Religion is the opium of the mass. Nonbelievers seem to be better humans than believers.

Lies! God lovers live a very good filled and sweetly rewarding living which makes the whole world hate them.

shaggy007:
Actually I became an atheist after all my prayers were repeatedly unanswered for years.

That was when I was praying to a white man called Jesus (a black man praying to a white man. What a joke.)

Then I came across our African traditional religion and saw that there is actually God.

Everyone should embrace African religion, odinana.

It's the religion of our forefathers that we should not abandon.

Always unanswered wishes!

I found out that I've been fed a lie since infancy. I'm glad I emancipated early.

Only to be a slave of stupid people.

Lukuluku69:
Dumbo, rest.

Stupido of all things to pursue in the world, it is last word you pursue! Your stupidity is very entertaining!

Lukuluku69:
Dumbo, you will be at rest the moment you stop attacking. Your keypad/keyboard. That is when you are at rest.

Dumbo, capiche?

Studio, i am at rest but I capiche, you need to be the thing that speaks the last.

Lukuluku69:
Dumbo, then stop attacking you Keypad/Keyboard

Stupido, now you have reduced yourself to a keypad/keyboard. Okay Stupid keypad/keyboard if you stop mentioning me then I would stop replying you.

Lukuluku69:
Dumbo, rest.

Stupido, I am always at rest.

Mr. Sane, I agree I am mad because I refuse to accept the junk stuffed down your throats... I'm sorry

Madmen have been known to call Jollof rice and chicken junk food, that is why they are mad in the first place.

Lukuluku69:
Ode Agba, I posted that to rubbish your quotes. Seems comprehension is an issue with you too?

Fool, the words of a fool always destroys them

Carcholce:
Be calming down please. No need to engage in banter.

He is the one unreasonably hassling me because i bursted wide his stupid wicked and untrue accusation against Paul and he could not provide any reasonable counter.

So, I have become his enemy!

Lukuluku69:
Which truth can come from a confirmed Dumbo?

Truth come only from God. Men are Liars no be so your "Apostle" Paul talk?

See, Foolish man, thank you for telling the world that you are a liar. Stupid!

HazardAwka:
[16] how much less one who is abominable and corrupt, a man who drinks injustice like water!

If God puts no trust in his holy ones and even the heaven is not pure to him, does it mean that no matter what, no human can be holy in God's eyes?

You did see verse 16 are men ever just, beyond abominations and incorruptible?

Lukuluku69:
Dumboinho, step back and re-read the tripe you have been dropping on this Thread and others replies to your tripe.

You type as if you have swallowed a typewriter.

Stupido, in line with your "you don't know anything" you never heard

"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident." Arthur S.

"The truth will set you free, but first it will make you miserable."

James A. Garfield

Wilgrea7:
While I won't exactly consider myself an atheist, I'm the farthest thing from religious, so I guess that counts.

My de-conversion story is a pretty long one. But to sum it all up, I became very inquisitive, and started to ask a lot of questions.

Those questions led to more questions, and eventually, after taking my time to learn more about religion, and about the universe, and actually taking an objective look at things, I realized there was not a lot of credible evidence for the beliefs which I previously held.

Asking endless questions tends to that most especially in your quest at endless questions, you fall into the depths of stupidity where none can pull you out from.

And then it is from that place of stupidity that you people speak from.

ajekpaks:
Interesting, you were standing at ring road observing a mad man? To the extent of catching his words verbatim?

Is Jehova not wonderful?

See, mad and stupid at the same time else you would have known that ring road is a very busy area such that one may not miss what a madman says as one passes by.

Lukuluku69:
Wise people? Lol. Patronize your sorry self. That is your business. And it is differs not "divers" Mr. Dumboinho

Stupido, your stupidity is yours to keep and use for yourself, I am not affected by it save for the fact that you are now my todays example of "don't be stupid like stupido, the idol that looks but does not see."

Carcholce:
This means even as the father was feasting and rejoicing that his son had come back to him, In his heart, the other son is now the most loved. Is this right?

Which father will not greatly love a son who stayed by his side most especially when a stupid son departs?

The feasting is a public humiliation of the stupid boy and a purging of the shame and embarrassment the boy wickedly poured on the father.

Lukuluku69:
Stupid people recognize stupid stuff I guess.

Wise people recognise stupid people and their divers stupidities to avoid entering them.

Carcholce:
Does this mean a returning believer had already broken a law that cannot be completely forgiven?

Perhaps the act of living a sinful life comes with a prize that robs us of our fathers glory!

Are you saying the glory that was lost cannot be restored, which puts us far behind those that never lost it!

Sorry if I’m not making sense but I’m trying to. I hope you understand.

Still using believer things to see. The parable of the seeds was without doubt for believers.

Follow The Law and Nature. If you had told your father to give you your "severance package" and he grants it, do you still have any rights remaining from him?

Do you think he would ever restore it to you?

If he is a just father, would he not respect the rights of your other brother, who by your departure now has increased and double work to do for his father?

topcatking:
To every man, his (version of ) truth.

There is no version of Truth, only Truth.

immaculatesense:
Stop the rigmarole that Dtruthspeaker may want to drag u into... nobody can fully explain a parable that was not explained by the speaker himself...

Yet we play with idioms and riddles but when it comes to God's own, suddenly you become lazy minded. Anyway, it is your loss.

Lukuluku69:
Gibberish as usual.

Exactly what stupid people say when they see that they are stupid.

RoyalDiadems:
7. The danger of ignorance. The elder son owned everything but he never knew.

Dtruthspeaker, please add yours for the edification of the brethren.

You are 80% accurate but the 20% shortage is coming from the fact that you people never view things from the angle of Law.

For instance, I would disagree with no 7 because The Law says "a person can not take that which does not belong to him unless and until The Owner of the property gives it to him".

Therefore, people are not aware of the Rule of Law (which Christ was teaching but people do not listen) and the Law Play interaction between all the parties involved.

And this is where I hate those pastors who are lawyers (even if they are legallers not lawyers) who never teach what the parable means at Law.

And this is where Paul, rules.

For under Law
1) the boy cashed All Of His Rights of childship, leaving nothing behind. Therefore, he has disfathered himself.

2) having disfathered himself, therefore the father owes him no further obligation, even if his father acquires further and further wealth.

3) having disfathered himself, it means that the father does not have a right to interfere in the boys welfare, even if the boy is in desparate need, especially as the boy separated and went to a foreign land.

4)Among other Law full consequences which I am skipping to this part, the boy was wise to have returned to his Former father's domain, where the former father always has a right to act. Which is where you see how greatly good the former father is, because, he has a right to send away the stranger from his domain or to exercise his right in favour of the stranger

And by the son's return, it proves that the father was much much better than the son who thought that he was wiser or as wise as his father, so he contested against his former father and now he has lost.

And so, as you can see, there are many consequences at Law eg the returning son is no different from the other strangers working on his former father's property.

By the affidavit of the father, the other son owns everything his father owns, therefore, like the other strangers, the boy is at his brother's grace and that is what the brother knew which is why he went silent after the father spoke with him.

They were both aware of the Lawful consequences.

Carcholce:
1. Can you explain what is the green pasture?
2. Still waters!! Is this talking about the human mind where man bends to the whims of good and evil?

Simple na! Which land would you take your sheeps to? Is it the desert? Or the bush?

And what water body would you lead them to? Is it the beach? Or Lagos lagoon?

Carcholce:
Bros talk Na

Gist is what went down please.

It is for your good that I do not reveal them.

"They are a Life TO THOSE THAT FIND THEM" Proverbs 4:22.

ajekpaks:
It's mostly made up...

In the beginning Man created God...

See, Proof of madness! Exactly what that mad man in ring road said "in the beginning the phone made the man..."

ajekpaks:
After I read the Bible from genesis to revelation twice...

I Discovered what a load of hokus pokus

That is how the Bible is to mad people;

sundaygray:
Omo i observed the life, learned different religions sat down and thought about life in general and also, never had a spiritual encounter i have spent money, a lot of money for a spiritual encounter but no level baba.The lack of evidence just make me chill. Unless God appears and shows himself to me, no level

Mods push this to front page. @Lalasticlala @sean

Simon the sorcerer wished the same and was even ready to buy it. But, no be so!

Because they thought that God was their personal Wishmaster!

So when He did not listen to them, they got angry and revenged saying "since you did not answer me, I will never answer you again. In fact I won't talk to you again. And I am sure that if I don't talk to you it would pain you".

So, they are just people who have seen that God has been them away.

Thus, this is them trying to revenge against God by saying all types of rubbish.

Lukuluku69:
Jealous of what? Jealous of those that Christ will reject at the Seat of Judgement?

See, change of post!

Carcholce:
Are there truly believers and non believers?

The parable about believers and all was given and it is not this one

Lukuluku69:
Simply put: Repentance is always open. So not at anytime think anyone is lost. Leave that to God and also be humble and not think yourself better than anyone spiritually.

Right and Wrong!

Right, because the father welcomed him back but wrong because you did not see what went down.
