Valentinooo: thanks for that. but can u pls explain the use of the verb DO as regard to asking question. e.g what do/did u eat this morning? I want to know when to use do/did/does when it comes to asking question

Do/Does they are simple present tense and simple present tense means something is true in the past, true in the present, and will be true in the future. Do is used with the subject I, You, They, We i.e I do go to school everyday, They do always eat rice on friday in these examples you will realise that both statement will be true on each cases, though using 'Do' here is optional(you can remove the 'do' and your statement will still look the same).

Does in the other hand is also a simple present tense but is being used with the subject She, He, It which is to add 'es' to Do, i.e Does your dog bite? Does sun rises from west and sets in east?

Why DID is just a simple past tense. Simple Past tense means something happened overtime i.e I did my homework 5mins ago.
Did/Do you eat this moring? In this case you want to know maybe the action is yet to be performed or the action is already performed so use 'Did'. Accurately, you can use present perfect progressive i.e Have you eaten this moring?

Note:- Present(Pr), Past(Pa), Progressive(G), simple(S), Future(F), Tense(T), and Perfect(Pf).
E.g Future Perfect Progressive is written FPfG.

Verbs tenses can be divided into three: Present, Past & Future. Each one can also sub-divided into four.

Present: SPrT, PrGT, PrPfT, and PrPfG.

Past: SPaT, PaGT, PaPfT, and PaPfG

Future: SFT, FGT, FPfT, and FPfG.

1. How do I make SPrT?
If the subject is I, You, We or They-use simple form of verbs (simple form of verbs is just the present tense of verb) i.e I go to bed at 10:00, They go to bed at 10:00.
If the subject is She, He or It-add 's' or 'es' to the verb i.e He goes to bed at 10:00, she usually walks to the store.

2. How do I make PrGT?
If the subject is I-use Am. He, She, It-use Is. We, They, You-use Are. +verb-ing. E.g we are studing grammar, Mary is learning to drive.

3. How do I make PrPfT?
If the subject is We, I, They, You-use 'Have'. He, She, It-use 'Has'
Has/Have + verb past participle i.e Lionel Mercy has won many football trophies, I have often wondered why Faith is always late.

4. How do I make PrPfG?
Has/Have + Been+ verb-ing i.e I've been cleaning my house since 8:00 this moring, John has been thinking about getting a new job.

5. How do I make SPaT?
Verb+ed or irregular past form(if the verb is irregular) i.e Ralph called his mother to wich her happy birthday, I studied french in college, irregular verb i.e Yesterday I cut my finger while I was opening a can of malt.

6. How do I make PaGT?
If the subject is I, It, He, She-use Was/ You, We, They-use Were.
Was/Were +verb-ing i.e were you sleeping when I called? I was studing all night for that history test.

7. How do I make PaPfT?
Had+verb past participle i.e When I got home, Seun had finished his homework, Beety loved Alabar soup because she had grown up there.

8. How do I make PaPfG?
Had+been+verb-ing i.e When Tope finally arrived, Tolu had been waiting for 20 minutes, I was exhausted, I had been walking for the past 2hours.

9. How do I make SFT?
Can be made two ways: a) with will, b) with be going to.
With will:- will+simple form of verb i.e John will be here in a second or two.
With be going to:- if the subject is I-use 'Am', He, she-use 'is', they, you, we-use'Are' i.e John is going to be here in a secong or two, Seun is going to do his homework after he eats dinner.

10. How do I make FGT?
Will/be going to+be+verb-ing i.e Ricky will be working at 3:00 tomorrow afternoon, I leave for Lagos on Sunday, and on Monday I'm going to be body surfing at cyprus.

11. How do I make FPfT?

12. How do I make FPfG?
Will have+been+verb-ing i.e How long will Joy have been workin in the office when she retires?, I hope that wmen I get home tonight, my son will have been doing
his homework.

ooman: There is nothing like "hardcore" atheism. Atheism is simply the believe in no God and the use of reasonable explanation for nature. You cant get any deeper in atheism, the deepest you can get is to say that no god exist.
When any atheist stops being reasonable and think that god exist, then he has simply moved from disbelief to belief and has simply rejected logic and became newly insane.

However, there are hardcore worshipers. The deeper you get in god depends on how much you allow your brain to hallucinate. If you meditate long enough to hallucinate visions and become insane enough to speak complete gibberish in the name of speaking in tongues, then you are a hardcore xtian and its becomes wonderful when such people get free from their psychedelia and choose nature-atheism, because they had been healed from their delusions.

The man didn't say God does not exist if you read it with utmost mind. But because devil has looked for a way to snatch his soul he begins to see God as a wicked being. If God doesn't exist somebody like me won't say anything about Him. Science is real but claiming there is no God is wrong. By God's grace I have something to invent to the whole world soon but does that mean I must claim that God doesn't exist NO! Some scientist got it wrong when they are begin to reason abstractly. To the man I pray he will realise where he got it wrong and reconcille himself back to God.

I've created a tread like this before but the real interpretation is this.

"Peper pick race to hit my head"

hope you grab my point?

I'm not haapy at all with all these things that I didn't meet them when it is happening.

1. I blame Mary Mitchell Slessor for stoping the killing of Twins because people that gave me headache most are Twins.

2. Why they stop civil war? They should have allowed it to wipe out some generations before being stoped i.e Obj, IBB, GEJ they are giving Nigerians alot of headache.

3. I blame Lord Lugard for amalgamation. Next year Nigeria will clock 100years of amalgamation and nothing has come out of it rather it has created alot of political, ethnics, and religon crisis. I would have prefered playing Arewa, Oduduwa or Biafra visa lottery to inport tomatoes, onions or crude oil.

Lol... United we stand divided will fall...one Nigeria.

Question: Marring my age mate, Right/Wrong?
A=Right
B=Wrong
C=Both
Answer: C

You've concluded everything yourself. So my dear I'm strongly behind you because I know it won't affect me.

Billyonaire: What I recommend for you were NOT books, the fact that you call them books speaks volume of your cantankerous rebuttal of knowledge in black and white. Please I can not help you here regarding the concept of God and Spirituality. Should you want to know hardcore truth about the universes and how they came to be, create a thread on that, and I will prove beyond reasonable doubts that all is energy and was never created and that the doctrine of God and Devil is yesterday's facts and today's fiction. Religion is the enemy and you Africans are the victims.

The pantheism and the scientology so how will I get information about them if not on books or internet can you see yourself.

Answer the questions that I asked niflheim

Niflheim: When kids were allergic to cow milk in Europe,scientists identified the gene causing the allergy,extracted it,extracted the gene for human milk in a woman,put it inside a pregnant cow,it gave birth to a female which grew up,and VOILA!!!Now cows produce human breast milk!!!........................YET YOU SEE THESE RELIGIOUS GOATS CLAIMING THAT SCIENTISTS WATCH TO MUCH SCI-FI!!!IMAGINE THE INSULT!!!

Let me ask you these questions don't refer site for just answer.

1. How many cells does man brain contain?
2. How many transistors and other component does a processor has?

Even if you don't know the answer just guess

Billyonaire: The Bible is a good book, I have covered the entire Bible from Genesis to Revelation, believe me if you will and disbelieve if it makes you happier. I moved on to other religions, more than 5 or major world's religion, cos I really needed to know what God is or who God is. I am in position to say, I know more than an average follower of a religion. Let's not digress to God factor, what I call, the Infinite Oneness. I recommend, Pantheism and Scientology to you.

@bolded
That is where your problems lies; looking for God up and down of which you can do in your closet.
Recommending books for my brother I have read alot of scientist text books both in hard copy and soft copy. Tell me you only read books not carrying out any experiment yourself that is the problem of nairanland atheist they prove christians wrong yet thay haven't carried out any of their own experiment just believe in what somebody like them says. Which make me know that atheist is base also on faith.

Billyonaire: You need to start reading and stop believing everything our fathers and great grand fathers told you, if our grandfathers told you a story that they were told, I am sure they will be very disappointed in us, if they wake up one day, and seeing advancements and developments in techies, and they ask us updates on whats possible in today's civilization yet we still get stucked in their fairy tales and repeat the same old stories they told us in ignorance. I refuse to believe the folktale. Are you pondering what am pondering ?

I won't because that is how you got your own facts I believe you never performed any work of science in your life. I'm a christian believing in Bible but I didn't just agree with it I did a personal research before I can stand before you that God really exist sir.

Billyonaire: I use the 'creation' context, cos thats the language that you people understand better. Energy can never be created nor destroyed.

So how come our body distroyed after death?

If I begin to spell out scienctist errors about the universe and evolution you will reason well but I'm not arguing with you anyway.

Billyonaire: but my confusion has been, the reason humanity was created with a body that can be perished by virus, bacterium and fungus.

"But you people said matter is neither created nor distroy"

Billyonaire: This has nothing to do with God or Devil, ofcourse, God and Devil are creations of Religion, the reality is different.

saying immortality is not about God, who then can make humans immortal if not God?

God didn't start any religion man started it all base on their wrong ideas of who God really is.

The flint: Whenever you get on naira land think b4 u write... One of the biggest problems the world faces today is population, creating humans is simply 'destructive science'.

'Food for thought man'

Mr thinker, so you mean without increasing in population they can produce humans flesh, bones e.t.c. God have mercy

MsDarkSkin: you have one more time to call me SIR despite seeing MS before DARKSKIN!

I have no answer to your question because I am not interested in how they do it..i am just against the idea of using a human brain and implanting it into a mechanical body which can be controlled.

I'm sorry refering to you as 'sir' but MS can means MicroSoft, Movie Starter, My Studio e.t.c

I thought you are in support of the idea.

MsDarkSkin: RUSSIAN BILLIONAIRE PLANS TO [size=18pt]IMMORTALIZE HUMANS[/size] BY 2045

I know sir but if you rely on their work it will never work. My question for is if scientist knows all the composition form of flesh, bones, blood e.t.c why can they produce new of it instead of immortalize.

Food for thought man

MsDarkSkin: We theists are becoming fewer in number because people want things without actually working for them and being patient. we are here to do a job and we will all "clock out" at the end.

how is living forever going to help me?

death is inevitable...i don't know why people fear it so.

Who says you will live forever? I believe it's going to be 70-30% (70 machine-30human), the robot they produce pack up, generators ceased to work anymore, processors breaks up. So tell me how you will live forever.

Billyonaire: The important thing is to explore ways of harnessing the human mind, and storing same in cyberspace where it can be accessed or even re-borned. If the minds of Tesla and Einstein could only been harnessed and harvested from cyber-servers, then humans would have evolved beyond where we are presently stucked.

Why harnesing? Since they know all the composition of humans flesh, blood, bones e.t.c they should have produced new part by part why machine-types like. No scientist will ever find out the greatest work of God.

Invention of social network it's a great advantage to we christains in a sense that it gives us access to spread the true word of Jesus Christ inwhich our name is derives from and make us not a religion.

1. I will advise you disable your IMAGE display based on some erotic images people usually post.

2. Know the kind of website you will be visting.

3. Stop arguing with fellow humans like you just pass your message and allow God to do his work. In other word stop fighting for God.

4. Please don't create any tread to prove either God exist or not especially with an atheist because it's one of the instructment that the devil is using to wave our mind away from the word of God. Just say whatever you have in mind and close the chapter.

5. Let's always pray for the Holy Spirit to fill us more.

I pray God will continue to help, guide and protect us in Jesus name.

I was told I have been employed in a construction firm but I should come back in two weeks time for an open cheque (I mean to talk on my salary). How much can I demand for or if it is you what will you say?

Nigerians are types of people that rejoice in hardship and proud in poverty. Nobody wants to face reality.

My view anyway!

frosbel: False Sir !!!

I have a brain, God put it in my head for reasoning not for fancy .

See where the problem lies, using ordinary carnal mind to read Bible. Pls once again allow the Holy Spirit to do the work because you can't acheive anything without Him.

alexleo: Noted. Thanks. Let me just say its not a thread for argument but may be to put up one or two things that you think can be of help to us here. Thanks.

That's what I want to emphasize to let them know this thread isn't for arguement stuff rather to call us(christians) back and to know that we can't fight for God.

@frosbel, pls try to involve Holy Spirit whenever you're reading Bible because all those questions you're asking to me is because you don't have the real insight of what the Bible is saying according to the Holy Spirit. For instance when Jesus was tempeted by satan He was tempeted as human not as God. Again when satan said "if thou is the son of God...." it's because jesus presented Himself as a son who came from God e.t.c

Kudos! I have decided that my last arguement with any atheist has come to an end three days ago because I have sense something with the help of Holy Ghost. Most christains today have abandoned the true teaching of Christ following false doctrine or mere religion just because they are not fill with the Holy Spirit.

My major concern is that very soon scientist we proclaim HEAVEN and HELL is real, then what will be the fate of my atheist brother's? And surely hell is very close to us than heaven.

[quote author=money-hungry ]your Religion controls you with two tools: FEAR(hell) AND REWARD(heaven).[/quote]Yes is ought to be feared of because of the eternal suffering. HELL and HEAVEN is real you may not know because of the bad mind you have towards God. Like I always say I'm not a pastor don't think I'm inviting you to my church and I'm not a born against christian(you understand me) I know what is right in Christ with God. My personal encounter with God made me believed that God truly exist.

So you, my friend, needs to put away ur FEAR n THINK with a LOGICAL mind.

Do you always apply this same logical mind with scientist therioes?

i know that verse: "train (brain-wash) a child in d way that he should go n when he is old, he cannot depart from it"
so i agree, it takes alot of courage to depart....

Yes because of people like you.

Think about this:
if he really luvs us why didn't he just put us all in paradise instead of earth?.... afterall, we were all born without sin (Bleep that silly Bible verse talking about "all have sinned".

Yes He did at first place at the garden of eden but human misuse the opportunity.

he knew eve would sin, why put dat apple in eden?

It's just a simple test the way you can test your child, friends e.t.c just to have more trust in them.

why create d devil?

He didn't create devil, He created Moring Star but pride change the name to DEVIL. Everything that happened between God and Moring star(now devil) happening today between father & his children, Boss & junior staff, pastor & memebers, friend to friends, King & servant e.t.c

You all need Jesus for the life to come.

Lord Babs: Baffles me!
Christian: EVERYTHING God created is good...

Atheist: everything including evil?

Christian: nooo! Devil created evil, not God.

Yea, He loves devil too but he gone astray from beginning due to its pride. If devil can go back to Him and ask forgiveness He is just enough to forgive him but devil will never do such like some of athiest will not do.

Ask yourself why all these natural disaster are so rare in some places because most scientist acquired their knowledge from devil.

Ahasuerus: Do you even understand basic physics? I had to comment on this because not only is it illegible but it also exposes the ignorance of what those forces are on the part of the Christian who posed the question/ concocted this rubbish.

Yes Mr. Man I do. You are free to spit anything from your mouth.
Tell me why the nature is so wise to believe that humans need rays of light to survive and then placed our planet(earth) to revolve the sun, why earth is not revolving the pluto, saturn, venus e.t.c?

Have little time to think for youeself don't just read story and based your conclusion on it.

Christian: centripetal and centrifuga forces keeps planets revolve the sun without go astray off their orbit, was it the sun that is generating the forces?

Athiest: No

Christian: then why planets didn't revolve themselves?

Athiest: is inexplicable

Christian: definitely there is God because if centripetal and centrifuga exist on its own planets must not revolve the sun only.
