Well, on a lighter mood, we can thank atheists for thrilling us with their omni-knowest skills and abilities . Below summarizes (as far as i can remember)the A-Z of atheists on nairaland especially in the religion section.


1. Let God and religion fill your heart to an extent that you just cant stop talking about him.
Yeah that's right, some of these young atheist fellaz might not sleep well if they do not talk about God. They look for the slightest opportunity to tell you how wicked, irrational, evil and negative the Creator is. But bear in mind that there is not right or wrong for the atheist - no evil, no good. So how can atheists come to this conclusion ... Beats me too. Tell me again how atheism is not confusion.




2. Claim to lack a belief in God. But constantly launch attacks on christianity to convince themselves that they really lack a belief. Why will a person attack something he does not believe?
Okay let us even break down the word "lack". "Lack" could be a noun or a verb. Atheists use the word as a verb.
The cambridge english dictionary defines the word as: /læk/
to not have any or enough of something, esp. something necessary, needed or wanted:
From this definition, we can see that God is needed. So what could this mean for the atheists?
Could it mean that they lack other necessary or needed items of life?
Cos if you ask me, lack can fuel anger and thus hatred .




3. Scavenge the religion section for harmless christian topics such as a believer thanking God for sparing his life. and dehumanize him.
I mean, if you open a thread with a simple title like "God I thank You for the gift of life", some atheist will be like "So how about those that are dying?" "So your God is picky and selfish".
But notice one thing. If you give an atheist a gift, he may thank you. He most certainly wont tell you that you are picky and selfish or ask about those who need the gift more. Atheists don't really know what to say, do they




4. Google search "bad stuffs in the bible" and post some verses taken out of context here, and instantly they become a bible scholar.
This one is very common, they can take a verse like: I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD.-Psalm 118:17
And then tell you that the writer was high and silly, and that people die in reality. Seriously , have atheists ever heard of the word "context". I don't think so.




5. Claim to be a former christian but have little to zero understanding of the very basics of christianity.
You can only wonder what type of christian someone is or was when he asks such questions like: "Why did Jesus die and rise again, why didn't he stay dead?", 'Why did Jesus weep when Lazarus died?", "Why do believers suffer?".
Well, at least we now know those who were force-fed christianity by their parents or whoever.




6. Realize that Christ lived a perfect life and that christians look up to Christ, and so discard the teachings of Christ and focus more on the historical record of Israelites under the dispensation of the law (Sin and Death).
This point is a bit connected to point 5, cos one needs to understand the laws and dispensations.
-The law of Sin and death and,
-The new law of the Spirit of life in Jesus (grace)
What does Romans 8:2 tell us: For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made us free from the law of sin and death.




7. Deceptively ask christians for answers as if they really seek answers, while in reality they want to make a mockery of whatever answers they give.
They can ask questions like "why is there so much suffering in the world"?, and then you give an answer like "God did not promise us a rosy world but promised to walk through life with us if we allow Him and also, the existence of evil is corroborates the truth of scriptures"...
You may need to brace yourself after giving such a reply . A typical atheist may say "Shut up you fool, your God is wicked, selfish, vindictive and ......"



8. Preach to people that God does not exist, but say repeatedly that God is evil for allowing evil to exist.
Point no. 7 corroborates this. Pain may be too much for some people to handle. Nairaland is how some atheists deal with their pain.
(Ronald Inglehart (2010) confirms that religious people are usually happier than nonreligious people.

"Faith and Freedom: Traditional and Modern Ways to Happiness". In Ed Diener, John F. Helliwell, Daniel Kahneman. International Differences in Well-Being. Oxford University Press. pp. 378–385. ISBN 978-0-19-973273-9




9. Be historically illiterate about how religion especially christianity helped to usher in democracy in several parts of our world but dwell on the bad side of religion.
At the same time be historically illiterate about how the atheist countries that have ever existed have repressed democracy.




10. Mock christianity especially as dishonestly as possible.




11. Claim to be humanist but ignore the hundreds of lives lost daily to Islamic terror and focus on rubbishing the good news of Christ.
Should we talk about the actions of islam in recent times on France, Germany, Iran, Syria, Iraq, Northern Nigeria e.t.c.
Naah, atheists are less concerned with people who are easily radicalized on a daily basis to be murderers, they focus more on someone thanking God for his life.
Phew', At least we now know who really cares about humans. If christianity was as totalitarian as islam or atheist states, atheists voices wont be heard in the first place.




12. Appear to be open-minded to deceive the feeble-minded when in reality all your questions or arguments are put forth with a pre-conception of anti-religion.
An atheist could ask: "[i]Did Jesus really rise from the dead". I could almost be sure that this question is an attempt to mock the christian faith no matter how open-minded the op seems to be.
From my little stay on Nairaland, I can safely conclude that atheists here do not need any answers. They only want atheism to be true. at all cost




13. Reapeatedly advocate for the eradication of religion from the face of the earth but be historically illiterate that this same idea caused the deaths of over 260 million lives in the past 100 years alone.




14. Demonize the raising up of children in the way of the Lord, but turn a blind eye to their increasing access to nudity, alcoholism, indecency, hard drugs, thuggery e.t.c.




15. Claim to want to save the world and free humanity from the virus of religion but leave their family and friends to wallow in this so called "delusion".
It is pitiable that these atheists find solace only on nairaland. At home, they are as meek and timid as a cat and would prefer not to show their homies this newly struck gold. I put it to atheists that they are wicked and heartless to let their homies continue in their "delusions"




16. Say that religion is the cause of Nigeria's every problem but forget to mention other great religious countries and how religion especially christianity helped to usher in civilization. Atheists are quick to tell you that "Just look at Nigeria, our problem is religion"...
They like to capitalize on the current state of Nigeria .
Lol, we can laugh at them, because we know that China has a christian population of more than 1,349,585,838, U.S.A (316, 668,567), Nigeria (174,507,539), Russia (142,500,482), Japan (127,253,075). e.t.c
It doesn't really matter to the atheist. Religion (especially christianity) is the source of Nigeria's problems




17. Constantly tell us that we are products of meaninglessness and purposelessness but desperately want people to embrace such hopelessness.
Well, you can leave us the feck alone...What reality has continued to show is that every single item on earth serves a purpose. Don't try to dumb us down.




18. Open meaningless threads and threads based on mockery and mock christians who do not take them seriously.
This happens here all the time.




19. Join atheism because of unfortunate happenings in their lives and desperately want to impose their woes on others.
You lost a dear person and i'm sorry about your loss, I've lost too. But don't force force the effects it had on you on others. Good and bad happens all the time, ain't no need to impress your emotions on people's lives.




20. Deliberately create a non-existent gulf between christianity and science as if atheism had the sort of impact religion has had on science.
Well, thank God for some eye-opening threads that have shown us how christians propelled science and how atheists are desperately trying to hijack science. Atheists could almost tell you that "atheism=science".




21. Downplay the relief and outreach provided by religion to the less privileged. You may wanna go to camps of internally displaced persons, orphanages, prisons, hospital beds, poverty stricken parts of Africa. Here, you will find religious people from parts of the world lending help to the helpless.




22. Dishonestly downplay whatever evidence, fact or explanation given by a christian as lies so far it negates the stand of atheism.
Trust out atheist brothers and sisters on this




23. Dishonestly disregard scientific work done which proves that:

religion is a part of the human nature

And other research studies...

Even after all these, our atheist brothers will still demonize religion without conducting any research to reach such conclusion.




24. Dishonestly claim that Jesus Christ is a myth like zeus, horus, and co. even in the face of proof.
Well, we know it will be irrational for you to dismiss the obvious if Jesus ever existed. . So its better to reject outrightly the fact that He ever existed.




25. Claim to be the all-rational, all-logical, all-knowing, all-intellectual, all-reasonable, all-wetin again.


Abeg make i drop my pen.


Atheists I hail ooo.

Oya. Atheists (professionals in the strawman fallacy)

Carry your straws dey com, com change argument.
strawmen and women

According to the atheists, everything we know of was created.




Well, Except the universe

Ouch!!
Let me hurt 'em with some more facts and proof.

In a recent study, the Centre de prévention contre les dérives sectaires liées à l'islam (CPDSI) found that 80% of French jihadists were raised in atheist familes. Does atheism leave a dangerous void that makes humans susceptible to embracing harmful ideologies?



Blaise Pascal rightfully wrote: “There is a God shaped vacuum in the heart of every person which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God, the Creator.”

Can you provide a link to the study? Both links you pasted are bad/empty.

Lets hear from the horses mouth.

Did you guys commit sin today? Do you sin because you are unafraid of your fake Jew creator or because you can recite words to remove the sin from your ledger? I really want to know.

How can you communicate with a creator, verify his creator status, and still be brave enough to commit DAILY crimes while being observed closely by the creator's camera? Either you are telling lies or you are a psychopath who doesn't fear authority, even if the authority figure happens to be the creator of time, space, and matter.

Is that what you're telling me, that you sin daily because you are too weak to keep yourselves away from a blazing fire?

Atheism and morality

You are right my friend, the links are bad and empty. My bad.
But hey, cheer up . Here is the same report from BBC: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-30119868

This lady describes my problem with atheism

Yeah, i know, they could be annoying.

What report? You claimed that a study conducted by an organization called CPDSI found a connection between young atheists and radical Islam.

The article didn't mention a CPDSI study neither does it support the claim that atheists are converting to radical Islam.

Where is the link to the study? Where did you read about the study?
Remember your god is supposed to be watching you on camera. He supposedly rewards ALL lies with eternal roasting.

You speak to the creator of the universe who has shown you proof that he really did create the universe. This creator tells you that he has cameras everywhere.

But you still commit crimes with the creator watching.?

Why? Do you just like the smell of your own corpse roasting?

This thread would burn those atheists

Nawa oo..

And since it is against atheism, its obviously a lie.
Ladies and gentle-men, BBC is now a liar according to weah96

Abi make I screen grab the lie.

Hypocrite. Atheists are foolish but you spend more time talking about atheists than your God. How many hours of your day do you spend thinking about atheism?

TomHagen:

Well, I talk about atheism once in a while.

And I do talk about my God a lot. But that will not be on this section of the forum anymore .
