Logicbwoy: Erm......wait!


I reread this whole thread and realised that an outsider reading this thread would assume that me and maclatunji are fighting for Fellis's love.


First of all, we both praise her comment which Lagoshia noted (flattery)

Then I got banned by Mac (Jealousy)


Then I came back asking Fellis if I am the bad guy (acting like the innocent fine boy)

Then Mac tells Fellis that I'm a nuisance and that he is the boss. (flexing moderator muscle for the girl)

Now, we both lost her! sad


lmao!

This has gone crazy!

Laughing My Freaking Self Out (LMFSO). Please tell me whose "love " Seun was fighting for when he banned you.

Oh, you're now responding to me?


See how mentioning fellis makes Maclatunji do wonders?


Everyone can see that my comment there was a joke.


Why do I have the feeling that Seun banned me on your recommendation? My first ban ever was by you for a week. Immediately I came back from banishment, I was banned permanently by Seun. Atheists dont really believe in coincidences.

maclatunji:

Oh please! You have to trust my judgement as moderator. I have hidden the post and will not show it here. Logicboy has to understand that his posting here's a privilege not a right and apply due discretion. I may entertain no further questions on this matter. I am being lenient by even allowing his new monicker.

You have no right to ban 'Cheers01'. There are other thread appropriate for new muslim-to-be converts that you could have posted the link to, instead of encouraging further talks about 'dawar' in order to further derail an already derailed topic. What you did is nothing less of a despotic moderator.

Cheers01:
Ah Fellis! Great answer.

You sound like a skeptic. grin grin grin grin

What is so great about his/her answer? You don't even sound like the logicboy whose analytical approach I usually savour. You don't even seem to know the meaning of a 'skeptic'. How can't you see where 'fellis' argument crumbles on itself. You are there commending him. I think you somehow deserve the banning. You could have won this thread of yours but instead you allowed it to be hijacked like 911, only to plunged back at you by getting banned on your own thread. Let me show you 'a way' of how you ought to have answered Felix The Cat.

fellis: This topic wasn't deleted?
Anyway my opinion: Religion thrives largely on faith not logic so it would not be right to apply logic alone when answering a question like this.
According to religion, omnipotence is something that can only be applied to a Creator that lives in a realm that is greater than the earthly realm. As a result of this, the explanation of omnipotence or the definition of omnipotence would be different/much greater in the realm in which the Creator lives.
Understanding what omnipotence truly means is likely to be limited to those of us in a world in which intellectual processes are limited and not as great as what is taught by religions, to exist in the higher realms.
So my opinion is that we can only grasp part of the real meaning of omnipotence since we live in a world where it is not possible.

Heh! Heh! You fellis think you made sense abi? Anyway you tried sha! I'll give you 2/10 and until you come up with something better kindly take a look at the bolded^^^

According to your argument, you asserted that the concept of omnipotence is only entitled to a creator who "lives in a realm that is greater than the earthly realm”...okay agreed....but wasn't allah or yaweh credited with the creation of the world(earth)? So if he has the capacity to create an earthly realm which is lesser to the realm he lives in, then why can't he create such a rock that he can't move/lift in a lesser realm he created? I hope you realise the obvious ïllogic 'Cheers01' was unable to detect in your response, because he was too perplexed by your 'perspective' to the issue. I have thought about the omnipotent paradox so deep that it can't be self-resolved. Its an epitome of a contradiction.

Cheers01:
Can Allah create a substance that he can not destroy?

Even common men have created certain chemical compounds that can't be destroyed.

Cheers01:
Can Allah create a god being stronger than hinmself?

If he can, then he is not a God, but if he can't then wouldn't make him better than the scientists who created Doomsday! Doomsday killed his creators and yet they made him.

^Errrr "brilliant judge" Muslims cannot be prevented from posting in their own section on any thread. This is a Muslim enclave within Nairaland. Logicboy seems to be doing a "great job" of advertising Islam, so much so that people find his thread attractive to post comments on to ask about our religion . He has two, sorry three options:

1. Ignore this section.

2. Get used to and abide by the rules and

3. Continue to have a hard time with me.

He is a very slow learner indeed.

I am not a slow learner. I just dont give up. I'm like Naruto, I grow on people. You might not like me now but you will later on. Why? Because I am a very open/honest person. Whatever I do, I do it for a clear reason. grin (ask Fellis about Naruto if you dont understand the reference)


Maclatunji, giving me a hard time only works to my advantage. Every time you ban me, you make me more motivated to double up on my actions. Furthermore, are you noticing that it is getting harder and harder for you to ban me without some backlash from others? Remember when your power was unquestioned? Everytime you ban me, I keep finding innovative ways to criticize islam. That is the way of the Hidden leaf ninja.....erm....sorry....too much Naruto reference!

Love is blind! My love for fellis blinded me, it weakened me! How could I criticize a muslimah so pure, so pretty...........


Okay, back to serious business. Fellis already accepted that faith and logic are two very different things. That was enough for me. My question was based on logic and a faithful person wouldnt see the problem with omnipotence.



ghostofsparta:

If he can, then he is not a God, but if he can't then wouldn't make him better than the scientists who created Doomsday! Doomsday killed his creators and yet they made him.


Yep, that was my argument in a nutshell. As for the indestructible compounds, scientists might find a way to destroy them, so lets be careful.

If you had settled down to read that post, you would probably have seen the first part of my explanation where I wrote that it can be explained in a religious/faith based manner. You were talking about how you have thought of the omnipotence paradox and how it can never permit omnipotence in a logical sense. Do you think I don't know that? Do you think I came across the omnipotence paradox for the first time on this thread?
Thank you for rating my answer 2/10, I also rate your ability to comprehend half over ten.

See, me I'm someone with an acute logic mindset, just as I once find it difficult to understand some seemingly illogical topics/concepts in mathematics is so I find most things in the Bible and Quran illogical. To me..Calculus requires deep logic, patience and intellect to grasp, Bible which I have always find it hard to grasp, but pains me when others can relate to it and not me, then I realise Oh! Some are following the Joneses by merely just accepting it as the "word of God" and not really trying to understudy it like I once wanted to in order to get inspired as so many had claimed, while the other religious packs used faith - which is believing in things without intellectual logic and or proof/evidence. I can't believe someone who isn't even an alchemist turned water to wine and the other who isn't a giga-titan did something relating to the moon and a sword because it doesn't process with my own logic and rationale, but I would believe that someone can't be hurt after getting hit by a bullet because that is African supernaturality called juju or jazz which some of us but not everyone have witnessed which is what drives my interested to unravel the advanced Yoruba/African sci-tech behind it so as to show the whole world we've got something unique....no be oyimbo to dey do everything na.

Don't you know that the abrahamic deities are nothing but pure semitic conception shoved down the black man's throats by the Europeans and Arab Fulanis who brought it, while your own indigenous deities such as Ayilala or Amadioha or Oguun which aren't conception but confirmed energies known to work but condemned by your slave masters and here you all are today defending another man's conception, even killing for it, look at Nigeria today despite how overtly religious everyone is. I started a thread about - would Nigeria be better off if our so called leaders were to swear by our traditional deities and from the comments I studied it re-confirmed my thoughts that many Nigerians know more about the Jewish Yaweh/Jeovah and the Arab's Allah than their own ancestral deities which have re-painted to them to mean something satanic and demonic. Why is it that If you violate or challenge any of the native deities, it would defend itself without needing any fanatic or extremist or Mutalab or Anders or knights crusaders or desert jihadists to defend it. If I desecrate any of the so called Holy Books, the christians would persecute me today or burn me as an heretic back then, while their islamic partner in crime would pronounce a fatua on me demanding for my head as punishment for violating allah. Point is - why not leave your Yaweh and Allah to fight for himself rather than killing peeps because of a Denmark drawing. Bokoharam fighting for Allah. Etc.

1) I did not call you crazy. I asked if you were.

2)You know why fellis challeneged Maclatunji for banning Cheers01? Because I told her in that other thread about Mac's tyranny. I told her that no muslim complains when Mac wrongly bans someone. My statement came to pass with the banning of Cheers01. Even LagosShia was supporting MAC (hypocritically, he was begging for support after Mac banned his Shia conspiracy azz).

3) From number 2, I opened that thread to challenge Mac. When I first opened it in the Islam section, it was deleted. That thread was not reporting, it was asking for justice. So, I opened the same thread in the christian section which was more exposing on Maclatunji's tyranny.

4) LagosShia can not teach me anything. I can see through his shilling for Iran. Shia conspiracy nonsense

Like I said logic and fate are completely different. One can only settle for one not toggle in between the two. If you ask me, faith is a lazy excuse not to apply the rigorous intellect required by logic.

You guessed wrong, I was born into a family of liberal minded folks.

Re: A Difficult Question About Allah by Sweetnecta: 1:25pm On Jul 25, 2012
my only response to this questioner is if he can make a 3 sided perfect circle? if he can not then he should look at his question and the reasoning behind it is lacking "good" logic. Allah has made His Presence manifested in each of us even if we ignore everything around us.

While we age and become frail and wither away for another generation to replace us in strength, wisdom and logical knowledge, Allah is opposite He does not age, wither, frail away, replaced by another, etc. He is perfect from before the beginning and shall be so even after the ending. There is no diminishing in Him or about Him.

Just like He said that it does not befit the Majesty of God to have a son, so it does not befit Him to engage in manual labor like in the "moving of a rock!" Ford motors does not create a vehicle that can not be driven. Everything that is designed by a designer must be from the knowledge of the designer, including the weakness[es] of what was designed.

It is impossible for God to die, etc. In the same vein, it is impossible that God is in the realm of those who can not control everything. We call those with limitation[s], creations. It does not befit God to behave like creation who can not create anything, can not move anything if God does not want them to.
