dunno,but maybe cus the word naira is not an english word; like yen, peso,denari etc. |
Rosike: how else can i break this to you? Don't be too fast to condem.The important thing about the scenerio i painted isn't about the lamp,the money,neither is it the comparison of God to man. Its just to grasp it a simple way. Read again to understand my point. |
"Why did God have to kill is son?" Even though the question itself is wrong,cus God didn't kill his son;but i'll take it you're trying to say. "Why did God allowed his son to die? Isn't there any other way? Can't an individual simply live a good life? If God is such a loving God,then wouldn't he accept all people just the way they are? Aren't there other ways also to a relationship with him?" A misunderstanding of the basic nature and character of God has been the cause to so much theological and ethical problems. Apart from love, holiness,justice,and righteousness is also true of God's nature. When he said the wages of sin is death,he is simply just being himself because he abhors sin. But he had to do something when man had fallen,and that proves his loving nature. Another thing we fail to understand is that when God said he has forgiving us,that doesn't mean a price won't be paid,cus for every act of forgiveness there is always a price to pay. For example let say a child breaks a lamp in a home,but the father who is a loving and forgiving dad say,"don't cry honey. Daddy loves you and forgive you." But then, who pays for the lamp? Even though the father forgave,the fact is the dad paid for the lamp. Which in this case, christ paid the price to uphold God's justice and righteousness,and at the same time,victory was made through his death. A judge preciding a case that involves his son,over a punishable crime cannot just say,"because he's my son and i love him,he is free to go." Won't there be questions asked about his integrity? The least the judge could do in such a case is taking his place;cus the price just must be paid;else justice would be murdered. |

I think religion is human trying to work their way back to God through good works and worships,but that unfortunately is not enough for us to have a relationship with him again; we even find it etremely difficult perfecting our good works because of the sinful nature we've inherited; just like it is impossible to change someone's DNA from his parent's. Christianity on the other hand is God knowing that our good works is not enough, he reconnect with us through christ, offering us a relationship with himself again. A christian is somebody who puts his trust in christ. Does this mean christianity is not a religion? God is certainly not a confusionist. |
No extra marks. |
Had a crush on my maths teacher then;and always wanted her in our class that she thought i simply love math very much. Got nothing but couple of assigments than normal. . . And i made me few enemies in class too. |
A month? Can do better na,unless they wont get the memo. |
^^^I thought as much too. If being able to argue blindly is the method use to measure ones intelligence propensity,then the quest for knowledge will be a waste of time. At least to start with,people i know making good grades,and people doing marvelously well in their various ventures are not atheist. |
This is just a religious knowledge survey,and it didn't say "athiest are the most intelligent people on earth," as the topic did. A general knowledge and intelligence survey will decide that. What are you saying my friend? The survey even said that "athiests and agnostics,jews and mormons are ammong the highest scoring groups," during the survey. Are you saying jews and mormons don't believe in God? Oh my! . . . Also, the survey is just for this year 2010. Did you care to look at the previous years results? I rest my case. This is no effort at all! I made a comparison about athiesm and scientology for clarity purpose. My comment about you not being able to see the air you breathe was just an expression. Because you can't see something does not mean they are not there. Hold your breath a few seconds and see how much your life depends on it. Because you can't see God doesn't mean he exist not! You're just enjoying his long-suffering! I think you should take a break on why God doesn't exist for the moment,and start focussing on why he does exist. Bring out your conclusions,facts,and figures on both;and then make a comparison. Av done that. It helped. |
@thehomer am sure dying to see the polls. You've meddled all together. If i can understand you,youre saying athiesm is a religion? Mann! Its just not true my friend. |

To start with;maybe you can see,even grab the air you breathe. But if you're denied even few seconds of it,you know how unconfortable that is. To have think that some people see and comprehend things beyond your own noble understanding,they must be insane,exibits your level of fatuity. I can now conclude beyond doubts that some people are truly wise,some are otherwise;while others choose to be wheather wise. Its takes wisdom to understand thist truth. |
I believe you decide to ignore the truth,thinking this exempt you from realities. You cannot sit on the fence. And the believe that, "if i cant see it,i won't believe it doesn't work here. |
You've really tried your best avoiding the questions and comfirmations i put to you;but is unaccetable the fact that your decline is on baseless accusations. Am a participating fan of science,and i know that most scientist(even the greatest ones) believe there is a creator. Am not trying to convince you,but at least don't make your stands on sheer ignorant of what's at stake;cus it is one thing to be wrong,and another not to know it. And that's worst. I must tell you also that you cannot comprehend God or his purposes by using telescopes,microscopes,or other scientific instruments. Think of a potter and a vase that he has formed. No amount of examination of the vase itself can give an answer as to why it was made. For that,we must ask the potter himself. I don't go to a biology book to learn the essence of life;or the question of why we are here. There is no incompatability between science and religion. Both are seeking the same truth. Science show that God exist,but to think otherwise is meaningless. |
@thehomer why are you dangling issues? Didn't you read the topic? The topic and previous posts argued that athiest are most intelligent people,which i refuted the claim by saying that athiesm does not profess intelligence;its just the decision not to believe in God. Any one can be intelligent, or not. I also said if at all we are talking of a kind of religion that focusses on such,scientology should be considered. Just so we both know,athiesm is not even a religion in the first place;so what's the fuse about? Were not here to outclass each other,rather were here to share views and knowledge. Pls don't see it as a competition. This part is far settled. All u highlighted about reincarnation and so on, are they not human philosophy of life? Its the method of human discovering his inner self,and nature at large. And that's where indepth and rational thinking comes in(scientology). You can say one thing in different words,and yet,still make the same meaning. The universe must have a beginning but what scientist can't explain is why. The answer is God. The only person that can answer all these question is the creator of the universe himself. And the bible is where you can get the substantiated truth. And over the years,many scientist validated its authenticity. While others that missioned to discredit is validity failed. Check my previous post to read more. You are not created by acident. The biggest calamity that can befell one is not knowing your origin,therefore relying of other human like you to tell you,which the answers they bring always spring-up many more questions . Its degrading! |
@kay do you know that the theory of evolution dictates that life originated by blind chance? Biologist william province says that darwinism means "no ultimate foundation for ethics;no ultimate meaning for life. Some scientist choose to ignore the extensive research of other scientist who contradict the theoretical foundations for their theories on the origin of life. An astronomer david block once said, "a man who does not believe in a creator would have to have more faith than one who does. In declaring that God does not exist,a person makes a sweeping unsubstantiated statement- a postulate based on faith". The big bang that happend 12 billion years ago. Why did it happen? How did the particles get there in the first place? What was there before? These are things science assumed it happend,and maybe they did;but science will never satisy human hunger for answers. That's why even scientist,and other thinking people find it plausible to conclude that the physical laws and chemical reactions as well as DNA and the amazing diversity of life all point to a creator. There is no irrefutable proof to the contrary. Unless unreasonable doubts and argumennts. I believe you to be wise? |
thehomer: thehomer: |
Yeah,life is fun(am even watching football right now)my friend. But we are definately not here to watch football only,we have responsibilities to the giver too. . . .sorry pls, . . .goal!!! |
@mr kay17 if you don't have any meaningful arguement or contribution,i think you should sit back;cus its a different thing to disagree to my comments,provided you make your points as to why you do;and another diffrent thing entirely not saying why you disagree;cus,honestly, we both don't have the time . @thehomer i can see you really don't understand what scientology is all about,all you know is that, "is just a moderm religion of celebrities". Its definately more than that. If you need evidence as to if God exist,ponder on why you exist first,cus its the first step;and i believe you just don't exist for the fun of it. And i know darwin and his friends have different,and contradictory theories of where you came from. Don't be surprise when another comes out with some theories again tomorrow,cus they are confuse too. |
@kay 17 at least you only said is degrading . |
@thehomer yeah,we both know scientololy is a particular religion entirely,which i explained. But the original poster and some previous comments suggested "athiest are the most intelligent people,"which is not true cus anybody can be an athiest,even a dummy. Athiesm is just a decision not to believe in God,and has nothing to do with the person's intelligence. Scientology on the other hand is a religion on its own that focusses on human knowledge and perpetual intelligence in every phases of life,for spiritual fulfilment. Is a religion that deals with knowledge. For someone to be an athiest doesn't mean he embraces scientology. And for crying out loud,even a thiest seek to attain knowledge and embraces pure science. And for me to ask if your comment on darwinism is a new twist,is just sarcasm,cus sharing the same ancestory with monkeys and gorillas doesn't make it any better. We're saying the same thing. Unless you want to check on darwin's theory of human evolution again. |
Oh! That's a new twist. Its a shame you share a common ancestry with monkeys. Hope you don't scream when you wake up with a tail one day. |
Osaze will be the devil throwing stones into man united's court. Hope he's fit for the game. |
A win in this match will be a catalyst for better results in subsequent games. Just hope liverpool win,to start a new dispensation under NESV for real. |
You can say that again! |
Hurray! The deal had just been completed. NESV is now the current owner of liverpool FC . |
^^its not always about the highest bidder. Though peter lee and others proposed to pay higher,but is also good for the club to be in save hands. The larger package of NESV is quite good- like building a new stadium. The saga will be over in few hours. Hope they meet the creditor's deadline,which is today 3pm. |
I thought this was suppose to be a welcome party. . . . Welcome, poster. You can find what you're looking for here;even if is the least of all places. |
All will be adequately deducted during the next bugetary allocation. |
