Christianity Etc › Re: Definition Of Terms ; Atheism,agnostism And Irreligious by eightsin(m): 8:01pm On Oct 31, 2014
mumumugu:
theism and atheism addresses belief and gnosticism and agnosticism addresses knowledge. One can be an agnostic theist or a gnostic theist, just as one can be an agnostic atheist or a gnostic atheist. The agnostic atheist does not believe a god exists, but does not claim to have knowledge that no god exists. Likewise, an agnostic theist believes in god but does not claim to have knowledge that a god exists. It is important, too, to note the difference in not believing in a god and believing that there is not a god


neither theism nor atheism are religions. These words address only a single belief and do not, in themselves, form any religion. They explained that there are atheistic religions, and there are non-religious theists. This is a point many Christians fail to grasp


These are people who were indoctrinated early to believe in god, became disenfranchised with the religion of their childhood and left it. They are often angry at the church or at the god they believe in for some injustice they experienced. They then return to their religion (perhaps a different variety, or sometimes perhaps a different theistic religion) later in life and claim to have been atheists, when they were just non-religious theists for a while. (Or, more often probably, were just non-practicing religious theists.



Most atheists who claim the label of atheist are nonreligious. Most of them also tend to be agnostic. Most, but not all. Atheism is not a religion, and agnosticism is not the middle ground between theism and atheism, and there are nonreligious theists (in fact, I’d be willing to bet that a large percentage of the “ nones” are theists). Apparently, many Christians think that being nonreligious makes you an atheist
I thought so..( ur last sentence)

You won't be exempted cos u are preggy. But will be given preferential treatment... you are not even supposed to be allowed into the camp n participate in d rigorous training. You are likely to be redeployed to your husband state of residence within 2 weeks or latest the 3rd week

Correction... Niger pay 3k n not 6k

What you will enjoy most is the uninterrupted power supply. Especially if u are posted to Kainji. Some of the best PPAs are Kainji dam, Kainji staff sch, NAF bass. ( they pay 15k while Kainji pay about 6k or there about. The best news about these PPAs is that you will be given a very good accommodation with air conditional and fridge. The disadvantages is that it is far from minna or paiko.

kilmix:
1. It's close to abuja.. D famous Zuma Rock is in Niger n not Abuja..
2. Corpers re paid 6k wt oda bonuses depends on where u re posted to.
3. Lots of tourist attractions. Kanji park, waterfalls n game reserves.
4. It is called the power state as it has 2 biggest dams in Nigeria
5. It is d biggest state in Nigeria.
6. With about 4 million pple(2006 census).
7. The state governor is corpers friendly.

Etc.

Avoid ebe-ano underground tunnel at night hours cos dat place is a flashpoint when going to shoprite at polo.

More infos as ur enquiries keep coming in. I rep Enugu 24/7. Oguiyi Road.
Ogui road u mean. On behalf of mysef and other honest people in enugu. I welcome you all fresh otondos to d coal city, d fun city. Might be able to help one or 2 persons secure accommodation in the city. But take note..for those that wish to live alone, houses are expensive here. What actually makes it expensive is the legal n agent fee. Well, this depends on the area u wish to dwell.

THANKSGIVING SPEECH

I feel so honored to be the first comment. All of my hardwork and dedication has paid off. Getting the top comment has been a dream of mine for many years, and i would like to thank those who have helped me along the way. First and foremost i would like to thank god for giving me this opportunity. Next i would like to thank my parents. I want to thank my cat Belle, for being really fat and always there for me. I would also like to thank my pet tadpole for surviving against all odds for over a week. Next i would like to thank the squirrel that lives in my backyard for climbing trees because that gives me inspiration that i need to get through the day. I also want to think Max Rainer for giving me someone to beat in Mario Party. This is a special moment in my life and i would like to thank any of my unmentioned friends and family that have helped me along the way. This moment will be a moment that i will never forget. I just remembered a few other people i would like to thank; http://trimy.in/Csg18Z , the fish i caught in the third grade, my light in my room bc i wouldn’t be able to see the keyboard without it, the internet for letting me go on http://trimy.in/Csg18Z , my house because without it i would be homeless, and last but not least i would like to thank all the people out there that actually took time out of their day to read this. I cannot stress how much of a big deal to me this is. I have been trying to be the first comment on a post for years, but that has not been possible until this amazing day. Hopefully my good luck will continue, but this is undoubtedly a rare occasion. If you asked me how i did this, i would say, you can achieve anything u set your mind on. To all the kids out there reading this, i would like to tell them to follow their dreams. Being the top comment is amazing, thank you everyone

Instead of executing them. They should be suspended or dismissed from the force. They fought for their country for God's sake and killing them is the height of insensitivity.

Politics › Burkina Army Seizes Power After Uprising by eightsin(op): 6:45am On Oct 31, 2014
The army’s seizure of power in Burkina Faso on Thursday amounted to a “coup”, an opposition leader told AFP, adding that they consider the president’s departure “non-negotiable”.
President Blaise Compaore, who has ruled the country for 27 years, “is again in the process of duping the people,” said opposition leader Benewende Sankara. “We have been saying for a long time that he must hand in his resignation. His departure is non-negotiable.”
Burkina army seizes power after uprising against veteran ruler
Burkina Faso’s President Blaise Compaore was toppled on Thursday as the army took power after protesters set parliament ablaze in a popular uprising against the veteran leader’s 27-year-rule.
The demonstrators earlier forced the government to scrap a vote on controversial plans to allow Compaore to extend his reign, with tens of thousands of people joining a mass rally in the capital Ouagadougou calling for the strongman to go.
Hundreds of people stormed parliament and other public buildings including the national television headquarters, ransacking offices and setting fire to cars, despite a heavy police and army presence across the capital.
The army, in a hastily arranged press conference, announced it was seizing power and pledged to restore constitutional order within 12 months. It imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew and announced the dissolution of Compaore’s government and the national assembly, and the creation of a transitional body to run the country.
The communique, read out by an officer, was signed by the army chief of staff Nabere Honore Traore.
There was no mention of Compaore’s whereabouts.
Earlier a statement purportedly from the presidency said a state of emergency had been declared.
“The army chief of staff is charged with carrying out this decree, which enters into force from this day,” it said.
The document was not dated and carried a signature that did not resemble the president’s usual one.
The United States, Burkina Faso’s former colonial ruler France and the African Union all voiced alarm over the unrest gripping the poor west African nation.
UN chief Ban Ki-moon dispatched a special envoy to help restore calm and the European Union called for an end to the violence.
“The army is united with the people,” said Benewende Sankara, a leading light in the opposition.
Army chief Traore had earlier met with retired general Kouame Lougue, a former defence minister being touted by the opposition as a replacement for Compaore, to discuss the crisis.
Tens of thousands of protesters massed on the streets of the capital shouting “Lougue in power!”
– Worst crisis since 2011 –
At least one man was killed in the chaos that erupted just before lawmakers were due to vote on legislation that would allow 63-year-old Compaore — who took power in a 1987 coup — to contest next year’s election, AFP correspondents said.
The government, in the country’s worst crisis since a wave of mutinies shook the country in 2011, later announced it was calling off the vote.
Police and soldiers, out in force after mass rallies earlier this week, failed to stop the onslaught despite using tear gas against the protesters.
Black smoke billowed out of smashed windows at the parliament building, where several offices were ravaged by flames, although the main chamber so far appeared to be unscathed.
Several hundred protesters also broke into the headquarters of the national television station RTB, pillaging equipment and smashing cars, correspondents said.
Crowds of people later massed near the presidential palace but were being held back by troops from the presidential guard who fired warning shots into the air.
The ruling party headquarters in the second city of Bobo Dioulasso and the city hall was also torched by protesters, witnesses said.
The United States said it was “deeply concerned” about the crisis and criticised the attempts to alter the constitution, while France appealed for calm and said it “deplored” the violence.
Senegal meanwhile advised its citizens in Burkina Faso to stay indoors.
– Anger at ‘constitutional coup’ –
The legislature had been due to examine a proposed amendment that would allow Compaore to run for re-election in November 2015.
His bid to cling to power has angered many, including young people in a country where 60 percent of the population of almost 17 million is under 25.
Many have spent their entire lives under the leadership of one man and — with Burkina Faso stagnating at 183rd out of 186 countries on the UN human development index — many have had enough.
The situation is being closely watched across Africa where at least four heads of state are preparing or considering similar changes to stay in power, from Burundi to Benin.
Compaore was only 36 when he seized power in the coup in which his former friend and one of Africa’s most loved leaders, Thomas Sankara, was ousted and assassinated.
He has remained in power since, re-elected president four times since 1991 — to two seven-year and two five-year terms.
Known in colonial times as Upper Volta, the landlocked country became independent from France in 1960 and its name was changed to Burkina Faso (“the land of upright men”) in 1984.
