A supernatural world will be one that lacks a constant personality, its irrational.

We don't believe in god(s) because there is no evidence to support his/her/their existence. In your first post, you claimed that there was such evidence and that it was everywhere. We're still waiting for you to point some of it out so we can examine it and either debunk it or turn from our wicked ways and become devout christians/muslims/Orunmila-worshippers.

Your move.

lol.. Exactly why I kept quiet after my first post.

Bring forth your evidence OP... undecided
Re: Atheists Pls I Need Ur Help by Nobody: 1:53am On Sep 07, 2012
Op, you need to realise that the atheists will never believe whatever you say to convince them of God's existence and will unfailingly come up with an argument because they have blocked their minds to whatever proof there is that God exists and they look down on religions as illogical and meant for the deluded.
No offense atheists, love you all.
Re: Atheists Pls I Need Ur Help by wiegraf: 1:54am On Sep 07, 2012
I'll break it down for you, though I really should get back to work....

You are the one claiming there is a god, not us. You've mentioned evidence, where is it?

If I told you that my dog can jump over the moon you'd ask me for proof. If I demanded you accept it on faith you'd think I was being rude, no? If you just accepted it you'd be an idi.ot, and we are not idiots.

Then again, people think lightning will strike their enemies after visiting some really broke dude in a hut (it only works in villages though), or talking snakes, etc so meh

There is no such thing as supernatural, just inconsistent explanations.

I have
I was in a boarding school see. After visiting day, I was enjoying some garri (complete with kulin kuly) but there were some bros who insisted on parasiting. I was hungry so I tried to get them away. But suddenly, one screamed "Winch!", and we all ran.... I didn't want to, but everyone was doing it so I thought what the heck. I didn't see the winchie, but the garri disappeared and the bros were all smirking, I've never figured out why.
That's my only experience with the supernatural.

lol....the garri disappeared? Why is it that claims of miracles always lack details? Did the whole bowl disappear or only the garri? Did the garri disappear with only the water left in the bowl?

Sorry, we can not believe your miraculous story for some reasons;

1) Garri is bad for eyesight, you might not have seen things clearly
2) Fear is also a recipe for hallucination and mistakes,therefore bad memory
3) Garri drinkers are never reliable when they are dispossessed of their garri
4) Boarding school is a ground for fairytales and lies eg bush baby.


lol....

1) There is no consistent definition of God. Which God? Jesus Christ or Allah? Is god a male or female? Does god create evil or not? Does god rest or not? Is god a force or a spirit? Is god a trinity or not?

2) There is no evidence for god. Only mysteries used as evidence for god. People use miracles and the origin of the universe. A mystery can not be proof of anything.
Re: Atheists Pls I Need Ur Help by Nobody: 5:42am On Sep 07, 2012
@ Op,ever heard of russell's teapot? U'r d one laying claim to d existence of a god n several evidences of his existence too.pls,kindly give us a few of these.if u ask me,i think there's more evidence dat god doesnt exist.even some theists will agree with me.

@wie,

So your problem is not that God doesn't reveal Himself, it is that He uses mysteries to do so?
Anyway for your info, God reveals Himself in different ways to different people. An atheist like yourself became a believer not from witnessing mysteries but from reading books and broadening his knowledge of the origin of the earth and human beings. Besides these 'mysteries' serve to let you know that a spiritual realm exists and that everything isn't all about the logical and physical.

Wow, what foolish thinking!

A mystery is not proof of anything. You dont say that "we dont know how Mr X died, therefore God killed him".

The pagan would say that the god of rain/water reveals himself through mysterious floods. That is the same nonsense you make when you claim that god reveals himself through mysteries.

Another thing is that a mystery by itself is unkown and not understandable. For you to claim that god did it is to acknowledge that you understand the mystery. Paradox. It is like christians claiming that the world was created in 6 days; are they geologists?
Re: Atheists Pls I Need Ur Help by lilcutie8916(m): 8:23am On Sep 07, 2012
Ok where do i start . If for example u see a statue that is like a hundred years old first thing that come to ur mind is some dude carved this right. When archeologists find a triangular shaped rock with some chipings on it they say man made it as a spear head. Ok look at the brains u use in debunking ur selves and u tell me that it evolved by chance and it wasn't designed.
Our solar system arranged in perfect harmony and that also happened by chance from one big explosion. If a sculpture cant happen by chance but had to be made by someone then why cant ur perfect anatomy be made by a supreme designer.

Your analogy does not apply to living things, the furthest we can go with the origin of living things is that they evolved from other living things. If you want to claim god, you are going in a circular argument because the question becomes; who made god? If u say that the origin of a statue is a human sculptor, who made the human? It is an infinite regress.



Our solar system is not perfect. Some planets too hot for lie, some too cold. Furthermore, there are other failed solar systems and our solar system will fail in the future. Even if there is a a god, he is a rubbish creator that makes a lot of galaxies many of which we know to be uninhabitable and some failed with exploding stars.

you need to understand something,these arguments are not new.you should realise that almost all atheists and agnostics at one time believed in the fairytale of god.
lemme put it to you this way,even if god exists,he or she isnt the one potrayed in the bible or quran.those religions are human inventions.
even if god exists,he didnt have a son named jesus who came to the world to die for the sins of man that god created knowing fully well that he will commit the sin that will require his only son dying to redeem the man god created.you confused yet?

even if god exists,he didnt select a group of stubborn nitwits called isreal and send them on a murderous rage around the "world".

recently,i started a research on astrophysics and my findings have been astounding.it might do you some good to do your research

this isn't what I am saying at all, stop trivializing it.

It isn't the same thing at all. Most times, mysteries that have been revealed to us in religion to be the manifestation of God's work happen exactly the way we are told they are going to happen.
I am not sure how to explain it sadly. But somethings like predictions or dreams in which the things you see happen in real life exactly how they appeared in the dream or prayers that you make and then you get what you asked for exactly how you asked

That's not true. It isn't a paradox.
A mystery is not understandable by man but we know that God is responsible for them, that doesn't mean that we understand the mystery.
