Lh19:
Good day my fellow Nairalanders, ever since I was a child I've always had a question which has been on my mind for Christians.

It is well known according to the Bible that Jesus died for the sins of mankind, so I'm going to ask you guys why are we still going to hell for the sins we've committed since Jesus has already died for it?


P. S
Mind my punctuations and paragraphs abeg

Richirich713:
thought so, those particles don't literally come from nothing, they come from energy. So I actually do know my physics and u were just bluffing.

Richirich713:
so something can come from nothing and by nothing, literally nothing?

Richirich713:
it's impossible to get something from nothing and by nothing, only mentally ill people like Richard Dawkins believe this is possible., he must be on that strong weed.

benzics:
ROTFLMAO , [b]you don't feel stupid bro, you are actually stupid!

[/b]So because babies don't know they are atheists, that means they are no atheist?

Now ANSWER this.

So because animals and insects don't know they are animals and insects, does that mean they are not animals and insects? Just answer!

KingEbukasBlog:
RIP Logic and Logical Fallacies . You just murdered them

hopefulLandlord:
lol

what KingEbuka means is that

"These people aren't buying my bullsheeet strawman I'm full of, I'll rather call them ignorant because I'm not used to these kinda waters; that'll at least help me save face"

dalaman:
I've tried reading the Koran but can not understand it at all. Parts of it is just repetitive disjointed speech.

Wilgrea7:


the atheists on this thread are funny

@ hopefulLandlord nd co.

how many atheists go to the islam section to post anti-islam stuff.

most Muslims concern themselves with only the Muslim section... they don't bother most times to even scroll through the main religious section which is dominated by Christians.. they just move on to their subsection... so when you can start posting stuff in the Islam section as frequently as the normal religious section, then I'll believe you're unbiased

Franky826:

Do we really need science when we have a faithful witness, the holyspirit and a more sure word of prophecy.
Unbelievers do yourselves a favour and study the bible will you

foladara777:
How is that not common sense?? They found water deep in the soil and they assumed that further down the soil there is water...
Well, u won't recognize common sense if you see it

sonofluc1fer:
oh yes. Its so obvious.

naijadeyhia:
Yes "coincidence" strikes again so coincidentally.

Boy how doing today? Have you prayed this morning?

Blitzerz:
Was the ark physically inspired or supernaturally?

Even the physical laws u r singing about, do they support the big bang?

davtosh:
The ark of Noah found on mount Ararat exactly where the Bible says it landed after the.flood with the same measurement in size.

going into it was found compartments and evidences of once having Living things inside.


Sodom and Gomorrah towns burnt down with fire from heaven. all the town in ashes, sulphur and brimstone s as the Bible said.


please watch the videos and I know u will know the Bible is accurate and precise

Ferruccio:
I bet my right arm Niflheim mom's dying wish will be a penïs-shaped tombstone!

And also getting buried with a huge dïldo in her aids-infested pussy!

4everGod:
A lot more what? Water?

Did you miss this part of the article ?



You do know that the earth is covered by 70% water right? Now if the current estimated data suggests that the water inside the earth is the size of all the oceans on earth combined then you have 70% x 2. Now tell me you would need a lot more water than this.

4everGod:
Did i say i was discouraging you from seeking answers? The question is, what answer would satisfy you?

I have given you all available answers and even dropped Job 38 for you to swallow and digest but you still wish to ask questions similar to when an ANT would find itself in a desert and imagine that such dryness and empty land mass serves no purpose so must be removed.

You are only limited in reasoning which is why you are asking these questions. But like i said, no man or woman on this earth can give you a 100% satisfactory answer because nobody is Omniscient to have an idea of WHY.

However if we look at nature and its workings you will realize that in all the alleged imperfection everything somehow is connected to the other and serve a purpose for each other and their individual imperfections always come together at a point to produce perfection. Its like an engine with many working parts which carry out different functions but somehow all those different functions end up doing just one thing...and that is to make the vehicle move forward or backward but these parts get worn out or damaged eventually but that does not in any way disrupt the purpose and perfection they produce when working together.

Earthquakes serve their purpose as well as everything else and everyday we are discovering what these are just like this article shows and i quote

promisechuks:
did we sign any quoting contract ?

whenever you make a dumb comment, just expect me.

4everGod:
Just in!

Everyday we get hit by a barrage of people who declare that the world has absolutely no intelligent design attributable to it which means the earth was not created and neither was the universe but it just happened by chance.

Well daily scientific discoveries are proving them wrong and showing that purposeful complexity cannot be a product of Chance. Well as a Geography and regional planning graduate this article struck me as awesome.

Please to the open minded i would like you to read the Below article regarding this latest discovery about the earth and note the highlighted parts then form your opinion or conclusion.


[b]A trove of water may be hiding more than 250 miles (400 kilometers) beneath your feet.

That's where the Earth's mantle meets the crust. Geoscientists had long thought that below this transition zone (starting at 255 miles, or 410 km, deep) a water-filled mineral called brucite was unstable and so decomposed, sending water molecules flowing toward the planet's surface.

But new research suggests that before brucite — which is 50 percent magnesium oxide and 50 percent water — decomposes, it transforms into another, more stable 3D structure. The finding, detailed online Nov. 21 in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, means there's a stash of water located deeper in Earth than was previously thought.

"[This finding] was not entirely expected," said study co-author Andreas Hermann, a lecturer in computational physics at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. "[That's] because people have studied this material for decades and nobody ever thought of looking whether there would be another phase before it eventually fell apart."

Probing deep Earth

Scientists previously believed that brucite remained stable only as far as the transition zone, a 155-mile-deep (250 km) layer just below the upper mantle. In part, the mineral's structure informed this view. Brucite is a layered material in which the molecules in each layer are strongly bound to each other but weakly connected to other layers. A material like this, if squeezed with enough pressure, must undergo some kind of change. Researchers previously assumed that in response to transition zone pressure, which reaches about 200,000 atmospheres, brucite would crumble. (One atmosphere is approximately is the pressure at sea level).

Unable to probe the deep Earth directly, Hermann and his co-author, Mainak Mookherjee, a professor of geology at Florida State University, used quantum-mechanical calculations, analyzing various possible structures for brucite in deep-Earth conditions.

"This is big-data computing," said Hermann. "We create thousands of structures, optimize them all and do calculations accurate enough that if something stands out as more stable than something else, we can reliably say that it is so."

Brucite is a well-studied and relatively simple mineral. Even so, Hermann said that the key to the new calculations was ignoring existing assumptions about brucite. After several months of running various structures through their computer program, the researchers found a previously unknown phase of brucite that would be able to withstand the high pressures found in the lower mantle.

Even with this new phase of brucite, scientists are still unable to directly measure the amount of the substance in the mantle or how much water the mineral holds. However, Hermann and Mookherjee did work out the elastic properties of the new phase of brucite. Knowing this, said Hermann, seismologists may be able to detect how much brucite is in the mantle because the signatures of earthquakes differ based on the elasticity of the rock through which they travel.

Why brucite matters

Current estimates suggest that the deep Earth may hold as much water as all the oceans on the planet's surface combined. This reservoir of water, and the additional trove brucite may also hold, are vitally important to the movement of materials through the Earth. As water-containing minerals travel down through the Earth's layers, the materials eventually decompose, releasing the water that makes its way back to the surface, often through volcanic activity.

Water is essential to the recycling of minerals through volcanism and plate tectonics, because it provides the lubrication needed for the various rock materials to move past each other, as occurs in subduction zones. It also helps some materials dissolve as the move through the rock cycle. Without water, said Hermann, the planet would come to a geologic standstill. This means no new crust or soil, and a halt in volcanism; these changes could have catastrophic effects on the planet's land and atmosphere.

Aside from potentially changing scientists' understanding of water reservoirs far below the Earth's surface, Hermann said this research champions a new way of thinking about the deep Earth in general. The researchers would not have found this new phase if they had favored the accepted version, he said.[/b]

Now that you have read the article and noted the particular highlighted portions please note that the article talks about a massive oceanic pool of water inside the earth which is as good as being the size of all the oceans on the earth put together.

Now compare this with what happened in the days of Noah and the very words contained in the Bible in Genesis 7: 11

When Noah was 600 years old, on the seventeenth day of the second month, all the underground waters erupted from the earth, and the rain fell in mighty torrents from the sky.

How did the men of old who were inspired to write the scriptures know about this massive underground ocean which scientists are discovering today?

Ponder on it and let me know your conclusion.

here he goes, as the DING-DUMB boy never disappoints.

lol, don't get pained yet because you ain't seen anything yet.

promisechuks:
WTH, with all your self acclaimed intelligence, will you come into a thread as thoughtful as this and start to scream "not again... ". what for?

is something wrong with your head? do you smoke weed?

4everGod:
Did you know i was a genius at age 13? I was given awards as a gifted child and it was in the national papers. I grew with that intelligence and yes i am smart but sometimes force myself to reason slower for the benefit of others (fact).

I do not read articles, i skim through them and every word is seen, read, understood and committed to memory and this sometimes scares me.

I know me so you do not have to talk to me about being smart. You always repeat this "slave mentality" language like its supposed to make you feel real good about yourself.

Focus on the OP and if you cannot mentally cope with that then move along instead of trying to spread your delusion around like a virus.
