hahahahahaha...this got me laughing hard...
Guy...you are a clown and a child in scientific knowledge...thats a compliment!

Clown. by the time i was putting Science into practise you were still using Diapers

If you had knowledge of Science or anything close to that , you could have given me the origin of matter and energy.

So crawl back to your Mum and ask her to change your Diapers. leave Science for those who can comprehend it.

Thats the difference between the nigerian constitution and christian dogmatic and docile laws.

If and when a Nigerian break the law, if he or she is caught, that person is trialled and punished according to the laid down law.

Can this be said for christianity, whose adherents like I said, flout, disgrace, abuse and taint the very laws of christianity?.

Really. Things are going bit stable, well thank goodness you said 'bit' because the country is anything but stable, given the cold hostilities between christians, moslems and other religion, i'd say this country is sitting on a keg of gun powder, waiting to explode.

Sentiment! Christians discredit christianity with their actions, not me. Remember, "action speak louder than words".

The armed robbers who changed from their ways didn't change because o christianity, I tell you this, they changed because they want to be shielded from a more prudent and harsh law, which is the nigerian law. It punishes offenders (sinners) devoid of their religious affiliation.

There again your story is non sequitor. The fact that the inhabitants of that Island don't eat the man mean they're not cannibals. For if they were, they would have eaten the man and still read the Bible.

Thats why no one takes u atheists serious. you talk from both sides of your mouth.
You just accused religeon of holding Africans down mentally, and yet you say christainity is not doing anything to offenders of Christain laws compared to Civil laws.

Mind you that christain laws were never ment to replace civil laws. you think you know more than the US Supreme court that Adopted the ten commandments as part of their laws.even did a Scuplture of Moses with the 10Laws in their Supreme Court.

if the robber changed becos of fear of nigeria civil laws? why do we still have thousands of robbers in government and within the masse?



You think people just wakeup and decide to change?

Your opinion about the Cannibals. show that you are naive when it comes to World cultures,poiltics and history. if you have knoweledge of what you are saying you know the difference b/ w those countries past and present

Really? Then why does the bible tell you how to beat your slaves? That thread was debunked cleanly.


Also, the White men that took slaves from Africa were christians.

I originally assumed it to be some "Fad Movement."

I was shocked to find out that Oyinbos had known all about them the whole time.

The STONE OF SCONE under the Queen of England's Throne is the ROCK Moses watered the Tribes of Israel with, during the Exodus. (Does that mean the monarchs wear rubber panties? Sorry could not resist.)

And to who was it given? Remember the inspired Word:

Sin was [committed] in the world before the Law [was given], but sin is not charged [against anyone] when there is no law [against it]. 14 Yet death ruled [over mankind] from Adam to Moses [the Lawgiver], even over those who had not sinned [c]as Adam did. Adam is a type of Him (Christ) who was to come [but in reverse—Adam brought destruction, Christ brought salvation].
Romans 5:13,14

The point from the above is that Moses is the one referred to as the Lawgiver, meaning before his ministry, the law, as we know it, was not given. Besides, John also speaks on this wise:
For the Law was given through Moses, but grace [the unearned, undeserved favor of God] and truth came through Jesus Christ. John 1:17

Any claims of the law being before Moses is to directly contradict this.

You obviously skipped more than a dozen classes in your days. You lack the understanding to detect or appreciate an inferred comment.

In you lied in your previous posts by asserting that Europeans shaved their hair as a fad but I shamed you with a factual reference from an authorized source to prove hair shaving was deemed a scorn or an insult.

Blacks were the only race who never saw male hair-shaving in the negative light as reaffirmed in the web link article. Over time, the disrepute with came with hair shaving faded into thin air like your mum who fled after dumping you at birth at a deserted street corner.

You're a disgrace only death would erase, a scum only earthworms would mingle with, a cursed toad a princess would never kiss!

Right here you've been undressed and cast into the dungeon of stupidity.

You are a big fool. I showed you historic records that shows that Europeans or ancient whites shaved their hair , without been influenced by blacks.You could not refute it.

Scholar8200:
In the New testament, the call is to worship in spirit and in truth, hence time and place is not important. The OT was characterised by a Physical Temple and other outward forms but Jesus revealed the desire of the Father of true worshippers. That is why the early Church break bread every day and from house to house.

If you consider this:

And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
Acts 20:7

and

Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
1 Corinth 16:2

The first day of the week was the Lord's day and that was there meeting time.

Just like the Lord's Supper fulfilled the Passover and the latter was to be done once a year but the former as often as they could, the resurrection of Jesus on that first day of the week marked, for them, a new beginning. Jesus , the Substance, had fulfilled the Law hence all that mattered was Him and abiding in Him.

Upon the first day of the week never indicated they worshiped on that day. rather that day was choosen becos it was not the day of rest.

You confuse the meaning of worship in spirit. Who said place and time does not matter.how can you worship God in Spirit when you violate his commandments.
remember that Jesus will hold people who violates his laws.
Thus have ye made the
commandment of God of none effect by your
tradition." "In vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men."
Matthew 15:6, 9. "Her priests have violated my
law." "And her prophets have daubed them with untempered mortar, ... saying, Thus saith the Lord God, when the Lord hath not spoken."
Ezekiel 22:26, 28.
Misguided men of long years past
announced that God's holy day was changed from
Sabbath to Sunday. God predicted it would
happen, and it did. This error was passed on to our unsuspecting generation as gospel fact.
Sunday-keeping is a tradition of uninspired men and breaks God's law, which commands Sabbath-
keeping. Only God can make a day holy. God
blessed the Sabbath, and when God blesses, no man can "reverse it." Numbers 23:20.

Europeans have always seen haircuts as a demotion and a punishment amongst men. A physical indication of a man's fall from grace. They wore their hair long until contemporary times when the status quo changed.

African men, on the other hand, preferred to cut their hair low and it slowly cut on and became for than a fad.

" WESTERN WORLD

Germanic tribes (from Germany) settled in England after it was invaded and abandoned by Roman troops in the 5th Century AD. The Germanics made new customs, that separated them from the Roman Empire as their hair held great significance like the Indian and African tribes. Military leaders would tie their hair in a knot atop their head to appear more intimidating to enemies as it symbolised authority, to lose ones hair would to bring shame on the individual ..."

Secondly the Germans kept hair like the Indians and AFRICANS. does the bold look like people who kept lowcut.

You killed your own argument ,Typical Black Nog.

OLAADEGBU:
Sabbath in the Bible means rest. God set the pattern for mankind to rest after working for 6 days. This is why we still have the 7 week day since creation. This was made for man to rest and remember our Creator and worship our redeemer. The word Sabbath doesn't mean Saturday, Sunday or even the Seventh day, it only means rest. It means if you work for 6 days take a kit kat on the 7th before you break down, and while you are resting remember your Creator and redeemer and worship Him. There are nations where you Saturday and Sunday are working days are you saying that Christians should not work on those days? or that they should not live in those countries? Let us not be legalistic, this attitude is what Jesus came to correct when the Pharisees made rules for folks not to do any work on Sabbath days but they would definitely not allow their sheep that fell into a ditch on such days to die without rescuing them. The Sabbath was made for man's benefit and not for man to be enslaved to the Sabbath's rules (Mark 2:27).



Love is one of the fruit of the Spirit after we


have believed the finished work of Christ on the Cross.

Read Romans 13:8-10; Galatians 5:13-18; Matthew 22:37-40; 7:12



I reiterate my point by quoting the excerpt below:

Do you know that the same way a man's birthday cannot be changed ,so is the Sabbath day. it is a memorial day to mark when God accomplished his work of creating and restoring the world.
If you change a birthday from 1st to 2nd it is not the same thing. is like one misquoting his birthday by one day.


In all of scripture, the seventh day of the
week, the Sabbath, is the only day which has
been declared by God Himself to be blessed,
sanctified (set aside for a holy purpose), in
memorial to His creation.

DoctorAlien:
OLAADEGBU,

Which day did the Israelites keep as the Sabbath in the Bible?

You skipped my question: how can we love GOD?

o
They kept Saturday the sabbath .
John20:1

The first day of the week comes Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, to the sepulcher, and sees the stone taken away from the sepulcher.

MightySparrow:
5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. 6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
Rom 14:5-6


If in the wisdom of early believers, tgey agreed on Sunday to worsbip fine. What Sabbathwas to the Jews is not what it is for Chriztians today. Jesus Himself is our Sabbath.





9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. 10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. 11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Heb 4:9-11

This not what Paul meant by one esteemeth one day above the order.
To understand the Bible you need to look at it from every possible angle and take into consideration every Bible verse concerning the issue.Paul cannot instruct people to worship on a day different from what God commanded.

I will get you more details on this topic.

How is the presence of shrines contributing to the decay in the society? Neve forget, every man has the right to practice any religion of his choosing. So you screaming the presence of shrines is wrong mean you don't want to come to terms with reality.

The question is, do the adherent of christianity practice what it preach?

Christianity, if you've failed to notice, is a tool, just like to gun which people use to perpetrate unspeakable evil.

Christianity preaches against everything bad, but those who say they're christians are known to be worse off... it's just like democracy, it breeds capitalism and pave way for people to be cheated and used. That's the starting point which forms the basis of hypocrisy which many christians now take after.

How does that make Christainity bad. how many times do you blame Nigerian Consistution for poor governance in Nigeria?
People Would do what they like irrespective of religeon.
You fail to understand that things are a bit stable becos of Christain religeon , without it you will know the difference. You always look for ways to discredit christainity when they are billions of things they should be commended for. millions of Sinners have been changed including armed robbers ,who you could have been their next victim.


You are like an An American skeptic who was visiting an island whose
natives were originally cannibals. When he
spotted an old man reading the Bible, he
ridiculed him for reading a book "full of myths
which had already been exposed." The native
smiled at him and said, "My friend, be grateful we do believe this book. Otherwise, we would be serving you for dinner." The Bible really does change people, and this amazing fact confirms its inspiration.

Low haircuts are synonymous with black men.

Whites who used to cut their hair low in times past did so as a symbol of demotion and humiliation (the Vikings and Vandals of Europe) and Asians who did were observing religious rituals (Buddhist monks).

Blacks made low haircuts fancy.


You know what's worse than a proud African like me? It's a dimwitted, accursed, sweeping-generalization-assuming ignorant buffoon like you.

Clown. whites had always shaved and cut their hair before they blacks. even as old as in Bible time.

King James Bible Genesis 41:14
Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they
brought him hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved himself, and changed his raiment, and came in unto Pharaoh.

Even Samson's parents were instructed not to allow a razor upon his Head. which means shaving was not a new thing to them.

Bottom line, matter can both be created (Pair production) and destroyed (matter-antimatter annihilation). But energy and momentum must always be conserved. Hurrah for science!!!

Matter and energy are different things which must come from something .They cannot just appear.

Christainity is corrupted thats is a fact. that does not mean that Christainity is wrong. the important thing is Christainity and the Bible preaches against pastors or clergy collecting material things from member. it preaches about hardwork and commitment ,it also preaches about patrotism.it condems stealing(Corruption) and many more , all this are in the Bible.i just don't have time to post the verses.

The Promise of Heaven

The most important aspect of Christianity for the enslaved was the promise of heaven — a promise made by plantation owners. This idea preached the notion that for all the suffering that is done in the physical world, your soul will be preserved and you will experience a hardship-free spiritual life, according to Slave Resistance, A Caribbean Study. What this did for enslaved Black people was give them hope for the future. Converted enslaved people’s belief in heaven allowed some to passively resist their plantation owners and focus on the afterlife. With that belief, all of the beatings and lashings meant nothing because in heaven the enslaved person would be rewarded and the master would be punished.

https://atlantablackstar.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/cottonculture-1875.jpg

Constant Work

The vigorous, constant plantation work assigned by owners left the enslaved people hardly any time for themselves, and that included religious activities, according to christianitytoday.com. Some plantation owners required the enslaved to work even on Sunday, an intentional move to break them away from their religious regimen and softening them over time to accept whatever religion was presented to them by the plantation owners.

https://atlantablackstar.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/1-slaves.jpg

Blocked Communication

Plantation owners separated the enslaved people who spoke the same tribal language so they could not worship together and could be taught Christianity at the same time, according to an article titled The Inconceivable State of African-American Christianity on christianitytoday.com.

https://atlantablackstar.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/mgs180351.jpg

Separated Families

Moving family members from one another broke down the spirit of the enslaved, as they believed wholeheartedly in worshipping together, according to academia.edu in a study on the role of religion in Africa. With their family units broken, their African beliefs were broken, too, making them more willing to accepting another religion.

https://atlantablackstar.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/100.jpg

Demonstration of Power

When Africans were captured and brought to America by the Europeans, they often attributed the Europeans’ power to the power of the Europeans’ God. Therefore, it was often easy for some enslaved Africans to begin to worship the victorious Christian God in place of their own gods.

https://atlantablackstar.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Christianity-Slavery.jpg

Catholics’ Conversions

Often, African practices were brought into Christianity in new and interesting ways as a way of luring the enslaved into Christianity and away from their religion, according to an article at the Mariners Museum called Captive Passage. Enslaved Africans in Roman Catholic nations often converted easily because of Catholicism’s ability to accommodate and absorb other beliefs.

Mixing of Religious Practices
Symbols and objects, such as crosses, were conflated with charms carried by Africans to ward off evil spirits. Christ was interpreted as a healer similar to the priests of Africa, according to PBS’ Slavery and the Making of America. In the New World, fusions of African spirituality and Christianity led to distinct new practices among enslaved populations, including voodoo or vodun in Haiti and Spanish Louisiana. Although African religious influences were also important among Northern Black people, exposure to Old World religions was more intense in the South, where the density of the Black population was greater.

https://atlantablackstar.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/t1larg.slave_.gi_.jpg

Social Control

In the Caribbean colonies of Cuba and Saint-Domingue, religion was taught to enslaved Africans as a means of social control more than as a means to edify their souls, according to an article titled Slave Religion in Central and South America. Especially in the colonies’ early days, while the plantations were small and the enslaved population was not huge, plantation owners used religion to teach obedience. In Cuba and Brazil, Catholic saints were often equated with gods from Africa — generating familiarity for the enslaved.
