Fortune109:
Nairaland now operates like a blog...

How?

OcVoice:
An older friend, who could pass as a dad to me

I saw 2 beautiful kids, a boy (about 4 years) and a girl (about 2 years) playing inside the bar. I asked my friend's wife and she said one of her customer had issues with his wife and the wife left him with the kids.

Bro, please check your email and contact me urgently.

Haaaa....Nigeria....is this a President?

Sirheny007:
20billion years ago?

5000 years ago.

sleek82:
In Geologic time scale, humans were not in existence 2 billion years ago

I was referring to Genesis 6 which was about 5000 years ago

etrange:
Which one have you found?

Many sir. An ancient wall in Oyo town when someone was digging the ground and for his foundation and discovered an already built wall deep under ground.

yanabasee:
Very soon, they will discover a fossil of a gigantic human of 20-30ft tall that lived on earth 2billion years ago......

They might have already found some. Possible descendants of the giants mentioned in Genesis 6. They were probably 9ft tall.

Nigerians whats going on? Why can't find and preserve our own artifacts?

onyxo76:
come to mega trends at oau ,they already have the specs for ds 160 form photos

Thanks.

Spanishmilf:
WhatsApp reduce picture quality, next time change it to doc and send

Gracias. Nagode.

fkj950ax:
You can actually use a phone. I did for mine.

Make sure there is adequate natural light in the room, not too much, not too little. Make sure your background is plain as in the guidelines. Look into the camera.
Then don't use WhatsApp to send the picture (It resizes photo pixels). Attach as an email, or if using your phone to fill the application, attach directly.
Try not to use all the photo editing apps to touch the photo, EXCEPT to crop if too large and out of focus.

If these don't work, just find a properly set up photo studio that will give you the photos as soft copy without being treated/touched up or watermarked

Thanks. Guess its WhatsApp that messed it up.

Beverlyhills:
Use the photograph dimension as shown on the website. Any professional photographer should be able to size and give you a soft copy to upload.

Thanks.

s3nn2x:
Laptop Webcam pictures on a white background always works for me.

Thanks.

Please can anyone direct me to where in Lagos or Osun an accurate picture for the DS160 can be taken. A friend went to take a photograph today and it was instantly rejected upon online submission.
He got this error message

Sadteen:
This means that someone or something created God going by your logic. So who or what created god? Who or what created what or who created god? It is endless...

If you call someone God-then He is GOD and doesnt need to be created.

Unless he is not God and is just an alien being that has existed for billions of years and evolved to an all powerful status like the Q Continuum beings in Star Trek (the Next Generation)

You're sick. I swear. Coronavirus and Lassa fever dey do collabo for your body

Dont mind dem. If its in their favor its good. If not; its bad.
They forget that truth is truth; whether it favors you or not.

1Sharon:
So you believe dinosaurs existed and you believe god decided to magically conjure humans( adam and eve) just as they are?

And that is how the human population came about?

You're wrong!

Did god create the dinosaurs too??

1) Yes Dinosaurs existed. The evidence is on every continent.
2) The God of the Bible doesn't do magic.
3) Is that a question or assumption?
4) All things were created by God.

1Sharon:
If you calculate Adam's creation right up to Jesus death, it gives about 6000 years...

Yes age of Adam and the human race.
Gen 1: 2 and Isaiah 24: 1 point to a gap before man that could be billions of years and an existence that we dont fully understand yet, BUT may explain dinosaurs and the 2 billion years required for crude oil to form.
Also Gen 1: 28..God tells man to REPLENISH the Eartha.
Replenish means to re fill. Meaning something was there before, no longer there and needs to be re stocked

Freehuman:
Yes , a design needs a designer.

Yes, there is a design in the universe and the human body.

Those two answers allow a wide view in finding deeper understanding of the Universe.
From there we can agree to disagree about the Designer or designers.

Thats where Faith and evidence either diverge or converge.

Science itself is based on faith. Everything in this world is based on faith in something or someone.

Freehuman:
Okay Boss, if I agree with you that there is a Creator who designed the Universe just because something cannot exist without being created it follows directly that the Creator cannot exist in his beautiful form and design without being designed.

This would mean that a designer created a designer that designed a designer that designed the universe. That would form an unending chain of designers since anything that exists must be designed.

Thats another discussion entirely.
If you agree that 1 + 1 is 2. It won't be hard to discuss the probability that 2 minus 1 is 1.

Put religion aside for a moment.

Do we agree that a design needs a designer?
Do we agree that there is design in the Universe and the human body?

The Big Bang theory itself was a silent affirmation by non God believing scientists that the Universe had a beginning and a start point. They just wont accept that there was an intelligent being or force behind that beginning.

[quote author=Freehuman post=86493297]If you didn't say that God created himself it logical implies that he was created. If God was created therefore there is something more powerful than God and that's the Creator who created God. If you reject this assertion it means that God you agree that God created himself.[/uquote]

You brought up the term and concept of God.
My assertion is that the Universe is not an accident.

A study of the Solar system alone shows design: perfect location of Earth, moon acting as a deflector; solid inner planets; gaseous outer planets; Heliosphere that forms a boundary around the Solar system; Ort cloud.

Freehuman:
However , you believe that there is an exception to that assertion . Your exception is that a God ,you have never seen, created himself out of nothing and proceeded to create everything while the exception of the person you argued with is that the Earth that he sees everything germinate from created itself and therefore created everything.



From an objective perspective your logic and and the logic of the person you quoted follow the same sequence except that yours cannot be proven. At least we have seen plants grow from the Earth but we have never seen life fall from the sky.

No i haven't said that; you assumed that. Or can you show me where i said that?

My assertion is that there is design in the Universe and in the human species and design needs a designer.

I am really suprised though that this is news to Nigerians- especially young eductated Nigerians on Nairaland. You guys watch too much Premiership and BBN. If you watched more scientific and education stuff; you would have heard about the discovery and excavation of the 10,000 year old ruins of Gobi Teki structures.

Freehuman:
Thank you Sir.

Please Sir, who created God?

Why do you believe that something you haven't ever seen (God) created itself but fail to believe that something so large and houses everything (Earth) you can see also created itself ?

The questions are in accordance with your assertion.

I dont force anyone to believe in the Bible or Qurans version of God or even God as we believe him to be.
But the great biologist and scientist Louis Pasteur proved that life can only come from life.
And common sense shows us that books dont write themselves; houses dont build themselves etc
If you wont only not believe me - but infact recommend me for Yaba Left if i tell you a house built itself or a Plane evolved from a junk yard of metals and scrap; why on earth would you believe the Universe is an accident or the human race came into being by chance.

Ijawwomaninoyo:
Na lie! This is the oldest well in the world.

Guy abeg, this is dangerous...people shouldn't be allowed near there

NwaAmaikpe:





If it was in Africa, I'd have claimed it was dug by my paternal greatest great great grand father for his mistress.
Because that man really did very foolish things for women.

But it seems everyday brings a clearer realization that the age of Jesus and the creation of the earth as detailed by the bible is just like another APC propaganda.

Is religion

What if?
What if?
We may never know, but just like the cowards say, it is better to err on the side of caution.

Great are your works oh Lord.

Oga dont confuse yourself; no where in the Bible are you told the age of the Earth- all you are told is the age Adam died. You humans claimed all that.

There can be no design without a designer. No product, without a a producer.

We have a long way to go in Nigeria.
I am not against Innoson; infact i want all levels of government to patronize them including the police.
But a Governor who resumed Office barely a month ago is giving out cars to extremely comfortable top civil servants who are definitely millionaires.
Is this captured in the budget?
Whats wrong with their existing vechicles
Of what need is this distribution and how will it benefit the good people of Imo State.

The saddest part of all this is the average citizen jubilating.

Nathayas:
If he had not. repented would you have forced him to surrender his arms and armunirions.

Repentance under the law does not exclude consequence and punishment. It just means justice maybe tempered with mercy.

Justice must ALWAYS be done- or there can NEVER be peace.

Abiodun86:
What are u saying? Those Niger deltal people that were given amnesty the other day, were they punished?

Chai, wahala dey. Crimes like murder and rape must ALWAYS be punished bro.

Looking for web designers able to do this.

jimyjames:
What law do boko haram terrorist face before been released by FG?

That is equally bad, infact worse and that is why Nigeria is where it is.

Wait. Whats going on here? If this person you recovered this from is a robber or kidnapper- they still have to face the law irrespective of the fact they have now joined their Church else you are an accomplice after the fact.
Now the Courts and the law may have mercy on them; but they must first face that law.
This is not someone that stole a goat from a neighbors house; this is someone that terrorised other human beings and possibly killed and injured.
