rationalmind: Lol, you presently know more about me as regards my religious stand than he does.

My parents are not aware I'm an atheist. How to even confront them with it is beyond my understanding.

My mum might even faint if she hears it. So, I just feel its better I keep it from them for now. I can't afford to ruin the sweet relationship I have with them.
TELL YOUR PARENTS FIRST. THEY SHOULD KNOW IF YOU ARE PROUD OF YOUR ACTION.

rationalmind: The seed of doubt was first sowed when I did a course on philosophy and religion in my 200L. It was there I was exposed to the concept of freewill, determinism and evil. I started asking some questions. I went back to God to ask for forgiveness for entertaining doubts about his existence.

However, the more I tried to get those things off my mind, the more I kept thinking of them.

I decided to throw some of the questions to my pastors when I got home on sundays during the Q n A after search the scriptures only to be given some very pathetic and lame responses. It got to a point my dad had to warn me about the questions I asked in church.

Anyway, it went on n on till it got to this stage.

And as for my district, I grew up in ogun state and attended obantoko district, obantoko group.
i think you need to first pray for a reversal back to christianity. Growth should come later

GOLD HAS HIS REASONS FOR MAKING US THE WAY WE ARE SO WHEN WE ARE PRAYING FOR HIM TO CHANGE HIS MIND AND GRANT HIS WISH, HE DECLINES .

BECAUSE SUCH CHANGE COULD LEAD TO GREATER UNFORSEEN PAIN .

FoodReason Why Coke Is A Detergent by engrtee(op): 9:58pm On Dec 05, 2013
Coke is a cleaning agent not soft drink. It




1. Removes grease stains from clothing and fabric

2. Removes rust; methods include using fabric dipped in Coke, a sponge or even aluminum foil. Also loosens rusty bolts

3. Removes blood stains from clothing and fabric.

4. Cleans oil stains from a garage floor; let the stain soak, hose off.

5. Kills slugs and snails; the acids kills them.

6. Cleans burnt pans; let the pan soak in the Coke, then rinse.

7. Descales a kettle (same method as with burnt pans)

8. Cleans car battery terminals by pouring a small amount of Coke over each one.

9. Cleans your engine; Coke distributors have been using this technique for decades.

10. Makes pennies shine; soaking old pennies in Coke will remove the tarnish.

11. Cleans tile grout; pour onto kitchen floor, leave for a few minutes, wipe up.

12. Dissolves a tooth; Use a sealed container…takes a while but it does work.

13. Removes gum from hair; dip into a small bowl of Coke, leave a few minutes. Gum will wipe off.

14. Removes stains from vitreous china.

15. Got a dirty pool? Adding two 2-liter bottles of Coke clears up rust.
16. You can remove (or fade) dye from hair by pouring diet Coke over it.

17. Remove marker stains from carpet. Applying Coke, scrubbing and then clean with soapy water will remove marker stains.

18. Cleans a toilet; pour around bowl, leave for a while, flush clean.

19. Coke and aluminum foil will bring Chrome to a high shine.

20. Strips paint off metal furniture. Soak a towel in Coke laying it on the paint surface.


Now can you imagine what is does to your stomach lining? Who needs the household and cleaner section at the hardware store when we have Coke.

HealthScience Prooves Marijuana Cures Cancer by engrtee(op): 1:05pm On Dec 05, 2013
.
Here are 4 studies proving that marijuanacan be used to treat brain cancer:
1. “Nonpsychoactive CBD was able to produce a significant antitumor activity”- Italian researchers published a study in The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeuticswhichtested cannabidiol on human brain tumor cells. They found the non-psychoactive cannabis compound to have detrimental effects on the viability of these cells, inhibiting their growth “significantly”.

2. “The combined administration of TMZ and cannabinoids could be therapeutically exploited for the management of GBM”- Another study, published in the journal Molecular Cancer Therapeutics, built off the knowledge of cannabis having anti-tumor effects and found it could be the answer to the increasing number of treatment-resistant cancers.

3. “The cannabinoid system can serve to protect the brain against neurodegeneration”- The Journal of Neurosciencecontains another study from 2001 in which THC-treated rats received neuro-protective benefits. Neuro-degeneration refers to progressively worsening brain function commonly found in age-related dementia but also when the brain is damaged. The researchers found that rats treated with THC (the compound in marijuana that makes you high) were protected against such damage, indicating it as a potential solution for slowly progressive neurodegenerative disease and also acute damage that could occur as a result of directed tumor treatment.


4. “The fair safety profile of THC…with its possible antiproliferative action on tumour cells…may set the basis for evaluating the potential antitumoral activity of cannabinoids”- Finally, a study found in the British Journal of Cancerfound that THC and other cannabinoids were able to inhibit the growth of brain tumors. In two out of nine patients, the compounds were able to decrease the number of tumor cells, all without psychoactive effects.

These four studies only represent the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the healing powers of cannabis. Other research has linked the plant to breast and prostate cancers, seizure disorders, Alzheimer’s, depression and anxiety, and even drug treatment.

Phones30 Minutes of Cell Phone Exposure Affects Brain Activity by engrtee(op): 12:48pm On Dec 05, 2013
A new study published in Clinical Neurophysiology suggests it doesn’t take years or even months of exposure for cell phone radiation to (negatively) alter our brains—it only takes minutes. The phones used in this double-blind, crossover, randomized study emitted LTE radiation, or the LTE technology so popular in “fourth generation” (4G) phones, the phones everyone clamors for.

The researchers exposed the right ears of 18 study participants to LTE radio frequency radiation. In just 30 minutes, they observed changes in brain activity. The radiation levels were within legal limits and the phone was always kept 1 cm from the ear.

Brain activity was measured using MRIs twice during a resting state, once after LTE exposure, and once after being exposed to “sham” exposure or a control. Both the right and left hemispheres of the brain were affected by the radiation.

Though this certainly isn’t the first study to examine how cells phones and electromagnetic frequencies alter regions of the brain, this is the first study to be carried out on LTE technology, the “fastest developing mobile system technology ever,” according to Global Mobile Suppliers Association. And the U.S. is the largest market for LTE in the world. More than half of the 91 million LTE subscribers around the world in March 2013 were in the U.S.

What do these changes in brain activity mean? We don’t know that yet, but previous studies have linked such cell phone radiation to sperm damage, weakened bones, increased “genetic stress”, cellular damage, and certainly brain cancer. Some have suggested it can lead to autism and Alzheimer’s disease in the long term.

Whether you have the latest LTE technology or an old flip-phone, you can minimize your exposure to cell phone radiation by:

Never holding the phone up to your head
Using the speaker instead
Not sleeping with your phone next to you
Shutting it off while not in use
Investing in radiation protection

Cell phones have changed the way many of us live. We are more connected now than ever before, but these little devices have distanced us in unimaginable ways. Add to that the potential health effects of cell phone radiation and it makes you wonder if we were better off before.

With emerging technology such as LTE, we are introducing things into our lives before we fully understand how they work and all of their potential effects. By the time we really understand their long-term effects, it could be too late.

Christianity EtcIs Pope Francis Secretly Sneaking Out Of The Vatican At Night To Give Money To T by engrtee(op): 7:15pm On Dec 02, 2013
He has personally sent money to old women struggling on a pension and to immigrants. He has personally called people who have written him letters. Is Pope Francis now secretly sneaking out of the Vatican at night to give money to the poor?

The speculation that he may be doing so arises from an interview with Archbishop Konrad Krajewski, “Almoner of His Holiness” – a little-known post that dates back to the 13th century that involves distributing money from the Holy See to the poor and marginalized.

“When I say to him ‘I’m going out into the city this evening’, there’s the constant risk that he will come with me,” said the Polish prelate.

When asked directly if Pope Francis ever joined him on these evening trips into the city, Archbishop Krajewski only smiled and said “Next question, please.” Some take that as an implicit suggestion that the Holy Father indeed is going incognito into the streets to give alms as he did while Buenos Aires.

“That’s what he’s like – at the beginning (of his papacy) he didn’t think of the awkwardness that he might create. As archbishop of Buenos Aires, when he was known as Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, the future pontiff “would go out at night . . . to find people, talk with them, or buy them something to eat. He would sit with them and eat with them on the street. This is what he wants from me,” Krajewski said.

Rumors of past Popes sneaking out of the Vatican are plentiful, including the stories that Pope John XIII would sneak out to walk and enjoy the beauty of Rome at night or that Pope Pius XII would dress as a Franciscan during WWII to assist with efforts to smuggle Rome’s Jewish population to safety.

Politics10 Black Men Recently Freed After Decades Of False Imprisonment by engrtee(op): 8:34pm On Nov 24, 2013
In 1981, after a Dallas woman was reportedly raped in her house, she picked 20-year-old Charles Chatman, who lived down the street from her, out of a lineup.
Soon thereafter, Chatman was charged and convicted of rape and was sentenced to 99 years in prison. He maintained he was an innocent man and said the victimmisidentifiedhim as the culprit. He went to the parole board three times but according to sources, was denied every time because he refused to admit guilt to the crime.
However, after years of struggling to get a DNA test, the court finally allowed him to do it in 2007. In 2008, the DNA exculpated him in the rape. Chatman was officially exonerated on February 26, 2008.
As of 2012, Chatman had received $2,417,845 in state compensation.

PoliticsIs China A Friend Of Africa? t by engrtee(op): 7:00pm On Nov 24, 2013
The first is that China’s trade-and-aid strategy targets only states with abundant natural resources and weak – and thus easily influenced – governments. This assertion does not withstand scrutiny. China supports almost all Sub-Saharan African states (except those that do not accept China’s “One China” policy and continue, for example, to recognize Taiwan as an independent country). Indeed, China is no more interested in the continent’s natural resources than are firms from any developed country.


Another widespread claim is that Chinese companies prefer to employ their own nationals rather than locals. This is a serious accusation, given that one of the big attractions of foreign direct investment is local job creation. But Chinese firms say that few local workers have the necessary skills; if they do, African governments can dictate some employment terms, including the proportion of local recruits on a project, as the Democratic Republic of Congo and Angola have done.


Critics have also highlighted the poor living conditions provided for Chinese workers, especially when compared to those offered to Western expatriates. Again, this seems unfair, as Western employees tend to be hired for senior managerial or technical posts, which are more difficult and more expensive to fill.
