FxMasterz:Only pastors who owns a church can perform miracles, got you. If a pastor goes to another church he can’t perform miracles untill he gets authority from the owner of that Church, got you. |

Maynmann: We're talking about a pastors place of influence where you can go meet him. I've explained how pastors could operate outside the church. All I've said is to explain to you what I meant by 'place of influence'. Just as the doctor who does not own a hospital can operate where he's given authority to operate. A pastor would perform miracles where he's given authority to operate as well, whether he owns the place or not. Church or no church. |

FxMasterz:Pastors can only be met in the church just like native priests. A doctor doesn’t need an hospital to operate, and he doesn’t need to be given an authority. Before you can use yahweh to perform a miracle you need to be given authority from who please? |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by FxMasterz: 9:47pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Maynmann: Jesus Christ!! Please read my post again. I can't continue repeating myself. I even made an example of my home in relation to Tinubu. I also explained that a doctor can't operate in another hospital without given the authority to treat people there. What's your profession? No matter what you do, you can't go to another place to do a job without being given permission or authority to work there. it's not a doctor/pastor thing now. Who doesn't know this? You want a pastor to enter a hospital and start healing without being invited. Does he own the hospital? Who gave him the permission to do so? Pastors can heal anywhere you meet them. A simple words as 'Please pray for me.' is all the power and authority a pastor needs to start praying for you. |

FxMasterz:Your examples are flawed, can’t you see what religion is doing to you. So if you pray to yahweh now, he can’t help those in the hospital because you don’t have permissions from the owner of the hospital, yahweh is powerless? |

budaatum:Lol so rape is good in Nigeria? So we should encourage it in Nigeria since it is good. |

Maynmann: I don't even understand what you're hitting at because it doesn't represent anything I have said. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Steep(m): 9:55pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
LordReed:So rape can be morally good according to you? |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Maynmann: 9:57pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
FxMasterz: You don’t understand what you are saying, religion has messed with you. Why don’t you go to hospitals and ask patients if they want to be healed, and what if it is a coma patients, your god is powerless against those? Yahweh worshipper lol |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by FxMasterz: 10:01pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Maynmann: To do so, you need the permission of the hospital. Yes, it's been done but not publicised. There are a few hospitals who grant such permissions. Meanwhile, you should understand that a hospital is a business place where doctors make money from the sick. Any other form of healing stands as a direct threat or competition to the medical healing business. Pastors respect that. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Maynmann: 10:03pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
FxMasterz: Yahweh needs permission from the hospital lol |

Steep: No according to you rape can be morally good if your god says it is morally good, 1 Like 1 Share |

Steep: Read it again. I have faith in your ability to comprehend instead of you replacing what you've read with your subjectivity. budaatum: 1 Like |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by LordReed(m): 10:05pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Steep: There is no such thing. Even your god is not purportedly recorded as acting by such a standard. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Steep(m): 10:05pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
LordReed:defending yourself is not wrong. When I said not harming anyone I mean going out of your way to cause harm to anyone. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Steep(m): 10:08pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
LordReed:I have not said morality is subjective, it is you that said so, don't try to spin it. According to you rape can be good it all depends on peoples choice. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Steep(m): 10:10pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
LordReed:So according to rape rape can be a good thing? Right |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by FxMasterz: 10:10pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Maynmann: Pastors are humans. They're not Yahweh. A sick person anywhere can call on God in the hospital directly and be healed. That was how Kenneth Hagin got healed when he was left to die on his hospital bed at age 16. God does not need permission to heal if you acknowledge and call upon him directly. Human beings who live in a regulated world need that. I can see that you fully understand all that I've said but you decided to unnecessarily drag the discussion, and I've given you the best of my time. You're gradually tending towards mockery. Laughing that I said Yahweh needs permission when nothing in our discussion points towards this direction. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Maynmann: 10:11pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
FxMasterz:When pastors are given permissions who do they call on? Now that they are not given permissions, why can’t they call on the same thing? Why exactly do pastors need permissions? |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Steep(m): 10:14pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
budaatum:So, rape is subjective according to you? So rape can be a good thing it all depends on people's choice? This proves that atheism has no absolute morality. Actually As a Christian I believe what is wrong is should be wrong regardless of race, gender and nationality. Morality is not a choice, that is why society can be wrong. God made every human so every human life is precious, so rape is bad. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by FxMasterz: 10:16pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Maynmann: I don't know why pastors need permission. You can experiment yourself. Take food to go distribute in a hospital to the sick. That's a good thing isn't it? You're being nice. Barge into a hospital without permission and start distributing food in every ward. Come back and tell me how it went. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Steep(m): 10:18pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Lol, if morality is subjective on what ground do we condemn rape, slavery, discrimination, murder, etc Answer is none, zilch meaning nothing is actually right or wrong just the way we see it. The people who fought against slavery did so because they believed that slavery is universally wrong even while the whole society considered slavery as a good thing. Atheism says it is slavery is ok provided the society see it as good. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Maynmann: 10:18pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
FxMasterz:What exactly is the physical thing like food thay the pastor is taking to the sick? How you are able to relate this to a pastor staying in his home and praying to yahweh to heal all the sick in the hospitals to taking food into an hospital shows the effects of religion lol If i go to the hospital i will be stopped, who is going to stop your yahweh from healing the sick? |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by FxMasterz: 10:21pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Maynmann: We're talking about permission now. We only want to know why pastors need permission isn't it? Just barge in there without permission. Distribute food, money, drugs or even perform healing. Okay? Go and do as advised. I'm done with you. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Maynmann: 10:24pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
FxMasterz: The pastor can only perform the miracle in the hospital. He can’t pray to his deity anywhere and he will heal the people. How do you “perform healing”? You are making it sound like it’s performing a physical surgery. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by FxMasterz: 10:34pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Maynmann: I have told you different ways in which miracles can be performed by pastors even without being in the hospital. I told you how pastors can pray for specific persons by name from any location. Didn't I? Must I always be repeating previous discussions when discussing with you? I don't know how many times I've done that today alone. And it has always being like that. You always want a discussion to become a roundabout whenever you feel cornered? Or, Do you want to tell me that you forget too soon? Or you just want to be disturbing me unnecessarily? Thanks for your time anyway. Bye. I won't reply you again except it's on something I've not touched in the course of our discussion so far. I don't have time for such. |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by budaatum: 10:35pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Steep: I did say this was way beyond your ability to comprehend, did I not? Rape is never a good thing! The subjectivity of what is rape is however glaringly obvious since you can not be condemned for raping your wife in Nigeria where such an idea does not exist, yet. Or have you heard of a husband raping his wife in Nigeria? And if a wife in Nigeria claims her husband raped her would it be a crime?

Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Maynmann: 10:38pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
FxMasterz:Why can’t yahweh just heal everyone in the hospital in the whole world, why does yahweh need specific names? |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by LordReed(m): 10:42pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by LordReed(m): 10:45pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Steep: Then harming someone is not universally wrong. If there is any situation in which something you would have said to be morally wrong turns out to be morally right then that action cannot be UNIVERSALLY morally wrong. If I save your life by lying am I morally wrong? |
Re: You cannot be an atheists and have objective morality. by Steep(m): 10:56pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
budaatum:you have just contradicted yourself, when you said rape is never a good thing meaning rape is morally wrong objectively not subjective. |
