Exactly my thought.

Mark has confirmed that he is no atheist, I wonder why seun sounds so pained.

Smh!

Maybe he has been using Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates to boast about how intelligent atheists are.

The news of Mark's non atheism must have hit him hard like Dangote trailer.

Are you an atheist?

Mark: No.



End of story.

Edenoscar:


All i want is proof that the invicible being exist, is that too much to ask

i said invisible which means you cannot see it with the physical eye. Let me ask you this, can you hold your shadow?

Jesuobu:
Wishing everyone Merry Christmas means wishing Jesus happy birthday. Abi you wan change jam

"I wish you a merry christmas" does that make me a christian

Rilwayne001:
This seun sef. Mark Zuckerberg refusing to join your delusion of atheism is really paining your ass, because i see no reason trying to rationalize is response to mean that he is not really a theist.

let him wallow in denial while Mark celebrate xmas with family

ireneony:
I never went through any phase but there was a time i had my doubts due to the fact how religion have messed up the way Africans thinks. No matter are you try to deny it, just remember that there is a invisible being at there. Someone believing in God does not mean he must practice any religion.

Just like a deist.
Now I get you.

Opakan2:




the mod wey push am go fp sef don kolo.. he used 'an atheist' for him own boss.

wetin pesin no go see for Naija

hahaha no be atheist him be.

The thing pain Seun. Hahaha haha, sorry bro, make e no bother except you are an atheist just because the owner of Facebook is an atheist.

Supposing the religion Zuckerberg is referring to is Buddhism or Jainism or Islam?

ireneony:
i said invisible which means you cannot see it with the physical eye. Let me ask you this, can you hold your shadow?

and you are so sure this "invincible" being exist

darkmarky:
seun has a problem, he answered the question and the audience of Facebook are satisfied.

keep your atheism crap to yourself, it's nothing but hypocrisy. answer this what's the primary source of moral standard?

They will come and tell you that human beings are born with innate morality abi they evolved with innate morality.

Funny how Christians on here are celebrating as if Mark Zuckerberg gave his life to Christ,
Mark's answer does not really define were he stands though,
He said that he was born in a Jewish home, isn't an atheist, And that religion is important,
This doesn't mean that he is a believer though,
If someone is not an atheist, it doesn't mean that he is theist,
He could be agnostic

GOD WILL REMAIN GOD. ..EITHER U BELieV OR NOT

Seun:
On facebook, in reply to his Christmas and Hanukkah greeting, someone asked Mark Zuckerberg, "but aren't you atheist?" He replied, "No. I was raised Jewish and then I went through a period where I questioned things, but now I believe religion is very important."

This is unfortunate. If not for the explicit "no", I would have said that he was dodging the question, but he said it. He threw atheism under the bus. He has made it very clear to everybody that he doesn't identify as an atheist and doesn't want to be considered as an atheist. Bless him. This doesn't mean he's not an atheist, of course; an atheist is simply someone who doesn't hold a belief in the existence of any God.

I don't believe for one second that Mark believes in the existence of the Jewish God. The one who forbade Jews from eating pork instead of teaching them how to cook it properly. Who created foreskins to protect the sensitive tips of male organs, but then ordered the Jews to cut them off their newborn babies. Who permitted Jews to enslave foreigners and treat them as property, even though he created all people. Who made women menstruate but then declared that a menstruating woman is unclean, and anyone who touches her - even her husband - is also unclean. Who banished children of single parents and their descendants from entering his temple for 400 years (the 10th generation). Who commanded Jews to commit genocide many many times. Whose favorite person in the whole world (David) was a serial mass murderer.

I don't believe that Mark believes in that God. And since he hasn't talked about any other God, I continue to believe that he is an atheist. He may choose to call himself an agnostic, a cultural Jew, or whatever helps Facebook and his family, but that doesn't mean he's not an atheist.

I wonder how ur ugly and snailish ur prick will looks, I knw u won't be proud to walk in front of ur woman unclad

Azil:
Are you an atheist?

Mark: No.



End of story.

no one became an atheist because of zugerburg so it doesnt matter

DeSepiero:
What if Mark lied?

...then I guess that lie is a positive one!

Mark never said he believed in religion, he simply stated "I believe religion is important"
Also, He meant every damn religion in the world
Every single one of them
Not christianity in particular
And he never said he believed in any god
I don't understand why christians are having multiple orgasms over that statement


That just shows how shallow-intellectual they are

Mr Seun nice points you have raised,they are all once sided,there are also good aspects in the bible,please investigate more you will come to believe in the Almighty God,the world and the universe is his kingdom, and he set the rules,so he also has the right to at anytime ask for new rules be set,beside read the Book of Mormon, I promise you,that your life will be changed for ever

Seun, why are you so pained about Mark Zuckerberg's professed belief stance? Everyone must not be an angry atheist or conform to your prescribed belief path in life.

SuperSuave:
See seun fooling himself in front of all. Simple "No" you can't comprehend.

lwkmd the meme tho lol

That one questions things doesn't make one an atheist, recently started questioning things but I don't see myself as an atheist, cos I know there is a God some where, I only decided to differentiate between being religious and being a Christian

fellis:


They will come and tell you that human beings are born with innate morality abi they evolved with innate morality.

then I will show them how myopic the context is because this so called innate morality doesn't stop a man from killing his wife and children, government from hurting the masses and doesn't stop war. but the words of God and fear of God have harmonize the world, strive the government to formulate rule of law, guide humans to do good and help one another.

who knows if Mark was his role model

The trailer really jam him

I think atheism arise because people are making the mistake of seeing God from the perspectives of religion.

God has nothing to do with religion!!.

(1). "Atheism is nonsense".........Isaac Newton.

(2). “I am a deeply religious nonbeliever. This is a somewhat new kind of religion”..........Albert Einstein, in a letter to Hans Muehsam, March 30, 1954.

(3). “I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with fates and actions of human beings.”.................Albert Einstein, upon being asked if he believed in God by Rabbi Herbert Goldstein of the Institutional Synagogue, New York, April 24, 1921.

(4). “I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one. You may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the crusading spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from the fetters of religious indoctrination received in youth. I prefer an attitude of humility corresponding to the weakness of our intellectual understanding of nature and of our own being.”............. Albert Einstein, to Guy H. Raner Jr., September 28, 1949.

(5). “In view of such harmony in the cosmos which I, with my limited human mind, am able to recognize, there are yet people who say there is no God?. But what really makes me angry is that they quote me for the support of such views.”............Albert Einstein, according to the testimony of Prince Hubertus of Lowenstein; as quoted by Ronald W. Clark.

As you can see above, what great minds do is try to explain God not totally dismiss it. Though I don't consider Mark Zuckerberg a great mind, but all I can assure you is that a great mind CANNOT be an atheist. Its not possible!!.

At least he questioned some things, but naija pple no dey every question anything concerning religio

I even forgot to add that surprisingly, all the latest scientific inventions are mostly through the Jews,will you question God for that special privilege granted to them?

That just shows how shallow-intellectual they are

correct, they make it seem as if he will start preaching the gospel. Smh for these guys

sinaj:
And why will he lie? Assuming he did, that will only mean he is ashamed of atheism

What if he is ashamed of atheism

Following.................

This statement is very interesting. It shows the human capacity to choose. In this case you have chosen to believe something, in spite of tenable evidence to the contrary.

How wonderful it would be if men could choose to believe the awesome majesty of an unseen yet all too visible God, who has created all things according to His perfect plan. A God whose intelligence is far more than human comprehension.

You have raised many points. But can you also choose to believe that many things you don't understand are still carrying out defined and divine purposes whether you are aware of them or not.
