plainmirror: The same way you are mentally impaired to narrowly deduce it to monetary and material ends.
Its only a f00l that trades his origin in a hurry for some scientfic preoceeding without sieving.

I believe after sieving through the creation story, your brain didn't see any flashing beacon. when;

1. Your god created day and night before the sun(Science taught me the revolution of the earth about its axis relative to the sun causes day and night).

2. Your god created creeping plants before the sun( Science taught me plants require sunlight for photosynthesis).

Sadly your Bible doesn't have the luxury to say it was wrong as it was written under the inspiration of the holy spirit.

plainmirror: Need i remind you that agnotism is the puppet to illuminatus.
What has that fetched you so far?

The bolded shows how fickle-minded you are. So beliefs should be all about ends? Comments like this makes me understand why Christianity thrives in areas where poverty and illiteracy are prevalent. Agnosticism has availed me a rational mind,an open-minded view of the world around me. The mental strength to face and embrace reality than bask in the euphoria of a reassuring fable. It has made me brave enough to accept responsibilities for the outcomes of my actions instead of blaming it on third parties.

plainmirror: Am not supposed to give you a case study. Carefully choose from the numerous instances that will rock your boat.
Am here to re-format your gullible and scientfic brainwashed mind.

Format your brain first, so you can free yourself from the indoctrination you have endured the longer part of your life.

davidylan: No you're no supposed or forced to believe anything. You are absolutely free to be an atheist. Just the same way I am free not to take your caterwauling seriously.

I understand faith for you is credulity. Some of us still have the option of using our brain.

plainmirror: 1 and 3 may be true just the same way as evolution and fossil theory.

There is certainly an invisible force in existence.

FEAR GOD

Absent the threat of hell and the promise of heaven, you won't practice any religion. It takes a lot of mental strength to arrive at the conclusion that the God ideology is man-made, especially in a religion-centric society like ours.

plainmirror: Agnostic right? And am sure it isn't corelated with atheism.
Sire do you have any scientfic or agnostic explanation for miracles; thats if you believe in it as well.

Waiting....

Can you bring forward a well documented miracle? I don't do hearsay.

plainmirror: Can you vividly pen down what atheism stands for and your beliefs.

I'm agnostic FYI. I don't do dogmas

Bolaino, I'm really looking forward to seeing you in December. I hope your new beliefs would allow you share a beer with me?

davidylan: you're being deliberately obtuse and dishonest. Obviously i made it clear the caliber of "atheists" here are largely an ignorant bunch who simply parrot what they read on google without much thought. If you think evolution is real, you can start by lining up your factual evidence right here. Failing which of course i can simply consign you to the dustbin of irrelevance.

We're going on 77 pages and you cowards haven't changed a bit.

How many factual evidence have you put forward to support your biblical creation story? How do you account for the different race we have today? Am i supposed to believe that reassuring fable because its an easy way out?

Title should have read " Foreign trained graduates are not necessarily better".

davidylan: 2. The smaller group is also suspect of herd mentality. This section would be a great example - the atheist viewpoint is usually advanced by a tiny minority... the rest of you just piggyback. Besides 100% of the arguments from atheists here are as unoriginal as air. Most of them are brazenly plagiarized from other atheist websites. Talk of herd mentality.

3. So you know i am scared of hell how? Absurd.

2. Is the belief question a question of originality? Why would someone who accepts without question all that is written in the bible even talk about originality?

3. Same way you came to these conclusions

davidylan: 2. The scared atheist doesnt need to avoid slandering God... he only needs to make sure others are in his corner too.

3. Most atheists are not here to encourage skepticism, they are here (mostly out of fear) to shut down debate.

davidylan: 1. Its quite rich to assume that no one knows the atheist mind even though you know absolutely everything about how the christian mind works. Amazing narcissism.

2. The scared atheist doesnt need to avoid slandering God... he only needs to make sure others are in his corner too.

3. Most atheists are not here to encourage skepticism, they are here (mostly out of fear) to shut down debate.

1. The conclusion you draw from my premises are entirely yours.

2. The larger group is usually suspect of herd mentality.

3. You are scared of hell; I know it is non-existent. Now tell me who is living in fear

davidylan: The truth also is that fear is the emotion that drives the constant need for atheists to rebut religion. The truth is if atheists didnt really care they wont be here.

How would you know this truth, if you have never been an atheist yourself before? I know about fear and how the Christian mind works, as I was formerly one myself. If the atheist is scared, he wouldn't slander your Christian God. I believe most atheists are here because they feel the need to encourage skepticism, and also put out a disparate view.

rationalmind: How about these ones?


1. It is between two consenting partners
2. The activities are done in private
3. Their activity does not in anyway pose harm to
any other.
4. Both partners are adults.

rationalmind: As the war against homosexuality keeps raging in the country partly due to religion and our culture, liberals and secularists are quick to point out these salient points why homosexuality should be legalized.

1. It is between two consenting partners

2. The activities are done in private

3. Their activity does not in anyway pose harm to any other.

4. Both partners are adults.

Going by the above reasons, there is hardly any reason why inc.est shouldn't be allowed if it is between two consenting partners, the activities are done in private, both are adults and of course, the activities pose no harm to any other.

Why then do we all see inc.est as bad and not homosexuality when the same reasons used to back up homosexuality can be used to back inc.est.

Your views and opinions are highly welcome.

I needed you to come from the medical angle to back up the "bolded" assertions, especially the last clause.

Do you realize you have only made general statements and have not stated clearly the arguments which are used to support homosexuality that can also stand for incest?

plainmirror: There is a 'living God' , fear HIM

Sadly, fear is the emotion that fuels most belief systems.

FOOL FINDER: . How is this YOUR personal experience with mermaids?

I love your moniker

GeneralShepherd: Imagine my foolish arguments against evolution on this thread *faints*

Are you presently pro-evolution?

Joshthefirst: what's wrong?

I don't like that look. I smell sarcasm somewhere.


John 2:15 So he made a whip from cords and drove all the animals out of the Temple, both the sheep and the cattle; he overturned the tables of the moneychangers and scattered their coins;

So he acted like an tout?

Joshthefirst: what's wrong?

I don't like that look. I smell sarcasm somewhere.


John 2:15 So he made a whip from cords and drove all the animals out of the Temple, both the sheep and the cattle; he overturned the tables of the moneychangers and scattered their coins;

John 2:15

King James Version (KJV)

15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;

You know we have access to a bible too mate?

Joshthefirst: slapping a witch or assaulting a church member "for Jesus" is wrong. Jesus never assaulted anyone for petes sake.

That was not a christian thing to do.

You seem to have forgotten the whipping/flogging incident, between Jesus and some people who were trading in the synagogue.

Joshthefirst: any so called pastor or evangelist or even christian who resorts to physical abuse in the name of christianity is no christian at all. Anyone who instills enmity between brethren and blows the fire is not a peace-maker.

This is what religious mentality has done in nigeria.

And that's all the more reason people need to hear the truth of Gods word and power to save and Gods love.

There a video clip of Oyedepo slapping a "witch for Jesus". Am I safe to make conclusions on his Christianity based your submission above?

Deiok: Mermaid may truely exist. We have intelligent Animals on land, Unique animals on the air, There should also be powerfull and amazing animals on water. God created all things to be perfect, but the Devil and his agents the demons have to take advantage of God creatures to carry out their evil plans and destroytions. That why they possesses, some particular species of Birds, pets, and also some animals of the sea, even to human.

Thats why the bible mentioned that at the Mention of the name Jesus, Every kneels shall bow, of the power in Heaven, On earth, And under the Earth which Include the waters (Rivers, Seas, Oceans). That means their are supernatural powers in the river.
Having that in mind, also know this that these dark forces dont just posses any species of animal, but animals that are intelligent and with good features. So that they will be able to carry out the their evil act.

These species seeing that most of their types are been use as a tool, have to take to hiding, inorder for them not to be a victim also. They have to hide also from humans, cause if humans knows of their existent and where about, they will hunt them down.
Examples are cats and some species of birds which we will try anything by all means to kill if sighted anywhere around us.

I believe these will change some persons idea about this whole thing. And i believe some answers can be found in the bible if we study it carefully.




KELVINHO 's Opinion.

The FG needs to fund our universities. I am sad.

01mcfadden: point of correction,in your lifetime and not ours!

Its goes beyond saying it, the mentality is wrong. Progress cannot come with your kinds in the majority as you would always influence how our leaders emerge.

mrphysics: well my brother or sister, it actually exist, when i was in sec. sch HOLY ROSARY COLLEGE OKPOSI EBONYI STATE, on several nights, the male students have been seriously disturbed by the activities of these beings. you will be sleeping with ur head on the pillow just to wake up with ur legs on the pillow. it happened to several male folks before the Rev. Father prayed and it stoped. it was very serious

And this proves the existence of mermaids? Sadly Nigeria may never develop in our lifetime. *sighs*

esauy: In the age of information Ignorance is a choice. Only a fool would believe in a literal interpretation of the Bible.

Are you saying the bible is an allegory? if yes, who stands an authority for the right interpretation? Your Pastor?

Joshthefirst: actually, I am no longer afraid of Gods judgement because I've been saved from it.
Just because you don't believe in it doesn't mean its not there.
Only people guilty of breaking Gods law should be afraid of his judgement and rightly so.
And only then will they look for a saviour.

Good morning sir.

I have a strong feeling you would be one of those Christians who believe they are saved but are so afraid to die. Why are you wasting time here? Get going to your better place.

texanomaly: If you believed in it, you would be too.

Sadly, I used to.

Josh is so afraid of hell.

Joshthefirst: He forsook his power as God and came to earth. Be died and rose again for our justification.

It seems you do not know the meaning of sacrifice yourself:

Sacrifice:
2.
a. Forfeiture of something highly valued for the sake of one considered to have a greater value or claim.

Jesus forfeited heaven and eternal power so that man could be reunited with God.

How come your Jesus is still all powerful, and presently in Heaven as you claim if he forfeited heaven and eternal power?

Maybe you should look up the word forfeit so you understand the definition of sacrifice above.
