991: The answer is very simple and it goes like this,

'Give a man fish, you feed him for a day,
Teach him how to catch fish, he will feed himself for a life-time
Give him religion, he will starve to death while praying for fish.

buzugee: the lord dont make mistakes. what we have are punishments and rewards. ecclesiastes 3 vs 16 And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, under the sun, called the earth, is the place of judgement. this is where you pay for your sins from previous life or get your rewards from previous life john 9 vs 1-2 1 As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?

Image123: Not surprisingly, you lack much comprehension power. Your mind has been blinded.

Logic Mind: i think that's one word he wished he hadn't created.

Logic Mind: he's hiding

Image123: Waoh, atheism is solution all our problems then, except that atheists usually commit suicide, are sinners like other sinners, also lose, fail, experience agonizing deaths, live in poverty, get sick, etc. Atheists and their evangelisms, my religion is better than yours show.

Gerrard59: OK LogicBoy,agreed Mark is an atheist,even china,singapore,Hong kong e.t.c are either secular,agonostic or atheistic. But i think what Africa needs is secularity and not atheistism. Look @ Brazil today,mexico,india-these are religious countries and are doing well economically. Agree that countries that are less religious are more peaceful than their opposite. But in terms of crime,Britain is secular or atheistic but the crime rate is high,same for suicide rates high in south korea,taiwan and their baba japan.
Am a secularist{cant remember when last i went to church}, but i firmly beleive that there is a GOD in this world. Tell me how can all the wonders in the world would just form like that? Abi you be APE?

goshen360: The word trinity does not appear in the bible. The word Trinity implies three distinct person that co-exist as one. Hence, you have Tri(three)-nity(unity). This is what it means, three persons is one. This same principle God established in marriage, two shall become one.

The mystery of the "Godhead" or "trinity" is not difficult and at the same time cannot be explained with our senses. If we admit in our real life husband and wife being (two different persons) to be ONE, how shall we not comprehend three being one. In other words, we can refer to husband and wife as "twonity or twinity" if you permit my words. They are two but function as ONE. This does not however mean there is no superior between the husband and wife. The husband is the head of the wife, so also it is in the mystery of the Godhead or trinity.

Back to the kweshion, Is Jesus God, YES but not the ALMIGHTY GOD. With man as it relates to this context, one and/plus one is two; with God, one and/plus one is one. This is my understanding sir.

mkmyers45: Mark Z is an Atheist

buzugee: christianity is a label too. you are very right. i am not a christian. we are all human beings. period. whomever brings anything to the table did not do it because of some percieved superficial tags as you have divulged. thats just absolutely preposterous and nonsensical

Lenny5000: Is TIME one? What about an EGG? these are the simply examples I can give. Time is Triune in nature cos we are constantly living in the Past, Present and Future yet it is still one and the same TIME! An Egg has the yoke,white stuff and the back .. If you separate it, each of the part is still EGG and if you leave them together it is still EGG. And so we have The GODHEAD which comprises of Father, Son, Holy Spirit. Three in one Same God, each has a Function! Jesus is the WORD and has all the fullness of Godhead. There is a place in the Bible where God the Father address Jesus as God. Also God the father calls himself "I AM" Jesus also used this same title "Before Abraham was, I AM" You must also understand that while Jesus was on earth he was a full Man! He experienced everything a normal man experiences, so when in turmoil, he prayed to the FATHER, but in Revelations you see Jesus as he is in Heaven, proclaiming himself "Alpha and Omega" Again he said "I and My Father are ONE" And don't forget, he was killed because he claimed to be GOD (The Jews said "We are not stoning you for any of these but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God".. In the beginning The WORD "Jesus" was with GOD "Father" and the WORD "Jesus" was GOD..
Of cause Trinity is mystery but so are so many other things, that was why I use the simply explanation of time and Egg, I hope I made some sense to you... Stay Blessed

buzugee: YOUR LOGIC IS FLAWED. JUST BECAUSE THESE PEOPLE CHOOSE TO LABEL THEMSELVES BY MAN MADE TAGS DOES NOT MEAN THEY ARE WHAT THEY SAY THEY ARE. IF YOU DECIDE TO CHANGE YOUR SURNAME AND THEN GO ON TO PRODUCE A TV, DOES THE FACT THAT YOU MADE THE TV UNDER A DIFFERENT SURNAME MEAN YOU WERE NOT FROM YOUR DAD ? ALL THOSE THINGS (ZEN BUDDHISM, ATHEISTS ETC ETC ) ARE JUST TAGS. THEY ARE LABELS PEOPLE PUT ON THEMSELVES TO ASSUME AN AIR OF SPIRITUAL IMPORTANCE.

Gerrard59: @Logicboy-Mark zuckerberg is a jew and not an atheist.

Miroslav klose: yet atheists has a very small population in the world despite 'contributing so much' solutions to human problems, with God believers out numbering the non believers. what an irony
