It's not an obsession.

you need to go to sikh, hindu and muslim boards and the atheists there could care less about Christianity.

Atheist tend to focus on religions they are familiar with. A large number of nairaland atheists are familiar with Christianity.


don't feel like we are picking on you guys.
Re: Obsessive Atheists by bawomolo(m): 1:23am On Aug 05, 2009
that's the existential question of the day. I suspect deep down they fear it and hence dedicate tremendous effort here on NL to try to discredit, disparage and dissuade people from it.

is your criticism of islam driven by fear?

i believe most atheists are just curious about really goes on in the mind of people who are religious.

  Nope. But I'm not constantly in the islam section trying to bash their religion. I speak about it when the occasion arises.

  Most atheists here on NL spend all day and all their time on NL here in the religion section 'discussing' christianity. This is beyond mere curiosity but moreso an unhealthy obsession.

i.e when exacly does the occasion arise?

As atheists we are opposed to people spreading false doctrines and delusion as regards religion. . . As humanists more or less we will comment and show you the fallacies of the fairy tale you all profess. . .why? - Because every religionist is a potential fundamentalist and every fundamentalist is a threat to human society.
Besides it's never a good idea to let false and dangerous dogmas like religion to spread without a reasoning voice to point out the wrongs of such,if not you religionists would think everyone agrees with your faith and it's only a matter of time before it becomes forced on everyone.
It's more difficult to fight against faith than it is with knowledge. . . .

It's just like capitalists and communists are more often than not always discussing one another pointing out the flaws and shortcomings of each other. Is that obsession?

Like a public news story as with the recent murders of people who allegedly 'defiled' their koran or a hot topic here on NL. Beyond such stories you will not find me on a muslim topic, I have zero intrest in a religion that does not matter to me.

Once an atheist here tried to spin it the same way you just did. That atheists on NL spend so much time doing everything in their power to bring down christianity because they care. It is a cheap delusion & I don't buy it for one second.

The more obvious truth is that they are obsessed, plain & simple.

u love deceiving urself, . .

Are atheists not fundamentalists? are u not a potential fundamentalist? is ur atheistic beliefs/disbeliefs not ridden with dogmas?
where is any evidence to support any of ur claims? u love arrogating false postulations to ur self.

So now MS. Jesoul is the sole authority that can determine which topic is hot or not, right?

If you can comment on an islam topic when you feel it's hot why can't others comment on topics they also feel are 'hot' on their own terms without you labelling it obsession.
What is hot to you might not be hot to others and what others find hot might not be to you.

Besides i don't get your drift. First you say you'll comment when a topic is hot or has to do with violence later you claim zero interest- if you don't see the absolute hypocrisy in your statements then i feel for you.

We do not bring down christianity, you christians do it all on your own!
We see christians of different denominations bashing and speaking against one another. . .i'm pretty sure i've seen you in catholic threads speaking against the doctrines of the RCC, so tell me are you obsessed with catholisism?
Going by your argument are you not supposed to not care?

Don't try to spin it Tudor. I said I only comment on a "hot topic" - which is usually a news story or a thread that has a lot of activity. Others have the right to comment on whatever they want. And when anyone finds themselves commenting over and over on the same issue - they are obsessed. Simple.

  Why do you care about disagreements btw christians? it is of no consequence to you isn't it? Leave us to sort ourselves out. Anyways the topic is not christians fighting each other, but atheists obsessed with christianity - and it is true.

How many of them are bothered by the rising islamist threat in Europe? How many worry about the gods of the hindus? How many were bothered about Ifa priests? But they spend ALL THEIR TIME struggling desperately to prove that Mark was written by a gnostic priest and that Enoch only went to a desert.

For the record let's state that the above is why you post in islamic threads.

How will a thread get activity if people do not post there-in?
A thread doesn't just drop "hot-activity" from heaven, does it?

Others have the right to comment on whatever they want. And when anyone finds themselves [b]commenting over and over on the same issue - they are obsessed. Simple.
To comment Over and over on the same issue SOMEONE has to be opening threads over and over on the same issue. Most often than not it's the christians who open the thread- is that obsession too?

We'll keep repeating the truth as long as you folks continue to propagate your lies over and over.


All right try this, let the christians stop peddling their  delusion for one month on NL the see if any atheist will make a comment about christianity. We do not care as long as you folks keep your delusions to yourself. That is not obsession!
Why do you care about disagreements btw christians? it is of no consequence to you isn't it? Leave us to sort ourselves out. Anyways the topic is not christians fighting each other, but atheists obsessed with christianity - and it is true.
Escapist tactics!
In as much as you'd like to deny it christianity is not just one body.
This has relevance to the topic at hand because in both cases the two groups have disagreements in beliefs. . .key word is DISAGREEMENT.

You would gladly post in any catholic thread condeming and criticizing their beliefs in essence bashing yet you raise your voice at the atheists when they expose your delusions and accuse them of being obsessed- like i once told noetic HYPOCRISY is a fruit of the spirit in christianity!

The simple point I was making is this:
  I don't post excessively on islamic topics - becos I am not obsessed with their religion.
  Atheists post[b]excessively & all the time [/b] on christian topics because they are obsessed with our religion.

Trying to pass off this unhealthy obsession as a "fight against lies" is comical at best, but you're certainly entitled to hold onto it.

We know about christianity because it's the religion we were all taught, we practically grew up with the damn thing!

If you expect us to go reading the koran and verdas because we're atheists then something must be wrong with you.
How many of them are bothered by the rising islamist threat in Europe?
How does this affect anything? Are we supposed to go pick up a koran and start readin because the islamists are coming?
So it's only christians that are worried about terrorism in europe- the absolute nonsense you folks type for jesus is bewildering!
How many worry about the gods of the hindus?
Another BS.
How many hindu's post on NL?
How many were bothered about Ifa priests?
How many ifa priest come to NL opening threads and preaching their delusion?
But they spend ALL THEIR TIME struggling desperately to prove that Mark was written by a gnostic priest and that Enoch only went to a desert.

this is atheist apologist crap also. It is NOT TRUE that you were all "taught" christianity . . . it is also NOT TRUE that you all practically "grew up with christianity". Infact unless you were born into a conservative christian home like i was, you probably had the bible simply to decorate your shelves.

Of all my friends i grew up with who were "christians", i cant remember anyone of them who read the bible at home or were "taught" christianity. They were simply christians in label only . . . so pls cut out the false crap.

I grew up with christianity - and when i say grew up with it i mean read it TWICE A DAY, had to memorise verses once a week, practically could tell which book went after which book by the time i was 8. YOU DID NOT HAVE THAT UPBRINGING SO STOP LYING!

Besides that i know how extremely easy it is for me to simply turn my back on the bible and live like you.

I went to christian primary, secondary and universities all BOARDING. for the best part of over 20years i had devotions every morning and night where we shared the word, read and know memory verses , read and prepare for sermons, even had bible and spiritual courses in my university (which you must pass to grad) - yet you open your mouth with all arrogance and declare i don't have a christian upbringing because of what you saw with some imaginary friends of yours!.


Most nigerian kids in southern nigeria are taught the bible in school or at church yet you ignorantly deny this, pretty much 5year olds know books of the bible and can tell you simple bible tales- the lies you folks tell for jesus is sickening!

Just exactly the same way you also make declarations about christians that are not true. Shocking you only notice that when others make it.

1. This makes absolutely no sense. If you as a kid were "taught" the bible in church (which isnt really true considering the churches many of us grew up in as kids usually are not allowed into the main service) . . . then shldnt most of the blame go to your parents? Why arent you haranguing your father and mother for teaching you bible myths? Why are you here? Did we take you to church?

2. A 5 yr old can tell bible tales and so what? A 5 yr old can also recite Eze goes to school . . . it doesnt mean he believes it as doctrinal truth.

I went to christian primary, secondary and universities all BOARDING. for the best part of over 20years i had devotions every morning and night where we shared the word, read and know memory verses , read and prepare for sermons, even had bible and spiritual courses in my university (which you must pass to grad) - yet you open your mouth with all arrogance and declare i don't have a christian upbringing because of what you saw with some imaginary friends of yours!.
