Your last 2 sentences: Now that is truly funny.




In a piteous way.




It is in your best interests to refrain from such utterances. You sound very abusive towards someone you don't know or believe in. Very impolite. Very daring. Very dangerous. But surely you know have heard all this before.
All those vituperative attacks against a non existent entity huh Its more about rage and rancor against God - that explains why they devote their time ,day and night , spewing hateful thoughts against him . They need to let God know they hate him grin

Lol.


You know, I think they believe in God more than theists do. They are so concerned with disproving him that they are so familiar with what they say about him.

No penny for their troubles.


See you later. Been a pleasure watching them wallow in what they don't understand. Their "boss" atheists are away, perhaps searching their files for a counter thread and cursing the "slackbrainedness"of their minions who obviously can't keep up.

Trying to claim western achievements for xtianity which through history have actually been detrimental to its progress.
xtians living outside the west which paradoxically just happens to be the least xtian-like are more than 75% of the global xtian population and yet not a single noble prize can be found among them.

Lol... If I, a mere human can have rage against the almighty creator... That creator must be undeserving to be called a creator...


What u don't know is that, the more you assume I an ordinary human, is capable of having hatred or anger towards my creator just the way I can have it towards my fellow human, the more you ridicule ur own God and demote him to humanhood

For your information, I also liked your post...

Oh! Great, a challenge! We'll be waiting. But come o! There is a long list of gods worshipped throughout the world, why speak against only Yahweh/Jehovah when there are other gods you can speak against. If you have nothing against Yahweh/Jehovah, then disprove other gods. Why not challenge a Hindu and prove to him that Brahma is a hoax? Here is a list of gods I know, see if you can disprove any of them:

We have Zeus, Hermes, Brahma, Sheeva, Vishnu, Kali, Saraswati, Enki, Enlil, Ishtar, Baal, Marduk, Shamash, Inanna, Ganesa, Reshpu, Ra, Horus, Amon, Heqt, Hecate, Amphitryton, Triton, Poseidon, Cernunnos, Nkulunkulu, Aesir, Aegir, Yemanja, Sango, Obatala, Frega, Odin, Thor, Vanir, Hephaestus (Vulcan), Hera, Thoth, Anubis, Anukis, Sakmet, Sokka, Isis, Osiris, Mithras, Ahura Mazda, Ahriman, Tweedupon, Egbesu, Loki, Ijala, Amadioha, Bacchus, Aphrodite, Ninurgi, Sin, Ashima, Allat, Uzzat, Manat, Seth, Nut, Mut, Hades, Bel, Nebo, Ares, Eris, Cronus, Gaea, Uranus, Apis, Sirius, Yam ........................... And the list goes on. Oh! And lest I forget, Domino Reverad, the god of OtemWonyahweh, otemdomino, otem4eartum, otemanuduno and geoworldedu........ Pick one to disprove and take a break from trying to disprove the indisputable Yahweh/Jehovah.

I've said it before and I'll say it again just for the sake of it. It's just unfortunate that nobody seems to want to learn or the people here just enjoy arguing for argument sake when they are bored and have nothing to do. Being religious (not just Christian) doesn't make anyone good by default ; neither does being irreligious (or specifically, atheist/agnostic) make anyone a better person. People do good because either they have good intentions or they have selfish intentions that their acts of goodness would help them achieve. Throughout history, there have been good and bad theists as there have been good and bad atheists. Picking one side doesn't give anyone automatic goodness points.

Let me illustrate something (for the record, I'm a Christian - but an objective one) with a true encounter. One day, at work, I was hungry and stepped out of the office to buy biscuits from a shop close-by. When I got there, I met the owner of the shop reading the Bible with a daily devotional. He was so engrossed in his study of the word that he did not even notice my presence. Well, I wasn't about to interrupt his quiet time so I turned to leave. It was at this point that he noticed me and asked what I wanted to buy. When I told him I wanted to buy biscuits, he brought out this big plastic container in which he keeps biscuits for sale. I saw a particular brand I liked, picked six of it, paid and left. On getting back to the office, I opened one of the biscuits, took a piece and had a bite. Immediately I knew there was something wrong with it. I thought maybe it was just that piece. I took another piece and took a bite. It also tasted funny. Felt maybe it was just that pack. I opened another one and took a piece. It tasted as funny as the previous one. It was then that it occured to me to check the expiry date of the biscuits. To my horror, every single one of them had expired by like six months (and I'm not lying about this. I even opened a thread about it here on Nairaland then). I immediately took both the opened and unopened ones back to shop to complain to the man where I met him still at his personal Bible study. I told him about my discovery and, without even bothering to check, he returned my money. The good thing, right? Except that it's an indication that he knows those biscuits were expired. The worst part? Right before me, he took the remaining unopened biscuits, put them back in the container where other biscuits were, placed the container back where he usually puts it and returned to his devotional. I was appalled. Since that day, I instead bought whatever I wanted to munch from one of those northern traders on the street but further down the road.

What I'm trying to illustrate is this - this man was obviously a Christian. Wouldn't the good and right thing to do be to throw the expired products away, or at least put them aside for later examination instead of putting them back in amongst other probably unexpired goods? So you see, his Christianity didn't make him do the right thing. So it's not a default something.

Examples like these abound on both sides of the divide, practically on a daily basis. People do good because they are innately good (or have selfish aims being good would help them achieve) same as people do bad things because they are bad (or feel they have justifiable cause for their negative actions).

A-theism literally means not theist. Very well, then: we know what it is not. But what is it?

Perhaps it’s like an onion: you peel and peel it, and discover that there is no core. Its basis is nothing at all.


People should notice that atheists never discuss how atheism would improve, strengthen, or otherwise change theirs or others’ lives for the better. Instead they spend their whole lives criticizing their Creator and religion.


Why can’t atheists be content in talking about their own worldview, in their own circles; rather than constantly bitching and complaining about what they are not/what they used to be? Do they have problems letting go of their past?


They keep telling us that once you are religious, your brain becomes dormant. But these great scientists proved otherwise.

The repeat it even louder - that freethinking is exclusively meant for atheists, but these ones have shown otherwise.


Do they think these people were crazy or something. Or are they saying this because of their hatred for God or unwarranted bigotry.



Also, according to 100 Years of Nobel Prizes, a review of Nobel prizes award between 1901 and 2000 reveals that (65.4%) of Nobel Prizes Laureates, have identified Christianity in its various forms as their religious preference. Overall, Christians have won a total of 78.3% of all the Nobel Prizes in Peace, 72.5% in Chemistry, 65.3% in Physics, 62% in Medicine, 54% in Economics and 49.5% of all Literature awards. We have also seen the successes of countries such as USA, UK and others, that have unofficially labeled themselves as Christian countries in the past.

Note: I’ve not included the successes of any other religion here, I’m simply emphasizing the products of Christianity.



I'm not sure of the contribution of atheism to the progress of humanity, but one thing i'm sure of is that atheists who found their way to power have tried to impose atheism on innocent people to no reasonable end.
I also know that atheists all over the world could be intolerant of christianity especially. --- even on nairaland.
I also know that terrorism from atheists has ridden-ed almost every atheist country that have ever existed.

So what exactly has atheism done for humanity and why do atheists terribly want people to join them in their irrational unbelief in our supreme Creator?
