1. My soul will be in the same place that your soul will be if a different religion from the one you follow turns out to be the true religion.
2. People have been trying to prove Gods existence for thousands of years without any success. Success in the next 2 years is very unlikely.

But Mr Seun,.from the way you speak from some of your post, you encourage People to embrace Atheism. Why don't you leave Islam and lead by example

So agnostics don’t ask for evidence of claims? And atheists don’t doubt claims?

Atheist don't "doubt" claims!

You know why?

It's only "evidence" that can be "doubted"

Since theist can't provide evidence, atheist can't doubt!

Atheism is the philosophy of some Athenians to oppose the Reality of God's Idea.

Yes, an agnostic atheist. Very few atheists are gnostic. We understand that absolute certainty isn’t rational.
One absolutely certain gnostic atheist right here, thank you.
We are very very rare indeed.

seun provide a very beautiful view there. ":absolutely certainity isn't rational"

In my opinion his agnostic atheism stands too is very absurd as well. It can be likened to Not even wrong premises . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_even_wrong

Seun might have gotten away with that carelessly thrown away statement if he had tagged on "about gods" at the end. But he certainly can't possibly mean it as widely as he's stated, or allowed to be inferred from what he's written as I'm sure he wouldn't think "absolute certainty" is irrational when crossing a busy road. The day he thinks so is the last day he crosses roads! I therefore disagree with the statement "absolute certainty is irrational" (including where gods are concerned).

As to his "agnostic atheist", I, a sometimes, "Christian Atheist", is not qualified to cast stones.

How many times do I have to correct you people...Atheism is not" the belief that there is no god" in fact it is not a belief at all,rather atheism REJECTS the believe in the existence of god or any form of deity,simply because there is no evidence and most of its claims are absurdly irrational.

Seun:

I don’t hold a belief that God doesn’t exist. I merely reject the claims of God's existence. When a judge finds a defendant not guilty, it doesn’t mean he's innocent. It means the prosecution hasn’t provided enough evidence to prove the defendant's guilt beyond any reasonable doubt. I cannot rule out the existence of a God who doesn’t interfere in our affairs and is hiding from us because he wants us to leave him alone. But I won’t hold a belief in the existence of even that God until someone finds a way to lure him out of hiding and prove his existence to us.
Am just confused at what you wrote. Maybe a simplified explanation would suffice

chemystery:
Those who wrote the bible never "believed" god exists. They "knew" he exist because god revealed himself in one way or the other(according to their claims). Now, do you think god is just to all humankind if he had revealed himself only to selected few while others are left to accept whatever is told to them by fallible men about god by faith even when knowing that with faith, one can even accept an invented god as the true god. Tell me, relying on others revelation to believe in god, will you call that "having faith in god" or "having faith in men"? Men you never had encounter with for that matter.
Bros, please give me the right to copy and use this. its wholesome
