fuke: Why would you say that?

This man fought the civil war with veterans like Brg. Adekunle,
Gen Bajowa, Gen. Theo Danjuma, Gen Obasanjo, late Gen Murtala Muhammed and others

They kept this country together for you guys to have the chance to be
called Nigerians. Why would anybody talk to and about them like this?

God help Nigeria, if these are the stuff our future leaders are made of.

Christianity Etc › Re: Frequent Flogging Of Kids Does It Help In Discipling Them? by advocate666: 9:21am On Nov 03, 2012
There is no manual on good parenting and what is good for the geese might not always be good for the gender. However I must note that flogging children was never in African culture until the european missionaries brought it to us and used biblical references to enforce it.
Flogging is bad for a lot of reasons. It is in my opinion, a very bad way of parenting. It leaves emotional and psychological scars on the child. It is so bad that the europeans who brought it to us have all droped it and made flogging a criminal offense in their countries.
If you treat a child like a goat, he will behave like a goat. We are mentally and physically harming our children. Nothing good can come out of that. It is not a surprise that we as a nation full of flogged individuals are always making the wrong decision and are moving backwards.
Flogging is a sign of failure to get a message across to a child. Your child needs communication, not violence.
Children's brains work very differently from adults' own, so when you think a child has done bad thing that deserves physical violence, the child does not think so and if you go ahead and flog him, it creats a disconnect in his brain. This disconnect have immediate consequence: hate. But more worrying is the long term mental consequences of these actions.

Christianity Etc › Re: A Wise Man Is Not Cowed By Knowledge But Uses It To Guide Him by advocate666:
italo: You say that "science has already declared 'rising from DEATH' false."

Then you say that "DEATH is a PERMANENT (lasting for eternity or till the end of time) cessation of all biological functions.

How could science have declared it false when science has to wait till the end of time to be sure of "death."



..."According to that definition." But not everybody thinks that death is always a permanent cessation of all biological functions.



Cloning of cells is possible today even though it was unimaginable yesterday. Now do you know what other unimaginable thing today will be possible tomorrow? Possibly, the mummies could actually be brought back to life. Not just cloning their cells.



There is no proof that it has been the SOLE definition from time immemorial. In the Bible, Martha and many others didn't see death as you see it. She believed her brother was dead and she believed he could live again.



...And doctor Tobin had both! - authority and documented evidence.
You just repeated yourself while exposing gross ignorance.
You seem to have a problem with the definition of the word, "permanent". When you understand that word, you'll understand death.

According to you,
a clinically dead person is dead.
a person in a coma is dead.
a person in a vegetative state is dead.
a body function shut off is death.
even a person holding his breath is dead.

And I am telling you that although some of these situation are not reversible with our technology today, they are not death.

No. The mummies can never be brought back to life because of many reasons which I won't go into now. But if you had studied ancient egypt mummification procedure, you should have known that the guts of the dead are removed before the drying process. This includes the brain which is liquefied first, then the stomach, liver, heart, kidneys, eyes, etc. The mummies are only dried flesh and bone. Such cannot be brought back to life.

You want to use the bible to justify an argument to me? This is what I mean by gross display of ignorance. I started by telling you that the bible is full of inaccuracies, but to justify these falsehoods, you use a disputed biblical falsehood of rising from the dead to justify rising from the dead. Try to think outside the bible. It's like telling everybody in the morning that the time is 10pm and showing them a broken watch to justify the wrong time.

Concerning your obsession with Dr. Tobin, I want to know: if another doctor confirms everything I said about death, would you agree with him?

A report from Maiduguri, Borno State, says a retired general and one of the heroes of Nigeria’s Civil War, General Mohammed Mamman Shuwa, has been killed. General Shuwa was shot dead this afternoon in his house at Mamman Shuwa Street, Gwange area of Maiduguri. The group of gun men did not take anything from the house.The killing came less than 24 hours after the Boko Haram announced a ceasefire, the group has said that it will stop all forms of attacks if all its members in custody of security agencies are released unconditionally. The group also named the CPC leader, General Muhammadu Buhari to head a six man team that will negotiate on its behalf at meetings which should take place in Saudi Arabia.

Christianity Etc › Re: A Wise Man Is Not Cowed By Knowledge But Uses It To Guide Him by advocate666:
italo: From that definition of death, we can not know for sure if anybody is dead or not. Since we have to be present at the end of time before we can ascertain whether the "cessation of biological functions" was actually 'permanent' or not.
If it is permanent, then it is permanent. If jesus's death was permanent, the he couldn't have risen. If he did rise, then it was not permanent and then not death according to that definition. Logic is really very hard for the godly.

italo: If you declare someone dead today, how are you to know that he cannot be revived after a year using whatever means. E.g I'm sure you'd say the mummies of Egypt are dead, or are they not? What happens if somehow, by scientific or spiritual means, they are revived tomorrow, you will then tell me that they weren't dead in the first place.

That brings me to this: hardly anything is ever certain in science, it is always seeking to understand. Even that definition of death can change tomorrow. Faith know that God has power over life and death. Science will only continue to try to understand. Faith is beyond the scope of science. Science doesn't even have the tools to test faith.
I like your argument about mummies. It is even possible to bring some "to life" today via cloning of their cells. That, however is not rising from the dead. It simply is reproduction. That is how everyone of us was made.

If the definition of death changes tomorrow, then it wouldn't be death as we know it today and certainly will not be death as narrated in the bible. However this definition change is highly unlikely as it has been the sole definifition from time immemorial.

italo: Doctor Tobin said Fabrice died. The other doctors didn't refute that claim. You are the only one in the whole world that I've heard that said Dr Tobin was carried away.

Anyway, I'll take the doctor's word over yours.
Here we go again with the appeal to authority argument against documented evidence. We know the method:argumentum ad verecundiam. Look it up.

italo: *perplexed* What has worshipping Muamba got to to with anything?

Okay let's handle your specifics one by one.

When did Science say "rising from the dead" is false?

And did doctors (scientists) say Fabrice Muamba was "dead" or not?
Science doesn't need to tell you things before you can use your common sense. It is simple logic: If you rise from dead, then you were never dead. Scientifically or otherwise. But let's look at what death really means.
Here is the scientific definition of death: the permanent cessation of all biological functions that sustain a living organism.
I hope this sinks in; or do you want me to describe "permanent" for you? [from this definition, science thus says that rising from the dead is false]

To answer your second question,
NO! Doctors did not say that Fabrice Muamba was dead.

There was this single Boltom team doctor, Dr Tobin, that got carried away and made sensational declaration to journalist who by profession would amplify anything. But this time around, even the sensationalist journalists took such declaration with a pinch of salt because all of them put the statement in quotation marks in order to deny that any such nonsense emanated from them.
Fabrice Muamba suffered a cardiac arrest which is one of the signs of death but is not death. Please do not confuse both. Cardiac arrest is treatable. Death is not.
Christianity Etc › Re: A Wise Man Is Not Cowed By Knowledge But Uses It To Guide Him by advocate666: 10:20am On Nov 02, 2012
italo: Science can never say categorically that certains things are true or false. Scientists keep learning and understanding new things everyday. So what was "false" yesterday can be "true" tomorrow and vice-versa.

And most of these instances are well beyond the scope of science so they cannot be declared wrong, only unfathomable.

I thought Fabrice Muamba rose from the dead. It was doctors that said, not me.
I give you specifics but you make general statements. Some things are facts that cannot change no matter what. None of those is "beyond the scope of science". Science has already declared them wrong, unless you want us all to bow down and start worshipping Fabrice Muamba. Do you?

Did you misunderstand deliberately?
I said that women are not my property to allow how to use their body. Nobody is forcing anybody.
This is a simple matter between adults: someone is willing to show her naked body, another is willing to pay to see it.
Wetin concern you inside? How is it harming anybody?
It is not for holders of public office to tell me what to do with my body as far as I'm not hurting anyone.
