Those type of reasoning doesn’t work with the Abrahamic religions.

That's like claiming Abrahamic religions are not subject to evolution. I beg to differ.

Amujale:
The point to consider is that Rome created Christianity out of the copying, plagiarism and fabrication of different concepts and philosophies around the world and sought to destroy the source of those concepts by ways that has been identified earlier.

Ancient Egyptian Mythology is more history than mythology.

"Ancient Egyptian Mythology" was not destroyed by the Romans. The Egyptians had completely forgotten their history and their myths were all over the place long before Romans arrived in Egypt. It was in fact this lack of organising of information which led to Egypts destruction and latter to the search for knowledge as noted in the building of some of the greatest libraries being built in Egypt. One sees the same destruction of our lesser organised (religious) knowledge and our adoption of western ways. Or do you see anyone seeking healing from osanyin instead of calling a doctor on a foreign made phone?

My own opinion is that these later myths are what, after suffering from the curse of forgetfulness, misunderstandings, misinterpretations, mistranslations and various agendas; became the Bible as we know it today. Its why I ask if you ever imagined a world without even that. It's not as if as many as learn the little they can from Christianity would learn anything from "Ancient Egyptian Mythology", or would we, in your opinion?

No, I do not agree that the point to consider is as you claim, "that Rome created Christianity out of the copying, plagiarism and fabrication of different concepts and philosophies around the world and sought to destroy the source of those concepts by ways that has been identified earlier", because the link I posted shows "copying, plagiarism and fabrication of different concepts and philosophies around the world" long before Romans did. The Egyptians, and everyone else created their gods and the smarter copied, plagiarized and fabricated from the different concepts and philosophies around the world and sought to build up concepts of their own from them. And the consequence is initially always the destruction of the less well armed (with books and knowledge in this case), until the conquered learn to think and reason, instead of just 'believing'.

As for the bit about pagan gods, derogatory, I get you, though I do not use it with the negative connotation you do, since I'm aware that Osiris, Apis, Zeus, Dionysus, Helios, Hades and Asclepius were all fiction and not real, just like Christ, who's mythology or unrealness is as irrelevant as their's, and who shall be refered to equally as derogatively as a "pagan god" by generations to come. I don't find it wise to ignore the 3000 or so years of religious evolution and concentrate on Romans.

Read the thread properly, it shows the origin of Serapis Christus and how the Romans assimilated his image and concepts into their Christianity.

Similar to Serapis Christianity, The Romans version is just as fake.

Christianity is a false concept.

I did read the link properly! A "potential for a transitory relationship between the various gods", it says, from "Pagan Gods (7)
Osiris, Apis, Zeus, Dionysus, Helios, Hades and Asclepius 3000 BC - 305 BC", to "Graeco Egyptian Gods.Serapis.Christus 305 BC - 325 AD", to "Christian God Jesus Christ (formerly Iesous Christos) 325 AD - Today". This clearly shows an evolving line of assimilation as one would expect amongst people in contact with each other who reflect and learn, which is the sole consequence of religion as a tool for organising people.

Amujale:
According to African history, Christianity is a false concept.

The only connection that links Christianity to Africa comes from the origin of some of the concepts of Christianity itself.

All the forms of Christianity are false concepts on numerous counts.

(a) Due to the fictitious natriuretic of all of their main characters and the obvious plagiarism the authors of the Christian bible have partaken.

(b) The Roman version of Christianity assimilated the original Christians of Serapis Christus of the Hellenistic religions.

Read the link I posted on the subject. It shows the origin of Serapis Christus as Egyptian. Or shall I say, my understanding is that it is. Correct me if I'm wrong and post sources please.

Amujale:
Jesus is one of the greatest falsehoods in all of Christendom, the other being Christianity itself.

The term “Christ” is fake.

The term Christianity is also fake.

As in the first people to refer to themselves as being Christians were from the Hellenistic religions; the followers and dignitaries of ‘Serapis Christus’ with their concepts of Soteriology.

Serapis Christus was an adaptation of a fabrication of a Greek god into Egypt Mythology; one that was maliciously made in honour Ptolemy(I) during his unjust dynastic rule of Egypt ca. 367 - 283 BCE.

The only claim you've made on this thread is that Jesus is fictional, and there is actually insufficient evidence for the truth of that statement and nor have you provided evidence further than assertions. You do know that some have done more research than you, actual historical, archeological etc work, and published books on the subject some of which some have also read, who can't yet decide if Jesus was real or not? Why woukd you think your assertions on a faceless forum is superior?

It is a 'Christian' attitude to believe the words read in a book and allow others to create crap in your head. And the worst of 'Christians' ask others to believe their assertions or the crap they make up and believe in their own heads! You don't know me so keep creating crap in your head to believe.

Amujale:
Give the thread one example of any of the facts given here by myself that came without the evidence to back them up.

Plus, its either you cant be bothered reading what is being said here or you are simply an untrustworthy person given that you some how associate a person that is revealing to the general public that Christianity is fake to himself be Christian.

I challenge you to refute any off the previous content, clearly they contain analytical and sometimes visual evidence.

Therefore, claiming that no evidence is there is in itself proof that you are a liar and a faker.

Give us a clear and definitive response to the lies you are peddling.

Now, that has been cleared up, back to the question posed by the thread.

Jesus did nothing because Jesus is a fictitious character, and in all reality, fictional characters cant does stuff.

Yet, we read fictional Things Fall Apart, and Animal Farm. Do the fictional beings in those do nothing?

Christianity Etc › Re: What Did Jesus Do? by budaatum(op): 5:54pm On Dec 15, 2019

Amujale:
Again, no substance, nothing reasonable in your response except for more gibberish.

When you seem fit to respond accordingly we'll take in from there.

For now, all you seem to display is a distain for common sense.

Reverse psychology isnt working for you, you began abusing whilst veering of on a tangent, and you had to be put back into your box.

So dont complain when you attack someone and that person fights back, take it on the chin and move on; given that you are the person who initiated a response as such.

There's no way all I write is gibberish. And if you take your time, you'd see that.

Christianity, or shall I say, the Abrahamic Religions, evolved out of Africa as syncretised in Egypt. Its a historical fact, and is pretty much what you are saying, though correct me if I misrepresent you. It's also fortunately detailed in biblical mythology, the unfortunate commonly known 'history' of the time. It wouldn't have been, if the earlier African writings had spread, but unfortunately, it didnt.

The Egyptians had a priestly class who kept knowledge to themselves which over time died off with them such that latter Egyptians believed superbeings came down from heaven and wrote the hieroglyphs and built the pyramids. If only they had educated the masses to read those heiroglyphs, can you imagine how great Africa would have been? Today, even, millions of us do not yet know anything about Egypt, or our own local history. And you fail to see that that is where the Bible comes in, to show what a story of a people looks like abd teach you how to discover your own. If we had not learnt yo read it we'd be further back in development, is my opinion.

You mentioned my view of Christianity earlier on, so I'll oblige, for what it's worth. I personally think it is a religion that is very easily manipulated by individuals sometimes for the good and for bad, but on the whole its done quite a lot of good considering the increase in life expectancies in nations that have adopted it.

Yes, Christianity's history is murky - walls of Jericho, Tower of Babel and the referenced in Scripture error of the Egyptians as narrated in the story of the Garden of Eden: a story of liberation distorted into the basis of enslavery "by the Romans" you would say. (And funny, I keep saying, because I see what you mean but wonder why you don't seem to wonder why the Jews themselves, long before the Romans, decided to tell Biblical myths to "deceive" themselves if not so they could have a record of their historical past as they knew it so that they don't get forgotten in history like the Egyptians were and have their dead dug up and paraded in museums like the Egyptians are, but have eternal peace like their book teaches them to have.)

There is a reason Jesus is said to have asked what truth is. An innocuous question but loaded with meaning and implication. A person who has not read would not know the sort of things you call truth. Christianity solves a problem Egypt had, and that still continues to destroy us today. Any God that asks anyone not to eat of the fruits of the garden of knowledge of good and evil is a tyrant, and a devil. And people who believe their gods tell them not to eat of the fruits of the tree of knowledge and evil will live shorter lifespans.

I'm going to do humble with you. Kindly recommend reading material on your topic so I can do home work please and accept my apology for insulting you. I did not mean "crap in head as an insult". It means things one choses to believe in one's head, as opposed to the things one has learnt by the use of ones senses; the latter being what I accuse you of if you'd pardon my choice of meanings.

Amujale:
Or the inexplicable questions that you ask yourself when shuffling in and out of your stance on Christianity.

There really is no point arguing with you because we already know your stance on the Abrahamic religions isnt stable.

Defending all the lies inside of Christianity eventhough you have been caught on many occasions accepting the fact that Christianity is
fake.

Nairaland rules do not require a post be to the person who responds. Others come here to read too, thankfully. And since this thread was created by me you should expect me to respond to as many posts as I wish to however I want.

You don't know my stance on Christianity. And no one is arguing with you. Nor was "crap in head an insult", as implied by my addition of "mind". But I guess one can be misunderstood so let me help you.

The Bible, which is what Christians worship, is a book, and books are not fake, even if they are historically, and in other ways, incorrect, and especially mythology, which a lot of the Bible is. And if the Romans did give the Bible, or anyone else for that matter, I'd be rather grateful to them personally. Just the thought of not having anything to read scares me.

The intention of the Bible is not to deceive, as you claim, but for one to learn skills of reading, and thinking, and reasoning from, and as suggested, where you likely learnt those skills yourself. Or do you see any other book being made available for people to learn from? Have you asked yourself what state we'd be in if we didn't have it? The only unfortunate here is the notion that it must be believed, but that's just an indication of the infant learning level of the reader who will go on to question their understanding someday just as you and many have done. Or would you claim to believe what you claim, instead of actually understanding what it is that you know?

I'll accuse you of being a Christian again. You won't get it of course, but someday it would be understood that the peddling of belief is a skill learnt precisely from the Bible, the skill of infants who lack understanding but who will grow up and leave their childish ways someday and gain understanding.

You have only asserted stuff here. Stuff you learnt first by reading your Bible then going off to investigate. What evidence have you provided than mere assertions and which you ask to be believed? Do you not trust that others will come to realisation someday if you work harder at providing evidence instead of abusing people because you think you know better?

I'm not surprised though. All you see a book as is something to believe in with no regard of the skills gained by reading it and trying to understand it, despite it being what taught those skills to you.

our ancestors were teaching these laws before the white man came to set us on a dangerous path with their rebellion against the creator of all and we were progressing at our own pace...

We add to it because we evolved and know more. Today, we even add a lot more by going to school to learn. Or is there no Maths, History, Science and Languages in your Holy Book, and did you not go to worship five times a week? I can assure you'd need some to survive until you start in the afterlife and someone must have paid so you got some. I wonder why they did not limit you to the old Testament alone.

Humans always rebel against the creator is precisely the lesson of the first rebellion against any authority, after all, one can't sin if there were no laws.

African secular history is the narrative that ought to learnt by all Africans; all the false narratives similar to the Abrahamic religions need to be thrown into the intellectual bin.

Abrahamic religious text should take its place on the fictional section of our libraries, far away from our own personal spirituality or secular history.

That's why you lobby and fight for history to be taught in our schools, right?

Christianity is fake, therefore one cannot use such terminologies in association with it’s false narratives.

You and vayina keep avoiding the question I keep asking which is, Do you not learn anything from George Orwell's Animal Farm because Napoleon, Snowball, Squealer, Boxer and Mr Jones et al are not real? Funny people some, who "cannot use such terminologies in association" because in their opinion, they are "false narratives", when Words that have been written are not only real but create all other things that exist. Believers, I call them. Deniers of the physical material things before them for the crap they create inside their head. Not that there's crap in your head, mind. Just that, hmm.

You say Christianity has done much wrong because you see it as a belief system, and not as the education system that it is, the same education system that allows you to see as you do. Or tell, did you not educate yourself in Christianity? Would your eyes open without it? In fact, are you not a Christian? You sure as hell behave like one, asking us all to believe you without providing evidence for your claim after ensuring that we see when you present it. A believer, or at worst, one who asks others to believe them, like those pastors who peddle religion that you claim is false. Makes me wonder if you engaged at all in the thread "what would civilization be like without religion", someone will post you a link.

As fiction as the Bible is; and not just Jesus alone, but Moses, Adam and Eve, Job etc, it is a book, a teaching tool, and not the God. It shows how learning evolved over time and teaches how to learn and how to teach and open eyes, and those who at least accept that the physical words themself are real, and not fiction, but a substance that exists in a physical book you'd feel if I whack your head with it. The fact that a book is fiction does not invalidate it, especially one that has been influencing thought for almost 2000 thousand years. That influence, which you are aware of, is not "fictional", obviously has "real" "character" and "terminologies" which have done quite a lot, bad and good, and you can't show that to be false, or can you?

You fail to give us Nigerians credit, is what I think. In my lifetime there've been period when a family had one Bible on the mantle no one touched it except pa or the lucky one who carried it to church for him on Sunday. And now, everyone has one. Over time, more people will read it and as more time goes by more will understand what they read and perhaps consider the implications of their understanding. I wonder what we'd be if we didn't have the Holy Bible. We'd all believe the Quran I guess since something will fill the void.

Travel › Re: My Experience Living And Working In The UAE by budaatum: 10:05pm On Dec 13, 2019

I found this. Its not an endorsement! Note it gives "beginning salary". Experienced nurses might earn more.

Nursing in Dubai

Dubai is a booming metropolis with a huge demand for a professional, hard-working nurse such as yourself. The rapid growth of Dubai may be over, but the expansion of the city has left room for health care professionals to move in and really make a difference to an exciting new city and its population.

If you’re sick of working in your current job with too little pay, too few benefits and no prospects then a change to a nursing job in Dubai may be exactly what you need.

Nursing in Dubai | Salary
The average salary expected for a nurse in Dubai is estimated to be between 2,500-10,000 UAD which equates to approximately $800-2500, £450-1600 or €525-2000.

The beginning salary for a nurse in Dubai is dependent on qualification and position as well as whether the hospital is funded privately or by the government. A huge advantage of nursing in Dubai however is that your income will be tax-free. Furthermore many nursing jobs in Dubai come with a wide range of benefits including insurance, accommodation allowance and travel expenses.

This is true of any nursing position worldwide, and wages much higher than this can be expect if you are hired for a nursing position within a company or for a private family.

Your recruitment agency or employer will have more details on your expected salary should you enquire.

Nursing in Dubai | Requirements
In order to begin your journey towards nursing in Dubai there are some requirements that you are going to have to meet. Namely, you are going to have the appropriate Nursing qualification to practice nursing in your home country and have no interruption in your nursing practice for more than 2 years. You are then required to pass the assessment set forth by the Dubai Health Authority. For more information on the requirements click here.

You will also be expected to have the appropriate working permits and Visas.

Advantages of Nursing in Dubai
There are a whole host of advantages to taking a nursing job in Dubai beyond just the warm climate and beautiful scenery. One of the most commonly cited is that earned income is tax free. This means that every UAD that you earn will yours to keep. Paid leave for nurses in Dubai is often very good too, with many roles offering up to 40 days paid holiday for full time workers.

Furthermore the employment benefits that many immigrating nurses receive when taking a job in Dubai are very generous. It is very common for nurses to receive free accommodation or a housing allowance. Alongside this many employers will also include dental, health and life insurance alongside travel allowances. These travel allowances will often fund both travel to the workplace as well as flights back to the country of origin for a nurse. Nurses with children can also receive an educational allowance for their children to go through school.

Disadvantages of Nursing in Dubai
The biggest disadvantage to pursuing your nursing career in Dubai is that you will usually be expected to work a slightly longer working week of 48 hours than the typical 40 hour work week is the USA, UK and many parts of Europe. Arguably this is not a big issue as Dubai health authorities tend to be stricter about the amount of overtime nurses can work, and so you are unlikely to be loaded with extra hours on top of this.

The language barrier for many will be the biggest issue. The official language of Dubai is Arabic, a non-Latin language. The fact that English is the second language of Dubai will come as a relief to many considering a move to Dubai to be a nurse. There are currently over 100,000 British expatriates so you will be far from alone if you’re moving to Dubai as a Westerner!

Due to the fact Dubai is often considered an “international city” the Islamic laws in the city tend to be more lax than in other Islamic parts of the Middle East. It is not a requirement to wear traditional coverings for either men or women; instead it is only asked that you maintain a level of decency. Alcohol is also served in hundreds of bars and hotels across the city too thanks to the booming tourist industry in Dubai.

That's the problem with you. I've been agreeing that it could be fiction but its still a book, no? Bet one of the oldest you've ever read.
