Bimpeusman:
A 30-year-old barber, identified simply as Tersur, yesterday died after rescuing a drowning pig from the gutter in front of his shop in Gboko East Local Government Area of Benue State.

A witness said Tersur collapsed and died moments after rescuing the pig. Tersur abandoned his work, when he saw the pig in the gutter in front of his shop, being swept away by the heavy flow of water.

“Tersur refused to listen to entreaties to allow the pig to perish. He got a helper and they both swung into action; the pig was saved after both Tersur and the helper were drenched. What ordinarily looked like a good gesture from Tersur turned to sorrow when he slumped immediately after bringing the pig out of the gutter,” the witness said.

Tersur was rushed to a private hospital around the vicinity, but doctors at the facility confirmed him dead. Those close to Tersur said his death was as strange as it was sudden. They, however, attributed it to the will of God.

Village people at work. Helping others is nice but needs serious consideration atimes

Very true

grandstar:


Some Chinese eat cockroaches

The issue isn't my personal taste but simply what the Bible says.

Left to my wishes, I'll ban the eating of dogs, cats, monkeys and some other animals.

If we call ourselves Christian, we are to be imitators of Christ and behave live sheep. Obedient !

This is unreasonable as the bible forbids Christians from eating swine and Jesus christ never came to condemn the laws but to fulfill it.

betterpikinn:

And THAT'S WHY YOU EAT MAGGOTS AND ROACHES TOO...
YEYE

I'm sorry if I upset you but I'm just stating what the Bible says.

Left to my own devices, I would ban the eating of dogs, cats, monkeys and so on. But as a Christian, we are advised not to go above the things that were written and hence as a "good for nothing slave" have no choice but to abide by it. (Read Luke 17:10)

Look at the case of Apostle Peter. He was a Jew and for over a 1,000 years, they were forbidden by the Mosaic Law from eating some certain animals as they were considered unclean for Israelites by God. They were even to limit their association with non-Jews whom they called Gentiles (You and I fall under that category)

Please read below a trance that Paul experienced in Acts:10:9-16

9 The next day as they were continuing on their journey and were approaching the city, Peter went up to the housetop about the sixth hour to pray.

10 But he became very hungry and wanted to eat. While they were preparing the meal, he fell into a trance and saw heaven opened and something* descending like a great linen sheet being let down by its four corners on the earth; and in it were all sorts of four-footed animals and reptiles* of the earth and birds of heaven.

13 Then a voice said to him: “Get up, Peter, slaughter* and eat!”

14 But Peter said: “Not at all, Lord, because I have never eaten anything defiled and unclean.”

15 And the voice spoke again to him, the second time: “Stop calling defiled the things God has cleansed.”
16 This happened a third time, and immediately it* was taken up into heaven.

What do you understand by the above? Are there or are there not unclean animals today?

End time pig

He was an animal lover,albeit a bit foolish with it.

Bible Gateway Leviticus 11 :: NIV. You may eat any animal that has a split hoof completely divided and that chews the cud. "`There are some that only chew the cud or only have a split hoof, but you must not eat them. The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a split hoof; it is ceremonially unclean for you.

You're just an idiot who's trying to sound smart. Only a person with heart could've done what he did. And who the f**k told you pigs where still unclean to a Christian!? (not talking Muslim or jew)

They should write on his epitaph, here lies a man who gave his life so a pig should live

Really can't process it how anyone could throw up very cross jokes at someone's death..I'm sure there's deep mourning at the victim's home...

the pig may be thrown in as a sacrifice, he stupidly exchange his life for that of a pig! RIP to the dead

Nobodyperson:

Which god are we talking about tho?
There's more than 1000 different ones.

The one that created everything that exists. Yeah, that one.

Not the Christian God, not the Moslem God, not the Hindu gods, not the Buddhist gods, not the white man's God, not the black man's God, not the red man's gods, not the yellow man's gods.

Just the One, the Absolute, the Author of everything that existed, is existing and will ever exist.

The Supreme Being through Whom everything came to be and without Whom nothing can be.

That Eternal, Infinite, Immeasurable Being of whom we are but like tiny sparks of that Divine Flame.

Now think about this question deeply.

How do you know this god exist?

Nobodyperson:

Now think about this question deeply.

How do you know this god exist?

Because I exist.

Now think deeply about these questions:

1. How did you come to exist?

2. Can an inanimate object evolve into a conscious self aware being?

rescue mission gone wrong

ElsonMorali:


Because I exist.

Now think deeply about these questions:

1. How did you come to exist?

2. Can an inanimate object evolve into a conscious self aware being?

So because you exist means a creator exist?
Matter exist but it can't be created.

How did I come to existence?
Thought thousands of years of evolution.

Inanimate object is a completely different thing from living organisms.


I mean, if everything has a creator that means god has a creator too, no?

No. Because you can't understand the concept of something doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Because you can't explain how God came to be doesn't mean he doesn't exist.

Can you explain how the universe came to be? And please don't tell us the big bang because even scientists are beginning to wonder what banged the bang.

Can you explain the source and origin of ions and protons and neutrons?

Can you explain how it's possible for you to evolve from an unintelligent, non self aware, non self conscious lower animal to a being that is self aware and self conscious, who looks at himself in the mirror and forms the "I" concept?

Do you really think that man evolved from apes or tadpoles?

That science teaches us that matter can't be created nor destroyed simply teaches us that man, the highest intelligent being we know of on planet earth can't create nor destroy matter or energy. It doesn't mean that there isn't a Being who can't.

The simple point here is this, the most brilliant human mind that ever walked the face of this earth can't even begin to comprehend the mysteries of the Universe. How then can we expect man to understand God, the Creator of the Universe. It'd be far easier if you attempted to teach a 6 month old baby the finer points of nuclear physics, than it would be for the greatest created intellect to grasp fully the concept of the Absolute.

That a blind man can't see the sun doesn't mean the sun doesn't exist. That a deaf man can't hear the sound of thunder doesn't mean thunder doesn't exist.

he he... Seems I hit a nerve. You're the type who mistakes being a coward as being smart. Ask yourself deeply if our responsibility as humans should only exist for ourselves alone? Don't forget that this world would have no known problems if we weren't on this earth. You could think of global warming, wars, pollution, and so on. It all points to us. We've made life a living hell for both ourselves and animals, and you're here goofing about a selfless act done to save a dying animal. People like you are what's wrong with this world because you don't see the hypocrisy in your words or actions. You're a f**king slowpoke, I shouldn't waste words with you. You even had the guts to quote a Bible verse. Have you forgotten how David rescued his sheep from the mouth of a Lion!? was he foolish or brave? Or would he have been any less brave if he died? You're a f**king coward that's what you are. May God rest his soul, for his was far more brave than you'll ever be.

You keep laying all down to the button line that god created it.

But by your logic, if everything has a creator then surely god has a creator.

ElsonMorali:


And who created that creator that created that god?

Isn't that that the question you're supposed to answer?

Since by your logic, everything has a creator and it's impossible for something to come out from nothing.

It's your logic not mine.
