Christianity EtcRe: There Is A Logical Fallacy In The Argument That Mary Is The Mother Of God by LordReed2nd(m):
OLAADEGBU:
1. Mary is the mother of Jesus.

1.1. Response: This is definitely true as is verified in Scripture. The term "mother" must refer to the biological sense of Jesus because Mary did not precede the Word that became flesh (John 1:1, 14), nor is she the author of his divine essence.
In the theology was Jesus god while on earth? Was he god the day he was born?

It is obvious religious rules are a codification of the likes and dislikes of those who have acquired religious power.
Christianity EtcRe: Bishop Oyedepo Denied Visa By US Embassy by LordReed2nd(m): 10:19am On Jan 31, 2020
WILLuKPquiet:
You are the biggest Mumu here

Read well and see he was later issued.

Oyedepo dines and wines with people in the highest places world over.

He might even have direct contact of their president. That's a bitter pill for you to swallow.
Wait so while his followers have to pray to this their god for visa the Bishop can just call in a favour after being denied? LMFAO!

Greatest name?

Someone is being raped and forced to marry a terrorist, and you call that "making a great name for one's self"?
I said it here that faith makes people's reasoning to be warped, that is clear evidence right there.

your god is as useless as a white crayon
Even white crayon is more useful. At least it will show on coloured paper. The god can not even show itself for 0.01sec.

That's OK from your perspective.

People that approach life's issues with an open mind would see enough reasons in the posts I made above.

I don't have the luxury of time for further back-and-forth.
It is not my perspective at fault here. I ask for a reason to regard existence as god, you can't provide one yet you want to make it my fault? That is not possible. Articulate a reason why I should consider existence as god since you say our picture of god is flawed. You assert you know a way to correct the flaw so go ahead.

Hello athiestandproud, is there any bad thing you wanna say about God?

Please do that quickly as I would love to inherit your girlfriend and your land at Sokoh Estate.



From your brother,
Jason.
You posted fake news as proof that your god is a vengeful and pitiful being yet you think you made a point? LMFAO!

Yep your god is a fiction and fictions can't do shit. That's why followers like you stoop to posting fake news to promote your god. If there was a god capable of doing shit because people spoke out against it we would already know, not fake bogus stories.

gensteejay:
I think you're getting me wrong. I'm not asking you to acknowledge anything. I merely stated my opinion on a post made by the OP.

I don't do preaching, and it's none of my business if an adult chooses to be a nihilist or an atheist.

When an issue is being discussed on a public forum like Nl, I could state my opinion on the subject matter but that doesn't mean I seek to convert any part of the audience to embrace my own beliefs.

My beliefs are personal to me.
Well then, it is not unreasonable to not acknowledge such a god since no reason can be provided for its existence.
Christianity EtcRe: My Thoughts And Questions About Religion by LordReed2nd(m): 11:10pm On Jan 29, 2020
gensteejay:
I won't be able to offer you the kind of answer (or evidence) you seek.

It's like you asking me to show you subatomic particles exist by looking at them.

That's not possible, and the fact that we can't see these extremely tiny particles does not mean they don't exist.

In the same vein, the fact that the human brain cannot grasp all that's in existence (to be a single Universal Consciousness or God) doesn't mean the idea is bogus.
Why should I care about something that can not be articulated into something intelligible? You say I should acknowledge all of existence as god but can't give a reason why?
Christianity EtcRe: My Thoughts And Questions About Religion by LordReed2nd(m): 10:14pm On Jan 29, 2020
gensteejay:
Your question seems to border on nihilism. Why would one deny the entire existence simply because the term, God, has been abused and bastardized by religions?

It's more reasonable and logical to acknowledge Infinite Intelligence or Universal Consciousness than to deny it.

There comes a time in one's life when logic will not be enough to handle some life's issues.

There's more to life than meets the eye, and life is far more mysterious and deeper than religion or atheism paints it.

The current scientific understanding of a number of key things is low.

Science has still not been to explain the following in detail:
What's the fate of humanity as a race: What is our origin and what is our ultimate destination?
What's consciousness?
Where do dead people go?
What's origin and evolution of the universe?
How do thoughts form in the human brain?

These are big questions, and I feel answering them will dramatically change how we see life and God (existence/first cause).
It is not nihilistic to ask what is the point of something.

Also you have not answered the question.
Christianity EtcRe: There Is A Logical Fallacy In The Argument That Mary Is The Mother Of God by LordReed2nd(m): 7:05pm On Jan 29, 2020
OLAADEGBU:
Logical Fallacy

A syllogism is a set of premises with a conclusion. Here is their syllogism about Mary....

1. Mary is the mother of Jesus.
2. Jesus is God.
3. Therefore, Mary is the mother of God.

Within this syllogism is the fallacy of equivocation. This fallacy occurs when a word or words change meaning in the usage of an argument.
Where in the syllogism is the equivocation?

Besides,if his secretary will cause him to sin, he should let go..or if he can, let him set her up in another department where they dont have to interract
And the new secretary?
Christianity EtcRe: My Thoughts And Questions About Religion by LordReed2nd(m): 5:30pm On Jan 29, 2020
gensteejay:
Intelligent piece.

As regards your question at the beginning of this post, I feel the way atheists regard God is flawed, though in a much lesser degree than religionists.

When one understands that God is existence itself (not an entity in isolation controlling everything and everyone), that It is the all in all, and that religion is purely man-made, then many issues concerning God will bring less arguments.

Was the human brain God-designed? No, it's a tiny part of God, subject to change and evolution, just like everything else in existence is.
What would be the point of acknowledging the entire existence as God?

Seems u have the faith I’m referring to mixed up. Especially with ur description about the Leah situation. Then there are many areas faith defied logic and science bt ur denial/doubtful mindset won’t let u believe even when doctors and scientists had no explanations for why such occurred.

Im a big fan of science and faith equally.
Clear the mix up, what is the definition of faith you are using?

In what area has this faith you are talking about defied logic and science?
RomanceRe: Help! My Sister Is Overbossing Her Husband by LordReed2nd(m): 4:53pm On Jan 29, 2020
This is not your family so I advise you not to interfere. They are adults and can work their matter by theirselves.

If you are so compelled to speak then speak to your sister, she's the one who needs a cautioning. People who always get their way are damaging their relationships unwittingly. She may find herself in a situation that completely blindsides her because of her attitude.

U need to understand the concept of faith 1st and I’m not claiming to be an expert bt when science falls faith has be known to work.
Where did science fail and faith work?

Faith changes outcomes. Don’t ask me how..
Can be done without faith.

Corrects difficult situations.. May not happen in every case for certain reasons I can’t explain now.
Can be done without faith.

Heals ur mind, body and soul.
Mind and body can be healed without faith. Soul is another ephemeral concept that has no proof so is pretty much worthless.

So you cannot mention 5 things that can be achieved solely by faith.

Faith can work along with science also. They are not in opposition like sm people like to think.
That is because science works and does not need faith. Faith is a placebo for the mind and not a very good one at that anyway, it tends to corrupt reason and rationality. Leah is being held by people whose reason and rationality have been corrupted by faith.

And there are more. How it works isnt like a magic rabbit trick pls.
How does it work then? What results can you predict with certainty based on faith?

Why Are u mixing up things to confuse urself. I never said or implied u need faith to do everything, u have ur brain, memory, knowledge and senses they are not for decoration, Faith is applied where or when needed and that also works various levels and with understanding and even at that u can’t control everything. Nobody claims to be superhuman bt u can achieve certain things even beyond the ordinary applying right principles of faith.
You are the confused one here because I never said or implied you said you need faith for everything. Read my post again and understand it instead of jumping to unwarranted conclusions.

Simple question: name 5 things you can achieve with faith that you can't achieve without it.

Wondering why Atheists have stormed this page like bees on honey?

The truth is the Bible never said being Christian makes u Superman or a superhero like in the movies. There are unbelievable things God can do for u and there are normal human experiences u will/can face..

Jesus wept, he was hungry, he even died and people asked him why can’t he save himself to
Prove his the son of God.. The there was a greater plan and a bigger picture that the eyes of man cannot see, understand at the time or visualize.

I have studied my bibe and found it is the truest, most inspiring and powerful book u can read, people just don’t know how to read it, lack wisdom and knowledge of the truth.

Atheists come here and scream there is no God like they are the 1st to say this, when we have had such people and opinion since more 3000 years, the Bible says there is nothing knew under the earth and only a fool will say there is no God.

So who made the earth, sky and earthly creatures and even celestial beings? Big Bang theory my ass. U all need to wake up, the concept of faith is not far from science as it seems. Even since can’t explain everything and even most things.
Truth is the Bible makes you Christians think you have supernatural powers or that you can access it in some form or the other. When things like this happe, it goes to remind you that you are living in a fools paradise if you do believe.

The Bible is a collection of fables, what ever thing you think can be gotten from it can be gotten elsewhere.

I'd rather you show me evidence for your god. If that is what it means to be a fool then yes I'd rather be that than to believe fairytales that have no shred of evidence.

You are pressing your device to read and respond, how much faith did you exercise to perform that simple task. Anybody saying science needs faith is only saying that to console their self because they know faith is a miserable concept and they looking to rope science in to feel good about themselves.
IslamRe: How Existence Of Male And Female Prove The Existence Of God by LordReed2nd(m): 1:37pm On Oct 14, 2019
Asexual reproduction is found in nearly half of the animal phyla.[25] Parthenogenesis occurs in the hammerhead shark[26] and the blacktip shark.[27] In both cases, the sharks had reached sexual maturity in captivity in the absence of males, and in both cases the offspring were shown to be genetically identical to the mothers. The New Mexico whiptail is another example.

Some reptiles use the ZW sex-determination system, which produces either males (with ZZ sex chromosomes) or females (with ZW or WW sex chromosomes). Until 2010, it was thought that the ZW chromosome system used by reptiles was incapable of producing viable WW offspring, but a (ZW) female boa constrictor was discovered to have produced viable female offspring with WW chromosomes.[28] The female boa could have chosen any number of male partners (and had successfully in the past) but on these occasions she reproduced asexually, creating 22 female babies with WW sex-chromosomes.

IslamRe: Challenge Of The Quran : Produce The Like Of This Quran by LordReed2nd(m): 5:29pm On Mar 19, 2019
usermane:
Encrypting codes is not the same as embedding numeric patterns within a coherent prose. The challenge is for you to create a text book with so many sentences permeated with such an extensive numeric pattern.

NB: I may have reservations for the Numerical miracle but I got to admit it does seem quite extraordinary.
This is the point there is nothing extraordinary about it if something else surpasses it and we don't call the superior one extraordinary. Besides spies do this all the time, what exactly is the quranic version supposed to then show? That the God knows how to count?

True. A perfect God creating a perfect universe will not need to dictate any laws.

My subjective take
Allah knows all possiblities and outcomes, but allows for "free willed" creations to choose their path.
I like how you put free will in quotes because the religious concept of freewill is like an oxymoron. How is something free if you pay for it?

That is an ignorant claim. The Quran was written more than 600years after Jesus, men have been sailing the seas way longer than that.
