Uyi Iredia: I don't get what you mean by to who ?

As to what end . . .

I don't know. I think I'll be leaving rational inference to speculation at that point but if I would take my pick I'd say for itself as an act of its ability. One fundamental reason why there are human creators of every stripe is because they have the ability.

o.k. See it this way: If the Space had always existed prior existence, in what form/state had it been existing hitherto to necessitate your hypothesis of self-feat? What's the correlation/difference in its primordial state(pre-creationism) and its post-primordial state(now)?

Uyi Iredia: I don't think God petty to bother over names, if He was, we couldn't cuss His name and would be shut up a la Neo on initially meeting Agent Smith. That said, it usually denotes things with lesser or no intelligence which God isn't. But fair enough, it shows neutrality which humans lack.

no, you're wrong. Lexically though. The pronoun 'his' is masculine and as such unapt for an unspecific thing. 'It' is right. It's the neutre gender and apt for your description of God(i.e. space). You know this well, albeit you cunningly and connotatively disregarded the rules to the extent of rudely capitalising the 'him', wherefore the relics of your primordial romance with theism emblazoned.

Uyi Iredia: The same way scientists prove consciousness is merely the workings of the brain. Do you know how ?

and btw, that analogy ain't smart one. The brain is an organ of the body. It is substantive. The space is not.

Uyi Iredia: The same way scientists prove consciousness is merely the workings of the brain. Do you know how ?

no. I am no scientist. Tell me please.

Uyi Iredia: which willed reality into being as a testament of Himself...

to who? (remember you claim it's INFINITE)To what end?(if it meant not interfering afterwards creation)

Uyi Iredia: which

Uyi Iredia: Himself

you meant ITSELF right?

Uyi Iredia: I hold God to be omnipresent and omnipotent, eternal and infinite, non-contingent conscious intelligence which willed reality into being as a testament of Himself.

really? So, how can you prove to me that the Space(God) I see around me often is a conscious intelligence?

Uyi Iredia: Yes. As a deist, I do believe in the Biblical God in certain respects

then I'll prefer to call you a 'moderate/mixed/renegade deist'. Going by the stony fact that the founding proponents of deism(like Edward Herbert, Charles Blount, Thomas Chubb...et al.) furily and fervidly opposed the then prevailing orthodoxy, with an unsparing critical particularity on Christianity(foremost) and the Jewish traditions.

lupey: He's everywhere at the same time! Beat that!!!

imagine! He was there when the Serpent was beguiling the Woman, yet did nothing....minutes later, reappeared and started forming ignorance of the matter. Chei! Dis una God na correct crook o!

Arosa: The interesting thing about God is nobody really knows him.

Yet he expects us to know him...smh 4 God!

Victoriousvic: His love for mankind.

you mean the same love he had for Adam and Eve, yet allowed that motherfûcker Serpent to ruin their peace? The same love he had for man, yet deployed uncle Devil to the world inhabited by the same man, knowing full well that it costs him nil sec to obliterate the Devil's existence? The same love he had for man that he chose to abide in heaven, living kingly and used our own heads as his footstools, in eternal slavery? I swear: if na dis kind love my papa/gf get for me, i for don slaughter dem tey tey! Shio!

joe4christ: See how people are busy painting God as a monster who is always in the verge of casting souls...

Your God is worse than mere monster...it's a monstrous, bestial, traitorous, treacherous MuMu!

zaza1: ...the homosexual will most likely go to hell

sharaap there! Hell is fiction! You ain't been there!

Ada Nri1: The world is coming to an end. Reminds me of W B Yeats poem, "the second coming"; Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming!

! Hardly are
those words out
When a vast image
out of Spiritus
Mundi
Troubles my sight:
somewhere in
sands of the
desert
A shape with lion
body and the head
of a man,
A gaze blank and
pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow
thighs, while all
about it
Reel shadows of
the indignant
desert birds.
The darkness
drops again; but
now I know
That twenty
centuries of stony
sleep
Were vexed to
nightmare by a
rocking cradle,
And what rough
beast, its hour
come round at last,
Slouches towards
Bethlehem to be
born?

NBA urges ASUU
not to end strike
2013-08-22
00:00:08
The Ikeja branch
of the Nigerian Bar
Association has
urged the
Academic Staff
Union of
Universities not to
end its ongoing
strike which
started on July 1,
2013 unless its
demands are met
by the Federal
Government.
Chairman of the
branch, Mr. Monday
Ubani, at a press
briefing in Lagos
on Wednesday,
said the union
should stick to its
demands to avoid
the need for
embarking on
another round of
strike action in
few months time.
The demands of
the university
teachers include
the N87bn which
the Federal
Government
agreed to pay to
them in 2009 as
arrears of their
earned
allowances.
Ubani, while
fielding questions
from journalists,
said, "I will like
ASUU not to call
off the strike for
now so that this
issue can be
addressed once
and for all.
"They should not
renege on the
agreement and call
off the strike only
to embark on
another one again
in the next few
months."
Ubani, who
addressed the
press alongside
other members of
his executive
council, said the
strike was a blow
to the educational
system and that it
was caused by the
Federal
Government's
misplaced
priorities.
He said, "We are
confused with the
priorities of this
government. While
they said they
have no money to
rescue our
educational sector,
they are busy
buying another jet
to add to the fleet
jet already owned
by the Presidency
and organising
jamboree of high
class women in
Abuja with millions
of naira."
