Christianity Etc › Re: Happy Independence Day ... To Me by DeepSight(m): 2:08pm On Jul 07, 2025 |
LordReed: Maybe because I was kinda ambivalent about the issue. People don't want to be disrespected by being misgendered, accord them that courtesy, it won't cost you anything. On the other had I don't think it requires legislation. It's like setting up a law to stop people from saying "Fųck You", it's extreme for what I think is a courtesy issue. Jordan Peterson in my opinion was entirely too combative about it to the point LGBTQ haters had him as their prophet. Not somebody I want to give my time listening to. Legislating it was way too far. |

You created a thread saying no one can know the attributes of God and then began to insist that you know Jesus is God because of his attributes. |

CoronaVirusPro: Sahara reporters need to invest heavily into their propaganda machine. What you get when you employ cheap labour to cook propagandas for you. Same with Papa Oseloka, always recruiting dullards for media publicity.
Like how do you expect a sane, logical and in-tuned person to believe this cheaply made and quack statistics.
These agents don’t know who they actually up against. Using WAEC holders to manufacture propaganda that cannot even sell to a dullard.
Anyways, such statistics moves and shakes nothing. The re-election of His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) is guaranteed and a constant. Take a deep breath and be honest for a moment. What percentage of Nigerians would you estimate trust Tinubu? |

plaetton: First of all, you started the thread ,not me.
Secondly, I would not come to Nairaland to seek clarification on a deep theological subject when I can do the research myself. I can only do so when I already have the answer, and ready to bamboozle my opponents with the answer at the right moment.
I can, and would certainly use the results of my research to refute their arguments if the need arises.
You ,oh wise one, surely you know the difference between a discussion and a debate. In a discussion everyone is free to offer educated opinions. In a debate ,you come with facts to buttress your position.
What is your position in this debate and what are facts that you come with ?
Your position here has been ; answer my nagging question or else . Else what ? How did you conclude that this is a discussion or a debate and why? I trust you see from my flip of the script how ridiculous your responses have been. |

LordReed: Never liked him. Jordan Peterson is going to cause many people to wreck themselves imho. Such a pity. I liked him at the beginning but I later realized that was because I was only seeing one aspect of him, namely his opposition to the forced gender terminology of trans people. I was also very opposed to that so everything he said resonated with me. But the minute he began to have debates with people like Sam Harris on societal and existential issues, I began to see him more holistically and clearly. He hadn't even come out then as borderline white supremacist. As of today, he has lost so much integrity, goodwill and respect which he initially had. It's such a shame. It taught me a lesson. Not to jump to conclusions about anyone because you strongly agree with their views on one subject. |

Lemme guess you watched Jordan Peterson and are following his nonsense definition of worship. I sincerely hope you prove me wrong on this. A man that started out well but has now been revealed as a true nut job of the highest order. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Inexplicable Instincts by DeepSight(op): 12:43pm On Jul 07, 2025 |
plaetton: You keep insisting that I answer his question. Let us flip the script for a moment. How would you see it if you pointed out some flaws and gaps in logic of some religious doctrines and the adherents of that doctrine came back to you saying the following - - Nairaland is not a theological academy if you want serious answers you know where to research - We dont have to answer your questions - You are ignorant of theology - You are resourceful enough to research and find the proper answers - You are not sincere in your inquiry I hope you realize that this is exactly all you have done on this thread. Whereas, flipping the script again, the proper thing for the adherent of the religious doctrine you queried to do, would simply be to provide a proper explanation for why it is sound. Of course, if he is not so inclined, he should simply walk past and keep silent. |

Kutunban: No amount of loneliness or poor mental health can justify this level of depravity. Mental health issues actually mitigate alot of criminal responsibility everywhere in the world. If someone did this to a child or woman, the system would respond very differently, so why should animals be treated as less? Are you equating children and women to ponies? |
Christianity Etc › Re: Inexplicable Instincts by DeepSight(op): 12:21pm On Jul 07, 2025 |
triplechoice: I disagree with this. Intelligent design isn't wishful thinking as you think. The way I see it, it's an explanation put forward by those who can't provide rational explanation for how nearly everything in the universe seem to be working in perfect order. They know it by intuition but can't explain it rationally.
What intelligent designer's are saying is that random chance couldn't have been the cause. Maybe something, another form of energy yet unseen working at the background to set the blueprint for how everything should evolve in perfect order. This unknown something, energy, shouldn't be mistaken for an invisible deity in an invisible plane needing our worship.
The ancients ,who founded some of the world's major religion , made use of stories to encode or hide certain truth about our world These truths were perceived intuitively during their time.
Some of the truth they discovered still find relevance till this day. But when you focus on my stories or whether religious god's exist , you also miss it just like nowadays religious people.
For instance, modern science says everything contains energy while the ancients personified it by saying God is in all things. Energy is not created nor destroyed. God is also not created nor destroyed.
So, the same truth as before but expressed differently by both religion and science. Lucid and very well said. |

I don't think it's an unfounded claim to say that something cannot come from nothing. Your querying that in particular is what makes me think any discussion will be futile. As I said, unless you provide a strong reason for that query. |

And the President who deploys starvation to kill thousands of Nigerians and deploys inflation to deny medical care to the people thereby also killing them is the one who cares about lives right? |
Christianity Etc › Re: Inexplicable Instincts by DeepSight(op): 6:17pm On Jul 06, 2025 |
Everyday247: What are the things that transcends physics? And how did you know about these things that transcends physics?
How did you know that something cannot come from nothing? how did you know that something can only come from something? What about the concept of eternity? Doesn't it violate this claim? how did you know that nothingness does not exist? How did you know something always existed? When you say "infer", what method are we using to infer? I hope it's not armchair speculation?
We haven't inferred anything yet, this is a logical leap.
Does eternal time exist? How did you discover eternal time? Does infinite space exist? How did you know about the existence of infinite space?
What are those things complex things?
Also this is essentially the god of gaps argument. There are things that you don't currently understand about the universe, instead of doing more research to find out how they work, you just throw your hands up and say "it must be intelligent designers". it's funny how you never considered how very complex intelligent designers came about.
The concept of intelligent design contradicts itself. It's States that the world is too complex to exist naturally, and then invokes intelligent designers who themselves are also too complex to exist naturally.
So what you're saying is that because you don't understand how brains evolved, therefore god?
That sounds like the god of gaps argument.
We are already discussing this on another quote. The nature of your your queries on every line is such that I may have to pass. Particularly the fact that you query why one says something cannot come from nothing leads me to believe that engaging you might be frustrating and pointless. Unless you can provide a strong reason for such a query I will have to leave it at this. I however thank you for your time. Good evening. |

MaxInDHouse: Please where is the highlighted written in God's word? 
Well God never claimed to be omniscient this are His own words:
“The outcry against Sodʹom and Go·morʹrah is indeed great, and their sin is very heavy. I will go down to see whether they are acting according to the outcry that has reached me. And if not, I can get to know it.” Genesis 18:20-21
“Do not harm the boy, and do not do anything at all to him, for now I do know that you are God-fearing because you have not withheld your son, your only one, from me.” Genesis 22:12
You can read these in any version of your choice.
Please is the God speaking in those verses OMNISCIENT as you people often claim?  Let me rephrase it. How can a perfect God take actions which he then comes to regret. |
