maybe, bleeping bitc**** and gettin drunk and sipping ice water. . the unpredictable nature and uncertainty of life after death, invokes wishful thinking and hope of a better life and a utopia. the reality is possibly that we cease to exist.

it is simply a poor target to inflict religious generated violence and conflict.

at least he acknowledges that his prayers don't work! besides why didn't God stop it?

the poor guy could have being hallucinating, also he had Christian roots which still had some studs in him, of course he think of a christian heaven where impotent fools sing, not a muslim one with virgins. his cultural interpretation of colours in the light of GOOD and BAD. many societies have different views on what colours represent. besides, Hindus have very different near-death experiences from Christian ones. all try to drag people into their beliefs and abysses.

RONALDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! world best at it aGAIN!!

he was a bloody thirsty autocrat, with a tribal agenda. he should burn in his grave! his irrational actions set 30 yrs back.

Some of the prophecies in Daniel have already occured.

four hundred after the events had occurred, the book was written. quite convenient1

holotee:
Abeg which set of christians have that belief ? God will have to use humans to change the world and not come down to make the changes himself.

that guy had messed things so badly that he seeks man to correct his mistakes.

GODSON2009:
@posterplease refrain from making sweeping general statements and generalisations about a demographic, also you seem to either be part of the political class or benefitting from the loot or else you wouldnt feel this personal about an upright and brave man of GOD who has decided to stand up and be counted. however commenting on your particular comment i guess the question is why shouldnt he be involved??

apart from the fact that leaders of faith wield a lot of influence in the life of their adherents in whatever faith,they have a stake in the society in which they live in because they are responsible to a lot of people.
also,even in biblical times in the old testaments,there are many accounts of prophets of GOD confronting kings,queens and eminent people even at the risk of death on their unGODLY behavious and actions.
i am sorry but it is these sort of"GOD DEY" attitudes from nigerians like you that has allowed the status quo to remain like this since independence.
and one fact i know is that many centuries from today,when ever his name is mentioned in the history books posterity will judge him as one of these who stood up on the side of the masses against the corruption and looting

of what use would it have if it is impossible of man to do things right.

Christians, generally believe that humans are incapable of creating a perfect society and only the Hand of God can create such a paradise. why then is Bakare on a vain journey? if he is seeking for perfection, he should jump into the lagoon or shoot himself and see the heaven he has always talked about.

with earthquakes acting up and hitting anywhere, he predicts one hitting Nigeria and quickly makes a precondition that prayer may prevent it. so if it then happens, he is right, but if it doesn't, prayer worked. SMART FOOL.

i laugh too. nothing is impossible, but still this is a mammoth project which would eventually need support and cooperation from the federal govt. why must his face appear on everything, he intends to reap popularity for 2011. this project is beyond him.

there is nothing known about Jesus, except what is contented in the Gospels. Mark, who relied on hearsay, wrote his about 70 years after Jesus died. the writer of the Gospel of Matthew made a photocopy of Mark's work and modified it to suit his targeted audience (Jews). Luke comes along to republish the first two and then impute his cultural understanding into it. With numerous muted contradictory sources.
there is absolutely no reasonable connection between the Old testament and the New testament, and why is the Apocrypha excluded from the Protestant bible. Christianity is simply selective.

BULLSHIT talk! the righteous aren't saved by their work and the evil aren't condemned by theirs, its there the admission that the bible is wrong!

fear draws people to Christianity rather than the love of God.

on the issue of faith, this question naturally arises, can knowledge be acquired by faith? faith is a mental condition to treat certain assertions as facts. could knowledge could got from assuming it to be true? sounds similar to superstition. reason and science are the only paths to progress. all religions have belief as their foundation and end up with numerous destination and funny comedies as doctrines. faith is only a chain to tie one down.
in the Iran-Iraq war, the Ayatollah gave cheap plastic keys to over a thousand youths, rather than arms to fight the Iraqis. promising them that these cheap keys would open Paradise. faith!

it is not a question of function, but origin and it is inconceivable to think an entity in the sky imposes moral rules which in no practical manner does it affect him. morality is a necessity in every society.

Morality is always subjective and varies from culture to culture. it could be based on practical necessity like incest, or dogmatic assertions, nevertheless, its foolish to conclude that morality originates from a divine source, when they are all inconsistent in content. behaviour considered as moral in the past is sometimes unacceptable today. e.g child marriage.
an atheist's moral code would centre on what is beneficial or harmful to him or her.

davidylan:
You seem to be confused . . .

if moral codes originate from humans = you will get different moral codes for different human societies.

HOWEVER if moral codes originate from a divine source = you will get different moral codes for different human societies because (as you acknowledged) everyone else believes in a separate disimilar divine source.

For instance, the moral codes for arabs in Africa, middle east and asia are virtually the same . . . where they all a homogenous people from whom their moral codes originated or is this a direct result of having a common religion?

Moral codes for christians in Niger, Congo, Sweden and China are very similar . . . are we all the same people too?

you havent proven that point. All you've done is restate it like a broken record.

What has war crimes to do with this by the way?  Is that also a "moral" code or a secular convention based on shared principles?

unlike in the past, warfare is thought to be subjected to certain reasonable rules,despite its violent nature. the fact that it is enshrined in a statute or international resolution, does not imply that it was not born of morality. it need not be unwritten.
if morals are from different divine sources, doesn't it back the presumption that it is man-made.

nature is wasteful, why don't you get concerned about menstration and the flushed out eggs.

this is just many of those dogmatic fellows out there. he is a bleeping blind bat, what does he know how about christianity?

genocides and mass murders were supported and tacitly backed the merciful God ( stark contradiction ). killings committed in the name of war are not different from murders. no killing is justified.

always creating an atmosphere of fear and reducing people to zombies. he should have prayed for god not to have killed innocent people.

What has the disease called atheism offered anybody?

agnosticism is a silly excuse for irrationality!
all those suicide bombing in the name of camel riding pedophiles and sodomites and stupiD allah. the bloody crusades?

generally, religion is a product of frustration and deception.

every place on this planet has suffered from this stigma, disease called religion. it offers no good.

Desmond Tutu is not a rare priest that promotes and supports homosexual behaviour. are this churches this desperate? religion will always adapt to the social correctness of the day. no surprise if that closet bisexual Chris Oyakilome comes and preach JESUS AND HIS 12 DISCIPLINES WERE ,

do they want to LOSE MONEY?

as long as the results do not favour them, there will always be controversies and allegation of electoral malpractice.

to some certain extent, i agree that religion has some relevance, by creating subtle rules that create subtle rules which bind a society together, but in every religion, there is the disease of irrationality which transforms a religion into a monster. blind faith and beliefs and extremely gullible people are the unwanted products.
