I remember some psychology lessons I attended sometime ago. I've forgotten the name of the phenomenon, but it describes what i think you're trying to do.
You saying what will happen cos you probably dont want it to happen.

Muafrika2:
Same think

Muafrika2:
Done...


For history of A theism, go to the page I've so graciously supplied. Those are the people your brothers (and sisters) quote in your arguments about religion, reason, the opium of the masses, blah blah, remember?

SirWere:
Oh he knows. He just wants a big argument where he answers a reply with 3 part flowing literature one part truth. Then when he's done; he can rejoice with his fellow theists over "winning another battle for the lord" . It's quite common now on NL.

Strawman:
*facepalm* Still off-topic. But look at this:


Problems that people attribute to Christianity are caused by authorities who used the religion as a pretext for their evil deeds, people who misinterpreted Christianity, and Christians who did not follow principles of Christianity in causing those problems. Yes they are corrupt Christians who did all those, but their actions were not assented by Christianity itself. Those problems were caused by [bad] Christians, not Christianity.

I really hope you get my point now.

And btw, this does not still tell us what atheists achieved in the middle ages.

Strawman:
Lol don't even go there it won't help your argument at all. Cos FYI, theism has many achievements:

Christianity, for example improved hospitals in the Middle Ages, churches were the first orphanages, most of the world's greatest universities were started for Christian purposes, the capitalist system used round the world today can be linked to Christian sources, Christianity was used to civilise many barbarian and primitive ancient cultures, the Church is the largest single provider of healthcare and education in the world etc etc etc etc. guy there are many!

Do you know that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights were based on Christian principles?

Jurgen Habermas (an atheist) stated that, "the individual morality of conscience, human rights and democracy, is the direct legacy of the Judaic ethic of justice and the Christian ethic of love."

If you want to narrow it down to community level; there was even a thread here on NL some weeks ago showing a Christian group helping poor and homeless people.

These are achievements of Christianity. Many Christians who have achieved something were motivated by Christianity, so you can link their achievements to Christianity itself. This is not the case for atheists and their own achievements. You can't say Bill Gates created Microsoft because of atheism, so his achievement is not atheism's achievement (if he's even an atheist sef, I heard he's agnostic, but sha that was just an example).

I'm sure Buddhism has accomplished a lot in different parts of Asia throughout the course of history. Other religions must've benefited their area of practice in one way or another.

ETC.

Theism has many achievements. I won't even go into detail because this my post sef is off topic.

KingEbukasBlog is not even asking for what atheism has achieved (that is a harder question), he's asking for what atheists have achieved. So you can simply discuss that with him.

Muafrika2:
The Cult was intended as a civic religion—inspired by the works of Rousseau, Quatremère de Quincy, and Jacques-Louis David, it presented "an explicit religion of man."

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_of_Reason

KingEbukasBlog:
He was an atheist , a rabid atheist in fact . His friends and myrmidons were also atheists

SirWere:
Respect sir, respect! It would be folly for me to say that "Christianity is evil" because of the acts of a Pope just as wrong as it will be to say "Christianity is good" because they abolished slavery.

The proper thing then would have been;
Some Christians are good while others are not.

Same for atheism and atheists.

I dunno if you catch my drift

KingEbukasBlog:
Still made more contributions with facts in this section in just six months than atheists since this forum began . He has changed the paradigm and everyone appreciates his efforts .

naijadeyhia:
Perhaps their grand patron can deliver them.

Meanwhile let me mention hopefullandlord same way he mentioned me earlier....

Bros you say you are super intelligent oya save your people. Answer the OP any way you choose but just give an answer related to the OP. If you say the OP is dishonest then make is honest by answering the question as simple as possible.

Ranchhoddas I know why I will not ask you anything.

hopefulLandlord:
These topics reeks of ignorance
Question: how many atheists do you know of in the medieval age?
Mention them

KingEbukasBlog:
At strawman , then we should create a thread for that see lots of inputs . We can now compare . What do you guys think ? It would still acheive the same goal - exposing the false claims and lies atheists tell

Muafrika2:
Clearly invented. At first, it was called "the religion of reason".

Strawman:
KingEbukasBlog the topic should be changed to "What Prominent Achievements Were Made By Atheism During The Medieval Age?"

Reason:

People can have individual achievements, as long as it wasn't motivated by atheism, whoever they list here would not matter.

What an atheist has achieved is somehow different from what atheism has achieved, what a Christian has achieved is somehow different from what Christianity has achieved...etc

I dunno if you catch my drift.

Muafrika2:
Atheism was invented during the french revolution. Before that, theywere part of the church. And you wonder why the church went through the dark ages...

SenatePresdo:
That means that time is only experienced here on earth by humans because the earth rotates, thus causes time.

What about black-holes, does time exist there?
And can you explain how the art of prophecy works, or don't you think it is part of science?

SenatePresdo:
God didn't, He's a timeless Being. Humans makes use of time due to the nature of their dimension.

KingEbukaNaija:
That's atheism for you - falsehood , deceit , lies , rage and bitterness . They employ dirty tricks just to inveigle people to question their knowledge of God - this is just one of them .

I think that anonymous guy that complained about his parents' behavior towards his new found belief has been one of them for a really long time And that post was part of their plan . There was no proof to support the story and it was quickly push to front page

Hmmm ! Thank God for Strawman

SenatePresdo:
That is a good question.
But first and foremost, I will like you to know that humans are quite arrogant with their certain assertions about the whole of existence (The Universe) just to suit there understanding of it.

We don't age because of time, we age because we are living things. If you think we age because of time, why hasn't River Niger or maybe zuma rock aged? Doesn't it pass through time (that is if it exists).
If time is the reason why we age,
They should also age of cause.
so we don't age because of time, but we age because we are living things.

Like I said earlier, humans invented time out of their arrogance or naivete. The universe comes multi-verse does not recognize time, humans do. IMO
