As oga hard mirror explained in the pastor to atheist thread, the common tactics used by xtians when faced with non believers is to condescend to them., to make them feel like they no nothing about life.

A very common psychological tactic

CeoMYN:

The real thing is that my environment, my town is insane.
Not only socially.
I don't really know how to put them, I just got contrasting views with people. They are still in the old ways.
My head isn't clear right now.
The main thing I stand for is doing the right thing but the orientation is bad in this part of the country.
Let me just give you examples of those contrasting views.
1. Cultists were killing people freely in my town. Everyone was like the government should grant them amnesty, but I wanted the army to crush them so that those boys will stop carrying their shoulders high.
2. I believe in the military way of doing the right thing. Making sure it's done even by force but here they don't care if you are behaving bad until it affects them.
3. My town is filled with people who have been bought by the lies of the our stupid reps, but I wish they could gain sense.

All these I'm afraid to tell because I fear for my life. It's point and kill over here.

4. I'm wish we can work together and make our town a better place but everyone is selfish.

Atheism just made it worse, you know why?
It's because of my parents they are strict and very religious of lately, my elder bro and sis too. They are going to change their views about me.

I don't respond to feelings , I really don't know what it means to reach conclusions based on feelings as an INTP - this is my personality type .

I reach conclusions based on logic and rational observation .

Saying "deep down" means based on feelings which apparently I can't relate to .

So through logic and rational observation , God exists .

Listen kid it would be too easy to ask you to unburden your heart or to ask you to share what your views are that people do not share with you ....but that would not be the solution. Just listening to you without fixing the deeper problem would not make the surface problem go away. So i will not ask you to tell me what the real issues are here but would rather opt to make it a bit more personal....yeah thats how nice i can be.

Can we take this out of this place? I have an identity i never hide as i see no reason for that so do not pretend. I would understand if you refused to take this talk out of this place but hey what have you got to loose?

This thread has got 68 views already and of these 68 people who have viewed i seem to be the only one genuinely offering transparent friendship and help.

Wanna give it a shot?

CeoMYN:

No one knows about me being an Atheist, the stuff is that am 24/7 7/7 30/7 alone. I hardly interact with anybody.
I don't see atheism as the cause because I have always been lonely. Atheism added it's part recently but that's not the main cause. The main cause is that no one shares the same views with me social wise and others.

CeoMYN:

Let it just be here

damogul:



Ok so you are most likely in Rivers State. Like i said, what tangible help could be given to you via a faceless online forum? If indeed you are in Rivers State then its easy to help lift this burden off you. Buts its up to you though. I definitely wouldnt want to force myself or my helping hand on you.

jonbellion:
there is no burden
The young man has come to grips with reality
It's just that he's taking it so hard

honourhim:


You embraced a new belief system and rather than be happy you are angry with yourself? You need to check yourself and your new found belief.
you said you ve always been lonely. Does it mean you dont go to school? You just sit idly in the house 24/7? And if you do go to school do you still remain lonely even while in school? You be ogbanje or what?
Atheism is not the cause of your loneliness but it is the cause of your anger.
You have a serious problem that is beyond what you think. i just hope this doesnt consume you.

CeoMYN:

I knew where you were going to

felixomor:


You dont know, sorry.
You only thought u knew.

Its the exuberance.

damogul:


Then there is nothing i can do. So Sorry!

Look at it this way, I can come on here and rant and cry and curse but when done and i shut down my computer, i am back to being alone and depressed ...has my problem gone away?

Even after i pour my heart out to another would it change the scenario and events i am complaining about or alter the spiritual state of my family? When i log out i would be back to being alone...

People use their tongue to count their teeth. I advice you do same.

damogul:


Let him speak for himself if you wouldnt mind. People heal faster when they are allowed to express themselves and you are not helping. Besides i know you said this because you think i just might get him to a place of doing a u turn on his decision but that is not my desire. Choices are never forced or they would be slavery. He has control of his....

CeoMYN:

I knew

KingEbukasBlog:


As a teen , a type of response is expected from you . You just showed it . And of course the flagrant display of immaturity is clear enough

KingEbukasBlog:


Older atheists in their 40s like we know who are always quick to denigrate the views of younger religious people .

Just yesterday , the same hardmirror insulted me because I'm a young Christian , and hopefullandlord was there too .

Till now hardmirror still hasn't countered my argument .

So who is obviously deceiving who

felixomor:


U knew, yet u find urself in "religious" section again after all the yarp of that day?
U dont even know yourself.
Obviously.

jonbellion:
Aaaaah those teenage years
Lol
I started questioning my beliefs at 17
I told my parents I was an athiest
They were shocked anyway but that didn't make then withdraw from me or anything
They always say they pray for me and all that religpud stuff
I'm in my mid twenties now
You should open up to your parents
You don't have to be lonely shoo
my religious friends know my views towards religion
Same with my parents(I think they didn't take it so bad cuz I was doing well in school)
Hope your grades are cool
Even if you don't want to tell your parents yet I'm sure you have close friends you can share with
You don't have to be lonely
Atheism or Agnostism shouldn't make you lonely

hopefulLandlord:


I fully agree with this bro

The Flying Spaghetti Monster will always remain hidden to doubters and people who don't draw nearer to him

FSM be praised

jonbellion:
okay then
Over to you ceoMYN

You sound like a lonely guy
And you're still young
Naah this isn't right
If you weren't so lonely you won't be angry at yourself
Try and be more outspoken
Make friends
Get a hobby
Have sex
Stuff that'll ease your mind you know

CeoMYN:
Words can't tell how angry I am right now for haven believed in God , I'm mad at myself for believing a lie for almost two decades till this year.
Right now I want a sane environment! I'm fvcking looking for the slightest chance to tell my parents who Clinton is. I'm a teen and that's going to be hard because they have become more religious recently.
I'm getting mad! No one to share my feelings with! I'm hiding it!
I don't want to die with depression and loneliness! I need a sane place!
To all those evangelists out there TFU!

LiberaDeus:
All you religious people, can't you people treat someone with respect and care even if he doesn't share your views

He wants someone to talk to and all the Christ warriors here are talking down on him in a condescending way, calling him a teen, getting annoyed that he doesn't bow to your god.

I want to commend damogul for at least offering friendship and advice even though I know it will end in him offering Christ to him. But at least give a listening ear to someone who called for help.

@OP, you can talk to any of the atheists here, If you don't feel ok sharing your views here then you can send pm to any body.
