The Shameful Display Of Hypocrisy By NL Theists by ScepticalPyrrho: 9:11am On Mar 10, 2017
Since the first day I began engaging in the arguments for the existence of God, never have I seen any person(s) display such a cowardly and hypocritical request like that of the theists here on NL which I find highly disgraceful.

It is the shameful attempt by christians and other religious persons to switch the burden of proof to those who from the onset have declared their lack of believe in the existence of their God(s) on the basis of lack of evidence.

This dishonesty have come to be the last resort for rendering meaningful discussions and intelligently progressing arguments useless.

My stance as an atheist have been further strengthened and arguments have become distasteful.

"I lack believe in Yahweh or any other god's existence owing to the absence of proofs"

But before you theists demand for a proof for the inexistence of Yahweh/Orunmila... it is important to clarify the atheistic position.

Atheist simply lack the belief in the existence of God(s)!

Perhaps, the above notion have been misinterpreted to mean the believe in the inexistence of God, that is wrong.

Can I say you believe in the inexistence of SantaClaus, Peter Pan, Ojuju-Calabar, Mamiwater, Bigfoot, Tooth Fairies, Dragons, Vampires etc? No. Because it would mean that you've had evidences to show it exists but chose to believe otherwise. This isn't the case.

I implore you to provide evidences for the existence of the God you believe in. The burden is on you who dedicate so much time to an "idea", not the other way round.

If you can't, it's fine. I will accept that you have chosen to believe even in the absence of proofs.

No one can judge you for believing in anything. But don't present it to us as if they are proven facts. And don't expect us to prove the inexistence of something held unto by mere belief.

Atheism only means sheer antagonism of the Christian God..It bares itself in anger, rage and insults.
I have said you only waste your emotion in futility trying to do this cos we are not deterred and God isnt moved either.
I dont move nor fidget when you tell me Im not who I am..I only laugh you to scorn!
My assertion is 'you dont believe someone exists, sulk it save you are hiding something and an hypocrite'
Atheism gives no hope for the present nor the future! Gbam!!

You're wrong my efforts are not futile. More people have read these conversations and re-examined their faith.
Your unintelligent responses have indicated your lack of sincerity. Thus, many are still being Freed From the shackles of unrealistic religious-teachings.

@bolded, I see you've considered it. But the fear of the inevitable(death) has kept you playing to the tunes of religious dogmas.

Well, grow up. Our lives are short, enjoy it while it lasts.

Just like the fear of 'sinners in the hands of an angry God' makes you opt for a way of escape in atheism..No hiding place for you will all be judged by that God!
You say you are intelligent and dont know anything about end of life...Your mentors died telling you nothing about it.
Please dont patronize your readers! Tell us about atheism and not xtianity...Your intelligence profers neither solutions or answers, it thrives only in criticisms. Speak of atheism, lets hear you.
How wise you think you are?
Atheism is empty, no content in it only criticisms from pervert souls who have failed God!

So, we can have a truce here.

You lack the ability to substantiate your beliefs with evidence.

I am saying it as it is.

If that makes me an atheist. I'm cool with that. But I will never live in delusions of grandeur like you.

Sweat it, repeat it over and over again in ur head. It doesn't make it real, until it is real.

Is that all there is to atheism - lack of belief in God?
Atheism then has no content.
Xtianity is loaded with proofs of Gods existence, omnipotence, omnipresence, omniscience...He is evident in workings in my life as I live based on scriptural principles. I have tasted Jesus and he is just so sweet.
One of you on NL this week admitted that creation is the work of an Almighty who he proposed is Wicked!
God not only exists, He is evident!!!!
I can do you an 100 paged book on God but you can do simple sentences of criticisms of God...You have no conviction, no history, no proofs aside criticisms, no morals. Atheism is purely empty!
I call you today before all that Atheism is empty and hopeless, if not, prove it with accurate details and historical evidences without mentioning other religions.
Base your assertions on atheism cos it seems atheism cant even stand alone without God!

The evidence of God is all around you. When I look at a building, how do I know that there was a builder? I can't see him, hear him, touch, smell or taste him. The evidence of a builder is the building I'm looking at. In other words, the building is the proof positive that there was a builder. The building is the product of the intelligence of the builder. Living things are also evidence of design. Wouldn't it be logical to assume that if man's highly intelligent brain designed the computer, then the human brain was also the product of design? There is your evidence. cool

Aside from all the numerous threads that has failed to prove God's existence, or the inability to present a coherent argument to show how there is necessarily creator and how it so happens to be Allah or Yahweh by theists....

The word "know" or knowledge indicates acquaintance, contact, being real, fact, perceptible, certainty etc.

No one has ever any justification to claim to KNOW God.

People who claim to know God are over stepping.

You can only claim claim believe, because there there are no evidences to backup such wild claims.
