It is clearly evident that the so called born again repents here doesn not read the bible except selected verses dished out by their cash hungry pastors.

No one has yet given me a point to prove this is wrong.

Be enlightened. Any one of U̶̲̥̅̊ should go and meet his/her pastor with these questions ad you will be suprised with crazy answers they'll tell you.

Wake up, this is 2012!!!

Stop saying Google!!!

Is Google your GOD

Give us proof here, I don't care whether u copy from google or elsewhere. So if this was 1980 you will still ask me to ask google right?

Reyginus: You are still yet to come clean.
Do you agree with the article, Yes or No?

Scientifically, I do. Religiously, I don't.

Did all these happened as it was written or did someone wrote a lie?

You don't need to be brainwashed or filled with the holy spirit to get it. Simple common sense is enough.

kpozite: Look Mr man call your mind back from where it is being led. Though I find it difficult not to believe evolution, I still believe in the Bible and there is a lot of similarity between both (evolution and biblical record of creation) if you understand evolution very well.
Believe me this argument between science and religion has been on for a long time now and no party has won both have their strong point and their short comings. So while scientifically listing the faults of the Bible do well to biblically check out the folly of science as there are much you will be surprised to find. This argument does not pay so effort is now being made to find where both parties agree.

Give me a list of some of the follies...and by the way, don't turn this thread to a Science vs Religion one.

We are only verifing the Authencity of the Bible with what is happening in TODAYS global world. Or you want to tell me these things only happened in the biblical past?

Is the bible authentic?

Just a simple question.

In the scientific world I see most of the above as really inconsistent. However I do not believe in EVOLUTIoN (or rather I havent got the reason to) and i dond think I can.

So Im expecting someone learned in the verses to prove to me beyond resonable doubt that these inconsistensies are not really inconsistencies.

Is that too much to ask for, y'all Born Agains?

I did not write the article. However, these are wide eyed contradictions. You will agree to that wouldn't you?

LOVES TO SHOW OFF

Just stumbled on this from the Internet and I wanted to share. Frankly, they are mind boggling (except to shortsighted people who blindly follow "the crowd" I am a christian i.e I believe in Jesus as the Son of God (Jehovah), our Creator. I am not an Atheist or a Moslem. But I believe I have the right to believe what I think it is right for me.

This thread is open to criticism and bashings but please be abstract and PLEASE HAVE A POINT!!!

Here a few of the 'Inconsistencies' and if you want to check out the whole list (which was generously updated from Genesis to Revelation) then check it out here : www.cs.umd.edu/~mvz/bible/bible-inconsistencies.pdf


I m taking excerpts only from GENESIS.

Genesis

God creates light and separates light from darkness, and day from night, on the first day. Yet he didn't make the light producing objects (the sun and the stars) until the fourth day (1:14-19). 1:3-5

God spends one-sixth of his entire creative effort (the second day) working on a solid firmament. This strange structure, which God calls heaven, is intended to separate the higher waters from the lower waters. This firmament, if it existed, would have been quite an obstacle to our space program. 1:6-8

Plants are made on the third day before there was a sun to drive their photosynthetic processes (1:14-19). 1:11

"And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth." Really? Then why are only a tiny fraction of stars visible from earth? Under the best conditions, no more than five thousand stars are visible from earth with the unaided eye, yet there are hundreds of billions of stars in our galaxy and a hundred billion or so galaxies. Yet this verse says that God put the stars in the firmament "to give light" to the earth. 1:17

God makes the animals and parades them before Adam to see if any would strike his fancy. But none seem to have what it takes to please him. Although he was tempted to go for the sheep.) After making the animals, God has Adam name them all. The naming of several million species must have kept Adam busy for a while. 2:18-20

God curses the serpent. From now on the serpent will crawl on his belly and eat dust. One wonders how he got around before -- by hopping on his tail, perhaps? But snakes don't eat dust, do they? 3:14

God curses the ground and causes thorns and thistles to grow.

God created a man and a woman, and he "called their name Adam." So the woman's name was Adam, too! 5:2

God opens the "windows of heaven." He does this every time it rains. 7:11

"The windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained." This happens whenever it stops raining. 8:2 Whatever happened to the Water Cycle?

Noah sends a dove out to see if there was any dry land. But the dove returns without finding any. Then, just seven days later, the dove goes out again and returns with an olive leaf. But how could an olive tree survive the flood? And if any seeds happened to survive, they certainly wouldn't germinate and grow leaves within a seven day period. 8:8-11

Noah kills the "clean beasts" and burns their dead bodies for God. According to 7:8 this would have caused the extinction of all "clean" animals since only two of each were taken onto the ark. "And the Lord smelled a sweet savor." After this God "said in his heart" that he'd never do it again because "man's heart is evil from his youth." So God killed all living things (6:5) because humans are evil, and then promises not to do it again (8:21) because humans are evil. The mind of God is a frightening thing. 8:20-21

According to this verse, all animals fear humans. Although it is true that many do, it is also true that some do not. Sharks and grizzly bears, for example, are generally much less afraid of us than we are of them. 9:2

God worries that people could actually build a tower high enough to reach him (them?) in heaven. 11:4 - Imagine, - long before the discoveries of galaxies and nebulas.

Poor Pharaoh couldn't resist the "very fair" Sarai, and he takes her into his harem. (She must have been well preserved, since she was about seventy years old at the time.) 12:15

The LIST IS LONG BUT THIS SHOULD GET US TALKING.

There will always be magas. No matter how educated or widely travelled they claim to be...


It always boil down to their IQ.

How does this stupid rambling from an old twisted fuc (whoever wrote the thread) affect my life?

I have practically used all phone os and even though, i couldnt compare the BB OS with that of android or iOS, heck, even symbian, I have come in terms with the fact that the BB is for me. It gives me a whole lot more than what I want, productivity and socal wise.

99.9 percent of people with all these so called HD exta smartphones does not even have a single HD video on their phone. If I'll ever use another phone,I'll still have my spare BB.

So haters should die.

PS: Na dose useless ashawo girls wey dey use bb for dia market cause all these BASHINGS. Cause they have no other use for it except for pinging!!!

Who/what is royal? A new breed of attention seekin rabid dogs?

youmour: *yawns* I still say Abacha was a great leader

Imagine

Reyginus: No. It is not possible.
By default, once one is an atheist, it negates him the chance of any reward from God.

Who gave you the phucking right to Judge? Are you perfect yourself? You want to tell me you be virgin by marriage?

Bleeptards!

thought I should share to put some
laughter on your face and ease the
stress off your day,read below:
.
GEJ met with the Queen of
England. He asked her, "Your Majesty,
how do you run such an efficient
government? Are there...any tips you
can give to me? I want to help Nigeria" "Well," said the Queen, "the most important thing is to surround yourself with intelligent people." Jonathan frowned, and then asked, "But how do I know the people around me are really intelligent?" The Queen took a sip off her cup of tea. "Oh, that's easy; you just ask them to answer an intelligent riddle." The Queen pushed a button on her intercom. "Please...send Tony Blair in here, would you?" Tony Blair walked into the room and said,"Yes, Your Majesty?" The Queen smiled and said, "Answer me this please. Tony,your mother and father have a child. It is not your brother and it is not your sister. Who is it?" Without pausing for a moment, Tony Blair answered, "That
would be me." "Yes! Very good," said
the Queen. Jonathan went back home
to ask N.Sambo, his vice president the same question. "Sambo, answer this for me, Your mother and your father have a child. It's not your brother and it's not your sister. Who is it?" "I'm not sure, said Sambo. "Let me get back to you on that one..." He went to his advisors and asked every one, but none could give him an answer. Finally, one night, he ran into Dora Akunyili Sambo asked, “Dora, can you answer this for me? Your mother and father have a child and it's not your brother or your sister.
Who is it?" Dora answered sharply,
"That's easy, it's me! Sambo smiled,
and said,"Thanks!" Then,he went back to speak with Jonathan.
"Sir,I did some research and I have the answer to that riddle. It's Dora Akunyili" Jonathan got up angrily,frownin, he said to Sambo. No wonder Nigeria isn't moving forward, I don't have intelligent people around me.! You Dummy! The answer is Tony Blair!!!!

Now that was a very funny piece. So the 'Retardeen' is indeed dumb!!!!

Only in Nigeria things are done backwardly.....2012 budget not yet implemented and GEJ went ahead to present 2013 budget....dude must be thinking we are fools! http://www.punchng.com/news/reps-threaten-to-stop-2013-budget/

The deepening rift between President Goodluck Jonathan and the National Assembly, particularly the House of Representatives, over alleged poor implementation of the 2012 budget, may imperil the 2013 budget.

Jonathan had on Wednesday presented N4.9tn budget to a joint-session of the parliament, a move aimed at ending the debilitating ritual of late passage.

But investigations on Friday indicated there might be no budget for 2013 if members of the House carried out their threat not to touch the document, until a satisfactory implementation of the 2012 budget was achieved.

A Principal Officer of the House and leader of the opposition, Mr. Femi Gbajabiamila, confirmed the underground moves to SUNDAY PUNCH.

Similarly, a committee chairman said, “The Executive cannot continue to take us for a ride; we are the representatives of the Nigerian people, we feel their pulse more than anyone else.

“Visit the various states, people are suffering because most of the capital projects in the 2012 budget have not been implemented.

“In many of the cases, the contracts have not even been awarded; this year is one of the worst and we have never had it this bad. We have to thrash all this out.”

Also, such hard stance has echoed in the Senate as its Deputy Minority Leader, Senator Ganiyu Solomon, said the Senate would demand from Ministries, Departments and Agencies, proof of full implementation of the 2012 budget before approving the allocations of the 2013 budget.

He told one of our correspondents in Abuja that, “The MDAs will have to justify what they were given in 2012 if they intend to get further allocation in next year’s budget. That is where we are going to wait for them.”

The senator maintained that it made no sense if figures were announced as budget and no development was achieved.

It was learnt that opposition party members in particular were mobilising lawmakers across board to reject the budget.

Reports of the various committees of the House on the just-concluded assessment tour of 2012 projects to the six geopolitical zones, gave low rating of the implementation.

It was gathered from the House Committee on Works that “more than 80 per cent of the roads they claim to be working on are at a standstill.”

“We could not get convincing explanations on roads they reportedly constructed,” it said.

The Federal Government had a budgetary outlay of N4.7trn for 2012.

As at October 10 when Jonathan laid the estimates of the 2013 budget before the National Assembly, only N711.6bn out of the 2012 capital component of about N1.3tn had reportedly been released to the MDAs.

The fiscal calendar closes on December 31, 2012.

While lawmakers described the performance of the budget as “abysmal,” the President blamed the late effective take-off of the budget in April, as one of the major reasons for the scenario.

Out of the N4.9tn, a total of N1.5tn is set aside for capital projects, about 5 per cent increase from the 2012 figure.

“On paper, they want the world to believe that they are going to spend more on capital projects next year and can’t understand why we are not cheering them.

“Where are we now in the implementation of the 2012 budget? This is October, the year ends in less than three months,” an angry lawmaker noted.

Gbajabiamila said lawmakers were boiling over the “shoddy” implementation of the 2012 budget.

He added that the apparent refusal of the Executive to bend its position, and accept any of the budget frameworks of the House on the 2013 proposal, had worsened an already strained relationship.

He said, “We have to sit down as a House and collate all the results of the committees that went on oversight visits and take a stand.

“So far, the reports are not impressive. We will insist on the implementation of the 2012 budget.”

Gbajabiamila explained that many lawmakers wanted the House to declare zero budget for 2013, if the executive could not convince them further, on how it implemented the 2012 budget.

He said, “For the first time in the history of this country, if it means that in a particular year, there will be no budget, let us do it.

“We can ask them to go back and complete the implementation of the 2012 budget, even if it means using the same budget for 2013.

“This may be the first time in the history of this country that we may repeat a budget; there may be appropriation in 2013, but it has to be along the line of the 2012 budget.”

When contacted, the spokesman of the senate, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, said, “Our expectation is that the 2012 budget will be fully implemented as promised by the President.”

The Chairman, House Committee on Health, Mr. Ndudi Elumelu, admitted that the budget performance in 2012, especially in health sector, “wass very poor and disheartening.” But he said neither the President nor the Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, was to blame.

He explained, “It is the fault of the MDAs that have decided to treat our national budget with disrespect thereby exposing their lack of capacity and incompetence in application of funds released to the projects as provided in the description of the budget itself.”

But he advised his colleagues that rather than rejecting the budget, they should address all the grey areas with the executive or else Nigerians would be made to suffer for no fault of theirs.

“We will not reject the budget because it is not for an individual but for the Nigerian people in general and as true representatives of the people, we must do what is right.

“I believe that our people deserve the best and as such, we should try not to increase their pains by refusing to touch the proposed budget as presented by Mr. President.

“Rather, we should pass it and let us charge our respective committees to intensify their oversight functions so that all projects for 2013 are executed”, he said.

On his part, the Deputy House Majority Leader, Mr. Leo Ogor, said, “There are many options to look at as a House. We are still studying our reports.

“At the end of the day, it is still our duty to panel-beat the budget. There is no way we can reject the budget.”

On Wednesday, the Speaker of the House, Aminu Tambuwal, had told Jonathan that the reports of committees on the implementation of the 2012 budget were “clearly unimpressive.”

Tambuwal received a standing ovation from members for his hard-nosed posture.

He reminded Jonathan that whenever members stopped demanding full budget implementation, they had failed as legislators.

Imagine... A thread just jumped on the front page with just one comment!

Gbam! Lo ba tan.
