Michael547:
So Even when the World's religions contradict each other, they are all true?

The contradictions in the Bible don't make the Bible "untrue", so why should contradictions in religions mean they are not true?

Michael547:
Or are you saying that just been good to people makes your religion true?
Which one oga?

Not, or. Being good to people does require a good understanding of people, which requires love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control to get, to say the least. And if love, joy, etc is gotten from one's religion, I will say that religion is a true religion. It isn't the only true religion however, as most religions teach similar things, one would find if one bothered to check.

Take Christianity for instance. If you remove all the love your neighbour, no body in their right senses but fools would preach Jesus or want to go to heaven I don't think, and practising neighbour love here on earth by oneself is rewarding enough, I'd say, since I wouldn't need to worry about my neighbour stealing from me or killing me.

And yes, I do notice the contradictory politically corrected ˹bondspeople˺, lol.

Aemmyjah:
Just de play

I don't play with nor about serious knowledge like this, Aemmyjah.

Just, if it so happens that there is more to the world and universe than can be found in one book, it would bother me if some say otherwise, especially if the books themself have it written in them that they are not all there is.

The Merc still bounce, is one reason Max shouldn't go there.

Aemmyjah:
There's no proof of giraffe with shorter necks.

There are many who claim there is no evidence for the tyrannosaurus too, but I think they haven't bothered to look.

Aemmyjah:
Lol
I can't recall where I read that
There's no proof that giraffes had not always had longer necks

Apart from the fact that giraffes did not always exist, long neck or not, There is sufficient fossil evidence showing that once upon a time, giraffes had much shorter necks.

Aemmyjah:
If Adaptation is not by choice
What about the other 4

Darwin mentioned 5 under natural selection
Is there no 'selection' in the process of adaptation as the other used with his illustration of giraffe
Two mumu

There is no "selector", period. Unless you want to claim the giraffe put its own neck in to it's own selecting to survive.

It's like you can select to adapt or not to converse without the rude insults. Though since such adaptations may happen over generations, the choice may not exactly be yours, especially if it's not passed down to you by your parents

Aemmyjah:
LordReed will not agree with you
Two idiots

Was that by choice?

Was what by choice? That you adapt to your environment or die?

Yes. That is by choice. Though not a choice consciously made in the whole scheme of things.

The giraffe does not 'choose' to adapt a longer neck. It adapts a longer neck eventually because it's parents had longer necks and passed down longer neck genes, while those with shorter necks died and did not survive.

The diagram below shows what the giraffe evolved from. The giraffe family was once much more extensive, with over 10 fossil genera described, but those that did not survive did not sufficiently adapt to their environment.

Aemmyjah:
No
Man is doing the selecting

Nature, if anything. Though not selecting, but forcing adaptation.

It's like you adapt to your environment or you will be jobless and die of hunger. The environment does not select you. It is you who adapts so you live.

PoliteActivist:
The end result of natural selection is SELECTION OF CERTAIN TRAITS!

No. The above is incorrect. More correct is:

The end result of natural selection is the Prevalence OF CERTAIN TRAITS.

Basically, the result you see is what has prevailed, as opposed to "selected", which implies a selector. But I don't expect us to agree on this since your stance is that there must be a selector (God, designer, etc).

One would not say a designer gave the giraffe a long neck in the example below, but that some giraffes grew longer necks in their search for food and that made their survival more likely, as opposed to being arbitrary selected by some selector to survive.

LordReed:
I seem to have a couple of recalcitrant knuckleheads here. Listen dummies, this is very simple. Nature has no agency it cannot take actions but we describe some of its processes as through an action was taken or a behavior was displayed. Eg. We say a moving stream is running, we say the clouds are pregnant, etc. None of things like this are literal. The stream is not actually running the way an animal with legs can, it merely descriptive. So when I say nature doesn't select I mean it is not taking an action or making a choice with an outcome in mind, it can't. But some how you knuckleheads are all over the place with nonsense especially PoliteActivist with their constant appeals that indicate no real attempt at understanding.

To some, a God is doing the selecting you describe.

Brendaniel:
But first you must adhere strictly to the land use and the government laid down policies to benefit all these.

One of the policies the government should instigate is one that makes it illegal to move cattle in people's farms.

It is theft of farm produce and it must be stopped! And this Tinubu Ruga of enclosed ranches is a solution.

Land is of course not free, and must be bought.

Redhot111:
Tinubu is foolish enough to ask governors yo provide land for herdsmen while the test of us must purchase land for our respective businesses. Indeed animal in human skin putting on agbada according to Fela.

Anyway he can donate the wholesale of iragbaji to killer herdsmen for all we care but you see my state? No space for ruga

I don't think our state governments would read Tinubu's "give" as free land. And I don't in fact think Tinubu himself meant free land.

He would after all never have given free land in Lagos to anyone, so why would he now be requesting free land for cattle.

He needs to provide more details to avoid the concussion I guess

DaHighLife:
One of my colleagues would argue that there were no weapons present on January 6th. It appears he was attempting to assert that this absence of weaponry disqualified the event from being an insurrection.
While I initially believed it to be inconsequential, if it holds significance for him, then it follows that this should debunk that rationale as well.

Like maga and rationale go together?

Your colleague might claim that was not a 'weapon' or was just an American asserting the second amendment.

Yippee! We will now be able to weld In Six Geopolitical Zones Centers, which is exactly what we have been telling FG we want.

Someone told me to believe in the supernatural and did not understand they were telling me to stop using the brain inside my head and become stupid.

AllenSpencer:
That’s it!

Ruga is the solution!

Circle them up and know anyone grazing openly is a criminal.

People shut down Ruga without proffering sane and diplomatic solutions.

Maybe now it's not coming from bubu people will hear more.

budaatum:
I wonder what they've been waiting for. Bet they never supported the Livestock Transformation Development Plan that many derogatively called Ruga though that would have forced cattle rearing on to a ranch and out of the hands of the cattle rearing Fulanis.

See someone in this thread baffled by your support for child grooming in schools

There are indeed some who unknowingly feed on your lies without checking for themselves, so why don't you post my response to prove your point?

Meanwhile, hope it pleases you that they can tell your child about trans and homos so long as they don't tell your child to be trans and homos.

Same as your child should be taught about atheists and Muslims without telling them to be atheist and Muslims, or teaching your child about other tribes and races without telling them to abandon theirs.

We just need to ensure bigoted ignorant hateful people like you, and those who want to tell your child what it should be, don't be doing the telling.

And I hope you bother to pay to empower your child with the tools so it learns instead of needing to be told anything.

You have to fight for it but in Yoruba land, the British were invited and they did not really force themselves

Sorry, but you seriously need to do some more research so you know what you talk about.

Michael547:
Lol....so are you saying all people from diffrlerent contradictory religions and even those who choose not to believe in God are destined to a promised heaven?
How does that idea lead us to the true religion with the right fruit?

No. I'm saying, if the gods refuse to let those of other religions who have even better fruits than some Christians into heaven, then the gods are dumb.

Please refer to the Parable of the Good Samaritan. The Samaritan did not believe in God as others did, yet Jesus told you to go do as he had done.

As for true religion, I can't say any religion is untrue as far as fruits go.

pharmbayo:
What has he done to improve the security of the state? Aregbesola did alot in Improving the State Security and
Oyetola also did his best. Our Adeleke has not done anything in that respect. The Amotekuns are already demoralized. May God help us jare

Kindly do tell me the "a lot" that Aregbesola did, considering he was not paying staff and was taking Osun money all the way to Lagos.

Those staff he did not pay made farming impossible, as a hungry person can 'farm' at night.

Georgekyrian:
According to your image below, there is nothing like strong woman, clear your head

I think you mean, according to your own understanding of what you've had the opportunity to see.

To wit, perhaps you should clear your eyes.

I've added a chart for today's price to my initial, so we have something to compare in due time.

benalvino3:
are you still wondering why you are seen as a pervert?

Are you still wondering why you are a stupid idiot and why I don't care what you think you see?

Michael547:
Have you found the Christianity with the right fruit today? If yes, which one among all Christians that we have today?

It is not my duty to go looking for Christians with the right fruits. I have seen many Muslims and atheists and Hindus and Christians and etc however, whom I'm certain the gods would need to be dumb if they turn them away from their heavens.

Budaatum, this is we should educate kids?
This guy is not a moRron, he is clearly insane.

Did buda recommend this person to teach your children?

heavy losses to who?

Let's wait and see shall we.

And no doubt, heavy losses too.

I'm asking because ....
