I Wonder If There Is A God by iamDiabolic(m): 12:06am On Jul 01, 2016 |
Am not an atheist, though most people see me as thiest (but not a religious one though) just attending church for the sake of attending,but deep in my mind am an agnostic.but with kinda things I go through might end up being an atheist, because I don't even feel the if any God exist, cause I have not even felt him before, I watch people catch holy ghost and testifying to seeing angels but not even have I had a dream bout one before. We just have to keep worshiping though we shouldn't believe what we can see,but we worship him due to fear of the unknown. Sometimes I even pray that if he exist he should show at least show himself in a dream or through a pastor,but he still never show himself to me,he doesn't have any message for me,damn who TF is he,we should keep worshipping him cause he we were told fairytale about one stupid hell they keep threatening us with. Me and my friends once attended a night vigil,when the pastor was touching all of them head they kept falling (in my mind I was laughing at their funny charade), when it got to my time I didn't fall, I didn't even move back as he was trying to force me to maybe fall, since then i no attend the yeye church. What am trying to drive at is am beginning to doubt the existence of God and if he doesn't show himself to me one of this days, then I might graduate into an atheist. Mind you oh yea preachers and gullible ones I don't need your preaching and bible verses. I have heard enough of that. 36 Likes 6 Shares |

SeverusSnape:boss mi am begining to have a re-think bout the existence of God,when I ask some people how he manifest in my life,they would say its cause of him I breath nd its cause of his mercy am able to exist.well I told him this night to kill me if he is really pissed off with me,since he takes joy in killing nd making people sad.if 2nite he doesn't show himself to me even if its in a dream then he doesn't exist I realise that when u kneel down nd pray u realise that u talking to urself 27 Likes 3 Shares |

iamDiabolic: I started having this same thoughts about three years ago, Since then, I ceased to be a religious/pious person. Many things just doesn't seem right, Look at all the atrocities in the world, the sufferings and deaths and an Almighty God is there folding his arms. I can't even remember the last time I did that thing called prayer. www.nairaland.com/attachments/3910282_agnosticquotes6_jpegd966c601397b8bc447dfe622bfc0f7e8 16 Likes 2 Shares |

SeverusSnape:It's all bullshit bro. In fact, religion bleeps someone's life up. I wonder why a God would let people die anyhow? I read the bullshit story about the ISIS guy that died and came back (I am sure it's staged though), and he converted to Christianity. If it's true then God must be wicked for giving such a terrorist second chance and he still think he has the right to judge who died through this ISIS. I'll rather be an humanist than be one dumb religious fanatic. 21 Likes 3 Shares |

Op, I'm glad about your write up and that's was how 70% atheist started out being atheist. The phase were you at is "questioning phase" and believe you me, it's a point of no return, Why? Intelligence is gathered through questioning then getting answers or no answer would leave you determining if you want to develop your intelligent mind or remain stuck, which I believe you don't, that's why you gonna eventually turn atheist. Welcome in advance. To answer your second question. If there was a God, Predestination can't be altered by men for instance, If God created Adam in the garden of Eden with the knowledge he was gonna eat out of the forbidden tree? Why did he then banished Adam and Eve for offense he already know they would commit? Or if didn't know they gonna commit that sin, that would also mean he's not an all knowing God. Either ways, you could determine that predestination is cut short by God he also made mistake for creating man because he caused his creation and sent them out the garden 23 Likes 4 Shares |

truth is that most Christians are agnostic if you doubt this, just ask them if God is real, they'll always answer in the affirmative now ask them why they know their God is the one true God, why they think the Muslim faith is wrong watch them give you the rope to hang themselves because they'll criticize the Muslim faith the same way Muslims would criticize the Christian faith That's because they judge all other gods LOGICALLY but that same logic is nowhere to be found when its time for Yahweh 15 Likes 2 Shares |

iamDiabolic: Hahn , is this your new account. This guy sounds like you . If God does not answer your prayers , you are obviously living in sin . Some people's prayers don't get answered because they are filled with sin - it is clearly written in your bible . That's why it feels like you are talking to yourself , you are spiritually empty and indeed you are talking to yourself . SeverusSnape: Atheists have the disposition to hate , terrorise , kill for selfish gains . They lost their sanity because they failed to believe in God Here are atheist leaders over the past 100 years . Atheism has led to the death of more than 250 million people !!! -Mao Ze-Dong (China, 1958-61 and 1966-69, Tibet 1949-50) 49-78,000,000 people murdered -Jozef Stalin (USSR 1932-39 only) 15,000,000 people murdered -Pol Pot (Cambodia, 1975-79) 1,700,000 people murdered -Kim II Sung (North Korea 1948-94) 1.6 million people murdered -Tito (Yugoslavia 1945-1987) 570,000 people murdered -Suharto (Communists 1967-66) 500,000 people murdered -Ante Pavelic (Croatia 1941-45) 359,000 people murdered -Ho Chi Min (Vietnam 1953-56) 200,000 people murdered -Vladimir Ilich Lenin (USSR, 1917-20) 30,000 people murdered -Adolf Hitler (Germany 1939-1945) 12,000,000 people murdered The veracity of the above information can be verified by checking through credible sources .

Re: I Wonder If There Is A God by KingEbukasBlog(m): 9:51am On Jul 01, 2016 |
iamDiabolic: Being religious does not make you born again or mean you are living a life of rectitude . Prayer without works is meaningless and whatever you sow you reap . That means that even if you are an atheist and work hard , are sedulous , honest , you'd reap greatly . Being a Christian just makes it easier and better for you and your salvation is a ticket to eternal benisons . Again , not going to church does not mean you don't believe in God . I think you should change your church since your church can't change you. 12 Likes 1 Share |

By now, most of us realize that our perception of reality is heavily influenced by our beliefs, but the full extent of this influence is often underestimated. Each of us has a variety of methods for altering our reality so it conforms to what we believe to be real. Each of us is a reality alteration expert. In part one of this series we talked about how our beliefs provide a structured process through which we evaluate everything in our lives. Now it’s time to take that concept a step further and look at the influence of your beliefs on… |
Re: I Wonder If There Is A God by theEYe21(f): 9:57am On Jul 01, 2016 |
Your Internal Map of Reality From the moment you entered this life, your subconscious mind has been busy collecting and processing information. Combined with your experiences, this information is used to create your beliefs about who you are as a person, and how you fit into the world around you. Because these beliefs are based on your evaluation, and emotional conclusions of your personal experiences, they are accepted by your subconscious as being absolutely true. Your subconscious mind then uses these personal “truths” to construct your personal version of the real world. In other words, your beliefs become the foundation of your internal map of reality. 8 Likes 1 Share |

To the mind, your map is reality! The way in which your map is constructed will determine many aspects of your life. It will be a major determining factor in your success or failure, your happiness or unhappiness, and your satisfaction or dissatisfaction with your entire life experience. Remember when people believed that the world was flat? That belief completely changed the way they viewed and interacted with their world. It didn’t matter that the world was really round. They believed it was flat and that belief had a powerful influence on their version of the real world. It changed the way they interpreted the facts. |
