[quote author=PAGAN 9JA]oh my Gods! you didn't know the meaning of druid huh

are you a christian btw?[/quote]I recently just found out about a month ago when I accidently read an article about the subject.

I don't know if I would say I qualify as a christian. I'm from a Christian background though. I think I'm just neutral with the whole religion thing at the moment.

[quote author=PAGAN 9JA]Wrong. THose were the period of the Kingdoms. its not called dark ages. Those were just the times. it was the way the whole world was running back then,There is nothing wrong with wearing leaves (atleast back then or even now in villages), as our climate is very hot and we all were not wearing leaves, exactly. depends on the ethnicity, location, etc. Hunting wild animals/subsistence hunting is a good clean way of life.I don't see anything wrong here.

I used the term dark ages not as a derogative term relating to the way Africa was back then but as a way to compare the slow developmental process we were undergoing back then.

If you feel there's nothing wrong wearing leaves, I think you need to think again. I suspect you're fully claded there, May I ask why? Why don't you wear leaves??

Hunting wild animals was a good way to live and a good way for a man back then to sustain his family but what if the population growth of Africans in respect to the wild animals was in serious low. Don't you think that would be a medium of extinction to those animals?

We learnt language already from our ancestors. And we had farming tools. My people , the Hausa are originally farmers. we knew how to make ploughs, hoes, etc. We even have a ritual centred around these farming implements.
THe scientifically learned and we all know that jesus was not the son of a god. A spiritual force cannot have a physical human child. it is against the laws of nature. and this son of god has not done anything to this world. instead his doctrines have made this world worse.as for hope. he has created this scenario were everyone thinks they are going to land in hellfire. this sense of hopelessness has furthered created a situation whereby criminals who have murdered or comitted "sins" wont hesistate to do moreso again, since they know they are already doomed to hell.or they may just commit a million crimes and then ask forgiveness from the "all merciful" jesus.[/quote]

You're abosolutely right about the fact that we already had our own form of communication and I am not disputing the fact that our ancestors used primitive tools for farming. Now my question to you is? If the white man hadn't visited Africa, do you think we would have gotten where we are today? Do you think we would have evolved into the way we are now? Do you think we would have measured intellectually to our western counterparts if they hadn't visited us long time ago and brought with them some knowledge. My anwers to that question is no. Call me a white worshipping african and whatever derogative name you might come up with but deep down inside, you know I'm right

Even before the advent of this modern day religion (Christianity and Islam [The two most contradictory religions]). We were ones pagans. The greeks had so many gods they were worshipping but people back then still had reasons to kill. Some kill to occupy new teritory, some kill others with contradictory believes to their gods, some kill just for the fun of it and crime was modestly high. Same with the romans and same with Africa too.

Since the beginning of time, man has alway been an animal, killing for no reason whatsoever and blaming it on a cause. It's in our blood, we were created that way but a religion saw a way to put man on a leash, to reduce that desire to kill and commit attrocities and they made up that part about everlasting burning pit and for a while, it worked. I might be wrong with this thesis though.

So my point is man has the tendency to wreck havoc and destroy so the few wise amongst us created religion (or was inspired by GOD) to keep us on a leash though some evil minded individuals and power mongrels saw a way to use religion as their personal tool for destruction too and obtain power. We are all one regardless of our skin colour and our differences. The only way mankind would ever come to peace is if we start accepting others differences and look beyond our skin colours.

Mr Troll: I'm in tears brethren

Click here and be educated. sheeple!

I'm not a religious zealot, I'm more like a free thinker. I do believe of a super-intelligent being but I am not sure where he truly exist in one form of religion or another.

Africa was living in the dark ages but the westerners invaded us and gave us enlightenment though some greedy ones saw how naive we were and took advantage of us. If they hadn't had visited Africa, we would still be wearing leaves to cover our nake-dness and hunting wild animals as food like savages so I give them kudos for that.

I told you to give me the names of Africans who has brought enlightenment to the continent Africa, and all you had to come up with was list of popular Africans. Did Nelson Mandella teach us how to read of write or did Didier Drogba help us create simple farming tools.

The question of who Jesus was is something I have learnt not to tamper with or any religious matter whatsoever. No one is absolutely certain if he was made up and just gargautan lie or if he truly existed and if he is the son of GOD but one thing I know, Christianity or any other religion has given people the means to Hope. Man without hope is nothing.

So stop asking yourself what this palenstine got to do with Africa but try to look for a solution to better the lives of those around you or simply just start from yourself.

Story sounds far-fetched.

The spoiler alert was the part where she laid emphasis on "BlackBerry Kingdom"

Also, another part that got me cracking and confirmed my suspicion that this story was a farse was the headgear and make-up part.

This is the exact reason why I don't go to church, too much lies, too much false prophesies, deliverance, too many fake prophets all in the name of winning more soul and making more money.

This is just a cheap way to get publicity..

What were their contributions to the development of Africa?

It's no surprise that something of this nature was bound to happen. I'm not sure what these extremist are fighting for but from the sight of things, I can only say they've killed any chance they have for redemption from the Nigerian government.

These so called radical islamic extremist group stooping so low to massacre unharmed innocent children is the lowest of them all. Isn't it hyprocrisy they're trying to destroy anything western related when they themselves use weapons of mass destructions for their illicit acts.

I don't want to be a religious bigot but nothing good comes from religion extremist whatever form. Why can't we live and let others live. What can you expect from a religion whose mentor and messiah was a warlord and commandeered the killing of "infidels" in his own time.

Mr. President needs to stand up and take serious action against these insurgence whose value to human life means nothing.

I'm praying for this country Nigeria for our unity but everyday, I see no hope. I think Mr. President is actually letting all these happen for political reasons. Maybe his agenda is the division of nation Nigeria come 2015 and with the way things are happening, it's a possibility.

Mr. President is handling this menace the wrong way. Cut the head of the body and watch the rest wither. I think he should create an intelligence organization or something or a division of the J.T.F to fish out those who are sponsoring these barbarians. Anything apart from that is just waste of time and public funds. The top syndicates of this islamic extremist should be captured and watch the foot soldiers run from safety.

Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win” ― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

Mr. President is handling this menace the wrong way!

Politics › Re: No Going Back On Arms For Vigilance Groups – Zamfara by druid06(m): 11:26am On Jul 06, 2013*

I thought the fight against this radical Islamic also known a Boko-Haram was the job of the federal government alone to handle with the help of the Civilian J.T.F as lookout and sweepers.

I don't understand why the executive governor of a state would want to arm civilians all in the diguise of protecting themselves.

I thought the main objective of the civilian J.T.F was just for reconnaissance missions only and the fighting was left for the J.T.f?

I am very suspicious of the recent turn of things and the arming of the civilian J.T.F. I suspect there's a catch to all these knowing the 2015 election is just at the corner.

I think Mr. President needs to stand on his feet and make an arbituary decision regarding this matter. I don't know much about Nigerian politics and the Nigerian consitutiion but I know when something's not right and when something smells fishy. Isn't it treason when a state government arm it's citizen for no good reason? I don't even think he has the right since the state governon is not the commander in chief of the armed forces..

All things said, I think this governor is preparing for war come 2015 if the election doesn't go their way. I hope Mr. President is not too stupid to see this.

plaetton: Well , my friend, let say this, and please commit it to memory:
Science is mainly about asking questions. Science has never ever claimed to have all the answers, no no no.
Science starts from a position of unknowing and gradually builds up a body of knowledge that is useful to everyone. Such knowledge are subject to review and rejection when superior or more advanced knowledge emerges through the same process.

Everything we know today about the universe were gained incrementally over time, through a thorough process that weighs, tests and vets all new knowledge.
Creationism on the other hand relies on no reasonable level of proof, evidence, mathematical or scientific deduction, except for the fables, myths and legend of stone age people who had zero knowledge of atoms, the basic building block matter, and who barely understood the cause of disease.

Where would a reasonable person like you cast his lot, with religion, or with science?.

What if at the last day religion was right and science was wrong after all the centuries of mathematic and scientific evaluations?

Afam4eva: The obvious answer to this question will be security. But isn't there a way around it such that our residential houses will be open just like the Americans do theirs. I think fences take away the beauty that a house is supposed to add to the environment and it also makes sure that there's no uniformity. Every compound is like a country on it's own. Why can't we borrow a leaf from the way American suburbs look like.

plaetton: Mr Troll,
Undirected and infinite series of random chance events have led you from your date of birth to this very thread on this very forum this very day.
That is a fact.
Do you wish to dispute that?

Note that I higlighted the world 'chance' in your statement. It's what I've been trying to say all these while. Creationism believes of an intelligent being with great engineering and architectural skill who created the world and all living organisms to inhabit the earth while science (evolution) says life evolved from a non living thing and the universe was created by chance. Both creationish and evolution don't give a specific and logical answer as to where we really come from and how we got here.

So what the creator of this thread is trying to say, if religion says we were created by an intelligent being why is science being all hypocritical when themselves do not have a definite answer as to how we all got here.

Christianity Etc › Re: The Evolution Of The Useless. by druid06(m): 5:50pm On Jul 03, 2013

plaetton: My friend , I think you guys misunderstand what pure chance means in the context of evolution. No one says that the universe, the galaxies, stars and planets merged overnight by pure chance.
I am very sure that is what you guys have in mind when you make your arguments.

Everything in the universe is in motion, rapid motion for that matter. That is a fact.
When an infinite number of particles of condensed energy are in rapid motion, collisions occur, chance collisions that
inevitably lead to the formation of more complex particles.

When this process continues for an infinite period of time, say billions of years, complex formations emerge , and the process continues, this time, from a higher level of complexity and sophistication.

This is how galaxies, stars, planets, inorganic and organic molecules, proto-life cells and the simplest micro-biotic life emerged.
It is Physics, it is chemistry, it is biology.
It makes sense both mathematically and experimentally.

Creationism or intelligent design, on the other hand, rests on nothing except the blind belief in them.

Everything you just mentioned still boils down to the part to support my thesis where I said evolution is based on pure chance.

Natural selection is the opposite of chance

In a layman's term, kindly explain evolution to me if it's not pure chance.

In the big bang theory in layman's term, scientist claim the universe just exploded into being and all the the planets, galaxies, milky waves were created from that single explosion. Kindly tell me otherwise if that's not chance..

So then what's the difference between creationism and evolution?
