basilico: Is the issue about whether Buhari was banned or the overreach of twitter. Twitter and FB And Google need big kick in the ass. They are protected because they donate to leftist causes.
As the interactive charts accompanying this article show, Google representatives attended White House meetings more than once a week, on average, from the beginning of Obama’s presidency through October 2015. Nearly 250 people have shuttled from government service to Google employment or vice versa over the course of his administration.
How did Twitter overreach by deleting a tweet they say breaches their terms and conditions?
What has Google got to do with Twitter for crying out loud?
Image123: Adam and Eve died obviously. Is that why you their son has a problem with your spirit? You can only feel your flesh which is an ordinary earthern vessel. Man was made primarily as a Son of God the Father of spirits.
benalvino2: Removed how? You cannot ban a president who does not say anything remotely close to the leader of Iran and keep the leader.
I don't understand what you mean.
Are you not seeing why they have backlash? Even those tweets they removed stood there for months. They only remove because they are being called out for double standards
You said the tweet did not violate Twitter now you've moved to something else. BTW what backlash? Twitter does not automatically remove tweets they have to be flagged.
BassReeves: Exactamundo, but you still havent said what fault or flaw was there in the compassion shown you in that given scenario
You'd be surprised how many people everyday turn the blind eye, feign not seeing and crossing to the other side of the road avoiding the chance to give assistance, a helping hand, relief or succour
Not necessarily my answer, but the available body of facts and information laid before us to see
While I usually don't care about intentions when people do acts of compassion, it can be argued that some people's intentions might constitute a flaw. Take our politicians for instance and the way they distribute rice and money to their constituents when election time rolls around or those who pretend to offer aid so they can kidnap the recipient or use them for some other nefarious purposes.
BassReeves: What fault or flaw is there, in the empty and compassion on you in that scenario above given of coming to your aid, after you fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped you naked, beat and wounded you, and went away, leaving you half dead alongside the road, where later on, I approached you, treated your wounds, cleaned, dressed and bandage your wounds up?. Do you find any fault or flaw in bringing you in my car to a hotel, to take more care of you?
That is compassion you just described, people show compassion everyday so if that is the true religion then you have your answer.
BassReeves: I have given you at least two, namely empathy without flaws and compassion without fault, now you too please reciprocate with the several others you have. Thanks in advance for obliging.
I don't know of any human practice that has no fault or is flawless.
BassReeves: Religion that God, our Father, accepts as pure, true, faultless and unblemished as is expressed in outward acts are all that has to do with having empathy, kindness, love and compassion on others
Can you justify me be taxed for having compassion on you and come to your aid, after you fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped you naked, beat and wounded you, and went away, leaving you half dead alongside the road? Would you think, its appropriate, I be levied for approaching you, treat your wounds, clean, dress and bandage up them up? Do you reckon, it should be OK to levy me a tax, for bringing you in my car to a hotel, to take more care of you?
Personally, I know that pure, true, faultless and unblemished, as is expressed in benevolent outward acts like done towards you, in the posed questions above that you dodged giving your response to, shouldn't be financially taxed by the state, civil authority etc, it should be tax free.
If this is how to identify true religion then there is no one true religion, there are several that meet this criteria.
basilico: You can sau death tp the Jews and America twitter does not censor you.
Say HCL or other drugs like Ivermectin works for covid and twitter suppresses you or outright bans you. Say covid-19 was lab engineered and twitter would ban you. Twitter is pushing a narrative. They will censor anyone going against their narrative.
BassReeves: 1. What didnt happen? 2. Are you saying that Adam and Eve didnt immediately experience spiritual death? 3. Are you insinuating that it wasn't in that day that Adam and Eve stopped living? 4. Are you saying that in that day Adam and Eve ate of the fruit, they surely didnt become a living dead or walking dead? 5. Are you saying the spirit man in Adam didnt die (i.e. severance of its links with the Spirit, that God is)
Nobody died the day they ate the fruit in the tale.
Image123: Are you that blind that you did not just read what you quoted? Same way you look for one you've being with all day. SMH. #Blind. Hope you don't send the acrimonious video yet again.
benalvino2: Who are those misbehaving? By your own standards did he mention Igbos?
Look, I don't like the guy. I hate the tweet even but tweeter claiming it violated their terms is a lie. If it does tell me where in his statement it violated their terms.
Violent threats policy Overview
March 2019
You may not threaten violence against an individual or a group of people. We also prohibit the glorification of violence.
Healthy conversation is only possible when people feel safe from abuse and don’t resort to using violent language. For this reason, we have a policy against threatening violence on Twitter. We define violent threats as statements of an intent to kill or inflict serious physical harm on a specific person or group of people. What is in violation of this policy?
Under this policy, you can’t state an intention to inflict violence on a specific person or group of people. We define intent to include statements like “I will”, “I’m going to”, or “I plan to”, as well as conditional statements like “If you do X, I will”. Violations of this policy include, but are not limited to:
threatening to kill someone; threatening to sexually assault someone; threatening to seriously hurt someone and/or commit a other violent act that could lead to someone’s death or serious physical injury; and asking for or offering a financial reward in exchange for inflicting violence on a specific person or group of people.
budaatum: A 'religion' that is right and proper will give to the tax man what is tax and give to Lord what is God's.
Basically, it will spend what is tax on that which tax should be spent on, like feeding the poor and helping the vulnerable, so that the tax man will see what it does and even give it a refund or more to do that which it does. That, my Lord, is what will be done and is what is done.
You will be surprised to find out how much the Nigerian, and UK and US governments give to religious organisations just because they do feed and educate the poor.
BassReeves: It can be. Can be construed as such, especially if it becomes habit forming
What matters is its integral part which can be empathy, compassion, virtuousness, selflessness etc
You are a poly religionist so I fail to see why you need to make any distinction between true and false religion, you practice both.
Though irrelevant, I'll dignify you a response by replying that all manner of what the word of religion is now known as, that are liable to taxation under a sovereign country's constitution are already being taxed.
Can you justify me be taxed for having compassion on you and come to your aid, after you fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped you naked, beat and wounded you, and went away, leaving you half dead alongside the road? Would you think, its appropriate, I be levied for approaching you, treat your wounds, clean, dress and bandage up them up? Do you reckon, it should be OK to levy me a tax, for bringing you in my car to a hotel, to take more care of you?
Personally, I know that sort of religion shouldn't be financially taxed by the state, civil authority etc, it should be tax free.
So the religion you decide is the correct one should be tax free? If religion is tax free does it mean it is correct or if it is taxed does it mean it wrong?
HappyPagan: Thanks for airing your concern. The Nairaland Department of Fuckgiving will be sending you an email attached with a few complimentary bleeps from me.
budaatum: It is more than funny, my Lord. It shows how devious that which is refered to as satan can be. It meddled in heaven and turned some angels into demons, we read. It entered Eden and made out it was God when it can not possibly have been God for God can not have a need for ignorant slaves! It writes a book and enters our minds to blind us to what we clearly see for ourselves. And then it sends us out to preach its lies and deceit to the multitude so we will crucify the Christ it failed to tempt to bow down and worship it!
But God does not forsake us. The lies can not hide the truth just as darkness can not ever overcome the Light. But we must ask and knock and seek with all our hearts and souls and minds and beings in order to see, and then, as that Muttleylaff's siggy whom I so miss used to say, and as is written in the words that the living Jesus spoke which was hidden least we read with our own eyes and our minds open:
Jesus says: “The one who seeks should not cease seeking until he finds. And when he finds, he will be dismayed. And when he is dismayed, he will be astonished. And he will be king over the All. For Whoever finds the meaning of these words will not taste death.” Gospel of Didymos Judas Thomas
May we all have mud rubbed in our eyes so we may go wash in the Pool of Siloam and may see!
Hey what happened to good old Muttleylaff? Haven't seen him comment in a long while.
My Lord, do know that you are the first to see Eve for what she is. The next phase is to show how Mary taught Jesus to become a High Priest of Wisdom too, and why we must follow him in order to do greater things than he did instead of making an idol of him and stupidly bowing down to worship it!
May I eat the fruit of this wisdom and my eyes opened my dear buda.
budaatum: You both are using 'religion' to rightly mean "an understanding by which a life is lived", as well as in the sense of "that which is religiously done", as in done diligently and regularly, like posting on Nairaland.
Fact is, one can practise any religion, which in itself may be right or wrong, in a right or wrong way. One could for instance be a Muslim who murders or a Lord Lord Christian who can't turn the other cheek once or a footballer who does not train instead of a Muslim who follows the five pillars of the faith or a Christian who loves one's neighbours and ones enemies even more so or a footballer who regularly trains to hone her skills.
Noisy gongs and clanging cymbals, you see, can exist in just about everything we do mindlessly and wrong, so doing right whatever one does matters a lot.
Yes my dear buda but then he attempts a distinction between true and false religion while practicing both. That is a monumental contradiction.
BassReeves: Notice Adam and Eve never questioned God that they are not dead after eating the fruit of the tree, solely because as I already have shared, they in an instant, did spiritually die, only for physical death to be trotting right behind spiritual death to make its entrance.
Is it funny that the one who said, in that day you will surely die but that didn't happen, is the one you consider truthful, while the one who said, you won't die but your eyes will be open and it happened, is the one you consider a liar.
BassReeves: Exactmundo. Hole in one. However would you say they are pure and true religions, religion with flaw or fault?
Anything can be religion, so far its a pursuit, but is it virtuous?
So yeah being on Nairaland is a religion. What does it matter which is true when all you do is a religion of one form or another? You are a poly religionist anyway.
BTW lemme ask you do you think religion should be taxed or tax free?
DavidAO: Lol, it’s ok. I understand your premises. Well if you have read any of my publications you’ll see I don’t tell you what anything is. Your stance is bc you’re judging my words without actually see it. That affects your ability to judge me fairly.
Life is a place of realization. Everyone must realize themselves irrespective whether or not they wish too. That’s the whole point of judgement. A person must realize themselves now, later or at the point of death. Whether they like it or not.
That’s said, I try not to appreciate wiki or any answer there is about life unless the one that genuinely comes from a responder. If a responder answers me with their own answers, whether right or wrong, then it’s a necessary to correct them or learn from them.
When a person tells you to go check wiki for an answer, you’ll know they did not reflect on such issue which is bad for growth for either of us bc. it’ll just be an external person’s reality that creates our reality. If you see the way I highlighted my reply to the dear fellow, you’ll observe I did my research on the matter before talking. Which is how everyone should endeavor to do to things, even the ones they think they already know.
Life is a place of deception. The illusion sector is the most expensive sector of the world. If you were aware of this, you’d understand what I’m saying. Every information you can possibly find is already tainted. The only information that’s genuine comes from you and I and it’s ok to welcome such, However wrong or right. A person who realizes he’s wrong is he who has grown but the one who doesn’t continue in the same stagnant place. No one who’s come to awareness appreciate wiki or the popular things thought in educations bc it’s all just a deception. Do ur research too on this.
We’re all learning here you know? Neither of us already knows everything, if we did then we should be already dead. I called out Mr. Buda pattern of response bc it’s the popular pattern of response. People not wanting to be wrong so they go online to pick a point and stand on it whereby causing an unnecessary mental rancor when there shouldn’t. See if I do not know anything then I do not discus on it. I’ll rather ask questions and I suppose every reasonable person does that too.
What the dear fellow said was that he’d either learn or teach. I happen to know the topic of subject and I corrected his actions by stating the obvious which he did and said, most people are deceived for his kind of actions. And yes most people are deceived for such actions. Aren’t they? This shouldn’t cause a rancor for anyone who wishes to learn. If it did, you’re the culprit here.
Lastly, I introduced my publications not bc I had told anyone what life is. It’s ok if you’re presumptions on it. Don’t worry, one day, you’ll get to read something of mine as the Lord lives and you’ll see how I write. I do not draw a conclusion whatsoever about life, I just explain the things we can all see in a way that any reader will come to their own realization of the truth.
How will my writings create the spur for a reader when I already made the conclusion for them? I don’t tell anyone what life is. I write to help people realize the truth. My contents is to help people become aware of the things they never notice, and that’s just about all I do.
I do not think you realize that I actually did take a part of the law of thermodynamics the other day. It’s not like I didn’t know what I did. We view life from different angles and as such our reality must be different. You can claim not to know what the universe is. That’s ok for you. For me, I have become aware of certain things that has affected my knowledge of the universe or the earth. So I didn’t misquote anything. I just used the information as relevant as needed. Even if Einstein was alive today, he’d have realized better but his followers are trapped in his view of almost a century ago.
You actually attacked me from the very first time of our encounter and I see that you did bc I’m explaining reality in a different way. That’s what I do man. I know you might not know this yet but that’s what I do. I open up life in a way that anyone can feed on it. I try to expound on things we know and break complex illusions to help everyone see life better
If you can move pass this, get a copy of my work pls. And If you do not think you can move pass this. May peace find you and also rest with me ���
This was in your response to buda:
I also use this medium to introduce my publication to you. It’s titled the science of God and life. If you have a little token to spare and the time to read and explore what life is, get a copy at the link below. It’s more packed than anything you’ve ever seen.
You make it clear that you have unique insights of what life is or do you deny that?
My first response to you:
LordReed: This a misquote of the law of conservation of energy. The proper statement is: The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system is constant; energy can be transformed from one form to another, but can be neither created nor destroyed.
It specifies an isolated system, we have no knowledge of what type of system the universe is nor do we know what type of system it was when it was in the hot dense state prior to the big bang.
I didn't attack you, I corrected an often misquoted science fact.
I am always willing to discuss without acrimony but when you write bullcrap I won't hesitate to call it what it is.
