O Lord please come quickly and let all these serpents and devils be burnt forever and ever!

Dude, you are obviously brain dead already, so there really is no point acknowledging your existence further since breathing on you would not bring you back to life.

When your eyes do open, kindly let me know.

This is the point I'm trying so hard to make... My mum sometimes want me to interpret her dreams. I use her person to do so (if you understand)... If she sees snakes, she feels threatened. So I ask what's bothering her. It's not the same for me.

I feel you. To those who read only one book, the snake deceived Eve, despite the fact that what it said turned out to be true to the point that she became aware she was naked and covered herself and freed herself from slavery and became self employed and went in to populate the entire earth, according to the book.

Anyways can you look again into that reply? It appears you missed something. I did mention that I detest your kind of thinking. I detest shallow thinking. So don’t speak in defense, even God detest a carnal mind for its a shared hostility btw God and such mind.

I detest your mind too budda, it’s weak and nothing good comes from it. All it brings is thorn I hope you it doesn’t continue like this till you return to the ground.

Detest whatever you want to detest, that's your business. I would rather you remain on topic, but I can live comfortably with you detestation since your opinion of buda is irrelevant to buda.

Techobeys:
I’m telling you a fact that renowned psychologists know that sleep and death don’t make sense at all but here you are saying so many things.

You are not telling me any "fact". You are just giving me the little information that you have, and it is not even knowledge, as in not based on any evidence. And if you had psychoanalysed buda as you claimed, you'd know that you don't just "tell" buda anything without backing up your telling with facts and evidence. But then, you don't seem to know what facts are, it seems, or you'd know facts involve data and evidence which can be tested.

What you are doing is the same as what you read in your Bible and call "fact". The relevant portion is below.

And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”

Eve used her senses to check the evidence for herself to see if the above was indeed a fact. And what she found was the "fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom and for opening eyes", and for freeing one from slavery in the Garden of Eden and making one self employed.

Any psychologists that claims that "sleep and death don’t make sense at all", is not worth knowing. A psychologist would know the sense sleep and death make, and if they don't know then perhaps they ought to try doing some science, as in ask and seek and knock with their heart and soul and mind and entire being until they make sense of sleep and death.

Now, if you wish to prove your point, provide buda with the name of your "renowned psychologist", and where they said sleep and death do not make sense to them so I, your peer here, can see it and review it with my own heart and soul and mind.

This is another shabby thinking budda. Can you learn to think well pls?

Sleep and death don’t make sense. They’re illogical happening to life: we can only try to explain them bc they’re already happening but they go against reasoning.

I have a textbook written by renowned psychologists who also say this but here you are speaking without thinking again.

We see people like you on here a lot. You arrive here thinking you know more than everyone else and we all should just shut up and listen to what you say, then you shoot your own foot by claiming simple things that everyone understands are illogical and don't make sense to you.

Now, if only you could humble yourself and let things that seem illogical to you be explained to you by those who have bothered to eat the fruits of knowledge so they themselves know. But no, that's not what your sort do. What you do is ask us to be knowledge deficient like you are, and when we refuse, you revert to insults and detestations.

Sorry Techobeys. buda does not do slave in some poxy garden.

Don't pray for me please. Use the brain in your head to reason with me instead, for that is how you will show that you are a better person.

Every rational and able minded entity know that certain knowledge kill.

I don't know where you get your own "rational and able minded entity" from that knows that "certain knowledge kills". The rational and able minded entities that I know will inform you that there is no knowledge whatsoever that has the capability to kill anyone or anything. They would also inform you that it is what you do with knowledge that determines if you die by its use or misuse. I guess that's why the Bible refers to the Fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, as opposed to just the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

That said, kindly give me an example of the "certain knowledge" that your own "rational and able minded entity" know kills.

Knowledge, is facts, information, and skills acquired through experience or education. It is the theoretical or practical understanding of a subject.

Devilatum! Because every normal person understood that it did not say "you shall die immediately" but that we should look out for a thing called death.

Dliespeaker, living things die eventually, whether they eat a fruit or not is what you fail to comprehend. But I guess you read a book that was written by a god in heaven and not one written by human beings like you and I, so you must believe what you read in it and not use the brain in your head to comprehend what you read.

Do me a favour. Continue to avoid buda. I will however not avoid you now that I am aware of your existence. I have added you to my list too so I can't fail to notice you.

Techobeys:
This is exactly the same reason why I had to avoid you. You don’t think deeply, you speak (or write as the case may be) before you think.

My decision to avoid you was after I had engaged you and I constantly see your shabby thinking on many threads.

What more do I need for my psychoanalysis? Must I ring a bell before examining a person? This is why you have to be well behaved bc someone is always watching whether you know it or not.

I have psychoanalyzed you budda and there’s nothing fascinating inside of you, atleast not for me. Do you think you can avoid anything I post? Bc I would have not engaged you if you hadn’t jumped on this thread like you do in many, saying things beyond your level of understanding of the framework of life.

Yet, here you are, wasting your energy and time engaging with the buda that you claim not to want to waste your energy and time engaging.

Techobeys:
Also, would you kindly think realistically instead of looking at the text myopically? Would you relate with it instead of thinking it’s something in the book? Nothing will impact your life unless you relate with it, we know this bc we’ve read many books and every writer encourages us to relate with their writing.

If I hadn't engaged with the text, how do you think I could possibly identify the lie you have been told to believe?

Tell me, what sort of people would lie to you that you would die if you read a book? In the old days, they kept it in Latin so you could not possibly read it until some made it accessible to you in a language you can understand, yet here you are claiming knowledge kills.

I'll correct you.

Depending on who's dreaming, a snake may mean evil or it may mean good... It doesn't mean one thing. We are all different. I believe Owls symbolise wisdom and good luck. Others associate them with witchcraft.

Who's wrong? No one.

As in, dreams are subject to the individual, as opposed to objective where a snake means the same thing always.

I tell you, it's very easy to identify those who exercise their brain and those who don't bother but think they know.

Adam and Eve didn’t immediately cease to live when they ate of the tree, but they did lack awareness or become unconscious.

You either know not what you say or you blatantly lie, but let me provide you with the relevant text and let's see what you make of it.

When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.

Now tell me if the bold does not mean they became more aware and more conscious than they were before.

Techobeys:
You’re most likely unaware of why you’re engaging this thread but I have psychoanalyzed you from the very first day I got on Nairaland and I know you’re ignorant of your own psychology.

I think you speak with your ass and you lie. You've only been here since January 02, 2023, and the truth is, this is the very first time you have come across me or read anything I have written here, unless you want to claim I am so important that you took the time to read all the 1103 pages of my posts on Nairaland so you can adequately psychoanalyse me.

From your responses, I doubt you've read a single page, but when you do bother to read anything I have written, kindly share or quote it with comment so I get notified you've read me instead of asking me to believe your baseless lies without providing any evidence.

Funny enough, you show support for a book that supports equity in maths for black people. But when I ask you if you want that for your kids you said no.

Here is a pdf of the book
https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://equitablemath.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/11/1_STRIDE1.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiN4LzA18X9AhUGSkEAHSRFDtkQFnoECAsQAQ&usg=AOvVaw13Goj5AVlQmCSIGiyr2B1h

The first few pages state how it applies to education in general, and below is how it says wrong answers should be treated. Read it instead of regurgitating Daily Mail headline grabbers.

benalvino3:
So why were you supporting a book that wants equity for only black and Latinx student? Equity that is different from what white kids get. Equity that gives them a pass if they get 2 + 2 wrong. Equity for black and Latinx students... white ones should not benefit from it because of what?

Ben, what you describe here is not equity, and I do not agree that the "book ... wants equity for only black and Latinx student". That's sort of rhetoric is what you'd hear from Tucker and Fox to whip up their ignorant far right maga base knowing you would run with it on their behalf.

Equity is what everyone gets. It becomes inequity once it's not for everyone, like me giving my child superior education. Anyone who gives a pass for a wrong answer is promoting slavery and stupidity. It's the sort of policy America promoted during segregation whereby black schools were not funded as much as white schools. I do not believe black and Latins are so dumb they'd want to introduce what took years to abolish.

benalvino3:
So why did the book not say Equity in the educational system? why did it single out maths?

It's one book. It could have been written by mathematicians. There are books about equity in education too.

benalvino3:
how will your children be taught differently in a class because of their skin color? will the teacher ask them to close their eyes and ears or ask them to leave the class?

That's what was done during segregation in schools, and even in classes. And that "differently" was never superior to what white skin colour children got. It was inferior, and some of us have been pointing it out as the reason blacks are underprivileged today. The same thing happened in UK, whereby black students were encouraged to aim lower (bus driver, nurse etc), while white students were encouraged to aim higher (doctor, lawyer etc). Parents who have kids now do not put up for such inequity anymore, and nor do current students themselves.

If you teach children that a wrong answer to 2+2 is acceptable, you will also be teaching them the wrong ways to live life, so they end up in ghettos. That's the sort of nonsense I would not be surprised to hear the likes of Marjorie Taylor Greene promote so that blacks do not replace her, though I have not heard her promote any such blatant discriminatory crap.

Please look up the terms Individualized instruction, and differentiated instruction. It might help you understand how far equity in education has gone.

Also, read the pdf I've posted an extract of below so you know that inequity in education is far more than a wrong answer to 2+2. https://ncsi.wested.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/24-Examples-of-Systemic-Inequities-Skelton.pdf

Lmao... it is you who have serious issues with comprehension.
I said you support a book promoting equity for blacks and Latinx in maths but When I asked you if you want equity in maths for your kids you said no that is the funny thing here. you are confused

You lack the ability to comprehend. Let me state it clearly so you do not miss it.

I, buda, support equity in schools for all students!

Schools must provide equity in their teaching. It means schools must be fair and impartial in delivering education, which my kids will receive in school. My own children will then come home to me who will give them much more than equity so they do better than those who only receive equity in school. I after all have experience teaching maths, so why should my child be limited to equity in school?

benalvino3:
My issue here are you supporting something you think is bad for your own kids.

This shows your lack of comprehension.

Equity provided in school is not bad! It is in fact a good thing!

While I might want my child to receive superior treatment in school, I would surely not be happy if my child were given less than other students in school, so equity in school is a very good thing. I after all wouldn't want my child to receive less than other students in its class, or do you think I would?

If the teacher spends more time teaching my child so it does better than others. I would want that, but I sure would not like it if my child were the others. That's why equity in schools is good and fair. It is however not good enough in my own home where I will give my children extra superior education.

Just imagine if my child scored say 40% in a test, but the teacher decided not to be equiticious and gives my child an A*. If I were stupid, I might be happy, but my child will be dumb and long-term disadvantaged!

Equity, in my home, would be me teaching all the students in my child's class after paying for them to go to the superior school my child goes to. Surely, you don't expect me to pay your child's school fees and give it extra lessons in my house, or would you?

The rest is you not understanding what I've been saying all along, so hopefully the above will make you sing a different tune.

And note, I am responding to you because you seem to be trying to understand, though you insisting I am saying what I am not is tiring.

Mr budda I think you need to actually take some time to study these things. Think beyond your limitation and meditate properly.

God said if he eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil he’ll die.

Actually, we read in a book written by some people that God said.

Techobeys:
What do you understand by death? In the fold nature of life, death means lack of awareness. Lack of awareness is basically ignorance of what’s happening around.

Nonsense! Death means cessation of life. Discontinuation of living! When you die, your body will decompose and you will cease to exist.

Dude, I think English is a problem for you. Not many parents want equity in maths or education for their kids. That's why we pay to send them to good schools so they can get a superior education. But I understand your dilemma. If you had paid school fees instead of accepting the free inferior education you got you'd not be so dumb.
