Dear Sir Yahweh,

How's it going in the streets of Gold? I hear Platinum has more value, do you plan on redecorating? What about Diamonds? Why did you choose Gold? Well, you're the Omniscient one, what do I know...

I hope you don't get offended and smite me sir but I need to tell you something, first of all, what's up with the Armageddon plan? Is it going down here on Earth? You should know that we now have nukes and machine guns, swords won't do you any good.

Oh, and don't come with horses, we have cars and jets now, spaceships too, but you already know all this, oh thee Omniscient one!

How did you make the Earth have light before creating the sun? Why did you create everything else with words but decided to make man from dust and woman from a rib and we somehow still have the same build material with every other mammal, did you really need to rest with all your Omnipotence after speaking out the entire universe and moulding man, why did it take you 6 days? Oh! Well, you work in mysterious ways...

Do you really watch me bang and jerk off? Really!? I wonder if you keep a straight face when you see Nicki Minaj naked, I know I wouldn't, anyway, I'm just a canal man made in your image and likeness...

Should I really thank you for my food?
What about all those hungry children? Little girls getting raped, babies dying of cancer? Is that part of your good grand plan for mankind? It's not like I'm doubting your Omnibenevolence sir, but you gave me this brain and I can't help but wonder...

Why is your intelligent design so bleeped up, why are my balls dangling between my legs? Why do I have an appendix, what's the purpose of my male nipples? What am I supposed to do with wisdom teeth? Body hair? Tail bone? WTF Sir Yahweh!

You said: "Go into the world, be fruitful, multiply and fill the earth" but we can't sir, you made it 70% water, and forgot to give us gills.

Did Jesus really have to get beat up and nailed on the cross by all those strong Roman dudes? You could have just not put that damn tree in the middle of Eden and save everyone the stress of the New Testament, at least you wouldn't have to make Mary explain how she's got a baby bump while she's a virgin, you wouldn't have had to send Gabriel to come inside her.

Wait a minute! It was you, wasn't it? You are Gabriel, and Raphael and Michael and Jesus too? It's all you Sir, the freaking Trinity! Smooth...

I'm sleepy now, I'll have to write you again sometime, I know you won't reply, I mean, why should you, so almighty, so omni-everything, you've got better things to do, I understand.

Cheers,
Deon

Funaki:
Being influential for good reasons, affecting and imparting lives. Nelson Mandela, Isaac Newton, Martin Luther King Jr, Albert Einstein etc. These are the very popular ones, there are many people like these in their own capacities.

What's a meaningful life to you?

Right, the rest of the world's population have meaningless lives because they are not influential or affect other people's life? Do you see the problem in that?

I find my meaning in life from every conversation, like this one, every question I get an answer to, every meal I eat and every second I live through. Life is meaningful to me because the time I spend will never come back to me.

Shepherd00:
All knowing. How does God knowing that Adam will sin absolve him from the choice he took?

Why did he aid the sin by putting the try in the garden in the first place when he already knew the outcome.

If you know everything and created everything and rule over everything, every outcome is really part of your grand design, your plan and will.

Is that a difficult thing to grasp?

Shepherd00:
If you know all things but lack the power to act on what you know, what will you do?

Knowing everything is somehow different from knowing how everything can be done in your opinion?

What's the limits of omniscience?

Funaki:
Finding solution to pain and suffering isn't what makes life meaningful. That's surviving, even an insane person has some sense of survival, that doesn't make his/her life meaningful.

Two scenarios, I had a childhood neighbor, she was lively and loved by people in the neighborhood. She later became sick with cancer and died. But before she died, her family suffered, they spent all their money, she even died at home, they have given up hope and there was no money again after visiting a lot of places. Do you call that a meaningful life?

Another, a guy working in Port Harcourt, with his happy family. The guy got sick, he normally faints or something like that. So he couldn't continue working again because of his health, so he had to return to the village to become secondary school maths teacher. I won't call that a meaningful life .

What's a meaningful life? Give me the best idea of a meaningful life that you can come up with

CoolUsername:
Implying that life is inherently meaningful.

Life is meaningless or meaningful depending on how you look at it, you find your own purpose which is different from what everyone thinks their purpose is

Funaki:
so pain and sickness make life meaningful?

Yes. Can you find a single human need that's not solution to pain and suffering and sickness?

Shepherd00:
Do one need to be Omniscient to do the 'Seemingly' impossible?

If you knew everything, what's impossible?

Funaki:
Balls, really? .

I'll eradicate pain and sickness. I hate seeing people in pain and suffering from bad health, it's demoralizing. I mean correct sickness o

If there are no pain and sickness, will humans have any needs? Won't life be meaningless at that point?

Shepherd00:
In your Opinion man didn't choose death because the Omniscient knew that he'd choose death?

What does it mean to be omniscient?

greatnaija01:
I would not change anything.....

Why not, is the world perfect as it is?

thesicilian:
Death was optional from the beginning, it was man himself who chose death.

I hope this is not a backdoor atheist thread.

Did man choose death? An Omniscient being would know what will happen, death was part of his design.

You didn't even answer the question

Most religion believe the world was designed by an omniscient, omnipotent, omnibenevolent being. Could he had done better? What would you do different if you were omniscient?

I for one would put the balls on the inside, and death would be optional.

felixomor:
Why?
Please explain.

Read your post... What does that even mean "Concept of a circle"?

Akinrogun:
The above shows you are absolutely clueless and bereft of ideas about the creation and Creator of the universe. Hence you have decided in your deluded mind to ramble and vituperate in quick sands.

With regards to the question, why is an 'omnipotent and omniscient God' interested in a minuscule entity called man.....here's the answer : the 'man' is created in the image of the omnipotent and omniscient God. Man is His vicegerent on earth, more reason why man holds dominion over all including powerful beasts like lion, elephant, Leviathans, whales, boars, crocodiles etc. More reasons why man explore the cosmos infinitely and all creations stood in awe of man. All this come from the fact that man is imbued with God-like energies.

These facts cannot be gleaned by mind-controlled beings like you....there are far superior knowledge beyond the carnal man.

Be enlightened!....open your eyes to eternal verities.

Selah!

When his initial plan was a clueless man roaming the garden of Eden naked? You are the deluded one and mind controlled by blindly following a religion that is based on a truckload of crap

felixomor:
Somewhere in your mind, throwing a question u couldn't answer means i have not read your post.
Mscheww, SMH
If only i had said, u made sense,
Then u will know i read it ba?.....

I have read your post.
As i said, u r like the petulant little child of that rich father.....
Nothing more....

Your argument is baseless, you are making no points whatsoever.

felixomor:
Using your example of a circle,
What if your concept of limiting a circle to 360 degrees is wrong in the first place?
Will that make you right?

This makes no sense at all.

Hi, everyone.
I made a WordPress plugin that imports MP3 and MP4 media files from any URL into your WordPress upload folder, if you want to test run it I'll send it to your email for free.

Bonus: A password protected external importer that does the same thing, for those who don't want to have a plugin.

NOTE: You can only get either the plugin or the external importer not both.

Good Morning guys, be sure to keep an eye out for the new series on How to create a WordPress Theme from scratch starting tomorrow @ Tutsdose

Have a great day.

Sorry guys, I've been away offline for a while, now I'm back...
Any questions on WordPress Theme Developmnent??

CRAZYMADMAN:
Supposing I want to go into WordPress theme development ( I might), what are the tools/frameworks that're available that one can use so as to reduce the development time and also reduce the codes that needs to be written?

You don't need any framework to develop WordPress themes, get wamp or xampp (I use xampp) get WordPress from wordpress.org find a good text editor (I use sublime text) and develop locally. For starters look into the default themes that comes with WordPress to see how things are set up... check codex.wordpress.org for functions reference

You need to know HTML, CSS and PHP to develop themes for WordPress jQuery to add some cool.

If you're not already a developer already read about which programming language you should learn first and start with

cheers.
