Oh quit this nonsensical Quran yarn.

the quran is just plain outright plagiarism of Both the Jewish Scripture and Some Christian Gnostic works buttered into a little touch of arabic philosophy...

Quran is just the younger brother of the bible...

Christianity Etc › Re: Jesus Didn't Die On The Cross, Judas Iscariot Did. by johnydon22(m): 10:26pm On Oct 23, 2015

sonmvayina:
quiet right John, it was a punishment for felony, it means that whatever crime Jesus committed was against Rome..not the blasphemy the unknown writers are making us understand..my good guess is that he instigated a riot that lead to Barnabas murdering some roman soldiers.

[b]

The imperial state of ROME is one whose absolute authority over it's territories were unmatched.

I doubt any roman legal official would condemn a man to death by crucifixion because some of his Angry kins men claims he blasphemed against their God.

Capital punishments like crucifixion (which was a punishment meant to torture the victim and put then through a slow death.. Takes days to die by crucifixion) cannot be issued based on blasphemy, Romans don't worship the jewish God then.

If rome was to condemn a man to crucifixion it always is for a crime against the state like treason, felony etc.
(which is why maybe in the story the writers tried asserting the jews accused jesus of disrespecting the roman authority **treason**)

But for this Op, contrary to his assertions; I really think if there was a historical Jesus whose activities inspired these legends then he was actually crucified under Rome... Don't quite know about the crime tho...

Millions died at the hands of Rome by crucifixion... [/b]

This is from the gnostic Gospel of Barnabas and it dates back to the Medieval ages. . 1.4 to 1.5k years ago and most scholars hold it that the work influenced the Quran.

The Synoptic gospels though pseudonymous too were written at a more close date within the 1st century AD.

So am betting the Gnostic gospel of Barnabas should not be taken serious, you just don't get a book 600 years later laying out opposite claims on one character and take it more serious than works that actually had time on their side.

I stand with Synoptic gospels here, if there was a historical Jesus then he probably was really crucified (Crucifixion was a common roman punishment...)

Politics › Re: Boko Haram Seizes Town On Cameroon-Nigeria Border by johnydon22(m): 4:33pm On Oct 23, 2015

[b]I don't really understand this.

One moment are winning the war, the next moment we are not. . . It is not good to politicize or bank on the tragedies of others to achieve political support like APC did during the campaign season.

The masses always knew that politicians making promises during campaign is like the promises a guy makes just to get a girl into bed.

We are now seeing that Boko Haram is not the fault of the previous government because am sure this present government have learnt its not about talking the talk but walking the walk.

Let us politicize this now because that will never solve our problems. People are dying every day damn it.

Let us throw away any form of political alliance or sentiment we may harbour and support this government to see (hope) if it can bring this to end.

That is the least we can do now because frankly this concerns us all not just the government...

Nigerian military are still issuing warnings when these guys are making it clear to them to shove the warnings up their Asss... why not stop this talk and selfie parade and start full military pounding.

This boko haram menace brought a whole military power like Nigeria to a Childish state...

Just negodu [/b]

A dog is in the family tree of the wolf and fox but a dog is an ADVANCED breed because it has been domesticated to stay with human over time and serves as security purpose. But then again, the dog emanates from the same root as well as the fox.

Yea they are COUSINS but that doesn't make a dog a fox... A dog is a dog and a fox is a fox.

You cannot classify a dog an advanced Fox or a fox and advanced dog... No rather you may classify one as an advanced breed of the canidae family.

Representing one specie with another is totally flawed...

Got that but, be it monkey or primate....As long as I used the word advanced, its inconsequential to speak further of it because logically, they both could be traced to the same descent just some split in the family tree.

Exactly the point, since they have split from the same descent they are now basically two different species... Only one umbrella holds them and the correct word still is PRIMATES.

Using monkey means you can still use Humans to classify other primates or use Gorilla to classify monkeys.

These are simply different species and using the name of another to classify another because you put ADVANCED doesn't make sense of it at all..

U asked for a tradition and that I have done. so
Go and Google it and if U think offering sacrifices to satan is not wrong, then you and I have nothing to discuss further.
Have a blessed day.

You see you have absolutely no case, just the usual idiotic my God is better than yours.

-First what is the name of the deity being sacrificed too?

-How come you find it wrong but not the sacrifices in the bible.

-How is idolatry (Because it is not meant for your own version of God? )

Next time don't bring up nonsensical assertions you cannot defend....

Majority and I mean majority atheists turned out to be atheist in their adventure to seek proof for existence and these prove are linked to the intellectual study of the sciences and evolution.

You could say many not most. . . Am sure they are some people who think Anunnakis genetically engineered humans (And this lot includes both theists, atheists, pantheists and what have you)

Yes, Not all atheists truly believes in evolution same as not all christians believes 25th december is Jesus birthday but I tell you what, Some atheists are in it for the reality of it debunking fairytales while others such as myself stumbled upon it on our adventure to seeking prove and truth, The former uses his commonsensical mindset while the later uses organic and applied thought(s) learnt in course of truth seeking adventure.

This could be ok...

Lastly, Primate explains the family tree of mammals which monkeys happens to be apart of

Exactly the point. . . According to evolution humans and monkeys come under one umbrella which is Primates.

this doesn't mean evolution asserts humans are monkeys or monkeys are humans ..Means they are genetically cousins like all forms of life in the planet are also related though some nearer than others.

I refer U to one that happened not too long ago in EDO, correct me if I am wrong.
When a christian became a king and decided to change their diabolic ways, some offerings were made in satan name, he mentioned it and stated the meaning.
Will you say that a christian who married under such custom did it in the presence of God?
my friend even Christ said give to ceaser what belongs to ceaser but that still did not stop Him from teaching them Gods' way.
He never bow to satan but encouraged all to live in peace with one another.

You still have not made even one tangible point, all i see is just one trying to assert my God is better than yours kind of fanatism.

-Now tell me what is the name of the deity the sacrifice was made in EDO tradition because i am sure Satan is a Christian thing not edon

-Now tell me again what is diabolical about it

-You still have not pointed out the traditions for me.

-Am still yet to see the idolatry

If you are reading this, you an advanced breed of monkey(homo sapien), we atheists are just the first people to admit it and am proud of us.

This is untrue, atheists has nothing to do with the scientific theory of evolution so saying atheists are the first people to admit that is a lie.

Secondly not every atheists is an evolutionist and bringing atheist on that one banner is a second lie.

Many theists are evolutionists does it make them atheistic too? . . . Scientific theories have nothing to do with atheists.

Lastly evolution asserted primates, doesn't mean monkey...

-Our cultures are barely hanging on due to lack of these written records.

- What exactly will the coming generations of Igbo children know about Igbo culture..

-The history of a people is important. . . . Even the jews had to borrow older stories from other cultures and add into the stories they have today found in the Old testament..

CoolUsername:
The OP mentioned lack of knowledge as one of the challenges female atheists are facing in Nigeria, so I gave her basic things she should know about the world around her. Science deals with facts, so she should have facts. Stating facts to people is a better approach than bashing their religion IMO. You can't be taken seriously if you don't have knowledge. So while these things have nothing to do with atheism, they are still good points to make when asked.

Oh alright i understand. . . Though scientific knowledge is necessary for every modern human in this age.

I also find History, politics, philosophy and ancient antiquities intriguing and helpful in developing a sound and balanced view of the world through consistent logic.

Though personally i do not sorely rely on Science and Reason because i feel these are necessary for every human rather than regarded merely as sufficient factors.

But i greatly distrusts everything that contradicts science or outrages reason. . . Or out boycotts systematic deductions in order to establish immutable and unquestionable dogmas. .
