dalaman: lmao None have requested for help from you? Do you see where we differ? I actually did not wait for help to be requested from me before i offered help. Do you see the difference? |

Dalaman look at this None have requested for help from you? Do you see where we differ? I actually did not wait for help to be requested from me before i offered help. Do you see the difference? The Bible said of Christ, " [b]How Jesus Christ of Nazareth went about doing good and healing those who were oppressed of the devil" True believers seek out opportunities to do good and do not wait to be asked. As long as you see the opportunity you cease it as that is what it means by doing good. Doing good is not by compulsion or request alone its out of a necessity which is seen |

damogul: Some of the help could be so mundane . They might be asking for an address or looking for a location something that I will expect anybody to render such kind of help when asked. If it is something big I believe you would have stated it. |

dalaman: So much Hypocrisy and deceit in one comment. You already know the kind of HELP you meant which was why you asked me for the names of those i have helped on NL who were atheists. I am not compelled to give you specifics am i? All you asked for were names. Ok how many theists have you offered directions or addresses to here on NL? |

damogul: i know christians read the bible |
Re: Religion: An Illusion That Works Well by dalaman: 12:44pm On Dec 16, 2016 |
damogul: Agreed. Don't make this as some form of competition because both believers and unbelievers alike in any form.of God or religion all offer to help one another both within and outside the group. |
Re: Religion: An Illusion That Works Well by damogul: 12:46pm On Dec 16, 2016 |
dalaman: Goalpost shifted! The question is about YOU! How many theists have you offered help to on NL? In fact how many atheists have you offered to on NL? If i a theist could offer help to several atheists on NL then surely you must have at least 1 atheist here on NL you have offered help to as a fellow atheist 1 Like 1 Share |

Dalaman is there none? If there is none whom you being an atheist has offered help to be they theists or atheists then you have no right to criticize my worldview and my beliefs because obviously it is much better than yours as it offers something to friends and non friends alike and is not discriminatory. You cannot honestly see yourself as better than i am when you have not offered help to anyone here and can only say "nobody has asked you" when i never waited to be asked before i offered help even to those who did not share my beliefs. You hold no moral ground in this regard. Thank you. It was nice talking with you. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

damogul: I have offered non be cause non has ever asked me for help it's that simple. I have never discussed anything personal with anybody here on NL that will require me giving any assistance. That you have helped some here doesn't make you more generous than I am because my family and friends are all theist and I have helped them a lot. They too have also helped me a lot as well. So it's not a competition. |
Re: Religion: An Illusion That Works Well by dalaman: 1:13pm On Dec 16, 2016 |
damogul: You are the one competing against yourself. I never claimed I am more generous than you are. |

Martinez19: Faith is having absolute trust in God . There are many things you believe without seeing You have plans for the future right ? But have you seen the future ? With your logic , people should not have plans because they have not seen the future . I'm sure you talk like you have seen the future - "I'm going to do this by 2" , "I'll do this by 3" , "I'm coming to pick you by four ". "I'll marry Angela at 28 and we will have two kids " . "Don't worry dear , when I get back from the office , I'll take you to dinner" You are saying all these with certainty but with no proof you are actually going to see the next minute . Because you can die for whatever reason the next minute . There are so many people who have trusted God and prayed to him in truth and in spirit and He hath no failed them . I have heard so many testimonies of people acting it out before the miracle comes . And it so inspiring . So many nowadays don't want to worship God in truth and in spirit and they actually expect something from Him and when it fails , they start acting all up and spewing nonsense . Some even claim to be pastors But now they are atheists . So much falsehood and lies . Guy , if you have not experienced what others have experienced just keep quiet and stop pontificating . Brian Tracy said that he failed so many times in business because he was dilatory in asking other people the secret of their success in business. And then he did and things turned around for him . Ask people who have witnessed the power of God . "What did you do it" ? "What kind of life do you live "? How do you pray ? How do you fellowship with God ? "What's your relationship with God like ?" Not all these soporific jeremiads against people's beliefs and faith in God . Because you did something and it did not work for you therefore everybody is lying and deceiving themselves . Mtcheew Learn to ask questions , learn from people's experiences , ask for guidance , ask for help . There's damogul , there's winner01 , felixomor , richirich713 , scholar8200 , anas09 , image123 , OLAADEGBU , Muafrika2( I learnt so so much from her ) , MrPresident1 , sukkot - you can ask them questions - that's how you grow in life . 3 Likes 2 Shares |

hopefulLandlord:don't forget you are also angry "in fact I didn't know in was angry.Christians say that since I am an atheist therefore I am always angry so I must be. If they say I'm angry I must be angry whether I am angry or not. In fact if the christians say I am angry I don't even have the right to not be angry because they say I am angry" HopedulLandlord 1 Like |

Richirich713: I strongly believe these guys know the answers to the questions they raise but they keep hoping that people who don't have or know answers to those questions or statements will now get skeptical about their beliefs . I mean its 2016 and someone had the impetus to bring that up as a logical argument While the rebuttal has been there for ages ? Its embarrassing honestly . 1 Like |

KingEbukasBlog: I have heard that nonsense too many times i cannot even count. Its like they all go to the same school and get dropped on their head while there and rationality sucked out. How can anyone be asking such questions yet claim intelligence. How can one be asking such questions yet claim to be rational and honest with himself and not even to others. Nna men these guys deserve an award of some sort...something to encourage their rubbish. 1 Like 1 Share |
