TravelRe: Expanded Terminal Opens At Murtala Muhammad Airport Lagos(photos) by cold(m): 4:48pm On Dec 23, 2013
My grouse with GEJ,is he makes one positive step forward & just when you're about to start singing his praises he takes 5 negative steps backward.He has been consistently inconsistent.Well,this is one positive move though.
RomanceRe: Should Sex Really Wait Until Marriage. A Case For Both Sides. by cold(m): 4:37pm On Dec 23, 2013
It's simply a matter of choice.If you insist on the 'no sex before marriage',good for you.If you prefer the 'no sex,no marriage'option,good for you too.People should learn to respect & tolerate other people's decisions so long as it does not infringe on your fundamental rights & stop trying to foist their opinions everyone else's throats.
Christianity EtcRe: Should Church Refund The Tithe To My Brother? by cold(m): 11:21am On Dec 23, 2013
@op,your brother should approach his pastor and explain the situation to him.The tithe has been nullified with the recent turn of events.If his pastor declines to refund the money or give him some excuse like 'God will provide an alternative' ,'i'll be praying for you' or some other inane excuses they come up with,it will only confirm what we already know.Whilst i don't intend to get into the religious debate,I can't help but wonder at the peculiarities of some these beliefs.Does god have a bank account?

maclatunji: So you did and did not find that I had already answered most of your points already raised by other people?

Sorry cold but you bring very little that is new to this discussion/debate. The part that I feel is worth addressing is predicated on your belief in the existence of God and is outside the scope of this thread.
More appropriately,outside the scope of your intelligence. It's ok,i get it
Christianity EtcRe: A Lecture For Atheists by cold(m): 8:05pm On Dec 22, 2013
maclatunji: Review the thread, you came late.
I had already done that before posting my questions. Now if you would stop prevaricating and answer directly it will be very much appreciated
Foreign AffairsRe: Justine Sacco - "Going To Africa. Hope I Don't Get AIDS..... I'm White" - by cold(m): 6:32pm On Dec 22, 2013
The PR executive who was summarily dismissed after her racist Tweet sparked a revolt on social media has apologised - as her own father called her a ‘f****** idioť’.

Justine Sacco said that she was ‘ashamed’ over her actions and said she had been ‘cavalier’ in making her tasteless joke about the AIDS crisis in Africa

But her father, who has not been publicly named, was more forthright and said that what she did was ‘unforgivable’.He also apparently backed the campaign to name and shame his daughter as, in an ironic twist, it emerged he moved his family from Cape Town to the US in 1994 to escape racism at the end of Apartheid.

Sacco is now thought to be holed up with her family in South Africa and will be spending Christmas coming to terms with her sudden ascent to the Internet's public enemy no.1.

Losing her job as a communications director could also mean losing her US work visa -potentially forcing her to leave America.

Sacco was fired by IAC, a major US media company which owns Match.com and Vimeo, after she sent the Tweet as she was about to board a 12-hour flight from London to Cape Town.

It read: ‘Going to Africa. Hope I don't get AIDS. Just Kidding. I'm White!'

The post was retweeted over 3,000 times and was picked up by media outlets around the world, however Sacco remained completely unaware of it all because she was in the air.

The blonde publicist was pictured arriving in Cape Town looking shocked and talking on her phone.

Moments later the offending Tweet and Sacco's Twitter account disappeared - and IAC announced it had fired her.

Now she has apologised in a statement released to The Star, a South African newspaper.

It read: ‘My greatest concern was this statement reach South Africa first.

‘Words cannot express how sorry I am, and how necessary it is for me to apologize to the people of South Africa, who I have offended due to a needless and careless tweet.

‘There is an AIDS crisis taking place in this country, that we read about in America, but do not live with or face on a continuous basis. Unfortunately, it is terribly easy to be cavalier about an epidemic that one has never witnessed firsthand.

‘For being insensitive to this crisis -- which does not discriminate by race, gender or sexual orientation, but which terrifies us all uniformly -- and to the millions of people living with the virus, I am ashamed.

Christianity EtcRe: A Lecture For Atheists by cold(m): 5:26pm On Dec 22, 2013
maclatunji: That is your claim. My claim is that God is the source of everything.
And where does your god come from? How did he come about? What are his attributes? And while you're at it,please specify the exact god you're referring to out of the 30 million or so gods scattered all over.
Furthermore,if i have to accept that there's a god,will any god suffice,or i have to subscribe to a particular god?
Your move
Christianity EtcRe: A Lecture For Atheists by cold(m):
Oh ok i get it now. It smacks of unintelligence to claim you believe in nothing. But it is perfectly sensible & intelligent to claim your god came from nothing. Yeah seems legit,makes perfect sense

Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Atheists Always Debate Theists And God's Existence? by cold(m): 1:26am On Dec 22, 2013
kambo: "based on the bible " in what way?
Explain.
Tht hitler was a religious christian who found injunctions in the bible to do wat he did knowg it pleased God?
Like you'll find injunctions to pray without ceasing, avoid sexual immorality , bitterness etc.
Please be clear.
There is an overabundance of verses that declare God has a chosen people. Psalms 33:12 Blessed is the nation....and people whom He hath chosen for His own. John 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own....but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Also Psalms 105:43, 106:5, Mark 13:20, Acts 13:17, Deut. 10:15, 14:2. Additionally, the election of God points to divine specifications: I Peter 1:1-2 to the strangers (Israelites) scattered....the elect according to the foreknowledge of God. Romans 9:11 For the children (of Israel) being not yet born, not having done anything good or evil, that the purpose of God according to the election might stand. If this isn't enough prejudice, God further elevates His Chosen to be above (remember the definition of superior?) other people. Deuteronomy 7:6 For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God, the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, ABOVE all people that are upon the face of the earth. Exodus 19:5 ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me, above all people. Also Deut. 7:14, 14:2, 26:19, 28:1,13 , II Samuel 22:48-49, Psalms 45:7, Micah 4:1, Isaiah 2:2.

So what happens to the non-Israelites? Psalms 47:3 He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet. This is beginning to sound like God is a racist!

Nothing has raised man to the peaks of creativity or lowered him to depths of destruction than the dual notion of racial similarity and differences. Both have biological overtones for the individual and groups of individuals. It is the inevitable characteristics of one group that differentiates from another. Whether you like it or not, this is the reality of race in a nutshell. Race goes far beyond the color of skin. The concept of race encompasses so many facts and fictions, love and hate, reason and unreason that is more easily sensed than understood
Christianity EtcRe: Why Do Atheists Always Debate Theists And God's Existence? by cold(m): 5:59pm On Dec 21, 2013
NativeBoy: And This is where I diverge from you. This is a scary proposition. When man is accountable to no one, what you will find is utter destruction.

You might think religion is evil. I pray you do not see a world where man makes himself a god. What you find is death. One needs to look at the regime of Hitler, Stalin, and Mao. And more so than all others, we Africans will pay the deepest price.
You've got to be kidding me. Hitler's principles of Aryan superiority were based on Christianity & the bible. Thus,your argument is invalid. Human conscience is enough restraining factor for any right thinking person. No god needed,no religion needed

Talking about craddle robbers 80% of your Igbo fathers are because I have a friend whose mother got married @ the age of 13 and according to her mum,it was common in those days....

Christianity EtcRe: All Facts About Linda Testimonies Of Hell by cold(m): 5:10pm On Dec 16, 2013
Funny how the Jewish god has often be referred to as loving when overwhelming evidence points to the contrary. I have yet to meet a Christian who was able to explain Isaiah 45:7 to me properly. Where god in no unambiguous terms rightly lay claim to creating evil. I know i won't get the answer here either or any other place for that matter. They just waive it off dismissively,ask you to ignore it & just worship him. After all, 'everyone else is doing it'. Why do you think you can be different..sigh

It's obvious you know nothing about your god. You just keep following blindly like a sheep being led to the slab.This comes as no surprise as 90% of Christians don't know a damned thing about their religion or its god. They're just happy to be led like sheeples..sigh

Christianity EtcRe: Should Men Of God Have Bodyguards? by cold(m): 8:03pm On Dec 14, 2013
Joagbaje: Security is just a simple common sense. Certain measure may be taken when there's security concern . It is simple common sense. Jesus took security measures when such need arose . Paul took security measures when such need arose . If a man of God feel the need of measures in the face of robbery , assassin or kidnappers , he is free to take such measure according to his level of faith. That doesn't take away prayers. Because after all theses measures have been taken . We don't put faith in them . Safety is still by God. But the physical measures cAn prevent some evil
Dayum bro! You'll defend anything & everything no matter how sickening it sounds or look. How do you sleep at night?
Christianity EtcRe: Should Men Of God Have Bodyguards? by cold(m):
If a so called man of god can't have enough faith in his god for protection,why should i? Even Okotie knows god doesn't exist and he's just in it for the money gullible Nigerians are ever willing to part with. The bodyguards are there just in case a member of the congregation tries to act the føol & make away with the tithes & offerings

Carnal minds do not understand spiritual things. How I feel? That the atheist will see the light one day.

It's main tenets - love, freedom, forgiveness, humility, selflessness, compassion.

I see the passing of the great man as the perfect opportunity to create a new African philosophical/spiritual belief system based on his humanist principles.
I would gladly follow this religion over some old geezer & his Jewish zombie son
