You want definition of God?.

Here it is. I was on my way to Chicago from New York. I'm am the pilot with bunch of Atheists on board. When I reach 35,000 above sea level, I nose dive the aircraft at the top speed...going straight to hit mountains. By the time I reach 15,000, all Atheists on board start screaming and yelling including yourself.

They scream.......[size=20pt]"OH GOD OH OH OH GOD........OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD"[/size]


When I hear them scream I pull up. They simply quiet and say "Thank you God"


What bothers me is that, they claim they don't believe in God. They don't believe in nothing. How come that scream God's help when they are in trouble?. Why don't they scream OH NOTHHING?.

Same thing happened to Dawkins when he was debating theist. He forgot name of something and touched his forehead trying to remember. He said "oh God"


So don't you think you deceiving yourself HardMirror?.. I'm sure that would have been your reaction in the scenario I described if you were to be in a distressed aircraft.

Keep deceiving yourself like seun
This would only mean that their belief was nothing but an emotional reaction to their situation. There are also people who have stuck to their unbelief in times of great distress. It is a matter of conviction and emotional capacity I think.

Lwkm.
Nigerians please, for once read and understand something before typing rubbish.

I just read the evidence provided by the challengers of the thread and I found out that understanding isn't as easy as I had thought.

The guy was a christain when he tried to convert an atheist.

Thereafter, he realized religion is a scam and he became a secret atheist.
Then, Seun's post brought him out of hiding.

Is it really that difficult to comprehend?

Read and understand.
Don't read like you're cramming for an mbbs exam. I'm begging oo.

As for the ones looking for a conversion
story before they'll believe the op was a
pastor, if that is a criterion to ascertain if someone is a true pastor or not.
Then, I'll say I've been meeting fake preachers all my life.

I don't really see the reason for all the nonsense talk going on here.
That is the problem. They actually think scandals will diminish my courage. When you look at their comments well, you see the effort is just to suppress me, they are not here to make sense. It's like an online mob.

See underlined, what is your definition of "unbelief". "Unbelief" in God would mean they belief in something (other deities) to get stuck with. They have to shout name of something like Khrishna, Jesus etc. But in the case of Atheists, they claim they simply dont believe in any deities. How come they shout God when they are uncomfortable?. Tell me what phrase(s) atheist screams when he/she is in distress, "Ooo NOthing"?

Lol. My brother,don't mind them.
This is exactly the same thing I'm going through in my school WhatsApp group.

Some said I'm using hypnotism and seduction to make people reject Christianity. I felt sad at first till I decided not to feel that way since I'm doing the right thing.

Most of them go personal so as to shut you up. Scandals upon scandals. At the end,the truth will always prevail.

Carry on with your good work. All I see here is personal beef from all these theists. I was even looking for the hard proof they were masturbating on only for me to see how shallow-minded most of them have become just to defend jeebus christ.

You have my support 100%
Continue pulling off the web fogging up their brains till they start using them correctly.

Lool....now you fVck it all up grin

Far as I am concern, anytime people said "holy sh!t", it is usually for excitement (like seeing beautiful women or laughable words) not something distressfully. Hope you understand?

For something distressful or endanger their lives, they most definitely scream a deity.

What is this? Have you ever checked a dictionary for all the entries of the word 'God'? If you haven't please do.

The guy is correct.

Unless u want to say u are a fan of the people who dont think before they say things like Dawkins.

You go check up the root origin of the english phrase "Oh my God".

Then make your assertions

Thats dictionary meaning, not origin. Go n check the root origin of the phrase, just like "praise the Lord". U garrit?

Odd. What do you mean by believer of science? Even religious folks believe in science (more than their god) or why do you think they rush to hospitals and not god when they have health issues. As for freethinking and atheism I don't know what you mean.
Your reply still points to one direction, which is that you really need tutoring, as I previously said.

I would have asked that you turn to Seun for that but with his recent 'Sun worship' post, it seems I was wrong in assuming that he had knowledge of what you need to be tutored in.

Anyway, I will keep an open eye and if I come across one with the knowledge you seek, I'll refer you right away.
If it makes u feel important.

U dont seem to be able to differentiate "meaning" and 'origin'.
Thats why u support people who dont think before talking.

Important means of much or great significance or consequence.

Judging that the reference would help a great deal in your journey, it sure does.

My point is that many English words have more than one meaning. The word ''God'' is not an exception.

Does this mean that you look for the origin of every word before you use them, or does your concern for etymology kick in only when religion is being discussed?

I can see how great a thinker you are. Your powers of 'thinking' only become activated when you are discussing with atheists.

Seems u dont remember what Christianity teaches?
So if the root origin of an exclamation is against my innermost belief and conviction, I can continue saying it?

Yeah right,
Will u now pause for a while?

Really. Kindly give us examples of other words in use whose origin are against your ''innermost beliefs''.

I guess you know my life story more than me. How does this thread contradict anything I have ever claimed? In my "from pastor to atheist" did I not reveal that I was scared of telling people I was no longer a christian and even kept praying and ministering to people while I was secretly an atheist?
You just want to be petty cheesy
[color=teal]lying to oneself is the worst thing a man can do to himself.

You're a confused Christian.
you seek the definition of God, the same God you went about preachingundecided

Lolz. Christians and non-Christians alike consider ''go to hell'' indecent, same as ''idiot'' or ''dumbass''. Tell me a word that is acceptable that has a questionable origin that you don't use. And is this the only example you can think of?
