I have come across this comment made by African atheist several times..../ the white man sold lies to you by giving you religion which claim there is a creator (God) of all things and you accepted it. they even accused the believers for not having sense of reasoning. but this same white man brought education to them which also claim there is no creator (God) they accept it and claim they have brain. and i Wonder where there brain is located.if the white man has given you reasons trough scientific findings that there is no God..which by instincts, your ancestors never accepted. and the same white man gave me the bible to understand better what my ancestors already knew by instincts there are gods which of this two shows the presence of sense of reasoning? our ancestors already knew there is the supernatural even before the coming of the white mans religion..they never accepted to be dependent on there brains,but instincts showed them the presence of the supernatural.that is why they had different traditional gods.everything an atheist claim to know about the non existance of God comes from the same white man he accuses the African religious man of learning from. religious text's were written thousands of years before the first foolish man who will letter spread atheist ignorance came to exist. the bible has its first verse ..Gen 1:1..in the begin God created the heaven and the earth.. note:-(God is the course) because he is an external force as it is..but no atheist texts has ever started with the beginning of creations.. they must prove its non inspirational.. by talking a lot of nonsense b/4 they jump to the middle were matter and energy created all things. the same set of creatures would agreed to the law of course and effect but there brains will reformat within a second and they will come up with another theory that matter and energy defile the law of course and effect.I still ask there brain location.. ..hypocrisy... hypocrisy.. and need of brain cleanser..

Atheism has never been a natural state in humans - this explains its extreme low retention rate . God created man with the propensity to seek knowledge of Him .

cool Christianity was imported into Africa by Europeans, while Islam was imported by Arabs. Atheism is the natural state of man - everyone was born an atheist. As a child progress through life, ignorant adults start telling them tales by moonlight aka 'God', 'demons' 'Satan' etc. Its that simple and straight forward - no need to complicate the issue. cool

But you are still a christian who believes that the white man's god died for you. Are you not a hypocrite as well? You are quoting from Genesis,the same book that encouraged the enslavement of your ancestors. Kettle calling the pot black!

Babies are not atheists .

KingEbukasBlog:

Bro , I kept reiterating that babies don't need labels - theist , agnostic , atheist , deist , pantheist - because they lack the ability to believe , hold opinions etc . All these theological and philosophical propositions on God are beliefs , and since babies don't have the ability to believe (conscious explicit acceptance ) and are born with a tabula rasa then they are none of those .

They don't need labels !!!

1. Buddhism is a religion that do not believe in a deity while deism acknowledges the existence of God but rejects religion . So your statement that conversion to religion makes you believe in God is wrong .

2. Atheism requires belief , and babies can't have beliefs or hold opinions since they are born with a tabula rasa or clean slate .

3. Even if the God idea is not introduced to the baby . As he grows , he can through inductive reasoning - personal observation -conclude that a creator (God) exists .

Since the universe has a beginning and a cause it must have a creator . And this creator is eternal or else it would progress into infinite regression which is very illogical .

What is the meaning of "Being"?

I hope this is not going where I think it is going . You are trying to view God as some kind of formless force who exists outside space and time .

Being is used to address entities or could mean existence .

cool Buddhism is not atheism - Atheists do not believe in spirits, Buddhist do. Atheists do not believe in re-incarnation, Buddhists do. Many Christians say Christianity is not a religion but yet people have to convert to Christianity - so this is nothing but semantics. cool

cool Atheism does not require ANY belief. Atheists do not see any reason to change the natural human state of atheism. Those who became atheist after accepting belief in God decided that the natural state is best. cool

cool Reasoning done without bias will take you back to the natural state- which is atheism. Faith (Not reason) is key to religion. For example, no amount of reasoning will make you accept the concept of a 'talking' donkey. I can give other examples but I assume you get my point already. cool

If Being means Entities or Existence, what would you call a Human-Being? Mind you,you have already said God is an entity.

"There is no God" is a declaration showing omniscience . Have you embarked on a peregrination to all possible dimensions , outside the universe to ascertain there is no God ? The answer is no . So its a belief .

Atheism is not a natural state . If it were everyone would quickly dump religion instead atheism has the lowest retention rate in the world . The deists acknowledge the existence of God through Reason , Nature and Science .

There is God without Religion , and There is Religion without God .

God an entity,Humans are entities who function independently,according to you. So what makes God special if it shares the same attributes with Humans? A Being has no beginning or an end. It's function is to be in a continuous state. What brought about a different entity?

He is rejecting the bible god which I completely agree with. However, God,if I will use a religious term is a state a highly enhanced and upgraded human will reach if all potentials are used. God is an advanced term for a state of disciplined and well developed mind.
