EmperorHarry:
That's what I meant by irrelevant details.

Ihedinobi3:
You're welcome, and I'm quite happy to agree on something with you when the agreement is in the Truth.

Ihedinobi3:
I think that I should clarify that I only ever have a problem with people when they look at something straight in its face and still deny what it says. I find that very hard to excuse, especially when it affects the well-being of other believers. This is the only thing that occasions my "getting" any type of way when, as you say, we delve.

Ihedinobi3:
I am fine with disagreement, even if I prefer agreement. If an atheist told me straight out that he doesn't agree with something I say, I may ask why just for the record, but only for the record. Everyone has the right to believe whatever they please. What I take exception to is anyone making it a sort of duty to either confuse or deceive others all because they prefer a point of view and will not allow anything to even suggest that it may be wrong.

Ihedinobi3:
To explain, I have a personal rule of thumb to never try to "evangelize" an atheist. I get that such a person has made a choice, and typically doesn't want to hear anything about the Gospel, so I won't make the offer. So, I don't start threads attacking atheism or atheists, and I don't start threads to "preach the Gospel". My threads are specific to Christians, and even so, I take pains to make them unobtrusive but also as accessible as possible to everyone. When I join a conversation, it is always to answer a question directed at the Bible or at Christians, or else it is to protect other believers from attacks made on their faith. This is what brings me into contact with atheists. Otherwise, we would probably never discuss with each other.

Ihedinobi3:
The trouble begins when the atheist who posts a challenge to the Bible or Christians suddenly finds that there is a reasonable answer to that challenge for which they are not prepared. That is when the effort to prove the absurdity of Christianity goes awry and the atheist begins to use tactics that make me increasingly antagonistic toward them because I know what effect those tactics can have on a weak believer.

Ihedinobi3:
I am willing to believe that you, for example, may not really intend to cause harm with your actions when we discuss, not least because I have a desire to accommodate everyone, if perchance I may save some, but I do not pretend that things are not what they seem only because I wish that they weren't. This is why I am answering you now: to give you the benefit of the doubt in the hope that I judged you wrong earlier.

Ihedinobi3:
Perhaps, you will receive this post as an insult or something along the same lines, but I hope that you don't. I do wish that you and I and others besides could talk "religious-speak" comfortably and encourage one another to please the Lord Jesus Christ in all things. That is partly what I hope for in these conversations, but I realize that it is a choice I cannot make for other people, so my primary duty is to protect those who have made the choice in the first place. This may mean that if you have no use for the Lord Jesus and His Truth, you and I will always run the risk of "get[ting that way] when [you] delve".

This room for redefining is irrational because I could redefine the word "atheist" to mean a christian mathematician and concluded that there are christian atheists where as it is impossible to simultaneously be an atheist and a christian.

@budaatum

You should have clumped this together rather than separated the last sentence away from it and add it to the remaining. You misunderstood me. Your bad.


I never said "muslim feminist" is a word. The word that has to be redefined to make being a muslim feminist possible is "muslim." That's all. You can also redefine "feminism" and "feminist" to have it the other way round.

It is impossible to be a muslim feminist except you redefine the word "muslim" to be compatible with feminism. Here are the definitions of the words "Muslim," "Feminism" and "Feminist."

Omooba224:
I must confess, you are a sage! Not being sarcastic though.

Martinez39:
What? You just saw the meaning of the phrase and you are still asking "in who's 'principle'?" Let me make it easy for you since you are struggling with the phrase "in principle" despite seeing it on google. Given the meaning of the words "Islam," "Muslim," "feminism" and "feminist" in the English language, it is not theoretically or logically possible to be a muslim feminist just as it not possible to have a four side triangle.

Martinez39:
To have both, you must redefine the words "muslim" and "four" to accommodate such.

Martinez39:
This room for redefining is irrational because I could redefine the word "atheist" to mean a christian mathematician and concluded that there are christian atheists where as it is impossible to simultaneously be an atheist and a christian.

Martinez39:
This is basically what muslim feminists are doing. I could also redefine any word in the English language to mean anything I want.

Martinez39:
So are we speaking English or not? Have you redefined the word "muslim"?

Bilkol:
5D mrk III is way more cheaper than what Jumia sells and moreover its second even though it’s almost 99.9% new and secondly most people are ditching DSLR for mirroless and we that said amount you can get a 5D Mrk IV

Martinez39:
Use a dictionary or the Google search engine to learn the meaning of the phrase "in principle."

Omooba224:
Wow! What a caring and loving mom! I am pretty she was bewildered by your level of intelligence at that age. You were damn too fortunate to have such a reading background.

Don't tell me read all these.
You are really a bookworm. I cherish that.

Ihedinobi3:
It looks like a panel discussion, and it's a 58-minute video. I'm disinclined to watch it, not least because Bible teaching is not a democratic exercise.

Regardless what the video says, it is true that no human descendant inherits the sins of its forebears. Each person is responsible for their own sins.

Martinez39:
Perhaps we can redefine the word "muslim" to accommodate such.

Martinez39:
Helping sexual assault victims is not necessarily feminism or maybe it is. One cannot be a muslim feminist in principle. They can only go as far as labelling themselves "muslim feminist" but in principle, being a muslim feminist is impossible. Muslim feminism, just like rational irrational numbers, is impossible.

Perhaps we can redefine the word "muslim" to accommodate such.

My bad! Why did I even mention a non-existent dude in the first place? I failed to perceive such an imaginary folk yet I was quick to say he is not omnipotent.

Janosky:
It's not a flaw.

The question is: Where did the flaw arise;from the maker of the knife or the wrong purposes for which the knife was put to use?
Ecclesiastics 7:29.

Satan66:
Atheism isn't a belief
It's a LACK of belief in any deity

Martinez39:
This is a welcome development. This country doesn't take rape seriously. If you rape someone in this country, you can bail your self out ₦500,000 . Hope they can protest against this nonsensical law. As I have said, this is a welcome development but they should not start falsely accusing boys of rape and sending them to jail like they do in USA and Europe.

Satan66:
Since when does union refer to religious beliefs?
Union is simply another meaning for a group people.
Learn something before spewing out rubbish

Satan66:
I'm not in support of this rubbish.
We're are atheist, what concerns us with a prayer?
You're basically turning our union into a religion.

Omooba224:
How did your Ma and Pa manage to accept your views at that tender age?

Ihedinobi3:
S/he already did at the link. What does the video say?

Omooba224:
No, I haven't. The phone I am using is damn slow, it is a 2g-mode phone which won't allow me to watch it.

Omooba224:
This is one of the reasons "omnipotence" quality of god is an illusion. He knew the angels were going to be rebellious yet he created them. Now, such rebellious acts of the creatures infuriate him. Then why is he omnipotent, was he not supposed to know their fallibilities?

Omooba224:
Dayum! My Gee! You are so lucky to have had such an inquisitive childhood where you also had enough resources (books). You were not too fed with garbages. Do you still remember the books you read at that time? If yes, mention them so that someone out there might be helped.

How did your Ma and Pa manage to accept your views at that tender age?

Sorry if I am being too inquisitive. ..

OtemAtum:
20. Now all the people gathered together to imagine what they wished to let Luwabi see in his dream. And they imagined deep into the night, saying, since Luwabi has already heard our threat, he shall dream it also.

Omooba224:
I would like to get the video transcript. Any help @budaatum?

Janosky:
Adam and Eve were no zombies ,neither were angels ,Gen6:2 says angels chose to marry daughters of men.

Is it a flaw for a free moral agent to make choices for himself?
