The bible warned you against exposing it?

The brain washing is complete

KingEbukasBlog:
I explained why these are true . Atheism is an integral part of communism . And I've asked you a gazillion times to prove that Zuckerberg had 'atheist' on his Facebook profile . I'm still waiting for proof .

KingEbukasBlog:
There is no such thing as the 'Deist god' or the 'Christian God' . What we have are the deistic concept of God and the Christian concept of God . I argue for the deist concept of God because it was derived through logic , reason and science not that I have problems with the Christian concept of God . If deism could reject religious concepts of God then the atheists here are wrong on so many levels . Apparently , deism hurts the atheist . But I stand solidly behind Christianity because it is true and portrays God's true nature .

Ishilove:
It's a mistake responding to Jackbizzle aka logicboy. Just ignore him and he will go away.

I don't know why you argue with atheists. It's a fruitless venture which the bible warned us against.

KingEbukasBlog:
I don't get the point of this thread . Why are you hurt that I speak the truth ? Aren't there religious atheists ? Aren't there atheist witches ? Isn't it true that religious skepticism does not make anyone an atheist ? Don't deists who acknowledge the existence of God reject religion ? What wrong statement have I actually made? Haven't you realised that most atheists are atheists because they are ignorant ? When you know these things you'd see how empty and vapid atheism is : it just says God does not exist and that's it . Come to theism mi bro and read the thoughts of Great Minds and relish the beauty of theistic philosophy and stop opening empty threads to besmirch me .

dalaman:
KingEbukasBlog is just angry that the atheist are forcing him to think about his version of God. There is this fear in him that they might be right hence the need to fight backwith what ever he has.

Thank you my brother KingEbukasblog
For this informative post

Here is a science article that backs up this article

http://www.science20.com/writer_on_the_edge/blog/scientists_discover_that_atheists_might_not_exist_and_thats_not_a_joke-139982

The funny part is that the scientist who carried out the research being referenced in the article is a staunch atheist.
But he was sincere enough (unlike the ones here) to admit that atheism appears to be alien to the human make up.

As a matter of fact, some even concluded that atheists dont exist.

KingEbukasBlog:
"Not-God of the gaps" is now a term used to describe observations of atheistic perspectives in which gaps in scientific knowledge are taken to be evidence or proof of God's non- existence. The term or phrase is now open to use as a criticism of atheistic positions, to mean that anything not currently explained by science shouldn't be used as evidence for the non existence of God .

Atheists have always been known for their perchance for constructing arguments that reject the existence of a cosmic designer or God while claiming uncertainty over origins of the cosmos and life which are largely unexplained by science and this term should be used appropriately to address such arguments .

Example : "I don't know but its not God " should be criticized as a 'Not-God of the Gaps' .


Usage in referring to a type of argument

The term not God-of-the-gaps fallacy can refer to a position that assumes the uncertainty of an unknown phenomenon, but blatantly denies the existence of God without providing cogent evidence as reason why God isn't the best explanation for the unknown phenomenon . Such an argument is sometimes reduced to the following form:

There is a gap in understanding of some aspect of the natural world.
Therefore the cause must not be God .

Thank you

sonofthunder:
so how did you determine God's/gods 'property'/ability/nature to be able to ascertain when God/gods have self-refuting or contradictory 'properties'?

sonofthunder:
Lol...
... I
can claim that the gods do not exist
since they have self-refuting
properties. ...
.
pls can you define self-refuting properties though.

KingEbukasBlog:
Ah big boss , he is an atheist . I mean I'm surprised that he could even string sentences together . The atheists are not intellectually bright people , they are only good at empty vituperation against anyone who has common sense . They are also full of hate and rancor ; his affronts are clearly and totally gratuitous .

sonofthunder:
... I can not claim that there is no God.
There are over 1000 gods...

sonofthunder:
You claim that there is no God but you want theist to have the burden of proof?

sonofthunder:
Lol... and when you ask them to prove their claim or how they cane to a conclusion they'll ask you to first prove the existence of God.

KingEbukasBlog:
Lmao !!! Only an atheist can be this ignorant . Just learn and waka pass abeg .

KingEbukasBlog:
You always quick to embarrass yourself . I mean you are an atheist so its kind of your thing .

Anyway , I said that some deists believe that God requires worship while some believe you can have transpersonal (panendeism ) , personal and spiritual relationship (Spiritual deism ) with God . I posted the snippet below so that anyone can see the foolishness the average atheist displays countless times and effortlessly .

KingEbukasBlog:
How about making researches on those types of deism I mentioned instead of calling me a liar . Pandeism and Panendeism are two different types of deism .

Receive sense bro !

Born2Freak:
Mr 10-things is begging for front page? lobatan!

This is too funny! jejeje! Well, it is a lesson for us that nairaland moves on popularity and not on intelligence.

stephenmorris:
been a while bro

KingEbukasBlog:
You got most of it wrong . There are different types of deism - I've mentioned them before - and each type have different beliefs . Some deists say that God does require worship and can have both a transpersonal (Panendeism) and personal relationship with man . In Spiritual Deism , man is expected to both believe in a personal God and have a spiritual relationship with God .

KingEbukasBlog:
So what's the difference between the 'deist God' and 'Christian God' ?

Blogthug:
if I call u a pseudo intellectual now u will start frowning face like over night fufu, if u seek the true definition of a philosophical term, u should contact encyclopedia of philosophy, or philosophical dictionary not Oxford dictionary that only gives u the common usage of the words ( note: the definition of words u get on your Google page is not OED but rather OD) don't be a pseudo intellectual

Blogthug:
newly indoctrinated atheist like you are always ignorant and incredulous, T H Huxley who coined the term agnosticism didn't want anything to do with Atheism or theism, hence he coined the term agnosticism , research alil, u won't die

tosyne2much:
Woooow! I'm glad I have impressed you today.. Thanks bro

tosyne2much:
Christianity which is the way of life, is aimed at imitating Jesus Christ who suffered to redeem mankind from the power of death and gives us a second chance. This way of life which is called "Christianity" today is under threats in Nigeria as it's gradually losing its value and has kept us backward and unproductive as a result of some negative attitudes of believers such as archaic mentality, over spirituality, ignorance, foolishness, poverty, lack of common sense, etc 

Many of us were brought up with so much negative beliefs which have uninstalled our common sense and have installed us with mental bankruptcy. 

Without wasting time, I'm going to point out the stench of ignorance of many Nigerian Christians. 

1. Disturbing People from Sleeping at Odd hour

Nothing is as annoying as when you returned from work late and decided to take a few hour sleep and then someone comes with a megaphone in a quiet time (4am) and starts disturbing the whole community. Many Christians inconvenient other people with this barbaric act but they don't see anything wrong in because they think they're preaching. Some churches even compete with each other by the loudness of their megaphones. This is the level at which ignorance has taken us

2. Jeopardizing their Lives due to over-spirituality

Many people have lost their lives as a result of over spirituality and ignorance. It amazes how somebody will be very ill and instead of the person to seek medical attention, he or she will jeopardize his life with ignorance. Although, it's God that heals one from every disease but that doesn't mean one should fold his arms without seek a medical expert. The Bible even says that people perish for lack of knowledge. That is the level at which ignorance has taken ignorance to

3. Worshiping their Pastors

I have fine tuned my instincts in such a way that I know what's right and wrong, what to embrace and what to disbelieve. I don't see pastors as "perfect beings" because human are generally prone to imperfections, whether in statements or actions, so you can't expect these men to be right at all times. Sometimes, they view things from narrow perspectives and come up with ill-thought theories which I sometimes do not agree with but that doesn't mean they are fake or something. 

The way some Christians worship their pastors and crawl at his feet is very annoying but the same people can't even take a bow for their own parents. These are people who disturb their pastors every now and then for things that can practically be solved with common sense.

4. Their Perceptions towards Female Trousers 

This has been a very controversial debate for centuries even though there is no biblical law that specifically talks about who should wear a skirt or trouser except "Deuteronomy 22:5" that admonishes us not to live as a transvestite, and this has to do with more than just clothing, but a life that in every way emulates the opposite sex. In this part of the world, Christians bother themselves so much over irrelevant things even more than the heaven itself. We view things from myopic view and will discredit any lady wears trouser as being worthy of making heaven. In Nigeria, the stench of ignorance is so much that wearing of trouser as a lady is the basis for making heaving that's why we pat ladies who wear skirts on the shoulders as "true believes" while we label those who wear trouser as candidates of hell fire. 

5. Weavons are from Dead Bodies 

Sometimes, I'm forced to agree with atheists each time they claim that over-religious people are the most ignorant people you can ever come across because these people will never admit they are ignorant and will always find a suitable Bible verse to back up their ignorance. To make matters worse, many religious leaders impose fear in members by telling them how weavons are from dead bodies. I mean, what's the difference between thread and weavon if not that we are suffering from ignorance in Nigeria? Are the two not attachment? That's why some of these ladies won't be able to find husbands even at old age because they are always looking unappealing to men with the wack threads they use in planting their hairs

6. Attributing every Misfortune to Witchcrafts 

People believe so much in witches and wizards even more than they believe in God. It's very evident that religious people in my country don't blame themselves for their misfortune but will always look for a way to shift the blame on the devil. That is, when they fail an exam, it's always the plan of the devil for their lives; they experience accident due to lack of safety precautions, it's the work of witches, when they are poor as a result of misplaced priorities, it's usually the plan of devil for their lives. In fact, ignorance thrives in the lives of many Christians that you will see them gather to accuse a sick woman that need medication attention of charging to a bird. 

7. The use of Electronic Devices in place of Bible

The rate at which backwardness thrives in this part of the world is alarming that even the educated ones haven't found cure to it. I have heard so many pastors advising members to desist from Facebook, Twitter and BBM, if truly they want to make heaven. When you think you've heard enough, some christians will begin a moronic argumemt whether it's ideal for a Christian to use electronic device in place of a hard copy Bible, and the first thing you will hear is that how do one chase a demon away with an IPad? This stench of ignorance is usually common with those who can't afford these things, rather they condemn it 

8. The use of Likes/Dislikes to form Church Doctrines 

Many of us will agree that many people use their own tradition, likes and dislikes to form a doctrine which every member must abide. Take for example, just because someone was brought up by his parents never to wear expensive dress, by the time this person finds himself pastoring a church, he makes it a doctrine which members must follow. In fact, I know of two fellowships in my school who don't allow workers to wear jean trouser and keep teddy bear . You can imagine the right of that ignorance? 

Brothers and sisters, the best we can do is obey God and follow his commandments. Let's not thread on the part of poverty and ignorance and then use the Bible to justify our ignorance 


May God help us 


I don't know if this makes sense 

Blogthug:
imagine someone ignorant of the etymology of a word calling another person ignorant, lol no need to bother explaining anything to u, it will be like trying to teach maths to a fish

Blogthug:
that's quite falls, according to TH Huxley who coined the term agnosticism, an agnostic is neither a theist nor an atheist, it's the middle ground
