I know it's hard for mythology fanboys like you to grasp elementary concepts, but one you should be learning quickly, is that the assertions of your mythology do not constitute fact. The assertion that your cartoon magic man even exists, is one we've been waiting for mythology fanboys like you to support with something resembling proper evidence. And by proper evidence, I do NOT mean regurgitating the very same assertions from your mythology we've been waiting to see supported with evidence, or peddling vacuous and risible apologetic fabrications that you've manifestly extracted from your rectal passage.

Another concept you should be learning quickly, is that a favourite discoursive tool of those of us who paid attention in class, is reductio ad absurdum. Namely, take an assertion presented to us, treat that assertion by hypothesis as purportedly constituting fact, then demonstrating that treating that assertion in said manner leads quickly to internal contradiction, absurdity and paradox. Applying this famous and robust discoursive technique, does NOT imply that we regard your assertions as true, when we subject your assertions to said treatment. Indeed, reductio ad absurdum has been a staple method within the world of pure mathematics for centuries, and as a corollary of having been deployed in that discipline, we are assured of the essential soundness of the technique.

As a further corollary of the above, just because you treat a merely asserted concept from your mythology uncritically as fact, doesn't mean anyone else here shares your strange predilection. Indeed, it's precisely because those of us who paid attention in class, learned the proper rules of discourse, as opposed to the bastardised version thereof adopted by pedlars of apologetics, that we regard all assertions as a free-fire zone for the deployment of discoursive weaponry. We don't care how "sacred" you think your assertions are, or how much they should be shielded from scrutiny, they will all receive the same discoursive artillery bombardment here.

As for your assertion that "divine wrath" is hard for us to grasp, those of us who paid attention in class are already laughing at you. The reasons for this will become apparent shortly.


The irony of being castigated on this matter by a mythology fanboy, is truly delicious to savour.


Except that, oh wait, what we're dealing with here, is the usual piling of assertion upon assertion by mythology fanboys.

First there is the assertion that your magic man even exists, which on its own is seriously problematic. Not least because your magic man is defined in your mythology, as an entity possessing internally contradictory attributes. The likelihood of any entity thus defined actually existing is vanishingly small for obvious reasons. Which on its own points to "sin" being a synthetic, fabricated offence against an imaginary entity.

Second, there is the assertion that the assorted individuals described as being subject to wholesale slaughter in your mythology, were "deserving" of their fate, an assertion that itself is massively questionable, not least because, if your magic man doesn't actually exist, then the requisite passages of said mythology are nothing more than self-justification propaganda on the part of the raving hordes performing the slaughtering. Even if your magic man does actually exist, your mythology presents two contradictory assertions within its pages, namely [1] that your magic man presented "thou shalt not kill" as a purported "commandment", then followed this by exhorting his raving followers to kill on a large scale. If you cannot recognise this as massively contradictory even on an elementary level, it merely demonstrates that your mythology fanboyism has corrupted and perverted your own reasoning beyond recognition. Then of course, we have the other assertion that mythology fanboys like you are so fond of, namely that your merely asserted magic man is purportedly the source of all morality, an assertion that falls flat on its face the moment said magic man exhorts his followers to commit mass murder.

Returning to the assertion that the victims of said slaughter purportedly "deserved" their fate, well this is both risible and dangerous. Such an assertion can be pressed into duplicitous service by the devious, to "justify" exterminating large numbers of people on the basis of any number of specious pretexts, and indeed, historically, was pressed into this very service by mythology fanboys in the past, frequently for naked personal gain. And indeed, naked personal gain was explicitly dangled in front of the raving followers of your magic man, according to easily referenced assertions in your mythology.

Which all, of course, pales into insignificance alongside the massive and blatant disconnect, between asserting that such behaviours are inexcusably criminal for humans to pursue, but purportedly "righteous" when ordered by your magic man, a hideously obscene piece of special pleading that should be obvious to a five year old.

If anything, the requisite assertions in your mythology point to the enormous dangers inherent, in allowing any entity to act as judge, jury and executioner simultaneously. But we're familiar here with the manner in which mythology fanboys erect convoluted apologetic fabrications, in an attempt to paint a fake veneer of "respectability" to the blatant manufacturing of synthetic excuses to hand-wave away entirely proper objections to the travesty of discourse, that is the entirely arbitrary declaration of special, "privileged" status for your magic man, on the basis of nothing more than mythological fiat. Because, at bottom, that's all you have - blind assertion to the effect that your magic man purported possesses the special, "privileged" status exempting said magic man from the same constraints which are simultaneously asserted to be proper to apply to us. This is nothing more than "one law for the powerful, another for the powerless" writ large. And your inability to recognise, this, points rather to your failure of basic intelligent reasoning.


The latter, of course, being one of the assertions presented in your mythology - namely, that the victims of this gleefully pursued mass murder, were subject to said slaughter because they dared to have a religion other than that of their murderers. You didn't think this through very hard, did you?


A specious and mendacious fabricated sophistical elision, to try and hand-wave away the hideous reality of the situation of the slaves in question. Numerous historical examples can be pointed to, demonstrating that hideous reality, which in some cases involved kidnapping, and in many cases lethally brutal exploitation. But I'm aware of the manner in which mythology fanboys like you ignore inconvenient historical facts that destroy your apologetics.


Either way, the assertions are risible. Oh wait a moment, there is NO mention at all of the "Satan" character in Genesis, and indeed, the earliest explicit reference to such an entity doesn't appear until 1 Chronicles 21:1, so I'm tempted to treat this as another mythology fanboy ex recto fabrication.


Oh really? So why was the snake in the Genesis fairy tale not explicitly described therein as having found its voice in accordance with your apologetic assertion? For that matter, why is there NO explicit mention of the "Satan" character until we reach 1 Chronicles 21:1?

Now let me guess...."Oh but context": "It's a metaphor" "It doesn't really mean that" " Hang on , let me get my Hermenutic goggles and give you several references from random places that contradict that verse...a bit..."

Dear oh dear...someone else can carry the slavery bag....

At the end of the day, your issue is not so much about what atheists fail to grasp about your concept of a god, as much as about what you fail to understand about atheists and how they think and rationalise.

Dantedasz:
Good day,
My sincere advice to you,is for you to get someone to go down to the port/terminal in order to know the true state of your container.
This agent Oliverjaid has a long history on this forum of not being true to his words. From my own experience when a clearing agent can not categorically tell you where the consignment is or the state of the clearance at a particular point in time that container MIGHT be under investigation by Customs. In my opinion that is the only situation that can delay clearing of a container for over a month and still counting.
Get someone to visit the port/terminal today in order to know the true state of your container before you find yourself pouring water into a basket. A word is enough for the wise.

OkoroPeugeot:
Pure bait and switch

amdman:
I have given him till the end of today to get the container out. After that, we move to step 2.

You must loose this match today?

Don’t under estimate the power of God. A day is too much for God to rearrange her life and all her miseries will not be remembered in pain.
God can do anything, mind you the baby could even be the source of joy, happiness and comfort .

Maximus69:
Disgraceful indeed for not INCITING PEOPLE TO AGITATION OR UPROAR!
Just say you hate Jesus, because that's exactly what he taught his disciples when he walked the earth!

Leah's parents aren't Christians for staying in areas where there is persecution of their FAITH! Matthew 10:23

So quote any part of the Christian Greek Scriptures (New Testament) that says you should stubbornly reside where your FAITH is under persecution!

OkCornel:
Life is full of many twists. Tomorrow is pregnant, offsprings of which are borne by today’s decisions.

Plot twist: Say 30 years from today, Leah’s child becomes a well known evangelist and her Boko husband accepts Jesus on his deathbed.

Yet another plot twist: 30 years from today, Leah’s child heads another terrorist militia.


Anyways, one thing is sure. This story ain’t ended yet.

Maximus69:
The girl in question tried with the little she heard about Jesus but SHE IS NOT YET A CHRISTIAN!

A lot of people wish to be worshippers of the true God but they lack the knowledge so they ended up perishing like pagan.

To get the sense of the whole thing, notice that she was taken along with her mates then she objected to the order of her captors and while the rest were released they held her back!

Now let's talk about FAITH in the true God, had it been she maintained her integrity to the end her captors would have killed her for standing on her feet for Jesus. That's why Jesus said "if you die for my sake, you will live" {Matthew 16:25} what happened shows that she has compromised her faith after lots of threat to her life!

Learn from the words of Hananiah (Shadrach) Michael (Meshach) and Azariah (Abednego), they told King Nebuchadnezzar who served as Devil's agent that day. Daniel 3:16-18

Notice that these three Jews were PREPARED TO DIE for their FAITH and they never expected any miracle even though they knew their God is potent enough to rescue them!

So let's just hope that the girl safely leaves that place, perhaps she would have the opportunity to learn the TRUTH about REAL FAITH and not Credulity that she had been taught!

ABINTUK:
Another mumu here.

Go fix your mother and father first before coming to talk with me.

God punish your useless mother.

DCmonster:
Crocodile will soon smile on ewedu gobbling cowards. You now want oduduwa Republic after betraying Biafrans and your southern brothers in 2015 election. Yorubas should know that they will never have AMOTEKUN NOR ODUDUWA REPUBLIC and neither will they ever get the presidency in 2023. The Fulani will continue to rule until you yorubas feel the pain Igbos felt and see the vision they saw years ago. Bunch of educated illiterate cowards.
