See your very first comment here which you made NOT TO ME but to a comment made by your fellow atheist who is also suffering the same vivid imagination syndrome with you of a non existing God.

Don't mind him... his so called all powerful all everything God cannot prove himself to those lack belief in him just because they have refused to accept what does not sound real to them.

What a petty cry baby God. Acting so much like pregnant woman.

How i wish judgment day is real... we will put yahweh and allah where they rightfully belong

So much imagination about this non existent God on display grin

So you wish to put a non existent God where he belongs cheesy

You also imagine that this non existent God is a cry baby grin

Well insanity is in stages and various degrees so I wouldn't be surprised if you are yet to realise that vivid imagination over an already declared non existent being to you is simply insanity in a tuxedo. grin

Use your vivid imagination make life changing Inventions...NA LIE.

If i say your imaginary God is such a cry baby isnt it based on ur attribute of him? should i be referring to my neigbours dog as a cry baby instead of your imaginary God whom u are trying to show exists? are u not the one who said ur imaginary God will not show himself to me because I dont believe he exists? is the act of anyone not showing himself to me because i dont believe not petty and childish?

LMAO since I have now schooled you. You are now deliberately putting IMAGINARY on every available space in your sentences grin cheesy

When you troll this non existent God with your foolishness does this not show a combination of idiocy and buffoonery on your part?

Constantly whining and nagging over this non existent imaginary God as if he flogs you everyday with a spiked horsewhip cheesy

Let me show you how foolish you are. Carefully answer the question below.

IF YOU ALREADY DECLARED SOMETHING OR SOMEONE DOES NOT EXIST, WHY THEN ARE YOU STILL EXPECTING THIS SAME ALREADY DECLARED NON EXISTENT BEING OR THING TO SHOW ITSELF TO YOU?

It is either you are not even sure of your declaration or you are insane if after burning the only ball in existence you still wake up everyday hoping to still see the ball in your room.

Indeed your insanity is a factory fitted one.

Another lengthy meaningless rant over a non existent God grin cheesy

Such depth of stupidity you display cannot possibly be real cheesy

You asked me TO SHOW you God as if he is some commodity on display in your imaginary store grin

I am trying to show you how sane people reason but of course mad man no dey ever gree say e dey mad cheesy

If something does not exist or NEVER existed how come you keep doing the following

1. Whining and complaining about him
2. Keep asking to see him
3. Keep asking for evidence for his existence
4. Giving yourself sleepless nights and high blood pressure over him
5. Why are you still responding to me about this non existent God?

I am sure you have not spent this much time and energy on actual existent things like READING BOOKS, INVENTIVE THINKING, RELATIONSHIP BUILDING. etc

Let me give you another example.

Can you cook or eat a meal whose ingredients do not exist?

Can you take a bath with water that does not exist?

Can you claim you made clothes from a material that does not exist?

You see, Sane people have a certain way they reason but it is only insane people who spend time, energy, whining and nagging over things they say are unreal or non existent. grin

Life is short, snatch back your sanity this 2018 unless of course if just like God you also claim your life does not exist cheesy

Why do you wish to see proof of a God you ALREADY declared does not exist? Your insanity is like peak milk (it's in you) grin

If I claim God is real and you claim He is not real and you are sure that he is not real why would my claim bother you so much so that you are ranting and whining and pleading for proof of his existence? cheesy Or are you now no longer sure of your declaration?

Only someone who isn't absolutely sure about his original THERE IS NO GOD declaration that would still be begging for proof after such a declaration. Or do you not know what the term DOES NOT EXIST means?

If you had said "God probably exists but I need proof to be sure " then would you be making sense.

But when you say GOD DOES NOT EXIST. This is not a probability neither is it a supposition but a stark declaration from a position of certainty.

So why still seek for proof of Gods existence after making such a declaration or do you get your cake back after eating it? This is why I said your imagination is vivid and tangible like that of a mad man who alone sees boxers on the street and is busy punching the air as if they were real grin

This is what you are doing here. You claim God does not exist yet you just cannot stop talking about him and whining on and on about him while demanding for proof.

Even your dog knows when there is no food in its plate and does not begin to imagine it and chew the plate while imagining it is food. You are supposed to be more intelligent than your dog so stop acting like you ate from the crumbs of intelligence that fell from your dogs plate.

Why is butterflyl1on defending and making a case for an Almighty and all powerful God that can do all things and also WANTS to be in a relationship with people, so that he can save them from some eternal place of torture he has prepared for them if they fail to accept him or do things according to his will? Did any body woo Butterflyl1on's girl friend or wife on his behalf? Why then is he telling people what his God wants and making a case for him?

BudaAtum, I see you are in the habit of continually accusing the esteemed Butterflyl1on of criminal offences without a shred of evidence. I have investigated this with your best friend Otem, he claims his god revealed this rubbish to him. When he was asked by Butterflyl1on to present a copy of the email conversation between him and Butterflyl1on he made poor excuses.
At the bolded, guy you can lie for Africa o. So I told you that a god revealed Butterflyl1on to me as a scammer? No, it was glaring that he is a scammer. We all know him to be a scammer in real time. His real name is Samuel Chinedum Ekwueme and I have everything I need to write about him in the history book already, so why bother over someone whose real name, father's identity and chieftancy position, wife's name, date of birth and genealogy is already known when the whole world including his son Raphael Akachukwu Ekwueme will see it in the future? If you are eager to know him in person, why not ask him for his contacts so you can know the criminal in person?

I find it funny when atheists mock religion and accuse the adherents of having illusion...if one is to sincerely thread the line of atheism then basically everything one does is an illusion and to an extent 'existence' itself is no more than an illusion...
From this one can say living as an atheist is in itself an illusion as the universe is not even aware of your 'supposed existence'...So an atheist accusing others of being disillusioned while pursuing basic human needs himself is no less deluded than the those he is spiting...
Edit: I thought atheists are supposed to be against any belief in the existence of a 'god' or 'spirit' but here on nairaland athiests are always in 'bromance' with Otematum's and Sonoflucifer's posts even though by atheist standard they are supposed to be 'figment of imagination'...hmmn maybe here atheism is only synonymous to anti-christianity...

You say the world has a creator and his name is yahweh or allah or amadioha and he is loving and almighty and will burn me if i dont acceot he exists. I say i see no God, where is he? How did u know his name? Why should he burn for not believing he exists? Prove to me he exists or ask him to talk to me directly. How is this an illusion? Or dont u know the meaning of illusion?

I find it amusing that you input consciousness to the universe such that it needs to be aware of ones existence. If I read you correctly, the gods are aware of ones existence for some reason or the other, and the universe also is aware of ones existence. I wonder if the gods and the universe are considered to be the same thing by you? And I wonder at the sense of self importance one must have to assume the entire universe knows and cares that one exists. Vanity is the word that is used in Ecclesiates to describe existence.

Existence itself cannot be an illusion, though one can be deluded in ones perception. It is a similar predicament facing the schizophrenic who sees demons where nothing exists. Indeed, anyone who sees things that are not there is deluded, but thankfully, most believers don't claim to have seen their gods which is why they merely believe in their gods' existence. If they actually know their gods exist, they would not claim to just believe.

But all this would matter not, if it actually had no consequence. A favorite hymn of mine starts, "We are building a people of power". I unfortunately do not see any power in people who cower in fear of going to hell and who do not boldly go forward in their faith creating heaven on earth as they are asked to do. What I see is people on their knees begging their gods and paying their pastors to save them from hell and damnation. All that effort and resource could make the world a better place, but currently it goes to making a tiny few mighty rich while deadening the brains of its sheep, unfortunately.

I find it funny when atheists mock religion and accuse the adherents of having illusion...if one is to sincerely thread the line of atheism then basically everything one does is an illusion and to an extent 'existence' itself is no more than an illusion...
From this one can say living as an atheist is in itself an illusion as the universe is not even aware of your 'supposed existence'...So an atheist accusing others of being disillusioned while pursuing basic human needs himself is no less deluded than the those he is spiting...
Edit: I thought atheists are supposed to be against any belief in the existence of a 'god' or 'spirit' but here on nairaland athiests are always in 'bromance' with Otematum's and Sonoflucifer's posts even though by atheist standard they are supposed to be 'figment of imagination'...hmmn maybe here atheism is only synonymous to anti-christianity...

I still can't understand how a lack of belief metamorphosis into a type of belief.
In conclusion, atheism is not and cannot be regarded as a type of religion.

atheism is lack of faith in a deity. wtf is wrong with you guys?

is theism a religion?

Theism is broadly defined as the belief in the existence of the Supreme Being or
deities

Atheism is commonly understood as rejection of theism in the broadest sense of theism, i.e. the rejection of belief in God or gods.

what the hell is the argument about again that it has reached 11 pages?

do not be too personal on this issue...may be i am not getting it right...the forum is meant to share knowledge.... so see yourself as one who is part of the global knowledge center...

you personally do not believe GOD EXIST AND I THINK most, if not all ATHEIST like you do not believe GOD EXIST....IS THIS not GENERAL AGREEMENT among atheist WORLDWIDE not base on faith position? ....

faith is a believe system about a particular phenomenon rather than proof(free dictionary)so atheism is not a claim of knowledge but faith

so tell me if most atheist do not share the same believe system? or is the agreement of atheism that GOD do not exist objectively verified ?

your reply may convinced me...

Stop embarassing yourself. I dissected your reply and responded to it bit by bit and made nonsese of ur response. There couldnt have been a clearer response and u know it.
Cover urself in shame and get out of here like a scared puppy
Jeez... for you to claim you refuted my assertion is a sign of delusion in itself...take a deep breath...read my assertion again and read your reply as well...how is there any correlation between them? Well... as I said earlier, I don't have enough time to waste on one who not only lack simple comprehension skill but also blind to see it...Shalom
