tbaba1234: The Ayah below sums up everything; Be steadfast and mindful of Allah...

you are sure to be tested through your possessions and persons; you are sure to hear much that is hurtful from those who were given the Scripture before you and from those who associate others with God.If you are steadfast and mindful of God, that is the best course. (Surah Al imran :186)

quoting scriptures is easy. Addressing the issue, not so much.

tunshe: I may be new to Nairaland but really worried by every opportunity destructive criticism from the Christians on this Platform.

My expectations were,to see leaders create unity,ideas on Nation Building,statements of tolerance but alas,peeps continue to fan embers of religious intolerance,misquote Scriptures to favour their thoughts and incitement to generate hatred.

I weep for the future of this country ,if the people we look up to are expressing so much bias?how then do we leave together in Future?or is the earlier generation better than ours?

I look forward to see comments.

This very section is an example of intolerance. Other religions all share one section. Islam had to have its own section.

One has to wonder if Nairaland muslims have any idea what intolerance means.

davidylan: You indeed sir, are a monumental joke. As for the joke of a paper you have posted there... most serious molecular biologists have probably never heard of it. I suppose you know that the top journals for biologists is Nature, Science, JBC, MCB e.t.c.

Here is an article from Nature on the australopithecus afarensis;

You are so shameless. Keep denying the transitional fossils. Anyone can see that I have debunked you.

Where is your scientific journal showing that macro evolution is a fraud?

nyameke: All jokes aside any NL " Christian" who converts to atheism based on these frivolous arguments and statements spewed by these harebrained so called atheist "intellectuals on here must definitely not be a real Christian in the first place .. I mean some of their so called logical reasoning are a joke really ..
Are you kidding me there is actually only one or two atheist on here that make sense with their drivels.

Can you explain some of these illogical arguments by atheists?

Here are a few by your fellow christians

-There is evidence for God (Intellectual christians have moved past this lie)
-Rihanna and Jay-z are illuminati (when there is no evidence for such)
-Flooding the whole world and killing most people (if it happened) would not be genocide
-Incest is bad but it was ok for Adam and Eve's children to do it.

You have no standing to call any atheist "illogical"

davidylan: You indeed sir, are a monumental joke. As for the joke of a paper you have posted there... most serious molecular biologists have probably never heard of it. I suppose you know that the top journals for biologists is Nature, Science, JBC, MCB e.t.c.

Yes, a paper published by the Royal Society is a joke. One of the most prestigious science organizations in the world.

davidylan: 1b. You cited ONE journal and all of a sudden decided that evolution was accepted by "most" scientific journals? Have you no shame?

Lol....see this quack biologist? Do you assume that there is only one journal on transitional fossils? See how you play deceptive tricks to deceive your christian followers?


A simple google scholar search shows that there are 11000 results for australopithecus from 1995-2012. All results are journal articles or books

davidylan: 1a. What are you bleating about? the only reason most christian threads talking about tithing dont get a lot of christian input is thanks to obdurate souls like you who derive no greater pleasure than destroying entire threads to push your poisonous but intellectually empty drivel. Go search this section, there are MANY old threads discussing these issues indepth... back in the day when we had mature atheists who understood that you didnt derail threads out of malicious intent.

Start providing the evidence to back your accusations that I derail threads because of malicious intents. You dont have any because a) you cant read my mind b) you will never post a link to such a comment from me.


As for tithing scam, its funny how you're denying that christians dont push this misleading propaganda. also like how you ignored the propaganda of the end of the world conspiracies put by christians. Lets also ignore the conspiracies/propaganda that nairaland christians put that you would never find an equivalent in atheism;

-Celebrities in illuminati wprshupping of devil; Jay-z, Kanye, Lady gaga etc (My best christian conspiracy)
-TB Joshua predicting batman shooting (after being caught editing the prophecy tapes)
-Obama is anti-christ
-Gay people are destroying america

Keep saying that atheists are misleading people when your christians are the ones promoting nonsense that have no basis in reality.

davidylan: 2. Those are mere words... if you think God doesnt exist then why are you bothered? I dont care if muslims call me a keferi... water off ducks back. Could it be you foam in the mouth when called immoral because deep down you do know that your life isnt straight with God?

Millitant? Isnt that an apt description of your brainless raging bull in a china shop attitude to everything on the religion section?

Mere words? Remember when your fellow christians used to torture people for mere words?


What does your bible teach you bout the tongue,hypcrite?

Do you think people like being called fools or devils? You think it is fun being insulted?

You're such an evil christian without any morality. You defend insulting people. Shameless

ogoamaka99: Oh! sorry for you, Bishop Oyedepo do say that "only fools doubt proofs". Who are the smart ones?

You know that there exists no proof for God?

[quote author=Mr_Anony]What exactly was he right about? he asked a question and I answered. You ask the same question and I give you the same answer (highlighted)[/quote]You must be joking. Why would god need his human form in heaven?

[quote author=Mr_Anony]Stephen was not deluded. If you want us to have a meaningful conversation I suggest you do away with he thinly veiled insults as they don't help us in any way.
God is One and exists in a three-person Godhead. If you are interested, we can have a proper discussion on the Trinity but if your intention is mockery, then I'm afraid I don't have your time.[/quote]Delafruita is right. How can Stephen see Jesus at the right hand of God?

davidylan: Daft and dishonest... have you done a search of topics here in the last 3-4 yrs? I remember one long thread discussing gay rights indepth just a few yrs ago that ran well into 20 pages. Stop bleating about what you dont know... makes you look lazy.

A few years ago? Did gay people die this year?


Daviddylar

cyrexx: I once heard someone say that when a single person displays his delusion, we call it madness. When a large group of people displays their delusion, we call it religion.

epic comment sir, just epic

Please, Davidylan, tell me again how human transitional fossils are fraudulent, when there is evidence to the contrary;

www.nairaland.com/attachments/689321_Australopithecus_png_2_png46b327f702ce4cd6eb0a064f73bd612a

davidylan: Yeah you really should not respond. Much of what you say is immature nonsense. If not that the internet is now free for all, your likes should be in class trying to get a bachelors degree rather than misusing your half-baked high school "knowledge" to try to act like you know anything.

What? Unlike you, I excel at my field in business. Most of my posts are filled with facts. I back up my statements.

You claim to be biologist yet you deny transitional fossils. Shameless

davidylan: Again let me point out 2 key issues you're missing...

1. you're DELIBERATELY conflating "facts" to mean "insults". Being a christian does not mean sitting around having others walk all over you while meekly surrendering yourself to their manipulations. Many of you muslims and atheists have mastered the dishonest act of using misleading propaganda and malicious manipulation to do unto others what you complain loudly about when they extend same to you.
When Christ called the pharisees the "generation of vipers", it was not a curse... it was simply the TRUTH.
So when i say that logicboy's posts are mostly a confused jumble of words... it is not to insult him but to simply state the truth.

2. Ungodly = without god... ditto for heathen or gentile... how is that an insult? Atheists have a field day refering to us as illogical, unable to utilize reason, ignorant about science... and YET hypocrites like you ignore such blatant unflattering language only to moan that someone has tagged you a "heathen"? Na wa o.

1) So you ignore all the tithing scams, end of world theories that christians do to on nairaland to accuse atheists of misleading propaganda? You that were denying transitional fossils that are accepted by most scientific journals? Dont you have any shame? A biologist denying evolution, denying transitional fossils?



2)What about "immoral"? What about militant, devils, fools?

[quote author=Area_boy]Which really is no different from Joseph Smith. why they choose to believe one and doubt the other is beyond me! lol

Religion is just one big mess/confusion [/quote]Brainwashing at an early age is very strong.

dekung: If this story is true as the OP claimed then it onle means one thing and that is 'every deity is powerful in its own region and another one would not dere to trespass or interfere irrespective of how highly placed the visiting deity's adherents are'. Like is stated above, the pastor trepassed beyond his boundaries and he is properly dealt with. How come the pastors god refused to open his eye? There is no deity, wether yahweh, elohim, obatala, sango, esu, ifa, ayilala, amadioha etc that is perpetually/exclusively bad or good. They are like tools in the hands of we humans. We can use them the way we use fire or electricity however if they are mishandled the consequencies may be grave. Reminds me of the movie 'The last air bender' neither the earth benders nor air benders or fire benders are more powerful than the rest. It only depends on how individual benders choose to use their powers wether for good or for evil. My advice for the blind pastor is to swallow his pride and go beg the herbalist and perform all necessary rituals otherwise he can kiss his eyes good bye

lol...it seems you dont know benodic and his nonsense explanations. He fails to realise that his argument debunks his own religion and the power of his god

Delafruita: must have been more powerful than methamphetamine for the dude to actually see gabriel,converse with him,journey to heaven and still have the energy to maintain FOUR wives.

He had more than four wives- he was deluded to the point of not even following the Quran.

davidylan: Awww someone has noticed that fewer and fewer folks are responding to his idiocy?

Look the truth is this:

1. Far fewer christians are posting here because they realise it has become a pointless exercise particularly with the proliferation of ignorant, obstinate, mentally lazy individuals who just bleat - "religion bad, atheism good... baa baa" every 2 secs.

2. Its boring... its the same mindless rehashing of debunked, frankly laughable, inane talking points. Nothing new, nothing stimulating... we do have jobs you know.

3. Everyone at some point gets tired of responding to immature little children who abuse their limited access to the PC to make a fool of themselves.

No need to respond. Delafruita has already put you in your place.

engrtee: No no no. I think the christian have resorted to preaching in other places becus they think atheist have polluted this section

Why are you using the word "pollute"?


You think you christians dont pollute this section with your tithing frauds and "end of the world" conspiracies?

brainpulse: Not frustrated, but too busy to start replying uninteresting posts, same line of thoughts, same recycled topic and ideology, and constant sarcastic comments. All these could make an old woman busy doing nothing

Probably....seems the only interesting thing on NL is TB Joshua

Reyginus: EPIC FLAW

Epic non-rebuttal

lagerwhenindoubt: There are Religious folks with the Atheists Gene as there are Atheists with the Jesus-Freak Gene

Epic fail.

Every christian is a Jesus Freak. Try and insult Jesus to their face

Reyginus: By winning souls for atheism(as you claim),are you not guilty of what you accuse the religionists of doing?

1) There is no evidence for souls. Probably dont exist
2) Have you ever seen me providing atheist books? I dont care if someone is an agnostic or deist.

SimonAndal: Logicboy, don't you think your atheistic crusade is getting just a tad bit too much? I know the fight to liberate humanity from religious bigotry and close-mindedness is one that must be fought, but you're giving us atheists a bad name. You're making us sound like desperate christians and muslims. #NoHate

lol.....crusade ke? I just asked a simple question. Have ever seen me peddling books or quoting Richard Dawkins?


Although, I have to admit that I do sometimes get too zealous in bashing religion

I have notice the decline in christians posting here on the religion forum. Many of the old guys have left. I am suspecting that some of the them got frustrated at the increasing number of atheistic posts while some have actually been swayed by the arguments against their religion.


I am wondering if some of the people converted to atheism are too ashamed to come and admit it after some of them have been attacking atheists.

Delafruita: khadijah probably deserves some credit as well.her cooking and ...... skills could have contrinuted to el-amin's delusions and "visions"

lmao.....that halal food must have been some good hallucinogenic

cyrexx: simple.
because he was created in the minds of Arabs, starting with Mohammed, and spread by force by his believers across middle east/north africa and the rest of the world.

lmao......Muhammed must have been on some good opium

okeyxyz: shoo?? Religion is not a discipline? ok, please do tell, What is a discipline and how does religion not qualify

Theology is a discipline. Religion is a fraud!

okeyxyz: ok, if we go by your "sound" logic, then it follows that every development(or at least most) in human endeavor should come from africa. wow!!!

Nope, just irrational that God chose to ignore the first people and then rush to reveal himself to isreal

A good question is why Allah chose to reveal himself only in the middle east/north Africa?

.

okeyxyz: okay! Since you are smart enough to know this, then what do you have against religion? Since every discipline in the universe is man-made while their subject is naturally occurring, Why do you hold exceptional bias against religion??

Religion is not a discipline. It refuses to accept that it is man made and fallible. Your religion asks for submission to an invisible being

okeyxyz: Of course!! And what's wrong with that?? Have you ever asked an accountant to diagnose your fever??

Huh? Answer why your god chose to reveal himself to people in the middle east? What were Abraham and Moses doing in the middle east when the first people in the world were from Africa?
