hmmm, this one is a tough one cause me cant marry an atheist. I'm even wondering how she could ve been blind to knowing you an atheist. You should ve told her truth earlier in the rship..
I think you should try and make her understand and if she doesnt you can call it quits... its always good to be with someone who you share same belief with or can accept it

Ps There is God.

I dont judge atheists cause I believe he/she must ve a reason for being one.


I cant marry an atheist cause I believe in God and its important to me I marry someone who doesnt just believe in the existence of God but also God fearing because thats the foundation I want my family to be built on and also we get to encourage each other in our faith esp during travails.


I'm sorry about the loss of your brother and I know you feel cause I too ve felt and asked same questions BUT I remembered so many other things ve asked God for that he did even the ones I didnt ask and I knew that God is Mystery, faithful and his ways are not the ways of man. Maybe it was your brother's appointed time and according to christian doctrine each man has it own appointed time and would surely die.. Sometimes we dont need to ask questions, we just need to ve FAITH.


Even when Jesus was on earth there we still hungry and homeless people. To We God has given, we are expected to give and help those who are less privledged just like the Story of Lazarus and the Rich man from the bible. Its God's own way to create a balance amongst his creation IMO.

Christianity is surrounded by mysteries which the human mind cannot comprehend. I laugh when people become atheist just to get their questions answered funny enough they get confused the more.
Nice one!!!!

I am bringing up this issue here because I don't trust the environment I live and the people I co-habit with. They would open up the bible for me than tell me some truth I need to hear or advise me to go for brain evaluation. I am well ok.

I've been an atheist for some years now, but due to beliefs of people around, I make it a closed affair. Though I raised questions which theists always fail to convincingly answer, I still agree with them that there is god.

I live in this denial of who I am just to satisfy my loved ones and make them happy. They see atheist as a mad man.

All these years, this is what I battle inside of me, but what choice do I have than just to play along? I don't wanna lose loved ones 'cause of my belief.

I muster some courage and decided to reveal my real self to my girlfriend who is also religious. She's told me her love for me is unconditional and I tried to believe her.

She went berserk when I told her am an atheist... She wouldn't just believe it. Since then, she's been looking at me like I'm under some spell.

I'm losing her and I don't ever wanna lose her. If for anything, not because I don't believe there is God who looks by while toddlers die.



Be strong and let her move-on. If she trully loves you unconditionally as stated, She should respect your beliefs. And if you re a real in-depth atheist, There a million ways to make her reason and even fall into your own world. Dont alter your beliefs for love sake. #DoNot

You need to act fast....

She probably must have inform her pastor about it and you know what that mean.

Most Nigeria ladies are too immature for sure heavy statements.

Just tell her you were joking; that you wanted to see the extent of her love for you, that's if you still intend to keep the relationship.

Thanks. But I just wanted to be free. I've been a prisoner of my own conscience deceiving her all along. She deserves to know the truth.

But why can't you date an atheist?
Why do you think dating theist is a better choice?
Where is your God when I lost my brother after fervent prayers?
What is your God doing to help the homeless and hungry children on the streets?
.
God has always been where he is. I suggest u watch this movie "God's not dead".

Bro if you truly love her then you will go distance for her. Y not make your research about this GOD, who he is, y he let's some things happen (like d toddler case you mentioned), and y ppl still believe in him despite all these. You might just find some answers and be at peace with everyone and your self

You are NOT an atheist.
You are not anything, in fact, if you live your life simply to satisfy others.

It's very simple. Really!

Stay with her and convert; you won't do that. The other option is let her go - for your good and hers - and go date an atheist lady.

I don't know if it's hard to find atheist ladies in Nigeria but I think it's not; mind you, some are deists and agnostics.

I salute you for your courage and boldness to open up as most guys will hid such information till after wedding . But would you blame her? probably she has been boasting only to receive the shock of her life. You self change your beliefs

Lolz. My brother, I got you here. This is kinda weird and expected because I know the importance Nigerians attach to religion even though it has no positive reflection in their ways. Even worse is her parents, which Nigerian parents would wana have an atheist for an inlaw? It's hard! On a more serious note, I'm not a pessimist but permit me to confess, I saw it coming. We'll talk it out personaly later.

Kudos to you, you responded well!
There is a purpose for everything that happens, somebody dieing does not take away the Existence of God, it's fir a purpose.
Homeless and the needy are for a purpose, for we oppurtuned to have enough to show charity.
Even having enemies at times is for a purpose, abi in whose presence would God anoint my head with oil and cup running over?

I think the problem with u being an atheist is d way the Christian doctrine proclaim God, by telling u God does good only and bad is from Satan etc. As a Muslim, all good and bad is from God and he tells us in the Quran that he will bri g forth trials to us especially to the ppl he loves most and that we shud just be patient and accept anything that comes our way as destiny. He also said he intentionally made some ppl rich and some poor and either is both a test of faith to anyone.

I bliv wen u change ur mindset about how God is perceived, u'll then know God truly exists.

Meanwhile, I'm nt trying to preach to u, I'm only telling I d realities of life and how God is.

Perhaps atheist isn't the best world to use, but I don't believe in that God Christians and Muslims worship.

You would have to walk a mile in my shoe to understand why I said I live in denial to satisfy and make my loved ones happy. You will definitely need to bro.

Why would anyone want to deceive innocent people and pretend to have same beliefs when they don't. That is extremely deceitful.

Be who you are and if she can't except you for who you are let her go and find someone who shares similar beliefs as you.

I personally have nothing against atheist but I could never date one

. some of us have lost our entire family to difficult tragedy, struggle to earn living. some us are not even married even at 60 years (both male and female). some of us don't have feelings to show love towards the opposite sex e. t c yet we still believe in God.

I feel your pain @OP, there are a lot of hypocrites in Nigeria. If your girlfriend leaves you on the basis that you do not share the same belief with her, maybe she wasn't meant for you anyway. Take your time to develop yourself and your career, a successful man has no problems getting women.

I'm an Atheist as well, and a militant one at that. I'm happy that I live in a society where females do not judge you by your religious beliefs.

I don't debate about one who calls himself almighty and can't even say "Hi"

You will be alright.

My wife is religious and I don't do any religion. She goes to church and I don't.

There's no need to deceive any body. Just be you.
I am surrounded by very religious people yet, I don't bulge. I don't even care. My belief is my belief.

They all know my stand and I am a very happy person. I have been with my wife for 8 years.

Be good and be your self. Cheers
