How do you go from certain to many ?

Names and locations ?

Atheism & Skepticism in Primitive Cultures

Google if you want more info, which you should have done before posting. Spiritual belief at first in Africa was started because they didnt know as much as we did. They believed their gods was the ones that made trees, plants etc grow and all of that that we now know how work. Calling atheisms as something evil that was created by europeans is just stupid


Also, Im not advocating for Atheism or dismissing religion. Dont wanna be caught in a crossfire of religion vs atheism and all that shyt.

There were many of old African tribes that showed no signs of any belief in any god(s)

As long as you're believing in plants or rabbit or ancestors, it's not atheism.

Plus, I read your link; it's just confused affirmations. No mame of the so called atheistics tribes then you have this "Tribes in Cameroon only believed in malicious gods and so made no efforts to placate or please them". But it's still believing.

There is no traces of atheistic societies in ancient Africa.

Whatever your thoughts are on theism or atheism...a surgence at this point by the black american segment to question the primary and arguably the oldest (social, cultural, intellectual) construct in this American Society (christianity)....is a very good thing. If you are going to commit to a system/thought pattern...that obviously has little impact on uplifting you socially/economically; then at least consider the other options first...or at some point in your earthly existence.

The great thing about atheistic thinking is it revolves on logic and evidence. In other words, imagine the entire populace of black america withholding tithe money into investing, time spent in a pew to time spent in a classroom, repeating spooky tales to kids to explaining laws of land/nature/history to kids. I for one say that the end product would indeniably be a better one. A self aware and educated populace with non concentrated/predicatable capital that understands the law and knows thier history= A problem for any supremacist construct, injustice, or oppression.


The opposite is a vastly segmented populace that does not understand secular sciences/laws/social dynamics, or has any method of controlling it's currency for effect. Kids that have no knowlege of self, self esteem, and largely direction. The only common theme among them is to sin and pray for forgiveness and cling to the hope that all this earthly bullshyt is over when Goku opens the clouds and tosses all the faithful senzu beans, and then everybody goes super saiyan and lives happily ever after on king kais planet.

Atheistic societies are a feature of late european civilization.

The first humans, who were black, had no belief in god in the start until different tribes began to worship different animals, then moved onto the sun, gods and spiritual powers. This then moved onto Africans settling into now Egypt and creating a new religion on which they worshipped dozens of gods.

it was when colonization began that most Africans became Muslims and Christians.

Incorrect. Africans embraced Islam/Christ before colonization in some parts of the continent. West Africans like the Songhai had Muslims and Christians thriving together. But colonization spread the religion like wildfire

And asian.

Which one.

 

[Isaiah Bradley]

Who are your ancestors?
Spirtuality does not = religion. Once again you simply hate religion, nobody can prove a creator exists nor does not exist so you hide hatred of belief under the pseudo intelligent guise of saying you dont believe in God. Atheist will say God cant be real because bad things happen to Good people. Just say you hate the concept of a Creator because nobody stopped the crappy things that happned to you from happening.

And just say you can't have an intellectual convo about religion, spirituality, and atheism without forcing a convenient label and pre-conceived opinions on those who challenge you
Where did I mention anything about proving god, atheist belief, or bad things happening to good people? you need that so you could response with a cookie cutter argument
Your labels and opinions about me were not triggered via anything I said
Your irrational actions and cookie cutter response to questions and ideologies you hope I hold in this thread continues to do more harm for those of us who believe in a religion by proving correct the issues of religious people, that those of us who are athiest have

How do you "create" not believing in something?

Easy... There is no need to organize a platform to express how much you don't believe in something...

Prove a creator does not exist.

Prove a creator does not exist.

Prove one does.



Yall need to stop arguing over this and let people believe what they want. Goes to both sides. None of you are going to change eachothers or anyone's belief.

 

[Isaiah Bradley]

Prove a creator does not exist.

I've proven my point
