AudreyI:
Thanks folaski. I will pray as advised. Whenever I wake up from these dreams, I usually get the impression it is a good dream, but I just can't explain what it means in particular.

In the last one, I seemed to have moved to another apartment. I was downstairs hanging up washed clothes(two yellow tops). I looked down and saw that I was wearing another yellow top and white shorts. Another important thing is that in these dreams, the yellow clothing is usually more than one. Would you mind interpreting more dreams for me? I don't want to impose on you in anyway though.

Many thanks and may God bless you real good.

many yellow tops:
This could mean that you are multi talented but be careful about multiple love affairs.
You may add Isaiah 30:21 for God to guide you in your choice.



pls feel free and pray that God will guide me to help you. May God bless you.

AudreyI:
Hi. Been seeing myself wearing yellow clothes in the dream. What does this mean please? Thanks.

colour in dreams are important and colour yellow could mean one of two things. if the dream ended on a positive note then you have

1. happiness and joy, wisdom, intellect . That is you a bestowed with them. so watch out

2. Your family is also likely to be putting pressure on you to do something which you are considering very serious.

Pray and ask God for direction before you yield. Think deeply also because God has given you the mental ability to do so by the colour.


If the dream ended negatively then pray against disgrace or loss due to fear. Watch out for your thought pattern because negative thought will come to pass.

Pray according to James 1:5 that God will give you wisdom to discern and make right choices. That the devil will not hijack your mental capability for evil purposes.

Thats how far i coukd descern based on the provided information. God bless you

So we're on the same page now? Children shouldn't read the bible, at least not unsupervised?

NAIRALANDERS BEWARE OF POSTS LIKE THAT OF THE OP.
He quoted that passage out of its context.
you have read the the bible with prejudice . Read the whole passage for proper understanding. What Onan was doing was wrong. He wanted a widow he inherited according to their culture and tradition to die childless. That's wickedness.

human by nature are religious beings. They worship one thing or the other in their own unique ways.

I worship the only God. The maker of the heavens and the earth. Their is no other being worthy of worship like Him. He is alive,at work in the affairs of men and spirits. He loved His creatures so much that He wouldn't want us to destroy ourselves through our sinful ways of life. It was impossible for any man to meet up with His divine standard so He sent a propitiator Jesus Christ to appease Him on our behalf. He then sent His Holy & life giving Spirit to guide and sustain us in the journey of life.

That's my God. That's the one i worship. Come and join me to worship Him. This is better experienced than just read as a creed

wiegraf:
Which kind if god gets banned by mortal nl mods?

what are you talking about?

AgentOfAllah:
Forgive my previous display of ignorance and foolishness god, I now know that I have to communicate with you in a language you understand. As a goodwill gesture for my penitence, I hope you may be able to answer me these questions as I need your divine guidance.

1) Do you believe that exquisite athletic papers throw their hands on painfully active expletives?

2) Do you know that loud mouthed corpses gloss over the melodious silence of graveyards?

3) Do you understand why Mogley enbolected his floumer?

Thanks for answering my questions and forgiving my sins, my dear lord, god, Folly-kraze

Answer the questions before you bro. stop playing hide and seek.
THERE ARE SPECTATORS WATCHING WITH KEEN INTEREST.
We are waiting

when you have a dream, the first thing to do is to immediately try to remember it. Then examine your immediate reactions , is it good or bad. Whatever it is, the first thing to do is to thank God for making us spiritually alive. Then pray for and seek understanding. Then pray more.

But if you dont always remember your dreams, you need to pray for spiritual reawakening.

dlight1:
His question doesn't demand any form of bashing, he has asked a simple question in a less offensive way. These are printed words of the bible. @op d latter is what I av an answer to, hating ur father and mother does nt literally mean showing hate towards them but simply emphasizing loving God above them i.e letting God take the first place in our hearts and our parents shouldn't be a deterrent to pleasing God

..........and also that if our parents are not believers (e.g. idol worshippers) we must not join them. This naturally will cause a division in the family. some of our siblings may join them and some may not join. That is division. This however does not mean that you should not give them their dues e.g. money for food e.t.c.

donkarly:
allah is not the christian God,moslems dont believe in trinity so they cannot be and are not same.i am a xtian and our God is the creator of all,while allah is a sun god.

........that can only be worshiped only when you face the east.

The God of the Christian is Omnipresent and worshiped anywhere any time in any direction.
So Allah is resident in the east ,a local god while God is everywhere.

FOLYKAZE:
The thread is all about Atheism and religion.

What ya got to add than attacking my person?

they are generally like that ooo and the reason is not far fetch; they belief that the whole word is theirs and so they must be worshiped; if you dont worship them , they attack you.

frank317:
Lol... U sure say u go school? Or is religion making u plain silly?

can you imagine this. I was actually discussing with reasonable people who knows that what you referred to was a typographical error.

davien:
That's because of the way "god" is placed on a tenet of faith.....faith needs no disprove...because it is an admission of lack of evidence and thus it cannot be substantiated and is indistinguishable from make-believe.

pls whats your guiding principle in life? no harm intended pls

AgentOfAllah:
My dear friend, If I try to find faults in other people's points, maybe it is because I believe that points are so easy to make that they shouldn't be faulty.



I needn't prove the non-existence of god any more than you need to prove the non-existence of a talking cow that flies. We just take it as a matter fact. Do a little reading on BURDEN OF PROOF and I'm sure you'll find that it is on the proponent of an argument, not the skeptic.

pls whats your guiding principle in life? no harm intended pls

atheists never to present present or have anything to say in proving that God does not exist only to attack the proof that he exists. Poor souls....

AgentOfAllah:
Your whole argument is predicated on an informal fallacy known as shifting the goalpost, and I'll show you how.

To begin, let's take a random subset of letters from the English alphabet. For the sake of this discourse, I'm using the first letters of my moniker, yours and Davien's. A, F and D. Now, we may string these letters into any abstract arrangement to form a word, with the only criterion being that the new word is pronounceable.

I choose DAF. I wish now, to make a claim about DAF's material attribute, and my claim is that DAF exists.

Naturally, you must be befuddled by now. "Has AgentOfAllah gone mad?", you may begin to ask. But of course not, silly. All rats are DAF, thus DAF exists.
What have I done? I have merely created a synonym for rats; a superfluous, pointless word. No doubt, easy to pronounce, but an ugly sounding coinage whose only practical application is to demonstrate the pointlessness of your argument to you. Yet, for all its pointlessness, DAF now exists as an abstract placeholder for a material entity (rats).

How then does this relate to your argument? Your Yoruba spiritualist friends, by defining the abstract arrangement of three letters (god) in such a way that it can only be seen as a synonym for mankind/human makes it a superfluous coinage that serves no additional purpose but to add more redundancy to a concept that already has an uncountable number of representations in the vast sea of existing words.

Of course, if you define 'god' so that it becomes just another synonym for man, nobody can reject the existence of god according to such a definition.

I wrote everything above to make the following point, so let's string things up into a nice coherent conclusion:

Atheism, is not a rejection of a specific abstract arrangement of letters or any of its attendant definitions, wishful or real, rather, it is the rejection of a specific concept or idea, which is the existence of a supernatural being, often abstractised using the colloquial placeholder; god.


If it makes you feel any better, I took the liberty to search if the same word exists in other languages and as it turns out, in Norwegian, good = god. Now, it will take an extremely persuasive argument to convince even the most pertinacious atheist that dogs can't be god!! I hope you feel god now?

my dear friend, i have observed with interest that all you do is to try and find fault in other people's points and not that i agree with your points but you never advance points to prove that God does not exist on your own without reference to anybody's defence of his / her faith.

FOLYKAZE:
A panpsycist defines god as a consciousness and deduced that everything is god.

And when an atheist tells panpsychist that god does not exist, the panpsychist would think they are mad.

To a pantheist, god is natural world. When atheist tell pantheist god do not exist, they would be classifed as insane folks.

When atheist tell a yoruba spiritualist that god does not exist, he will be looked at as a fool because to the yoruba, every individual including to the atheist is a god.

God existence in this three theological conception cannot be rule out and create flaws in atheism.

you always hit it.

waoo! it is only reasonable to define atheists as people worshiping a god they don't know and who don't know they are worshiping.
shi ke nan.

johnydon22:
[size=20] they were more than 300 gospels available during the council of nicene of which only 4 got voted into the bible by emperor Constantine and other church fathers.. most of the early now called gnostic gospels were not added cus it clearly contradicts each other just like even the four sypnostic gospels contradict themselves too but with similarities..[/size]

pls document your claims. what is your source ?

johnydon22:
hahahahahaha so this your own definition of dreams?

woooow am short of words..

Can you quickly give me a definition of dream as defined in ur dictionary please?

good luck. I just asked you that question to deduce some things about you and i have drawn my conclusions.

That's not the subject of this thread if you pls

johnydon22:
check ur mentions..

haa yes.
well dreams are a miniature /kind of astral travel. which is an out of the body experienced. the soul/ spirit of man leaves the body and travel as an independent entity while the body is still living.

dont you know these things?

johnydon22:
And left my quote on that unattended... lolzzz.. i know he had nothing more to add.. lmao...

what are you referring to? what post?

DProDG:
Wow...so much dishonesty in that statement.

read very well bro. i supplied the link for you to check it out since you are too lazy to do that then read


dreaming was considered a supernatural
communication or a means of divine intervention, whose
message could be unravelled by people with certain powers. In
modern times, various schools of psychology and neurobiology
have offered theories about the meaning and purpose of dreams.


what is dishonest here?

johnydon22:
Interesting... i am going to enjoy this.


So How did you get to know bro?

check this out: when you sleep in an air conditioned room and you had a dream that something is pitching you and you are running and sweating in the dream. when you wake up sweating, scared and tired. how do you explain what happened between the visible and invisible. between the physical and the superphysical. How would you explain the man that was running in the superphysical and the one sweating in the physical?

lets start from there.

FOLYKAZE:
What is the meaning of this? ?

The OP is talking about atheism and religion. He is not talking about popular ones but all religion. Can you tell me what ideology has to do with this?




This is also wrong sir

Many religion do not recognise god therefore believe in or worship any god is rule out. Yet and as you agree, they are perceive as religion.

And the point you missing bro, whether it is non theistic or theistic religion, it is still a religion. The definition you provide does not away cover ALL aspects of religion.



Do you know the meaning of worship at all?

You can simply google imperial cult, celebrity worship, ancestor worship and hero worship. To put this on rest too, worship is been defined on wiki as an act of religious devotion usually directed towards a deity.


- Imperial cult= according to wiki is a form of state religionin which an emperor, or a dynasty of emperors (or rulers of another title), are worshippedas messiahs, demigodsor deities. " Cult" here is used to mean " worship", not in the modern pejorative sense. This is a religiois devotion usually directed toward a deity (kings, empetior and leaders)

- celebrity worship= an act of religious devotion usually dirrected toward a deity (celebs).

- ancestors worship= an act of religious devotion usually directed toward a deity (ancestors).

Hero worship = an act of religious devotion usually directed toward a deity (heroes or influencial person).


Deity has been proven to be learders, celeb, ancestors and human.

Human worship anything. Atheists worship something too. Such a devotion is directed to a deity; that thing which is worship.




Are you in postion to tell them what to believe a deity is?

The Iroko tree in my yard is a deity, it is been worship by people. The snake is worship and perceive as deity in many culture. This is their belief and conviction.




oh really?
Deity is defined here http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=definition%20deity&spell=1&sa=X

de·i·ty - /ˈdēədē,ˈdāədē/
noun
1. a god or goddess (in a polytheistic religion).



While god is http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&spell=1&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=definition+god

3. an adored, admired, or influential person.



This is very simple for you to find.



1. Worship is worship. I guess you think it all about bowing down in the temple which is half correct.

2. People (of influence) are worship. You can quickly google what imperial cult is. These people are seen as DEITY.



Christianity is just a theological aspect of religion. Yet as agreed, it is still under the umbrella but the point is, defining religion without covering it total conception is wrong. Atheism is very much under this umbrella.



My definitions cover all the facets of religion and not just some form like the one you provided.

Going by your definitions;

1. Does taking of hallucinating drugs like Opium equates to a religion?

2. Science traffics in ignorance, cultivates it, and is driven by it. Does the scientific question and search for the unknown equates as a religion?


These are things that would prove your definition has it left leg missing. It is falling.

cool

johnydon22:
Spirit world kwa... this is the type of fairy tales we find very laughable..

Do you think spirit world exist?

i know that the spirit world exist

johnydon22:
which God... Amadioha?

let me ask you a question

does the spirit world exist?

johnydon22:
hahahahaha abeg oooo make you no kill me like muslims ooo..

or brand me a devil like christians ooo...

chai...

#WeFuckingLoveAtheism

it is education without the fear or reference of God that produces smart devils

johnydon22:
You claim a god exists, i say i dont believe you..

prove it.... tadaaaa... its now my religion.. lolzz.

atheists have no dogma or doctrine.. we just share one thing in common an ideology that no deity exist... i'm still wondering how you want to liken that to a religion.. #Nawa ooo..

meanwhile

#WeFuckingLoveAtheism..

ok you dont belief God exist but you belief he does not exist and you are an atheist apologist by engaging me the way you do bro

johnydon22:
lolzzz... atheism is just disbelief in any god or gods... i see no way its a religion... its not belief, it is asking for evidence .."Prove it" before i believe...

its just a way of saying "I dont want to believe, i want to know"

So i think y'all should go check the definition of religion again..

atheism is a belief that God does not exist.
