macof:Qur'an "Wa maa khalaqtul-Jinna wal-'insa 'illa liya'-buduun." Quran Chapter 51 Ayah 56 I created the Jinn and humankind only to worship Me Bible : Matthew 4:10 New International Version (NIV) 10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’ :::::::::::::: The Only medium through which God has communicated with HumanBeing are the scriptures and the only essence of creation is to satisfy/worship God How you satisfy God : You do that by complying with his Dos and Don'ts !! |

I remember when I usually referred your brain as PuffPuff and that of all LogicBoy's moniker because you guys will never stay on point of discord but dillydallying just to unreasonably refute facts !! I posted based on the Topic of the thread ( read the Topic and Op) and U quoted asking questions and I replied you with reasons why Religion wouldn't use Logic in conducting what they do since scriptures is what they use to conduct their activities !!! Only for you to turn around and made this thread about yourself!! This thread is not about YOU nor whatever you belief!! tis about why is Logic not allowed in Religion....... ...... You guys just argue dirty and baseless what is my business if you belief in drunkards or not , that is your own problem not mine , my own is to give reasons why Religion doesn't allow Logic and I have done that 2 Likes |

texanomaly: When i talk about God, i don't have a person in mind. I think of the entity or entities that powered this universe. I don't believe that everything we see just appeared by accident. There is too much order in the world for such to be possible. So i believe we have a creator or creators although no one can say with any measure of certainty what he, she or they look like. 2 Likes |

qstar: Miracle is a vague term used to describe occurrences that deviate from the established natural course of events. I am sure that such things occur in every religion of the world. If there were no religions, these occurrences would still happen. It is therefore erroneous for anyone to say these miracles happen because their own religion is right while others are wrong. 1 Like |

macof:life based Observation 1 An American asked a Nigerian, why is Logic not allowed to preside over Mega Nigeria ? Then the Nigerian answered : According to Part 1 section 1(1) , the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria is the supreme document for Nigerians and not what our Logic define to be right nor wrong therefore, in order not to run into trouble in the longrun , we must conform with the provisions of our constitution and not what our Logic defined to be right nor wrong !! Then , the foolish American said : Hey , sharap, stop quoting your constitution for Non-Nigeria , why can't you use Logic and life -based observation to express yourself !! ........ ....... ( a person whose IQ is up2date would already seen the stupidity on the part of the American) !! Life based observation 2 The Logic of two homosexual define that both of them can marry one another , yes, Western system support that, but under the constitution of Nigeria , it is 14years imprisonment , Unfortunately, the Logic of Homosexuals doesn't preside over the Supreme Document of Nigerians Life based Observation 3 In 2007, General Olusegun Obasanjo's logic defined that He should spend third term in Office after spending two tenures as allowed by the constitution (Chapter 6 section 135 is very clear) ..... But foolish Macof said : why should Nigerian Constitution be cited against Obasanjo, why not life based observation to allowed his Logic precide !! What does Intelligence shown ? Intelligence is what you used to ascertain whether you are conforming with required pattern or being starkly foolish ....... !!! intelligence tells you if there is deviation in patterns, where the deviation occurs and why the deviation as well as corrective measures to put in place !! In an Organised system that has a document guiding them , it is not about what You feel right nor wrong , it is about what the document states especially regarding your conduct Religiously i.e something to be done repetitively !! Where each and every human should be allowed to deplore his/her own Logic then Human would have a ''lose systems'' like animals even in Animal Kingdom, they have a kinda Order too i.e a pattern they often abide by (Watch Nat Geo Wild or AnimalPlanet) ...... Yes, some animals even got punished for deviation in pattern !!! ..... Imagine , Animals oo !!! Religion has never stopped me from using my IQ, infact , it has helped my growth Intelligently !! Conclusion : There is no logic behind saying there is no GOD , that is the highest level of Foolishness a Man can attain !! |

mazaje1: It is good to see that you accept the words of Dr Patrick Theillier. Let us read more from him: Doctor Patrick Theillier, who retired from leadership of the bureau last year, stated this in an interview with France Catholique. The cure, he explained, "might not be as spectacular as to be considered a miracle." However, the physician added, it can affect "in a profound and lasting way the person who experiences it, in all his being, body, soul and spirit." Doctor Theillier affirmed that "these cures are truly innumerable." The bureau is a medical organization run by doctors that operates within the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, which, among other things, is responsible for the medical investigation of cures associated with the shrine. The doctor noted that there are, of course, miraculous cures as well in Lourdes, and 67 have been officially recognized as such. He affirmed that these miracles are sometimes "necessary," such as at the beginning of the Church. "For faith to increase, it must be supported by miracles," Doctor Theillier said. Moral sufferings Yet today, he continued, perhaps more than a century ago, we have a need "to be relieved from moral sufferings and the wounds of life, of a psychological-spiritual order, which goes beyond medicine." "Here is where Lourdes responds to a very present need, which undoubtedly corresponds more to its original message," the physician stated. He asserted that these types of "miracles" are "much greater" than the bodily cures, as souls are "regenerated." These miracles, he said, can take place if you desire them, hope with faith, and pray to God. "Extraordinary physical cures have become rare," Doctor Theillier observed, given that "God acts in the first place through human mediation, through medicine and doctors." This year, Lourdes will be the site of the international congress for the World Federation for the Catholic Medical Associations. The theme for this May 6-7 event will be "Medicine and Faith." Doctor Theillier issued an invitation for all doctors worldwide to go to Lourdes on this occasion in order to network with colleagues, hear addresses on the application of faith to medicine, and make a pilgrimage as an "occasion to experience the cure that we all need." "My hope at this time is that numerous Catholic doctors who suffer much at present because of their faith […] will come to find by Our Lady's side consolation and cure," he said. He invited all Catholics, "Speak with your doctor!" The physician concluded, "As those who have come to previous congresses have shown, the doctors who attend will be able to experience God's mercy in this place of graces." http://www.zenit.org/en/articles/doctor-says-many-are-cured-in-lourdes Miracles happen in Lourdes! I know that will drive you crazy and you'll start saying nonsense again. |

? Kay17: I'm talking to you, not Wikipedia. You say it is irrational to believe the universe came from God. Where then do you believe the universe came from? By reason, did reason and logic emerge from thoughtless randomness? You are still too scared to attempt these questions. When you confront these questions in your heart, you'll be on your way out of the confusion that is Atheism. |
