The West started this... They've gradually drifted away and might soon end this...


But any hope for Africa?

Thoniameek:
He wasn't gambling with job's life as you said, what went on between job and God, shows a father that is proud of his son

He understands what it is like to loose a dog because he's been loosing us to the devil for ages and on top of it all he gave his only begotten son to renew us. So, for a time there he even felt what it is to like to loose a son

When the bible said his ways are foolishness to men, it wasn't mistaken

Maybe if you took a little of your time to understand him you would see how unworthy you're, and not blame the situation of this world (that's has been our making from beginning) on a god you don't believe exist

I'm not blaming anybody, I was just writing from a believer's perspective for you to see how foolish all these bible stories are and doesn't showcase a wise god.

But your reply makes it more sillier. I'm not surprise though, you and your god reason alike.

One day when he uses your family to proof to Satan how faithful you are, maybe by then you'll wake up from your religious slumber.

What was the bible trying to teach us with the story of Job.
Why would a loving father gamble with his son's life to the extent of wiping away his whole family just to prove a silly point and then replace them like some grains of rice?

Does he even understand what we go through even when we lost a dog? Doesn't it show that this god is damn insensitive and emotionless and doesn't give a shiiiit about our lives?

Maybe if he had consulted his 'sons' before making decisions, he wouldn't have ended up taking some. unintelligent actions.

He claimed to be wise, make his own decisions, relegate other chief angels to the background and carry out atrocities against his creations. Lucifer revolted, he learnt from his mistakes and sent Jesus...

The memoirs of a wise god.

You don't understand the role of the Church. The Church is not meant to make the world a better place rather she is meant to make mankind knows this world is not our home. Things will get worse and worse.The Church is meant to lead people to the Kingdom of peace that is coming.

And to say brother, the Church is not an earthly organization that requires worldly wisdom for even all the OP has written there is foolishness to God.The Church is Spiritual and operate on Spiritual law not on mortal regulation and rules.And as such the post is crap.

You see what religion has done to you?

If you can't take care of the earth you have now, how can you take care of the heaven you're hoping for?

You want a place where everything is done for you, without you contributing a quota, is this how lazy religious folks are?
..
If the earth wasn't your home, why didn't your god create and transport you straight to heaven?

My guy, you're a disgrace to humanity.

johnydon22:
Lol... Abi

I'll save this and show it to that mountain of fire guy, who wants to convert me by force, telling me I'm too young to go to hell. This guy looks at me with the most pitiful eyes have ever seen, like a convict on death row.

Sometimes I feel like planking sense into his skull.

MarieSucre:
Yes I would love to hear the culprit's reasons as much as I would love to hear Shekau's reasons.

Shekau ends your life completely, a rapist gives your life a new meaning. Even in the court of law, both crimes are treated differently.

At least, knowing why he did it, could lead us to know the problem and how we can tackle it. It could be a psychological problem or perversion.

You jail a psycho for two months, he comes out and commit the same crime again. You jail a pervert for two months, he comes out and give his life to chwist.

Tell me, how would you discover and tackle these two traits without trying to get info from him?

I haven't read robot dawn. But to be fair, we humans already tell robots to worship us albeit indirectly. They do our dirty work without pay. They are meant to work for us without question.

At least that's how the bible god expects his creations to be- obey, praise and worship him without questioning. Maybe we are just learning from Baba.

But on serious note, much more advanced robots might be given freewill, just like those ones in the novel. They make decisions, take independent actions and hold intelligent conversations with humans.
If that comes to realization, maybe they might start giving us the same headache we are giving our supposed creator . But then, the difference is clear, they can see, feel, and hold a conversation with their creator without having to go through this dilemma human beings found themselves. They wouldn't need to read holy books in order to get to know us.

The christian God is a creator and so, there is no separation between God and the creator.

Christians used these terms synonymously. As a deist, I don't believe in gods, but I believe the universe was created by a or many creators who doesn't participates in running of the world, or it is the universe itself. In that way, he doesn't require acknowledgement or worship.

No. The bible doesn't answer everything. Even Jesus says that the law was made for man and not man made for the law.

Your honesty is brutal.

Well, that is true in a sense. God might see them as non-living things. Who knows.

If they can talk, reason and possesses almost all the qualities of living beings, can they still be regarded as non-living things?

Hmmmm. The gods will answer that.

That is interesting. Robot rights. Will they be similar to human rights or a condensed form of it?

According to the book, it might be similar. Cause nobody could've wasted time to investigate how a robot 'died' instead of creating another one.

The eating of holy communion is symbolic, otherwise, it would mean that christians are cannibals. So robots do not need to digest the communion. Furthermore, robots could mimic eating in many sci-fi shows.

To achieve what purpose? If Jesus didn't die for robots, there's no need for it taking part in any symbolic Christian activities. It might even be an 'abomination unto the lord'

They could just preach a recorded message that a pastor was too ill to preach.

That charisma might be lacking. You need to convince people to empty their pockets. A robot can't do that can't do that to perfection. He's already seen his creator and wouldn't know what you're talking about.

A human cant marry a dog legally. Bestiality. Also, robots are different, especially human-looking ones that can reason.

Read that novel and you'll see things. The woman that owned the dead robot used to sleep with it. I didn't finish the novel, so maybe sex contributed to his shutting down (mind you, using that phrase is a crime there. You use 'dead' instead.

To at least join a human organisation and learn about the spiritual?

LOL. What's spirituality to a robot. Should they expect invisible people too?

This is an economic problem. Robots in turn will create more jobs. Robot manufacturing, Robot repairer, Robot-human mediator, the robot whisperer.
It will also reduce some bad jobs.

For the advanced countries, yes. But for Africa, it'll be catastrophic. We are currently suffering from unemployment, if you bring robots to take over the few works we have, what do you think would happen?

Robot prostitutes will reduce the number of human prostitutes

Sounds weird. Ladies could actually use them as semi-human masturbators. I'd rather go for my kind. There's no pleasure in drilling a framework of metals.

Joagbaje:
Nothing will happen . It's just a drink . But the antichrist may own the company to start projecting his brand . So if it's true , the only concern is that we are using our money to sponsor the enemy brand.

Secondly there have been concern about global mark or number for everyone . Atm card BVN etc . Such things are harmless now . These are not the mark of the beast . The power of the beast can only be unleashed after we are gone by the rapture . It's for those who will be left behind.

Revelation 13:17-18
And no one could get a job or even buy in any store without the permit of that mark, which was either the name of the Creature or the code number of his name. Here is a puzzle that calls for careful thought to solve it. Let those who are able, interpret this code: the numerical values of the letters in his name add to 666!

You just dey carry this antichrist stuff for head like say na your family business.

AllNaijaBlogger:
I watch a lot of science fiction movies and it is a very common in sci-fi literature to find plots woven around the consequences of human creating robots capable of Artificial Intelligence.

But this is no more fiction as scientists are coming closer and closer to making very intelligent robots which might be able to question their own existence.


I have been really thinking about this issue and what it means for christianity. As a Christian, humanoid-looking robots with AI functionality creates a serious challenge for my faith. It raises questions about what it means to be a “creation” and it also creates an ethical homework in which we as Christian have to figure out how to treat robots fairly, as they become our fellow conscious beings. Yes, treating robots like humans will become an issue because scientists tend to make robots look as human as possible and so, there might be a time where humans might be indistinguishable from robots.

Here is a list of questions that an inquisitive Christian would probably ask as a result of robots having AI-

Have you read this novel, Robot of Dawn by Isacc Asimov? I think most of your answers will be there.

-Do we as human beings become more “God-like” since God created us in His own image and we have created robots in our own image?

There's one thread I distinguished between a god and a creator. Humans will only become god-like if their purpose of creating robots is for the robots to worship them. Apart from that, we are just creators and their purpose might be to assess those areas that might pose a threat to human lives. Like crime fighting, nuclear operations, multi-tasking, carrying out complex operations, etc.

-Would sex with robots be considered bestiality or perverted from a Christian point of view?

From a Christian point of view, the bible has answers to every questions, I suppose?

-Would robots have souls? Would they be judged on judgement day?

Robots run on electricity, once the electricity is gone.... They are 'dead'. Same thing is applicable to human lives.

On judgement, I don't know why a god would judge what he didn't create... Will he expect Robots to worship and sing his praises too?

-Should robots have human rights? Or would they be “robot rights”

In that novel they did. In fact, the main plot of the story is about an investigation into an alleged 'roboticide'.

-Can a robot be a pastor or reverend father since we already have robot factory workers?

What will they preach? That they are sinners and Jesus came to die for them?

-Should robots eat Holy Communion?

can Robots eat

-Can a human get married to a robot?

If a human could get married to a dog, what more getting married to her own image?

-Should robots be baptized or granted church membership?

To do what? Worship it's 'creator'?

What do you think about these questions? Would conscious robots challenge your faith?

You should really be worried about a drop in human labour force. As the more efficient robots might be displacing humans in some companies. The jobs meant for humans will now be happily done by robots with no pay.

trapQ:
Now to answer your question, there are no female angels because in the kingdom of heaven there's no such thing as gender. that's why the bible says we are "KINGS" not queens. when we go to heaven, we shall all have one gender.

There's no gender in heaven, but your bible said the angels left heaven to come straff our girls on earth... Who's fooling who?

In our small Street, we have like 5 churches, in the adjoining Street, we have up to 4. One just open recently adjacent to my house but due to low in flux of customers, he's closed up for the moment... I don't know what plans the dude might be plotting.

This particular one opposite us is a definition of hell. These people have been keeping their fellowship twice daily for one week now.

At night you can't sleep, in the morning no peace of mind.

Today is Sunday, lawd I surrender my small ears into you hands.

Very effective, as you'll be more closer to heaven. In addition, learn languages like Aramaic, Hebrews, French and not forgetting TONGUES....

They increases your chances of being heard... As you don't know which language god hears.

I pity all the atheists, they are all going to hell if they don't repent and start attending Apostolic Faith.

Other churches on earth are devilish

MarieSucre:
My dear sister. pls pay no mind to herald9. Check my last 10 or 15 mentions and post, you will see that he and probably a cousin or friend of his(they all have the same mindset) and I have a running battle on stone age opinions such as this.

You love asss lockers, don't you?

We try to weigh the two sides before coming to a conclusion, but you guys prefer people whose judgement is inclined towards the victim.

If you follow such a pattern, how will the culprit get a fair judgement. Would you just condemn people because the committed a crime, or would you love to hear how and why they did it?

freecocoa:
Just listen to yourself, sex starved old man, how can he be sex starved when you have all those beautiful women like you said?

My friend pedophilia is everywhere, it is not a thing of state.

There are different kinds of 'old men' that are worth sleeping with. He might not have been in that category... Abi do women sleep with everything they see?

Our customs, tradition and common sense doesn't allow any room for paedophilia.

FrancisTony:
You are funny. You love ya' state so much.

We all love our States, don't you?
But seriously, paedophilia is very rare or inexistent.

freecocoa:
Pedophilia is alien to who? So the man that r*ped a 9 years old girl and blamed his sons, labelling them witches, is from America abi?

Haven't heard of it. If it ever happened, it might have been a sex-starved old man in action.

You can't live by the Niger and wash your hands with spittle na.
Sure we have other problems,but paedophilia is not one of them.

FrancisTony:
This is too much.
I think allowing the man to walk naked in a market or an open place would be better.

There's this paedophile in my area who rapes children.
He has been arrested and beaten up several times but he seems not to desist from the act.
He lure little girls with a token of money.
Recently, I was standing outside a shop and he was kindof passing by, a little girl barely 12years came out from a house beside the shop and he saw her and probably wanted to turn back and follow her while staring lecherously.
Our eyes caught each other, and he pretended as if he was looking for someone else he couldn't find, so that he'll turn back and follow the girl.

Back to rape, I wonder what people like herald9 enjoy from a forced sex.

Was that supposed to be a joke? Hmm I'd be coming back to laugh.

Paedophilia is alien to us here in Akwa Ibom.
Here, we let our crops grow to the right stage before we harvest them, after all, the creator blessed us with fertile soils (beautiful women). In that aspect, I can't think of any solution to a foreign disease. Those affected should investigate themselves and repeal any law that condones paedophilia.

Our children were to be protected and not penetrated. Anything that goes against nature is not normal and should be treated as such. If shaming and jailing cannot curb this act, maybe they should take it up psychologically.

And with the parents playing their parts, the media house creating more awareness, the government enacting strict laws to punish offenders and sticking to it.... Slowly, this crime, if not totally eradicated would be reduced to the barest minimum.

Homosexuality has come to stay, let's not add paedophilia to the list.

When I remember how I dodged all this stuffs, even when I was done with my secondary education.... I must admit, I'm not proud of it.

That was too extreme. I believe no president has ill intention for his country, if he's not going at a pace you expected him to, mild criticism is the key - not a full blown threat!

Nigeria has taken this criticism of a thing too far, till some illiterates and hunger stricken, half-educated retards thinks it's their birthrights.

You can't wish a person who's piloting the affairs of your country bad, if he goes down we all go down with him. Rather pray he lands safely so your 'favourite' can take over (if there'll be any).

These Soweto schools sha

Okorocha is a stewpeed deranged old man. He met his god in America and is still basking in the euphoria even after...

All eyes on you- Meek Mill & Nicki Minaj ft Chris Brown.
So these guys have finally sealed their love with a doope track. Cool.
To be candid, that Drake Diss was shiiiit.

MarieSucre:
*my face is scary enough to chase a rapist away*

OK. the rest of the putrid glob is disregarded.

When you called me a rapist, did you expect me to smile and feel good with myself? It hurts so you know and I'm sorry if it hurts you too. Mmlm
But seriously you need to review your dp..... That one could scare a thousand ra... Scratch that...

Smile a little, it's good.

*jots a thing or two... Goes back to read*
