maclatunji

I just want to expose some comments from a moderator who flexes power!


Trust me! For I hide posts and ban people at my discretion;

maclatunji: Oh please! You have to trust my judgement as moderator. I have hidden the post and will not show it here. Logicboy has to understand that his posting here's a privilege not a right and apply due discretion. I may entertain no further questions on this matter. I am being lenient by even allowing his new monicker.

HeKnows: [b]That's why my friends you should never take the people of a religion as a mere example on that specific religion itself...Am a christian myself, and it's sadly to say that 80 to 90% of the so called Christians in this world, are not truly Christians, or in other words, are not really living the life of a real christian, starting with the Vatican and Catholics.. & so on... They all have given Christianity a really bad name, and people looks upon them and judge Christianity according to them, and that's really sad....They think they are true Christians, but once you look closely at their lives and how they're treating others(not as Jesus taught), and how they are living according to man made laws and drifted away from the doctrines of Christ in the bible...Then you realize that not anyone who calls himself a Christian is considered truly a Christian...And I can guarantee you that all those points you just talked about judging Christians, well it's kinda embarrassing to say that about 70% of the Christians might do so...Why ? I'll tell you why...They drifted away from the doctrines of the bible and the real message of Christ...And people are taking these Christians as a bad example, and that's what's sad about it too...Clearly your post in here says it all....That's really sad...But a piece of an advice...Don't judge the religion by the so called Christians that are acting in many wrong ways and who are drifting away from the doctrines of Christ...These I shall call Bad Christians...I feel sorry how come they call themselves Christians too, they are a disgrace for the image of Christ...Anyways, you might wonder and think, he's Judging them !...Yes I'am, but it's not me who is judging them, it's the doctrine of Christ/God who is judging them through me...Anyways you are right about everything...And that's really sad. May god have mercy on all of us... [/b]

Ijawkid, are you seeing the comment of a honest christian?

ijawkid: I have always told u that d future and time will make that ur graph change...

Let's pray we live on for d next 50yrs and let's see hw peaceful ur family(atheist) countries will continue to be peaceful....

As for me I hate wars and will never get involved in it...not for any reason...

Shut up. The secular countries are peaceful and have been for a number of years.

kokabiel: I think Seun is reasonable to the point of protecting his business from any activity he deems detrimental to its financial growth
on the other hand, it is a moderated forum and you (clearly) cannot have literal liberties you get on truly public (non-moderated) forums.

He bears a heavy burden of playing the moral compass each time he has to ban anyone - it must be wearing him down psychologically

Thin line between satisfying customers and doing the right thing

ghostofsparta: How is communism a state religion. Isn't it a political ideology.

Yes and Islam in the form of Sharia is a political ideology.



Communism had symmbols, deifying leaders of communist parties. It was not based on simple beliefs not logic eg a classless society is utopia.

Avicenna: BTW, ramadan sucks
Can't wait to get out of here to go eat some Amala and gbegiri soup

Nice one

[quote author=Area_boy]I can tolerate most of them to a certain extent. but what I can never swallow is them defending their "demigods" or so called men of god.

how brainwashed do people have to be before they realise that these guys are in it for the money and just that. [/quote]I see.


I's very annoying. They let their so called men of God get away with fraud and human rights abuses. Yet, they call themselves christians and holy people

Original post; https://www.nairaland.com/996232/3-silly-things-nairaland-christians


Religion can make you do stupid things. The worst that an atheist/agnostic can do on the internet is insult religion when it comes to religion.


Lets look at the abyss of st.upidity/hypocrisy that religion is dragging our fellow Nigerians into;

1)Insulting the victims and using disasters to praise their religion;
The Dana aeroplane crash is an example. They say foolish things like "God saved me from buying a plane ticket that day". God saved you? Were the people on that flight cursed or punished by God? Why didnt God save everybody on that flight ( from the crash,therefore, saving more people altogether) rather than saving you alone?

Another example is the Haiti earthquake, where Jesoul tells a story of a couple that was "saved by God" from the earthquake.

https://www.nairaland.com/388072/haiti-earthquake-intimate-account-providence

So, God chose not to save the hundreds of people that died in the earthquake or the injured in the earthquake but to save the couple?

Tell me, is that not an insult to the victims?

I believe that these Nairaland christians are one step away from Pat Robertson who claimed that the earthquake was because of the Haitian's pact with the devil!



2) Defend the evils that some "Men of God" or church authorities do;
These MOGs' have become more important than Jesus himself.

Oyedepo slapped a girl and people were defending it. Even here on Nairaland where people are from all over the world. In any advanced/developed country, would Oyedepo have gotten away with such? https://www.nairaland.com/931150/oyedepo-fails-appear-court-slapping

What about private jets? Does a pastor need a private jet when diplomats fly amost every week on commercial planes? The same diplomats who fly more than these MOGs' and have a more important job of keeping peace and harmony between countries? Any pastor with a private jet is a fraud- a tithe fraud. https://www.nairaland.com/446173/does-pastor-trully-need-private/1

What about catholics? How can you still be a catholic when the catholic church mas made it clear that when a case of child abuse is evident, their first priority is to make sure that the reputation of catholic church is not damaged rather than helping the abuse victim.


3) Post nonsense end-of-the-world/Obama/666 conspiracies;

Oh no! Its the end of the world! Fear the beast, the 666! Obama isputting chips in peoples heads!

This is the lunacy that happens when you get people to read and believe the folklore that is the book of revlations. God save these people if they get room 666 in a hotel!

Here are some of such threads;
https://www.nairaland.com/998578/how-666-emerge....see-proof-here
https://www.nairaland.com/988159/obamas-health-care-bill-harbinger
https://www.nairaland.com/948502/end-time-evident-this-shocking


4) Claim that atheists are persecuting them and want their own section

When did christians become so intolerant to criticism like the muslims? Hypcoritically, they christians call atheists fools and make threads criticisng evolution as an ungodly doctrine of atheists and skeptics. This thread would be boring as hell if we split it and atheists/pagans/agnostics give the Nairaland religion section some extra spice.

Just look at the barren wasteland that is called the Islam section.


Anyways here are such threads
https://www.nairaland.com/999041/re-christian-section


https://www.nairaland.com/959186/christianity-christians





5) Hypocritically blaming others for immorality and hate/wars. Also calling atheists "militant".
Christianity is not a religion of peace or morality. The bible alone contains the immorality of inbreeding (Abraham and Sarah- stepbrother/sister), Racism (Jesus and the Canaanite woman Matthew 15:22-26 and genocide (extermination of Amakelites, Noah's flooding). Christianity has been by far the bloodiest religion ever known to mankind from Constantine's just war in 314 to the inquisitions in the 12 century to Hitler.

Atheism should not be conflated with anti-religion. Atheism is only a theological stance and not a doctrine or set of beliefs.

Christians do not have the copyright on morality. Anyone can be immoral. Atheism is not evil. Infact, christians do not have the standing to claim that others are immoral when we look at the evidence;

LagosShia: Mr. you are entitled to your opinion and even your "logic".it is not by force to understand anything.

i am done with this thread.i have given enough info,ideas and argument so that you do not spam the forum in near future and start the same topic again as you are fond of doing.

best regards on your "logic".

Lol.....it must hurt that I xposed your ignorance on your religion's and country's history.


Can you see your ignorance;

LagosShia: bring me evidence the arab muslims were in Nigeria and then we will find out what they were doing.you have not even brought evidence to back your claim they were in nigeria.

https://www.nairaland.com/998816/honest-question-muhammad-pbuh#11550633

plaetton: Can we also say that capitalism is also a state religion in America?

No

justaqad: remember i said i was expecting a visit from holy spirit?
I actually got a surprise visit.hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.i believe you must have been visited,cos i gave em ur address.i am gonna post it later.

I hope that you realise that you're sounding crazy right now

justaqad: i have something really great i will like to share with you.but first of all are you the same logicboy,aka macdaddy?

Yes. I am logicboy/macdaddy

justaqad: the quran is indeed perfect and complete.
As stated in the holy quran.that is the reason people like usisky dont dont believe the hadith.

Good

Goshen360: Your statement highlighted is not 100% true. There are many churches that don't practice tithing because they know the truth about God's true/biblical tithing. There is a church here in the USA, their leader is called John MacArthur, he is a strong bible teacher of truth, his church is about 25,000 members. They never tithe "money" but practice giving. There are also many more I know too well that don't practice tithing. And when you use such words as "Simple", it means you "probably" have a concluded point in your mind and thinks that is final. It's not true, not "Every" church has the tendency of tithe fraud.

As long as there is tithing/offering, there is always the risk of tithe fraud.

justaqad: most muslims have been fed with so many lie about islam emanating from the hadith.but i realised quran is the only guidance any muslim should seek,cos Allah has promised to guard it.
But i seriously find it hillarious why he would delete your posts,since they are all quranic.hmmmmmmm.

What is the need for the hadith if the Quran is perfect and complete?

Goshen360: Religion as you mentioned will be a personal thing but a practice of "church" and "ministry" are not the same thing. I do not support tithing because It's not a new testament thing. Aside, not everyone in Israel were commanded to tithe but all were required to give, no matter how little it may be. We all have something to give but we don't all have the biblical content of tithe - crops and animals.

The purpose of this thread is to be an eye opener to those that will care to listen and act wisely. The "church" of God is not to run as "ministry" where it is being administered as personal business, one man show and the people of God used as merchandise to manage a family establishment that is cleverly named "church" on the surface but the practice of a biblical church is absent.

Every church has the tendency of tithe fraud. Simple. There is even misuse of funds in the catholic church even though it is the most organized church in the world

Goshen360: The real truth we should educate our fellow Christians and young believers that are being lured into this falsehood and deception of one man show that they claimed to be ministry but turned into church is that church is different from ministry. When a man says he has a ministry and using church to run his ministry, he is cleverly saying am running a one man business in the name of God for my personal/family benefits. This is very contrary to church organization in the word of God. One thing people are not likely to see in the falsehood of false prophets is that, they will so do things very cleverly to the extend it will almost be difficult to spot error from the truth unless one is grounded well in scriptures

Today, we see people naming church after their ministry. We see father (founder) cunningly installing his son/wife while he is still alive to take over after him, the founder. Those this mean there are no good people in such church to take after the founder? Jesus never installed all his family members to establish the church even though his family members participated in the early church. Today, there are churches operated as ministry with ALL family members installed in key positions from father to the least of the family member and the people of God used as merchandise for family establishment and cunningly called church. We do not have such practice in the church of Jesus.My job/ministry is to "open the eyes of them that sit in darkness". What do you do with good knowledge gained from good threads on this board? Use it wisely. Should you be in such one man or family establishment, cunningly called church; kindly seek the face of God and allow God lead you out of such place to the place where you will grow by the word.

Lets have a simple discussion.


Wouldnt it be the best solution to make religion a personal thing and become more secular? As long as christianity is given priviledge, tithe frauds will always soil the name of christianity.

ghostofsparta: China, Japan, Sweden, Estonia etc

Remove china from that list. Communism is a state religion

Sweetnecta: my only response to this questioner is if he can make a 3 sided perfect circle? if he can not then he should look at his question and the reasoning behind it is lacking "good" logic. Allah has made His Presence manifested in each of us even if we ignore everything around us.

Epic fail. What I aked was in the realms of possibility. I can make a builidng that I can not move. Can Allah make a rock that he can not move?

Deep Sight: Ah, finally a sensible comment. I agree with you here. How did noodles conjure this?

O, it must be the spice.

No, it was the noodley being. The omnipotent pasta.

[/quote]lol.


I am even realising that many of them do not know that their religions came to Nigeria with slavery

God is the opium of the people.

Different people, different hallucinations;

-an omnipotent force.


Keep hallucinating, theists!
