| How All Atheists Read The Bible And The Genesis Of Their Folly. by KingOfAmebo(op): 1:41pm On Dec 29, 2016*. Modified: 1:57pm On Dec 29, 2016 |
Judging from the interaction I have had with Atheists on this forum I was able to see from their responses how they understood the Bible. The problem with all Atheists is that they read the Bible like it was a novel and think all the characters in the Bible have literal meaning...For instance, they think the dragon with ten heads described in the book of Revelations or any other chapter in the Bible is actually a dragon with ten heads. This of course is the genesis of their misinformation and misinterpretation of the Bible, rather than help themselves by searching for truth they engage in fruitless arguments and laughable denials that God doesn't exists. Similar, this bunch of people have held unto this awkward belief for centuries while Christianity still grows in millions(is it possible that millions of people will continue to be so dumb for centuries for believing God actually exists?), you can help yourself with Google and see the interpretations of the book of Revelations to have a deeper knowledge about how symbolism and characters are played out in the Bible. This problem of yours is the genesis of your confusion and instead of searching for truth you dwell in more confusion. People like the great scientist, Isaac Newton and the others understood this that's why with such great knowledge in science they still acknowledge the existence of God. You are far less intelligent than them so your views about the existence of God CANNOT be taken seriously. In other words, you CANNOT be more scientific than these great men who shaped mankind with there scientific discoveries: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Christians_in_science_and_technology Atheists are still a very small minority out of the population of all that believed God exists, this has been the case for centuries and it will continue that way forever. Millions upon millions of people can't be wrong for centuries and that growth will continue forever. So, Atheists should start getting used to it or port to the other side while there is still time. |

KingOfAmebo:First of all, go and defend your symbolic views of the bible with the Anabaptist groups and any other group who interpret the bible literally,atheist are not the only one guilty of this There are some sectors of christianity who believe that by taking the holy communion they eat and drink (literally) the body and blood of jesus christ, When It says Fornicators will burn in Hell forever that is what it means. When it says Liars will be tormented, that is what means. When it says Love your neighbor as yourself, that is what it means. When It says Love Jesus Christ, and His Father With ALL YOUR HEART SOUL & MIND! That is What IT MEANS! What makes you think your own interpretation is more accurate than theirs. |

Oga OP....aka Mr Amebo... I am not a regular comentator on NL....but when an Issue really pushes me, i just go off a limb and say something. Leave the Atheists alone would you??!! Or are you gradually embracing the Free-thinkers mindset?...... You mentioned in your last so-called "open Letter" to Seun about how "God" would arrest him and all...... Hopefullandlord and others asked you constrctive questions, and debunked your -pleading to an Authority- a funny mistake you still made here by mentioning Sir Isaac Newton. From the persecution and constant attacks on the Atheists, you are unknowingly giving them the audience they deserve to break your Christian faith into shambles. So live your life....worship your god( the letter "g" was no mistake).......and leave these guys alone. Afterall....it takes real gut to say NO to what everyone believes and accepts as a Norm. That is my one kobo comment. PS: I don't do blind aimless debates......if you want to quote me, quote for a good reason.......... Cheers!! |

Edenoscar:Read my post again incase you don't understand...I am talking about symbolism, parables and characters...not all writings are literal. You can't lie and be considered a saint You can't hate your neighbors and expect peace You can't hate Jesus Christ and expect salvation These are literal words and can NOT be considered as symbolism, parables and/or characters. This is common sense enough. |

randomperson:Please get out of dilutions and do a research yourself...use google if you are lazy and see the staggering statistics that Christianity is growing while Atheism is stagnant same as it was over the centuries. I understand you are trying to make it look like you bunch of ignorant minorities want to be relevant, but let me burst your bubble, you have been a minority for hundreds of years and you all will remain that way forever.... why? because your views are totally awkward. Humanity have come to realize that we didn't just find ourselves here, someone somewhere is definitely pulling the strings. |

oteneaaron:Bro...don't sit on the fence, call a spade a spade...this guy's try as much as they can to ridicule our faith(that's if you a Christian) and you expect me to just watch. I will defend my faith no matter what...I don't know about you. God is using me to give the enemies of light a sleepless night and I am gonna make them realize their folly with my last breath. Incase you don't know, seun osewa felt threatened and deleted all my post on the open letter, do you think this is right? now you know this evil agenda is real...I urge my fellow Christian brothers and sisters to resist the devil and his mission of misleading young Christians...if it is necessary and I don't get enough support from my Christian brothers and Sisters i will engage in this battle all by myself with my last breath. Open your eyes, evil is real...will you stand for Jesus Christ or Deny him in trying times? |

akintom:You are the one that needs deliverance from your awkward belief that God doesn't exist...funny you mentioned a pastor. |

hopefulLandlord:Everything, I mean everything will make sense the moment you realize you didn't just appear from nowhere and found yourself on this planet or you think you created yourself. Open a book with beautiful pictures...do you think the book made itself?...visit a mansion and think the mansion just fell from the skies, this is the irony, nothing create nothing... someone is responsible for creation. The day you open your mind to realize this basic fact the better for your understanding that God exists. |

KingOfAmebo:Some things in the bible are literal and some things are figurative and some things are both. So, who's to say which things are literal and which things are figurative? Pretty much whenever it suits the point you want to make you take it literally. when it doesn't support a point you want to make you take it symbolically or figurativelly or metaphorically. |

KingOfAmebo:It would have been necessary, if i had been fooling around with the name of folk like Richard Dawkins. What about pastor that i can't mention? |

randomperson:Hahaha...keep deceiving yourself, when you are done let me know. Are these the only links you got to fool yourself that your permanent minority of Atheists are growing? Well, I got just one link for you: Google Wikipedia...and run a search, do it with someone incase you find yourself crying and need someone to console you. |

Edenoscar:So, you mean a dragon with ten heads is actually real and I am trying to "make it suit the point I want to make me take it literally" You can do better than this... sadly, you are still exposing your ignorance Instead of learning. |
| Re: How All Atheists Read The Bible And The Genesis Of Their Folly. by Edenoscar(m): 7:53pm On Dec 30, 2016 |
KingOfAmebo:ok, but are you aware of bible literalists? |

All of your words reeks of hatred. Hatred doesn't drive out hatred, love does. Ergo, if you think you'll contain atheism with this attitude you've put on, I'm sorry you're on the verge of committing suicide. Also, you suffer -- forgive me, I couldn't find the mildest word to use -- from hyper-delusion. You want to fight god's battle all by yourself? Why don't you leave god to fight for himself. Since he's the almighty, let him use his almightiness to reconvert every atheist on the surface of the earth. You also were looking for cheap support from other christian folks thereby exposing the flaws in Christianity. OP, wake up to the truth. Free yourself from the shackles of religion. Love you brother. |
