seun provide a very beautiful view there. ":absolutely certainity isn't rational"

In my opinion his agnostic atheism stands too is very absurd as well. It can be likened to Not even wrong premises . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_even_wrong

Seun might have gotten away with that carelessly thrown away statement if he had tagged on "about gods" at the end. But he certainly can't possibly mean it as widely as he's stated, or allowed to be inferred from what he's written as I'm sure he wouldn't think "absolute certainty" is irrational when crossing a busy road. The day he thinks so is the last day he crosses roads! I therefore disagree with the statement "absolute certainty is irrational" (including where gods are concerned).

As to his "agnostic atheist", I, a sometimes, "Christian Atheist", is not qualified to cast stones.

Seun:
Yes, an agnostic atheist. Very few atheists are gnostic. We understand that absolute certainty isn’t rational.

One absolutely certain gnostic atheist right here, thank you.
We are very very rare indeed.

I'm not surprised that you, Olaadegbu, would post a story whose only source is Breitbart. People with brains would be much more mindful of their own credibility and would have checked sources for this story, but I suppose one could hardly expect such mindfulness from you going by the sort of threads you are known for posting.

If you have a credible source for this story kindly provide it as I hunger for some serious humble pie eaten in public.

No one is perfect

lol! I don't need the approval of your Quran or Bible or your gods to live my life! If they don't like it, they are welcome to come and remove pork off my plate or out my mouth if and when I decide to eat it! Thankfully, they got better things to do, it would seem, than to concern themselves with your petty opinion. But just for you, and in case you actually matter, I will have pork ribs with pasta tonight so you know where to direct your god!

Saying the truth is not judging. Judging is simply saying one will make hell. It's only God that can do that. Telling someone the truth from the bible isn't judging the person.

So, when those people Jesus told to cast the first stone were passing their judgement, they were not reading from the Bible of the time right?

Pork meat have a maggot if you pour a real vodka on it and leave a while u see how it’s change to
Maggot
Pork meat it’s forbidden and it’s was writing bold in bible and Quran for true believer to forbid it

Na God words if we like we agree or not it up to those who admit and ignore

All meat will have maggots if left long enough. Pigs reared in a well maintained farm don't have maggots! But that does not answer the question.

In the old days, pigs were not reared on farms and roamed around eating anything they could find including poo and dead bodies. For this reason they were prone to be diseased, and to protect people, the bits in the Bible were said to come from God forbidden the consumption of pork. Today however, with better animal husbandry, ebi ni o pa Ijesa ni o fi ni wipe o un ko ni jẹ ekọ Ọyọ.

Pigs are described in this section as prohibited because they have a cloven hoof but don't chew their cud.

This is not the reason why Jews do not eat pork! What you've listed is the law forbidden it. Look deeper. Someone alluded to it by mentioning what pigs eat and its effect on pork.

If you want to be defined as a worshipper of God,
then your "if God were my god"
should be "if God were my God"
Please, at least, be consistent.

I think you know me to be a person who carefully chooses words, and even letters, I use. I strongly suggest you understand what I mean rather than try to twist what I say to mean what you want me to say.

God, is not my god, nor do I "want to be defined as a worshipper of God" ! I strongly adhere to the law that states "buda shalt not make unto buda any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: buda shalt not bow down to them, nor serve them." (barv)

Have you not heard me state that gods (including God) are things created in the minds of those who create them, hence they are figments of the imagination? And did not even you say that I am god? Though I am not jealous of myself (it's stupid to be), and do not punish anyone but myself for my iniquities, nor do I bow down and worship myself since the more effective way of doing so is to do to those here whom I see, as opposed to the figment of my imagination which I see not.

Yet, The US unemployment rate fell to 3.9 percent in July 2018 from 4.0 percent in June, matching market expectations. The jobless rate touched an 18-year low of 3.8% in May. The number of unemployed persons declined by 284,000 to 6.3 million and employment was almost unchanged at 156.0 million.

So, are you suggesting fewer people are in work and they just been lying?

If you know the rate at which those heretic JW focus on other Christians, then you won't be saying this. Their watchtower and Awake magazines are always targeted at Christianity while they claim to be the only Christians.

My advise to you is that you should accept Jesus into your life! If you believed Jesus was your God, you would be dancing with joy for being persecuted in his name.

The word "Christians" mean "People who strive to be like Christ".

Christ did not call nonbelievers filthy, disgusting or condemn them to hell. He ate and drank with them, he showed them love and care. He protected a prostitute, He prayed for a robber in his death. He came for Sinners.

This is Whom Christians want to emulate. You can see now and decide for yourself who is being a Christian or not.

It is fear mongering! And I fear not! You have no evidence whatsoever for this so called "eternal life" you live in fear of not attaining. And life on this earth and the amazing things one could get on with rather take up so much of the time I have that I don't see the benefit of bothering about whatever might happen to me once I'm dead. Doing so would be considering myself lower than the birds and the bees. I'd rather leave such bothers to the gods, if there are any. But since there aren't any. I'd rather get on with living, thank you, than bother what happens after I'm dead.

[url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+6%3A27-36&version=NIV]Luke 6:27-36[/url]

Who's Your Daddy?

The entire Chapter 6 is enough to get the ire of us atheists up. The issue with it is that we just can't find any Christians who actually 'believe' it, least not by their behaviour. But let me explain.

Say I have a god whom I worship. Would I not try, really really hard to do the will of my god? I think I will. Especially if by so doing, I receive all the rewards my god promises me. But this is not only about the "great rewards"! For as the text says, "and you will be children of the Most High". And this, even more than being a Christian, is essentially what would define me as a worshipper of God, if God were my god.

Now, it might of course be that being a Christian is of more importance than being a "child of the most high". And that the rewards of being a Christian are greater than being a "child of the Most High". But I'm certain many would assume the two, being a Christian and a "child of the most high", are synonymous. So how does it work that I can have enemies whom I hate, curse those who curse me, not pray for those who mistreat me, slap others even before they slap me, not give my shirt to those who take my coat and not be kind to the ungrateful and wicked, and still claim I am a child of the Most High?

Perhaps some just have different Daddies, I can't help but wonder. Or you're just taking the piss with your God!

The budaatum, likes mind of this world, feeling perplexed, now begin to wonder, why it took God, 2000 years to appear on earth in the person of Jesus.

You need to stop with these wrong assertions! budaatum is in no way perplexed or wondering, why any god took 2000 years to appear anywhere in any form!

buda perfectly understands that at best, it took that long for some Yahwehists to decide they had waited too long worshipping an unseen god and decided to deify and worship a seen one instead! The only major wonder at the time was the realisation that they could freely create a god to bow to and worship! They probably learnt it from the Romans, who were rather adept at creating gods out of their emperors.

What is perplexing, if anything, is the fact that your "likes mind of this world" haven't figured out how to create gods too.
