I could have given you an invitation!

Just that I am planning to travel in the next few days out of the country. If not I would have invited you and pay for every expenses that it would involved both for you and me.




No problem at all Sir
Maybe in the nearest future I'll witness a REAL miracle somewhere somehow.
I hope.

Wait seun, are you trying to say that NONE OF THEM, not a single one, is true?? If NONE OF THEM is true, can you provide proof for that?
Very few of them are true. For every true deathbed conversion from atheism story you can give me, I can give you one or more that are false.

Evidence??

there are so many EVIDENCE around you, and you are too blind to accept it?
The creation of this earth and man itself will still remain a mystry to you even when given a proof to you...
With all sense of sanity without any atom of equivocation, believe it or leave it there is a SUPERNATURAL GOD that made everything possible..

logic can't explain everything,its a safe analysis tool but it cant even explain the rationale behind existence,i choose religion not because its perfect(anything made by man is bound to be flawed)but it has a sense of direction.

I don't believe that there are atheists in foxholes. Foxholes are populated by deists.

Why should a theist dive into a foxhole in the first place? There's a god that would protect you, isn't that what you believe
1. You need to stop thinking like a former Christian.
2. Theism is not the same thing as belief in an all powerful God.
3.Theism is not belief in a loving God.
4. Theism is not belief in one God. Some theists believe that there are different gods that are in continuous battle for control of man's destiny.
5. Theism is not belief that God will always act to protect his servants.
6.Theism is simply belief in the existence of a god or gods, specifically of a creator who intervenes in the universe.


You need to stop thinking like a former Christian. I know it is hard but in order for you to be a logical you need to understand the other side.

In the heights of the war in Iraq, God called on a soldier to minister to the rest of soldiers, telling them about the Love of Christ. a lot of soldiers surrender there life to Christ and got them baptized!This is worth sharing!

smh. I guess you lack knowledge of what a foxhole is. A foxhole is a trench used during infantry combat for protection purposes.

Its simple a term used strictly for war zone purposes. I suggest you brush yourself up.

Simply put a foxhole is for soldiers in the heart and heat of battle so I guess iraq wad not the heart and heat of battle for those soldiers who got baptized.

eeyahh chai so you copied and pasted the OP without first trying to find out what a foxhole is and where its applied and for whom? Na wa for ignorance!

Maybe if you took some few seconds to read OP, you'll have said something much better, but knowing you.......

Some Soldiers are known to have an increase in "superstition" as war level increases

Such soldiers may actually "accept" Jesus if approached at such times

But this that's not what this thread is about

No doubt, I addressed your post in the thread already

Many people would accept Jesus, Judaism, Vishnu etc as war heats up, they'll do certain things that they wouldn't have done outside if there were no war

This thread is just addressing the saying that at that height of war there is NO atheist there, they all start worshipping one god or the other and I sighted examples of those that have faced almost certain death and life threatening situation and remained atheist before during and after it

You can go to the "Research" section of this article and see for yourself

If Humans fail to worship God, He will raise stones. I sometimes tire when atheists fail to recognize the human limit. I cant find any other word for it but foolishness.

Your thread was a mirror effect to show how strong Atheism still is even in the face of fear so stop trying to make a nonsensical argument. Your thread would have made sense if you had provided a statistical comparison of Before and after of the number of Atheists who went into War and the number who remained atheists in the face of battle and afterwards.

But you cannot do that because you and I already know that the drastic and massive flocking to Religion and God would be shocking so its as good as rating the number of those left to atheism as minimally insignificant.

Science keeps hailing God while atheists delude themselves into thinking that it negates God.

Thats a very recent discovery which we Christians have been making use of long before now. We know and see what carnal men cannot know and see.

Thanks for sharing bro.

Correction I didnt bother reading the OP as your modus operandi is well known to me so I can see through you even with my eyes closed.

My response was no ammendment but a candid advice and response to your response.

So tell me statistically out of 2000 atheists who go to war how many do you think would come back as atheists especially since you already said soldiers are known to look to God or gods during the heat of stress or battle. Truthfully answer pls.

Like I said your articles always have a methodology which I have come to know so reading it is not necessary to me. All I needed to see was the heading and I knew it was a mirror effect topic.

So pls answer my question. What empirical data of your own have you got?

The empirical data speaks in favour of Religion but what is your own data saying? In favour of Religion or Atheism?
