Why do atheists turn to drugs and SUICIDE?

The curious case of Benjamin Button

Bro, that was strong sentiment, I felt you were screaming with that reply.

This dude pretends like he wants the truth but is mind is already made up.
He only sees and reads what he wants to believe and nothing more.
And he keeps spreading ignorance and lies, possible effecting other people in here.
No sense of responsibility at all

Calm down.

The fanatic is you. I don't pay attention to you (although you sure pay attention to me), much less send harassing messages because you have a different viewpoint. I think every post you've made in this thread is about me. You seem to have an unhealthy obsession. Being opposed to atheism is pretty common. If being against atheism is fanatical, probably most humans are fanatical.

You're a fanatic.

You have a unhealthy obsession with religion and atheism. The cause of addiction and suicide (clinical depression) cant be summed up in 1 cause or effect. Its multi dimensional problem.
Try to watch this with an unbiased eyes and ears.

I watched the videos and it doesn't refute the article @Omar del Sur posted at all.

Thats not the point of the video. The point of the video is to show that its not just faith that makes someone take their life. Its not just faith that makes someone abuse drugs. And thats the point of @Omar del Sur thread. He believes peoples faith is the ONLY factor that matters.

This is a segment from the article he posted.

"Unaffiliated subjects were younger, less often married, less often had children, and had less contact with family members"

But i bet he totally ignored that sentence.

Atheists have a sense of right and wrong. Morality is god given and comes implanted into every human being. They can be in denial of that for convenience and for the sake of their argument of no creator, but surely, every human who is not mentally ill is capable to distinguish right from wrong.

I seen flaws in some of his thinking. My recommendation to him is to get educated and understand he has no guarantees from Allah that he himself will die on Islam. We all should be wary of assuming a position of certainty with regards to our standing in front of Allah then behave untowardly towards other human beings. Everyone on earth be they atheist or a believer is a potential convert. We should invite others out of love and sympathise with them instead of being antagonistic in our approach. Mistakes and fallacies of atheism need to be pointed out most certainly, but doing so in the best manner possible serves Islam better.

My disagreement with brother Omar has to do with his tendency to believe conspiracy theories. He needs to go out and befriend others no matter who they are and teach them something about Islam through his character. A muslim is supposed to be the embodiment of Islam, we all fail in that regard. But those of us who want to do good and make a sacrfice should have kindness and empathy towards others they want to deal with.

- If you were a teen with raging hormones and had no clue about social and personal negative implications of unregulated sex, naturally your reaction would be to be put off about Islam that tells you to exercise self control and pay your dues before you have sex first. There is dignity to a regulated sex through social and religious norms. It doesn't take faith for a guy to know his wife should only be his for example. Or his girlfriend should only be his. In the name of sex, and for the sake of satisfying desires, an atheist would object to sex with anyone by his wife. Examples to hihglight why it is important to regulate sex in humans are too many to count. The absence of such norms would result in social and personal issues.

- Same goes for pork, alcohol. drugs etc. Whilst the reasons for their banning may not be obvious to the uneducated and uninformed, there is plenty of data of why these are counter productive for humans. If you were a nomad somewhere in Somalia, and you needed to know the reasons scientifically, you couldn't. Imagine then and there you left Islam because the answers you were seeking were not available whilst you were tending to your herds? Would that make sense to you really?


Islam directs muslims and others to take their questions to people with Knowledge. Allah does not expect human beings to know every answer. Also, in Islam, some reasons are not clarified simply because they are not necessary for faith.

Others can add to what I said above and correct me if I am wrong from the brothers reading here.
