Honestly I don't know what happened to me yesterday, was having symptoms of malaria and someone advised me to get quinine tablet, I bought and took at morning and afternoon, but at night I noticed I could hardly pick out a sound anymore from what someone said to me unless the person shouted, with strange continuous sound ringing on my ear non stop. At a point I thought I was going deaf so I immediately stopped the drug and late this morning my hearing capacity returned to normal. Please doctors and pharmacist in the house is this a known side effect of the drug or do I need to go for check up cos the person who prescribed the drug said he has never felt such after taking it, which makes me worried.

What you have is called cinchonism and it's a side effect of quinine containing drug.
Stop the drug if you haven't already.
Next time, go to a professional instead of self medication.

I saw this post somewhere, so I decide to write one or two things about it. #Strictly my opinion

"“Biyi has. n’t worked for that long?” Dayo’s voice drips
with resentment. “For real?” “He’s been trying,” I say in
feeble attempt to defend my husband. “You know how
the economy is.”
…My husband and I had vowed never to bring in a third
party into our relationship but with a bank account
screaming for revival, I need to share my burden with
someone else. I grip the phone….
Dayo is unusually quiet. “You still there?” I asked.
“Hello?” “I am here,” she says. “I just didn’t know things
were this bad. And all this while, I thought Biyi was
providing for the home.” But he is, I argued silently.
Well, maybe not financially for now, but in every way
else, Biyi is a rock. “It’s not that bad.” My words sound
frail. Dayo clucks her tongue. “You might as well be a
widow.”..."

People with this kind of mentality shouldn't be allowed to get married or have children.
Rubbish

I am married so I am empty with no chance of being turned on by any female in my dream

That means you the not a Christian. Taking life that you can't create is evil in God's sight. You don't have the right to do it. If you like believe, if you like believe, if you like Dont believe. If anyone kills himself, he/she will be cut into hell fire. Judas in the committed suicide in the Bible for his evil, if he had being patient with God and repent for betraying Jesus, he would have bee forgiven. But unfortunately, he never believed that God could forgive him and he killed himself. That is exactly the situation of many committing suicide ideas today, instead of believing that God can intervene in their situation no matter how bad it is, they end killing themself which will amount to unbelief and murder. Which sin in God's sight and no sinner will ever enter heaven.

Matthew 27:3-5 KJV
"Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, [4] Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that . [5] And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself."

Ordinary unbelief is a sin before God, how much more suicide.

Revelation 21:8 KJV
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."

Saying that I should show you where suicide will lead to hell fire is like telling me to show you in the Bible where it says smokers will go to hell fire. My friend heaven is real and hell fire is real. Suicide is sin in God's sight. If one should kill another the authority will judge him and cast him into prison. But when one commit suicide no man can judge because he is dead. Only God will stand to judge him because he has done great evil by taking the life God gave to him for free. Two evil is involved ; he stole the life and the second is that he destroyed it.

Smoking is not a sin.
Suicide is not a sin.
Instead of you to proffer solutions, you're busy threatening them with hell fire.
When has threats ever worked in preventing suicide?

I've said it on numerous threads here.
Having​ sex in the dream and ejaculating in real life is a normal biological process. It has no spiritual connotations whatsoever.
It happens to everyone, atheists, theists, agnostics, deists, everyone.

Please can we have this debate? Please please.
Did Jesus exist or not.
I already did with Wilgrea.7, I want a bigger audience

gbegemaster:
What proof do you have that it does not?

You said it first, the burden of proof is on you.
I have mine, I want to hear yours.

gbegemaster:
seems you trolling now

I'm not. What proof do you have that the earth meant the ground we walk on and not the planet that God created?

gbegemaster:
Nope. The word Earth is used for the ground beneath our feet and the world.

The ground beneath our feet is firm and immovable. That's what those scriptures refer to.

And what is the planet called? The one that supposedly rotates on it's axis.

gbegemaster:
Is the earth beneath your feet not firm? Or do you prefer it unstable like the ocean?

You're obviously trolling, so, I'll let it slide.

gbegemaster:
In the Old Testament, Job 26:7 explains that the Earth is suspended in space, the obvious comparison being with the spherical sun and moon.

A literal translation of Job 26:10 is “He described a circle upon the face of the waters, until the day and night come to an end.”

A spherical Earth is also described in Isaiah 40:21-22—“the circle of the earth.”

Explain these
1 Chronicles 16:30: “He has fixed the earth firm, immovable.”
Psalm 93:1: “Thou hast fixed the earth immovable and firm ...”
Psalm 96:10: “He has fixed the earth firm, immovable ...”
Psalm 104:5: “Thou didst fix the earth on its foundation so that it never can be shaken.”
Isaiah 45:18: “...who made the earth and fashioned it, and himself fixed it fast...”

gbegemaster:
God created the earth and spun it about its axis. Since there's no other force strong enough to stop it's rotation, it's been spinning ever since.

But according to the Bible, the earth is flat.
So, where did this "spinning on its axis" thing come from?

lastchild:
I would have loved to teach you what you don't know but it's obvious you are not intelligent, so even if I taught you you will still reason like you did

My intelligence is never in doubt.
It's the job of the teacher to turn the unintelligent to intelligent.
Oya, nwa teacher, teach, I'm all ears.

hahn:
I hope you noticed there is a link, even two, to the source of the story

I've read the links, they just contained what's already in the Original Post.
They are wrong. It's common knowledge that it was the Protestants that removed the books.
The author of the article just wants to stir shittttttt up in my opinion.

unlimitedgrace4:
Av been experiencing pain wen I take deep breath for over two weeks now..I visited d hospital,was given injection and antibiotics BT still no relieve..I visited a laboratory today and was told its BILATERAL NEPHRITIS...pls doctors in d house can u pls expqntiate on dis..thanks

Why would you go for an abdominal scan when you're having chest pain.
Why didn't you do a chest x-ray?

Chicken pox is a viral ailment. Antibiotics don't work for it. Infact as far as your immune system is intact, you don't need to take anything, just calamine lotion for the itching.

luvmijeje:
Don't mind him. He has not read the story of King David who slept with one of his men's wife. He should read persecution of Apostle Paul who spearheaded the Killing of Stephen. God's forgiveness doesn't mean you won't bear the consequences of your sin while on earth.

OAM4J, may una release my post.

Why are you using Bible characters?
Use real life humans to illustrate instances of people who did bad and God forgave but still experienced repercussions for their bad deeds.

sonofthunder:
okay... show me the last person a psychiatrist did help.

A lot of people, full blown mad people roaming the streets, wearing tattered clothes, looking unkept and eating from dumpsters now have a life, hold down jobs and have families.
You didn't know all these, so, now you know.

When my dad's car got stolen, the pastor told us that the car was in a village called ngor-okpala and that it would be returned.
13 years later, no car in sight.
Pastor Adeboye told us that Boko Haram would be crushed before the end of the year. Almost 10 years later, them still dey.

Wilgrea7:
Never... ever... she has more insight into the supernatural plane than any of us.. i lost my insight as i grew older.. my cousin also has a similar gift

Then, she should go for the $1 million naa, see free money

MZLady39:
Well..I don't want to go that far. Dr.....that's quite harsh don't you think?

Having sex in the dream and ejaculating in real life is a normal biological process, I know people it happened to and they continued with their lives without any roadblocks.
Why is his own case different?
He should see a psychiatrist, really. He might be suffering from any of the numerous sleep disorders (his continuous nightmares) or outright psychosis.

sonofthunder:
there's a guy names 'lastchild' here, just search for him and read his own story. might go a step in shifting your perception.

I've read lastchild's thread. It's obvious the guy has Psychiatric issues.
He has gone to everyone except a Psychiatrist. Immediately he sees one, his story will change.

Wilgrea7:
clairvoyance is like being able to see into the future... what i was talking about wasn't my mother predicting my grandmother's death.. no.. lemme explain the story... my grandma was sick... we all knew that.. my mom was with my dad while my grandma was in another city entirely.. at the exact moment my grandmother died, my mom told my dad that his mom is dead.. that she just saw her spirit.. after about 5 minutes my dad received a phone call that his mother passed on just 5 minutes ago... coincidence?? i don't think so... schizophrenia?? hell no... A similar case happened with i uncle when i was still little... but that's a personal story

Intuition, I think.
How many times has she been wrong with her gift?

ScepticalPyrrho:
Sabergol99

I used to think that way, but I can't deny that the earlier people begin to realize the absurdities in their religious dogmas the better. One of such ways is to use this platform as a means to inform willing minds by contesting(criticising) their claims publicly. So, it's not about the monikers I'm exchanging posts with, it is about those who are ready to be honest in their quest for truth.

However, the transition into abusive words are mostly instigated by the theists who in most cases have ran out of sound arguments.

Recently, theists on this forum seem to be less concerned about engaging in intellectual discussions. They've observed for a while how their counterparts have lost several arguments, especially those relating to establishing reasonable connection for believing that Yahweh is the creator - if there has to be a "creator".

In my own opinion, as an agnostist, religious posits should be anchored on faith and belief alone. It never should be mistaken for factual realities.

If any theist agrees to the fact that his/her religious beliefs are only held by faith in the absence of proofs, I see no reason for abuses or prolonged arguments.

That's what they don't realize.
Put it down to faith and we won't have issues. But presenting it as facts, then we'll have to correct you so that you won't mislead the audience.

Wilgrea7:
you've made a really valid point @bolded... my mom has this spiritual insight.. she knew when my grandma died even before anyone knew.. plus other stories personal to me... but i doubt that spirits can be touched.. the only one i know of is astral forms being able to interfere physically to an extent

It's called clairvoyance, my mom does that too. They'll make 10 predictions and only 1 will come true. That's very poor returns. They work with expectation bias and confirmatory bias.
There's a standing prize of 1 million dollars and 200k euros for anybody who can demonstrate their psychic/clairvoyant abilities in a controlled environment.
That offer has been standing since 1995, no takers yet.
All these make me doubt the authenticity of people that "see things"

bigfrancis21:
Their level of spiritual development is the difference.

First you said Jesus was a not too advanced spirit. Then, you chimed in level of spiritual development.
How do I check my level of spiritual development for example?

bigfrancis21:
Yes it is possible for not-too-advanced spirits to materialize in earth form to someone still in the flesh to the extent that they could be touched. Thomas doubted so much the existence of an afterlife and Jesus re-appeared again (if I remember correctly) when Thomas was present with other disciples to show him his inner self did indeed survive bodily death.

Yes of course there are false people claiming to be different things. They exist out there, however if you have the gift of discernment, you could tell accurately real from fake. Existence of schizophrenic ones should not be taken to imply that everyone with the gift of medium is fake. There are many genuine ones out there.

What's the difference between regular spirits, not too advanced spirits and advanced spirits?

frank317:
Lol, God had three personalities.

-One is the father of the other two personalities

-One is the son of the other two personalities

-one is the spirit.

However they are one but can live separate off​ each other. Infact one can decide to go and live elsewhere, marry and have kids, pray to the other personalities and ask for help from his other personalities which are him too.

The father loves his other personality which is his son, recall he is him too. But he loves him like a son. In fact his other personality is his only begotten son who sits on his right hand side, but remember it is still him but just his other personality.

Am i sound like a mad man above?

Reminds me of this TV Show, United States of Tara.
It's about Multiple Personality disorder.
The things they say...

bigfrancis21:
Yet the spirit/soul of Jesus appeared to his disciples after his death? Let me ask you, have you ever though why Jesus had to do this - appear in discarnate form to his disciples after his death? He did this to show an example to his doubting disciples about the afterlife (such as Thomas or doubting Thomas) that the soul/spirit indeed survives after bodily death and there is an existence out there after life on earth. This is often misconstrued in Christianity as the 'resurrection'. There was no body resurrection, neither did Jesus have to resurrect his body for anything - the body is of this earth and to the dust of the earth does the body return to. The biblical 3 days Jesus is said to have spent in the 'grave', he actually visited this dark desolate place devoid of love Franchezzo had described to attend to dark lost souls like Franchezzo's and afterwards he returned to earth to reappear to his disciples to let them know that he was still alive but in another form. Jesus did NOT die for anybody's sins neither did he have to do that, this has got to be one of the most wrongly interpreted and twisted teachings of all times. You may be surprised to hear this, as it goes against what you have been told over and over again since you were born. One cannot live such a very bad life from age 10 to 60, committing all sorts of atrocities until the last minute, only to repent on your death bed, 'accept Jesus as your loving saviour' and die the very next day at 61 and think that 'your sins are absolved', or that you would be considered equal in the afterlife with someone of just ways and charity works all his entire lifetime. This negates common sense and reasoning. Every individual is responsible for their actions, whatever they've done, good and bad, and we redeem ourselves from our karmic actions through the cycle of give and take.

I am surprised that it is often overlooked the visit of Jesus to this dark desolate place which was described by Peter in your Christian bible, where he said:



The time he spent in this desolate place was about 3 days of earth time after which he reappeared to his disciples in his spirit form, so that they would believe the more in his teachings and go out there and proclaim to others what they had seen and learned from him. Jesus' true teachings are still found, untainted, in the gnostic gospels (gospels written by some of Jesus' disciples himself who had seen and heard firsthand from him, which are sadly and conspicuously missing in the handpicked and selected books of the Christian bible).

But Thomas touched him naa and felt the wound by his sides and whatnot. According to Christian spirituality, can you touch a spirit?
I won't even engage you on the Bible and it's authenticity and misinterpretations cos I don't believe in them.
There's no historical evidence that is provable that shows that Jesus the man existed.
In medicine, we have this saying, when we talk to God, it's called prayer, when God Talks back to you, it's called Schizophrenia.
I've seen enough schizophrenic people claiming​ to be God or receiving messages from the spiritual realm to know that this story is utter bullshitttttt.

Junia:
Thats what you can see or thats what you are forging yourself

According to the criteria for diagnosing multiple personality disorder, what you wrote up there fits perfectly.

Why people still believe in mediums and shittttttt like that still amazes me.
If I'm not mistaken it was written in the Bible, the story of Lazarus and the rich man where it was stated expressly that the dead have no communication abi contact with the living.
This is just a figment of the writer's imagination.
Who knows, the writer might be suffering from Schizophrenia and is seeing things.

Junia:
Yes. God is not one personality.
One personality of God became human to save mankind Being mankind, He was born and He was killed.
The Father demanded the blood of animals to forgive sins. And The Blood of His Son(Being God) had no end. So His Blood was shed once and for all.
God(The Father) raised God(The Son - Then fully human)

So, God is suffering from multiple personality disorder?
That's what you wrote up there.
Akintom, come and add this one to your collection.
