See now, IN THE END NO GOOD ATHEIST CAME TO CORRECT THEIR RECRUITER IN HIS POST SINCE YESTERDAY TILL 2:48AM TODAY! YET THEY SAY THEY ARE FAIR PEOPLE LordReed: Unlike your beliefs there is no eternal consequence to your persistence in continuing in your beliefs for the atheist so he has no obligation to save you except may be to save you from destroying others with your beliefs. You on the other hand believe wholeheartedly that we shall end up in hell, a place of torment for eternity but you sit in your house have your 3 square meals, watch TV, browse the Internet become bored and go to bed, sparing no thought for those you claim are going to suffer. Shouldn't you be spending every minute of everyday attempting to save people from this hell? Are you not more wicked according to your own criteria? If you truly believed in hell you'd be crying and wailing everyday begging people to be saved but you don't do that because you are very wicked (according to you). by Dtruthspeaker: 3:12am On Oct 21 Can an Atheist come and speak The Truth against this well known Satanist? Shall any one of you, so called atheis do this good thing and Truly go against this Liar to correct him that he Lies? (Modify) (Quote) (Report) (Share) AND NOT ONE CAME! |

triplechoice:Evil that's spelt out is KILLING people not sex drive my friend, you talk of pedophiles as if it's not happening in all human society. Even a religion legalized infant marriage so can you go and stop them from marrying underage children? We are talking about people killing people! ![]() 70% of people today were molested one time or another during their adolescence yet they're still alive today and doing fine in the society can you compare them to dead people? ![]() So instead of mixing up too many things all at a time why not concentrate on the real evil, the cause of killing in the human society? ![]() |

MaxInDHouse: You and I have not talked about any kind of evil before now Our conversation is centered on you boasting that your members, unlike the rest of us (atheist / agnostics) are a special breed of people who will never manisfest any evil thoughts raging in their heads. That is it. why trying to move it away from that? So you don't see it as evil an elder in your organization molesting a minor under his care simply because the same people whom you regard as lost are also doing the same thing? Honestly, this is disapointing coming from an elderly person like you who may even have a daughter under his care. It would have been better you didn't reply at all. You're embarrassing your organization.. Next time reread what you typed before clicking the submit button. Whether you agree or not. JW members are not special or have absolute control over their thoughts. It is indoctrination that makes you think so 1 Like |

triplechoice: Do you think someone who molested a child under his/her care is the same as one who just want you dead? ![]() I'm not saying molestation of minors is good but it is nothing compared to killing people for not being a certain race or political party. So if you're mixing things together know now that pedophiles live in the human society and they hide while doing it which means their conscience is still active somehow but killers strongly believe you don't worth living! ![]() |
Re: Why I Believe Atheists Are Not Good People by triplechoice(m): 10:06am On Oct 23, 2021 |
MaxInDHouse: You're the one mixing things up. You're in denial and only interested in defending your organization no matter what. An adult molesting a child repeatedly is evil. Don't get it twisted and downplay it because it affects some elders in your organization. Well, atleast contrary to your initial position you have accepted without realizing it that your members can also manifest the evil thoughts in their heads. Maybe you don't even know the meaning of the word evil. Go and learn the meaning so you can argue better Child molestation can be worst than killing someone. Some victims have been known to commit suicide and others finding it difficult to live a normal life. https://www.iicsa.org.uk/reports-recommendations/publications/inquiry/interim/nature-effects-child-sexual-abuse/effects-child-sexual-abuse 1 Like |

[quote author=triplechoice post=106920551] @ op I am afraid you're generalising. All atheist or non religious don't behave the same way. But I understand where you're coming from . It is obviously based on what you have experienced and observed here. But the truth of the matter is that most are behaving that way because they are living their lives based on borrowed behavior. A fake life. That's how I like to describe it. The foreign atheists whose behavior most of them are copying are from societies where nearly every single member is enlightened enough to know what is right from what is wrong. So it is expected that some, atheist especially, over there would mock you when you behave in a way they consider stupid or irrational .They expect you to know better than to believe in what they consider nonsense or fairy tales. But on this side, there's no enough reason for anyone who is fortunate to be properly educated and better exposed to go about looking for less enlightened members of his society to insult and abuse simply because these other people insist at a particular point in their lives that they are more comfortable in believing in something rather than in nothing. Well, I already mentioned that it is borrowed behavior. If not, what on earth would make anyone who claims to be a former Christian or Muslim turn back to make mockery of those that still believes forgetting that not too long ago he or she was equally a "slowpoke" or religious nut job. It is an aberration . It's like a former prostitute who is now rehabilitated going back to the hotel she once worked to insult and mock others who are yet to have the opportunity to escape that life. It is really unfair and makes no sense whatsoever. The proper attitude of a former believer who is really honest about helping others see what he now considers the "light" should be that of concern and understanding and not to take delight in mocking others at every given opportunity even when it is not called for. If the person who trolls you online grew up as an atheist without having participated in any religious group before, then you should understand the reason for his behavior and not take offence. The person has not had your experience. So it is only natural that the individual would want to understand why you choose to believe in a God .He simply cannot get it no matter how you try to explain People will always act based on what they know and have experienced. They can't behave otherwise. There are certain things in life that can only be completely understood by a direct experience of it. Nothing else would do. But when the troll has had that religious experience and now pretends not to, then it is self deception. Don't waste your time .You're dealing with a fake person. Move away .The person already knows the answer to the question he or she is asking you about what you believe. There's no sincerity and you would be stupid to engage such a person. The person is looking for the opportunity to make you look stupid for what you choose to believe at this time So please don't regard every atheist or non religious as the same. Not every atheist on ths section behave as you have described .We all can't be the same. Everyone has their own method However, you on your part should also learn to respect what others choose to believe or not to believe. That's the only way we can all make for a harmonious relationship amongs the different groups that exist here.. Final word. Please don't regard me as a representative of any group. All I have said is from me alone. Others can choose to see things differently and they have the right to see things their own way. I started having doubts about Christianity as little boy by the time I was up to fifteen I stop going to church |

triplechoice: You're deceiving yourself! ![]() There are people who committed suicide just because their boyfriend or girlfriend gilted them so does that equates jilting with murder? ![]() Guy in this life we live with so much troubles everyday, the thief that comes to rob you is a million times better off than the assassin whose only intention is to take your life. You may continue to argue this but when you're faced with such a situation you'll pray that you are robbed, raped and molested a million times than for your life to be taken! So stop deceiving yourself! ![]() |
Re: Why I Believe Atheists Are Not Good People by triplechoice(m): 1:47pm On Oct 23, 2021 |
MaxInDHouse: You're the one deceiving yourself. You're just battling to crawl out from the hole which you dug and fell into. You claim your group members cannot commit any kind of evil whatsoever. Meaning they can do know wrong . That was how we started. Why running away now that I brought up the issue of child molestation within your organization? Is that not a manifestation of evil within your sect? It's high time you accepted that no organization has perfect members. It is not possible and there's no individual that can do no wrong. If you knew this , then the shameless attempt to whitewash your organization in order to maintain its reputation would not be necessary. Every right thinking person knows that nothing is perfect in this world Jw members are not saints that can do no wrong. Stop the self deceit. I hope when one of your daughters is caught in the same thing, you counsel her it is not evil since she wasn't killed. Abi ? 1 Like |

[quote author=macAB post=106988507][/quote] @macAB Make sure you already cleared those doubts before abandoning the religion of your birth It is very important you do that, if not when you leave just like that those doubts would continue to come up but this time in disguise and your mind then become a battle ground of conflicting thoughts which you may not be able to handle alone. It is not easy thing to abandon the religion you were born into. Some persons can assume they are free from it but not being aware that at the subconscious level they still strongly tied it. And this can create many problems that may be difficult to manage except through professional help. . You could find yourself struggling with the feeling from time to time that you're two persons in one. That's a split personality syndrome which is a form of mental illness and those close to you can sense all is not well with you. The reason why this can happen is that there still exist some deeply embedded beliefs in your subconscious mind that's still running at the background . Those who don't know what is happening at this time, would run back to the religion they have abandoned or sadly end it in suicide believing they are losing their minds.. I have friends who have gone back to the same religion they abandoned and condemned as not good. This happens all the time So my friend be yourself . Don't try to imitate anyone. Know exactly what you're doing before making the decision to quit And in case you don't know it's not easy living your life as a non religious person in this part of the world you will be hounded on all sides by people around you and this can impact on your mental health. You need people around you to succeed but when you try to separate yourself prematurely , then it can be become difficult for you. My advise is you just play along until you can stand alone without depending on anyone. |

Hismasterpiece:Have you seen the effort Christians and Muslims put in when you try to get to reason how absurd the Bible is? They defy all truth and logic to justify the evils and misconceptions in the Bible. Seriously check my post in the religion section and behold the length a fellow human being is going to defend Christianity . As for Muslims, those ones are the worst, they even threaten to take your life. What I do is to try to enlighten as the need arises. That way I do my own bit in getting people to stop putting themselves under the pressure of a white man's fairy tale. |

LordReed: Lol.. you atheists try very hard to stand out. You don't want to appear like others. You say atheism is a 'lack of belief' but that is not the historical definition of atheism. Wikipedia defines atheism as, 'Atheism, in the broadest sense, is an absence of belief in the existence of deities' But it could also be restated as, ' Atheism, in the broadest sense, is a BELIEF in the nonexistence of deities' Absence of belief is the same as belief. |
