Religion / Re: Why Do Catholics Pray With The Rosary, And Bow To Mary's Statue? by adsonstone: 9:48pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
italo: Yes, the rosary was being condemned first...and that was the reason I suggested you showing them where Jesus approved it (since they would believe that) rather than you keep claiming that 'Jesus never condemned it'...like you know certainly all what Jesus condemned and approved. I did not request any proof for my own use...I do not need it, it makes no difference to me. italo: No, I don't need one. I have one already. italo: Again, I did not request it, it was just my suggestion to you...for those who are against the rosary. I'm not for or against the use of the rosary, it makes no difference to me. ....and I ask you again, or what relevance is deeperlife to what's being discussed? |

italo: For once, THINK! Those statements were comparisons to you wild assumptions and words, to show you they're grossly irrelevant. Brocab's 'senselessness' is YOUR own claim, what have I to do with it?! You mentioned that 'Brocab was senseless,' I replied by asking why you were still talking with him, you said to expose him further...I simply answered that 'keep exposing him!' Do you have any problem with that?! For the other one, you said you have the right to condemn whatever you do not like, I answered you by comparing your belief to what the Boko Haram believe; that they have a right to condemn and destroy whatever they do not like! Is that too much for you to deal with? Again, I say; I have no obligation to provide any proof for anything, I did not claim anything which requires any proof. If anyone is to prove anything, it is who should prove that; God confirmed the rosary to you..because you claimed that. Where are the questions I dodged? Do you mean providing proofs for your own assumptions and claims I did not make? See, if you cannot be honest and straightforward, it is not compulsory to talk, you have a right not to! |

italo: What are you saying?! What are my dubious claims?! Where are they?! What relevant thing/question have you asked me that I avoided?! All what I've said relates to the topic of the thread. How does Kumuyi or deeperlife relate to the thread? Seems your dishonesty is driving you to another level. |

italo: I'm dubious because I debunked your false claim? Dishonest because I refuted a lie? I said the guy did not mention that all Jesus said or did was in the scripture. From his post, I can also correctly imply that he's saying that anything that has no basis in scriptures is not of God. You can imply whatever suits you. italo: You have been debunked! You claimed that Jesus never commanded anybody to write anything! Jesus debunked that in Revelation 1:19 without hesitation! Simple! No need for irrelevant stories! Jesus calls you a liar! Go and fight him! italo: I disagree. I believe that a teaching does not have to be explicitly recorded in the to be true or to be of God but it must have a basis in the scripture. If it doesn't, it is not of God. italo: Likewise Bokoharam, they believe they have the right to condemn and destroy whatever they do not like. italo:It would be unwise for me to prove what's not concerned with the subject of the discourse. italo: Yes, I skipped...because I know anyone can lie and claim that "it did not occur to them." If you're honest that it did not occur to you, it is not a lie, it was a careless and ignorant speech, devoid of proof...but if it did, then it is simply a lie. However, since I can't tell if you're honest or not...besides, I have known you to be dishonest on so many issues, so I can take it to be a lie, or an ignorant speech if it pleases me. italo: 1. I did not observe the post that said so. 2. What's the proof that he's lying? 3. What's the truth about what he said and what's the proof? italo: Keep exposing him. As I've said before, I am under no obligation to prove anything, it is outside what's being discussed. |

italo: Before posting, I have read the op and observed your discourse with the guy (Brocab). He did not mention or state that all Jesus said or did was in the bible, you implied that. His argument against the rosary is simply that it has no seeming reference or recommendation from or in the scriptures/bible, rather, it seems to be against it. italo: With the bold, you have already proven my point, your claim is debunked. You falsely claimed that Jesus "never told anyone to write anything" That's settled, italo: Just like you have no proof that 'drinking petrol' was not commanded by God, yet you condemn it repeatedly. italo: My statement is a comparison with your statement...when you said; "Jesus never condemned the Rosary, why do you condemn it?" ...and I suggested that rather than that, you should show where Jesus approved it. There's no issue with that. italo: Oh, you were speaking in ignorance? Then, what's the certainty that more of what you've said have not been in ignorance...and could be untrue? italo: I do not hate you, neither do I envy you. It will not just be okay for me, claiming to be a Christian, yet watch another who claims the same say untrue things to others...eg "Jesus never commanded anyone to write anything." Besides, if you believe Brocab is senseless as you said, why can't you simply ignore? Or is the urge to talk to him just to much to resist? NB: I'm not condemning your rosary or the use of your rosary. |
Religion / Re: Why Do Catholics Pray With The Rosary, And Bow To Mary's Statue? by adsonstone: 9:32am On Dec 15, 2015 |
italo:Proof? Evidence? Do you know everything Jesus ever mentioned to know the ones He didn't mention? Or is this another wild/weird imagination/assumption from your head? italo:Lie! Revelation 1:19 "Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;" Maybe Italo was the one speaking there. italo: The OT was before Jesus. The NT was written after Jesus. So? italo: Why should anyone believe you? Do you have any proof? italo: Jesus never condemned 'drinking petrol,' why do you condemn it? Rather, you should show them where Jesus approved the Rosary. NB: I'm not against your use of Rosary, this post is just to show your lies and hypocrisy. 2 Likes |

Religion / Re: Does Adeboye Now Believe In Canonization Of Saints? by adsonstone: 8:54am On Nov 29, 2015 |
Ubenedictus: Your case is an instance of such allegation. You claim pentecostals condemn canonization without showing the examples I requested. Show me two or three examples of people who condemned canonization and where these people supported it when Pastor Adeboye 'canonized' mama H.I.D Awolowo . Ubenedictus: I don't know if there's a creed or belief statement anywhere. What I know is that they teach the Trinity as evidenced in many of their recorded sermons. |
Religion / Re: Does Adeboye Now Believe In Canonization Of Saints? by adsonstone: 2:01pm On Nov 26, 2015 |
Ubenedictus: Show examples, maybe 2 or 3, of these people who claim the pope cannot do that, likewise, show where the these same people claim Adeboye can do that...all with sufficient evidences/references. I have known Roman Catholics to allude claims to innocent people. Show what I requested or I count this as another of these catholic allegations. Ubenedictus: Congratulations! Your effort was not wasted in the long term. Your friend is an example of 'Thomas' who wouldn't believe until he's convinced, He wouldn't just accept what he isn't convinced about. The Church your friend attends teaches Trinity and believes firmly in it. Just like there are some Catholics that don't miss mass but are still unsure if the Trinity is true or not or whether images of, and rituals to saints should be made even when the church teaches and practices these things. Ubenedictus: Exactly the same applies to Roman Catholics. |

Religion / Re: Does Adeboye Now Believe In Canonization Of Saints? by adsonstone: 12:04am On Nov 26, 2015 |
italo: Perhaps, he also declared that Christians should now venerate and pray through her. ...and if tomorrow, I say 'I have no doubt that my late grandpa is in Heaven,' I have canonized him...wrong? |
Religion / Re: Does Adeboye Now Believe In Canonization Of Saints? by adsonstone: 9:09pm On Nov 25, 2015 |
italo: Okay. So, according to you, Pastor Adeboye has canonized H.I.D Awolowo by giving his opinion about her afterlife, right? He has made her venerable? Continue. |
Religion / Re: Does Adeboye Now Believe In Canonization Of Saints? by adsonstone: 7:10pm On Nov 25, 2015 |
italo: Okay...maybe. I know every 'Christian' is a Saint when alive and if he dies as such, he remains a saint and will live with God and like God after his transition...even without being 'Canonized' by any religious body. 1 Like |

Even if it isn't 'for security reasons,' The DG has the legal right to ban dresses or items he deems inappropriate via a 'mere' (oral) command. Corps members should understand that they are in a military service and all commands MUST be obeyed. That's why they're called CORPS in the first place.

Family / Re: I'm Having Doubts About Getting Married Next Month by adsonstone: 2:15am On Sep 14, 2015 |
Squig: You need to understand that 'issues' in relationships are part of the relationship, your reaction(s) to them determines how far and how well you both go. If you leave your man, you WILL still have issues with the new man. This new man you speak of is most likely the cause of your doubts in your man to the extent that you cannot even tell the new man you are getting married to your man, besides, you have said you are disconnected with your man especially on your own end. I'm quite sure that if you see this new man with another lady who he is also attracted to (more than you), all your 'attraction' and 'feelings' for him will fade. Think, sort out your issues with your man and stay with him, you have already said your man is the love of your life and he's got everything you want in a man...so, what else are you looking for? 1 Like |

italo: Jesus explicitly mentioned/taught that the Eucharist is his body and blood (whatever that means), I believe it just as he said it...it is his body and blood. It does not make it a 'scientific fact' so to speak. Jesus's declaration only means it is the truth that doesn't change. 'Scientific facts' are known to change repeatedly. *I removed other monikers to avoid them getting too many mentions, just like I was getting.* |

italo: What do you call it when someone knows he has good and evil deeds, mentions the good deeds (when not asked) and refuses to mention the evil ones (even when asked) just to seem all entirely good to the world? italo: That's wrong. I never said it was done by all denominations. Here's my post again; .] "Several scientific methods thus emerged from the medieval Muslim world by the early 11th century, all of which emphasized experimentation as well as quantification to varying degrees." - Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ History_of_scientific_method Till date, science is still being developed upon. italo: Infact, modern scientific method suggest that those mentioned above aren't still enough, more recently inductions and deductions and even falsifibility etc are necessary for valid conclusions...some of which are not part of what Bacon developed. It largely proves that Bacon only developed on what was already existing and the whole scientific process is still being developed upon. Look, scientific method, the scientific methods, scientific methodology refer to essentially the same thing that has been around for a long time and being continually developed upon by many people. So, I am not 'deliberately lying' as accused italo: "The Church teaches no wrong" Many of who they've inspired have taught "science" wrongly, so why ascribe it to the Church? You may say the Church teaches no wrong in "faith and morals" but it doesn't change the fact that it has inspired people who taught wrongly. italo: It is hypocrisy and self deceit when you Corrected. Can we agree that you're trying to take credit for someone's work if you can't prove that they're Roman Catholics? italo: In that case, do you acknowledge that you mentioned the good deeds of non catholics when you were mentioning the good deeds of Catholicism?

italo: It is hypocrisy when you say the roman catholic church does/has done good and evil...and you list the good and refuse to list some of the numerous evil....and even claiming to be tired to list them only for you to return in less than 12 hours with other epistles of good. It is a lie when you allege that I'm trying to take the glory for another person's work. It is a lie when you say that the catholic church 'invented' science. It is a lie when you say Bacon 'invented' scientific methods when history has it that; "Several scientific methods thus emerged from the medieval Muslim world by the early 11th century, all of which emphasized experimentation as well as quantification to varying degrees." - Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ History_of_scientific_method Infact, scientific methods/science has been around for over 1500years BC. It is hypocrisy when you describe the work of priests who are scientists as 'the work of the roman Catholic church.' I wonder when a good individual work becomes the work of catholicism while evil works of priests remain their individual work. It is hypocrisy and self deceit when you refuse to claim that catholicism is christianity yet fail to prove that Kepler and Boyle were roman catholics. It is hypocrisy and self deceit to claim that catholicism is christianity and post that; "According to 100 Years of Nobel Prize (2005), a review of Nobel prizes awarded between 1901 and 2000, 65.4% of Nobel Prize Laureates, have identified Christianity in its various forms as their religious preference (423 prizes).[84] Overall, Christians have won a total of 78.3% of all the Nobel Prizes in Peace,[85] 72.5% in Chemistry, 65.3% in Physics,[85] 62% in Medicine,[85] 54% in Economics[85] and 49.5% of all Literature awards.[85]" Yet, you fail to prove that those 'Christians' were roman catholics. 1 Like |
