plaetton: Falling off etc terms i used were only figures of speech.. I don't dispute what you're saying.. My point is the fact that all these things and mans dna are intiligently and beautifully arranged, is a pointer to the fact that there exists, a knowing/alive or conscious being that has set this up |

1Sharon:This west africans meetings with the Europeans during the slave trade prior to the amalgamation of Nigeria and other several African countries is one of the things making me to look again and even calls for concern among Africans. And I support the division Nigeria into various countries because of this. Can you imagine that the history of the Yorubas was first written by Samuel Johnson (a yoruba man who became educated), and he gave this history to a British publisher, do you know that this publisher suddenly came out with an excuse that he misplaced and lost the book? The book wasn't published at the scheduled time. How come? Who wouldn't know that there's a conspiracy (western conspiracy /UK conspiracy) in such gibberish. How can you say you misplaced a man's effort about his own people and want people to believe you are not acting on some sort of mischief and evil especially when you are the brutal colonial masters that deceived them into colonization? Well, the scraps and manuscript was regathered by Samuel Johnson's relative, a brother who now rewrote the book, completed it and published it. That's why we have the book : "The history of the Yorubas " by Samuel Johnson today. Now, the question is that why are they (whites/uk) bent on doing us evil? It's obvious they don't wanna see us prosper. They are the main reason for African poverty today. Even the British high commissioner is going up and down like headless chicken meeting prominent elites on how Nigeria must remain one. So that's why I believe we must take a second look at religion and not let it control us. 1 Like |

Really funny thread. Ruins of a temple doesn't prove the existence of a god and every sane person knows that the Bible contains some truths as well as hundreds of lies. And one thing that is bugging me is how did the so called archaeologists know that these are the ruins of Solomon's Temple. |

kingxsamz: The dog argument corroborates the nature vs nuture argument. Dogs, cat's are domesticated animals, a wolf doesn't care about your feelings because it's living instinctively. You see , it's not by typing long paragraphs or copying rubbish just for the sake of it, you need to have a mind of your own and think critically. Guidance is key, religion provides that. Development is not tied into critiquing religion, it's tied to brain matter and the educated unproductive African is merely looking for scapegoats. 1 Like |

But you'd see a baby covered up yes.. But the baby is playing and not feeling the cold.. But adults are feeling cold.. Why do you think this is so? After all a full grown adult should be stronger than a baby.. Can you explain? I know you can't, i have the answer neither will i explain to you, the point i wish to pass across is theres a lot more to this life, you don't understand... How does water end up inside coconut? Science in all its glory.. Do you know that scientists haven't gotten a cure for common cold, flu?.. Thats the thing about God.. He wants you to believe him, without physical evidence. |

cescky:First of all, I don't know what you mean by man's DNA are beautifully arranged. Every living thing have DNA that evolved (arranged in your words) for optimal form and function, even the viruses whose DNA are "beautifully arranged" to kill you. As for the so-called conscious being that set this whole universe, well, where is he/it now ? If there is one conscious being, there is no reason why there shouldn't be 2, 3, 4 , communities or even planets or universes of such conscious beings. And now we have to begin to wonder who created all these super conscious beings. Who created the creator. Infinite regression sets in. Now, if as I suspect, you're going to say that the conscious being self-created or evolve on its own, then my answer is that if the super conscious being evolved on its own without a creator, then there is also no reason why the universe could not have evolved on its own without a super conscious being. God is an abstract notion. It's a contradiction in terms. 1 Like |

Those cats and dogs you mentioned, are they aware of your religion and its rules? How about those who are not religious and have cats and dogs? You see, you don't even know where you stand.

neyoohhh: Imagine telling me that religion brought about morality. I guess all humans were the same as wild animals untill religion came out of no where. Even your bible goes against every form of moral it claims to uphold. Genocide, slavery, rape, massacre of infants, human sacrifice, unnecessary killing and forceful taking of people's home and lands. All these were condoned by the same god in the bible you believe gave you morals. Maybe if your religion told you it's morally okay to eat babies, you'd begin to eat babies because you don't have a brain to think for yourself, religion has to do it for you first. 1 Like |

kingxsamz: Religion: In the primitive community religion played a decisive role in the framing of laws. Religion served as the basis of law in most of the countries. ... In the sense of the term Divine law is a law revealed through man from God. God is the ultimate source of divine law, though man may promulgate it. |

neyoohhh: How did you go from religion is responsible for morals and laws on earth to " God is the source of law"? If a god is the source of laws and morals, which of the gods are we talking about because different religions have different laws? And how many of the laws in the old testament and quran can be applied to our modern day society, since you made an outrageous claim that law and moral comes from a god/religion? How do babies know that stealing meat is bad? Did their parents warn them or where they told in church? How about atheists who have kids, how did their kids know?

kingxsamz: You're still grasping at straw's. Without a god concept there's no need for morality, it doesn't matter if it's budism, Islam.. the God concept is there to guide man's consciousness and conscience.( When no one is looking). It's shocking you downplay the importance of religion on how the laws of morality evolved and it's role in advancing science/ civilization not to be confused with extremism. Atheism has achieved nothing other than anarchy/ chaos, even worse you can't defend it. 1 Like |

neyoohhh:I read is post and it was clear that he didn't understand what you meant by saying science has its roots in Christian presupposition. He went on to attack straw man as his usual tactics. I engaged many wannabe atheists on such topics about modern science having roots in Christian presupposition and if they don't want to appear 'foolish' after confirmation, they tend to end the discussion. It appears that most of them just feed on the half truths their itchy ears love but don't really informed on the science they tend to claim monopoly of. In fact, they get surprised to hear that over 70% of Nobel laureates in science are Christians. Since they've been willing to accept the lie that Christianity makes people dumb. The worse equivocation I experience is when they equate historical science such as paleontology or other evolutionary biology to hard science like Physics, Molecular Biology, etc. You question aeons of years since you know of the assumption that was used in such technology and the fact that the technology is not even the authority in assigning age, as results from it are laughable many times; then they ask you to throw your phone away, equating science/tech which brought about phone to a historical science which rest on materialism philosophy. It's fun anyway and I personally love to encourage others who may have been shaken by the half truths just as the Devil used it for Eve. |

BeLookingIDIOT:Just for your last paragraph, the statement are mere statement of faith. It's the philosophy on which they are founded that made them look as fact. The best bet is long age as it has more evidence for it. Unfortunately, there are fatal evidence against it, such that if it weren't for the fact that it contradict the Bible, it should have been abandoned. But just as Prof Richard Lewontin said "... We have an a priori commitment to materialism... for we cannot allow a divine foot". Examples are the fact that fossilization requires a process which definitely punch blow on the foundation of long age - principle of uniformity. To go solve that, believers have to produce unprovable scenarios which must no align with religious text. Others are the recent discovery of cells and even tissues in dino bones which are IMPOSSIBLE in a long age scenario. We still have the problem of C - 14 in age long stuff which also is IMPOSSIBLE in a long age scenario. The evidence against it is just as numerous as evidence for it, but the materialism of the day would rather hype it as fact for believers to spread, than really tell them the truth that it is highly debatable. The worse is the theory of evolution. This has only gained ground because it is the alternative to special creation which would remove God from equation of life. First of all, many believers would run away from abiogenesis, with which there won't be evolution in the first place. There's no need to start the movie at the 50 minutes mark. Let's start it from the beginning so we can all enjoy. That said, there's no evidence of uphill evolution that Darwin proposed nor those aggressively defended by his bulldogs. What we see is fallacy of equivocation at all times. Antibiotics resistance doesn't imply that amoeba will lead to amotekun over millions of years. The mechanism for all those have now been discovered and seen that it does not confirm Darwinism. Rather, researches from the past few decades have continued to show how the theory does not hold water. But Ptolemic geocentrism stood for a thousand years, evolution is also enjoying same with so much elephant hurling everywhere - "evolution is a fact", "those who deny evolution are stupid and are science deniers" etc. |
