So how do I "look" on a faceless forum?

Do you see my face? Yet you said how I "look".

I am sure you would still not see the irony and how you just helped me school you so effortlessly.

ROTFL This wannabe atheist Superhumanist is making atheism look bad.
Richard Dawkins must be saying, "THE END IS NEAR" after fearfully watching you effectively destroy the very foundations of his beloved atheism. The Gay movement is synonymous with Atheism as we all know.

They have slaved to destroy Christianity for hundreds of years and FAILED !!!

You BUTTERFLYLEO has effectively destroyed their precious beliefs in one month

The only atheists left now are Superhumanist and those that have lost their marbles.

Inserting a pennies into an anus is synonymous with inserting ATHEISM into religion.
IT STINKS !!!

This demented atheist is looking for his marbles. He is unable to prove mathematically that his deity NO-GOD exist.

To give Superhumanist the benefit of the doubt, we all know that proving anything mathematically is very, very difficult.
The word PROOF has two vital meanings. The one meaning that stumps atheists are mathematical proof. The other one that is totally foreign to Atheists is known as "BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT.

I can acknowledge beyond reasonable doubt that this is a so-called religious section set up to mock innocent religions.

superhumanist:
Atheists say some of the things you mentioned but not all.

So you admitting they spread some of those lies.

I'm interested to know which ones they don’t say?

1.Religion has caused more harm than technology. That is true.

Can’t be. Every single war that happens today uses technology to kill their enemies. Not every war is fought for religious reasons. Hence technology causes more harm than religion.

2. Atheism is not a belief. It is a lack of belief.

A belief is the state of mind in which an individual takes something to be the case. You an atheist, so you take it to be the case that no deity exists, hence you have a belief.
You lack the belief I have, that is that a deity exists. So in whatever terms you want to put it, atheism is a belief. If not, define “belief” and explain why atheism is not a belief.

3. No one has been killed in the name of atheism.

Except the first officially declared atheist nation Albania killed people in the name of atheism. As the following extract from the Wikipedia "state atheism" shows:

... The campaign against religion peaked in the 1960s. Beginning in February 1967 the Albanian authorities launched a campaign to eliminate religious life in Albania . Despite complaints, even by APL members, all churches, mosques, monasteries, and other religious institutions were either closed down or converted into warehouses, gymnasiums, or workshops by the end of 1967. By May 1967, religious institutions had been forced to relinquish all 2,169 churches, mosques, cloisters, and shrines in Albania, many of which were converted into cultural centers for young people. As the literary monthly Nendori reported the event, the youth had thus "created the first atheist nation in the world."

Clerics were publicly vilified and humiliated, their vestments were taken and desecrated. More than 200 clerics of various faiths were imprisoned, others were forced to seek work in either industry or agriculture, and some were executed or starved to death. The cloister of the Franciscan order in Shkodër was set on fire, which resulted in the death of four elderly monks.

Article 37 of the Albanian Constitution of 1976 stipulated, "The state recognizes no religion, and supports atheistic propaganda in order to implant a scientific materialistic world outlook in people.", and the penal code of 1977 imposed prison sentences of three to ten years for "religious propaganda and the production, distribution, or storage of religious literature." A new decree that in effect targeted Albanians with Muslim and Christian names, stipulating that citizens whose names did not conform to "the political, ideological, or moral standards of the state" were to change them. It was also decreed that towns and villages with religious names must be renamed. Hoxha's brutal antireligious campaign succeeded in eradicating formal worship, but some Albanians continued to practice their faith clandestinely, risking severe punishment . Individuals caught with Bibles, Qurans, icons, or other religious objects faced long prison sentences. Religious weddings were prohibited.

Parents were afraid to pass on their faith, for fear that their children would tell others . Officials tried to entrap practicing Christians and Muslims during religious fasts, such as Lent and Ramadan, by distributing dairy products and other forbidden foods in school and at work, and then publicly denouncing those who refused the food. Those clergy who conducted secret services were incarcerated. Catholic priest Shtjefen Kurti had been executed for secretly baptizing a child in Shkodër in 1972 ...

Seems people were killed in the name of atheism.

4. Christianity was against science at times in the past.

What times, ancient, medieval, early modern period?

Of the two kinds of proof, REASONABLE doubt based on experiential evidence is the best way to bring a REASONABLE person "Beyond REASONABLE doubt."

The tried and thoroughly tested witness of the HOLY Gospel accounts of JESUS is more than enough proof beyond reasonable doubt.

Atheists on the other hand, has failed to provide REASONABLE doubt that their deity called NO-GOD even exist.

Butterflyleo:
As I chat with atheists here on nairaland I tend to also study them and their styles of argument which unknown to them, projects their mental states through their writing and I have come to discover a few rather shocking things as I studied them.

I will begin this OP with a quote by Robert Reich the former U.S labour secretary under former President Bill Clinton when he said and I quote

"God is worse than terrorism"! He argued that followers of God pose a more significant threat to the 21st Century world than terrorists do and concluded by saying,

“ the great conflict of the modern world will not be between the West and terrorism but between those who believe in the primacy of the individual and those who believe that human beings owe their allegiance and identity to a higher authority; between those who believe in science, reason, and logic and those who believe that truth is revealed through Scripture and religious dogma”.

These rather illogical choice of words are the lengths atheists resort to while trying to negate the existence of God to themselves FIRST and then by extension, to their readers. This process of self negation involves playing of many mental games that well and truly stretches their psychological defense mechanisms.

The three men, who made atheism popular in the 19th Century, had almost the same experiences early in their lives, and there is a common psychological pattern evident in their later lives of rebellion.

They are, Friedrich Nietzsche, Thomas Henry Huxley and Sigmund Freud. They all had very similar psychological challenges and issues in their lives. They all had cruel fathers who often exerted domineering tendencies on them, they all suffered very high levels of depression and chronic obsessive fears. They therefore made it their lifes goal to destroy God, who to them represented a symbol of their fathers.

Since the existence of God is a reality (Yes I said that it is a reality so it is not a typo and is not open to debate either), an atheists mind protects itself from this rather profound reality through rejection of God’s existence using several psychological defense mechanisms such as i have observed in basically all Nairaland atheists. These psychological defense mechanisms are,

1) Rationalization

2) Repression

3) Displacement

4) Suppression and denial

Rationalization is an atheist’s number one favourite psychological defense mechanism. They very much depend on false reasoning that sounds logical to negate to themselves, the reality of God. They will throw loads and loads of reasons at Christians as to why God does not exist, and make them sound as logical as possible.

I will quote from a book written by John Pasquini, titled, Atheist Personality Disorder and he said thus,

"Addressing a Distorted Mindset, points out that atheists are good at using pedantic language to convince themselves and others, as they fool themselves that they are intellectually superior, while in the real sense, they are mere rationalizers."

Displacement is another extremely popular coping mechanism that an atheist uses. They always shift their anger towards believers and belief systems. Have you ever wondered why the thing atheists are good at is attacking religion and believers? It’s simply a coping mechanism.

An over reliance on these defense mechanisms do often lead to emotional immaturity and disjointed thinking that ends up in personality disorders. There is more than enough proof that atheism is a personality disorder.

1) Atheists have among the highest suicide rates in the world. Atheist countries have a suicide rate of 32 percent for every 100,000 people as compared to 4 for every 100,000 people in religious countries.

2) They are the most aggressive bitter and unhappy group in the society and this is evident even here on nairaland as all you need to do is scan individual atheist comments in the religion section and you would see hatred, bitterness, resentment and vile language all roled into one. It is common knowledge that our words are a projection of who we are.

3) Statistics have shown that they are less likely to get married twice as likely to get divorced and highly likely to have no children.

4) Statistics from atheistic regimes show that atheists are among the most intolerant groups in the world. The most popular atheistic nations are the former Soviet Union (Which is now a Christian Nation known as Russia), Vietnam and North Korea. According to John Pasquini, the Soviets destroyed more than 42,000 churches between 1917 and 1969, leaving the country with less than 6,000 churches. North Korea destroyed more than 500 Buddhist temples, while Vietnam destroyed more than 700. About 168 out of 270 suicide bombings that were carried out between 1980 and 2000 were not by Muslims but by Marxist atheists, including the bombing that killed President Ranasinge Premadasa of Sri Lanka in 1993 which was carried out by an atheist terrorist group known as Tamil Tigers (Yes again i said it and it was no typo. The Tamil Tigers are an atheist terrorist group). And it is clearly evident through their ideology as stated by wikipedia and i quote,

"Religion was not a major factor in their philosophy or ideology, the ideology of the Tamil Tigers emerged from Marxist-Leninist thought, and was explicitly secular. Its leadership professed opposition to religion".

As my fellow Christian, after you must have read all of the above, my strong counsel to you goes thus

"The very next time an atheist tries to engage you in an argument. LEAVE THEM ALONE!"

You don’t have to prove the existence of God to attention seeking psychotics who want to assert their intellectual superiority through faulty psychological coping mechanisms. You don’t have to prove that God exists. In fact you cannot be "arm twisted" to as atheists tend to attempt making you do through emotional blackmail. His existence is not debatable!

The moment you learn to ignore their demands they die just like when you starve a person of food, they die. This is the prescription on how to treat the mental disorder known as atheism.

Apply this very effective doses anywhere you see them gather and anytime you read their demands regarding proof for Gods existence from you regardless of the deliberate provocation they pour on you and watch them dry up and die.

God bless and Happy curing

I just had to read this well written OP again.

A low me to add that the utter lie that atheists have spread like an Aids virus is that "FAITH" is based on a belief without conclusive evidence.

The verifiable truth is that just one gospel, of John clearly shows that Christianity is an evidence based faith, unlike atheism.

OK let's see if you are going to make sense today.


Your first mistake is appealing to authority which atheists don't buy into unlike you guys.
I summit.

But they dearly believed and embrace Darwinism without objection. Oya Bro wakanda statement is that

Ok. We all know by now that atheists appeal to pseudo science for relevance. Who want to go live on Mars ?

SALUTE !

MuttleyLaff:
Morality, is about good and bad behaviour.
Conscience, on the other hand, is intuition, the capacity, as it were, without being learned or taught, to instinctively know, right from wrong.

The human race is replete with occasions where the human conscience failed in its instinctive duty then it would seem. The Aztec sincerely believed it was right and proper to sacrifice thousands of humans to their gods. The conscience of slave raiders do not seem to have persuaded them to abolish slavery, and the looters of Nigeria must not have consciences, or instincts, and most definitely not, morals!

MuttleyLaff:
Let me make myself clearer, I implied that conscience is hardwired into the psyche
Morality, if you want to put it into the equation, is a product of conscience

Conscience actually evolved into being. Primitive humans hardly exhibited it, and relied more on consequence than anything else. The reason one ape does not steal your banana or wife is for fear of what you'd do if you caught it. You should see how apes fornicate sneakily when chief ape isn't watching or becomes too old to do anything about it.

MuttleyLaff:
Everyone has this still small voice, inner voice or voice within, that bears witness to what is wrong or right.
The voice can get embroiled and lose out to a cacophony of deafening other voices
and thereafter render whatever it is that was originally being sent out become bad

Or that voice could be saying crap, like, "get a gun, go to a high school, shoot people, they don't deserve to live". Or, " atheist are stupid", as one persons 'still small voice' recently claimed.

budaatum:

It came about afterward that David's conscience bothered him because he had cut off the edge of Saul's robe.
- 1 Samuel 24:5

Read 1 Samuel 24:1-12 for the whole story

I beg to differ, as it isnt as per your remark, the human conscience that failed, but it is, the human, that failed.

Whoever you are, Christian or not, the human conscience, is hardwired in all and when permitted, functions properly

Talking about failures, the good thing about that is, we can, and do learn from failure(s)

budaatum:

Ignorance, is the root and stem of all evil

budaatum:
The conscience of slave raiders do not seem to have persuaded them to abolish slavery,
and the looters of Nigeria must not have consciences, or instincts, and mist definitely not, morals!

According to Martin Luther King Jnr, nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity

Conscience, is the voice of the soul
Not everyone (e.g. like the slave raiders, looters of Nigeria) listens to this still small voice, inner voice or voice within

budaatum:
Conscience actually evolved into being.
Primitive humans hardly exhibited it, and relied more on consequence than anything else.

Then the man and his wife heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the breeze of the day,
and they hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden
- Genesis 3:8

We note conscience in Genesis 3:8 above,
but seems missing in action with Cain still going ahead to murder his brother, Abel

Conscience is not evolved,
whether Christian or not, it is part of every human's make up.
Reiterating, as a matter of fact & truth, it is hardwired in all and when permitted, functions properly

budaatum:
The reason one ape does not steal your banana or wife is for fear of what you'd do if you caught it.
You should see how apes fornicate sneakily when chief ape isn't watching or becomes too old to do anything about it.

Apes, entertaining the thought to steal "your wife"? That's a new one
Which National Geographic or Attenborough episode is that?

budaatum:
You should see how apes fornicate sneakily when chief ape isn't watching or becomes too old to do anything about it.

Seems in your reference to National Geographic slash Attenborough episodes about apes sneakily having behind the alpha male ape's back, you're alluding to humans, being just another ape.

"Your conscience is the measure of the honesty of your selfishness. Listen to it carefully".

I do wish everyone had this small inner voice you mention, but that just isn't the case. Lots of people don't have any such voice and some people's just talks crap.

But since you appear to have placed even my voice amongst the latter, I guess I'm done here.

So as far as you are concerned you speak not just for yourself but also for me when you say my standards do not exist.

I like that word " Dumbess" it suites you.

The atheists evolution from the accidental Big Bang continues. A new level of dumbness has been reached.

You know that I know, that you know the mysterious answer to your own question.

From BUDAATUM's earlier testimony, he proved that atheists failed to know this basic truth.

I will wait in the shadows master VAXX.

rekinomtla:
Beware of atheists, science has shown they have a deep hatred of a being they apparently don't believe exists. Mental illness or not, these people need help.

BUTTERFLYLEO, have you read this post from Rekinomtla ?

Your awesome OP and Rekinomtla's post gave me an idea that can help protect the youth at schools and university from the scourge of Atheism.

Personally, it is because they haven't proselytised to me unlike Christianity and Islam. Actually, none of the other faiths I have come across do that.

So yeah, if they acted like yous lot, I'd tell them to stick it.

If they start proclaiming their stance is the one true one, condemning all others, I would tell them to stick it.

The grouse I have with your faith is not the faith itself, freedom to practice a faith of your choice is a fundamental human right.

Claiming moral superiority and condemning others is my problem especially when looking at it objectively from an outsiders perspective, you are no better than those you seek to condemn.

Ps, neither are atheists simply because they proclaim a lack of faith. Ultimately, what you profess is irelevant, if your actions do not align with your words.

I don't deify it is all since it is rather limited in what it has to say. Or have you not noticed it talks with one's own voice, and can be deceived to say what one wishes to hear?

As I mentioned earlier, people never seem to rely on their morality being prewired, which is why quite a lot of prophets, holy people, ones parents as well as one's community, expend a lot of effort teaching morals. I am certain you would teach your kids morals too, but now I wonder why you'd bother if it is already prewired into their dna.

A warning about how to deal with persons like you is written in the scriptures, it bluntly warns, "DO NOT THROW YOUR PEARLS TO THE SWINE."

Jesus said, "No one comes to me, unless the father God sends them to me."

Are You stalking me dumber and Dumber.
Stay off my mentions. Christians are aware of you. Why do you resort to cowardly reporting and banning when you don't get your idiotic way.

budaatum:
I don't deify it is all since it is rather limited in what it has to say.

Why would anyone deify one's conscience?
Get real man.

budaatum:
Or have you not noticed it talks with one's own voice,
and can be deceived to say what one wishes to hear?

What talks with one's own voice?
What is it that can be deceived to say what one wishes to hear bud?
Has this thing got no name?
Please, tell, what is it called, what's this thing named as or after?
If its called by many or other names, please dont hesistate to tell what they are

budaatum:
As I mentioned earlier, people never seem to rely on their morality being prewired,
which is why quite a lot of prophets, holy people, ones parents as well as one's community, expend a lot of effort teaching morals.
I am certain you would teach your kids morals too,
but now I wonder why you'd bother if it is already prewired into their dna.

"Morality, is about good and bad behaviour.
Conscience, on the other hand, is intuition,
the capacity, as it were, without being learned or taught, to instinctively know, right from wrong"

"Let me make myself clearer,
I implied that conscience is hardwired into the psyche
Morality, if you want to put it into the equation, is a product of conscience"

bud, the two above inverted commas, were pulled out from some of my earlier posts on this thread,
where I was taking the trouble highlighting the distinction between morality and conscience

Teach your children right from wrong, and when they are grown they will still do right, is what Proverbs 22:6 says
If moral were prewired, why does the bible bother advising teaching them to our kids right from when they are young?

Only you can tell or explain, how you came up with "... moral prewired into their DNA"
Misrepresenting me is not good enough for you
so you try sticking your misinterpretation on me and falsely labelling it as mine

rekinomtla:
So you admitting they spread some of those lies.

I'm interested to know which ones they don’t say?



Can’t be. Every single war that happens today uses technology to kill their enemies. Not every war is fought for religious reasons. Hence technology causes more harm than religion.



A belief is the state of mind in which an individual takes something to be the case. You an atheist, so you take it to be the case that no deity exists, hence you have a belief.
You lack the belief I have, that is that a deity exists. So in whatever terms you want to put it, atheism is a belief. If not, define “belief” and explain why atheism is not a belief.



Except the first officially declared atheist nation Albania killed people in the name of atheism. As the following extract from the Wikipedia "state atheism" shows:



Seems people were killed in the name of atheism.


What times, ancient, medieval, early modern period?

Thanks sir, this is a truly relevant submission and deserves an award.

I am certain that BUTTERFLYLEO will mail the original to you.

POST OF THE WEEK GOES TO REKINOMTLA.

MuttleyLaff:
Why would anyone deify one's conscience?

Some people do deify their inner voice muttley. It is called the "Voice of God" by some, which is deification even though its been demoted to "Holy Spirit" in Christianity.

MuttleyLaff:
What talks with one's own voice?

One's conscious self talks to the, usually, externally projected self, is how I'd put it. The projected self is what some call their conscience, inner voice, critical inner voice, auditory hallucinations, God, gods, angels Gabriel, Michael etc, voice within, inner light, Socrates' "daimōnic sign", Voice of God, Holy Spirit, and so on.

Some, like me, just admit that, "I am talking to myself".

When people go to church, muttley, they hear a sermon. That sermon is usually a moral lesson, as in, "this is the proper, Christian, way to behave". I am currently working through a Gospel, and it does seem to be replete with stories that teach morality too.
I assert from the above, and that parents teach their children so they do not become evil, that Conscience is acquired by being taught and learned, even since you claim it is the "capacity to know right from wrong", which I believe, is acquired through learning, and a whole heap of teaching, and forcing, even.

One acquires morals (right and wrong) from being taught, and one's being taught, and learning, is what enables one to acquire the "capacity" to make moral choices, I would have you consider.

One could claim the learning through the years hardwires it in eventually, but one does not begin with any knowledge of right or wrong, or a conscience, hardwired in from birth, is my view.

MuttleyLaff:

”... moral prewired into their DNA"
Misrepresenting me is not good enough for you
so you try sticking your misinterpretation on me and falsely labelling it as mine

Muttley! You are the one who took up position in support of ”... moral prewired into their DNA" , a statement which stands in opposition to mine and which I have elaborated on above. If you disagreed with it, then I wonder why you never took it up with the person who wrote it but chose to engage with my rebuttal of it instead. Might it be the same reason as when you claimed one can't judge them? Or perhaps you just missed it?

I have repeatedly asked a question similar, if not exactly the same as, "If moral were prewired, why does the bible bother advising teaching them to our kids right from when they are young?" So I ask again, why did you not ask that of the person who said it was hardwired?

Go read through the thread before making allegations a la sc, it is unbecoming and morally wrong and I know your inner voice agrees with me. I, after all, have taught you that buda does not lie! And kindly mention me when you find who said their "morals are hardwired into their dna"! I would like to see how you engage with it.

But while you're at it, be reminded that, first, below is you saying what I consider to be "conscience is hardwired in", within the context that you appear to have dived into, but do let me know if my understanding is wrong. And second, note my objections to this view as stated above.

If it is instinctive, some would claim that is hardwired. A position I disagree with, so you know my stance.
