Atheist spotted!

The same way nobody can explain how Jesus fed 5000 people with 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes, turned water into wine is the reason why you can't explain this ark can't float on water.

Really! Actually feeding 5000 never happened and if one were to bother himself explaining there are believe able theories like the one below which is better than manufacturing bread and fish out of thin air.

Some years ago, a theologian (whose name I can not recall or find at this moment) posited that the feeding of the 5000 happened differently than we had assumed. He said that rather than a physical miracle, Jesus had performed a spiritual miracle. It begins with the apostles asking around for food to feed everyone with. If you recall the story, they found only 10 fishes and 5 loaves of bread. In a crowd of 5000 men plus an unknown number of women and children. Jesus was teaching on a hill outside of town – it’s not like the crowd was made of people who just happened to be passing by – although there would be some of those. But mostly people had deliberately come out to hear Jesus teach. The problem wasn’t that every single mother in town just spaced out and forgot to pack lunches for everyone. There was food in that crowd. People just didn’t want to share it. And it wasn’t just selfishness – it was self-protection as well. What it the fellow next to you didn’t have any food? He might try to take yours by force if he figures out you have it.

So consider that. Jesus had just spent the day teaching people his message of love. Of care for enemy and neighbor alike. And out of a crowd of many thousand no one would offer what they had to Jesus to feed the crowd. Jesus responded by taking the little bit that had been shared, offering it to God and passing it out. And apparently those present followed this lead and pulled out their own suppers. Not only did people share – they became so careless that they left baskets of food behind when they were done. According to this theologian, this was a spiritual miracle – people moved to share what they had and discovering abundance where they had presumed scarcity.

Lol, you are just looking for trouble, but I really love atheist, they are extremely entertaining & ask some reasonably questions. You need to be very deep religiously & well learned to counter them

The below is for the so called deep religiously and we'll learned to counter.

I didn't want to get into Noah's ark story with it's obvious flaws that has been overflogged on cyberspace but this one you guys are hammering on one error of mentioning water creatures by that guy . With that amount of flood water, salt water and freshwater will mix, making the body of water too salty for freshwater animals and less salty for animals of the ocean. This already is potential hazard and will kill off most water animals.

Did the ark also carry animals like the beaver, wood pecker, termites and other wood eating animals ? What were these wood loving/eating animals feeding on? These animals can destroy wood and potential danger to the ark? What about Rhinoceros that get angry and smash at anything in its way, possibly smashing the Ark's wood?

What about the carnivores animals? What were they feeding on?

Based on the technology of that era, how did Noah and his three sons manage to chop off huge timber? How did they carry these timber/logs of wood? How did they join them together?

Where did all the water that submerged the highest mountain come from and where did it evaporate to?

Bloody fool. Only land animals and birds boarded the ark

Too many questions with only ridiculous/zero answers given! Only logical answer is to refer to the story as an allegory!

Thought NHIS is there to cover for things like this If that is not working I strongly advise he gets his PFA involved for an upfront withdrawal from his RSA. Given the circumstances they should expedite payment. As an ASP he's entitled to some good cash from there cuz he needs to live and regain his sight for his family.

Please don't make me laugh. ...NHIS only cover paracetamol types of sickness, ante-natal and child delivery issues. Anything asides these na OYO!

Just imagine! Alexreports you messed up for this!

this can not be Alex reports . Where are the contestants for the beauty pageants you usually post?

With the level of mismanagement, ineptitude and inefficiency that these agencies and even the Ministry have exhibited in recent past, also with the handling of the failed Nigeria project; I will strongly recommend a total review of their operation and activities. At the moment, I can tell you for free that nobody checks or audits these agencies and you cannot be the judge in your own case as there is tendency to compromise. We deserve better as a nation and it starts with total restructuring of not just our country but the aviation industry.

Actually audit is done (at least for one of the aforementioned agencies I am familiar with) but not the comprehensive type you will expect.

For us to have a robust industry, distant from what we are presently experiencing; there is need to move agencies like the NCAA, AIB, NIMET,NAMA, and FAAN from the oversight of the ministry of Aviation to the presidency for direct monitoring and to avoid the overt interference of the ministry in these agencies .

I agree 100%

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, says Nigerian workers should be clapping for the Buhari administration because it has done well for them.

This is silly! When there are vacancies, created by either promotion, retirement, resignation or even death, someone has to fill those positions even if it's the usual unadvertised appointments to positions in civil service. It is of no benefit to the FG or the civil servants if the position remains vacant as nothing will work well in that department. So why are you making it seem a big deal Mr.Ngige?

bros stop to dey lie... Trading is not easy. People with forex knowledge know this.. Even to master Japanese candle stick patterns is another task on its own. I saw what her boyfriend uploaded few weeks ago and I have screenshot. It was a hacked credit card account.

I am no fool.

Basic Buying and selling as it's done here! here or the aboki changing dollars. Not trading on exchange. Not everyone has time for Forex,TA, FAs, Love Machine stick patterns e.t.c

I don't doubt this. Infact this is highly possible given how desperate people can be. However this does not disprove the fact that basic buying and reselling of Bitcoin( and other digital currencies) to customers ain't profitable. It's not really that hard! Buy from customers at N340 to N345 per dollar and resell to customers at N365 per dollar. Tweak the price a little bit when Bitcoin falls or goes high shikena. What do you need candlestick patterns and Japanese patterns for?

Quorax:
ekwa... Same bitcoin that has refused to move for several months now?

You don't know, so you will never know. Even $50 movement upwards or downwards is enough for this Bitcoin sellers to maximize profit. Stay there and be waiting for ATH of $20000!

She has been featured here on Nairaland before but una don forget! Bad Belle people already castigating her. Remember, the slay mama that was frying garri for a living that made front page? Yeah that's her! Asides blogging, She's also into buying and selling of Bitcoin which I know can be profitable enough to buy those whips. If you know, you know.

Keep calling her, Yahoo Yahoo na u Sabi!

If only he would go there by road...

Double post!

The private university I referred to is related to madonna. Why are those people frustrating students

Are you going to be paying the school fees of the new school you are planning to port to? If not, kindly stick to where you are and let your parents foot the bill and every other bill. Play the good child, school is just four years and you are done. You can start acting irreligious once you are 100% independent.

I always love the mental gymnastics Christians use when it comes to the story of Noah's ark and the flood, the funny thing is the story is stolen from the Sumerian myths and adapted to suit the Hebrew religion which came much later. Nothing wrong though as it is the practice of newer Religions to do copy and paste of the myths, beliefs and practices of older religion and the current dominating religion of the environment and then pose with it as the best ever

Back to the mental gymnastics I will like to hear on Noah's ark and the flood story:

1. If water (mostly salt water) covered the earth to the extent of covering the highest mountaintops
a. Where did all the water come from and where did it go?
b. The oxygen level becomes depleted and everywhere becomes icy chilly cold, how did Noah, his family and the animals survive this?

2. Based on the technology of that era, how did Noah and his three boys cut, saw and prepare large number of timber to be used for this huge structure? How did they join all the wood together considering the limited technology? Or was it glue? How long did they (four men) take to build the ark from cutting of trees to joining the last piece of timber? 1 year, 5 years or 100 years? There about 9 different wood eating animals, there could be more, what where they feeding on the duration of the flood? What about insects like termites? Won't their activities which include chewing away wood and making wood to rot affect the structure of the wood used and make the ark sink?

One could go on with more questions on this Ark and flood that will require mental gymnastics from Christians. The honest response (may be the best) should be the story is an allegory! Case Closed! There is no point defending a fairytale story that does not hold water when simple basic questions are asked and no convincing response has been given for years.

Kkk777:
Are you this dump? Can't you read that the plain has burnt badly before the arrival of the firefighters?

In a country where government is OK. There should be standby firefighter in national airport.

Go to YouTube, you will see a situation in which fire fighters would have positioned themselves before a plain that caught fire in midair lands.

I would not descend low to your level to start throwing insults like an untrained human.

There are standby firefighters and firetrucks at the airport, I work at one of the Nigerian International airports and quite aware of how poised the fire service people(and other aviation agencies) are for emergency.

Kkk777:

And you think this doesn't happen in Nigeria Airport too?

awoofawoo:
So how the situation got to that stage that some other aircrafts were affected?

No where in the report did they state that other aircrafts were affected and even if it did just for argument sake, you have zero idea how fire can spread fast especially in places where objects loaded with combustibles (jet fuel) are even while it is raining. Fire doesn't respect anyone.

awoofawoo:
And no firetrucks insight..... What a country?

ITbomb:
No Airport Firefighters or Safety equipment

[s]If you ask the dullardrous what is his achievements after 3 years, you start hearing Agriculture, Anchor borrowers, fertilizer, fadama, home grown dada on repeat[/s]

There are firetrucks/firefighters in the second and fourth pictures. Stop using phones with tiny screen!

Trust me, Nigerian Intl Airports (at least Lagos and Abuja) are one of the very few places in Nigeria that actually have active firefighting service.

Doesn't look like madness to me. More like a family practicing some weird sort of Religion/philosophy.

Do number 4 often! People forget this most times. Repeat every month!

Do number 4! Rinse and repeat often!

What is wrong with you useless lazy Nigerian bloggers? Why do you guys like posting the same picture 6 to 7 times just to pass a message? The same thing with your text, the content of one paragraph (usually the introduction) is repeated 2 to 3 times before the main body which is equally empty!

Until I see the credit alert I refuse to believe the minimum wage scam.

I thought he'll use this opportunity to apologise to us Nigerians and Nigeria for his cluelessness that has led the nation into serious situation, all he was talking about is the party.

Nigeria shall be great no matter what

It's a PDP convention for crying out loud! What else he is supposed to address if not ''party matters''.

Followers are now being celebrated?

More followers means more advert money. If you know, you know!

Blame the influx of Libyan illegal immigrant returnee to Benin without gainful employment and the already bad state of the Nigerian economy.

Hello, are you still on amazon mturk? How do I get accepted please? or do you have an account to spare? thanks

Yes,I am still on Amazon Turk. You simply need to register and hope for acceptance. Yes, I have a spare account but it's not for free nor sale.

Buhari is loved home and Abroad.
Check out the way Chinese are hailing him on the streets of China.

Stop lying! That picture was taken in Morocco!

It was always hard for me to believe the whole cross dressing antics meant he is gay. In this age of the more Instagram, Twitter and Facebook followers you have , the more money you can make.

No one follows boring people on social media, that's why people like Bobrisky keep having followers. The more followers you have, the more you can charge for adverts on your social media page.

If you don't understand all I have said , you probably are one of those who don't understand how people make money online.
