johnydon22:

You microscope is broken

Lol.

Says who? The guy said "clean" water and naturally I thought he meant water that has been boiled above 100 degrees c.

Besides, he wrote again:

Remilekun101:
you got me in a way even if i tend to drive the point somewhere else

So at this point it is safe to say no one knows what he means

. Stalker! (shudders)

Olodo, I'm following your kolo ass. Duh

You always seem to be on interesting topics though

5minsmadness:
Buddhist? Vegan?

She's a christian

Or can't you spot the barbarism?

italo:
You're the one dancing.

You say rubbish African religion should be abolished...

...then you pretend as if you don't want it abolished...

Where do you stand?

You don't understand bro. I don't really care about your beliefs or Africa's beliefs as long as it is not focused on improving the human race here on this earth.

The problem I have is you imposing your beliefs and fairy tales as fact/truth.

Keep it to yourself

italo:
You want 'rubbish' African beliefs abolished.

Then you accuse The Catholic Church of wanting 'rubbish' African beliefs abolished.

Yet you say I have nothing to say...

Gimme a break.

Everyone's belief is subject to improvement, I agree. The main point behind this issue is that the church has chosen to IMPOSE theirs on Africans. This is something Africans should choose by themselves. You haven't seen me anywhere telling people to leave their beliefs and join mine and threatening them with hell like you and your church do, have you?

italo:
I don't want to go off-topic. If you want to discuss other things, open a new thread. I'll answer you.

What exactly is your point on this thread?

Did I misread where you said African beliefs were rubbish and should be overhauled?

You obviously lack anything to say. I only replied your comments.

And you definitely didn't miss where I also said your belief is rubbish as well.

Whatever. Have a nice day.

ifeness:
This reply is not enough bro.He said your pope is trying to right all the wrongs they have done in the past.Recalling bad goods into the factory. You know the pope was pro-stoning innocent women to death. You need to counter that at least.

The guy is adept at dancing around points. He's a typical Christian hero

italo:
You're welcome to put on the gen.

But to be frank, I see no reason arguing with you. What you falsely accuse the Church of doing to African beliefs (while pretending to be in defence of African beliefs), is precisely what you would do if you could.

italo:
@ hahn, I don't see much reason to discuss with you. You don't actually want to see African culture/beliefs defended.
You actually want to see it overhauled. You just pretended to be in defence of African beliefs to attack the Church.

You must have must have missed where i said

But I do agree that as Africans we are better at practising and promoting our own beliefs rather than imitating and adopting another race's ideology and placing it over our own. This has stumped our intellectual growth and has also robbed us of our right to our identity

italo:
Jesus Christ was born in Israel but he came and died for all.
He is God the Son who created the world. The true God.

42,000 religions say this is not true even the jews

It happens that many cultures have an imperfect understanding of this supreme God and his ways.

It so happens that many cultures have created their own version of an imaginary supreme being. That's why you are all so confused

The Church comes to show all peoples the true God and his ways. To perfect what is imperfect about them, including Israel.

The church is only concerned about imposing their beliefs on other people and spreading the European world order

Where the African culture teaches respect for elders, the Church says Yes. What do Atheists say? Many would care.

Atheists believe everyone deserves respect irrespective of their age. We also believe in respecting other people's beliefs and opinions. However, if you are going to tell me your belief is the best then you have to be ready to prove it.

Where the African Culture emphasizes a thriving communal life, the Church says Yes. Many Atheists would say no need.

The world is now a global village

Where the African Culture says kill all twins, the Church says no.

Where the church says everyone who doesn't believe in Jesus deserves to go to hell atheists say "that is barbaric"

Where the culture says Kings should be buried with 7 heads, the Church says no.

Where the church says that Mary got pregnant while she was a virgin and impose it as a fact an atheists says, NONSENSE!

This is not a destruction of culture, it is rather an enhancement and improvement of the African culture.

This is not an enhancement or improvement of the African culture but rather the conscious destruction of it by imposing the church's(Europe's elite) beliefs and teaching myths and fairy tales as truths/facts while trying to promote their world order. Italo, you are nothing but a perfect example of an uncle Tom.

Wait. I need to put on the gen

there's nothing ambiguous there. Except for one who isnt grounded in algebraic word problems. A qualified examiner would score me 10/10 and score you 9/10.

And score me 11/10

PassingShot:
Ambiguous!

You see! I told you we are right. The answer is 6.667mins

italo:
So you don't really want African religion to be defended.

You're just pretending...to attack the Church.

Okay.

As an atheist, I don't believe in any form of a supreme entity especially one that is so good at playing hide and seek whether it is of a European or African or Martian origin.

From where I sit, you guys are all practicing rubbish and it's high time you stop criticizing each other and focus on what really matters. The human race.

But I do agree that as Africans we are better at practising and promoting our own beliefs rather than imitating and adopting another race's ideology and placing it over our own. This has stumped our intellectual growth and has also robbed us of our right to our identity

And you still haven't answered my question.

PassingShot:
Assume whatever figure for the tank size, you will get the same answer. I have done it with two different figures.

I guessed twice and it's still 10mins. You're wrong

johnydon22:
Correct analogy and this is just exactly how religions and God concepts work.

They give it to you in the guise of perfection and clean by Faith, simply put the concept under the microscope of reason and logic and you are left with stupendously ridiculous and outrightly implausible concept..

How come? I checked the water under a microscope and it's still clean

Remilekun101:
put the water under a microscope of high magnification... is the water still clean?

Yes it still is. Next question?

PassingShot:
Your question is meant to read "how many minutes will be required to fill the tank if all pipes were switched on at the same time?"

The answer is 6.76 minutes. I will explain it:

Let the tank size x be assumed to be 100 liters.

If Pipe A can fill it in 20 minutes, pipe A pumps 5 liters per minute (100/20)
If Pipe B can fill it in 30 minutes, it then pumps 3.33 liters per minute (100/30min)
If Pipe C can fill it in 15 mins, then it pumps 6.6 liters per minute (100/15)

When all pipes are switched on together, they jointly pump about 15 liters per minute (5+3.33+6.6 liters).

Therefore, to fill 100 liter tank, 6.6666 approx. 6.76 minutes will be needed (100/15 liter per minute).

You are assuming the size of the tank to be 100liters. The op didn't state that it is 100liters so you're wrong.

The correct answer is 10mins

dialfa:
stop guessing

I know I got it right.

Answer my own question then if you're such a whiz. Many people came from the north, many from the south, many from the east and many from the west and they all assembled in the middle.

How many people are there?

italo:
Let us test who is better at promoting our culture between you and the Catholic Church.

The Church says that there is some truth in our African religions but the have an imperfect view of the Supreme God.

What do you and other Atheists say about African religions?

Well, you didn't answer my question.

Let me speak for myself. You can ask the other guys what they think.

Apparently, man has tried as much as we can to explain the existence of life, our purpose, reasons for failure and also, out of greed, the possibility of an afterlife. African religions are also born from this quest for an explanation for what we don't understand. Personally though, I feel a lot of our beliefs need an overhaul and even better we need to put them aside and come up with a constitution that promotes equality, justice etc in our society.

That said, I feel Africans have been robbed of their right to develop our beliefs. Christians don't have a right to say that Africans are wrong by worshiping idols because worshiping the cross is also a form of idol worship.

By the way, atheists are only here to tell you guys that you are all practicing rubbish.

Curlieweed:
The maths should be elementary enough but the language is wack. What does "one successive minutes" mean?

I guess its a code for "at once"

I lack the decorum Italo displays on this forum, that's why I stay away from many threads. Please in the name of God, don't quote me in the future, I did not and have not addressed you on this thread. Thanks and God bless.

Come on, you know you want to hurl insults. Do it. After all, you god promotes lynching

ifeness:
You are obviously relating italo with Italy,that's my point! And you know I'm right.

Bro, quit it with the assumptions.

italo:
I see. "Ness" is your Yoruba middle name.

Don't forget your the one who ignorantly said my name shows I'm not proud to be African.

It is Atheists like Ifeness, Plaetton, Hahn, Johnydon22 that are proudly bearing African names and promoting the Culture.

Continue showing everyone how 'intelligent' you are.

Lol. Hahn is actually my surname.

I see my hand holding a bowl full of clean water.

What do you see?

Your reflection

What has that got to do with the topic?

I'm a guy.

My bad. I could have sworn I saw somewhere where you told someone you are a woman. My mistake

Let them read something else apart from their book of Israeli fables

Great work by dancing around key questions?

I tire o. Italo hasn't made any valid point so far
