urahara: Yes you were confusing It with panentheism.
Yes humans , cockroaches are part of the god state.
According to pantheism , the universe has many features of anthromorphic gods such as power , awe , beauty and mystery.the universe is worthy of reverence ( not worship , but admiration ).
The universe has no mind.
It is not vengeful.
It does not demand worship , etc.
Hmm, this does not sound right. If that be the case then i'm also a pantheist.
Can you be a little more clear on your explanation. Are you a pantheist?
cao: My programming skills are terrible, I never want to see any high level programming language again. I could be considered a techie, even if I'm too cheap to truly be one.
No need to cringe, we like new folks, especially when they know what they're talking about.
Hmm, well a warm welcome to me then.
Thegamingorca: I also happened to stumbled upon here by chance.
Been trapped here ever since tho
Let me see how well I can contribute to the section too.
Emmanystone: Mr Man, NK is an Atheist Nation and Atheist Nations have been killing people for ages for their religion.
Maybe i should call KingEbukasblog to help us with the stats.
Maybe you should find out how North Korean Christians are fairing.
Apparently you're are not aware of the state of NK for consulting Ebuka. Most people in NK are not aware of the state of the western world, tourists that go there and post their adventure on Youtube are restricted on places to go or things to do and when they engage few NKs, it's like talking to an alien. My point was not at the government of north korea, even muslims have issues, there is only 1 mosque there and it was built for officials of the iran embassy, so the Government(KIM) is not what i'm talking about, my point is that some people in north korea and even some other parts of the world are not aware of Jesus, are they therefore enemies of Jesus? I can't believe i have to say the same thing thrice na wa oo.
And Adam is a Cow?
Isn't it psychopathic for parents to punish unborn grandchildren for what their son or daughter did?
No, Adam was not deceived. Eve was. Adam was stupid. And men are still stupid today over women.
Are you a woman? Just asking...
No, reason is, the cutting of Marcus's ear wasn't an affliction
What is this guy saying? An affliction is simply a state of pain.
, it was an act of violence perpetrated by Jesus' servant and Jesus is totally against violence.
Many afflictions are caused by violence, just like Jesus' servants caused in the old testament.
If you remember correctly, that man or the demons inside of him, called the attention of Jesus first. If he had kept quiet, the Master would have simply passed on. lolzzzzz, this guy, keep gathering straws to grab.
Something is wrong with you sha... See who is talking about gathering straws. Here's your statement:
Even Jesus could not heal a man without seeking the man's consent first.
Lol, get your facts right next time.
Yes, am okay, are you?
Hmm, i think i am.
I have made a lot of statements, which one are you referring to?
This one:
Any Christian who fight Boko Haram or Isis is doing so out of ignorance. Scriptures must be fulfilled.
Going with this, then Goodluck Jonathan was wrong for trying to fight Boko Haram, not so?
Doing God's Will is obeying the Scriptures. And the Scriptures says again and again that as Christst followers the people of the world shall hate us, persecute and kill us becos of our beliefs in Him.
We are to rejoice in our tribulations. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also... Romans:5:3
We receive our Crowns on the other side, not here. So, the enemy can kill us thinking he is prevailing, in truth, he is not. Although, he succeeds in rattling the uninformed and ignorant. When Christians get killed everywhere, the ignorant expects God to stop him, when he is not stopped, they fall off claiming God doesn't care. Sagan's target is the ignorant.
Boko Haram and all those killing Christians are tools in satan hand, when he is done with them, they'll be dropped to face judgement for themselves.
Let me skip these.
Lol. Oh yeah? You mean YHWH put satan up to his challenge against Himself?
You mean God is happy seeing man foolishly destroying himself by himself in allowing satan use him to do what will eventually destroy him?
This is very Smart.
This is actually very very coherent if God is Omniscient, unless you can prove otherwise.
cao: Yes. Granted, you might actually enjoy video games, but you simply don't play (either as much as you'd like or at all)... Let me stop now, before I start talking about every possible scenario about why you're not much of a gamer.
*chuckle* Ok ooo. I actually have not played any video game this year. Can't remember the last time i did. Wait i watched your videos, does that count?
But i've played Far Cry, Mortal Kombat, GTA, Fifa, Age Of Wonders, that's all i can remember for now.
Let me see if i would be inspired to game. Just like Programming section, the gaming section is another island in NL, i wonder how many people know about it.
hopefulLandlord: I thought I was the only one, I like debating those guys cuz they'll acknowledge when someone gives a good point rather than desperately running around it; still remember the time I debated Kilo4sure on 'religion as a problem" or similar topic and damn, I was impressed by his style and the fact that he doesn't troll; I once debated honouhim about Omniscience-Freewill paradox and after he got our points and rebuttals, he acknowledged we have good points and opened a dedicated thread on it asking Christians if Freewill isn't paradoxical if god is omniscient, he earned my respect that day
Ya, i remember those threads. I missed those guys, including lordnicklaus...
It's just annoying talking to the likes of the guy above, especially Uncle felixomor .
PastorAIO: What Truthislight and jman need is a Crisis of Conscience. Just like Raymond Franz.
Who's Raymond Franz? Ray Franz was a Jehovah's witness that rose to the point of becoming a member of the Governing Council. The Governing council is the handful of men that control the entire lives of all the JWs all over the world. Then his conscience pricked him and he exposed the organisation.
One thing that he said and can be witness clearly on this thread is that Their man made rules took precedence over the bible.
Of course this problem is not only the JWs. You can even find it with the pentecostals as has recently been exposed with this Tithing brouhaha whereby on realising that the bible doesn't support their tithing practice they are so quick to throw the bible in the gutter.
anyway, check out some of what Raymond Franz has to say:
Emmanystone: First it was Buddhists, now it's North Korea. Again, if you are not with us, you are against us.
Isn't North Korea killing people for their faith?
That's the government of NK(Kim) not North Koreans, and when last did you hear of killing for religion there. Most North Koreans are not aware of what's going on in the outside world and are only deluded by Kim's lies, are ther enemies of your God too? This was my point Mr. Man.
The reason is, Man willingly gave away what was given to him initially in Eden, now if he wants those things back, he must also Willingly come asking for those things.
"Man", how did "Man" give away anything? Is that not Adam's wahala?
He Willingly went away, now if he wants back in, he must be willing to come back.
God casted him out. He was decieved. Your God is Omniscient. Therefore he set Adam up.
When Jesus met a man who had been crippled for 38years, He knew how long that man had been afflicted, he didn't just say to the man, be healed, He asked him " Will you be made whole?", Will you like to be healed? Even Jesus could not heal a man without seeking the man's consent first.
When Peter cut off the ear of the Soldier that night, did Jesus ask for his permission to be healed? When the demon possessed man in Gadarenes was healed, did Jesus ask for his permission?
It appears you didn't read the Rev. 6:9-11 i posted. Any Christian who fight Boko Haram or Isis is doing so out of ignorance. Scriptures must be fulfilled.
Wowwww Are you okay? KingEbuKasBlog what do you have to say about this,damn now i'm missing honourhim kilo4sure and co.
Note this, it's not God's Will that Christians be killed the way they are being killes, but because satan is raging against the Lord's Chosen and since the dead of the saints is not really dead, God allows satan to feel he is having his way. Lol.
How can you make that statement up there and come with this. If Christians are to accept Boko Haram and doing otherwise is out of ignorance, isn't that obeying God's will. See how you're talking like you know more than satan that has "existed before the earth was created " Satan's work is not out of God's Omniscience, therefore he orchestrated it.
Behead me here and i get clothed with a white garment in another realm, i'll take a sit waiting for time to be completed.
Bros, there's nothing like death. It's just a transition. When you close your eyes in this realm, you open your eyes in another. It's like watching a 5D movie.
Every religion has their own version of death. So you're entitled to ya opinion.
Olyboy16: interesting! i should say though, even with my reasonably good logic, i still find ANN to be one igneous rock of gold. i hope OP will share his progress though. in the mean time, i'll love to learn with everyone here interested; i'm comfortable with the basic math theories of ANN, just starting out to write my first perceptron in C++; then also working on a custom MINST character ReC program with tensorflow (beginner stuff). i'll probably share my progress here with the hope that other geeks will also share their expertise and we'll build a strong knowledge base together.
Do share your progress, that would be interesting. When the OP logs in, i hope he gives us some tuts.
