Panic On London Train After Man Reads Passages From The Bible by Aldebaran(m): 6:21pm On Oct 02, 2017 |
[img]http:///a/img924/909/P8WLvs.jpg[/img] Panicked passengers forced their way out of their rush hour train after a man read out Bible passages in the carriage. The train was just outside Wimbledon at around 8.30am, when the man started reading out phrases such as ‘death is not the end’. Commuters became scared, and started trying to get out of the carriage as quickly as possible. As the passengers forced open the doors and climbed frantically onto the tracks, the rail power lines were cut. The train was travelling from Shepperton to Waterloo, one of London’s busiest commuter lines. Cops,transport police here to meet him, all very calm, police shake his hand, take him to chat. Some people offer to be witness for him Ian, who was on the train, tweeted that the man’s Bible-reading caused a ‘crush’ and a ‘commotion’. He said that someone asked the man to stop speaking ‘as he was scaring people’, after which ‘the guy stopped and stood there with his head down’. Other passengers praised a guard, who apparently dealt with the situation with ‘compassion, restraint and bravery’. A Network Rail spokesman said: ‘Passengers self-evacuated off a train and on to the tracks at Wimbledon this morning after a passenger incident. ‘British Transport Police are investigating and there were no injuries to passengers or staff. ‘This has caused significant delays to services in and out of Waterloo that will continue for the rest of the morning. ‘A signal failure at Waterloo also caused some earlier disruption to trains – this was resolved by 0815. We apologise for delays to journeys this morning and ask passengers to please check before they travel.’ A British Transport Police spokesperson told Metro.co.uk: ‘We were called at 8.31am today to Wimbledon after reports of a disturbance on a train to Waterloo. Passengers evacuated themselves onto the tracks. ‘BTP attended and are carrying out enquiries at present. No one was injured and no arrests have been made.’ http://metro.co.uk/2017/10/02/panic-on-london-train-after-man-reads-passages-from-the-bible-6971519/ 4 Likes 1 Share

whitebeard: Na we here know Bible like that o. Most whites have never opened it to read as they believe its fiction. I guess the panic must have been because Islamist terrorists always recite parts of the Qoran before committin' atrocities so they must have thought somethin' bad was about to happen once the dude was done readin' his horrifyin' passages. My guess tho... Lol. 209 Likes 10 Shares |

Nigerian society is too tainted with religious extremism for even the highly educated to function properly. If you are highly educated and you still believe Jesus walked on water/rose from the dead or Muhammed was a peaceful human being - then your education has failed you. The purpose of education is to promote awareness/consciousness. That's why if you meet the top scientists/intellectuals in the world, they tend to exude a zen like (or yogi like) quality. One possible reason for this is that they have reached a point were they are fully convinced that their ignorance far outweighs their knowledge. Only arrogant people say things like: "There is God." or "There is no God." The truth of the matter is nobody knows. And I mean NOBODY. Look at all the problems we have created in Nigeria because of people who are "absolutely sure" of the existence of a sky Daddy - Boko Haram, killing of twins; prosperity gospel aka spiritual corruption; killing of 'witches'; etc. Yet, the most significant consequence of our extreme religious belief is that Nigeria is a country of 180 million people, the vast majority of whom are AWAITING the end of the world. If you believe the world is coming to an end, why would you be FULLY committed to make your society a better place? Most Nigerians believe that this world does not matter because they are gonna START A NEW LIFE WITH THEIR SKY DADDY after the world ENDS. This is one of the most fundamental reason behind Nigeria's underdevelopment. So, until a sizable number of Nigerians are committed to creating HEAVEN on this Nigerian EARTH, rather than awaiting some sky Daddy to descend from the sky and save us, corruption and underdevelopment continues to no end. 75 Likes 20 Shares |

ChineseBuggati3: There is enough blame to go around. The Christian crusades were perpetrated by bible totting Christians. The Spanish Inquisition was also committed by Christians. Now, Islamic terror is prominent but lets not forget history. 79 Likes 16 Shares |

FisifunKododada:Can you correlate the Spanish inquisition to the instructions of Jesus Or can you correlate crusades(even though it was a defensive war) with the instructions of Jesus or the first Christians on earth Whatever is not inspired by Jesus or the Apostle as nothing to do with Christianity. On the other hand Islamic terror is inspired by the words and deeds of mohammed. 42 Likes 4 Shares |
