Truths, you truly are Satan's best child

The quotes clearly say "i do not deny the existence of God," which means that charles Darwin perceives God and upholds Him. Same for Thomas Edison who says that God is The Best Engineer, which means that he perceived God too. Same for the last guy who said shallow knowledge of science will make you an atheist whereas a deep knowledge of science will make you know that there is God and you shall believe In Him.

Yet, here you are lyeing by twisting it, . Smh

I know. But you said the universe was created by your god and everything must have a creator. So since you said your god cannot be created,why must the universe be created? Why cant it just exist like your god?

You are the ones trying to twist things. How is "i do not deny the existence of God," the same as I saw the invisible being in the science I was doing.

Huh? 😒😒

Much of what you know as Western nations is fundamentally shaped by a combination of Christian morality, Greco-Roman philosophy, Roman law, and architecture. In the US, for example, what you refer to as inalienable rights are derived from ideas linked to a God, and that God happens to be the one linked to the Christian Religion. So, when people scream, "Rights this and rights that," in the United States, they refer to rights that are backed by rights that come from the religion of Christianity, and not out of thin air!🤔🤔

Just so we are clear, a nation that codifies secularism... freedom of religion... IS NOT a nation without a religious foundation. Let's not conflate two totally different ideas here. 🤔
