Like I said, petitionary prayer is useless.

[bestbaby @bestbaby]

If you prayed and did not get an answer to your prayers, God is not the problem.

you are the problem because God answers prayers. but there are conditions to receiving answers to prayers

Conditions:
- faith
- motives
- patience
- obedience
- alignment with God’s will. etc

I’m poor and still an atheist, your point is worthless.

@Thy_EXodus Can I buy you a bottle of wine?

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

It's crazy how people have been defending the efficacy of prayers, when in fact bandits have killed thousands of Christians in churches during prayer sessions.
The Owo Massacre? Hundreds of churches in Northern Nigeria?
Even your church could be targeted, and you could be gone🙂

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

See as atheism dey trigger una. Athiests wey be minority for Nigeria 😭

[𝗙𝗔𝗩𝗘 🀄︎ @0xfavvee]

once big funds enter these boys wallet, the next thing is to forcefully become an atheist lol.

God is the greatest regardless and prayer works!

this level of ragebait only works on people with low iq

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

Same pragmatic effect for a theist and an atheist btw. He no dey ever work 😭

[whizz @whizz_xD]

if bandit jam you

you go first shout “God” 😭✌🏼

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

Even if they went through similar ordeals and kept their faith, that doesn't mean that you're wrong for not keeping yours. Your pain is personal and you are the only one who understands it. Don't let anyone downplay your feelings. If you want to go back as well , you should.

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

I'm here to tell you that whatever reasons you had for leaving religion are valid. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Faith is grossly personal, and you should treat it as such. You don't have to explain your reasons to anyone; they'll try to explain it away anyway.

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

@TheWanderingAzn Such that when we say that humans are animals, we also have a normative principle not to treat humans like actual animals?

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

@TheWanderingAzn I have a question. Is it possible to have normativity from a pure scientific worldview?
I mean, is it possible for something to be understood in its biological/physical context with some level of normativity?
Like, can we understand an idea in this manner?

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

@mideissexy There are extremely smart atheists. There are extremely smart theists. I think this is a more sincere divide.

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

I started questioning religion around 2022 when I saw @_OKJ__ posts on Facebook. I am eternally grateful to him.

[⛌ev @xeverade]

Some folks are changing their beliefs in God because of a tweet they read on this app.

choose whatever works for you, but make sure your convictions are built on more than a few posts from strangers on the internet.

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

If this was your reason, I'm glad to tell you that its a good one. I think this is more than enough.

[Eze Nwanyi @Eze_Nwanyi_18]

Atheism comes from a hurt.
They expected something, lost something then channel that hurt to hate then concluded that God doesn't exist if so and so can happen.

[praize  @notPraize]

I’m still poor and Yes there’s no God

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

If faith is a personal matter, then the personal deductions of individuals concerning these issues should be personal. When you now experience it, and your faith is still strong, then you can speak for yourself. Don't downplay the experiences of other people.

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

These rhetorics come from a place of comfort. If an individual is subjected to the most gruesome horrors, and such an individual comes to the conclusion that there is no God, I think it is understandable. Maybe you've never experienced real horror, that's why.

[st. mıchaeł☆ @allaboutmicheal]

saying god doesn't exist because there's evil in the world no be valid argument sha

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

It may not be a valid reason for you, but trust me, it is more than valid for many people who are experiencing real evil in the world. You cannot tell them how to react to their pains or what conclusions they must deduce from such an experience. It is theirs to make.

[The Stool Of Wisdom𓃵 @dStoolofWisdom]

@temiace22 If that makes you feel better, no wahala.

[Brandon T. Adams @BrandonTheAdams]

Nothing is objectively moral. Problem dissolved. It only feels that way. Because it has to, or else it wouldn’t work on us.

One clue that morality is not objective is that reality does not push back on moral rights and wrongs. Only humans push back. Reality only pushes back on actual objective errors, like if you think you can fly or the earth is flat. You can test these ideas and reality will let you know. You can’t test reality on whether or not generosity or genocide is correct. Reality doesn’t care about those things. Only creatures with the ability to suffer and cooperate do.
