Why Are Atheists So Concerned About Christianity? by SomebodyLovesMe: 8:57am On Sep 20, 2015
There are hundreds, if not thousands, of religions in the world. I have however noticed that atheists pick on one particular religion. They are so bothered about it that they dedicate time to researching and writing articles about it. They get both passionate and emotional, even aggressive and defensive, where Christian matters are concerned. If I was convinced that something didn't exist, I would be indifferent to it.

My question is - if they are truly convinced that there is no God, what is it that worries them so much about Christianity, while they are indifferent to other religions?

1.They have failed to understand the power of the Holy Spirit who is capable to minister to your mind body and soul
2.they have also failed to understand the power of the devil who is also capable to minister to your mind body and soul.

If you can't decode those two above then you are the most suitable prey to the devil

When they talk about Christianity, they believe they point finger at all God believing religions, in which Christianity is the best example..

Simple.

Where is the devil.

If one can't decode Roman mythology, one is a suitable prey to the Roman imagery devil.

You only believe in what you see. Is that

No one is depriving you from believing in what you want
Perhaps just answer the op 's question and we all learn from your answer.

Nope but those things i don't see but believe must be verifiable.

Beliefs are in some degree categorical depending on the relevance of such claim or story. If you tell me that you have a pet dog in your house, i may tend to believe you because many people own pet dog and also it doesn't matter to me if you lie about it.

But telling you have a pet dragon in your house will invoke some element of doubt in my mind until shown empirical evidence of such.

But the atheists on Nairaland are just wannabe atheists grin Deep down they know dat God exists but they just want to show themselves here. If they are involved in an accident, the first word dat will come out of their mouth is JESUS!!!! grin All of them know dat Jesus is Lord. They are just doing gra-gra here.

Deep down in their hearts, they are bothered about where they will spend Eternity, if not why do you always see dem in the Religious section? There are other sections of Nairaland but no, they always flood Religious section!! grin Leave matter, i know all of dem, i ve analysed dem.

Real atheists are indifferent about Christianity but Nigerian atheists wanto belong!!!! grin In real life, they dare not mention dat they are Atheist. Why are they scared? The Lord Jesus will arrest them one day.

is that what yhu think?? Lemme tell you,d reason it seems atheists talk more abwt christianity is because its one of the most popular religions in the world especially in Nigeria and christians like shoving their religion down everybody's throat,mind you there are ex muslims,buddhists e.t.c... It just depends on the religion u followed before u started thinking.. Besides when you think more about christianity,u would find out that hell concept is just a story to keep y'all in faith,once u die ur dead,so nothing about life after here is worth thinking..

[b]The spiritual realm is largely in control of the physical realm.
Man can never stay void or empty, He has to be occupied by a spirit. Every spirit knows Who the true God is and so really atheists cant help it but to speak against the true God.

Sometimes, due to dishonesty and mischief, they try to slot in other gods and religions to make you feel that there is a balance in their disbelief, but its all lies...

Its no doubt atheists are all out against the christian God, the reason aint far fetched.

Take menehsheh for example, I'll like yall to examine some of the topics on his profile. He's been doing quite a job against Yahweh, his Creator. I challenged some of them recently to balance their hate for God. That may be the reason you'll see 1 or 2 recent threads concerning islam and muslims in his profile. The quote below sums up his profile.

"Atheist's don't exist. If you ask anyone why they are an atheist they will proceed to explain their religion of non belief." -Monksarnn

Some of them move on to spew irritating statements such as "i'm a christian-atheist". There is no such thing. its like saying "i'm a christ-like atheist"

Some more intelligent and honest ones say that "Christianity is the worst of all religions". I say there is a foul spirit at work.

For as long as people continue to give themselves to foul spirits, we will continue to witness people with ignorance, pride, arrogance and gross unintelligence.

"There are those who hate Christianity and call their hatred an all-embracing love for all religions."- G.K. Chesterton

"I was at this time of living, like so many Atheists or Anti-theists, in a whirl of contradictions. I maintained that God did not exist. I was also very angry with God for not existing. I was equally angry with Him for creating a world." C.S. Lewis [/b]

And what is the truth, Sir? Please, explain with verifiable proofs without resorting to because the buybull said so.
Re: Why Are Atheists So Concerned About Christianity? by plaetton: 2:10pm On Sep 20, 2015
First, there is no single day, I mean No single day that a Christian mo.ron or two does not invade my private space to preach to me.
Now, if a Christian feels the right to accost me at every opportunity to preach his stone-age myths, I should also have same right to repudiate, dismantle and mock same stone-age myths. It is Fair game.

Also, As a Nigerian atheist, I cannot bury my face in the sand and ignore the destructive trajectory of the pentecostal filth that saturates and suffocates reason, IQ and the moral landscape of my dear country.

I am very honest when I Say that I view pentecostal christianity as a pestilence, a very toxic waste product, the equivalent of depleted uranium.

Therefore, a pushpack against pentecostal filth is a national service, the very least that a person can do.

Typical of you christians! You guys are free to spit on everybody's face, but when a few retaliate, you call it an assault. SomebodyLovesMe, search this forum and you would find so many threads relating to this and enough replies are there for you to read.

Saturday Evening : My two neighbours are trying to outdo each other, one gang screaming Fire Fire, the other gang increase the praise and worship volume. Me the atheist trying to work on some office assignment or enjoy a simple weekend does not complain.

Sunday : RCCG, DUNAMIS and two other unpopular churches all competing for the loudest noise maker with their speakers in the morning just few houses away from. Me the atheist, keeps quiet no complain. JW bring their wahala later in the day, I patiently listen to their nonsense while my neighbours chase them away.

Monday to Friday: I am woken up by the loud speaker of the muslim calling for prayers, followed by the fanatic christian preacher who goes from prosperity,hell fire to hateful comments about the President. The day I decide to get to work without my car, there's always one christian prosperity preacher in the Bus. Not to forget the office christian fellowship crew.

Now, imagine this repeated for 52 weeks in a year, yet someone say atheists are concerned about christianity? angry

You know it's actually the other way round.
Y'all think you can say anything about God (not that anyone is fighting for God) and expect us to just swallow it, and not say anything because you think we're gullible.

I don't dig for buried things that are irrelevant

Who started it first? I was born an atheist until some theists started messing with my young brain and they succeeded for sometime in making me hate other men, because they don't share my belief. So, how did atheism start the spitting?

The question in my post is in fact a rhetorical one, because I already know the answer.

The point of my article is to highlight the fact that contrary to what they say, atheists sre very interested in Chrisianity because they know that there is a God, that Jesus is real. Therefore, the earlier they stop deceiving themselves, the better.

God bless and save you.

I'm speaking as far as Nairaland:

Y'all can't wait for Christian thread to appear on screen and bang! Bang! You're spitting venom everywhere on the thread with so much hate for something that doesn't exist, and so much pain for something you don't believe in. And most of the time the topic has nothing to do with you people, you aren't even mentioned there! And finally, you succeed in derailing the topic - what could have been a lovely discussion between a us Christians.
