Wait your mother in law is determining your sex life? O wrong naw.
MaxInDHouse: Lots is happening affecting people's lives, they want to know why, you don't know yet you want to argue after admitting you don't know. What fact is in your ignorance?
Well, telling them fables isn't the solution either. The facts I have offered have formed the basis for many helpful things, just not the type of things a cult like yours can or wants to teach.
PastorMIsBack: Lol Thankfully we have a choice of whom we want to see. It may sometimes mean a longer wait, but hey, ho!
Well different strokes for different folks. I lost a lot of self consciousness after I had to have female nurses bathe me or watch me use a bedpan. More women saw me naked in that instance than have in my entire adult life previous.
MaxInDHouse: So with all the knowledge you've acquired both in your scientific researches and University all you can do is just trolling on a forum like this where people need to be enlightened. Ó mà ṣeo!
I enlightened people with facts not with fables and nightmares. LoL.
bmdmix11: if Muslims had Mohammed witness like jehovah witness I wonder what it will b like when they knock on ur door?
Since there doesn't seem to be a pacifist Islamic sect, it's hard to determine what that would look like. However there have been pacifist Muslims much like Ghandi so what would Ghandi like Muslims do if they came to your door? Maybe invite you to sit down and block the front of the local alcoholic joint. LoLz.
Escabado: Forget all these they say is better to date a matured woman. The major thing that brings a typical Nigerian man close to a woman is her body.if that body is not fresh and young, my brother you will never be happy.
Well then, seems I am not a typical Nigerian man then.
PastorMIsBack: Oh I see. There'll be some people who would prefer to talk to a female and we are more compassionate. It's easier for me to give you a hug, male or female, than for a male chaplain to give a hug.
When I go to my doctor's for an intimate examination, I always request a female doctor I ain't opening my legs for no man
LoL! PastorMIsBack o! You are killing me with laughter this early morning. Bwahahahahaha!
PastorMIsBack: We now have female Bishops etc, and because they try to include minorities, I have a high chance
I am talking more about actually interacting with people, won't people be reticent interacting with a female chaplain since chaplaincy has been male dominated previously?
MaxInDHouse: Guy you've always said it repeatedly that you don't know anything about God so instead of wishing everyone to be as ignorant as you're it's better you stick to a section where you can be of good use with what you know!
LMAO! I am not the source of your nightmares Ok. Bwahahahahaha!
MaxInDHouse: Now you will know what being a true Christian means! On a thread where many claims CHRISTIANS achorladey (Apostate), MindHacker (AntiChristian), oteneaaron and LordReed (atheists) were able to figure out just two commentators belonging to a unique group and challenging them as if only these two are followers of Jesus! Luke 12:11
Jehovah's Witnesses, my God will continue to bless you guys for locating me!
This guy and his nightmares. Anything to validate your cult.
Truvelisback: Good day, Fellas. I have been hearing saying some folks saying that they don't believe the existence of God, that if truly God exist, why are terrible things happening like these. Now, i wanna ask u, if u were God, what would u have done or what would u do?
If I were god I'd have made sure terrible things didn't happen.
Image123: Lol, you don't believe in supernatural but it looks supernatural. How can something look like what you don't believe in and doesn't exist? It's an open secret Reed, you're richer than Oyedepo was when he started Winners. Why don't you have a multibillion naira generating organization? Don't you want to look supernatural?
How many times do I need to repeat it, it looks supernatural because they have been primed to believe it is.
I don't have a multibillion naira generating organisation because I haven't hit upon an idea that will take me there. Jeff Bezos did and became the richest man in the world after starting from his garage, no supernatural input.
So what speed are you talking about? By the way Jeff Bezos started Amazon in 1994 and became richest man while Oyedepo is still probably just the richest pastor in Africa not even the richest man. So what exactly is the "supernatural" about his accomplishments?
Image123: Supernatural is something relating to God or attributed to God because it is phenomenal and unusual. Feeding 5,000 men is not necessarily supernatural, any government, politician, NGO, and philanthropist can do it. But when the mode is feeding 5,000 men from 5 loaves of bread, that is supernatural. It doesn't save anybody because those men can shout "crucify Him" in coming weeks. Building and buying don't save anybody too. Can God help you do something? Yes. Can God help you build a house? Certainly. Can God help you get a car or plane? Absolutely. Oyedepo is someone you can see almost every day. Just find him on YouTube, he's busy saying what God will help him do or what God has helped him do. Check him back in 6months or years time, God has helped him do what he said(prayers and faith). It's very clear and documented, no gimmicks or guess work. The speed, ease and efficiency is definitely not made in Nigeria. You can try to replicate any achievement of your choice with your team of "intelligent" atheists. Let's see how far. So what did you have in mind when you say that Oyedepo's results look supernatural?
I already said it looks supernatural because he has primed people to think it is. What speed are you talking about? That funds were available to carry out the tasks or the time it took? What was was unusual here?
I would attempt to achieve any of these results if I have a multibillion naira generating organisation.
oteneaaron: But if you go down history's lane you will find out that Jesus of the bible in reality, is not really as unique as we were meant to believe.
Go and do your research about other "Christo Messiah" figures from many cultures of antiquity that are way older than Jesus and Christianity for example, Horus, Dionysus, Zoroaster, and Mithras (you can start from these ones)...
You will find out that the birth, life and story of a Jesus, is an exact copy of these older "Christos Messiah" figures from antiquity.
To help in your research, download and study these books - -
1. Who is this King of Glory? By Alvin Boyd Khun
2. Misqoting Jesus by Bart D. Ehrman
3. The Pagan Christ by Tom Hapur
Do yourself a favor, take sometime and read these books written by world-renowned religious historians.
Remember that when you do research, you are doing it for yourself, and not for anybody else.
We all owe it to ourselves to ask questions and do research to find out why we are doing exactly what we are doing.
We must question everything we have been led to believe.
There is no need to be scared of what you will find out during and after your research, because there are only TWO possibilities -
1. It is either you realize that all you have been taught to believe all your life has been a big fat lie, or
2. The information you will garner from this research, will make your faith as a Christian and belief in your God even firmly rooted.
Are you willing to take this challenge?
Download the three books I mentioned above, study it and if you want, you can create a thread to either support or dispute your findings from any of these books.
Are willing to take up this challenge??
He is not going to read any book his cult hasn't approved and definitely not any one that seems to be critical of the foundations of his beliefs. He needs to maintain his illusions after all.
DeepSight: You know, this mechanistic response truly wearies me. Because the question is one of experience - i.e: if a machine were to eat an orange (however conceivable that is) would it experience the citrus flavour associated with the orange in the way a living thing would. That is the question, not what you keep presenting which looks evasive to me. Its always easy to reel off the scientific process by which a machine could be said to have been programmed to respond to a given stimuli, and machines indeed can be so programmed. This is altogether different from having the actual experience in the way a living being does. At the end of the day it boils down to pre-programmed reaction for a machine and this has nothing whatsoever to do with experiencing a thing. What you are doing is as simple and as wrong as saying that a machine which can be programmed to react to some stimuli by saying "hooray" has therefore experienced happiness or exultation. This is a very wrong argument to make, and what baffles and tires me is that you cannot see that this is essentially what you have been doing all along the way.
Again you are doing the very thing I complained about the last time, attributing motive to me where you have no basis to. I haven't balked at answering your questions and I have laid out my opinions consistent with my methodological materialist naturalist viewpoint. How this translates to me being evasive is downright false and not mildly annoying. If you are not happy to hear my opinion then maybe we shouldn't be having a conversation.
And you have to be consistent all the way, I neednt keep repeating the varied spectrum of emotions available to a human to underscore the point (. . . what about guilt?). But it strikes me that this is what you did with pain when you defined it as hypersensitivity to an adverse event. This is a very strange definition of pain which does not take into account that which is understood by everybody as pain: the sensation of hurt. If you simply say hypersensitivity to an adverse event, the truth is that humans are so complex that they could experience joy or even sexual arousal at an adverse event. Nor does "hypersensitivity" say anything about being actually hurt. It simply indicates a high sensitivity which could even be pleasure. You took the word "pain" and forcefully made it "machine-compliant" describing it as something completely unrecognizable. It is of course possible to make a machine recognize an adverse event and react to it, but that is an altogether different precept from saying that it feels pain. When something so self-evidently lucid is pointed out to you guys, you say that one is being myopic, one is making baseless statements, etc and thats that. Its quite wearisome.
Nowhere did I mention hypersensitivity, I said hypersignals they are not the same thing. If you can't be bothered to get what I wrote right what is the point of continuing with this?
Perhaps I have said enough on this point of experiencing things for now and should now devote some time rather to asking you guys about the capability of machines in respect of moralization, ethics and conscience. Can a machine have a conscience. And please dont answer this question with the mechanistic falsity I have described above: by saying perhaps, that a machine can react to an error by correcting itself and then saying that this is conscience. Please don't redefine "conscience" to make it "machine-compliant" and thus render it something completely unrecognizable as you have done with "pain."
Conscience is not something that we know how to explain or how its mechanisms function therefore I cannot relate it to a machine. However your prejudice shows very clearly and I think at this point I will no longer respond to you on this issue.
DeepSight: A subjective experience is one within the internal self-consciousness of a living being, it is the actual act or process of "living through" something such that the living being feels the nature of the happeningwhich is impressed on the being in a live manner such that it has personal awareness of the happening as it occurs.Such an experience comes with the personal feelings, thoughts and nuances of the moment which it provokes within the being.
Consequently a subjective experience cannot be translated or transmitted to another person. Only the experiencer has the unique nuance and flavour of it. Even if you and I experience an armed robbery together, our experiences will not be the same. Neither will it be possible to give you my experience of it. I can tell you a story about how I felt, but you could never be me, the experiencer. This is why it is impossible to say that something preprogrammed is a subjective experience. Anything preprogrammed is already objectively known outside of the personal experience of the experiencer. Indeed it is known before the experiencer experiences it. This is why Diridiri should understand the absurdity of his statement about pre-programming a subjective experience. It is a contradiction in terms. He himself said somewhere that we are each caged within our subjective experience of the world and this is true. It dumbfounds me that he then fails to see the contradiction in suggesting that subjective experience can be pre-programmed. There is nothing subjective about such, ab initio.
Ergo, a machine which is programmed cannot have subjective experiences.
Then it was pointless asking us if machines can have subjective experience since your definition precludes machines. Machines are not living beings so by your definition they can't have subjective experiences yet you are asking us and get frustrated by our responses. You should stop this line of enquiry since you are not open to our POV.
DeepSight: It has nothing to do with you knowing that it is not taste in the same sense?
Nope. Taste is the response chemicals on your tongue induce in your brain, if certain parts of your anatomy are affected you loose that functionality as with Covid for example. Machines may not have a tongue but chemicals can still be made to elicit a response from the processing core. That is why I put taste in quote.
