Lies ?



Jesus did not come for the righteous . A righteous person is a God - believer , follower , adherent of the teachings of Christ whose lifestyle is pleasing unto God . Atheists - scums , scallywags , roadside drunks - reject the word of God with claims that the gospel was made up for deceptiion

See how you deceptively conflate righteousness with belief.
So, in your dumb universe, a person is righteous by simple act of belief in a skyfairy?
Really?

Didn't Jesus say that whatever a man soweth, so also shall he reapeth?
Or did he mean whatever a man believeth ?

Beliefs are for the little people, the sheeple that need another to define reality for them, the unthinking masses that need hand-holding to walk through life.

You obviously read my comment with your device upside down

Beliefs are for the little people, the sheeple that need another to define reality for them, the unthinking masses that need hand-holding to walk through life.

Which belief are you talking about :

1. an acceptance that something exists or is true, especially one without proof or
2. trust, faith, or confidence

Because I can dig out a thousand and one posts where you've shown both meanings of belief . Off course no one wants to get embarrassed , as usual wink cool

In find it funny how you can make a sentence where the end of your sentence contradicts the beginning of your sentence. shocked
How do you manage to do it ? Brain fog?

Let's try to dissect this your convoluted nonsense.

1. " A righteous person is a god believer"
So, all righteous persons are god believers , or, all god believers are righteous?

2. " A righteous person is also follower, adherent of the teachings of Jesus Christ " .
So all believers of god who do not believe, follow the teaching of Jesus are still righteous or unrighteous ?

3. "A righteous person's lifestyle must be pleasing to god".
Pleasing to god as in smashing the heads of babies, committing acts of genocide for god, killing unbelievers for god? Things like that?

You see how silly And contradictory your beliefs and statements are ?

You cannot even define righteousness in one simple sentence without contradicting yourself.

By your definition, only Christians who go on genocidal adventures for god are the righteous ones. People like Hitler, Pope Urban, Pope Leo V, the crusaders, the Spanish inquisitors, the Spanish conquistadors Cortesvand Pizzaro who shed a lot of innocent blood bring Jesus to the native south Americas.

I saw it this morning as I was getting ready to go to church the beach. Nice to see so many people speaking about their doubts and frustrations with religion and the church. But the same old religious BS arguments are there as well.

At least, it is a starting point.

Of course, the denial crew *cough* Kingebukasblog *cough* will be there to bring the religious BS arguments up.

Matthew 15:22- 28

22 And behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came out and was crying, “Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely oppressed by a demon.”

23 But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came and begged him, saying, “Send her away, for she is crying out after us.”

24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

25 But she came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, help me.”

26 And he answered, “It is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.”

27 She said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table.”

28 Then Jesus answered her, “O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed instantly

The pastors, imam, and all preach from the bible and Koran for example. If your God is real as you keep selling, why does he allow pastors and imams to lie in his name and lead people whom you guys claim are his children to be lead astray by them? Will you allow liars and crooks to keep leading your kids astray if you have the power to stop them? Why do you keep exposing this God of yours as the mythical and fictitious idea that it is always? So you have this God that you claim is all good and all powerful but all he does is sit down and watch false pastors and imams lead his innocent children astray, even you will do better than that. You guys are just ridiculous with your funny assertions that never makes any sense when scrutinized.

You talk am oo.. The emergence of reason is a slow and consistent thing i always maintain.

I believe with time, many Nigerians (more than we have now) will come to embrace independent reason and critical thinking in place of religious dogmas...

Critical thinking excludes dogmatic thinking.
Critical thinking doesnt excludes valid religious arguments though.
Both should not be mixed up...

Euhm...JackBizzle...I sort of expect more of you.
If you use biblical arguments to support your statement...let it be based on biblical knowledge.
As you don't value the bible as a source of valid arguments, it is just better not to use it than use it faulty, as you just did.

Thumbs up for this post. Just the final paragraph is not historically correct. But for this time you are forgiven. The post clearly pinpoints the not logical way of reasoning, circle reasoning, fallacies etc. I still find it weird that Nigerian universities don't teach all freshmen students courses philosophy, scientific reasoning etc. Other places in the world this is standard part of the curriculum.
