Good question but don't expect a reasonable answer bro

of cos i am not. Not even expecting any answer. Let he who likes to lie to himself continue to

1. Nobody owns you anything this is perhaps the most important thing a true adult has come to terms with. Forget mummy, daddy, uncles and aunties. If you are waiting for them to set you up in life you may end up amounting to nothing. You are responsible for your success or failure in life. Those who quickly come to terms with this are usually the success stories in our society not those who keep crying and fighting all their well to do relatives that have refused to help them.

2. School and degree are OVER rated my younge?r brother is a drop-out but today he works with a media company and guess what? He is one of the lead designers of the budweiser Advertisements being rolled out this 2018 Fifa world cup. I have a friend holding a top possition in microsoft west africa that graduated with a 3rd class from Futa. The examples goes on and on. What really matters is what you can actually do not your certificate. Be good at one thing and be really really good at it. That is what matters not your useless best graduating student bragging rights that does not help anybody. If you have a first class good, but make sure you are also a first class when it comes to practical not just theoretical la cram la pour first class


3[b] Sex is over rated [/b] i broke up with a very pretty lady, spotless, fair and elegant lady, one of my boys went crazy wondering why i shld break up with such a lady. He claims he would forgive such a lady no matter what she does to him. Lol. You get to an age when pretty ladies means nothing to you anymore. I am still young but trust me

4 Loyalty is everything all you want in a friend and from family is absolute loyalty. You begin to realize that many you think are friends and family are your enemies who dont have your interest who would bad mouth you when you are absent. You need loyal friends as an adult not a crowd.

5 most things are packaging and lies from church to your colleagues at work to the news to government to relationships. We live in a fake world filled with fake people. Dont get carried away and dont try to be like other people.


6 Common sense is not common this is pretty self explanatory. dont expect too much from people so you wont be disappointed. Many times you expect people to behave matured and responsibly, they fail.


What unfortunate fact of life have you come to realise? Add yours in the comments

God does not do for man, what man can do for himself. So what exactly has God been doing for man?

Heaven helps those who help themselves.

Does heaven expect underage children to save themselves from being raped?

Does heaven expect conjoined twins to separate themselves?


Does heaven expect children in war torn countries to help themselves?


So many cant help themselves, yet heaven never helps them.


How long shall we lie to ourselves?


There is no loving God in the clouds.


It is an illusion to keep the oppressed and poor from revolting.


If you belong to any religion, take heed, you have submitted your senses

GregJo:
I think I found Collins!!!!!!!

lol. By the time op spends 150k on police looking for collins, he would know he is immature. Some things shld just teach us life lessons and we should move on ensuring we dont make same mistakes.

sholay2011:
Are you serious?

Sorry about your loss, OP. Why do people repay good with evil? But this Collins guy is actually quite foolish and short-sighted. No one here should mention he is just hustling. When will N40,000 not finish? Why cant he be loyal and maybe you can even help him locate a source that generates close to 40K periodically?

Why do people want to spend money but not work? Na wa.

the op is very immature. So cos of 40k he is making all these noise? Stupid man.

Germany the defending champions are out!!! But this has been a trend for about 20 years now. The coincidence is astonishing

In a sane society, "every Tom, Dick and Harry" is entitled to an opinion.

dont mind the fool.

dalaman:
Learn what exactly? You think if your God truly exist as advertised you'll be the one to teach anybody anything about it? Only a God that exist in your deluded imaginations will rely on your or anybody to teach people anything about it. A God that is said to WANT people to know him and be in a personal relationship with him will do all his biddingstuff himself. An idea that wants humans to to propagate it will rely solely on humans to do it. You have nothing to teach anybody apart from your delusions. Keep wallowing in it.

help me ask the clown o.

johnydon22:
I hate to play a clear antagonism because of religious argument. (I used to years ago but now i do not really think it's necessary) if someone always hits below the bar and i think he/she is an idiot i simply ignore.

Anas on the other hand has always been too serious with her religious beliefs, she once told me it was her mission (Given by God) to convert me. She probably have abandoned this.

I understand how serious she takes her beliefs and therefore understand that overwhelming burst of emotion direct antagonism of her beliefs always awakes in her and due to our friendship, my mental health and healthy practice argument i tend to avoid this.

Other lots however that i feel are simply idioti_c (their are few who have earned this distinction here) i simply ignore them. I have been on this board long ago to pay attention to idioti_t trolls.

on the other, religious people who happen to want to argue or discuss normally i am always more than happy to oblige. There are few of these lot like dorox, very intelligent and sound fellow who argues objectively, disagrees without insults and always argues based on the presented premise of argument.

john i set out on nairaland to reason with people, to share views, but over time i realize these set of people are nothing but scum! Lets not drag this issue. I wish you the best. I am sure of one thing anyway, this thread wld end up with idiotic replies as usual. All the best once again

johnydon22:
I try to avoid making remarks such as this because it is an oversimplification to me.

how did that go with anas abi na anus your friend? You cant reason with idiots.

johnydon22:
I was referring to that particular kind of approach not dishonest arguments in general.

bro all the best. I have said my own.

johnydon22:
I'd like to assume answers won't fall into this category

keep assuming. Now i begin to appreciate dalaman's approach to religious matters. Rule number one: know you are dealing with dishonest id!ots

Expect dishonest answers or total disregard for the question you are asking. Nairalanders are totally unimaginative, humdrum, wishywashy and unremarkable. Stvpid set of unintelligent beings. Yeah i said it!

Omooba77:
I still wonder why a lot of people deny power of God and all the evidencial miracles!

like which miracle?
People deny the so called power because we have realised that they are 99.9% lies. Prove me wrong by listing 2miracles here with the evidences

Acepen:
Am Not A Religious Person But I Think If I Were God I Will Always Appear To My Followers In Ways They Can Comprehend. As In The Case Of John

weigh all options to establish the truth as much as possible. Could god be so human because it is actually a human creation? Is this too much to accept? We cant just be narrow minded on such an issue were we have overwhelming evidence staked against what it claims to be and yet is astonishingly fashioned to what this topic is implying.

johnydon22:
It is more likely that John was making a precise discription

i agree with you. The excuse of misinterpretation is lame.

johnydon22:
Revelation 19 : 11 - 14

11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. 12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He [a]had a name written that no one knew except Himself. 13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.

You may have come across this same line many times but everything seem in order but try and look at this from a different perspective.

The writer of Revelation was discribing the splendor of Christ's second coming. JESUS and his angels were coming riding on white horses

This was at a period when man's transportation technology was no more than horses, chariots, carriages.

It seems the technology of heaven are always of a reflection of that of man?

Why?

The book of revelation always vividly discribes the information technology of heaven.. Scrolls

The canon of the revelation is hinged on its status as a revealed truth of God but this profound realisation leads to these questions.

1. Today, we use cars, jets and motorbikes. Jesus and his angels are still riding horses?

2. If yes, does this show heavenly technology is a reflection of the times these books were written?

3. If No. Why? What changed? Why did it change?

If you have a critical look at these clues they mean one thing. These tales are human inventions. Every description of God and heaven bears the pawprint of human inspiration.

Gold is our favorite metal, heaven is literally made of Gold.
At a time we rode horses, heaven rode horses.

Gods seem to be a perfect mirror of man at each point in his life.

well writen. Good one bro

CAPSLOCKED:

WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT THESE STORIES?

This is not my first encounter with these videos, ideology and theory. There seems to be a lot of sense in it, if we believe there are extraterrestrials. But the stories dont really add up. The 'evidences' presented are not strong enough to arrive at the conclusions reached.

CAPSLOCKED:

HARDMIRROR SAID NOTHING ABOUT THE VIDEOS.

funny i have watched them. I seem mentally lazy these days.

Hakeem12:
Exactly, the ultimate basis they all have deep down for being religious is the fear of hell. No one wants to burn forever. That thought alone could reform a hardened criminal, only if it were real.

a friend of mine claimed god raises the dead and infact he has seen it happen before. I asked if god raises beheaded people too. He started flapping around like an headless chicken trying to give excuses for his god. Bunch of dumb zombies

darkchild64:
okay pls do

get ready for some bullshit.

Anas09:
So, you are alive? Then answer the questions the post. You were an ordained pastor abi? Oga mr alive and kicking answer the questions.

Your miserable life will give me concern. wow. I repeat, my dog won't accept you as it's sitter. Get a real life.


Don't let us bury you the second time here you shameless lair.

empty threats. Please bury me. By the way, when was the first time? Seems you are pained your god has been unable to carryout your wishes on me. Poor you. Lol

Hakeem12:
Bro, if you can reason with religious people, there will be none left. Let me tell you a short story about myself. When we finished our senior waec and our results were released, everyone in my class that year made their papers once. I wasn't surprised though, cos after classes, we would all meet to brainstorm, solved questions together and covered the entire syllabus before exams. We got to a point where even the dullest in class were confident of themselves and solved questions easily. The power of practiceow the real problem began after our results were released. The principal asked us to come to church to give testimonies. I was the senior boy then and he asked me to convey the message to my mates. But before I left his office that day, I told him I wasn't coming cos I don't believe God was responsible for our success in the exam. I told him about what we did after classes, how we prepared and read a lot because of the history of failure in our school.
He told me God gave us the wisdom to do that and giving testimonies would be a way of thanking him and asking for more blessings. That's why I told him I haven't prayed since junior school so there's no way God did that. He said probably someone in my class did. To his shock, I told him I wasn't coming to give no testimony. Guess what he said? God's gonna punish me and i was not gonna pass any forthcoming exams cos I had been an ingrate.
My mates went to give testimonies, and they were all assured they would gain admission that year. I finished OAU post utme four times before exams likewise jamb. I did both once and gained admission. Throughout school, my worst grade was C, I mostly had As and Bs cos I studied and believed life was practical not mystical which I still do.

indeed, they fail to realize how useless fiction is in real life. I keep trying to educate them, prayer has nothing to do with success, nor god. Last resort is to claim you would go to hell when they realize how useless their god is beyond their delusions. The last stand is the threat of hell. Lol

bloodofthelamb:
You guys left because you were not of us. If you were of us, you would've remained. You were like a weed growing together with the true crops.

I will continue to say it, the religionist{ Those who think they can please and gain favour from God through their effort} are potential, "no God chanters." It is just a matter of time.

how shall you ever know they truth? You are doomed and hopeless. Imagine this trash coming from a muslim. What would you say to such a muslim. A man that has locked his mind to reasoning yet condemns everyone else. As convinced as you are, so are many muslims. You dont have a monopoly to self delusion. What you are implying here is that christians shld not seek any enlightenment that would derail their christianity regardless of how valid such enlightenment could be. Lol. Damn indeed it takes a dead brain, a zombie to be a christian.

abike12:
she still has her wedding ring on and she's posing in front of her mercedes. you that you don't have sexcapade, what have you accomplished in your life?

i dont blame the guys insulting you. So benz has become what is so difficult to acquire or an accomplishment? I dont understand what you are saying here because honestly it is rubbish. This is how nigerians would be celebrating rubbish as success. My heros are in silicon valley and that is what i call success not posing with a benz.

Anas09:
If you want to deny yourself as you always do, you can go ahead. But like I said, i follow people who follow you so know you.


You got that right, you are blatant open faced liar. You were a Christian who knew everything about Christianity and YHWH, yet you couldn't answer a rudimentary question about the Christ you claimed to have served. Weldone mr LIAR.


Yes, they were, just like you who answered altar call 20 times yet didn't understand what an altar call meant. Poor you.


Hardmirror was a pastor in which church? Hahahahahaaha. Oh wait wait wait !!!!. You mean the dead guy who claimed him and his fake nonexisting pastor who fasted and prayed to 70 days for YHWH's prophecy to be annulled? Wow, that was a great pastor won't you say? A pastor who was called into ministering to change what God has prophesied.

Take a glass of water and lie down before you hurt yourself.

Watch it before you slit your throat with your own hands. Here is what the Bible says about who a Backslider is...
For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,

And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come
Hebrews:6:5

Now, pls tell me what the Bible means by 'Enlightened'
2. What are heavenly gifts and how do you taste them?
3. How do you partake of the Holy Ghost?

4. What is the word of God and how do you taste it?

5. What are the Powers of the World to come? And, how do you taste them?

This verse says...

If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
Hebrews:6:6

This is who the Bible calls a Backslider.
Pls answer the above questions if you ever knew what it meant to be a christian, much less a backslider.
You can call Pastor Hardmirror to help you out.

but saying that no atheist was a committed Christian is nonsense
You were a committed Christian, that's why i asked you who Christ was before He became human nah.


p.s for real dude how did you come up with the background check and all and what gave you the confidence to proclaim that someone who you have never seen before,who didn't display any personal information of himself on his profile is who you are describing or could it be that you are prophesying... lol
You wish. When you were running around blackmailing a girl (A nairalander in Romance section) by posting your WhatsApp chats here in NL, you didn't know she also knew you outside of here and will expose you abi? Beside, a guy took it upon himself to get every detail about you.

lolzzzzzzzz. I'm not interested in your dark life, i'm only interested in letting you know that i know you have no Christian background, because in Christian families, fathers, biological or fostered, do not rape their sons.

Stop telling lies, they'll further expose you.

hardmirror is alive and kicking. Most likely you would die before him. Keep wishing him death while he lives in health. Na hardmirror thoughts go kill you. It is amusing how a so called adult could be this daft

Anas09:
I wish I was a Necromancer, but i'm not. Stay dead.

rubbish. Of cos you would wish to be a 'necromancer' cos it is better than your present pitiable state, else why wish to be one?

darkchild64:
I tire for some xtians,when suicide bombers are rebuffed by muslims they are the same ones that will claim that suicide bombers are real muslims

exactly. That is why they are the all knowing ones. They know all the mysteries and lives of everyone. They jhave a full detail of the creation of the earth and all. I am tired of this level of delusion, it is annoying that they can never ever counter or contribute to any discuss without pulling this stunt of blackmail and bullying. They would blatantly create stories about you to shut you up.

Anas09:
Let's begin by you telling us. DarkChild, Who is Jesus before he became Human?

are we talking facts here or fiction?

bloodofthelamb:
You don't know what it means to be a christian. You might no what it means to be religious but you certainly don't know what it means to be "born again."

If knew you won't be here today typing that, "there is no God."

the all knowing ones have come! What a pity! How bad can self delusion be? So you know we were never 'real' christians. Then being a christian must mean being a die hard zombie
