KingEbukasBlog: But then, I could doubt that the Bible is really legit. I do believe it went through a lot of intentional human alteration. So Using Bible passages wouldn't actually be the best way to convince me. I can bring evidence , reason and tenable arguments to support the existence of God which I know you can't refute (no one has ever refuted them though ) and win your cash . Should we try itYes we should. . It's just that I don't have the money to reward you with loll. Would an acknowledgment that you are one of the smartest people I've come across do? Well the relationship with Christ is a personal one . Some have witnessed many encounters with a Christophany (the appearance of Christ ), so they can say based on their experience that Christ is indeed alive . well yes I know this. I used to wish I'd be one of these people so I could finally be sure of something lol. But how exactly do the words of people make it a fact? I used to strongly believe that I felt christ in me, like so many people do/did. I Never had the chance of actually seeing him. How can you convince me that these people were not lying, did not hallucinate, and actually told the truth? If I were close-minded , I wont have been willing to put the challenge up to talk of doling out cash to anyone who wins itThis makes sense, but you could have also done it with a lot of sarcasm, you understand lol . "Oya nau, you think you atheists are smart, comman collect my money" (you knew they won't lol). You doing this doesn't necesarilly make me feel you are open-minded. But your reply to me just did. Maybe I perceived an attitude in your previous comments because tyou simply did not like the way some people presented their points. See dear , I deal with facts , raw facts . Not farce . Looking at history and the present theists have always been the smartest and with the best contributions to the progress of mankind . I can go on and on and on with the names of the greatest minds who were theists and the present ones who have extremely high IQs . Its all been theists . Well, looking at Bill Gates and the salaries of some footballers, I can state as a fact, that school drop-outs are the richest people on earth. Am I wrong? Eistein was a Theist, very intelligent (fact), had a very high IQ(fact and fact). But how many people have lived on this earth? we've had billions (fact) You can correctly tell me that the dumbest person to ever live was/is an atheist (not a fact) You can correctly tell me the the top 1 billion most stupid people were mostly atheists or that the top 5 billion smartest people were theists? You really can't do this. Just because A lot of inventors and notable alumni were theist doesn't give you the world-wide statitistic of smart/dumb- theist/atheist people. That was way too general to ever be accurate. There are intelligent atheists but they are very few and sometimes intelligent people have silly and idiotic beliefs .100 percent True. But the same goes for Christians. Have we not seen the news? women sleeping with pastors because they want a miracle from God! Who do you say I am ? I hope that was a joke because I found it really funny lol. I say you're christian. Just didn't want to make a loud assumption. |

Ranchhoddas:the challenge didn't come up an hour ago, maybe the op doesn't have all the time in the world. Hence the challenge expires after a while. Even without the monetary incentive, I see no reason why the atheist shouldn't' want to clarify the position of the op (and all following) since that's the lie they claim brought them to the RELIGION SECTION. Besides, quite a number of atheists have seen it very early. I believe the rules by the op are clear enough for any that is willing. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

KingEbukasBlog: Which lies? There are noticeable challenges to the identification of Yeshu as Jesus. The two individuals often cited as being representations of Jesus are Yeshu ben Pandera/ben Pappos, and Yeshu the Pharisee. The Talmud mentions Yeshu ben Pandera's stepfather, Pappos ben Yehuda, as being among those martyred with Rabbi Akiva,[3] who was executed at the climax of the Bar Kokhba revolt in 135 CE.[4][5] Furthermore, Yeshu the Pharisee is described as being a student of the second-century BCE nasi Joshua ben Perachiah, as well as being among the exiled Pharisees returning to Israel following their persecution[6][7] by John Hyrcanus.[8] These events would place the lifetime of either Yeshu decades before, or decades after, the birth and death of Jesus.[9][10] The first Christian censorship of the Talmud happened in the year 521.[11] However, far better documented censorship began during the disputations of the Middle Ages. Advocates for the Catholic Church alleged that the Talmud contained blasphemous references to Jesus and his mother, Mary. Jewish apologists during the disputations said there were no references to Jesus in the Talmud, and claimed Joshua and its derivations was a common Jewish name, that they referred to other individuals. The disputations led to many of the references being removed (censored) from subsequent editions of the Talmud. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_in_the_Talmud |

@KingEbukasBlog It's like I forgot what I really came here for. I can't make arguments so I just had some questions I wanted to ask you. I really doubt you can answer them all. Well you can, but prolly not without thinking you're making a mistake, or directly, or refering to a bible passage (though I question the Bible). I've tried asking other Christians, but I think they "run away", like they don't have answers. I actually have a lot of these questions. If someone had given me satisfying answers, I honestly would have remained a really strong christian. My dad, for example, told me that the best thing to do would be to not ask questions. That sounded very fishy But that way I could keep my faith. If I'm right and you cannot answer my questions tho, that would be like me winning your challenge. |

sonofthunder:Very true ! The money is making the Low-level unregistered Atheists very nervous. Did you notice, the King gave a smart example of "Satire" and it almost shut this Thread down. So I asked my unregistered Motor mechanic who happens to also be an unregistered Atheist, what is satire? and without blinking he replied, "it is a spare Tire." I dont know what to make of it. It is the forth time that I returned to him with the same problem. |

sonofthunder:Yes indeed ! These Low-Level unregistered Atheists have managed to liberate me from many doubts I had about the existence of God. It is from atheists that I indirectly learned the startling difference between spiritual tuition and secular tuition. The few High-Level Atheists are acutely aware of this bonus to believers. Hence the shocking confusion among the wannabe atheists when they see the biggest stadiums constantly filled to the brim with new believers in God. Why do you think Atheists will never hire even the smallest stadium ? It is because one hour into the worship of No-god, the empty stadium is proof that their No- god is inferior. I know that I can prove that No-god is real by simply using one small stadium. |

budaatum:Guh ! Your link actually point out a dreadful social nightmare. It also says, "Many who are familiar with the socio-political workings of Finland point to the Lutheran Evangelical Church’s refusal to marry same-sex couples as the rallying point to pass The Richard Dawkins Act. Same-sex marriage just became legal in Finland, making it the last Scandinavian country to recognize that homosexuals are real people with feelings and such. One man having sex with another man in Holy matrimony is no joke Sir. After all his passionate labour, he becomes depressed because he remains childless. If they adopt a child, the poor child will be asked in class who is your mother ? What will the reaction of the class be if they hear her say, "My mothers name is John, she has a large beard with two dingalings and a polony. What reaction do children have when they see two women having sex ? Oh, meet my father, his name is Mary. He sits on the toilet when when he pee. |

Modo9:Have you heard about the dude that allegedly proved that No-god is alive? He watched as the worlds largest stadiums are filled to capacity with thousands worshiping outside and millions tuned in. He always said there is No-god so he set out to prove it. He advertised the Atheist revival. He hired the smallest stadium. only 95 worshipers attended. They sang worship songs and praised prophet Richard Dawkins for blessing their lives and making No-god known to them. It is alleged that he said after the very successful revival that their is No-god, but it is an inferior god who only make material things. |

budaatum:After a long holiday I came back to see this groundbreaking thread hosted by a man of good character, he is a highly esteemed Nairalander, Kingebukasblog. Get a group of good men together, and they will change their school, their campus, and the world. Every man is a work in progress, but here are 30 characteristics of a good guy. Any man can grow and become: He has integrity and character: simply put, a good guy is less talk and more action. This is what I see in the OP, he is a man of superior action. “character" was a key word in the vocabulary of Englishmen and Americans,” and men were spoken of as having strong or weak character, good or bad character, a great deal of character or no character at all. Young people were encouraged to cultivate real character, high character or good character. BudaAtum, why this character assassination of the King? 1 Like 1 Share |

ScienceWatch: I'm neither true atheiist nor true theist (christian). I respect both paths and I'm 100 % sure that one is right, I just can't tell which. I guess that makes neutral? I can fight for both sides lol so I might just be confused loll .Whatever, I believe I am not biased. This no-god experiment really makes no sense. Theists never personified their non-belief in God as "No-god", if they do that, well I've never heard of it. So why waste their time coming to worship a "No-God"? There are even more stupid and annoying examples out there, where people definitely only wanted to do something funny. An example is this question you might have seen before now: "Can God make a stone so heavy he can't lift it?" . Now answer that correctly and I'd change my thinking about the no-god story. Also, there are better stories or analogies Christians have made to support their belief. An Example you also might have seen: A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation and talked about so many things and various subjects. When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: I don’t believe that God exists. Why do you say that? asked the customer. Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn’t exist. Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain. I can’t imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things. The customer thought for a moment, but didn’t respond because he didn’t want to start an argument. The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and unkempt. The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber: You know what? Barbers do not exist. How can you say that? asked the surprised barber. I am here, and I am a barber. And I just worked on you! No! the customer exclaimed. Barbers don’t exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside. Ah, but barbers DO exist! That’s what happens when people do not come to me. Exactly! affirmed the customer. That’s the point! God, too, DOES exist! Because people do not look to God for help is why there’s so much pain and suffering in the world. The author of this spiritual story is unknown and greatly appreciated. If you know who wrote this, or can provide a source that I can cite then please contact me and let me know! Also, if you decide to reprint this story on your website, you do not need to include this author biography box… please just link back to http://www.Spiritual-Short-Stories.com (I just copied and pasted so the last line gives the link) My point is that I think the No-god story is....dumb, invalid. 1 Like 1 Share |
