It's embrace is not leading the western world to ruin, it's religion bringing it to ruin. The spirituality of Yeshua ideology would do us a great deal of good, even Buddha to other spirituals systems. Religion is repetitive and brings us nothing and voids the teachings of a living style of treating others to helping our world.
I'm down for spirituality and the african spiritual systems and the wisdoms that they have brought to this world are very powerful principles.
But I think atheist are tired of the supernatural element in religion, when if there is a deity to create a natural element the supernatural would void his laws and if this creator is lawful as it is good, the creator wouldn't supercede it's rules.
people make sophistical arguments saying that atheism is good for society when the reality of the situation is atheism brings nothing to society. No principles, no morals, no social structure it's simply nothing and does nothing AND DON'T SAY IT BRINGS SCIENCE because it does not even do that. Atheism has nothing to do with science.
All that bullshit you talk You cannot call yourself a believer in the IFA RELIGION in one thread and in another be against the supernatural as african religion is deeply supernatural, this leads me be believe you don't know what the fuck are talking about. You lack knowledge and don't have any foundation for what you say . The world is not getting better with the spread of atheism it's getting worse because while technological progress will always continue the spiritual understanding of how to use that progress is lacking.
Religion cannot be leading the western world to ruin because religion has always been around and if not for religion the west would have stayed in the dark ages even longer. So not only are you ignorant about theology you also know nothing about history.
It was technology dude and science that got Europe out of the dark ages. The gun anyone? How to make proper living conditions? That's what got Europe out of the dark ages, philosophy, art, and it was culture. Not religion.
If it was religion Europe would have became Muslims at the end of the day if it was so transpiring.
the dark ages ended before the use of the gun became widespread in europe, you have very little historical education the art and philosophy of europe revolved around religion for centuries. Europe did not fall to islam because of THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND CHARLES MARTEL. The battle of tour was a MAJOR POINT in world history. religion united europe somewhat and was the only coherent organization on that continent.
You need to reread your history books @zombie
You put too much stock on religious centers vs human ingenuity.
All we need is another philosophy that will takes us further, hopefully the philosophy of critical thinking.
You are too rigid in your thinking that atheism is going to lead our world to ruin, like it isn't near ruin already.
You guys have yet to explain why you would think the world should be ashamed of atheist.
I'm not even atheist and I was joking about the ifa religion. You niggas and your feelings are so high in the air.
I'm agnostic and I'm like until there is certainty I'm not going to care to look for creator, deity or whatever out there higher.
