Everybody's eyes is just on church money. You people should not start robbing church o. How much is the offering that you people will not remove your eyes from it.

I'm definitely going to open a rebuttal thread on this. Hopefully before Sunday I should be able to do it and I will quote those who love quoting Bible wrongly.

frank317:
Stop encouraging the op's folly, don't act like u are looking for a husband just as long as he is religious. The questions presented by the Op are dumb and that's what I expect a reasonable girl like u to point out at least to help the young man's life.

Hehehe... .. .. .. enshy is making sense. The reason why you're not seeing it is because you don't believe in God.

Flamezreal:
Are you planning to buy one, and how relevant is this your question in this age?

I'm telling you. Slave in 21st century?

enshy:
May the God you serve reward all your labour in Him!
Atheism has only drawn me closer to God/Christ.
The height of fraud in it makes me sober and thank God I found life in Him.
Atheism has no solutions and answers, it thrives in criticisms...
Its simply and purely empty!

Amen! I'm telling you.

davien:
Who knows for sure?
The only way we find out accurate things though is science,so I'll wait till they do, it's more worthwhile than religious concepts which are so fantasy based they crumble even from elementary scrutiny.

You're not up to date . So you have not read of the evolvement of man from primate to home-sapien. Please when you're ready to accept it as fact let me know.

After death organic matter decays, or is fossilized and/or embalmed, if you're hinging toward believing in fantasy afterlifes, go right on ahead, it soothes us humans that life isn't vanity that we'll get rewarded after living.

I wonder where pre-colonialized Africans thought they'll go to after death, ancestors probably..

Oh! So there's no evidence that there's no afterlife? Science have not discovered where our spirit go to or do they also fossilized?

To the best of my understanding of what you're trying to say,laws of nature or naturalistic laws are mostly cause and effect.
The laws that we've observed in nature are but occurrences that hold true under specific circumstances, outside those circumstances they may not hold true or may even be broken or bent.

An example is though light speed is unattainable with any body with mass, space can be warped to the extent of carrying masses to and fro above such speeds...though the only capable forces of that magnitude are black holes.

This is scientific jargons....... .... . Speak English so that I'll be able to ask you questions.

You've been told countless times atheism is a rejection of theism,of belief itself...hence atheism teaches no morals, though it often encourages critical thinking.

What critical thinking? It's only when it comes to the Bible, you applied your thinking process. Imagine the jargons you paste up there... ... I can bet with everything I have that you won't be able to say it in simple English and explained the application.

Atheism has no history or better still atheism has been existing in accordance with every religious belief.
You yourself are atheist to all religions aside yours, I'm just atheist to all of them.

Atheism has no history. It is not organized. Therfore it should not be compare to other religious organization.

This is trolling for sure as everything you list is a "concept", probably looking to drag this topic into 20 pages with useless dribble.
Man interacts with nature same way every living thing does, stimuli..

You are still not getting the OP's point. You are copying and pasting everything you learnt inside a textbook without questioning it and you have the gut to question we that believe in the Bible unconditionally.

Seriously? People care to that extent? Honestly it's only on Nairaland I get to see people who are Atheist. Probably because it's an unorganized belief system. It's not even a system.. .. I will call it a thinking with no basis.

At the risk of generalising, It is evident that the most religious societies in the world have the higher percentage of morally bankrupt persons

This is a simplistic view of relationship between religion and the society. It's society like Nigeria that put the problem of corruption on religion rather than the government. The problem of moral decadence on religion rather than on families. The problem of society decadence on religion rather than you and I.

The reason why religion is a scape goat is because every other areas of our lives have failed ... .. Education failed, system of government failed, economy failed. If it has been working you won't think of the religion.

OP, you're one of the problem, you focused so much on religion who has no access to money rather than our politicians who are going away with murder. Instead of holding our politican responsible, you are blaming religion that has no legal duties to provide schools, good roads, stabilize the economic etc.

On Sundays, "slay queens" go to Church and dance even more than the pastor. That same evening, the "slay queen" puts on scanty clothing and probably heads for a secret rendezvous with the same pastor.

I know when it comes to church's issue, you always see the cup of empty. But have you ever wondered why despite the level of poverty, we were rated one of the happiest country... .. .. religion. Have you ever wondered at the low rate of suicide compare to so called developed countries..... Religion. Have you ever wondered at the high level of hopes of Nigerians..... Religion. Have you ever wondered why Nigerian's spirit seems so unbreakable.. ... .. . Religion.

Religion at his worst happened when people start getting indoctrinated and it happened because other areas of our life have failed.

See: THE FIRE FROM WITHIN, by Carlos Castaneda.]

There is much more to Creation than you can know or imagine- because you do not have the Spiritual Energy to activate all of your fibre content, and because even if you did, you would not have the fibre content in common with some 96% of Mortally-Accessible Bands to be able to PERCEIVE them, or CONCEIVE OF them, or RECALL having done so.

Attempting to perceive the Fibres for prolonged periods of time causes a reaction that will destroy one's Soul Body. The COCCOON ruptures, spilling its contents- which is DEATH.

Christians haff suffered. Anyway my questions
Who the heck is Carlos Castaneda?
What's is his relationship with God? Because obviously he doesn't believe in God.
How did he come into conclusion all humans don't have all the spiritual energy to access their Fibre content?
What's Fibre content?
How many people did he use to carry out his research?
What sampling instruments did he use to carry out his research?
What's mortally accessible band?

Honestly I don't understand this thread hopefully answers to my questions will open my eyes of understanding.

HardMirror:
Forget about what I am.
Do you have all answers? Or does anyone?
I am making an hypothesis here. So let's do some digging and see what we come up with

I don't o but I'll be holding my breath, hopefully I won't die of suffocation. Atheists food is ready, where are thou?

highscript:
you really want to see them ?
are you ready to spend a little ?

Where is the place? Have you ever been there?

HardMirror:
That is exactly why I created this thread. But I see a lot of sense in their existence.
It is even likely life did not start on earth as we know it, we could be a product of an extraterrestrial biosphere.

Let's rewind... .. ... . You don't have answers to my questions and you came to a conclusion that we are a product of extraterrestrial biosphere. I hope you are not an Atheist?

I've heard of it and I've a lot of unanswered questions

What similarities do they have with man?

Where can it be found?

Who has seen one before? If not who has seen at least an image?

How was it created?

Do they die?

How do they reproduce?

Earth2Metahuman:
aabi o

Don't be surprised if this nonsense is pushed to frontpage

The lady in question self looks like a she male

That’s why I'm calling him out. Nairaland is sucking out the whole life out this story.

Is Bisi innocent? Can you imagine adulterers calling someone else adulterer. If there is justice in this world the only people who should comment are people who are pure and holy. I know is only 1 percent that will qualify.

NO!!!

Really? In religion section? Kindly leave the innocent child out of this mess created by his father.

So why are you opening a thread? is the babe a celebrity? Didn't you see a lot Nairalanders also supporting him?

This girl too get for hand. That's often what happened to gifted ministers. If you are not discipline the enemies will always look for a loophole to bring you down.

If there was never a relationship, she wouldn't have gone this far.

Stephanie sha must not abort the baby.. .. .. The unborn baby is the evidence that the Pastor have to clear his name.

enshy:
Yes I dont reason, Im a man of Faith!
You who reasons; tell me the origin/beginning of man/life and the end of it..
I dont want to hear I dont know but its not God!

OP answer the questions. So that we'll be able dissect your answer like the way you have dissect the Bible.

Let me come down to your level of argument

Didn't the patient pays for hospital bill?

Is the treatment done free of charge?

Is the Doctor not collecting his salary?

Are the people thanking God using your mouth to thank their God?

What's it to you, if they decide to give praise to their God?

Some people don't just mind their unorganized belief in no God

The lady must not abort the baby Ooooo. A paternity test must be done. If I'm the Pastor, I'll publicly announced that the lady must not abort the baby.

Why are people defending the man of God? Is he not a man? If it's true, let him resign and apologize to the church............ That’s if the church is truly a church of God and not of man.

CatfishBilly:
Did I derail the thread? You can see the constructive discussion I'm having with Wilgrea7 regarding the thread.

Then why did you quote me if you don't have answers to my questions.

Okayyy.. .. .. .. Ist of all, Atheist is not a religion, is not even an organized movement. So trying to be an Atheist is an illusion that has a brief ending.

Now To the main crust, from your post it shows you're serving God for the wrong reason. Actually most times challenges bring people to God but knowing God makes you stick to him.

Bros, you've not known God. Why do I say so Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose.

If you've known him you will realize, for you not to have received the answers to your request there must be a reason. If you've also known God, you will serve him unconditionally and not because you want something from him.

You are forgiven because you're a baby Christian and God recognize it. But what request did you make to God?

[quote author=CatfishBilly post=54313173][/quote]Please don't derail this thread. If you have issue you want to raise, kindly open a new thread.

CandidSeeker:
The 'model' of The Early Church is not what is running in our country today.

The issue is that of MOTIVE:
-The leaders are only using The Name of Jesus to make themselves important. The are running ministry as business and in competition with world standards.
-The gullible followers are deceived into focusing on self and personal needs instead of being reasonable like 'The Berean Christians'.

-Peace.

Please stop generalizing. If you're truly a Christian you would have read Matt 24:24

24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

Inasmuch there are false prophets, God is also raising up his own army.

dplordx:
SMH. Like there was any chronicled stories of Jesus childhood. Jesus is no one role model, he's beyond human comparism... How many of his followrrs are willing to die on a cross?

So didn't read Luke 2: 41,42 and 46
41 Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem for the Festival of the Passover. 42 When he was twelve years old, they went up to the festival, according to the custom. 46 After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions.

OP, nice thread.. .. .. .. I've dash you 1 like

ifyan:
Who am not to accept your apology.

Remember what our told us

Life is beautiful ( good )

Indeed it is.

ifyan:
Read the post again.

I am not denying Christ but for atheist to see some proof because some of them with the view try to proof order wise

Kindly accept my apologies. Let me re-direct my questions to the Atheist.

Deu 26:19... ... .. his covenant towards me.

And today God has reaffirmed that you are dearly held treasure just as he promised, a people entrusted with keeping his commandments, a people set high above all other nations that he’s made, high in praise, fame, and honor: you’re a people holy to God, your God. That’s what he has promised.
