I don't understand your position.

What is wrong with bamboo houses as low cost, affordable housing?

Nothing is wrong if we had enough bamboo, and the skills to build with it and the desire to buy such houses.

I just need think of the wind that blew off the roof next door to wonder if it wouldn't blow away a bamboo house.

mrvitalis:
Firstly we do not produce enough bamboo trees for this stuff

Secondly there is actually no prove bamboo house would be cheaper than block houses.

Ofemannnu:
Liar.
Tinubu didn't say that rubbish.
Tinubu never said that.

I didn't believe he said that neither, and found a perm sec said it for the FG.

Esuabana Asanye, the Permanent Secretary of the Federal Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology, disclosed the plan this in Abuja on Wednesday during a Capacity Building Workshop on Relevance of Bamboo for Climate-Smart Housing Construction

USA farmers not selling in China will make them sell in USA instead, which will increase product in USA markets and eventually reduce price (inflation), and make America great again.

Call it the farmers sacrifice for maga success.

I have been on a deep dive into this topic for about two days now. When you have a moment, check out Patrick Boyle's piece on this.

The number of ways this fella will Bleep up the US, they have no idea.

Yeah. He called it Revenge Tax. Not many are noticing is why I posted. I can't figure why he'd discourage foreign investment in USA.

Good morning Senator 😁😁😁😁

This "democrat" seems to have just become woke, but watch him go unwoke as soon as dump shows him some love.

nateevs:
You have completely lost all manner of decency. You just jump online to find anything that agrees with your narrative, and you post. No verification of truth required.

He never had any manner of decency. And he does not know what truth means.

Oh! I found it after attempting to remove the last line above.

Ridiculous I dare say, considering how often my longer posts get me spambotted. Is seun trying to reduce engagement and use of Nairaland, I wonder.

And where is this rule written?

Here's why the concept of an eternal universe is not supported by current scientific understanding:

You at least wouldn't henceforth go about saying atheists claim the universe is eternal.

Thing is, not even Gods are eternal. Yahweh is only about 3000 years old, which is a blink of an eye in universe time. Evidence shows Gods are created and eventually abandoned and left to die in the Graveyard Of Dead Gods.

Is the person described here, you?

No one cares what you call it but what we all know is that increasing view means that where before you could only see the guy standing at the bus stop with his wallet in his pocket, an increased view would be you seeing through that wallet to see the money/monies and the denominations inside that wallet.

Please! One can increase ones view by simply learning the usefulness of square roots instead of thinking it is poison.

That said, an increased view would be you understanding what you see, which is why it is written that "the eye should be the lamp of your body". You can't see fruits without it, and would likely go looking in another persons wallet due to a narrow view.

Steep:
There might not be a big bang or there might be but however every evidence points to the direction of a universe that has a beginning.

Actually, all the evidence I have considered point to the current universe beginning from an (unknown) state that existed prior to it.

As I and many have mentioned here already, something had to exist to go bang. And some have even dated that big bang when this current universe began to be 13.6 billion plus or minus 200 million years ago. They do not however claim there was nothing before then

As to whether there might or might not have been a big bang, I'd expect there might have had to be. Ordinary, "God said, “Let there be light”", must have produced a monumental bang, not to talk of a bigger bang that might have occured In the beginning [when] Godis written to have created the heavens and the earth. Can't say for certain though, I must say, since I wasn't there to observe it.

Steep:
Alright, what I meant when I said that if the universe has always being then we wouldn't have being. Supposing you were walking on road going to a point at the end of the road but however the road is infinite would you ever get to your destination?

Yes I would ever get to my destination, which you've described as, "a point at the end of the road", which is not infinite by being a point.

Of course, if one had no destination point and had nothing better to do, one might just travel down an infinite road for the sake of it forever, but I don't think there's a continuous road that is infinite enough for one not to arrive at a dead end or die trying.

Steep:
What I mean by infinite is endless time. Sometimes it is used to mean an incredible amount that placing a particular number maybe difficulty but however it is not truly infinite.

So, because its difficult, you just fill the gap with an infinity you yourself know is not true?

I hope you're therefore not surprised I'm not buying, especially since it flags of a fallacy.

Steep:
you seem to attribute intelligence to atheism.
I apologize for the harshness of language.

Would you like to show me where I attribute "intelligence to atheism" please, because I can't exactly say all atheists are intelligent, nor are all theists lacking in intelligence, intelligence being the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills.

It would be rather unintelligent to claim a person who has acquired the ability and knowledge to replace a defective heart with a good heart lacks intelligence because they go to church on Sundays I'd think, unless one wants to more unintelligently claim all heart surgeons are atheists.

LordReed:
Some people mistakenly think the BB came from nothing. I dunno how they arrive at that since all the descriptions of the BBT include mentions of a hot dense state before the expansion.

Have you not noticed some Christians here have not read their Bible, my Lord? Why would you expect them to know much about big bangs?

Just read someone here telling me "atheists claim the universe is eternal", without realising eternal means, there is God. I suppose he might have come across atheists who fear burning in hell.

CoolUsername:
I'm not saying it's impossible but much like the multiverse hypothesis, doesn't it just kick the can further down the road?

They just raise questions as to what started the cycle or what caused the multiverse to come to be. But we don't have these answers.

However, what we do know is that the universe rapidly expanded 13.8 billion years ago. In the absence of any further evidence, the most logical path to take should be the one with the least assumptions which would be that the universe has always existed in some form. This can then be disproven once evidence suggests otherwise.

Just like what we humans that exist today must have existed in some form in the very distant past I suppose.

Does it not make you think the current universe evolved into being what it is today? The God written about in the Bible does the same by evolving from some angry brimstone and fire your ass thingy, into a meek and gentle forgiving Jesus. Instead of "Love your neighbor and hate your enemy", he said let your other cheek be slapped too. The "evolution of thought", I'd say.

basilico:
He must have been blackmailing his paedo clients and passing off the material to local or international spy agencies..
Too many people wanted him dead,maybe even governments. That's my opinion

Yeah. Including the President Biden who let Epstein die on his watch and said barely anything.

I think there's a mule that he let Bill and Hillary in to kill him. Got any links?

Dtruthspeaker:
It was not us who spoke about God and our world and worlds outside our view. No human can do that.

I have books that us humans wrote "about God and our world and worlds outside our view".

One is called the Holy Bible. Goggle if you never seen a copy.

Dtruthspeaker:
No matter how you try to increase your view, you can never see how much money that is inside the wallet of a man standing at the bus stop, nor can you see the Agofure bus leaving Ughelli nor can you ever see which woman would be lying on coolusername's bed.

What you've described above is nowhere like what I'd call "increasing ones view", and in fact might better be seen as poking sticks in ones view so one does not see any view at all. For how is it that increasing ones view extends to someone else's wallet or woman?

feedthenation:
---Kash Patel is very busy with his appearance on Joe Rogan show---he can't even disclose anything on the Epstein files and you expect him to investigate alleged Chinese servers in the elections---

I've wondered all along if Epstein did kill himself or if President Biden killed him.

Any mules on that basilico?

Everyday247:
I've heard something about a big crunch hypothesis.
According to this big crunch hypothesis, the universe ends in a reversal of the big bang or a collapse of the universe and then another universe begins afterwards. The hypothesis claims that our universe may not be first or last, but that our universe is just one in a never ending cycle of big bangs and big crunches. This hypothesis indicates an infinite cycle of universes.

Although, it's just a hypothesis.

Thank you very much. I too have heard many hypothesis, and it is conceivable that something must have come out of something as the big crunch hypothesis suggests. The big bang theory suggests the same thing to me, since something has to exist to go bang if one thinks about it.

What I admire more is your "it's just a hypothesis", as in something to further consider, as opposed to something to be believed and stop asking and knocking and seeking.

Steep:
There are only two possible explanation, it is either the universe came into existence or the universe has always being. If the universe has always being then there would have being an infinite amount of time before we could ever get here, meaning we would not have existed at all.

I am reading your "being" as been. Correct me if i misunderstand please.

The assumption that there are "only two possible explanations", I doubt, considering the numerous universe creation narratives believed. In fact, isn't this discussion the dispute of myths themselves, or would you like to argue anyone saw a big bang?

That said, yes, I agree that the universe must either have always been or it gradually came into being, and evidence suggests the latter at least from our earthly observation, that it gradually came into being, hence the many creation records like "God said" and big bang, all we humans way of understanding what we observe and writing it in books to disseminate it to those who can not observe for themselves.

Your claim though that "If the universe has always being then there would have being an infinite amount of time before we could ever get here, meaning we would not have existed at all", I don't think I understand.

It seems like you are claiming that if a very large and long amount of time had passed, we humans would not have existed.

Can you explain what you mean by "infinite amount of time", please, and tell me why say, if the universe was born 10 million years ago, humans would not exist.

Steep:
The cyclical model of universe has being debunked. the law of thermodynamics only works in one direction which is disorderliness essential hence the universe could not have being eternal at all leaving only one possibility which is that the universe truly came into being and was not eternal.

I assume eternal means always been. Do atheists claim the universe is eternal?

In fact, I'll ask them myself.

Atheists! Is the universe eternal?

Steep:
Funny how atheists could trust their brains if their brains were a product of cosmic accident?

First, I'm beginning to think it is scientists that you mean when you say atheist, like you abhor their use of their own senses.

Second, I do not think atheists claim their brain is a "product of cosmic accident". In fact, I'd say the atheists claim is their brain is a product of development over a very long period of time, and that humans have evolved consequently from single cells with perhaps some accidents along the way.

Should we ask atheists, again, maybe, instead of you trying to portray them as you seem to think they are?

Steep:
By the way atheism didn't give anything, technology is a product of Intelligence and only intelligence can produce intelligence.

I never said atheism gave anything, I hope.

Steep:
You are deluded! Go and learn properly.

you are an ignorant person.

You are rude!

Steep:
Let me summarize for you, the unverse has a beginning because physically and mathematically it is not possible for the universe to be eternal hence many atheists are forced to say the universe came from nothing......

That doesn't then give anyone the right to impose their god in the gap and tell everyone to just believe it especially if those people would rather go ask and knock and seek with their own hearts and souls and minds and beings, is what I think.

Still, I have never heard an atheist or a scientist claim the universe is eternal. They think they so smart they know when the universe was born.

Steep:
The current cosmological science backed up by evidence shows that the universe ( space-time-material) has a beginning. It therefore mean that whatever brought the universe into being is outside the universe (space-time-material).

I have always maintained that something has to exist to go bang.

Steep:
Therefore that being is spaceless times and immaterial.

Read the italics below, and tell me if it is not trying to say the same as what you said above.

The Big Bang theory, while explaining the expansion and evolution of the universe we know, doesn't offer an explanation for what existed before the initial singularity. This singularity is a point of infinite density and temperature from which the universe is thought to have emerged.

Steep:
Many atheists scientists in trying to fix their poopoo try to conjure infinite unverses which ended up not helping them at all but infact pushed their dilemma further.

Funny. The technology learnt along their search (and by the way, they are not all atheists as more scientists since the beginning of time have been religious than not), has increase human life span alone, and that's apart from empowering you to converse with me over a long distance. Or would you rather we remain ignorant and without satellites?

Steep:
All evidence points that there is a being that is immaterial and outside of the universe that created them.

I am trying to convince myself that you are capable of accessing "all evidence", and I feel very certain you will not disappoint me.

Steep:
Now the stupid question atheists usually ask is "who created God or where did God come from?"

Imagine! You would think they read somewhere that they should ask and knock and seek with all their hearts and souls and minds and beings and they will know.

Steep:
God cannot be created because he is timeless, God cannot come from anywhere because he is spaceless or else he will not be God.

And yet it is possible to date when humans created their Gods, and God didn't exist everywhere, least not in my great grandfather's time until it was brought to where he was in a book. And there were Gods before God. And God isn't even the oldest God since some Gods have existed before God, though many have since died I admit.

But seriously. Teach me master.

Dtruthspeaker:
Every sane person knows that we are all talking from the limits of our world and God dwell in worlds outside our view, so you are truly talking nonsense.

So, you are talking about things outside your view and beyond your limit and want us to just play along with you?

Have you considered increasing your view and looking outside perhaps, instead of asking me to stoop to your limit?

Joshthefirst:

God is not an example nah. Chai. Nawa oh.

Eternal and infinite life is an attribute of God.

How do you know this? And why is God not an example?

Why is "Eternal and infinite life" an attribute of God?

In fact, do you understand that infinite means immeasurably or inconceivably great or extensive, and that because you are incapable of measuring a thing does not mean it is eternal?

basilico:
FBI refused to investigate Konnech

Is that not because Biden is the president and he has not nominated Kash Patel?

You wait. If dump wins the next election the entire FBI will be jailed. Along with Harvard!

How is his post contradictory or baseless?

It does contradict the nothing comes from nothing mantra, mind.

The majority of you do not possess the logic you claim to have more of than women do. It’s been an embarrassing spectacle after spectacle. All ego driven. No logic. No common sense.

You guys need to shut up and listen to the better men amongst you since you obviously don’t listen to women.
