Dapo777:What I'm trying to say sir, is that the negligence of the contractors that tragically led to the collapse of the structure could have been avoided . what happened to the church building could happen to a w/hore house or a strip club. the key words here is HUMAN ERROR. calling me a lunatic won't change this fact. God is not mocked, what ever a man sows that shall he reap. RIP to the dead. |

Dapo777: it is not God duty's to Prevent buildings from collapsing , it is man's duty. what make you think that a church building with a faulty foundation cannot collapse because it is use for worship?, yes God is not powerful enough to prevent a substandard building whose design and specification runs foul to lay down rules and regulations from collapsing. God has nothing to do with the tragedy. |

plaetton:To the frank with you, this statement makes little sense. You are not telling me how the actions of one man suggest the extermination of some reality but simply appealing to easy emotions. Come with something better because the above says nothing rational enough for any generalization. |

Reyginus:Yes of course. Take pharmaceutical drugs for example. Pharmaceutical companies formulate and are supposed put new drugs, no matter how potentially efficacious, to vigorous levels of methodical testing before the drug is approved for safety and general distribution to the public. Once in a while we get cases where a particular drug, formulated for the treatment of one ailment, is found to cause more serous ailments. In these cases, the drug is immediately withdrawn from the market. In other words, the drug, even with hyped potentials, is allowed to die. It only takes one or a few cases of fatality to pull a dangerous drug off the market. So in this analogous situation , since the belief in God's protection has been found to have zero efficacy in protecting people from dasasters and calamities, and also has been documented to have very adverse side effects( in this case, a horrific death ) to the consumers of this god drug, would you, or should members of the public be encouraged to continue to consume this non efficacious and potentially hazardous god drug? 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Reyginus: what irrational deductions? Advising you stop using a tested and debunked drug that's destroying your common sense? Only a madman would behave like this. Perhaps the damage in his common sense caused by this drug is too chronic to be cured. And I don't wanna believe you are this man... Think! 1 Like |

plaetton:You still have yet to justify your earlier assertion. Let me help you with your analogy. Our pharmaceutical company on detection of a drug complicating even more the original complications, withdrew the the ones in the market not because they have been prooved to be also dangerous nor otherwise but because they do not know how they will react with the human system. I will explain further. The reason for withdrawing the other ones already in the market is not because they are dangerous but because they also may be, and to help their business, they had to let the drug die a natural death. If you were able to read between the lines, you'd have seen that the same way demanding the retraction of the drugs does not entail bad drugs suggesting the death of God because of a bad product of his doesn't entail a dead God. Try to pay attention to your analogy. A more honest analogy would have been with a company known for manufacturing fake drugs and other companies in the market doing a good job. |

Reyginus: Lol. Your illustration doesn't fit in the argument. It only favors your view. The drug illustration is useful as it gives a clear analogy of the use of God. You discard a drug when you notice it doesn't work for what you deem it ought to work for. You see it as incompatible with your illness. Same thing goes with God. When you use Him and doesn't work, He's not compatible with the problem, and He needs to be discarded. But when you persist in the use of the same drug, your only doing more harm to yourself. 2 Likes |

Re: Synagogue Tragedy: The Obituary Of God Or The Obituary Of Common Sense? by Nobody: 8:42pm On Nov 07, 2014 |
Pr0ton:Lol. Let me follow your suggestion like I followed plaetton's. Do you discard every type of a particular drug in the market when you notice that the one you bought is fake? As in, would you push for the destruction of Paracetamol in the market because a particular brand of Paracetamol you bought doesn't work for you? |

Reyginus:Correction. We are talking here about god, the cure-all drug. Let me give you another drug example. Let's say that are being persuaded to buy this drug being sold and promoted as being able able to cure an entire host of deadly diseases, as well being used for inoculation against measles. But before you buy the drug , you witness right before you that people who had already used the drug were getting measles at an alarming rate. Some had even contracted other diseases that ensured a very painful and agonising death. So, would you be insane enough to go ahead with taking this drug, or would you, your family and your friends run far far away from it? If the drug doesn't cure or help prevent any illness, should that drug not be allowed to die, and company allowed to go bankrupt? Pls answer, and stop your usual rigmarole. |

Thugnificent: Then he abandoned them. That's not responsible, is it? So why are you blaming this solely on man? Especially considering your version of the creator, which is omnixx.x? Let's see, I create an earthquake, (proxy or no even,) it kills a couple of hapless folk. I now bear no responsibility? 2 Likes |
