Why Do Athiest Discriminate by Pidggin(f): 8:49pm On Oct 28, 2016
You can't be an athiest if you are simple minded or mentally handicapped, you cannot be an athiest if you are not exposed to Western education

Whenever you engage an athiest in a discussion their first line of attack is your mental capacity. Is it right to discriminate against anyone based on your perceived function of an organ in his body?

They pride themselves with being intelligent by Western educational standards perhaps because without western civilization athiesm is incomplete

The irony of everything is their belief system which is still based on theories, yet they require facts from others even from those whose belief systems are based on faith.

Charles Darwin, who is their god never knew about DNA yet they still believe in most of his failed THEORIES

Many athiests have gone to their Graves still believing in someone else's theories while demanding facts from others, when will these people really understand that they are actually the simple minded ones not those who they discriminate against

In christiandom we accept all, the mentally challenged, the lame, the deaf, the blind, the captives and everyone who needs love and comfort. We will never discriminate against you even in a case of brain malfunctioning or any other unfortunate circumstance you may be suffering

Love for humanity is our mission, come as you are and you will never be rejected by true believers. If you haven't received Christ in your life, you can do so today. Accept Jesus who never discriminate and you will never regret it

False. I'm an atheist and I never discriminate. Even if the person's beliefs differ or the person happens to be gay or whatever. As long as you're not hurting others, I'm cool with you.

I also don't make uninformed generalizations.

In as much as i will agree with you that Atheists sees themselves as highly intelligent beings, i will also disagree with you that being an Atheist doesnt necessarily means one must exposed to western education.

One thing is certain, no one will ever become an Atheist without previously believes in a particular religion. If you critically look deep into the nature and everything it comprises, you will realise that virtually everything can be done by humans without the intervention of any supernatural forces or being.

I'm a christain, but i can quote it anywhere that religion is not but a mere man made tradition or creation. To make the matter worse, the story of creation of mankind doesnt not make sense a single bit.

Religions gives peace and hope, this is enough reason for everyone to have faith in a particular God.

I'm an atheist and I don't discriminate. Unlike some people here that would insult me or shun me for being atheist I wouldn't do the same to any religious person. I don't think being atheist means I'm intelligent, there are lots of religious intelligent people. However the level of belief in superstition and devil's and demons everyone responsible for every distaster and failure and all the other nonsense common in this country is what makes me question how some people reason....

You can't be an athiest if you are simple minded or mentally handicapped, you cannot be an athiest if you are not exposed to Western education

There is no single truth to this statement, some people have no understanding of science whatsoever and are still atheists.

Whenever you engage an athiest in a discussion their first line of attack is your mental capacity. Is it right to discriminate against anyone based on your perceived function of an organ in his body?

Anyone who attacks personally in a debate is not civilized both atheist and theist. A debate should be civilized and be respectful and not a immature exchange of insults.

They pride themselves with being intelligent by Western educational standards perhaps because without western civilization athiesm is incomplete

That is not necessarily the case, most atheists that are grounded in science know what they are talking about and so would traditionally sound intelligent, science is not a western thing, Science is a univeral thing.


The irony of everything is their belief system which is still based on theories, yet they require facts from others even from those whose belief systems are based on faith.

Atheism is not a belief system, it is the rejection of belief in supernatural beings, calling it a belief system is just being intellectually dishonest, and atheism is not the same thing as Science, atheism is not based on theories rather its based on pure logic and intuition, nothingelse.

Charles Darwin, who is their god never knew about DNA yet they still believe in most of his failed THEORIES

Many athiests have gone to their Graves still believing in someone else's theories while demanding facts from others, when will these people really understand that they are actually the simple minded ones not those who they discriminate against

This is another wrong statement, Charles Darwin is not a god of any kind, he was the profounder of the infamous Natural selection theory, and thats it. Like i said before, Science is not atheism, many theists accepts Evolution because it is Science and calling Charles Darwin a god of atheists is another show of either ignorance or intellectual dishonesty

I think if you are respectful, intellectually sound and honest, well grounded in science and generally accomodative to the atheist argument but respectful disagree with his or her position and give your reasons why you do so with logic and sound arguments, then you would have a more pleasant debate or encounter.

Atheism is based on pure logic ? What logic ? Atheism is not based on logic or intuition . Atheism is simply the belief that there are no gods , not supernatural beings . Atheism simply means no gods . Atheism can accept the existence of spirits , witches , demons etc and beliefs like reincarnation , karma etc .

nawa oo. You said atheists discriminate and then you now called Charles Darwin their God?? Charles Darwin isn't the founder of atheism you know. he was a thiest like you then after studying evolution ended up being agnostic. Epicurus a Greek philosopher lived long before Darwin and was an atheist. Besides there are christians that call athiest "demon possessed" and say they are being "used by the devil" I believe you've posted something like that before. Isn't that discrimination too?

This Is Simply Wrong!

Maybe cause you guys are just plain ignorant For example like this post?


They pride themselves with being intelligent by Western educational standards perhaps because without western civilization athiesm is incomplete

Not All atheist Are intelligent the ones who are or sound so is because they read good books and science articles Etc which version of daily manner are you on?


The irony of everything is their belief system which is still based on theories, yet they require facts from others even from those whose belief systems are based on faith.


Atheism is not a Belief system the Theist Ignorance only comes When the Atheist has Educated them on something and they keep on making that mistake on and on. Ill say it One last time Atheism is the Lack of belief in any God Not just Yours but Any other gods out there named or Unnamed!

Charles Darwin, who is their god never knew about DNA yet they still believe in most of his failed THEORIES


Look at another Ignorance displayed with pride?

Many athiests have gone to their Graves still believing in someone else's theories while demanding facts from others, when will these people really understand that they are actually the simple minded ones not those who they discriminate against


Which theory If i may ask? Like the Theory Of Gravity or Pythagoras theorem? Well it do work for me

In christiandom we accept all, the mentally challenged, the lame, the deaf, the blind, the captives and everyone who needs love and comfort. We will never discriminate against you even in a case of brain malfunctioning or any other unfortunate circumstance you may be suffering

Atheist Also don't discriminate on those people if you have an example of An atheist who do Name them! what do you think about the Orlando gay club shooting? by a Christians?


Love for humanity is our mission, come as you are and you will never be rejected by true believers. If you haven't received Christ in your life, you can do so today. Accept Jesus who never discriminate and you will never regret it
The irony of Christianity is that they profess love but has 34000 dominations that hate each other how is that working out for you guys [size=30pt] HYPOCRITES [/size]

In Afghanistan, Iran, Maldives, Mauritania, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Sudan atheists can face the death penalty on the grounds of their beliefs. There are laws outlawing apostasy and religious conversion in Bahrain, Comoros, Maldives, Mauritania, Saudi Arabia, and Sudan.
Compulsory religious registration in conjunction with a list of religions permitted by government, such as in Indonesia and Jordan, is also discriminatory. In Iran, citizens have to declare their faith in one of the four officially recognized religions in order to be able to claim a number of legal rights. In Burma, Djibouti, and Maldives, certain forms of political participation (such as holding office or voting) depend upon citizens officially registering themselves as having certain religious affiliations.

A more common form of discrimination occurs against secular people when they manifest their conscience by acting against the dictates of the religion of their family, community or country. In Greece and Russia, the Orthodox Church is fiercely protected from criticism and is given pride of place on state occasions, while in Britain bishops of the Church of England have automatic seats in the upper house of parliament. In at least seven U.S. states, constitutional provisions are in place that bar atheists from public office and one state, Arkansas, has a law that bars an atheist from testifying as a witness at a trial.

Social networks like Facebook, Twitter and other online communities are increasingly targeted. People from Bangladesh, Bahrain, Egypt, Indonesia, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, and Turkey have been prosecuted for “blasphemy” as a result of comments made on social networks.

See why i said christians and hypocrisy goes together,there are almost 15 threads on nairaland about the miss anambra lesbian video just check any of those threads and see the hypocrites talking about discrimination, imagine a candidate for president here in nigeria being an atheist and then some hypocrites will stay on their bed and type nonsense speaking about discrimination.

What do these people really know about discrimination it's not like you're less than 5% of the nigerian population,its not like atheist occupy all the seat in the senate,its not like there are 36 atheist governors.

Do we teach atheism in schools or crs/irs, do we have anything like atheism in the national anthem and pledge,was it atheist that put a 14yrs sentence for gays and lesbians.

Even agnostics believe there is no God. The only difference is that they don't believe one can know this with certainty.

Anthropology
Archeology
Paleantology

They all include theories which are unproven. Archeology and linguistics actually substantiates the existence of many things in the Bible.
