LoJ:If you don't create somewhere ('church') to teach this you do us all a disservice. But, you do, so you don't, thank God. |
johnydon22:A subjective beliefs system held by subjective humans? What does "intersubjective" mean please? |
johnydon22:I wasn't bothered with your "puerile". You couldn't even spell it right so I assumed you might not know what it meant either. But even if you did, it still didn't bother me since its just your subjective opinion. |
asalimpo:The bible can't lie! Its just a book and not a person. Those who wrote it could be mistaken though, or their year may not be the same as ours. They could have meant 900 months which is a mere more plausible 75 years. |
johnydon22:Subjective humans? |
johnydon22:No, not because you said buda's argument was puerile but because you were being rude. |
johnydon22:Accepted by humans and made by humans. |
johnydon22:It is said that "good manners don't cost much", and good behaviour is better than silver and gold". The first at least does works for me especially when I'm on the receiving side of it. But don't take my subjective word for it. Try it yourself if you wish. |

Martinez39:There is a way dead could mean spiritually dead. One can die on Nairaland by just digitally dying on Nairaland and still be alive in the world somewhere, which I hope he is. One can also resurrect too. |
malvisguy212:The word predestined is clearly there. And if you read my response to Ihedinobi3, you'd read where I said "There is a way they do fit". But the above to me cannot mean some are specifically predestined to accept Christ and go to heaven and some are predestined not to and go to hell. If that were the case then everyone just better accept their lot and those who do accept Christ should not bother preaching to those who are already predestined by God to go to hell. My own view is that accepting Christ or not is a personal choice that everyone makes with their own freewill regardless of what Paul's view is to the Romans. Paul, after all is not the Almighty God. Let me know what you think please. |
MuttleyLaff:He's been this way since 2015 and not seen a reason to change at all?! That might explain why we've not engaged much since I tend to swerve past uncivil people. I wonder if you might be civil with me please johnydon22? You have a lot to teach me and it's not fair of you to deprive me with such an unnecessary thing as uncivility. I'd be most grateful, I promise. |
ABCthings:Killing anyone is wrong for me because I doubt I'd like how I might feel if I killed someone and I don't like feeling bad so I stay away from such things. I get this feeling from studying people killing and how killers feel and how I imagine I might feel if I were killed. I'd be dead if killed and miss everything that happens afterwards and life is way too interesting for me to be forced to miss it all. I reckon the person I kill might feel the same way I might so I'd rather not be the cause of such feelings in another. |
TVSA:That's what one makes it if one breathes life into the words and lives it. Otherwise, it's lifeless words on the pages of just another book. |
TVSA:There's alway been chances and things are constantly removed. However, there's a limit to which we can go now since many have copies of what's available today and further editing discredits it. So we do it in our minds instead, and hence is it called the living word of God. It lives in our minds and as our minds grow so does our capacity to comprehend grow and a new more relevant understanding and interpretation steps forth just as Christ did in the dark. |
johnydon22:You've been touting that word "intersubjective" now for so long that one can possibly call you it's prophet, yet your sermons on it have not exactly flown, have they? Might that be the source of your frustration perhaps, that's made you the uncivil being you seem to be becoming? You could just educate us you know instead of insulting us for being not so wise as you! Anyway, my morality is subject to me. I choose the morals I adopt and do not need any external objective basis on which to choose them. I don't kill people because I don't like being killed and assume other's might not like me killing them either. An objective reason could be, if I kill I could go to jail. But that not why I don't kill. I don't kill people because I don't like killing people, simple. Same goes for being uncivil. Uncivility makes people sound stupid and ignorant to me. It's a thing ignorant people resort to when they haven't really got anything worthwhile to say so they cover up their inadequacies with even more inadequacies. I'm however stupid and ignorant enough as I am so why shroud my self in even more stupidity and ignorance!? But thats me, with my subjective opinion subject to me. I can't exactly say its objective and it doesn't need to be since I'm not claiming some external source for my opinion and stance nor asking anyone else to adopt it. If I don't like uncivil people I can very easily ignore them. And if I don't like killers I can run away or die. Se la vie. Can I just use my own mind to subjectively decide my morals for myself johnydon22? johnydon22:"Like you said", Prophet johnydon22, Lol! Or is it God johnydon22? Please note that I am stupid, ignorant, naive, wrong, puerile, illogical, very human buda. Maybe if you educate me please, I too can become Prophet or God johnydon22 too. Though, if it includes uncivility, you, can, keep it, thank you. |
Martinez39:Are the wages of stupidity not death? |
johnydon22:Morality is in the eye of the beholder unless you want to impose some heavenly godly morals on everyone. Most have abandoned that idea so they impose laws instead to guide morals. But even laws have their limitations so the wiser add education to it too to guide your morals, and prison if you break the law. Can I ask you questions? Why are you so uncivil? Why do you think your opinion is any more less puerile to anyone else's? Are you well in the head? I'm just wondering johnydon22 because I can't quite recall you being this way except of very recent! |
TVSA:No they didn't! Remember how inadequate, stupid and blind I was when I wrote it so many millenia after the events themselves had happened? |
budaatum:Thank you liker for liking this and thereby reminding me of it. It rather fits and applies to some of similar nature currently on here long after the individual this response was for and who appears to have passed away. Incidentally was I thinking how such people tend to die off after they've exhibited their so called godliness on here. Tares are some amongst wheat, both growing together until the harvest when they are bound in bundles and [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+13%3A24-30&version=NKJV]burnt[/url]". Only to find that an Angel of the Lord was liking and therefore reminding me of a similar incidence from the past while I slept! In the name of the Lord Almighty, you will not be like those who build on Nairaland without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately they fall in great ruin! You will think deep and lay your foundation on the rock so when the flood arises and the stream beat vehemently against that thought, you will not shake for you are founded on the rock. A people of power is rising up here and you are one of them. Amen. |
johnydon22:Unfortunately, morality is precisely like that. Homosexuality is one to note. If you're gay in Nigeria you are going to hell while UK has a Gay Parade and neither can give a reason the other will accept. But hey! If you think we are so puerile and funny and worthy of your condescension you are very welcome to educate us with your view and raise our morals to your lofty level please. |
deboysben:I'm laughing at you in advance. |

ABCthings:Killing anyone is wrong for me, ABC, regardless of whether the killed likes it or not. It's so wrong for me that I can't possibly kill anyone. And in my opinion, killing OBL is wrong too especially if he could have been captured (and I believe he could have), and tried for his crimes which is what I'd prefer. Thankfully, no one is asking me to pass judgement on his killers, but if I were, they'd be guilty as charged. |
johnydon22:Please know that your reasons for liking or not liking me slapping you or thinking its right or wrong is irrelevant to me. |
johnydon22:It's wrong because you find it wrong! Just as I might find you calling my conceptualisation puerile, wrong. After all, I may be offended. But of what concern should my hurt ego be of yours? I think the issue here might be that you might be one of those objective moralists while I'm not. I might not find an act wrong but you might. And that's perfectly okay with me especially if its an act with consequences that affect you and if my morals happen to include not ignoring how my action affects you.. Take for instance, slapping you. I may find great pleasure in the act of lifting up my arm, directing my palm towards you, and at a high velocity hitting it against your face. But I might accept the fact that you might not like being slapped. If you do however, not mind, I've met a soul mate who would enjoy being slapped by me all day long which I highly enjoy. And if you do mind, well, who cares what you think as long as I have my fun? I'm stating how I feel about a thing, johnydon22, and what I find moral or immoral for me to do, and not establishing some moral code that everyone has to subscribe to. After all, I'm only buda, and not some god who gets to dictate to others what they must or can or can't or mustn't do. Let me know if I may slap you please. |
johnydon22:I presented my argument. I brought it into your home for you to decide. I used your preferences as my criteria to determine whether it's right or wrong. I've arranged with my people to visit you. All you have to do is tell me you are happy and I will agree with you. My position is that morality is in the eye of whom it affects, you, in this instance. Where's your address please? |
