ijawkid: I know that persons who hate God can still exhibit natural qualities of goodness or some kinda morality.....

Altruism is at work there.....

Bill gates can give billions to charity ,but that same bill gates might not understand or know if homosexuality or for-nication is bad...

That's my point....

Well their are christians who are guilty of that as well(not true/real christians though

ijawkid: The issue of morality most times becomes subjective to atheist...because they have no standards to keep up with......

Their standards are correct princinples

ijawkid: Let us ask logicboy if he understands that sexual immorality or homosexuality is a sin.....

Ask Him.....

Logicboy03,come defend yourself

tavon: You cannot blame a parent for everything a child turns out to be. Self esteem like anything else is a belief. To be exact a belief of ones self but at the end of the day it's still a belief just like religion.

To make my pount am going to use religion. Just because you are brought up in a religious home don't mean you are not going to turn out to be an atheist at the age of 30.

Infact most atheist are from highly religious home

shymexx: Those people are weaklings - they don't need therapy, they just need to know who they are...

Once you understand yourself and know your capabilities, you shouldn't have self-esteem issues...

Until one discovers who he his,he is bound to suffer from self esteem.
Even if parents keep saying positive things to them it will get to a point where the kids will say '' I BELIEVE,I BELIEVE,I BELIEVE,I BELIEVE, [size=13pt]I DONT BELIEVE"
[/size]

abiL: Nope. If plays a vital role, but your upbringing does not define you.

But some people find it difficult to stop blaming their parents, and start taking responsibilities for their own actions.

Ditto

shymexx: Yeah, it might affect the children until they get to a certain age. However, once you grow past that, and know who you're and your self-worth - you should outgrow that...

Upbringing plays a role but it doesn't fully define who you become socially/psychologically as an adult...

You're the architect of your own reality..

Taking responsibilty for ones life and future,your comment made 100% sense

seedord247: I think its from the parents.

For i.e.. Check yoruba kids... Hardly you see a yoruba kid that doesnt know how to cursed bcus thats what their parents used in bringi g them up.

Check igbo kids... Hardly you see a igbo boy that does not know how to lie or steal from age 8. Thats why you see them turning drug pushers when they grow up.

Check benin and calabar kids..... Being a frnd of this tribe.... They hardly discipline their kids if they do something wrong.. They give thier kids freedom of speech in family matters while they are very young, their folks even do some nasty things in front of thier kids.... Thats why you see calabars and benin girls all over the street of lagos asking for pay as you f**ck.

Your post made zero sense to me

greatgod2012: I am not rulling out d personality factor, but i believe one builds his/her personality on d belief one has about him/herself.

I agree with everything except this,our personality is based on the discovery of self

dayokanu: I think almost everything in life is on the personality

Blaming upbringing and parent is IMO a cheap cop out

We have siblings who have exactly opposite behaviours. one responsible one a completely irresponsible individual.

Most people from the age of 10 above know whats right from whats wrong. So your decisions are left to you.

We have ppl born and raised by Priest who turned into prostittutes and drug dealers while we have ppl raised by Junkies who became excellent individuals

I cant agree less,it boils down to taking full responsibility for oneself.
Your post made maximum sense

[quote author=Missy_B]It's not much a fault of the individual as it is of his environment.
You're a product of your environment. Your environment mostly determines your view, you act accordingly, and you are, to an extent, your actions.

A person that grew up listening to his parents call him a ne'er-do-well, will never see anything good in himself, and will eventually never do anything good unless he changes his environment, ideas and action.[/quote]The responsibility then lies with the individual

As often as I need to.
Besides if you can count the number of times you pray,IMHO you have not prayed enough(I mean communion with God)

pastormustwacc,thumbs up,you made maximum sense.

ijawkid: This is not religion we are talking about..

We are talking about Gods standards.....

Lets be frank here(I'm a christian,I know God exists,and I dont agree with athiest on this one)

I'm talking about moral uprightness.You dont have to be a christian to make honesty,integrity etc a policy.
Bill gate is an agonist and he has done more charity work than any christian I know.

This guys understand right principles and they make it their motto.


My point is simple,you dont have to be a religious person to live morally upright(uprightness in Nigeria is defined by it consistution)

Elebiju: ''''''shakes k2039...rolls fist and hits hard''''''no be u them dey FK for that warri video Wey dey moan ..power enter...u come dey form virgin for here abeg commot ur loose labia for my screen idiota virgin nko flagyl ni ahan una dey think say guys dey mumu?

Your whole post makes zero sense,if I wasnt a virgin,would I have made that comment of mine.


Frankly,I'm proud that I'm still a virgin and I dont intend to lose it anytime soon.

A woman that hit me would cease to be my wife instantly but ofcourse I can never raise my hand against my wife.

ItsModella: @OP, your statistics is rather very shady.

Pink is actually one of my worst colors. To answer your question, pink is the color society has always attached to females right from their births. When parents/people shop for little kids, they more often than not buy pink stuff for the girls and blue stuff for the boys. This is a true gender stereotype. But for some reason, as boys grow up, the develop a wider spectrum of colors while girls develop a less wide one and prefer the red/pink spectrum. I think it's because we are brought up to believe that pink is feminine.

I only changed my font color because you had a issue with it

omiobo: As our faces are different so our thoughts are. The world will be so boring if everybody acts and reason this same way. The beauties of this world lies in our differences.

Frankly you are right(if you have two people with thesame idea,then one of them is not needed.
So it's all about valuing the differences)

[quote author=Mynd_44]It is the height of ignorance to think that a woman catches for fun. You people always sound like kids when you start talking like all women are one big emotional bodybag.
The reasons women cheat are the same with why men cheat. Who told you women have to be emotionally involved when they have sex? Hell the woman might just need to get a good fûck and she decided to go for the first man or she can keep one to help her regularly[/quote]I agree with evrything you wrote.
People making excuse for cheating,it's laughable.

Logicboy03: Agreed. Just waiting for the theists to comment....

I'm a theist,and I have commented.

Frankly moral uprightness has to do with the individual,its not just religion alone

SAVIOR

Personaly for me I cant.
I call it child abuse(my own opinion though and I'm entitled to it)
She is 2/3 of his age(ten years is to much for me)

Are you forgetting that the people that they
cheat with are men

Women cheat for the same reason men do


People cheat because they suck

That should be based on the individuals discretion

Spare the rod,destroy the kid.

My mum flogged hell out of me,even though she was my greatest enemy then(my most hated human on earth then was my mum)

Almost 22 years old now,looking back I will say she did shape my future and destiny,and I'm grateful for the discipline she has instilled in me(we are best of friends now).

Frankly if she had not flogged me when I was wrong,trust me I wont be the good boy I'm now.


You know no matter how much you discipline some kids they will still remain bad,like the case of your neigbour(the question is this,was discipline instilled in them from their infancy or she started flogging them after their behaviors got out of hand)
I know some kids are born rebel and their is little you can do to change it.

All I can say to your neigbour is that if sticks dont break them,word will(and if words doesnt,then she will have to work on their thinking and psychology)

well atheist believe in right living,principles and they take full responsibility for their lifes and actions(not involving God).

So I think atheist are more morally upright than theist,they understand the law governing the universe and they use it to their advantage.

Justypeters: @k2039 i am only seeking opinions to show him what people think about his situation ok.Just say what u feel about the topic.

I kind of already made myself clear,read my second sentence

I have a feeling that friend is Justypeters(the OP himself).

My advise just look for someone else.

Visit the vatican

Insanity

Since their is no link,your article is not any different from trash

The marriage recognised by the bible is the traditional marriage(the parents have given their blessings)

So,I see nothing wrong in living together and having se.x with your spouse after the traditional wedding.

Personaly for me,I dont intend to do any church wedding,just traditional wedding and them court(registry just to make things legal)

So it makes zero sense then to me to agree that white wedding is necessary to live together afterall white wedding is out of my plan,so does that mean my spouse wont live with me because I didnt do the white wedding.
