Chill my guy,

everything's gonna be alright!~ Bob Marley

One love my guy, we're all here together and we need to find a way to live peacefully with our neighbours till we expire.

God is not just an imaginary sky daddy, he is real (to people like me) but if you feel like it's a silly idea, then live and let live!

I'm not God, neither am i a special being.

We are all equal, what makes the difference is the condition of your heart.

Physical food is for your body but spiritual food like God's word is for the soul!

So if you only believe in what you can see physically, you will surely enjoy it while it lasts but when your soul needs food, the physical can't help it!

Big bang, Explosion or whatever is what we believe, just drop that Bible and come join us in our belief, and stop referring to our belief as RIDICULOUS, i dey warn you o!

Lol!

LordReed:


Like what does it it take to get a simple fact theough to you? Evolution does not seek to explain where or how life came about. Can you not understand that?

SMH.

Your role model had no idea how life came about, yet he spoke authoritatively that it had nothing whatsoever to do with any god.

Maximus69:


That's why they're puzzled about God's word that's been written over thousands of years yet NO UPDATING!

I'm just knowing for the first time that BELIEVERS in evolution have updated the BIG BANG theory!

Ah! You are looking for trouble.

Did you just call them believers?

There is no belief in atheism. Belief has to do with faith and they don't do faith. Faith is for those who believe in that Book written thousands of years ago by cavemen. The atheists accept, reject or think. They only work with hard facts.

Maximus69:


That's the easiest one!

According to the book of bukusis, their ancestors were baboons and orangutans so since their ancestors don't talk, their is no way verify anything from them.
And now that the children of they ape family suddenly began speaking, the can only assume assume and assume how their ape ancestors came into existence!

Lol!


These atheists actually accept the ridiculous theory that their ancestors were apes and they, at the same time, vehemently reject the intelligent Words penned down by great men and dismiss them as cavemen.

aadoiza:

In fact, e shock me pass you. I think the update was overdue anyway, for they have consistently failed to give example of an explosion that creates rather than destroy.
The update I desire most is the one that would tell us how an intelligent atheist ancestor presence observed the explosion-now-turned expansions . That would make my lifetime.

Lol...

These atheists actually accept the ridiculous theory that their ancestors were apes and they, at the same time, vehemently reject the intelligent Words penned down by great men and dismiss them as cavemen.

The TRUTH is

They don't want to be submissive to orders that's why they're fighting to stay away from those who are interested in divine wisdom. Jesus said we should search for the lost sheep of the house of Israel, meaning obedient people who want to work with God in making this earth a home for us all! Matthew 10:6;15:24

God gave us the instinct to plan, this is where ATHEISTS are having problems. They want to carry other people along with their plans to make things better but forgetting that their refusal to agree with the idea of a supreme being (God) will continue to jeopardize all their efforts!

How can you just walk up to your fellowman and expect him to forgo his own plans to come and join you in support of yours simply because you feel you're more informed, whereas you're not the one feeding him?

So when they talk of religionists as being terrorists i laugh at them, because the one and only reason we have terrorists is due to the intolerance of man thinking his fellowman's plan sounds preposterous and wants to enforce his own on him! Ecclesiastes 8:9

Please is that not the same thing these mOrons claiming ATHEISTS trying to do with all these hopeless, fruitless and meaningless arguments?

Won't it have been easy if we all agree that there is a Supreme Being (God) who has the best arrangement to make our planet home a Paradise for us and look for ways to work with his plans? Psalms 37:7-11; 67:6; Isaiah 25:8; 35:5-6; 65:21-25

NO! ATHEISTS are saying there is no God, but they're expecting other intelligent creatures like themselves to forgo what those ones believe (trust) and follow them, please to follow them as what if not GOD?

That's what makes all their ideas stupid! Job 5:13

Maximus69:

I think you may be correct by this assertion.

They don't want to be associated with religion yet they're always looking forward to silencing religion!

Maximus69:

Religion is a very important aspect of man (man and woman).

Man and religion are inseparable.

Even those who claim they are not religious - or adhere to any religion at all - delude themselves. This is because the very thing that has filled the vacuum in their lives has become their god. It is just that they are unconscious of this and worship such god unconsciously.

As saints of YHVH Almighty, our confidence is not in physical, man-made weapons such as guns, knives, swords, bow and arrows.

The weapons with which we, the servants of YHVH Almighty, wage war in this world are not physical or of this world.

Our confidence comes from the Word of YHVH and his great and awesome power available and released to us through obedience.

Therefore, we must not stop studying the Scriptures for ourselves and obeying his Instruction.

The person through whom the Father in heaven, YHVH Almighty, will display his Power and Awesomeness in this world is made so from his/her mother's womb. Don't be pertubbed or distracted, the of Power YHVH Almighty in his saint cannot be stolen, blocked or transferred from one person to another

Obedience to the Word of YHVH Almighty is the key to whatever power or gift or talent he has deposited in any of his saint. This is for his glory.

Abstain from sin, especially sexual immorality of all sorts.

Lightning

What is lightning?
Lightning is a bright flash of electricity produced by a thunderstorm. All thunderstorms produce lightning and are very dangerous. If you hear the sound of thunder, then you are in danger from lightning. Lightning kills and injures more people each year than hurricanes or tornadoes; between 75 to 100 people.
Lightning

What causes lightning?
Lightning is an electric current. Within a thundercloud way up in the sky, many small bits of ice (frozen raindrops) bump into each other as they move around in the air. All of those collisions create an electric charge. After a while, the whole cloud fills up with electrical charges. The positive charges or protons form at the top of the cloud and the negative charges or electrons form at the bottom of the cloud. Since opposites attract, that causes a positive charge to build up on the ground beneath the cloud. The grounds electrical charge concentrates around anything that sticks up, such as mountains, people, or single trees. The charge coming up from these points eventually connects with a charge reaching down from the clouds and - zap - lightning strikes!
How Lightning Forms

Have you ever rubbed your feet across carpet and then touched a metal door handle? If so, then you know that you can get shocked! Lightning works in the same way.
Static Electricity

Click Here to see where lightning is currently striking across the U.S.

How hot is lightning?
Lightning is approximately 54,000 degrees Fahrenheit. That is six times hotter than the surface of the sun!

What color is lightning?
Lightning seems to be clear or a white-yellow color, but it really depends on the background.
Lightning
What causes thunder?
Thunder is caused by lightning. When a lightning bolt travels from the cloud to the ground it actually opens up a little hole in the air, called a channel. Once then light is gone the air collapses back in and creates a sound wave that we hear as thunder. The reason we see lightning before we hear thunder is because light travels faster than sound!

How do you know if lightning is nearby?
If you see dark clouds, then lightning could be present, but the best thing you can do is to listen for thunder. If you hear thunder, then you need to go indoors or get in a car. Don't be outside, where lightning could strike! If your hair stands on end or your skin starts to tingle, lightning maybe about to strike. Get down on your hands and knees and keep your head tucked in. Do not lay flat, because it can give lightning a better chance of strike you.
Lightning

How far away can you see lightning and hear thunder?
Within those distant thunderstorms, the lightning bolts can be seen as much as 100 miles from us, depending on the height of the bolt, the clarity of the air, and our elevation. Thunder, in comparison, has a much shorter range of detection - usually less than 15 miles in a quiet rural setting and under 5 miles in a noisy city environment.

Why are you less likely to see static electricity in the summer?
In the summer, our dew points are much higher due to warm and humid air coming from the Gulf of Mexico and that is why we have humid weather. In the winter, our dew points are much lower due to cold and direr air coming from Canada. The lower the dew point the better it is to create static electricity, so that's why you see it more in the winter.

What is cloud-to-ground lightning?
All lightning is dangerous, but cloud-to-ground lightning is the most dangerous type of lightning. Most cloud-to-ground lightning strikes come from the negatively charged bottom of the cloud traveling to the positively charged ground below.


Cloud-to-ground lightning bolts strike the tall objects, like trees and buildings. These lightning strikes can cause fire and property damage. If you're the tallest object, then lighting can strike you. Lightning is the second weather related killed.

What is intracloud lightning?
Intracloud lightning is the most common type of lightning. This occurs when there are both positive and negative charges within the same cloud. Usually, the process takes place within the cloud and looks like a bright flash of light which flickers.

What is intercloud lightning?
Intercloud lightning is less common. It's when a lightning strike occurs when there are positive and negative charges within different clouds and the strike travels in the air between them.

What is forked lightning?
Forked lighting appears as jagged lines of light. They can have several branches. Forked lightning can be seen shooting from the clouds to the ground, from one cloud to another cloud, or from a cloud out into the air. This lightning can strike up to 10 miles away from a thunderstorm.
Lightning

What is sheet lightning?
Sheet lightning appears as flashes of light that seem to light up or illuminate entire clouds.

What is heat lightning?
Heat lightning is a term used to describe lightning flashes that are too far away from you to hear the thunder. The reason that it is called heat lightning is that it appears most often on a hot summer day when the sky is clear overhead.

What is high-altitude lightning?
High-altitude lightning has been given other names such as "red sprites," "green elves," and "blue jets." This form of lightning appears as brightly colored flashes, high above thunderstorms. You can't see these types of lightning from the ground.

What is ribbon lightning?
Ribbon lightning is when a bolt of lightning separates due to wind and appears as parallel lightning streaks.

What is chain or bead lightning?
Chain or bead lightning is when a lightning bolt is broken into dotted lines while fading.

What is ball lightning?
Ball lightning is a rare form of lightning. It usually appears as a reddish, luminous ball, but can come in any color. Ball lightning is usually spherical in shape and about one foot in diameter. Hissing noises originate from such balls and they sometimes make a loud noise when they explode.
Ball Lightning

What is St. Elmo's Fire?
St. Elmo's Fire appears as a blue or greenish glow above pointed objects on the ground. It is created when tiny positively charged sparks reach up in response to negatively charges in the air or clouds above the ground. If a thunderstorm is nearby, St. Elmo's Fire might be seen right before a lightning strike.

What is anvil lightning?
Anvil lightning is a type of lightning referred to as "the bolt from the blue" because it often appears suddenly from a seemingly cloudless sky. A bolt at the top of a thunderstorm arcs away from the main cloud and strikes the ground where the skies above often appear clear.

Can you tell how far away a storm is?
Yes, you can use thunder to tell how far away a storm is. Next time you see a storm, count the number of seconds between when you see the lightning and hear the thunder. Take the number of seconds and divide by 5 and that will tell you how far away the storm is in miles. For example: If you counted 10 seconds between the lightning and the thunder, the lightning is 2 miles away!

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH - A severe thunderstorm (damaging winds of 58 miles per hour or more, or 1" hail in diameter or greater) is likely to develop in your area.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING - A severe thunderstorm (damaging winds of 58 miles per hour or more, or hail three-fourths of an inch in diameter or greater) is taking place in your area.

PROTONS - They are particles with a positive charge.

ELECTRONS - They are particles with a negative charge.

STATIC ELECTRICITY - It is a form of electricity that is created when an object has too many electrons, giving it a negative charge.

LEADERS - A channel of charged air created by excess electrons in a thunderstorm cloud. A leader reaches from the cloud to the ground below, looking for positive charges.

RETURN STROKE - It's an electrical charge that travels from the ground to a thundercloud. This return stroke releases tremendous energy, bright light and thunder.

STREAMERS - A channel of charged air created by protons on the ground. They are created when leaders are created and reach from the ground to the sky looking for a leader to connect with.

Lightning StrikeLightning Safety TipsLightning Strike
IF YOU’RE OUTDOORS: Keep an eye at the sky. Look for darkening skies, flashes of lightning, or increasing winds. Lightning often proceeds rain, so don’t wait for the rain to begin. If you hear the sound of thunder, go to a safe place immediately. The best place to go is a sturdy building or a car, but make sure the windows in the car are shut. Avoid sheds, picnic areas, baseball dugouts and bleachers. If there is no shelter around you, stay away from trees. Crouch down in the open area, keeping twice as far away from a tree as far as it is tall. Put your feet together and place your hands over your ears to minimize hearing damage from thunder. If you’re with a group of people stay about 15 feet from each other. Stay out of water, because it’s a great conductor of electricity. Swimming, wading, snorkeling and scuba diving are not safe. Also, don’t stand in puddles and avoid metal. Stay away from clotheslines, fences, and drop your backpacks because they often have metal on them. If you’re playing an outdoor activity, wait at least 30 minutes after the last observed lightning strike or thunder.
IF YOU’RE INDOORS: Avoid water. It’s a great conductor of electricity, so do not take a shower, wash your hands, wash dishes or do laundry. Do not use a corded telephone. Lightning may strike exterior phone lines. Do not use electric equipment like computers and appliances during a storm. Stay away from windows and doors and stay off porches.

IF SOMEONE IS STRUCK BY LIGHTNING: Call for help. Call 9-1-1 or send for help immediately. The injured person does not carry an electrical charge, so it is okay to touch them.

@IamMichael


Bia, anu ohia a, so it is because you're a lawyer that you came to this thread to insult me? Did they tell you that knowledge ends with lawyers? If you're a lawyer, are you also a physicist, or even a biologist. Even if you alone are a physicist, biologist, and lawyer, spiritual authority has nothing whatsoever to do with academic qualifications or educational certificates or even age. I guess it's because I have mentioned my field here that you felt you could trample on me, abi? Ukwu gba ji kwe gi there. Mkpi ohia!

Just so you know, Iammichael, neither you nor anyone in your entire lineage will ever have a miniscule of what YHVH Almighty, my Daddy in the sky, has deposited in this servant of his, Elated177. Not even up to the next 1000 years.

You are supposed to sit at my feet, listen and learn whenever I am discussing the things of my Father in heaven, YHVH of Hosts, and not foolishly display arrogance in utter ignorance.

Didn't they teach you in law school to respect views of other people in other facets and fields of life?

Obviously, you have gone through my threads, sighted an extraordinary display of knowledge and wisdom and mischievously decided to waltz in here to ridicule me. Efforts in absolute futility because there is nothing here to attract ridicule. It must bother you that a physicist could display such wisdom, boldness, authority and confidence. Well, be informed mr lawyer, that such wisdom, boldness, authority and confidence flow from the Father of the heavenly lights who does not change like shifting shadows to this saint of his, Elated177. His Spirit of power, wisdom, knowledge and understanding guide and guard this servant of his, Elated177.

How foolish of you to think that simply because you're a lawyer and I am a physicist you could speak to me any how you liked! Probably you stupidly think I am beneath you. Nkita ra cha a kwa gi imi na anya!

Neither age nor academic qualifications have anything to do with spiritual authority.


You may be a lawyer, quite alright, but as far as the things of the Creator of heaven and earth are concerned, you are only fit to sit at my feet, listen and learn.

GRIMMJOE:
Science isn't human being, what is your point.

Good point. Science studies the physical. What about the non-physical or extra normal

IamMichael:


In Logical Reasoning, what you are doing is referred to as "God of the gap fallacy".

The term God-of-the-gaps fallacy can refer to a position that assumes an act of God as the explanation for an unknown phenomenon, which is a variant of an argument from ignorance fallacy.

Honestly, your ignorance level must be competing with that of slowpoke's. Why don't you just use your rational sense instead into finding out if actually your belief system passes the simple tests of logic instead of consistently making a fôol of yourself.

Religious arguments are senseless because if you believe 'God' exists, it also brings the next question, who/what created 'God'... and what/who created this thing/being that created "God"... It's an unending circus that will not end and which we will never know. It's something that will drive you mad if you think it more, which is one of the reasons why religious founders had to come up with something to fill the gap.

Please, I advise you again, quit being silly!!!

No man no. God exist s in a realm that is not bound by physical laws. Take it that God created the universe and everything within it, it only means that our thought patterns would never be able to comprehend anything outside our reality. That's why you always use the law you just stated to define a Creator. Anything that is neither space, matter, time, makes no sense to us. Because of the limits caused by our reality.

@bolded, if our thought pattern could never be able to comprehend anything outside our reality, how did yours transcend this limitation to be able to perceive this ethereal state you are referring to?

I did not. If u could comprehend what I said, then my statement is still within our scope of understanding. I didn't go outside human comprehension. My statement is still bound by human understanding because I had to make reference to our reality(space,time and matter) in attempt to explain another.

LordReed:


Then how do you know a god exists in that place you can't comprehend?

I can't comprehend the place, but from biblical knowledge I have come to the knowledge and understanding of how God works. My explanation of that place was based on my comprehension of our reality.

elated177:



What are you trying to say here? That, scientifically, the cause of lightning and thunder is still not controversial? When something is controversial, is it not still subject to speculation? Has any scientist actually gone up there to carry out the experiment and recreate or induce lightning and thunder?

Nikola Tesla did

How did the authors of the bible comprehend this incomprehensible place to know?

LordReed:


How did the authors of the bible comprehend this incomprehensible place to know?

Inspiration from God. It means that they basically had a taste of God's infinite knowledge. That's why the Bible is called the "word of God". And also, God is the author of the Bible because all the writers wrote it through his inspiration

xamuell:

How did they and how can you confirm they were inspired by god since you cannot comprehend this place you talk about?

LordReed:


How did they and how can you confirm they were inspired by god since you cannot comprehend this place you talk about?

Now, everything in the Bible is comprehensible to man. God knew the limits of man's understanding, that's why the Bible makes a lot of physical references to drive a point. This explains the fact that they could not comprehend this external place. How did they know that the inspiration was of God? Well an inspiration is understood by he who is inspired. While we draw inspiration from he that was inspired, Indirectly we all draw inspiration from God. How do we know? You won't believe me if I told you because you cannot find a concrete proof. It still balls down to belief which is abstract. But I will try to explain within reason. If we say the source of all knowledge is God, it therefore means that even our own ability to think is from God. How we use that ability is on us. The Bible is the product of man's ability to think. If you had ever noticed, the verbatim word of God is bolded in red on some Bibles. That is a differenciation of man's inspiration from God and God's exact words.

Usorohtheman:
I believe there is a God that we must always thank for everything that he has done for us. He has given us everything that we need to survive.
The only thing he wants from us is to always thank him.

So God gave us everything, just so that we would always thank him? You mean all such a great God needs from us is just thanks?
Just out of curiosity, why would he need that so much?
