I heard on the news a few years ago on the news that religious people live on average 10 times longer than their non religious counterparts. They say it was due to the motivational sermons the singing dancing & happy clappy atmosphere at their services.

Am sure the D P O will get away with it. Because if he knew that he would not get away with it he wouldn't have shot the man in the first place.

Who's going to take this thread seriously. Well the only person who comes to my mind is mamagee.

When i first heard the news i thought it was somebody else. I had to join the dots together before i realized it was our own bamolowo. I will miss reading your posts in the religion section. R.I.P.

There needs to be a public enlightenment campaign. The masses need to be educated (and some of you nairalanders do to) because witches wizards etc do not exist.

According to the Standard Model of God, God is an omniscient, all-powerful, all-loving being who answers prayers. Imagine God sitting on his magnificent throne in heaven looking down upon Earth, seeing every detail. God speaks:

Look at all of those praying people getting tortured in that police station. Excellent! I won't do anything to stop that. And look at that young uniben university student down there being raped and murdered near her school campus. Perfect! She is praying like mad, but I won't do anything to stop that. And there are 2'000 hutus preparing to burn a church and kill 500 tutsi's who are saying the Lord's Prayer to me right now. Outstanding! I won't do anything to stop that. How wonderful it is that 1,000 prayerful people will die of starvation today in Ethiopia. I love it! I won't do anything to stop that. Oh… and there's little Genevive praying that I remove that pimple from her nose for her big date with Bola tomorrow. Let me go help Genevive right now…"

Do you believe in a God who acts like this? Of course not. Isn't that enough proof for you to know that god imaginary. That he don't exist?

so who's going home tonight then i reckon cher

aysometin:
I just hope it's not the end for her

seriously i can write better music in my home studio

Ymodulus:
how do i know and believe God does not exist?

Please am been sincere with this Question?

This answer to this question will only come from your ability to think outside the box of religion reason. Read this story.

MY IMAGINARY CITY


Once upon a time, a long time ago, my world view was deeply religious. I was devoted to my religion and holy book. I felt well protected with the armour of God. My world appeared to be a city, meticulously constructed with beautiful engravings and huge halls. The walls were deep and strong, to keep us all safe from the corruption and sin of the outside world, and they were guarded by God to prevent Satan intruding. All in all, a very comfortable and safe place to live.

One day I wanted to just look up close at one of the engravings on a wall. It didn’t quite look right, and I just wanted to check that it wasn’t my eyesight. When I reached out to touch the engraving, to my horror my hand went right through. There was nothing but dust left of that engraving. I went to my preacher, as he would have to know about this. I showed him the hole, guiltily expecting him to berate me for it. Instead he acted as if he couldn’t see it. He commented upon how beautiful the engraving was, how neatly it fit in with the rest of the decorations, and how his father, and his father’s father had also admired this engraving.

As you can imagine this caught me a bit off guard, but I accepted that maybe it was me who was wrong. After all, he was expected to be much more intelligent that I was in matters like this, not to mention wiser. In a spirit of interest however, I went and had a look at some of the other sections of the city.
To my amazement I could knock down whole walls and rooms with hardly any effort. After a while I was pulling down the buildings just for the pleasure of being able to. Whenever I pulled down a structure I could see that people were still walking around in it as if nothing had happened. This confused me and scared me.

After a while I knocked down the outer wall, the one that protected me from all of the evil in the world. What I saw was a collection of similar cities and small towns. I went and had a look at a few of them, but I didn’t seem to be able to inhabit them, because again I could easily knock holes in the buildings, and find myself unwelcome.

Eventually from my standpoint all that I was left with was a huge flat plain. There was nothing left that could stand up to even the most simple investigation. Nothing was certain, everything crumbled. I could still see my family walking in the air as if their city was still there, but I could not talk to them because they were so far away.

The flat plain was definitely the most intimidating time for me. I could not talk to anybody. I had no shelter, no rules, no group. I spent many hours shouting for people to hear me in their imaginary cities, but to no avail. Perhaps this is what hell is like? No certainty, no authority, no faith, no deity. I tried everything.

Eventually I worked out that the only option available to me if I wanted somewhere to live was to build it myself. I started out with some building blocks that I knew couldn’t be knocked down. “Treat people the way you like to be treated”, “Learn before believing”, “Understand before judging”,
”Be honest with yourself”. These are plain and simple bricks, not the fancy marble
sculpturing that my old home had, but at least they are verifiably solid. They withstand the most rigorous scrutiny. The house is simple and I started to enjoy every day I spent in it.

My neighbours now look at me with a mixture of envy, fear and curiosity because I didn’t build my new house with any of the ‘usual materials’ that is commonplace in all the cities I visited. How could this house stand? Hmmm! How could it protect against all the dangers lurking in every corner, the principalities and powers, and rulers of darkness? No engravings or sculptures, just simple solid bricks, but they suffice for my home. I included a garden for contemplation, and I considered myself lucky to have such a large plain to build on. Now my house is how I want it, shape, size and décor. I few neighbours have come over to see how they could build a house like this. Some have started building, others are consumed with fear. I wish them well, in their journey to the real world.

i reckon alexander burke's new song is rubbish

Nigerian Idol is on Sky Channel 204 on Sunday & Thursday at 6pm U K time.

MzDarkSkin:

Afterlife, you and I know nothing of it, so I am not going to go there.

Since you've just admitted that you don't know anything about the afterlife then how do you know if it even exists? Sorry MzDarkSkin we have to go there. You use your five senses to say there is an afterlife but what of the beforelife? Do you have any knowledge of that? There was no beforelife so there will be no afterlife. Unless someone famous like Lady Diana or Michael Jackson decides to come back to planet earth from this supposedly afterlife i will never believe it.

^^so you guys are tired of your very religious and god fearing country?

^^only sweetnecta and vedaxcool which were your first two nominees will be counted

Bawomolo died because he was shot with a gun. Why won't the U.S. ban guns? They do a lot more harm than good.

yes its true and its also true that this topic is on the homepage and also in the crime section of nairaland

A-40:
His elder broda is my buddie mehn! Damnnnnnn!!!!!!! Cant even think of anything coherent to say just cant

bawamolo is based in chicago and i thought u were based in new york?

@nuclearboy
I just did my own research. bawomolo last posted on the 29th of November and the article about his death in the politics section says he was shot on the 30th of November. That plus the facts that i already knew from his I D that he was based in chicago illinois, which adds up with the article which says he was a student in chicago illinois. Plus the fact that he spent a lot of time on his laptop on facebook which explains nairaland.

I hate to say it because i wish it weren't true but i do believe he is dead now.

How do we know if that really is our own bawomolo from nairaland? Before i believe it will take some convincing.
