Thoughts on the beliefs of nihilism and scientism and finally materialism ?

[TiredOfTheWorld]

I know that everyone here doesn't believe these beliefs but why ? And are they better beliefs than Christianity ? If so why or why not. And no I don't believe these beliefs but I've encountered many people that keep promotion these beliefs. I've personally never experienced anything supernatural.

Nihilism is the rejection of all religious and moral principles, in the belief that life is meaningless.
How can such a belief be better than Christianity?

Scientism is a philosophical stance that asserts that knowledge about the universe can be obtained solely through scientific inquiry, particularly through the scientific method, which emphasizes empirical evidence and repeatable experiments.

As the scientific method depends upon a Christian worldview the philosophical idea is invalid since it depends on the supernatural being real.

materialism, in philosophy, the view that all facts (including facts about the human mind and will and the course of human history) are causally dependent upon physical processes, or even reducible to them.

As materialism depends on only on physical processes it can have no views about morality or spirituality.
It come be summed up as, ' Eat drink and be merry for tomorrow we die! '

When you took Jesus as your savior wasn't there a change in your attitude and outlook on life ?

What was your life like before you became a Christian ?

The moment I became a Christian was a supernatural event , my sins were taken away and I was empowered by the Holy Spirit .

Yes, when I became a Christian as I was walking away from the Alter, it was as if the roof had been blown off of the building. I can understand why people want to spend so much time at the alter praying in the presence of God.

Makes 2 of us, so what. The truth of Christianity is not confirmed by our seeing wonderous signs or experiencing amazing things.
They are confirmed by the historical facts of history, by the authority of the bible and by the only suopenatural thing I and you have experienced, 'convertion' .

I know that everyone here doesn't believe these beliefs but why ?

Because God let them see the TRUTH . Because of reason, evidence, experience.

And are they better beliefs than Christianity ? If so why or why not.

No. Christianity promotes love, peace, mercy, justice, truth, righteousness. Christianity builds, but nihilism destroys and demoralizes.
Christianity is TRUE. Nihilism is FALSE. Serve and Love God with all MIND, Heart, Soul, Strength.
Repent, Believe, Accept God's Gifts.
Example prayer: "Jesus, in Your Name, i request that You give me the Gifts of Faith, Repentance, Grace, Salvation. In Your Name, i pray, AMEN."

Have you never experienced the Spiritual rebirth and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit we learn about in John 3:5-7?
Our Spiritual rebirth is that of the supernatural act of God's grace through that of Christ Jesus.

Nihilism is only the worlds way of thinking about such things as being meaningless as to those who belief in this have no hope of those things which are Spiritual from God above.

No. They restrict existence to the material world solely which is a tiny fraction of being.
