hopefulLandlord: False dichotomy cannot be applied to an atheist. Only if you want to now tell us u r an agnostic? Which we know u r not. Besides there is nothing like half existence. You either exist or u dont. |

4everGod:Haba boss. We both know matters like this border on philosophy and go beyond dictionary definitions. You are commiting the 'false dichotomy fallacy'. |

luvmijeje:You have seen God's awesomeness?? Well, that's the same thing Muslims, Ogun worshippers, Zeus worshippers and adherents of other religions claim... And u can't all be right. So can u explain the awesomeness that adherents of other religion experience and how it is different from yours... |

randomperson: Rejection of a belief automatically gives you a belief in your rejection. Do i need to break it down to you any further? If you reject the belief that Seun Owns Nairaland that means you accept the belief that HE DOES NOT OWN nairaland. This is elementary English. I am surprised you are debating this. Lmao |

Ranchhoddas: So is Philosophy used to define atheism? lmao |

felixomor: I expected the atheists in the religion section to have been going all commando all the while i was away but they are still the same old drab, dreary Nairaland court Jesters only suitable for entertainment. They just may have dropped a couple of notches in value and relevance though. 1 Like 2 Shares |

felixomor: ![]() see intellectual o you know definition of atheism has changed a lot over the years? even you and Randomperson has gone through this in the past where you pulled the Messi Ronaldo analogy I guess its easier to define atheism in the way its easier to attack anyways, my position is that Yahweh/Allah does not exist, if he does he's not the way the bible/koran describes him |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by hopefulLandlord: 8:29pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
felixomor:Tu Quoque |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by Ranchhoddas: 8:33pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
4everGod:Yes. It's a philosophical position, not a grammatical one. Same for religion. Even Christians disagree on the definition of Christianity as found in the dictionary. |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by felixomor: 8:35pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
hopefulLandlord: And yet u r claiming false dichotomy |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by Nobody: 8:39pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
Ranchhoddas: Wrong! I suggest you huddle up with your buddies and thrash that out and also tell yourselves how philosophy comes into play over a simple word like unbelief or rejection of belief. Are those words not the root of atheism? Regarding Christianity, its a lack of maturity that brings varied opinions but not so with atheism. |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by hopefulLandlord: 8:40pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
felixomor: nope you pulled the fallacy on someone and I showed it to you me being atheistic to the Abrahamic god doesn't make me atheistic to every other god got it medic? |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by felixomor: 8:46pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
hopefulLandlord: You dont even understand that the definition of atheism ends with God/gods..... Hian |

luvmijeje: Lol... You believe my ass tastes like sugar? Of course I know u are not disproving it... But I m kind of wondering what you think about it now that I have mentioned. Seriously... My ass tastes like sugar.. What do u think |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by randomperson: 8:50pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
4everGod:So if rejection of belief is a belief, why do dictionaries make that distinction? |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by hopefulLandlord: 8:55pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
felixomor: nope simple definition of atheism those days are too narrow and tunnel shaped the Bible for instance says "there is no God" you and I both know that "God" is actually referring to a specific god otherwise it would have been "There ARE no gods"; Diagoras of Melos was regarded to be at atheist because he rejected the only god people worshipped; this muddle of confusion and failure to define what atheism really is has been a source of philosophical arguments and debates; even Richard Dawkins never claimed there is no god; he said "There's probably no god" because a definitive position on the existence of every single god both past and present without testing each and every one of the said gods is a position of arrogance you're atheistic to some gods and agnostic to many too |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by frank317: 8:57pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
4everGod: Lol... All this long talk for a supposed Creator of the whole world Your God idea is a joke... Just face it, your God does not exist |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by hopefulLandlord: 8:58pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
This thread has descended to the same mediocrity almost all threads fall into we are just here debating schematics which we'll debate till 20 pages and both set of debaters would still hold on to the same opinion after everything and a new thread would bring same debate on schematics again and again |

hopefulLandlord: Smh. You now want to twist urself into deism? ![]() In other words maybe Chineke exists and Oluwa doesnt... See confusion U guys r one funny lot. Honestly |
Re: Atheists Are Hypocrites by CatfishBilly: 9:01pm On Mar 10, 2017 |
You all are just being philosophical, playing with words and stuff. I'm practical. I'm designed that way. Is there a God? theists say yes If there's a God, he listens to prayers of his subjects and grants them? Theists say yes. It's written in the Holy Book. That's the ultimate test for God. Saying God answers prayers on his own time when he is supposed to be all powerful and all knowing is just a cop out. 1 Like 1 Share |
