[size=20] Op did not mention oyedepo who released fire on anyone who wouldn't vote goodluck... Op tell us are you a winners? cus its obvious you purposely removed oyedepos name and their is no NO2 in ur list.. [/size]

frazak:
I understand you are an athesism fanatics,athesism has done wonders 4 sme pple so did Christianity I am a witness of such

Honestly you are not even making sense... When you start making constructive assertions then we can talk..

frazak:
okay there is superstition but you don't have to condemn a belief anything you didn't see is 50-50,scientists themselves are confused, y did they always study ghost and label a place haunted ghost are forms of spiritual belief,d world is majorly divided into 3 beliefs Christianity,Islam,athesism.it is left to d people to choose their own belief,and let it guide them.

Ok that does it... You way too **sighs** Just dont know...

Are you purposely playing dumb or are you really like this for real

I cant believe someone actually wrote the above post

frazak:
dat you evolved from ape abeg if you form from ape what did ape form from,dat d universe was created as a result of big bang, 4 a reaction 2 happen there must be an action what initiated d action ,smh,whites deceiving since 1900

Do you even know the meaning of Superstition?

DProDG:
Theists can spin verses from their holy books to agree with anything.

I won't be surprised if someone says Psalm 23 is all about troubleshooting your laptop.

Asin eeehn i was lookin at the guy like "WTF " people just dont know when they are disgracing themselve...

Blowing open obvious lies to protect his shiittty beliefs..we are not surprised tho...they always do it...

actually op their are approximately 200billion galaxies in the observable universe.. (as far as man's technology can detect yet)..

The probability of man's being alone in the universe is almost impossible.. we just need the right tech..

An earth sized planet orbiting a star (in the habitable zone) have joined the millions of planets counted to be in the habitable zone and candidates for possible life.. Jupiter's moons io, europa and ganymede all possess water and are also possible candidates for life..

We only need the right technology capable of detecting this life forms..

Anyway the effect finding an extra-terrestrial life will have on religions will be drastic tho... Below is a hubble image of the andromeda galaxy with distant galaxies in the background.

I find the group of people on this threads that are uncomfortable with space exploration very amusing. They try to downplay the significance of these photos because it challenges the beliefs they have held for so long.

There was a time when anyone who believed that the earth was a sphere was tagged a heretic and killed, now the spherical nature of the earth is no longer in doubt. The time is coming when many of our age old beliefs will have to be rethought because of the science, just hold on.

am just happy someone noticed..

Hey wike or waka anything you call yourself. dont even bring ojukwu into your useless rants. Go and wage ur war and dont bring the igbo people into it by likening yourself to ojukwu.

Go do your shiit and leave ndi igbo out of it please.. i beg you.

Misogynist2014:
Not everything is provable and testable, a lot of things in science, especially those that has to do with origin are based on assumptions instead of real science e.g big bang.

sometimes you need to really read stuffs before commenting about it..

For the first time, an Earth-sized planet has been found in the habitable
zone of its star. This discovery not only proves the existence of worlds
that might be similar to our own, but also will undoubtedly shape future
investigations of exoplanets that could have terrestrial surface
environments.
The new-found body, orbiting the red dwarf star Kepler-186 and
designated Kepler-186f, is the fifth — and outermost — world to be
discovered in this system.
“This is the first definitive Earth-sized planet found in the habitable zone
around another star,” said Elisa Quintana of the SETI Institute at NASA
Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California. “Finding such
planets is a primary goal of the Kepler space telescope. The star is a
main sequence M dwarf, a very common type. More than 70 percent of
the hundreds of billions of stars in our galaxy are M dwarfs.”
Of the nearly 1,800 confirmed exoplanets found in the past two decades,
approximately 20 orbit their host star in the habitable zone — a range of
orbital distances at which surface water on a planet with an atmosphere
would neither freeze nor boil. However, all of these previously discovered
worlds are larger than Earth, and consequently their true nature — rocky
or gaseous — is unknown. On the basis of the observed dimming of
starlight from Kepler-186, the scientists estimate that this newly
discovered planet is roughly the same size as Earth.
“Theoretical models of how planets form suggest that those with
diameters less than 1.5 times that of Earth are unlikely to be swathed in
atmospheres of hydrogen and helium, the fate that’s befallen the gas
giants of our own solar system,” said Thomas Barclay, a staff scientist
for the Kepler mission affiliated with both NASA and the Bay Area
Environmental Research Institute. “Consequently, Kepler-186f is likely a
rocky world, and in that sense, similar to Venus, Earth, and Mars.”
Traditionally, planets orbiting red dwarf stars were considered to be poor
candidates for life. The objection was that star-hugging planets in the
habitable zone would become tidally locked and suffer a synchronous or
pseudo-synchronous rotation that could make climate on these planets
untenable. However, more recent modeling studies suggest that such
worlds are not necessarily inhospitable because atmospheric winds or
ocean currents could even out extreme temperature variations. In
addition, Kepler-186f is far enough away from its host star that it is
unlikely to be locked. This greater distance also reduces the danger to
any potential life-forms posed by stellar flares, which are more common
for dwarf stars.
Since 2012, the SETI Institute's Allen Telescope Array has been
observing Kepler candidate exoplanets looking for signals that would
indicate extraterrestrial intelligence. A search for emissions from
Kepler-186f has been made over the very wide frequency range of 1 to
10 GHz, but none have so far been found. These observations will be
repeated. Note that a detectable signal would require a transmitter
approximately 10 to 20 times more powerful than the planetary radar
system at Arecibo in Puerto Rico.
According to Quintana, at 490 light-years, Kepler-186f may be too dim
for follow-up surveys to probe its atmosphere, even with next-generation
telescopes: “However, our research tells us that we should be able to find
planets around bright stars that will be ideal targets to observe with
James Webb.” NASA’s Webb space-based telescope, now under
construction, will be able to directly image planets around nearby dwarf
stars and use spectral analysis to characterize their atmospheres.
Finding Kepler-186f is a first, but “it’s not a record we wish to keep,”
Quintana said. “We want to find more of these.”

[size=20] This is a science related topic, anybody who wants a religious topic should open a thread in the religion section. No more derailing here [/size]

KingEbukasBlog:
Big Bang Theory is old fashioned Atheists ...WELCOME TO A MORE REASONABLE THEORY === http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2947967/Did-Big-Bang-happen-Quantum-model-predicts-universe-NO-beginning-explain-dark-energy.html

but wait ! if the universe has no beginning according to this new theory, so God as well can have no beginning (self-existent)

Atheists see new knowledge

It's settled then.. Since you just asserted the universe has no beginning, it means no diety created it even if that deity is assumed to be self existent too..

Bawss1:
Ah, seen. Thanks for the correction. Even with that I think that the explanation I gave still holds. The Big Bang does not contradict religious assertions.

lmao... Ok

Misogynist2014:
That is not the bone of contention. If you read the KJV, you'll see that there is 'created', which means God formed out of nothing and 'made' which means God renovated. Also, there is no mention of water and air, which means that the earth was in existence before, but was as other planets, a cosmic waste, very cold and orbiting a cold sun (without form and void).

created - forms out of nothing

made - renovated

**face palm**

cold sun... woooooow... Science is dead!!!

Bawss1:
The Big Bang theory is for now still a theory. But even at that I think you misunderstand it, it basically posits that the univerise and all the celestial bodies resulted from one big initial explosion and continues to expand as a result.

How does this in anyway threatened or counter the explanation given by many religions? Could that initial explosion not be a physical manifestation of the Creative Act - Let There be Light? Could this not be the work of The Creator?

Personally I think it's when we insist on a literal interpretation of scriptural knowledge that we run into problems with science.

big bang is not an explosion, it is expansion ...lol.. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Bang

Defcon1:
Honestly, this is the very reason l don't believe the majestic universe, with countless, perfectly arranged gigantic stars and planets, came from The Big Bang

You can't get beauty and orderliness from chaos.

From volcanic eruptions comes fertile and rich soils, supernovas give rise to new stars and collision of galaxies bring about a larger or destroyed galaxy..

Octaves:
I know about the history of the church. Thanks. But if you think Religion is the reason Naija is not going forward. The you don't know what you are saying

If you read my post you would av noticed where i said RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY

D9ty7:
Mars is habitable just like the earth.
I was listening to a radio station around February and they said a news like some whitemen are preparing to go into the mars by 2025 and they have no plans of coming back, prolly they wanna start something over there. To make it look like the earth, have babies nd all that.

Its called Mission Mars One, they are planning to send an unmanned mission to mars by 2018, and a manned mission by 2025 to establish a colony tho i doubt if that would happen by then seeing they still have many variables to consider.

Below are pictures of a supposed mars habitat

Misogynist2014:
Should I educate you?

On mesopotamian copied jewish myth i guess?

Octaves:
Scientific discoveries don't contradict religion. And religion doesn't close peoples' eyes to science except for some. The church has been pro science. The Universities of Oxford and Cambridge were owned by the Catholic church b4 the persecution of catholics started. Nigeria should embrace science but stop making unfounded comments about Religion.

Lol.. You probably have no idea the history of the church... Go and read about the dark ages when the church ruled the world

KingEbukasBlog:
you are very ignorant and is making you look foolish every single time . Your poor understanding of the creation story is just too indescribable . God did not create the day , sun , moon , earth during the 7 days of creations , He restored their functionalities. You are very dumb

Wow really he didn't create them, he restored them... lol.. another one..
very laughable.

tho ur offensive insults are uncalled for. . . stop showing urself to be frustrated boy

Misogynist2014:
Because there is no life outside earth. Without HIM was not ANYTHING made that was made. No single life in other planet, not the tiniest or most irrelevant.

Ok i am going to reply this on a new thread... Your dogmatism and fanatism is epic tho. i give you that

Toongexa:
don't know where u are coming frm with this line of questioning but based on ur questions I can infer that you have some wrong facts. Go to jw.org and educate yourself.

Nope you started this... Leave a website and bring it on here..

Read genesis chapter 1

Misogynist2014:
Don't tell we what I know. Scientists are searching for water because they believe where there is water, there is life. If they find life outside earth, tell me how that doesn't affect religion?

So ur beliefs are afraid of scientific discoveries? lol.. for ur info jupitars moon io, europa and even Ganymede all possess water even mars has a thin layer of frozen methane water..

So tell me how finding life outside earth affects ur religion

Toongexa:
Yes, Nigerians are too religious but bible doesn't contradict science but it proves things before mankind even discovers them e.g. The shape of the earth which was long debated was foretold long before it was discovered by man by prophet isiah.

and the earth came into existence four days before the sun?
what is the parent star of the earth and which gravitational pull holds the earth?

Day and night already in existence four days before the sun?

what causes day and night?

Misogynist2014:
I actually knew what you were driving out when you opened this thread, now it is obvious. Take each singularly first, then take it in its billions and you will magnify God. He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and
hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion. Jeremiah 10:12 ► Like I noted, this is not new.

Ok honestly ur religious fanatism is getting into ur head.. must you bring this to the science section?

Please we are here for science related discussions not religion. please restrict ur fanatism to the religion section.

Youths reportedly burnt down Baptist Church at Gidan
Maso village in Rogo Local Government Area of Kano
State because of a Muslim man, Yahaya Joshua who
converted to Christianity.
According to VANGUARD, the youths also burned down
the Pastors residence causing the death of one of the
Pastor's daughter.
Narrating how the incident happened, President of
Tarayyar Masihiyawan Nijeria (Hausa, Fulani and
Kanuri Christians), General Ishaku Ahmed Dikko
(retd), told newsmen yesterday in Abuja, ''The Baptist
Church at Gidan Maso village of Rogo Local
Government Area in Kano State was set on fire by
youths of the village on April 1 at about 7:30p.m.
''The church and all the properties were burnt down in
the presence of the Christian community despite all
pleadings for them to stop the destruction.
''The arsonists gathered cornstalks, put them inside the
church before setting it ablaze. This made the action to
seem deliberate and for ulterior motives. The
Christians present exhibited great Christian qualities
by not taking the law into their hands by trying to stop
them by force.
''Rather than see reason, the arsonist were infuriated
which led to setting the house of the pastor, Rev Habila
Garba, ablaze as well. One of the pastor’s daughters
died of suffocation and most parts of the house
destroyed. They also attacked and wounded Bawa
Adamu and Aminu Dauda, who received machete cuts
leading to broken arms. Others received similar
wounds, but of lesser degrees.
''The cause of the barbaric act was to kill one youth,
Yahaya Joshua, who converted to Islam but later on
reverted back to Christianity. He had escaped on
learning of the plan to kill him. They therefore set the
Church and Pastor’s house on fire and went about
maiming and wounding any Christian they saw.
''The incidence was immediately reported to the Police
and the District Head at Rogo. No information has been
received about the action taken or if any arrests were
made.
''However, all the wounded know and can identify
their attackers by name since they all belong to the
same village. The Tarayyar Masihiyawan Nigeriya is
calling on the authorities to take the necessary steps to
stem or stop all these harassments and molestations of
innocent Christians for whatever reasons.
''We have the right to belong to any religion of our
choice and live anywhere in this country. We call on
the authorities at all levels to rise up to their
responsibilities to protect lives and properties of every
citizen in this country.
