KB524:You are a barbaric monster, your wicked utterance is disturbing really. How can you wish another human burn literally just for speaking ill of one dead dirty sun baked arab man. Why are abrahamic faiths so aggressive and always use threats to ensure conformity. I may not know your religion inside out but for the fact that it involves the belief of others burning in a literal fire because they don't share it's doctrine and revered concepts. tells me everything i need to know about you and your religion. And personally to me it is repulsive, barbaric, disturbing and wicked.. |
analice107:she's splendid thanks... Will call you tonight |
RobinHez:BBM was too boring that i had to uninstall it and it was chopping a lot of my RAM.. |
analice107:No not that. have been a bit busy, will call you. Hope you are good? |
Being a bit busy but shouldn't stop us from making out time to add something to the intellectual development of our society. I have decided to make a series of Simplified Physics sessions, explaining some fundamental aspects of physics in lay men terms for easy understanding by all and sundry.. I hope you enjoy them and contributions also are needed NEWTON'S LAWS OF MOTION No doubt Isaac Newton redefined our view of the universe and motion, and changed the global perception of universal motion.. It started simply with a basic question as it goes.. Newton was in his backyard when he saw an apple fall from a tree and he asked a question. "Why should that apple always descend perpendicularly to the ground, why can't it go side ways or upwards but always to the earth's center?" [color=000099]then he deducted, since the apple always falls towards a direction then there must be a force drawing it towards it. therefore does the apple fall perpendicularly or towards the center? This then implies that if matter draws another matter then this force attraction that is acting on the apple from the earth is also acting on the earth from the apple. https://www.chrismadden.co.uk/images/cartoons/apple-jobs-dies-cjmadden.gif Both are drawn towards each other. [/color] then the next question was "why then doesn't the moon fall to earth, does this force also stretch beyond the earth as far as we thought, perhaps it is and it is even responsible for the moon's orbit" Newton thought to himself and set out to tender a mathematic solution to these suppositions. remarkably he was right, it was the cause of orbit and i will explain this using his first lawNEWTON'S LAWS Then newton developed three laws of motion which you can see in almost everything around you and apply these laws also. -During the Hellenistic ages, Aristotle was one of the brightest minds of that era sort out to solve the problem of motion. He wondered why objects in motion eventually slow down and stop. He concluded that [color=007700]"Objects in motion get tired and that is why they slow down and eventually stop[/color] This explanation held sway through the Hellenistic era and a greater part of the medieval period until dispelled by Newton's deductions (laws) FIRST LAW also recognized as the law of Inertia. This law states A body at rest will remain so until acted upon by an external force and a body in motion will remain in motion at a constant velocity and direction unless acted upon by an external force So contrary to what Aristotle thought, a body in motion does not get tired and eventually rests but rather slows down due to external forces acting on it. E.G: kick a soccer ball high up into the air, normally that ball should remain in a constant direction and velocity but due to air resistance (external force) and gravity (external force) it slows down and falls back down. E.G 2: In a vacuum, an object will forever keep going on one direction at same speed. .. like in Space. https://2012ojhssports.weebly.com/uploads/1/0/3/3/10332437/5719402.jpg?513 Explaining how that is responsible for orbits:SECOND LAW This law states [color=#000077] The vector sum of the forces (F) on an object is equal to the mass (m) of that object multiplied by the acceleration vector (a) of the object [/color] This means that the force of an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration. Simply put "acceleration of an object is directly related to the force applied and inversely related to the mass of the object. thus F=ma F= force m=mass a=acceleration So if you kick a ball now, the force your KICK impacts on the ball can be calculated by multiplying the acceleration of your ball and the mass of the ball. m×a=F https://www.physics4kids.com/files/art/motion_laws2_240x180.gif THIRD LAW This law is quite simple .. [color=000099]For every action (force) there is an equal reaction [/force) ..[/color] You can see this when you seat on a chair, when you put you weight on a chair, an equal amount of force is needed from the chair to hold your weight or it will collapse. ..For every punch you throw at someone's nose there is an equal reaction from the impact... ![]() There's also the example of shooting a cannonball. When the cannonball is fired through the air (by the explosion), the cannon is pushed backward. The force pushing the ball out was equal to the force pushing the cannon back, but the effect on the cannon is less noticeable because it has a much larger mass. If the cannon ball and the cannon are of equal mass both would move at different directions at the same velocity but since the cannon is more massive the force was just enough to jerk it backwards. That example is similar to the kick when a gun fires a bullet forward... Also when you collide or bumb into someone, the force that throws you backwards is equal to the one that throws the person towards the other direction. https://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/59783000/jpg/_59783911_014562973-2.jpg Here sums up our lesson on motion, i apologize for the length and we are open to questions and other submissions that will improve the quality of information passed and knowledge gained.

virginboy1: Kaykaymil:No virginboy is correct... Belief is not the Only problem of the world neither is it a solution to world problems. Belief is harmless in essence but once it becomes an enemy of truth, it should be discarded because it then is a problem to the world. We should try to know things rather than believe things. Belief is a mark of uncertainty but an exercise of agreement none the less, it is dishonest but once held personally as an opinion is fine. But once it seeks to be held higher than empirical deductions and study, it becomes a nonsensical and deplorable concept. And discarding such is not an act of rebellion but out of respect to human intellect.. |
Joke of the century. We don't even have One observatory in Nigeria, Just one observatory just 1 like this .. tiny winny 1. And this daft minister of Joke and comedy ministry is talking about sending Astronauts to space. We don't even have a healthy astronomical/cosmological agency, Physics and Astronomy in Nigerian universities are joke to other foreign universities.. We'd prefer poking around temples, churches and mosques getting brain clogged with undiluted myths and legends. He should first talk about a good science background in our schools. top notch up to date scientific discoveries and knowledge should be added to our school curriculum. Get observatories in Nigeria. Develop a Physics and Astronomical agency and join the other nations in developing cosmological knowledge. Open a ground for free thinking and scientific importance and draw a line between Our science and religious beliefs. Only then can Nigeria move a little bit further. About sending Astronauts to space, its not about just going to space to poke around and fall back to earth. It's a further step in development of astronomical knowledge, so its not about planning to pay engineers from other counties to make our rockets and launch for us just to pay a visit to space. It's about knowing what you are doing there and not just visit for visiting sake... Space travel is not an achievement if you have no reason or purpose to go there! |
analice107:Hey Ann.. being long we talked dearie |
analice107:Ann you are better than this.. You couldn't read between the lines ? |
..Haaaaa the day Africans will be freed from stupid, moronic superstitions and abject pitiable gullibility such as this is the day they will be ready to join to global field of scientific giants. Python? where is the python? What exactly has Christian religion turned africans into? Is this clown show of brain dead first class gullibility salvation? I am ashamed when ever i see things like this. 21st century humans should be well above this but alas some simpletons would rather remain neck deep in such demeaning bullshiit and clown party. Even a cheap unplanned unscripted youtube amateur film is miles ahead of this clown show.. |
UyiIredia:The debate was about evolution? ..where do you keep your brain before coming here. Me debate you? ..lol.. I have suffered. No it was just a small lesson on the fallacious application of "God of the gap" argument, "Appeal to ignorance" any gap should be filled with any assumption, hence once you have a question about "nature" assume up a God for it. You never really even mustered a point banter words like "ignorance, god, fairyland" You lot need an upgrade, perhaps physical discussion can ensure that? |
Joshthefirst:Cognitive dissonance is something i see you are quite good at, always going in circles and arguing off point when stumped. Your argument was rubbished here. Many missionaries were also colonialists. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/But you had to stick to your gun shamelessly going over some meaningless babbles. It is a known fact that "the flag comes with the cross and the moon and star sign follows arabic (islamic) propagation. Bishop Desmond tutu even testified to this in his famous quote "When the missionaries came to Africa, we had the land and they had the bible. they taught us how to pray with our eyes closed when we opened them, they had the land and we had the bible" Chinua Achebe painted a clear picture of how the cross led the flag and the flag nurtured the cross in the conquest of the African society. Civilization is a consistent and progressing thing and not a mark of colonial outreach. It can be propagated by trade and commerce relationships, and inter-tribal and communal relationships. Nobody needs to colonize the other for civilization to encroach. Fela once said. "Africans think they are independent but still under colonial rule in terms of religious subordination" An act of Stockholm syndrome, worshipping the very hand that whipped you and carried you off you land.. |
vooks:quite very nonsensical this is i must say. I have always affirmed any human who asserts "Humans have no logical basis for a good ethical and moral conduct" without an external coercion stemming from an alleged punishment or selfish reward scheme is not moral in essence and i call that line of thought stupi_d and dangerous to human development and well being. If you cannot find basis to be good to other humans (moral) other than just "a belief" in an external authority then humanity has no hope with people who share such thoughts because they are all a potential dangerous time bomb to our continuous existence. Morality is a human construct, a product of societal relationships and every human, Atheists or not has every logical basis to be moral and ethical in a society. -Love -compassion -Empathy -Sympathy -Pity -Community -Social bond -Family -Love for earth and things in it -Obedience to societal norms in accordance with societal well being, equality, justice and freedom. Oh there are thousands of such logical basis why "Atheist" as well as any humans should and should be moral and ethical. Only that you have been roped to only see as a basis the coercion by the threat of a hell and the greed in the clamor of a reward. Those are not even basis themselves but are acts of fear and selfishness and so it is someone who has such mindset is to be said to have no logical basis for morality. You may assume up claims of an external love, like being good for the love of God. We do not need such assumptions and misplacement of human emotions, we do not need such "fear" masked as "love. Rather it should be, Be good to other humans for the love of other humans and be good to earth for the love of earth No external coercion involved or the need of an assumptive authority neither is it seen as a means to a selfish end (paradise) or fear to escape a punishment (hell). I'm sure everyone can see who has every logical basis to be moral. The assumption of an imaginary consequence to threaten children into conformity is a dangerous grasp of deception and abuse. and itself can never be a moral approach to child formation and instruction. |
asalimpo:whether he was tripping or head over heels or even over the moon, she has the God damn right to refuse any advances. which planet are you from? No woman is under any obligation to agree to any advance or even pay mind to it.. grow the fuc_k up my brother |
asalimpo:And you cannot even listen to yourself? Is that how to talk to people, is it by force that she must oblige to meeting any dic_k and harry on a faceless forum. People have the right to protect themselves, refuse any invitation or proposition anytime any day. Only an idiot would raise dust over it I am sure people who read this knows who the stupi_d person is here... when you talk to a girl and she refuses, either raise your shoulder stretch your shirt and move on or try harder she may well reconsider. |
The God(s) are still using swords and riding horses there is nothing they can do for us who now fly on aeroplanes. There are no gods flying down to help humanity, the power to mar or save ourselves sorely rests with us. |
juhan:In the bible 'God' (Yahweh) used to visit moses like tomorrow no deh, yarn with the guy one on one. He even saw God's back (God is a humanoid) then God even came and stayed with the elders, talked to the entire people, divided a sea, rapped music for Job and then made a public announcement on Jesus's baptism. Now suddenly he cannot say "Hi" because he's God all the other times he has being doing it he wasn't God? Remarkable how God was a popular rapper and magician showing his talent everywhere in the bible. then suddenly now that we have video cameras "He went on AWOL" And your excuse is "because he's God".. That's not only a very wretched excuse but a lame one as well |
TRHM:You people should stop peddling shiiiit in the name of one uselesss conspiracy distorted upside down idiotic history. Igbos did not migrate from any Middle Eastern part of the world. they are of niggro race just like every other west african culture, so there are all more closely related than every other part of the world. You sir should stop trying to attach yourself to what you are over some nonsensical "superior race" idiocy. there is nothing special in being Hebrew ... and Igbo traditional religion is Henotheic. |

"Actions" are the only prayer nature answers.." |
SirWere:Hahahaha Humans are the most blind and deluded species i know of. We have not shared ideas and stuffs with other life forms we have close relationship with and share this planet with. we have not and i doubt if we can even establish any form of communication with these closely related earth neighbours we have around. But here we are hoping to establish communication with one that is extra- terrestrial from our home planet. what are you going to speak to the Aliens? English? So blinded from that which is in front of us we are deluding ourselves with that which is far away from us that can be called but a shadow. |
OneManLegion: taurus25:I have never read that story and i just did so this night but i must say it is not all that convincing to me. Ok lets imagine the scenario where all the adults in the school were in a meeting leaving only the pupils in the play ground. -First it is unlikely for schools to leave only pupils in a play ground without an adult eye. Now on a second question plea -the school is located at a certain area in a vicinity, surely there must be people leaving around. hundreds if not thousands. And out of all this enormous possible numbers no other person saw the craft land except the school children? Naaaah that is very unlikely. For that story to have weight there must be other people outside who must have also seen a space craft escorted by smaller ones approach the school. But nobody did. the only testimony available are that of the pupils.. No that is no convincing enough for me... You see when it comes to U.F.O sightings i am very sceptical about it.. In science "eye witness account" is not evidence. Nei Degress Tyson once said " you cannot come out and claim you saw an alien ship or was abducted by one, such eye witness account doesn't hold water. If you want to be listened to why not grab something from the ship and show to us" In science nobody takes "eye witness account" as an evidence. If someone brings out an alien artifact taken from an alien ship, we all know it will be very unusual and different from every other thing we have on earth, therefore can add a little weight to their claims. Until someone provides solid proof for such claims, such stories remain stories (claims) and in the scientific community remains bogus. |
According to Hellenistic theology, the God Zeus himself was the king of the gods and a father to men, Thor is just a son of Odin and Sango if i am correct was once human before he transcended into deityhood. Only Zeus holds the title of a Creator father figure out of these deities ... So the three cannot be the same. they may represent anthropomorphically the same natural phenomenon which is lightening but cultural propagation and copy has led to personification of distinct natural manifestations in many cultures. Yes they might be the personification of the same phenomenon by distinct culture but with the characteristics heaped on them, they cannot be said to be the same deity. And OP where is Our Igbo God of thunder amadioha ? ![]() |
analice107:Alright i'd like you to highlight the particular question you'd like me to shed a light on. |
UyiIredia:Hahahahahahaha marvelous ... This is why we only get these in religious classes.... I am yet to see you provide your works on how natural values cannot interact to bring forth results must require an external hand. . since you know i am sure proving it aint hard so why not bring it out and earn a nobel prize for it. we all know nobody has earned a nobel prize with that yet so here is your chance. Its no longer "God created nature fully complex and functional" but now rather "the guiding hand of natural evolution" Ignorant assumptions is never a placeholder for scientific ignorance, or it will be an ever receding and irrelevant factor. 10,000 Gods may exist but if you will only hide their relevance behind the curtains of scientific ignorance then your god will always be an unneeded hypothesis in the face of scientific discoveries. ![]() Hahahahaha you lot believe in a land of golden street and diamond water and a sunless realm and golden robes and golden sashes with horse riding Gods.. don't worry though, atheists are the ones that live in a fairytale ![]() |
Kaykaymil:This is ridiculous ... it is a hypothesis that is found mostly in theological classes. If you argue because man has these qualities therefore must require a kind of designer to assemble them and this designer inspired these qualities in man therefore this designer must also have these qualities. So how can man be designed and that designer that is also similar to man in features do not need to be designed?. If you argue complexity connotes design then for something to be powerful enough to design man that thing must be more or at least as complex as man. so if complexity connotes design then that complex designer also must require another designer who in turn must require another designer and so it keeps going. but if you exempt this complex designer from being designed that means complexity doesn't require design and that kills all your argument.. That special pleading does not work... When something is proven it leaves the realm of faith and belief.. |
UyiIredia:Oh you did wish God out from thin air because you are only using "God" as a placeholder for your ignorance of the things you listed above. That you don't know something is a call for study not wishful assumption.. That there is a tree is not an excuse for me to infer tree fairies must exist that is a ludicrous assumption. That i don't know how a tree came to be doesn't prove tree fairies ... So your ignorance is never evidence of your assumptions. |
Kaykaymil:The word "God" have many meanings and uses and can be used to represent many values. So depends on your uses of the word, if it is in the realm of conceptual we can say there is such idea. If "God" is a living conscious humanoid then i believe substantiation is needed for such claim. |
analice107:Horus is an Egyptian deity most times represented with a human figure and the head of an hawk. He was the son of the God osiris and the Goddess Isis and together they make up the Egyptian triune God family. According to legend, the God seth killed Osiris and scattered his remains in the nile, Isis reassembled the scattered corpes of osiris and conjured up a penis for him and resurrected him for enough time to conceive a child by him. the child was Horus bane of seth... |
Richirich713:Of course i do all these things. I murder, rape and steal as much as i want and the much i want is zero (0) |
sonOfLucifer:I am always scared of people who do not find any need for a moral and ethical behaviour towards other humans unless they are being threatened by some freaky monster with a burning torture chamber to be moral. Always be scared and suspicious of such person because such person have no moral compass, idea or position of his/her own but needs to be controlled by something else, cannot think for himself. Morality is the product of a society, so everybody in a society has an obligation towards one another for the well being of the society and continuation. I shudder in fear when i see people talk like that, cus he has shown without the idea of a torture hungry god, he would be maiming and causing havoc on the society. I murder, steal, rape as much as i want and the much is 0 Somehow he is right we have no morality and that morality i am referring to is one roped in the ideas of his religious doctrines. I have sex with any consenting adult i want and fuc_k what his religion thinks. I do not go to church and that is an immoral act according to his religion. Maybe those are the morals atheists don't have. What i find moral is actions towards others and that is all.. If people cannot find reasons to be good to others unless threatened to do so then humanity is a sorry lot indeed. |
