hopefulLandlord:

my reply is inconsequential here, I'm just telling muttleylaff that the answer to that is not as cut and dry as he (probably) thinks

The Pope is a Hellenist. Christians don't worship idols.

hopefulLandlord:
analize701 would answer NO to this question

Is the Pope a Christian?

DeepSight:

Merci

Welcome good sire.

Who will open the new topic, so we can follow it from there.
The topics title could be anything, it could be, PRACTICAL EVIDENCE - ATHEISTS VS GOD LOVERS !!

The content should be about the challenge'; PrecisionFx : says it can only be dealt with by Psychologists/Psychiatrists and therapy and drugs that will take years.
"""A women is suffering from anxiety, depression, irrational fears, nightmares, fear of the dark, uncontrollable anger, etc, etc which is clearly symptoms of demonic possession

God lover will prove that it is demonic possession with a 2 minute cure.

Butterflyl1on, Sonofthunder, Kingebukasblog and Felixomor will sacrifice their time to help. I will speak to my bank manager meanwhile.

I will just observe.

Mujtahida:

You see I know her strategy all too well. My moniker sounds Muslim. But I am not a Muslim, never been a Muslim and never will be. I was once a Christian. I was Secretary of my campus fellowship, Secretary of a redeem church. Baptised in the holy Spirit and I have gone through the whole rigmarole of Christianity. I am acquainted with the faith cos I wasn't just a church goer. I sought God, read my Bible, I read the best of Christian authors from the early church, through to Charles Spurgeon, to watchman Nee, Kenneth Hagin, Austin Sparks, listened to Joseph Prince, Creflo Dollar, Joyce Meyer etc. Not to boast but if I hide my present beliefs and talk to you about Christianity, other Christians will say it's the Holy Spirit speaking through me. But right now at a point where I don't just believe in the bible God anymore. I am a Deist sort of.
So I don't know why she comes on my post to accuse me of stuffs I know nothing about. There was a time some Christians were mocking Allah. And I intervened pointing out to them that just as they(the Christians) are mocking Allah for being an idol, so also is Jehovah an idol. I concluded by saying let liberty reign, let each worship his own God. That is what this ungracious female is accusing me as attacking Christians.

She cannot withstand the fact that others have a different believe. So once she sees a thread where people are having discussions like we are having, she will try her utmost to create chaos. I have never seen a more mean hearted and uncharitable female. I have had discussions with Christians here and we talked as matured people without bitterness or gripe. I have had enough of her insolence.

You sound like a jilted girl. Get a life.

DeepSight:


Thank you for being gracious. Its not bad. Cant wait to start off 2018....

There was never any hard feelings.

2018 has began for me already.

ScienceWatch:
I mean the proposal for the challenge. You did offer to help with it. hey.

Mention me when the thread is up. lol

ScienceWatch:
AAaaaaaaaah ! You are brave indeed. I sense a spirit of a warrior. Feel free to splash your proposal over the world wide web.

You eh?

DeepSight:


I really enjoyed sparring with him though.

Sorry Analize that I have been such a jerk towards you this year. I am not always like that.

It's okay. How's the Season going?

ScienceWatch:
I am lost, thanks for pointing that out. Now can we do a practical test that will prove your point once and for all time to a world-wide audience?

This challenge wont be a theoretical challenge that Atheists live for, but real life test run by a God-hater and a believer. If you ready let me know. You may suggest your own rules.

I will ask Vaxx, Kingebukasblog, Butterflyl1on, Sonofthunder, Felixomor, Analize701, Sarassin and others to help plan this.

I'm game.

DeepSight:


What! How dare you?

That fugitive Viaro, who has since gone into hiding. . . . where that nigga by the way?

He didn't last long in Nairaland. That was when Nairaland had reasonable mines.

izzyybothe17:


am a new comer Bro. . .

Welcome.

Mujtahida:

Jesus Christ! I will ignore you. But for the sake of others prove your accusation. Dig out one post where I attacked Christians in support of Islam. ]Do it or forever keep your disgusting mouth out of my posts. I have been patient with you. I am not a Christian, I am not a Muslim. It's not your issue. Don't ever quote me again

It won't be long, i will call you out for this.

MuttleyLaff:
I am sorry if I came on the defensive

As I earlier said, I dont know Freeze from Adam, nonetheless, it's a good concept
Here is the idea behind the low-down on TAP Challenge (i.e. Tithe against Poverty Challenge)

Starting with Mr/Mrs/Ms X.
Mr/Mrs/Ms X, looks around, identifies a neighbour whom to reduce his/her poverty
The lack might be:
unable to pay kids tuition fees, unable to pay house rent, unable to settle hospital bills, unable to raise startup capital etcetera

10% of Mr/Mrs/Ms X's finances is given to pay for cancelling out one of the lacks
after this, Mr/Mrs/Ms X, passes the challenge to another person, by publicly calling out or naming the person to do similar to their neighbour

The challengee, does exactly what the challenger, earlier did, similarly identify a lack and use his/her finance 10% to clear it off
then finds another person to challenge to repeat for another neighbour to have his/her lack alleviated

Imagine this going the rounds, and later on, having Otedola turn up being a challengee
The implication is, that, Otedola will look around to see what his neigbour lacks, this could be:
lack of motorable roads, lack of health care facilities, lack of kindergarten/elementary/secondary/tiertiary education facilities etcetera
Otedola now puts down 10% of his finance to cover the cost of reducing one or two of the lack(s)
Nominates another person, maybe MTN's Adenuga,
Adenuga then does the role before calling someone else out
Before we know it, all these millionares and billionaires will be challenging out each other for the TAP Challenge
and thereby get to be using 10% of their finances to reduce the poverty and/or challenges of their neighbours

There is no warrant for this
as you can never make your brother angry

okay oo. lol.

MuttleyLaff:
Is it because of the self confessed forming brood of vipers? Bwahahaha

You got that right.

MuttleyLaff:
Yes ooo

Get rid of the grimace
God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

Yikes.
Man, an signing out of here. it's been good mingling in here, but, i'm out. good nite.

Mujtahida:

I knew you were going to come at me. I am not a Muslim, never have been and will never be. Why you so insecure and rude. Can't you pretend as a Christian to be civil. So much for Christianity

Oh i forgot that a Christian is everybody else's opposition. You are not a muslim but you are found everywhere attacking Christians in support of Islam.

Gerarahia.

MuttleyLaff:
Yes, according to Jesus, there is

To cuddle a snake? You need to see the look on my face.

MuttleyLaff:
This is like asking, is the pope a christian?

No. Is the Pope a Catholic?

izzyybothe17:



Is seun an atheist?

Let me run and check how long you have been on nairaland. Hmmm. ***Closemymouth***

LotusFan:


Nice perspective, thanks for sharing

Thanks for sharing what? It is a muslim. He has a koran in his hands and he is here claiming whatever.

Mujtahida:

Used to be a Christian too but dropped it off. The bolded expresses just how I look at this word of God thing. Consciousness, living and ever flowing is the word of God not the dead letters of a book. Those words in a book was God's word for David, for Paul, for John. It came to them fresh. I do not read that Abraham read a bible or Moses too. So also every man must hear God for himself. I too carry the word of my own God within. God's word to me is my consciousness. Once I am dead it ends. That's why it's called the living word of God.

Hey Muslim, take your mouth outa here. When people are having a conversation, Muslims keep quiet.

daveP:
lol perhaps they need him to use his italian opera tone before the shrills would break their headsets.

My gentle Saviour shall return with a sound of the Trumpet blasting out loud, at that, noone shall claim they they didn't hear Him.

MuttleyLaff:
There is a time and place for everything
including when and when not to "cuddle" with serpents

Is there a time i shd cuddle a serpent? No, thanks.

Sarassin:

Being a Yoga practitioner has very little to do with serpents. It is true that Patanjali, the author of the Yoga Sutra is reputed to have landed on the cusp of his mother as a little snake, but when you consider that the authorship of that work goes back to even before the time of Jesus, the mythical imagery is well understood, in other words it is a myth. It is ridiculous for anyone to present it as fact.

Sure other sages may wish to reflect that imagery, besides the image of the serpent is prevalent in virtually all religions of the world.

Can't we leave Jesus out sometimes? Oh My dear Master don suffer.

Sarassin:


A lot of what is contained in that article is beyond belief.

I have read other articles from different writers too and i have seen their Sages. All have serpents around them.

Me and serpents don't curdle so well.

daveP:
you ehn!

My brother, Jesus have been shouting for 2000years now, yet these people remain dead. Do the want my Master vocal cord destroyed?

Seun:

Why can’t Jesus just take a deep breath and speak loudly? This works for me when people can’t hear me.

He did, probably you were drunk and slept off, so didn't hear Him.

LoJ:

We don't drink cold water over here... At least most people don't. The weather already is so cold that, you really do not want to take anything cold

Oh, correction, take a glass of hot water then. lolzzz. Just be good mate.
