■ Nothing is fact there,I read it and it really sound like one of the millions of blackmail against Arabs mainly because of Islam. Islam never said indulge in slave trade,it says free slaves and be rewarded. Besides there are many Christians Arabs too,Islam is not Arabs and Arabs are not Islam. Islam is for the whole makind and Jins.
1. Reality doesn't seem to sit well with you much, does it? The slave-trade is still ongoing right there in African even to this day, yet you think that by denying it, you can somehow make it all seem to not exist? undecided

■ I said Jesus and Christianity didn't bring any enlightenment into Europe. It actually destroyed Europe. It was in age of Christianity that different types of torture machines were built in Europe to kill non believers. It was in the age of Christianity that Europe went to the crusades and killed millions of people in the Middle East and Mediterranean. It was in the age of Christianity that Europe went for mass murderer in the inquisitions. It was in the age of Christianity that Europe burned scientific books and rejected science as the "knowledge of man" It was in the age of Christianity that if anything like a plague or pandemic occured in Europe, they'll say God is angry with them instead of looking for cure. It was in age of Christianity that Europe began enslaving our ancestors in Africa and America and justified it as the will of God. The list is endless. Again, tell me how Christianity enlightened Europe.
1. Again, Jesus Christ was not involved in enlightenment projects in Europe nor did He even teach anything about Europe. What He said, almost 2000 years ago, is that He was sent by His Father only to the Lost sheep of Israel. undecided

1. Ogbeni, you too dey read the book upside down. The law you quoted is instead a part of the National Constitution of the Nation of Israel in the Land of Canaan - Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20. Just as it is foolish for a one who lives in Nigeria to abide instead by the Constitution of Ghana, it would also amount to foolishness for even a Christian living in Nigeria or anywhere else to abide by that Constitution which God gave only to the people of Israel in the land of Canaan. lipsrsealed

2. Those who belong to Jesus Christ are instead of a different Nation — The kingdom of God aka God's special Kingdom of Priests — and Jesus Christ pretty much said they can eat anything they choose and it would not defile them — Matthew 15 vs 10 - 20 & Mark 7 vs 14 - 23 ; Jesus Christ is the Law which those who belong to Him are meant to abide by. undecided

1. What is written in that book is 1000s of years old, so, it's not my fault that you failed to grasp a detailed that hasn't changed at all over that period. undecided

2. YHWH, the one you quoted, isn't the God of "Christians", as He is instead the Law of Moses, the National Constitution of the Nation of Israel in the Land of Canaan - Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20. Jesus Christ is instead the God of "Christians", God's New Covenant Law and Truth in the Kingdom of God which His followers belong instead. And as I showed us, His Law does not bar His followers from eating pretty much whatever they want in following Him. undecided

3. How can He be imported when right there in Africa there are many whose roots can be traced to parts outside of Africa? Or are you one of those who like to think that if it is black, it has to be African and African alone? undecided

4. The shame here is instead on you for not grasping before now a fact that is 1000s of years old. undecided

With due respect, you don't know know what you're talking about.

On the contrary, your Jesus Christ actually destroyed knowledge in Europe because once Europe converted to Christianity (325 AD) they became irrational. They destroyed the works of people like Plato, Socrates, Pythagoras, Plutarch, Aristotle, etc claiming that their knowledge were evil.

In fact, till the 1600's, any scientific thought in Europe that disagreed with the bible was punishable by hanging. Scientists like Giordano Bruno were burned alive in the name of Jesus!! Everything was then attributed to God and not knowledge, so prosperity declined in Europe because they could no longer make rational use of the mind, just as religion has destroyed us in Africa today. Europe then descended to what's called the dark ages (starting 400 AD), that's 75 years after converting to Christianity. The dark ages was the worst time in history that Europe has ever been. It lasted for 1,000 years!! One thousand years of stupidity!!

In the dark ages, Europeans themselves said that all knowledge were lost, to the extent that people could no longer read or write. The reason all knowledge was lost is because people couldn't read anything else outside the bible. The works of people such as Plato, Pythagoras, Socrates, etc were lost. Europe then had to eat the humble pie and they went to the lands of the "pagans" in Africa and Arabia to literally steal books and knowledge, which they took back to Europe. But they didn't tell you that in your bible class or school.

Europe completely destroyed themselves with Christianity till they realized how ugly it is. They actually culturally and socially rejected Christianity and replaced it with scientific knowledge!! Once Europe discarded Jesus, beginning from what they call the renaissance period, and began to seek true knowledge outside the bible, they began to develop at a phenomenal speed.

All you have to do to verify what I've said here in order to correct the impression you have of Jesus bringing anything good to the world, is go to YouTube and watch the documentary: the dark ages in Europe. It's by history channel. You'll see white people themselves narrating what I just said here.

If you don't have data for YouTube, then search Google for:

1. The dark ages in Europe
(The age of Christianity in Europe, the age of ignorance and stupidity)

2. The renaissance period in Europe
(The age of questioning began in Europe. Some autodidacts like Africason began to question the way society works)

3. The enlightenment period in Europe
(Flood of knowledge began to spread like wildlife in Europe. Europe rejects Jesus, and further questioning led to scientific enquiry)

4. The scientific revolution in Europe
(Science became a part of life in Europe. Soon Europe became a world power and began to rule the world. Within this period, they rejects the bible God Jehovah too and they put their destiny in their own hands, and began replicating natural events like thunder, rainfall). This is when people like Fredric Niesche declared that "God is dead".

Read it in that order and you'll understand how Europe came out from savagery to civility.

You absolutely know nothing about Christian history in Europe.
FYI Isaac Newton was a man of faith, a devout Christian.
Gutenberg invented the printing press machine because he wanted mass circulation of the bible.
Queen Isabella of Spain and her husband sponsored Columbus trip to America because she wanted to spread the gospel to foreign lands. Colombia wasn't even Spanish but got the queen's attention because of her passion for evangelism.
Christianity and enlightenment brings about positivity in all endeavours of life. Separate both and what we have is darkness and amoral society.
The Renaissance didn't weaken Christianity on Europe, in fact it made it stronger. People could now practice their faith without undue pressure and burden from legalist but ignorant Catholic papal institutions.
The founding members of royal academy of science in 1660 were Christians.
William Wilberforce and other activist who advanced for abolition of slavery in the 18th century were Christians. They nearly pushed UK into bankruptcy by enforcing the ban across the west African coast, but those guys were determined because no cost was too high to pay for abolition of the inhuman practice.
Friedec Nietzsche and other philosophers didn't even come into the picture until the late 19th and 20th century when Christian Europe dominance was already established and globally unchallenged.

How far stuff like this (same-sex business) should be mixed with religion is up for debate (I’m not keen on the idea of them intermingling to this extent as it goes, not when the Bible makes itself so clear) but exaggerated homophobia in 2023 is a bit of a dead ting. You think it’s immoral, fine. But don’t go over the top with it.

Homosexuality has been condemned from Biblical times. Christendom should not embrace it openly just as the Islamic, Jewish and traditional religions will never do that. And that is where the strictness of the three makes them an attractive option for moral uprightness.

It should rather be a curse than a blessing, God's word is firm about sodomy and other sexual deviant behaviors. That is the reason Sodom and Gomorah were totally destroyed, the church of England should be warned that God can not be mocked

You are a pathetic liar,Arabs never practiced slave trade in the East Africa,nonetheless that practice was acrossboard and who had more power did it more and it's the Western powers as a matter of fact,it has nothing to do with Islam,Arabs were great idol worshippers before the prophet if you didn't know.
Freeing slaves is encouraged in Islam and the first man to call for a prayer in Islam was a black slave freed and paid for by the first companion of Mohammed.

I dare you to show me where Jesus said he will die for mankind,biblically there is nothing like that,just the teaching of churches,Jesus was clearly asked way of heaven he said obey the commandments,he never said I will die to save you.
As for conversions Christianity comes nowhere close to Islam,Islam has been the fastest growing religion for a long time now and still is.

It doesn't even make sense to say God sent his son to be killed by His creations in other to forgive the creations,any serious Christian who read wide looking for God ends up being a Muslim.
Islamic God forgives any crime without any blood,He is the most merciful God.
Wow! preacher from the pit of hell!Sir,where do you get this your doctrines from?The end of everything is here already. Repent and believe the true gospel.
