Are Atheists Qualified To Speak On Christianity? by OLAADEGBU(m): 11:26pm On Dec 02, 2017 |
Are atheists qualified to speak on Christianity? "I will often have atheists tell me that I'm not qualified to speak on topics such as evolution or a certain field in science because I don't have a degree, yet they spend all day ranting and raving about Christianity. Sometimes I wonder if they hide behind their piece of paper because they feel inadequate. The world is a strange place." ~Jason Source: https://www.facebook.com/EvolutionIsALie/ 1 Like 1 Share |

Well they may not be fully qualified but if nothing else, Atheists would be guided by facts and logic rather than sentiments and emotion. 1 Like |

Do you have a theology degree? are you suggesting that a university degree is necessary in order to speak about religion or one's experience of religion. 1 Like |

OLAADEGBU: Rather the fact that they'd explain the Bible for what it is, instead of committing the crime that most Christians for by attaching unnecessary spiritual meanings to simple Bible verses. That thing has created enough confusion in the Church already. |

They are not qualified because they do not know what they will be talking about. |

OLAADEGBU: I didn't ask you about science degree, but thank you for informing us that you don't think a science degree is required to practice science. It's obvious now why we have so many half baked semiqualified professionals in nigeria today. 7 Likes 1 Share |

OLAADEGBU:it take an enormous amount of faith to believe that there is a God, that God is yahweh(how come? Why not allah), and that God wasn't created but has been there from the beginning. It also take ignorance of to believe that we scientist think that the universe came out of nothing. |

Yes, if they have studies the bible and history |

HeyCorleone: How will they explain what they have no clue about? It's just like a layman trying to explain the 2 law of thermodynamics to a Professor of Physics. |

orisa37: And yet they come across as if they are experts in subjects they know little or nothing about. |
Re: Are Atheists Qualified To Speak On Christianity? by OLAADEGBU(m): 4:05pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
PastorAIO: What we have are pseudo scientists believing that something came out of nothing which is scientifically impossible and yet they want us to see them as scientists. |

Martinez19: "For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse" (Romans 1:20). You don't need faith to know that there is God it is pretty obvious, but to know who God is you will need faith to believe He is who He says He is. Martinez19: What is the ultimate cause of the universe? |
Re: Are Atheists Qualified To Speak On Christianity? by Martinez19(m): 4:20pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
OLAADEGBU:nonsense, using Bible to prove Bible. You might as well use spider man comic books to prove spider man exists. Did God tell you he is Jesus's father yahweh? The universe has always been from the very beginning. |
Re: Are Atheists Qualified To Speak On Christianity? by HeyCorleone(m): 4:21pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
OLAADEGBU: That is a very illogical comparison. Rather it's like a man who has sufficiently read everything concerning the Laws of Thermodynamics with vast knowledge in it (but isn't referred to as a Professor for very obvious reasons) but doesn't agree with it explaining to a Prof. |

OLAADEGBU: But you don't need a science qualification to consider yourself a scientist, ba? |
Re: Are Atheists Qualified To Speak On Christianity? by Richirich713: 5:13pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
Martinez19: But he says "literally nothing" not "nearly nothing" when referring to the universe. |
Re: Are Atheists Qualified To Speak On Christianity? by Martinez19(m): 5:46pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
Richirich713:Liar. Show me where Richard Dawkins said "literally nothing". I have not seen any scientist that said the world came out of nothing. Look at you trying to lie and twist things. Mteww. |

Richirich713:olodo . 'Nearly nothing' is not the same as 'literally nothing'. 'Nearly nothing' is also not the same as 'nothing'. It is you who need to look at the picture. |

Martinez19: read further "The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved out of literally nothing, is a fact so staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice." - Richard Dawkins |
Re: Are Atheists Qualified To Speak On Christianity? by Martinez19(m): 6:25pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
Richirich713:My bad, I didn't read further. Nevertheless, it's still held by scientists that the universe has always been in existed. Given that the universe has always existed ie. It wasn't created but has always been existing then you can say it evolve out of nothing since something that has always existed could not have evolved. Hope you get Dawkins concept. To say that the universe was never existing in the beginning and at a particular point in time it stated existing out of nothing is erroneous. Hope you get it. |

Martinez19: Good next time read before u assert that people are unintelligent. Nevertheless, it's still held by scientists that the universe has always been in existed. No its not, science is neutral to the question. Given that the universe has always existed ie. Hold ur horses how do u know of that? It wasn't created but has always been existing then you can say it evolve out of nothing since something that has always existed could not have evolved. Hope you get Dawkins concept. So because the universe always existed u can say it evolved out of literally nothing. why not just "nothing" why add "literally", plus where does Dawkins say anything like that? To say that the universe was never existing in the beginning and at a particular point in time it stated existing out of nothing is erroneous. Hope you get it. That sounds very similar to what Dawkins is saying 2 Likes 1 Share |
Re: Are Atheists Qualified To Speak On Christianity? by Martinez19(m): 7:19pm On Dec 03, 2017 |
Richirich713:I know the universe has always has always existed because matter can neither be created nor destroyed. 'literally nothing' is the same as 'nothing' except one wants to use 'nothing' in another context that is obviously not English. Something that has always existed from the very beginning evolved out of nothing since it's existence has always been a given. That is different from nothing existing at first then coming of nothing to exist. Hope you get. |

Is it possible for something to become nothing? For example, if an electron and a positron collide what will happen to the electron? What if that process were reversed? |

OLAADEGBU:I'm a opening my mouth. I gonna talk about god. The Christian god specific. I'm sure Grace qualifies me. Her skirt done it. Nice try shutting up atheists op. They tried shutting up Christ too, but he resurrected on the third day or so. As for me, I shall not die but live everlastingly, despite all efforts. |
