Now to the post.

It's not true that atheists are more intelligent, intelligence doesn't stem from disbeliefs or beliefs, nice research though, but we've got intelligent people from all sides and their intelligence isn't as a result of what they believe.. cool

agreed!!!

Has the term changed? The singularity no longer exploded 13.8 billion years ago? Please tell me, what did the singularity do? What was contained in the singularity? It's funny seeing you claim that the formation of stars and planets are fully understood. Goes to show how knowledgeable you are. Let me mercifully give you a hint: read up the "meter size barrier".

this might help:

I mean look all around us . The only people who have and are making meaningful and significant contributions to man's pursuit of knowledge and study of nature have been people who acknowledge the existence of God .

The only things these lowbrows know is to spend 24 hours every day telling us how smart they are .

5. Only just 3 percent of members of MENSA (High IQ society) are atheists while the rest believe in God (90 percent ) and are agnostics (7 percent ) .
what's the percentage of atheists in the world?

And people like akintom are included in that "smart" group. Just look at the post on this thread in which he quoted me and see if you can make any sense of it.

From all sides ? The thing is history have revealed that people who believe in God have made and are making way more significant contributions to our understanding of nature than those who don't .

If you doubt me , we scanned through the medevial age(1000 years ) and discovered just three atheists who made meaningful contributions to the development of mankind

What if Sean goes about with an electronic device on his right ear through which he receives update on the truth about everything that happens from someone who monitors and knows everything, and so always says the truth, such that all the statements he(Sean) has made in the past has been tested and proven to be true? Would Dean be right to say "you don't know too"?
Hahaha grin please we are being realistic here and not unto some dumb speculations, there's no way Sean would have an electronic device that tells him all truths.. Your reply confirms the saying:

I know it's so painful seeing me cherrypick the bias in your allegory.

The onus is on you to prove how Christians bend facts to support theories.

you believe in literal Adam and eve under guidance if the (same) holy spirit

both of you are ready to use whatever evidence to supports your claim while criticising those that don't

* consciously and subconsciously, this is the mental platform, from which 98% of Christians on NL, discuss the concept of religious beliefs from.

* when the Roman Catholic Church, who originally concocted the Christian religion, is increasingly admitting to the intelligent and intellectual honesty, of Bible, been largely metaphorical.

*this position of Roman Catholic Church and other liberal Christian groups, didn't come on basis of "godly humility", but the compulsion of scientific evidence that incontrovertible.

* now, if most Christians on this NL, remain glued to the idea, that the bible is literarily true, how can one possibly engage such folks in rational, logical and intelligent discussion?

It's simple, you claim intelligence depends on your beliefs because only few atheists have been able to make grand discoveries... I can as well claim intelligence depends on your race because only few blacks have been able to make grand discoveries..

kinda hard taking that thread serious when he listed Hitler as atheist
but regardless of his personal beliefs, Hitler managed to get the German people to go along with his plans. A nation where the two most prominent religions were Christian sects (Lutherans and Catholics), fed for centuries upon anti-Semitic hatred by their churches. The problem wasn't just that Hitler was a whack-job, it's that the rest of the country was crazy enough to follow him; and they were that crazy because of religion, not in spite of it. the Catholic church celebrated Hitlers birthday every year till his death and then started distancing themselves from him, how convenient

If Hitler managed to abuse Christianity so easily for his own ends, that's still an indictment against Christianity. His followers were Christian, his soldiers were Christian, the Nazis running the concentration camps were Christian. Being Christian, believing in God and Jesus, didn't stop those pious men from killingh millions of innocents. No, indeed it can be argued that their religious beliefs are exactly what enabled them to do so. Religion is a terrible catalyst and enforcer of in-group-out-group thinking. It was so easy for them to label the Jews and Gypsies as 'others', and thus to distance themselves from their own horrible actions. That is one of the things that scares me the most about religion.

Remember, that the 9-11 hijackers were most assuredly the most pious believers on those planes.

Doctiralien should be very grateful to his goons cuz he's been spouting nonsense on this thread till his cohorts came and gave him a reason to ignore my posts, I'm pretty sure he's learnt a lot from this thread and would not make the idiotic claim he made on this thread, claims like

"Big bang is an explosion"

"Big Bang is an atheistic claim"

A smattering of history will let you know that atheists were preponderant in the 20th century with the hegemony of the communists in countries like Soviet Union , North Korea , China and so many other countries ( up to 27 countries or so I think ) . And of course , the population of atheists unsurprisingly plummeted after most of the communist governments fell . Humans are predisposed to believe in God - you can never change that . Your change will only come through coercion and sanguinary campaigns against people who believe in God - history buttresses this .

Atheism = more suicide, more serial killing, more nihilism, more mass murdering.

If a thousand people of a certain religion are implicated in mass murder, that is not an indictment AGAINST THAT RELIGION.
This is soo funny, Lol hic ha hic ha haaaaaa hic. More stomach aching laughter, then roll on the ground laughter.

Sorry guys ! I cant help laughing at the low level logic used there.
Given another 500 years they will start using higher reason..........

I agree with Felixomor : Atheism = more suicide, more serial killing, more nihilism, more mass murdering.
