fair

but what is the essence of enacting laws if not for it to serve as a deterant/discourage from what is bad?

muslims make the same argument for cutting the hands of theives

*Jesus stressed on obeying the law and giving unto ceaser
-Atheists have the least proportional representation in prison

[quote author=E_monkey]So what is the purpose of your thread? Was it created out of joblessness?[/quote]To inform people of the hypocrisy........

Sweetnecta: he rolls eyes like a sissy. maybe the middle finger is being pointed at you this time for yo mama joke.
just maybe.

Irony.....a man calling himself "sweetnecta" (a very gay name) is calling another man a sissy? LMAO!

ifeness: they came with full force,did their dirty jobs and still resides in the mind of our people

agreed. 100%

Pastor AIO: christianity, Islam, Judaism (baha'i) came from the middle east. These 3/4 are not all the religions in the world.


How can we say all religions came from the middle east. Where we there when the religions were being invented?

If religion is a natural activity to man then wouldn't it make sense that man would find a way to practice religion wherever he was regardless of whether or not he is in contact with the middle east?

What are your evidences that a religion like Ifa had it's origin in the middle east?

Fire on, brother!

issehfresh: @truthislight...what macdaddy01 is trying to tell u is that your wife and the 'someone' sleeping with her are supposed to be ADULTS not kids.and so they AGREED to tango behind ur back for whatever reason. She was not molested per say and so this may only be regarded as a serious wrong, if you must not a serious crime.Afterall sex is only natural, I mean irrespective of what persons involved.The difference here being that she had 'ARTIFICIALLY' promised to only be with u for the rest of her life. (by way of marriage which is nothing but an institution,if u know what I mean ) thus that does not make the 'ACT ITSELF' a crime...

Thank you! you too much!

[quote author=E_monkey]Lmao. So what purpose is this thread meant to serve? As an avenue for atheists to snicker indulgently at theists while they tell themselves that they are more intelligent and logical for being irreligious? [/quote]Oh noes! E-monkey has exposed me! He has foiled my plot to demean theists and engage in elitist debauchery

*rolls eyes*

No, I am not trolling. Let us stop and think.


*Jesus talked about the good Samaritan, an unbeliever who helped a stranger.
-When atheists help less fortunate people, they do it because they want to and not for some reward. Good for goodness sake


*Jesus suffered persecution and yet he didnt kill his enemies
-atheists are one of the most hated and distrusted group of people, yet they do not do terrorism in the name of their God like christians (Brevik) and muslims

*Jesus never asked for tithes or offering, he only asked for what was needed for his ministry
-atheist dont ask for tithes or offering, even when they ask for donations, it is for a clear purpose and not fo profit/private jets/mansions

*Jesus was salvation. He brought a change into many people's lives
-Technology is a kind of salvation. Technology has changed our lives. I am talking to you with the help of technology. Most scientists and technology people (Bill gates, Zuckerberg) are atheists.




lol.......

truthislight: very much unlike you.

Why not stand up for "what is right" here?

Adultery is wrong but should never be criminalised

onetrack: Someone saying "You are being deceived by Satan"

lol...."Evolution is from Satan". That has to be my favourite christian nonsensical statement!

D sage: Your first paragraph is quite insultive and lacked basis for constructive criticism/argument. If you were not agreed with my comments, the best thing you ought to do is to prove me wrong with your and not by using abusive word on me.

Remember this's religion section and not jokes, romance/sexuality sections where we can just say what suits our feelings when commenting.

And one more thing you must know is that, no sensible NL members would comment in this section without any source of information. We all depends on various histories/sources to obtain fact, which might be true/false.

@ The first people were from Africa and most far asian religions were older than those of middle east.

Were you part of the said first people? Does any religions actually started in the generation you're part of? Since you and I were not there then,how do we know the truth?

Sorry, for the abuse!

However, there is nothing I hate than when a Nigerian gives credit to foreigners while neglecting and insulting his forefathers. How one can claim that African traditional religions came from the middle east is beyond me.

issehfresh: Those 'two' religion amuse me the most!

lol...how so?

The OP: They eact point a finger , forgeting that the remaining 4 fingers point at them.

lmao! how true!

They prefer to point out problems in other religions than to face their own

[quote author=tpia@]@ topic

more like why has God made some people's gumption [or the lack of it] so thick.[/quote]lolololol.


Morelike why are people so foolish to believe fairytales?


Talking snake? lmao

truthislight: ^^^^
so, some one sleeping with my wife is NOT a seriouse crime?

Mmmmm!

Rape and adultery are two different things.

Think before you talk

frosbel: I can never hate you 'ol chap.

But when you insult people to make a point , it can no longer be called a civil debate.

Words used so far by you on me :

[b]1.[/b]Foolish Frosbel thinking

[b]2.[/b]Your stupidity has been highlighted.

I stand corrected!

Thank you.

frosbel: Nope, who am I to ban you,I will simply refuse to engage you in further or future debates.

In other words, grow up !!

Frosbel, why do you hate me so?

A little debate and you rebuke me?

Please comment here;

frosbel: Your Juvenile outbursts are remarkable, anyhow this story was written for the foolish among us who stand for our 'silly' faith .

I am unsure how this concerns you or impacts your heroic life !

Anyway I will not entertain any further arguments on this matter.

What are you going to do? Ban me?

truthislight: is making it a criminal offence not to create a deterrent?

No a criminal offence is punishment for a serious crime.


Use your brain

frosbel: Martyrdom is dying for something you believe in. In this context,the boy did not go looking for death , he simply stood for his faith and was killed !

What did you expect him to say ? Perhaps him reciting Allahu Akbar might have saved his life , instead he stood on principles and what he believed in and was killed.

In the past we had Hindu Martyrs, Buddhist Martyrs and even communist Martyrs , people who did not go looking for death but died for refusing to denounce their faith.

On the contrary in some aspects of Islam , the radical ones actively look for death in battle while killing others, this is their definition Martyrdom.

Not everyone stands for nothing !

Foolish Frosbel thinking #1
-Atheists stand for nothing. Wrong. Every atheist has his own philosphy and ideas on life. Some choose to be humanitarians, some choose to be hedonists etc



Foolish Frosbel thinking #2
-Martyrdom has a reward. Wrong. There is no evidence for God or a second life. You will die for an imaginary god


Foolish Frosbel thinking #3
-Christian matryrdom is different from muslim matyrdom. Wrong. Both of you sacrifice you own life when you could live for tomorrow. There are innocent muslims persecuted in Burma.

truthislight: ^^^^ imagine that

sure hope you will never complain if you come to know that some one is sleeping with your wife.

Dumbazz, just because something is not criminal, it doesnt it make it right.


Adultery is wrong but should never be criminalised.

Interesting questions get interesting answers.


Asking a Muslim about history;

1) How did christianity come to Nigeria?

Muslim; European christian slave traders brought it in the 16th century.


2) How did islam come to Nigeria?

Muslim; Arab spice traders and African muslims brought it asd early as the 8-14th centuries.

2) How did Christianity come to Nigeria

Christian; Christian missionaries brought christianity to Nigeria in th 16th century




Notice how they both tell the horrible truth about the other religion but spin the truth about their own religion regarding slavery?

Frosbel, thank goodness for this article!!!


Your stupidity has been highlighted.


Matyrdom has always been foolish.

D sage: From one true superior/supernatural being GOD.

Actually each religion in the world claims divine signs to their God, but if you can do more research, you will realize that all of them are interwoven and originated from MIDDLE EAST. Even our own traditional African religions/practice.

On that basis,it's possible we called the same God in different views/ways and understanding.

You are freaking mad. What kind of uncle tom/slave are you? Who told you that African Traditional religions come from the middle east? Better gerrout with that nonsense. Can you explain how my local Niger-Deltan paganism came from the middle east?

Even Asian religions are older than most if not all middle eastern religons


The first people in the world were from Africa.
