atheism is not a religion, which means atheist are not suppose to pertake in a religious debate which includes: Muslims, christians, Buddhist etc. Atheism is based on science and logic only, which means they should be at the science section. This is the definition of religion from Wikipedia and atheist dont fall in side the definition. Religion is an organized collection of beliefs, cultural systems, and world views that relate humanity to the supernatural, and to spirituality.[note 1] Many religions have narratives, symbols, and sacred histories that are intended to explain the meaning of life and/or to explain the origin of life or the Universe. From their beliefs about the cosmos and human nature, people derive morality, ethics, religious laws or a preferred lifestyle. According to some estimates, there are roughly 4,200 religions in the world.[1] Many religions may have organized behaviors, clergy, a definition of what constitutes adherence or membership, holy places, and scriptures. The practice of a religion may also include rituals, sermons, commemoration or veneration of a deity, gods or goddesses, sacrifices, festivals, feasts, trance, initiations, funerary services, matrimonial services, meditation, prayer, music, art, dance, public service or other aspects of human culture. Religions may also contain mythology.[2] The word religion is sometimes used interchangeably with faith, belief system or sometimes set of duties;[3] however, in the words of Émile Durkheim, religion differs from private belief in that it is "something eminently social".[4] A global 2012 poll reports that 59% of the world's population is religious, and 36% are not religious, including 13% who are atheists, with a 9 percent decrease in religious belief from 2005.[5] On average, women are more religious than men.[6] Some people follow multiple religions or multiple religious principles at the same time, regardless of whether or not the religious principles they follow traditionally allow for syncretism there are some ancient people who are not really civilized like the Mayans and many more! One way or the other this people believe there is some sort of god which they worship and do ritual to. How the world came into existence? atheist believe in bigbang, what starts the big bang? They believe it is some sort of electrons or molecules or maybe matter, what brings that matter into existence? I dont know what they will say hear. But common sense should let them know there is a creator. |

striktlymi: Is Christianity a religion??As a definition to the world Christianity is a religion, but that's not what the thread is about. I just came to the same realization as the OP, this guys say they don't believe in God but say the know and can explain the bible more than believers and argue it aggressively. Now how does that add up. |

God doesn't exist but they dont know about somany creatures that exist in the deep see today. They can't even get pass the moon |

noblefada:Its simple really. They were religious, they are not anymore. They want to show the religious people how ridiculous their beliefs are. While they don't believe god exists, they know people that believe he does so they want to educate them on their ignorance. Is it still hard for you to understand now? |

How about if you put an ape in your room and watch it transform to human being while you seat back and eat your pop corn. It is the atheist who are ignorant. All the things the bible says about the earth being round was TRUE before man discovered it. So who is smarter? |
Re: Atheist Are Suppose To Be In Science Section Not Religious by AlfaSeltzer(m): 12:25pm On Sep 17, 2013 |
Itsfacts: Are you absolutely 100% sure the earth is round or do you just believe what those atheists say? |
Re: Atheist Are Suppose To Be In Science Section Not Religious by Itsfacts: 12:28pm On Sep 17, 2013 |
Alfa Seltzer: WTH, science use to think that the earth is flat. Bible says from time that the earth is round. |

Is it still hard for you to understand now?Ok then don't use or quote the bible, because logically u can't understand it. I not against u asking question or trying to point out errors but don't try to prove you know the Bible more than the believers. Imagine an atheist starting a thread on " I don't think this is what your bible say", who made u an authority on that issue? as far as the book is concern it is foolishness to u. You say we're ignorant and u want to educate us, ok no problem use u science, logic or what else u feel ok, but don't use the Bible. 1 Like |

An atheist does not live in isolation. In Nigeria especially, the words and actions of religious people affect an atheist almost every moment. Atheists operate here on the simple premise that if you come out into the public domain or forum to propose or assert a notion, you must be ready to defend such with rational reasoning , or keep your ideas confined to your head, where it probably belongs. No atheist will intrude into the safe confines of your head to repudiate your thoughts and imaginations I guarantee it. |

plaetton: An atheist does not live in isolation. Example pls |
Re: Atheist Are Suppose To Be In Science Section Not Religious by plaetton: 4:32pm On Sep 17, 2013 |
Itsfacts: ![]() ![]() Example of what? Let put it another way. If I come out on a public forum to assert that the Moon is inhabited by a colony of leprechauns, then I stand to be mocked and challenged by everyone. Same thing goes if I propose, like I have done before, that planets are round like meatballs, therefore the Flying Spaghetti Monster(FSM) Created the Universe. Likewise, if you come on same public forum to assert your theories of 6-day creations, talking snakes, talking donkeys, unicorns, h.o.r.ny holy spirits, three-in-one gods, etc, You also stand to be challenged and mocked by those who do not share your delusions. |

noblefada:bros, in order to show you how ridiculous your beliefs are, we only need to start from your holy book. The bible alone is enough to show you the improbabilities of your god. Lol, how can you say we can't understand the bible logically? Is it written in swahili? What is there that is too difficult for a literate mind to understand? This is precisely how the catholic church tried to keep the bible away from the masses during the dark ages in order to continue their exploitation over them. Abeg talk sense jo. We understand the bible as well as any man, only that we are not blinded by religious bias. . . |
