First I am not a fan of the present govt. But for crying out loud what is the purpose of this write up?

What does a president calling other president portray? Nothing much. Most of the far right and far left government hardly ever talk to each others

The greatness of every people or nation is lack of depency of others to make a mark.

We as a nation will make it . This starts with both the leadership and followership and not external force no matter how great the forces might be. Cos they will claim they made you out of nothing and can un-make you

Have you travelled to Ghana?

can you compare Nigeria to Ghana on

Roads (small but well maintain and you can drive for 4 hours without pot hole)
Electricity ( confirm 247)
Water (clean and drinkable)
Do you know that in Ghana in open market they display currency on top of table like tomato so you walk up to them and change your money to other currency.

many many more

Sorry , I was in Ghana some year back and there was power outage for a greater part of the day.
They even have a name for power outage..dumsor.... Google." Dumsor in Ghana"

For the roads, Google "bad roads in Ghana" and give me your opinions.

Religion is like slow poison, and just as poison is killing your body, in the same way religion is killing your soul.

There is only one difference: religion is masquerading as medicine, and while you think that it’s there for your benefit, it is secretly killing you. And before you become aware of it, religion has turned you into a lifeless being.

But unless we stop having an authority tell us what to do or what not to, we will never be free to live the way we deep down want to live. And unless we are free, we will never be happy and find peace with ourselves and the world.

I tried reading through your painful narrative but found it difficult to get through.

You mention some disadvantages of religion but fail to mention some advantage of religion
So permit me to say that this narrative is biased and skewed to your distortion.

First Christianity has been active in the big question of MORALITY .. a big hole in your narrative , agnostic and atheist arguement have never answer that big gap. How can one argue several laws against killing animal foetus but condone abortion? So many questions begging for answers on the morality crisis.

Secondly 60 per cent of Nobel prize winners are Christians. Proving synergy between Christianity and Science. Guess your narrative does not not point out those silent facts as it is one directional.
You made mention of violence in Religion... True..in fact I agree some of this. But pray.. can you convienenetly say science has not have his fair share of violence. The nuclear weapon armament, the Covid , Ebola etc are all products of scientific endeavours all gone wrong . Or they are all religious bigots that fuel it.

I have much to say but I will appreciate if you explain the pros and con and leave it to your readers to decided.

Cheers

So before the emergence of bitcoin there was no kidnapping? So kidnapping started yesterday when bitcoin came out? How many Nigerians use dark web? Majority of people on dark web are Americans, why haven't they ban it? Before bitcoin became popular in 2016, were there no fraud & dark web? Na through bitcoin our leaders dey embezzle our money?

Who will produce drug? In a country where ASUU is always on strike?

Your head is obviously empty, no point wasting time on u.

Thank God that CBN came out with the same explanation that tallies with my point showing my head is not empty like yours.
https://www.nairaland.com/6404471/cbn-why-banned-cryptocurrency-nigeria
Note that the dark web was mentioned here.
You know better now.

Show me your evidence and stop this beer parlour arguement showing how your head is empty and everything goes.

Of course there was bitcoin before the kidnapping but your rubbish head as you want to be called cannot accept the fact that it has been taken over by empty skulls like you and also the dark web operators.

It is as simple as this, drugs were created for medicinal purpose but empty skulls and criminals took advantage of the loop holes.

Stop wasting your time, go and look for how you can retrieve your bitcoin wisely rather than engage in out of point arguement

Work is on my mind not some irrelevant chatting .so don't bother replying

https://news.bitcoin.com/report-bitcoin-overtakes-gold-in-the-u-s-as-the-4th-most-popular-investment-vehicle/

Bitcoin has overtaken Gold as the fourth most popular investment in america.

Why una no get sense for this country??

Your moniker says a lot about you.

Na you get sense past abi? Mr Rubbish poster

Why do you continually wallow in your dirty nonsensical thinking

You forgot to mention drugs on the economical index .

Why did the CBN ban bitcoin? it was used in the dark web that is not traceable like the Gold you mentioned.

When kidnapping is on you keep on blaming the govt for lack of proactivity rather than blocking the kidnappers source of revenue .

Guess you don't understand what goes on the Dark web... Or do you understand the concept at all?

You wanna make money at all cost

The day I understood how this bitcoin gain traction was the day I made up my mind not to engage cos it is a matter of time when the whole western world will gang up against it.

Have you heard of the Dark Web and what fuels it activity? It is scàry and not for the faint hearted.

Bitcoin is the currency that operates within the Dark Web

CNN calls her a BLACK WOMAN rather than an AFRICAN.,.
https://edition.cnn.com/2021/02/05/business/wto-nigeria-ngozi-okonjo-iweala/index.html

Some people on NAiraland are calling her a Delta Igbo rather than a Nigerian

Tribaiism is a subset of Racism.

Both should be discouraged.

Latest. Seems CNN heard my complain and made appropriate changes

School curriculum is not equal to life curriculum.

Excellencuy in life is linked to destiny and how best you make use of opportunity that comes your way.

Just have to be prepared ahead

Many presidents ,CEOs , influencers never top their class but still manage to get ahead in life.

I did not top my class, was your a bit above normal average student i.e amongst the top 10 but I am not doing bad in life.
My aspirations are met with God help


Met an A class student in my university who was as that time a principal of a secondary school

My brain found it very difficult to process.
After the banter, I said a short prayer, God should bless this guy.

Just go to bed, bloody RELIGITARD!

Mr young English lecturer, ASUU don call off strike

sesan85:
Dude go to bed, you're delusional.

The beer parlour arguement have abruptly stopped SEBI??

you have not said any coherent statement backed up with fact and experience but seems drunk on your bile against the church.

So happy to expose that and don't expect any response from me .

Cherioo

sesan85:
Because "shop, work market event" (you're not fighting with commas, are you?) aren't places where so-called "miracles" are performed like crusade grounds, you utterly credulous, dim-witted sub-slowpoke!

First, it is a miracle that Africans are not dropping dead in those places where I am struggling with commas.
I guess you see it as miracle that you weren't affected abi.

Just mention church, your mind goes GA a ga bring anything to the mud typical of a mind filled with rebellion against all evidence.

One day , you will know the truth , the truth beyond your tiny mind, and you will set free. It is not for me to do so, if God be God as we Tout him to be then He alone will have to prove himself to you with consequences.


I am happy to be called a sheep as earlier stated.in earlier message. That is what Jesus called us.

Seriously I appreciate the compliment
Take it a step further please and call me the chief of sheeple


Pray, those that are not sheep are called stubborn goat. I ask that you take it as a great compliment

sesan85:
Shut up, gullible, pea-brained religitard. That you clowns needed face masks on your crusade grounds alone says it all. Covid-19 has been ravaging the world for over a year now and your scammers called pastors with their so-called miracles have been unable to cure it. Bloody sheeple

So why is a cabbage sized and made brain answering me in this manner.
You have gone to public place like shop, work market event where the virus lurks but no mentions about your gullibility but once church is mention, Choas from hell is unleased?

Na wa o

sesan85:
Oga, can "blood of Jesus" protect against Covid or not?

It can protect.in my case
Let me ask you a simple question before I explain much to you.
It worked for me without face mask

I am assuming you are either an atheist or a Muslim becos my explanation won't matter to you.
Your answer will tailor my question before my question.

Stay bless brother

Kobojunkiee:
The person who answered admitted that China did not create the virus, but instead engineered it to suite its purpose. To create, as God did, is to in fact constitute something out of next to nothing for building blocks, which is what God did. What humans instead do is engineer a product using already available building blocks, something completely different from what God is said to have done in Genesis. Not even China is able to do what God is said to have done in Genesis.
That said, I see you never really answered the questions I asked in my post there.
Where in the Bible do you get this claim of yours from?
If I get it clearly, you are suggesting instead that Good mutated create Evil?
Who created/defined SIN that in turn caused this claimed mutations of yours?
Or did Sin exist outside of/beyond God?
But a knife is not evil... it is a tool which can be used either for good or for evil. Same applies to viruses... an organism which can serve as a tooll to be used either for good or evil. To declare the knife evil is not admit a level of ignorance in terms of what is good and what is evil. Same with the assumption that viruses are evil.
Stop trying to throw God under the bus for your ignorance.
Scientists do not create... they engineer or manufacture but never actually create anything. Only God can do that! The lies you have been told are plenty and they continue to flow from every statement you make.
Stop gorging on the lies that your so-called men of god feed you... open your eyes to the truth that has been before you from even before you were born.

This is getting tiresome and frustrating as you are adamant on philosophical things which leads to no where.
I am not getting any teaching or guidance from any pastor but from my bible. If you feel that I am , pls quote or make reference to such.
You did throw your god under the bus by saying He created the virus and a lot of response were against your theology.

For the sake of scholarly advise , there is a difference between CREATE and MAKE. God create the earth with all he abidance of materials need for the making stage. Human distorted it by the sin factor. God CREATED metals, human being MADE the knife. A man can use the knife for cutting vegetable (good thing) or use it for evil things( e.g killings).
The question is WHO CREATED THE KNIFE USED TO KILL,

Using your thinking God created or made the knife?
No sorry, my biblical teaching ( not pastoral) is contrary to your logi

From your logic , it was your God that created since He created everything, then you turn to me and claim I threw him under while I get the feeling that you almost threw your into jail.

This is hilarious and not worth mentioning as you have wrongly twisted the word of God to suit your position.

Good luck with that

sesan85:
Oga go and sleep. Can your so-called "blood of Jesus" protect you sheeple against Covid or not?

Guy , I attended several of those crusade while placing for God protection.
NOTHING happened and I am at rest (not sleeping) as your evil hear wanted to engineer. So sorry NTORt!!!!

It did it work and please whenever you are in a public place don't seek for protection you hear.

All this people who claim scientistism and philosophy but empty inside sef.

Kobojunkie:
So, from your summation, sin created Viruses meaning that God is not in fact the only creator that there is? Wow... So there were other creators in the mix?

So God lied when He claimed Himself the only creator?
So God only created the good things...someone else created the evil things?

Who is the someone else who is able to create other things that God cannot,according to you, create?

So when It was said of Jesus Christ that through Him ALL things were created, that was a lie?

Man! Many of you are really filled with lies in the name of God.... How can anyone who truly knows God not realize from the onset that God created all things...good and evil...and it wass all good?

Stop listening to those eejits you call pastors and teachers...instead read the darn book for yourself so you can learn what is in fact written in it.

Guy ,calm down and listen.

God did not create the virus, someone answered you brilliantly, China created the virus. Not GOD abi didn't come across it.

Everything God created was good. The mutation from our selfish desire that is deep rooted in sin cause this disaster.
Like the analogy of the knive I have was the answer to this. The manufacturer created the knife but selfish desire metarmo phoses the knife into an evil thing. That selfish desire is sin rooted

Guy,maybe your god create the virus, and fed you with the misconception but my Almighty Father cannot be attributed to that.

What lies, who is been lied to? The facts are there, China scientist created the virus and you had the guts to attributed to your God?

Stay in your lane with this your god ooo

sesan85:
Lol, why do people who've covered their bodies with so-called "blood of Jesus" put on face mask on a crusade ground that has also been covered with the "blood of Jesus"? Seems "blood of Jesus" can't protect Christians against Covid. Bunch of utterly brainwashed sheeple.

We are enjoined by the bible to obey the government of our days.


There are so many crusade held without face mask and seriously nothing happen remeber Shiloh?

Your swipe does not affect any Christian but show your high was up heart

Kobojunkie:
Yes, God created man and viruses as well..yes, in His wisdom, He created them all. God will definitely not die.

Your God created virus? Not in my bible

And God created,,, and He saw it was good.


Virus came as a result of the effect of sin.
What was meant for good was turn for evil.
What God created was for good and not for harm.

It is like a knife meant for cutting bread was used as a murder weapon.
The knive manufa cturer will be surprised if you accused him of creating a murder weapon

Pelecius:
I was thinking in such direction with your initial questions but it was not just clear (worded clearly)

If you've read my comments in this thread, you should see that you don't need to ask me such questions as I definitely showed why the secular dating should not be taken really seriously.

Just some points;
1.Million year old fossils are not carbon dated. So it's not about carbon dating here, it's other forms such as Ur - Pb, K - Ar, etc.

2.Again, Carbon dating has nothing to do about the age of earth.

So I'd advise you not talk about Carbon dating when age of earth or million of years is implied.


I gave few reasons why other forms of radiometric dating cannot be trusted and since Carbon dating gives age that's still beyond the Biblical Chronology, there are evidence which points that such "ages" flunctuate also apart from the factthat it also relies on some unfounded assumptions.

By the way;
I'm a lover of God and lover of the field of studies which tries to understand how he sustain and uphold the universe science)

Clarification accepted. Let do some scholarly talk.

According to the article
Fossils of this snake family did not appear again until the geological time period known as the Miocene – between 23 and 5 million years ago.

'As the global climate began to cool again after the Miocene, the pythons once again disappeared fromEurope, said Dr Smith

Secondly, from the inference i believed you were using dating (i.e carbon or any form ) to explain this defined age.

Can be kindly explain how they got the age.
Thanks in advance

Pelecius:
I tried deciding this but I couldn't

That wasn't the reply expected so it will be ignored.totally flat

For a start, I read Physics as major and the similar questions were thrown at my lecturer but no answer.
Carbon dating 14 have serious flaws and cannot be used for more than 20,000 years. I think is far less.
It is the fair" we have around but always have it inherent flaws. How old is the earth? How old are bones before decomposing.
Secondly water has been known to affect carbon dating, another serious flaws.

My initial questions are to determine if you could provide answers at the lowest stratum but seems I was roudly disappointed.
I guess I stay I'm my inquisitive lane while you stay on yours
Another thing please You got no case on the church

Pelecius:
Well, the reason I go with the relative dating is that it is easier and handy since the age assigned to geologic column is fixed instead of the expensive radiometric dating of the rock in which they are found. Now I don't mean that the rocks are not dated but it is a common experience among geologists that age according to local geology is mostly different to that gotten from radiometric dating. And this is because of the different issues which radiometric dating have, hence such dates are easily discarded.

Like I agreed, knowing decay rate and number of daughter atoms present, one can calculate the 'age' when a rock cooled but the reason why such ages are not taken serious by some (young earthers mostly) is that: different dating methods give different rates, the assumptions as stated before and the worst case is that rocks whose ages are known gave millions of years when dated. And as I stated before, there are other geochemical activities that shows decay rates may either be accelerated in the past or even point to lesser age but this is like challenging the ruling paradigm - such works don't eventually get published though other scientist write their form of rebuttals.
This is why I may not take the statement "radiometric dating is the closest thing to perfection" as 'perfect'.
For the last statement, the scientific community have a consensus and dissenters are persecuted severely (Galileo is a good example), so it may take a 'miracle' for them to accept a very good evidence that goes against the ruling paradigm as concrete. But what do I know sef

Biko , how long does it take for bones to decomposes ?

Why the carbon dating measured relatively to millions of years,?

Does it give the relative amount of time for us to calculate the timing.

Does the isotopic decay correspond to the bone or tissue decay

Does this not throw more questions than answers to the dating techique

Sorry that I am seeing this now.

I used to have body odor
Here is how I managed to.

1. Shaving my armpit
2. Not using cream near my armpit especially at the back side
3. Using lemon or lime regularly on the armpit
4. There is this oil powder , Ponds I think, that I apply at the armpit that prevent excessive sweating in my armpit.
5. Apply a good perfume on your inner wear not on the outside clothe. This help deaden the smell

Stop using soaps that leave oil on your skin surface
One final advise. What were you doing or avoiding (food, juice ) that you did during the time you notice that you don't have this body odor.. avoiding onions, garlic etc

Use deo.cool detol incase you need

Oga white men created jesus in the year 325AD. For the purpose of controling the world, and it worked perfectly on africans... I dnt want to go in details, because i knw u too is lost and may not be able to understand and ready to liberate urself from the shakles of christianity. Islam and Christianity are scam onto africans.

So oga , going by your logic let me ask you a question

What did the black / Africa man create to control the world to counter the white man ?

Oharina:
That stupid Righteousness89 of a guy is lost forever. He doesnt knw the essence of life. He deosnt knw we are Gods on earth. He doesnt knw that his buybull is fast going into extinction. He doesnt know that his darling jesus is the highest scam since the history of mankind. Hmm he is really lost. I pity his soul shaa. Because when he dies, and realises that when he was on earth, he was blind and lost, then his soul will regrate why he didnt live a life of enjoyment while on earth.

History records that Jesus exist
All archeological facts points to that fact. Scientist agree through archeological , historical forensic that he exist.
His purpose on earth were documented even for the fake scientist like you to go through .

Except you are deluding yourself with fake superior evident claiming that nonsense
Jesus was no scam but I will let you wallow in your deciet

Okay let me ask you ... Are you not the scam we are looking for
How do I know you exist .
No record of you, no forensic data on you..
Infact what is the purpose or evidence behind your existence?
you could be n cell form taking over the keyboard and expect me to believe your preposition?
How do I know the level of your enjoyment compare to the happiness or joy you intend d to
potrayy

We should know the scam by now

What you call any day will be delivered to you. For example we have Good Friday despite it almost turned into Blackest Friday.

Every day is Christmas to me
