johnydon22:
I thought we have established the fact that one can talk about religion independent of the premise of Gods existence.



Someone might just want to be a religious skeptic, aren't they free to be anymore?

are they not allowed to be religious skeptics?

If they are allowed then on what ground are we raising the alarm.



There is a symbol in Catholic liturgy, a ship and a sea. This symbolizes that the church is a ship that ferries humans across the sea of worldly attachments to heaven.

So an atheist attacking the concept of God may do so often due to the fact that the concept of God is always ferried across a ship of religion at least in theism.

I'm sure if he wants to attack deism he won't also bring up the Quran or veda as points to use.

We are about heading back to where we started

You spoke of cameras so you should have been able to ptproduce one for him

I'm sure you can't explain it without hitting same concrete wall of morality where all atheists' arguments meet their death.

I pray that at least one of you will realize his folly and get off the grips of the enemy the devil.
The bible says, 'even the demons believe and they tremble'

Stop trying to rationalize your existence, the people who did before realized how empty they were when it was late.

GoodMuyis:
Not in Nigeria

chemystery:
Because religionists created God

realmindz:
give all you have to god for the earth will pass away and only your treasures in heaven shall be safe. vanity upon vanity is vanity.


I'm often astonished beyond words to see multitude to be so gullible. like I don't get it, is there some kind of zombie epidemic breakdown in the world I'm not aware of.? perhaps the virus has not reached me and once I'm bitten by an infected religious sheeple then I become dormant and begin to act like them.

perhaps a bite from KingEbukasblog, felixomor or Bennyann will do the trick turning me to a religious zombie

TheHistorian:
I misconceived your submission.Pardon me.

0temAtum:
Praise da Loooooorrrrrrdddd!!!!

cc: Ranchoddas, Realmindz, Lordcenturion, Hahn, ScepticalPyrrho etc.

Felixomor will be very scared of this.

ScepticalPyrrho:
The fear of 666, is the beginning of wisdom... lol

9inches:
You have freedom of choice to 'will' things as you like. That's the reason why God does not will everything.

But if you ask whether God knows everything, the answer is a YES. And He deserves your servitude because He created you.

shadeyinka:
Did you give them suitable cameras?

MadCow1:
The Nigga showed just how gullible believers can be.

MadCow1:
I have seen this video a long time ago..

See who is excreting with his perverted throat. Your f*cking Mohammed is busy dipping his serpent preek in the hottest lava in the real hell fire not in the 72 transparent gem oloshos you are dreaming of. While his anus is also been sucked inside out with his intestines by a shape-shifting aboki demon with barbwired pestle for preek. #StinkingIslamicPigs #GodPunishYourSoCalledallah

chioma134:
You were not patient, and you were filled with self pride, and an evil spirit entered you instead for trying to deceive the people of God. Go back to God, He's very merciful, and He will enable you to live a fulfilling life in the Spirit. And deal with the pride of life, that was what hindered you initially. I pray that God brings you into the kingdom of His son, Jesus Christ again. Amen.

God the Universe who created Yahweh did so for the purpose of defining intelligence. That's to say without Yahweh the dunce being, it would be impossible to define intelligence which is the opposite of yahweh. For example, if there is no darkness, there's no convenient way to define light. If there is no bad, we can't define good. If there's no Yahweh(dullard) we can't appreciate or define intelligence.

I agree with your stance earlier, that YAHWEH IS CREATED TO FAIL

David E. Taylor of Joshua Media Ministries International in St. Louis knows that there’s an easy life ahead for the morally bankrupt.

First, you start a non-profit ministry. Next, you tell your congregation that Jesus visits you personally, He made you an “apostle,” and He gave you the powers to introduce others to Him — literally. Soon the cash will start to roll in as desperate, gullible people vie for preferential treatment. And before you know it, you’ll be living in a $2.8 million mansion, driving a Bentley, wearing Louis Vuitton, and taking luxury vacations that nobody in the church dares to question! Piece of cake.

Unless you get caught. Don’t get caught. Because then you might be under investigation for financial corruption.

You can watch the video here:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxlS79Q3EXk

The video of “Apostle” Taylor’s seven-hour deposition in a Michigan court shows a visibly nervous man chewing his bottom lip, pretending to be confused by the attorney’s questions and making pitiful excuses for his frivolous purchases.

Often in his evasive responses, he tells the attorney to direct the question to his fellow board member Michelle Brannon, who seems to know everything that he does not (which is basically everything).

For example, he doesn’t know who Brooklyn Mitchell is… even though Mitchell was listed as a dependent on his tax returns.

Attorney: On your 2012 tax return… who’s Brooklyn Mitchell?
Taylor: Brooklyn? I don’t know.
Attorney: You don’t remember who Brooklyn Mitchell is?
Taylor: No, mm-uh.
Attorney: You have no idea?
Taylor: No.
Attorney: Never heard of that person?
Taylor: No. Brooklyn Mitchell? Nope.
Attorney: On your 2012 tax return you claimed Brooklyn Mitchell as a dependent through an exemption.

And among the expenditures in question, there’s a $2.8 million dollar property in St. Louis that is listed as an asset on J.M.M.I.’s tax forms. When asked what the property is used for, after slipping up and referring to it as a “home,” Taylor insists it’s a “residential center.”

Taylor: … It is a, really, it’s a gathering place for our ministry. Where I bring in different leaders and also the staff that we have as a place of, um, you know, maybe, um, resort and teaching… A resort where we teach and train.

Taylor also claims he doesn’t know the address of — let’s call it what it is — the mansion:

Attorney: But you don’t know the address?
Taylor: No, it’s too recent for me.
Attorney: When you say it’s recent, when did that start?
Taylor: Uh, maybe a year, two… something like that. I just don’t know, so.

I guess it’s understandable that you don’t know where you live (or, ahem, send your staff for training) when you have members of your congregation who work as full-time volunteer chauffeurs, driving you all over town in your fleet of luxury vehicles.

Oh right. He has luxury vehicles, too.

The garage inventory includes a BMW, Mercedes, Bentley, and a Range Rover — the first two are registered to J.M.M.I. for the use of “high profile guests.” A $50,000 ticket was even paid to Limoland in order to chop the Mercedes into a stretch limo. Again: for the “hospitality” of “guests.”
When it comes to dressing an apostle, you’ll need something a notch above potato sack, but not quite a diamond-encrusted robe. So how about $6,000 at Louis Vuitton, $3,500 at Versace, $1,700 at Monsieur Clothing, and other designer threads totaling $30,000 over a two-year period?

Taylor defends himself by saying he has to buy his belts at these high-end stores because “they are better quality” and “have a better TV appearance.”

Attorney: So you don’t see that there’s any problem when you’re ministering to the poor, the sick, the needy, to be appearing in Louis Vuitton and Versace?
Taylor: Well, that ain’t something I purchase all the time…
Attorney: Well, it looks like you did several times in, uh…
Taylor: I’m a very frugal person when it comes to this. I go to the right places to get a lot of suits, and if I get some from those places, you don’t see that in that bill.
Attorney: I don’t see Macy’s.
Taylor: No, you don’t see that because Macy’s don’t have the kind of suits that I wear.

Taylor also claims he sweats a lot on stage and needs frequent changes of suits. Though I’d probably sweat a lot, too, if I were stealing from the poor in front of God’s face.

One woman in particular who has been left nearly homeless by J.M.M.I. is Deborah Frazier, who donated $1.2 million after cashing in her 401k valued at $600,000 and taking the equity from her home which she previously owned outright. Frazier, who was court-ordered to stop giving money to J.M.M.I. and taking her children to services, is now losing her home and owes the IRS a considerable amount in taxes from the 401k withdrawal. However, she felt compelled to give more and the ministry happily took her wire transfer.

In the deposition, Taylor was asked if he would consider giving her back some of that money so that she may try to put her life back together again:

Taylor: I would love to do that if we have the money. Presently we don’t.

I’m just throwing this out there, but maybe she can stay in the mansion that she half-paid for…

Toward the end of the deposition, the attorney brought up unrelated charges regarding allegations that Taylor had aggressively disciplined his teenage daughter, Destiny, who no longer lived with him. He’s accused of beating her with a belt after she skipped school. (The prosecutor doesn’t ask in the video clip, but I feel there may have been a missed opportunity to point out that he allegedly beat his child using, perhaps, a $5,000 Louis Vuitton belt.)

All of that took place in November of 2014 and February of 2015.

But in a video posted by Taylor on Christmas Day, you see the damage control start to set in. It’s like Taylor knows his deposition video is making the rounds on the Internet. What starts out as a festive holiday wish in front of a Christmas tree, reminding viewers that Jesus is the reason for the season, slowly morphs into a panicked pleading for his congregation to not judge him for blowing their money on bling.
