It was only in 1842 that William Townsend set up the first Christian Mission in Badagry but the Augustinian and Capuchin Monks quietly came and went long before the second batch came with all these monuments.

No one has yet made any reasonable explanation of how the Bible Yahweh, with his genocidal sprees, is a Godly character.

Thanks bro, but it's difficult sometimes..... @ the bolded, I somehow believe God has important message to pass to mankind but why would He rely on initial revelation to certain individuals who then writes it down and thousands and thousands of years after this we have to rely on copies and copies of translations of copies by anonymous authors with no originals?

I think, in this age, having a few scriptures and anecdotal testimonies is not really enough to convince a rational thinker..... It seems I'm overstretching my mind

if its about scriptures, I've read a few... the biblical canon is just a set of books to establish a system of beliefs... i don't in any way mean to offend the opinions of people who believe the bible to be the word of God but it contains a set of writings you call “revelations"... these books as you claim, reveal God's message to humans but have been translated over and over again ... that is true.. the problem is... how many people are ready to hear from God?? and how many of those hearings are not expectations?... most Christians nowadays seem to want to hear from God in the area of something they desire not what God desires... most prayer points are concentrated on us... prayer is more of a one way... cuz you're doing the talking... God is ever ready to reveal to people... we just need to clear our minds of everything and anything... and just be ready to hear from him as if you dont know anything and experience him like a baby.. another problem is that we claim to know... when we ask for revelations we tend to expect something similar to what we were taught/already knew.. that's why i said to clear the mind of anything and everything... claim not to know... then you will hear... that's why i like the eckists(although I'm not one)... they believe more in experience than letter... what I'm trying to say is.... there is no message that was said only to people in the old times and not nowadays... the thing is that we just have to listen... we have to be ready to get our firsthand experience... thanks

Why do you not assume that the desert sand aided by the desert wind could have someone through one random process caused the house to exist especially when there are no humans or houses to be seen in any direction hundreds of miles away?

Desert winds have not been observed to build human houses. They form dumes and all. But they don't form houses. Only human beings build human houses. Where ever you see a human house in any part of the world it must be built by humans, because we know that only humans build human houses.

*facepalm*

Is Nigeria not part of Africa? Why you dey reason like this? If Christianity first hit Egypt in the 1st Century and Ethiopia in the middle of the 1st Century AD its expected to spread and it was already here in Nigeria before the white man came and it was brought by Monks...Research a little abeg

Christianity first came to Nigerian when? The name of the monks that brought it to Nigeria? When did Christianity come to your village? Egypt is in the middle east which is the birth place of Christianity.

When did christianity get to your village and tell me the name of the monks that brought it.

Answer 4everGod's question: why did you not assume that winds and sands in the desert built up the house?

Anyway, your assertion that "absence of evidence is the evidence of absence"(I never knew someone couldassert this) has been conclusively proven wrong.
Because desert winds do not build human houses. If you know any human house that has been built by desert winds then show me. We know that human beings alone build human houses. So any where we see one we know it was built by humans. If you know any house that exist anywhere in the world that was not build by humans show me the house.

Do you know that there are people who consider caves as their homes? Was it built by humans? What if nature would eventually keep working on those caves and we would have doors, windows, plumbing, septic tank, rooms, kitchen etc even though they are not complex right?

That is not the proof that a house found in the middle of a desert was built by a man. For what it's worth, that could be the first house built by desert wind in synergy with desert sand.

It is impossible for desert wind to construct a human house if you disagree then explain how. The mechanism and all needa to be explained by you in details. What can be asserted without any evidence deserves to be dismissed without evidence.

And I said randomness created anything when and where? We have never observed humans building houses but we have never observed anything creating a human being.

There are many of us that are very OK with the I do not know position.

Prove the bolded. It's your assertion.

Note: I inserted the the phrase "in synergy with desert sand" as that properly represents my argument.

Are you sure its impossible for random desert winds and sand to construct a house?

Sand is already available

Rain does fall in the desert but not frequently so there is water

The composition of the sand is the same composition that brings about iron ore known as IRONSAND (look it up)

So you are saying that its impossible that somehow all these components would come together to form a house on their own right?

Oh a cave is not a house right? A house is what you call it. A car can be a mobile home can it not? A cardboard box can be a house? under a bridge is considered a house to some.

A house is simply a place of residence so a cave is a house to some.

It takes a consious mind with a direct purpose to build a human house. Desert wind isn't consious and acts randomly with out any purpose as such it can never build a human house.

Explain to me in details how a random force like the desert win in synergy with desert sand can build a human house. Am waiting.

Can you define the origin of evolution again for me? cheesy cheesy cheesy

So you agree that it takes a conscious mind to bring a non complex house to existence yet it does not take the same conscious mind to bring your complexity and all the earths complexity to existence.... I hear you grin grin

It takes a conscious mind to plant a tree. Wind can also deposit a seed in an arbitrary place and a tree grows there.

So what are you saying?
