Ok, Judaism. Are confirnming the fact that Jesus was never a Christian and had never practiced Christianity?Are you saying that the religion he practiced was JUDAISM?

That is a good one. Now tell me, when did JUDAISM started and who named it so.

What ever they tell you guys in the Mosque has really messed up your brain, you need to go collect your brain back from the mosque.

Just seeing this reply shows you are not worth my disturbing myself over to engage. . Who said anything about Jesus and Christianity here..

Please here read about Judaism https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaism Then you have to go rest your bones on Jesus being a muslim that is a blatantly idiotic claim..

Christianity Etc › Re: Threatening Children With Hell.. by johnydon22(op): 3:02pm On Sep 29, 2015
K9blunt:
am sorry for quoting this lengthy post, but I want to get your attention.
though am not a fan of religion, but I think most humans need religion to keep them in place.
[b]As you may have noticed this thread was not an attack on any religion but was a call to save the Children from the psychologically induced fear of a burning place of punishment.

Our children do not deserve such threats neither should we subject them to such abuse because it is wrong.

@Bolded, i totally agree with this of which i addressed in one of my threads https://www.nairaland.com/2528015/unbeliever-why-bother-good

It is true that many people lack the independent will and self reliance it takes to shape their actions and so tends to rely on abstract concepts to derive foundation, this is a fact and i don't have a problem with that.

But first of all we should not forget or overlook how these set of people came to fully dependent on vague concepts for moral foundation, it is as a result of Child indoctrination.

In reply to this i would quote my reply to Dalaman " think this is so because humans have always been taught there is need for a catch to coerce the mind to conformity, this shouldn't be so."

So that people think they need religion to fall in place is because they have been indoctrinated to think so, they have been indoctrinated to see a punishment and reward scheme as the basis of human morality.

I am only interested in saving our Children from this abusive use of fear or perhaps get any sound mind out there to give this a thought. .
[/b]

there are many lost people in this world, their thinking is " how am I suppose to live without God?", "am not always like this, the devil got into me and I did what I did", "am too scared, there must be a place for me on the afterlife, I can't just die like that". etc.
Exactly and this also was because they have been taught, coerced and indoctrinated with these ideas at a very young age.

Teaching a young mind is like bringing a metal to a magnet, they are not able to sieve between what they find to be plausible or not, a child's mind accept this ideas and this idea sticks with him/her all his life unless on few occasions the painful emergence of independent reason takes over..

If children were not impacted, threatened and coerced into these ideas at a very young age am sure you agree with me they won't have the mindset as above..


it takes a lot of guts and one has to fight their inner demons to be free from this fictional belief of a God! if not they become more lost and resort to anarchical behaviors that will inconvenience the lives of people like you and me.
[b]This correct, the emergence of reason in the early stage is a lonely and scary one and most time painful and confusing.

My posts are always an appeal to the mind to weigh and scrutinize that which it has held onto as a child..

If children were never taught that the basis of human morality should be heaven or hell they wouldn't hold that mindset as an adult.

I totally lack belief in these barbaric and selfish concept as heaven or hell but i am not a serial killer neither do i go about raping girls affirming that morality is a human trait.

Belief in a God has not always worked to the betterment of the society, take Nigeria for example where almost 98% of her citizens are religious, if religions is synonymous to morality Nigeria would have been a moral utopia but the reverse is the case.

The moral decay in the society, the barbaric actions of a few in the name of God (like boko haram, fraudulent pastors) affirms belief in a God or the lay of punishment and reward scheme do not necessarily ensure morality.

I am only of the opinion that the young ones should be taught goodness as a human obligation towards others and not a means to an end, a ploy to ensure reward or to escape punishment, that is selfishness

And more over threatening them wit these ideas of a burning fire is an abusive way of ensuring conformity because it throws them into a psychological fear of what is not there. . I have been a victim of this..
[/b]

in this life, there must be a balance
good - evil
life - death
love - hate
happiness - sadness
etc.
This is correct and this is life.
Joys and pains
tears and smiles
Happiness and sadness
up and down
left and right
Life and death

These concepts are what keeps everything in balance, this is what life is about.
they all negate each other and so are dependent on each other for meaning...

Though most people just want the better half ..lol.. wink


imagine if everyone started thinking like you and/or me, as humans we will always look for problems to create and solutions to solve them. so its necessary to leave these so-called religious people for us to learn from them to better ourselves and for amusement.........lol.

My discussions on religions have always been a means to teach and learn, to pave ways of new ideas into young minds.

To instill independent reason and basis of self will into vibrant minds and most of all lessen the disturbing effects such beliefs might have on our society.

Most of all the subjection of innocent children to psychological fear and threat. .I find this disturbing and would speak against it when ever i can.

Nobody can ever think like others, diversity of human thinking have been a thing of wonder to human learning.

I in no way advising any to abandon theism, No. Rather i am trying to get them to weight disturbing ideas that are unhealthy to the mind and maybe probably discard these ideas...

Iooolz I think I should invite my lawyer ... I never intended accusing krystalzkris. That's the last thing I'd do here. I mean, on what ground do I base my accusations?


I said, "I commend your use of polite words."

Hawkins, Hitchens, Stephen fry, to mention a few, debate against top religious scholars about atheism and on most occasions, they win the debate.

That been because philosophy, logic and science favours atheism against theism, little wonder an agnostic barely partakes in such.
Hence I'm backing out of this argument. Maybe you'll do well against a religious jingoist, who'd argue, quoting the Bible, Quran or Torah.
Alright... smiley

If there is a historical Jesus then he must have been a [size=20]Judaic man[/size] (Practised Judaism) which was the religion of the jews of which his parents belonged to, in fact in the bible Jesus was shown to have practised Judaism, he went to the synagogue and stuff.

Who ever think Jesus was a muslim is merely swimming in the idiocy of his own delusion. . .Islam started some centuries after Jesus...

hahn:
This pig issue is only another ridiculous issue. Why create something as sweet as pork meat and then say rubbish about it? undecided The annoying thing is that in the story, the demon was cast in the pigs and they went mad and drowned themselves so I don't see why there is so much fuss. Now, my question is, when Jesus cast the evil spirit in the pig, were all the pigs in the world affected? undecided Some people will argue that pigs are dirty but the truth is that pigs that are reared in Europe have better living conditions than a lot of people in Africa undecided

Nothing can turn me away from my pork meat with stew and bread or kpokpo garri. Hian! grin
Lol..Yahweh's hatred for pigs has nothing to do with New testement of Jesus sending a man spirity mumbo jumbo on a pig..No..its from the Old testament.

Yahweh said pigs are unclean because its not a ruminant animals and same goes to thousand and one other types of animal that he thinks are unclean.

Created something and complained it is unclean. . Such ridiculous stories can never be rationalized...

Apparently both Yahweh and Allah doesn't think so. . .They both claimed to have created a pig.

At the same time Yahweh think pigs are unclean, forgetting that he created pigs. so he created it unclean. .Blaming a pig for his own shortcomings.

Allah also hates pigs even though her created pigs. .Is he not confused in the first place by creating something you would hate?

This also affirms how theism is as ludicrous as it is idiotic. . .Something big enough to create the vast universe, seats outside space and time as they claim(lmao) is busy hating a pig. . That is sheer idiocy and childishness.

That's where faith comes in. If all the concept of religion were logically proven, then, no need calling it faith any longer.
Exactly that is where "FAITH" the worst form of irrationality steps in. that you have "faith" does not make that your belief true, not even probably true. That you have "Faith" simply means you believe it whether it is true or not.

Faith is a very dishonest position, you shut out reason in the process of clutching on something by faith. you disregard truth when it comes along in order to hold on to your convictions. . That is intellectual dishonesty of faith.



Take for instance astral travel. It defies the laws of physics and hence nature's. How best do you describe it if not supernatural? Or would you call it a sham?
Lmao. . Astral travel is a projection of the mind, it is the mind nothing more. . why not go read about Astral travel and see..

Astral travels in no way defiles physics law or nature itself. . i wonder where you guys get these from. .nature do not have one way of manifestation. Please can you point to me the law of nature being defiled in Astral travel.

Fun Fact: Astral travel is just like dreaming but half aware of it.......its a projection of illusionary workings by the brain..



It is termed evangelism. Spreading the good news.
Oh you see? its termed good news when you abandon your religion and your culture and embrace that of another mostly at the threat of death and torture. .

The point then still remains CHRISTIANITY/ISLAM are unafrican religions and you are the one practising something that is unafrican, something you wanted to accuse Krystalzkris of. .


I don't revere black magic. I was onlytrying to buttress a point. - There are things which science cannot explain. At least, not yet.
that form of argument is called appeal to ignorance. .

Really laughable. But I wasn't talking about magic tricks. I've long known it's a hoax
You know what is really laughable?

Guess....

Not knowing the African black magic you brought up is exactly same thing..


You're correct.
But I don't think I'm confusing belief in a deity with belief in spirity existence. Like I said earlier on, I was only trying to lay emphasis.
Emphasis on area of ignorance to buttress a point is a logical fallacy. . "We don't know how this happened, therefore maybe it is this that did it.."

Also as you'd agree, most atheists don't believe in anything outside the confines of science. Talk more of spiritual beings.
The belief in supernatural mumbo jumbos is a personal thing.

Most atheists have stepped out of the confines of superstition and so disagrees with any unfounded claims of spirity higi haga.

Some theists also disagree with this too..


Please don't get it twisted, I'm very much science inclined (enthusiast), but I just have that feeling there is more to this life; else what's the essence of life if we are here today and gone tomorrow, forever?
[b]What is the essence of a star, if it here today and tomorrow it is gone.

you were not here before and now you are here why not make it count that you are here now instead of greedily swimming in your fantasies of getting another life.

Essence of life is living it, the trees that you cut down are much alive as you, the chicken you kill are much alive just like you. . I hope they will also get to live somewhere after here?

Am not sure you think so, in the greed and ego of man. humans have prize himself worthy of another life forgetting he is not the only life form on earth, that delusion has kept many bolted in the waters of their own assumptions..

You are have only one life that you are sure of, partake in it's glories, adventures, pains and joys, family and friends . .that is living.

deluding your self with the hope of another is nothing more than wishful thinking of which diminishes your ability to appreciate the one you have.. You were not in existence before you were born and somehow you are greedily clutching to a hope of being somewhere after death. . laughable.

If this is the reason people clutch on to the belief in a God then it is surely a greedy and vainful reason because it stems from the insecurity and inability to think the absoluteness of unconsciousness.

Lastly, despite we have contrasting views, I commend your use of polite words in countering my arguments.
I do not recall insulting you perhaps you should show me where i did?

Let us be fair here; Belief should not be incorporated into government.

Islam is against women driving, as a christian who feels it is OK to deny gays their constitutional rights (as found in America) because it goes against your beliefs will you also think it is OK for a Muslim clerk to deny your wife a driving license because it is against his belief?


Religious right means you have the right to practise your religion but you cannot and should not subject others to the dictates of your religion

If you don't like homosexuality then don't be homosexual.

But your religious freedom doesn't mean you should force others to live by your beliefs.

You're correct. You cannot disprove something that hasn't been proven yet. But I fault your second argument, 'Until it is proven to exist it doesn't', since aliens hasn't been proven to exist yet, if tomorrow they come visiting in stealth mode, does that mean they've not been in existence? - just an instance.
This is correct, something theoretically plausible that have not been proven yet doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

But the case study here is; The idea of Gods as laid out by religions, immaterial (Aliens are material), perfect yet needs worship, powerful enough to create the universe yet again is concerned with belief, such characteristics are sheer implausible and so puts the idea of a God out from the theoretical postulation of Alien life.

That the God you believe in has not been proven and you agree with this simply shows you just subscribe to an assumptive lay out of some people..


About supernatural phenomena.
What you dub supernatural are just phenomenons you don't yet understand or know how they were achieved.

We only have nature and nature do not have one specific way of working dubbing the phenomenons you may not understand yet supernatural only betrays the insecurity of that lack of knowledge, what ever manifestation of nature in this material world is within the confines of nature.


When the whites talk about atheism, I really don't give them much of an attention but when an African (I presume you are) talks about atheism, it really gives me a cause for concern. Aren't you aware of the black magic activities looming around?
[b]First of all you are an African and you subscribe to the idea of God that is UnAfrican.

Christianity and Islam are unafrican and were imposed on your ancestors by the foreigners at the expense of your own African beliefs and religion.

Atheism is simply the act of not believing in a God and these mindset is found in every culture at any timeline in antiquity.

@The black magic you so much revere are mere illusionary projections you have no idea how it was achieved, you can just pop into Youtube and watch magic shows, it is just magical tricks the actual action is hidden from the perception of the audience.

Until you build a bridge in five minutes with the so called African black magic or maybe conjure up a flying machine, you are still a joker..

Such punny tricks as what we see here are just laughable..

Lastly belief in supernatural powers has nothing to do with being atheistic.

There are many atheists who believe in supernatural and your spirity mumbo jumbo (what makes them atheists are simply disbelief in Gods)

There are also theists who disbelieves the existence or potency of spirity shenanigans, this doesn't make them any less theistic..

So do not confuse belief in God/Gods with belief in spirity claims..
