Career › Re: Does God Play Any Role In Searching/ Securing Of Jobs. by johnydon22(m):
. [b]One could continue to always see reasons why i find some religious beliefs to be disturbing.

We have billions of homeless people in this world, little children dying of hunger and natural devastating disasters killing and destroying as we speak.

The creator of the vast universe is busy ignoring these pressing matters that should have been a number 1 priority for something that allegedly is interested in the activities on earth but No it has no interest in that.

He is busy checking for who to find their keys, who masturbated or who you sleep with or finding some lone unemployed youth a job.

This religious concept of supernatural favour is one i find to be an arrogant, absurd, selfish and greedy idea.

"I probably don't deserve this but i have the favour, that little child probably need and deserve help but he doesn't have a favour then let him die"

It is a concept that gives people the impression that they are more worth than others.

Just take a look at this; An action of providence, chance and sheer normal circumstance that can play out for anybody out there is being dubbed the work of God.

If such is the work of a God then i think with the pressing devastating and dehumanizing issues pressing this planet that deserve more attention being ignored i would say that God has a huge issue of Priority misplacement.

Humans tend to give thanks to deities who are no where to be found for actions and results of human interactions resulting to random providence denying the ones that actually deserve the "thanks" what they rightly deserve in order to channel it to some invisible unfounded deity.

I give no imaginary concept credit for the achievement or failures of mankind or our society.

These like every thing thing out there is not an act of some supernatural deity but this is an event of human societal reactive result.

It is outrageous to think, it is quite hilarious for me watching the type of arrogance, greed and selfishness humans exhibit.

In this egoistic delusion of self exultation, confident moroni_c braggadocio we have prized ourselves more deserving and more important part of the universe.

We assumed up a creator for the universe, countless number of stars, billions of galaxies, trillions of planets, asteroids, nebulas all swirling together in a chaotic dance of universal harmony.

But in a little insignificant dot somewhere in a little insignificant solar system, the creator of this vast universe is busy finding keys, jobs or checking who i get married to.

Religions has never ceased to amuse me with such nonsensical megalomaniac ideas and beliefs.

MARS

Well am sure people must have been expecting the red planet on my list because this planet gave us one of the most outstanding discoveries in 2015's science journal.

It wasn't too long ago that NASA announced confirmation of liquid water on Mars, this water speculated to be sourced from maybe an underground Ice, salty aquifers or condensed humidity from Marsian thin atmosphere.

This new discovery has tickled and pricked our imaginations on the breathe taking possibilities this back door neighbour of ours may harbour.

stakes has gone high on the possible discovery of alien life maybe in microbile form on Mars...

There is a solid ice cap on mars poles mainly frozen methane and Mars geographical signature has shown Mars had ancient oceans if not more than what we have here on earth.

What ever happened to that huge amount of water, we may find out soonhuh

[b]It's not so common to hear things like "Other planets in our solar systems do they have water?"

Many of us used to think back in those days that our Earth is the only planet with water and many still trail that line of thought.

Well our earth is not the only planet in our planetary neighbourhood to possess water neither does it even possess the largest amount of it but it does has the largest stable amount of surface water.

Water has been associated with Life and a necessary factor for the emergence and survival of biological organism (This doesn't mean water is only exactly what we know it to be here)

So this deep study into our neighbourhood has revealed some really fascinating things about us and the solar system. . .

Below is a countdown of planets in our solar system with water or ice on it and these are possible candidates for our extra-terrestrial biological search..


(1)EARTH

Ok there is no way i am not starting my list with this one, its a very pretty planet beaming blue from the enormous amount of surface liquid water it possess.

To me this is the crown jewel of our solar system and my home so don't blame me if i give her much more than others.. grin

This planet seats in a very good place in the Goldilocks zone (Not too hot or too cold zone of a planetary system) of our system.

The third planet from the sun and possess almost 71% of it in contrast to 29% of land.
a good percentage of this water is in form of solid ice mostly in it's poles. .

91% percent of the earth's total water is salty water...

[b]

I am not in anyway wrong here because it is a societal right to discuss societal tenets on a positive and negative scale depending on it's tilt.

These are ideas and ideas are meant to be discussed and once it has an effect on our society it shouldn't be overlooked.

Like i said above let me say it again so you can comprehend..

"This ideas are poured out on the public And i am part of this public don't expect me to keep shut when the public of which i am part of is being rubbed with outright absurdity. "

I am apolitical but yet i discuss political ideas in their positive or negative effects on th society.

You see as long as there are people who wish to pour out such disturbing lethal mythologies to the public as truth, there will always be members of this public who know these to be untrue claims that will speak up and refute these ideas.

The best you could do is start enjoying it with me and stop complaining wink

These are ideas are being poured out on the public and i am also part of this public so don't expect me to keep shut when the public of which i am part of is being rubbed with absurd ideas, No i would speak up.

We all know the effects of such disturbing beliefs the Op is number one. . . Maybe if the religionist will quite pouring their beliefs and myths and threats on the Public then you wouldn't have members of this public like myself who will refute these ideas.

If you really find me a threat to your beliefs simply by my words Mmm speaks a lot about insecurities in such beliefs that it begs to be shielded from argument, scrutiny and questions..

But if you really want me to stop why not beg me wink or better still pray for me to stop. . am sure prayer works unless of course you doubt if prayers works.

Stop being stup1d, i gave her case out of many to show that people go through trauma and they wonder why God allows such evils to happen to them. Aint nobody gloating.

You are a god-hater, atheists do not believe in Gods existence, they do not wage e-wars and campaigns against God. Nowhere will you find that in the definition of atheism. They simply do not believe. When you go around encouraging people not to believe with you, you have deviated from atheism. Theres no sugarcoating that. Maybe you should include "refuting ones belief" in your new dictionary meaning of atheism.

As far as im concerned, you might have gone through a worse trauma than a reverend father sexually abusing you. Such trauma cements ones heart and they wage war against God to fight back. You are inclined to fight God, thats my point, if you werent too rigid, you'd have known. you need to start seeing things from another perspective

What I don't understand is how can pastors/ministers live in mansions n own jets (the ones that do) and still deem to live a Christ like life? I don't recall reading about Jesus living in such extravagant luxurious conditions on earth, basing it on bible scriptures n terms huh

If anything based on bible passages he lived a rather humble life, with not much at his disposal when it came to material possessions, so why is it that these so called " Christlike pastors" are living like kings in their districts? That the hypocrisy I don't get.

Plus if you think about it, the majority that go to church every Sunday are usually the low income n middle class earners. A high percentage give so much money in thithes n offerings to the church, leaving a lot in financial crisis whilst the pastor is praying over their demise, when that money given could of been used to help him/her personal peril more.

It really sickens me the deceitful ways some pastors (not all) play on the heart strings and vulnerabilities of it so called congregation in to subliminally extorting them for money.

I haven't been to church in 14 years, I still believe in God and pray but in the comfort of my own home in private.

Call me what you want, I don't give a phuck but that my way of worship. But even when I use to go to church, and the offerring basket came around I only put 10 cents in there, coz I needed the money more.

And I didn't feel guilty at all, if God is the provider of all things, merciful etc he would understand.


Lol... I have always noticed many pastors teach abandonment of worldly riches and desire so as to stack up riches in heaven.

But they are busy stacking up riches on earth and it begs the question "Do they really believe what they preach?"

If your pastor is by far richer than the people he is supposed to shepherd then one should ask. "Is he here to help us or are we here to help him? "

It cannot be denied that in Africa Con-men use religions to defraud the already poor and desperate masses.

There is nothing more dangerous to an economy than "Teaching young children they can pray and tithe down wealth" it outrages common economic principle and i wonder what happens in a country where people share such mindset.

Crusade grounds and Churches will always be used to extort these desperate gullible ones of the little they even have . . . . . Just take a look at the Nigerian crusade and Churches and see what i mean

One does not need be an atheist to reason.
The problem with most religious people is their myopic preoccupation with their religions' literature.


Bolded is truer than true...


A cursory reading of "the Lost book of Enki" or "the Earth Chronicles" shows why the Bible gives God attributes that are mundane.


Anthropomorphism is in itself a mundane representation in essence, these books you wrote above can shed light to development of semitic deities.

But the very idea of personal humanoid Gods betrays primitive superstition and noble supposition much more clearer


Let me drop the bomb: man was created by a higher Alien specie of Man.


ifenese seem to share similar thoughts with you on this but i doubt this hypothesis as much as i doubt the "Deity (God) did it" hypothesis but i find both to be noble but lacks basis empirical substantiation.

That we don't know how something began doesn't mean Aliens of Gods did it, it means we don't.


That's why Jesus said, " he that hath seen me hath seen the father " (John 14:9)

Yeah, you can say that again. But even if you were, you wouldnt tell a soul angry.
I have a girl im currently working on sexually abused by her father, a family supposed to be a "christian family", worse is her mother keeps quiet about it. She hates her life right now.
Ive been encouraging her for a while till she gained admission this year. That girl will hate God at any slight oppourtunity, but i bless God she has not walked into the path of atheists ravaging lions who have nothing to offer her but doom.
She has joined a unit in her school church and shes more particular about Gods love for her.
Take it or leave it, trauma has led most people to be atheists God-haters.
[b]

Someone who hates Gods is a monotheist not an atheist seems you are confused about the two.

Misotheism is a form of a theism but that person shares a kind of hatred for such concepts even though he/she thinks it exists.

atheists don't think Gods exists or hate them, when an atheist use the tenets of religious beliefs to refute religious ideas or its god concept it is not the same as hating the god

that you mostly confuse the two is of your own making.

Till date i do not need gloat over dozens of people i have helped get through challenges in their life and i for one do not mention anything about unbelief to them. when you want to help someone do so, it is not ok to bank on the misfortunes of others to instigate religious supremacy or turn the person's mind against their belief

Skepticism is a position that stems from pure curious rational honest in coincide with what is.

what ever you think makes people turn atheistic simply really is your business they do not owe you any explanation on that.

i have had the privilege of getting to interact with many people here on nairaland who Pm me with questions and i am confident to say that "most have shown to take on a position of unbelief in God concepts due to rational honesty and stark curious skepticism many don't even lean on unbelief but yet maintain a healthy nature of intellectual honesty"

There are many factors actually and these most times banks on the gullibility of the masses.

A perfect case study of how Religion can do this is the northern part of Nigeria, we all know the devastating toll religion has taken on them in every aspect of their lives.

Or here in the south where Poor masses who don't have take the little they have to the pastor as tithe to God. Because the pastor said that bible said that God said you should tithe.
