poik:Yes, you have nothing to say! |
SultanOfPuna:Another unintelligent comment...Why not stick to the topic of discussion and make your point? It's not that hard of a thing to do. You just saw one refutation of your Ignorant miseducation and you are already tails in hands, running like a scared fowl... Only a fôol resort's to name calling in an argument, because that is all they can do...the thought's of a fôol fears scrutiny, lest their folly be found out on the altar of common sense. |
MrBrownJay1:Exactly...No parsing of any nature, and no trying to find suitable verses whilst disregarding other verses that prove contrary... As you said, "they can either take EVERYTHING written on that book or nothing, but they certainly cant pick and choose what they will follow and what they will dismiss." ![]() |
Maximus69:Will you answer be the same if one of those people eating grass is your mom? |
god saved me from a snake in my bathroom... Next thing god will tell you to start eating grass like your brethrens below... ROtfl... ![]()
|
Maximus69:They will... Soon I am going to sue the Ministry of Education and Federal Government with regards to continued Teaching of religious studies in our public schools, a clear violation of Section 38(2) below.

poik:Very unintelligent post... Israelites that are the play things of every big empire that ever existed is who is loved by their God? You guys should stop reasoning like cave men... Germany almost exterminated the Jews save for the rest of the world who decided to save them...same way the world saved Armenia from extermination at the hands of the Othman/Turks Empire... Nothing special. You guys should stop living in fantasy... Yahweh is just a regional imaginary bloodthirsty god whom the Jews worshipped and fantasized about to save them from captivity when they were the whip boys of their fellow Arab clans... Every informed person knows that that is why the Israelites of yesteryears fantasized about the coming of a saviour, a saviour that will extinguish and kill their captors and set them free. Something that is very common among helpless captives with no hope of human rescue.. Today, the Israelites know better than to leave themselves to the mercy of imaginary deities... reason why they have put numerous resources into developing highly advanced weapons of mass destruction... USA, RUSSIA, CHINA, ENGLAND, can all destroy Israel within a blink... Please be properly guided. Jesus and the new Testament is not part of Jewish religious beliefs and texts.. So next time you want to talk about Israel and Jesus, remember this fact very clearly... Regards!!! |
MrBrownJay1:They are forced to understand thing's in the way they think will not be questioned because they think what they are saying is appealing to the ears. But, it's just for dumb people who can't read and understand thing's for themselves. |
southniyikaye:Go and sit down my friend... "god saved me from snake" man!!! |
Maximus69:But you and your organisation are going against the constitution... |
Maximus69:Sure. But if thinking is going to harm society at large, then such thinking must be kept in check. You cannot say because the constitution gives you freethinking, then you go and steal from another. Reason things before you say it out bro. Something may sound right in your head like @bolded up there, but it is wrong way of creating the wrong thoughts, building foundations based on false conclusions. |
Maximus69:Good. |
SultanOfPuna:You are giving an interpretation not related to the subject of discourse. This is what the book said: Deuteronomy 21:18-21 18 If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, 19 his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town.This chapter is self explanatory, so I don't understand why you are not comprehending it exactly as it is. A son can be 17yrs old or 1yr old. In most jurisdictions of the world, a person who is 17yrs is called a child, and adulthood start's from 18yrs in most. Definitely, a 17yrs old person can get drunk. Does it make him a grown adult? You are limiting your own reasoning because you want to defend your religious faith indirectly, instead of actually understanding the context within which the verse was laid and all the different meanings that can be deducted from it. Secondly, a rebellious and stubborn decides to impregnate a girl, and no matter what anyone said, he insists he is going to have the baby and marry the girl. He drinks a lot and eats too much, and probably in the past, he has been a play boy, and making out with girls, and the parents have been warning him to be careful, including severing his allowances and other benefits except he changes, but he refuses to change. He was probably in his Fresherman in school when the girl got pregnant. Are you going to drag him to the public to be stoned because of this since he fits the rebellious, stubborn, glutton and drunk definition you are stamping on the verse? 20 They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” 21 Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid.The main reason for it being mostly so that everyone will hear of it and be afraid? @bolded It's obvious this section of the bible was written at a time when people didn't know about reformation centres and processes nor proper litigation channels and prisons to be advocating for such a barbaric act. |
Maximus69:I showed you the meaning of the prophet which Bob Marley represents. I'm sure that in your language, one word do have more than three meanings depending on usage. Let me tell you something you may or may not know, Nigeria is a very free society...The people who fought for our freedom ensured this by making sure that The Fundamental Human Rights is codified in our Constitution and making sure that religion is not part of our central Court system. You can go to a Sharia Court and talk about Allah did this and Mohammed didn't do that, and they will deal with it there... However, you cannot talk about such nonsense in a Magistrate Court, High Court, Federal High Court, Appeal Court and Supreme Court. The reason is very obvious, when religious beliefs and practices becomes the norm, reason will be thrown to the dust. Imagine if Sharia law is applied throughout the country from a religion that says it is the religion of peace? they even have the number to prove it to some extent, even bigger than your own organisation... That same way you view them is the same way i view you and your god related personally induced dependence. |
Maximus69:Great... So that's why I'm now asking you to personally reason for yourself. Is someone that tells his fellowers to murder their children for him a good god to follow? Deuteronomy 21:18-21 18 If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, 19 his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. 20 They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” 21 Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid. By the way, your organisations fight to subdue Judges 11 has failed woefully... Those of us who know the truth know how Russell and co rewrote the Catholic bible to fit their own agenda, convincing those he could that a certain chapter of the bible in Revelations is talking about them, tricking them into believing they are the Witnesses talked about. The reason why they have woefully predicted two failed prophecies of their imaginary Armeggedon. Russell had all your head filled with imaginary Disney Fantasy land where Lions and deers are great buddies....dámn! Oh men eh, to decieve people dey very easy o...Dámn!!! |
SultanOfPuna: Your explanation is still begging the question that if someone is rebellious, stubborn, a glutton and a drunk, does it mean they should be stoned to death? Will you advocate that for your child? Quit with the semantics of "son", as every man is a son to someone, and son can never mean an adult! The passage also didn't mention an adult as you stated, so where did you get your adult coinage from? And stop calling people dumb to pass accross your thought, you don't even realize you are the one who made a dumb post. |
A barbaric page out of the bible of what Yahweh tells his adherents to do: Deuteronomy 21:18-21 18 If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, 19 his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. 20 They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” 21 Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid. Here, Yahweh tells his followers to kill their children who don't obey them... We are not surprised because he himself likes roasted meat, especially the smell from roasted human meat. Such a barbaric being. Imagine if parents decided to listen to such heartless and wicked advise from this Yahweh, at every street you turn today, you will see children stoned to death everywhere. @maximus69, this the religious God you worship? |
Maximus69:The world will always work through trade by barter, just like it has always worked till now. We don't need any religious prophet or some prophecies and laws from imaginary god's. Every one should think for themselves, question everything, find out the real truth which is liberating. You won't know what freedom is till you are out of the grasps of religion. Religion reduces your ability to have refined thoughts, to think outside the box, limiting you from becoming the better part of yourself. Religion is always telling you how weak you are, and that you are nothing without your religious god's, yet people like me have proven this to be absolute lies told to keep you eternally enslaved both in mind and body. Religion make's you start seeing things that only exist in your head as true, which is why whenever you bare it out, it will be scrutinized exactly for what it is; just lies. Religion makes you lie to defend the absurd and ridiculous thing...just like @southniyikaye who said he saw a snake and a god saved him from it...he said it's one of the ways he proved there is God when he grew up. That's what religion does to you. As for you, I know you love your congregation, even i love your congregation too. However, just like other religious book guided organisation, they're also teaching things that limit thinking and reduce cognition. To know this, start asking hard questions...ask hard questions about their doctrines and see if all the people who cozy up to you now will not turn out to start a campaign of calumny against you. But i assure you, once you ask your own questions, questions that goes against the teachings you have come to believe in your religious practices, you will definitely start seeing differences in how people treat you even in your own congregation... because you are waking up, and they will not like you. This is because once you are awoken, you can no longer be bound to their meaningless religious beliefs. Regards!!! |
Maximus69:We freethinkers who don't pray to invisible imaginary beings for help or for anything at all, do not need any imaginary God to carry out our work of freedom...
|
Maximus69:I thought it's obvious to you... you just quoted the lyrics to a song from one of them. I am also another prophet, here to help our people get emancipated from their mental slavery induced by religion. |
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but our self can free our own minds. |
Maximus69:The devil himself also has a family...God is his father and his angels are also the devil's brothers and sisters...But apparently, they don't have a mother cuz God is asexual... ![]() |
Hmmm |
Maximus69:Obviously, you have nothing to say. That's why you can never correlate what you are talking about to the comments you quote. And to think that this is exactly how you comprehend the bible...I mean, even the bible will be talking of another thing, and you will be understanding it from an off point angle. |
Nice one bro... Keep it up, and modify only when necessary. By the time you record, mix and master the song, you will have a treasure in your hands. |
Maximus69:What do you mean? |
Maximus69:What exactly are you talking about? |
Maximus69:What is the correlation between what you are saying and the post you quoted? |
Still preparing some stuff...This thread must go on!!! Regards!!! |
irunoko:Yup. |
joshjc:@bolded, the thing is tiring... But, what can they do? Everyone is being cost effective and using opportunity cost and scale of preference to determine productions to engage in...man must chop anyhow. If you think you can make it better with your own ideas, i don't think anyone will stop you... |
