adepeter2027:No sir. You are the one who sounds absurd, if you believe that the God who created heaven, earth, the air and sea, is the one who lacks powers. If you look at all animals, plants, and natural beings, you would realise that there is an infinite intelligence at work and it is the handwork of a Master Craftsman - GOD. Tell me, how did air come into existence? |

MadCow1:I dont like argueing religion but am moved to respond to your extremism. You want an empirical justification to prove the existence of a super sensible existent. Bro, am sure dats almost impossible, but nevertheless the lack of empirical fact does not deny God's existence. I want to you answer my question, Do you have a mind? |

This is nothing but an overt mockery of people who have died in airplane crashes. This is also a derision of their relatives, family members and friends who bereaved them in the aftermath of that agonising moment. Those children who died in the Sosoliso air-crash were more innocent than this charlatan. It's unarguable – they were prepubescent children. Did Oyedepo's "God" not think them worthy of salvation? To the rational and observant mind, it is evident that the universe is governed largely by chance. It is like a lawcourt where victory is awarded not based on how logically sound the arguments are, but on the stochastic roll of an impersonal dice. There is no conscious intelligence behind the universe. And even if there were–as some intricacies of Nature seem to suggest–then we can with infallible precision tell that this intelligence is highly unemotional and dispassionate i.e. it is not Santa Claus who rewards those who have been good; neither does it allot comeuppance to those who have been bad. It just doesn't care. Since the universe is ruled by chance (and sometimes by the laws of cause-and-effect), people like Adolf Hitler–who's the stereotypical bad guy–may live up to a hundred years, be insensibly wealthy, and live a perfectly healthy life; whilst people like Mahatma Ghandi–stereotypical goody-two-shoes–may live a relatively short life, suffer a nagging tuberculosis for many years, and then die painfully by crucifixion. The point is, the universe is not fair and since neccessity is the mother of all inventions, then it's no wonder that we, humans, so as not to feel completely helpless to the Universe's irrational vagaries and also in an act of defiant rebelllion against her illogicalities have dreamt up a protective "overman" (as Nietzsche would say), an epitome of fairness, and an entity which would help in lending some rigid order to the Universe's entropy. To take it a step further, these entities of divinity which our artistic minds have dreamt up have from years of indoctrination successfully wormed themselves into the seat of our collective consciousness so that we are unable to clearly distinguish between our "mental creations" and observable reality. This is my theory of the whole thing. Frankly–and I say this with the gusto of one who in a distant lifetime ago once cut the quintessential religious figure–anyone who invests indiscriminate belief in a "God" or holds any religion to be as absolute as the law of gravity, ought to be treated for mental illness. Religion–when it's not tempered–is a mental disorder. God(s) is only an "idea"–favourable sometimes (when it's used to fight social injustice and generally to better humanity), and unfavourable sometimes (when it's used to justify pogroms and terrorism, and when it antagonises rationalism, thereby stunting progress). ... Pastor Oyedepoo should be ashamed of himself. And, what is this crude nonsense? Pastors junketing about in private jets, eating the costiest meals, wearing the most fashionable and expensive dresses, living in majestic castles and all that bourgeious luxury. None of these is bad per se, but when it's done by conning the poor masses–who are mostly ignorant and gullible, and who more oft than not prefer to be ignorant and gullible–then it becomes a problem. I am willing to tolerate religion in so far it's geared towards selfless humanitarianism (the exploits of Mother Theresa and the likes), but when it becomes a rip-off, a racketeer–which is pretty much what obtains today–then it becomes a thorn in the flesh of the rational mind and the society which wishes to progress. 6 Likes 5 Shares |

MightySparrow: I know he use only his G550 and rents the rest out so I know what jet he was in and where they park it OK |

Why are they all comparing this with titanic? |

MightySparrow: So which jet/plane was he referring to? |

Re: God Saved Oyedepo From Plane Crash by CeterisXVII: 3:58pm On Oct 07, 2017 |
Lomprico2:Because the same way they are saying the G550 jet is the safest plane in the air, was the same way they said the Titanic was unsinkable. |

Lomprico2:Technological advancement is not a guarantee against disaster. Kindly update your knowledge sir. Hurricane Irma swept away some of the most technological equipment in different parts of America. |

CeoNewshelm: Con man!!! Give credit to whom credit is due. The pilots managed the crisis well (you may then want to add "with the help of God" ). God did not land the plane; the pilots did. |

We thank God for that but who will save you from hell crash for you are a slave in the house of the Father and a slave does not abide in the house forever but a son does. And soon, the Lord will come and assign you your portion with the wicked in blackness of darkness forever, and all the hypocrisy and mockery will end. 1 Like |

Re: God Saved Oyedepo From Plane Crash by CeterisXVII: 4:10pm On Oct 07, 2017 |
Lomprico2:Till date, none from what I have heard. But we cannot tell what would happen tomorrow. The builders of the Titanic said it would never sink when it was launched. We all know what happened after it set sail. Nothing that is man-made is immune from crashing. |

CeterisXVII: Then its d safest modafuking jet out there. I dont wanna hear any shìt about titanic again! There was only one titanic, it sank on its first test run. There are many G550, NONE has crashed! |

SalamRushdie:You don't need to expose your ignorance unnecessarily please! Has he mentioned himself saving the day? He said God did. If Titanic could have such a huge crash and sunk, what's G550? You're only saying God can't stop G550 from crashing, because it couldn't have crashed at all. Isn't what you're singing without knowing? 1 Like |

NothingDoMe: I am not saying it cant crash but they are very well built and non has crashed till date and if it does ever crashed it will be human error or something intentional and not bad weather , I am very sure bad weather can Never bring a G550 down as it will outrun and out climb any Weather system ..that plane is very solid 1 Like |

SalamRushdie: Gbam! I have nothing against the man that said he had a miracle at all. Am just annoyed that some people will be comparing the technology of the 1920s-30s with what we have today just to defend their pastor. It sound really stupid and its annoying! 1 Like |
