Pastor AIO: I myself came very reluctantly to this conclusion after engaging with NL threads, studying history, and looking deep within myself and at others around me.PastorAIO, I must apologise for the first impression and meeting I had with you. I was a bit arrogant and thought that you were probably one of those fraudulent preachers here on Nairaland. I have however, learnt a great deal from your posts. Thank you very much. Concerning the issue of the mass delusion in religion, conflict and human future, I believe that there is still hope. My trip to the country of Malta gave me hope. These people do not care about wars or controlling other people. The maltese people are very calm and love to mind their own business. It is a sleepy island for 8 months but busy in the summer with tourists. Although I saw firsthand racism at the airport when I got there (white on black), most people in Malta are just relaxed. There is no police on the streets and everybody minds their own business and are extra helpful if you ask for help. Lagos is 10 times more beautiful than Malta which but the people of malta and the peaceful atmosphere is what makes it nice. Once the common man can feed his family, house his family, provide healthcare for his family and send them to school, a country is at peace. People can do what they want. I coe from a fishing village in Nigeria but I have never seen happier fishermen in my life than the ones I have seen in Malta. Malta has a lot of christians but you would only know by statistics, you dont see people attending churches or acting fundamentalist about. The point that I am trying to make is that humans can achieve peace and continuous development and we have evidence for it. However, there are certain conditions that have to be met; -Secularism and freedom -Educated masses -Self sustaining nation that can provide resources for all citizens. The common man being able to feed his family Many European countries have secularism and high levels of literacy but why are they not as peaceful as Malta? Some of the Eastern European countries have seriously poor underclass and crime always follows that. Furthermore, some countries are not self sustaining, they dont focus on the needs of the common man even though the resources are there. When you put the resources in the hand of select few to greedily keep, the results are disastrous. Bankers destroying economies with public money and people's houses (mortagage). There is hope if leaders are willing to meet certain conditions. Greed and religion is whatb is holding us back |

frosbel: Many of these our 'intelligent' arm chair atheists on Nairaland have not even invented a biro , and they forget that some of the greatest scientists and minds were actually Theists !!nope....majority of them were deists, pantheists, agnostics and atheists.......and few were actually religious. You have got to consider that they were skeptics when the theory of evolution was not popular and the internet was not even around. |

[quote author=emöfine2]To be honest this is one of the most unfortunate story I've ever read in the bible and I have never gleaned anything spiritual or higher from it (aside from job describing the elements and the power of his god). It made me wonder if we are mere pawns in an egotistical battle between god and his adversary...their contention was so that it interfered with and affected the life of another and in extension his family, employees, livestock and charities for the duration of their bet. So in essence it was not only the life of one man that was interfered with and I doubt those that were rendered as collateral damage were directly compensated for during the period of their own loss. And the most preposterous part of the story is that in the end Job had another batch of 10 children who were said to be even more beautiful than the last set. Would it even matter if they were not attractive or even less attractive than the last 10?...a child is irreplaceable talkless of ten...you cannot cement that loss with beauty. Albeit I understand that trials may exist to make one stronger or refine their character but the manner in which this occurred - to prove a point to the devil about job who was already "perfect" - was pretty callous in my opinion of course.[/quote]Thanks for your insight. I 100% agree. What I dislike about the Job story is the treatment of wives and children as property that can be replaced. I pity christians who defend the murder of innocent children |

Many people always tell me about the story of Job to strengthen my faith but I think it is a wrong story for faith. Story of Job -Job is a wealthy man with a family -Satan sees this and wants God to test his faith -God allows Satan to destroy Jobs family -Job is also given disease -Job remains faithful despite suffering -The devil is angry and God is pleased. Any non-christian that is not blinded by faith can see the obvious problems in this story 1) Satan tempts God. God agrees. This is contrary to what Jesus told Satan in the wilderness. Contradiction 2) God/Satan murders a man's family (children) just to test his faith. For all the christians who agree with this, may the same thing happen to you. "do unto others...". How can this be? Taking innocent lives just because you want to test someone's faith. How would you like it if your children were just killed because someone wants to test your faith? 3) God replaces Job's wealth and family at the end. This is what is wrong with the bible. It sees women and children as properties you can replace. Can someone replace your mother? Can someone else take the place of your children? God allows Satan to murder Job's children and later "blesses" him with other children. Can someone shout allelujah? God is here with replacement children. 4) Biological warfare. Job's case is one of the many cases the Almighty uses disease to inflict suffering on others. When a militant religious group uses disease to kill others, do not be surprised....oh wait 9 Likes |

ijawkid: What was d end result of jobs integrity....??Who is talking about Dana here? Abeg stick to the point! God was directly involved with Job. Can Job replace his children that he lost? You are here aboasting about rewards and replacement children that God gave Job after. Stop and think, can you replace your parents or children? If you children are killed and wife gone, can you really replace them with another wife and children? The memories andtime spent with the first children will always reain there. The bible sees women and children as things you can replace, that is why the story of Job is like that- very foolish. |

ijawkid: Oga atheist where did water come from??Much of the universe's water is produced as a byproduct of star formation. When stars are born, their birth is accompanied by a strong outward wind of gas and dust. When this outflow of material eventually impacts the surrounding gas, the shock waves that are created compress and heat the gas. The water observed is quickly produced in this warm dense gas.[20] Einstein was an agnostic and did not believe in a religious god. So you are foolish. Most scientists do not believe in God. nly quacks like Davidylan are creationists |

ijawkid: God didn't kill jobs kids if u ever read ur bible well...Well if you can say that easily about somebody's family, how would you like for God to test your faith by "allowing" your family to die? How does your conscience feel? Can you replace your mon/sister/father/brother/children? How would you like if someoene said that God allowed satan to kill them. |
