ScienceWatch: Martinez19 will testify in public that it was the will of the accidental BIG BANG that humans get three mental faculties to use. But that ATHEISTS only get to use the lowest mental faculty called LOGIC as is evident here.
This mighty God can not be understood using the lowest mental faculty. That's why the logically educated battle to raise to the challenge. Atheism is the best religion for the mentally slothful the selfish and chronically bitter believer. Examine their behaviour when confronted with giving kindness, charity, God's love, healing etc. They respond with bitterness disguised as superior LOGIC. Because I ruled out the religious gods doesn't mean that I rule out the possibility of a God. Don't make the mistake of assuming that irreligious folks believe in chances. |

MONEYJOEE: Human beings like you and me authored dictionaries and sometimes they makes mistakes. Dictionary are also slow in updates. You'll have to wait long for a new version to come out. This is why an open source web based lexicon like wiktionary is preferred over Oxford or Merriam Webster.
I know the dictionary you're talking about, as a matter of fact I have over 6 different dictionaries including Oxford on my phone but that wiktionary based app trumps em all. It has more words than a normal dictionary, and its definitions has more depth. It also receives faster updates since it's open for modifications to user. It's a sister project from the owners of Wikipedia. Thanks. The crackpots won't understand this. No wonder, they are easily brain washed. |

SmartyPants: I don't understand what point you are trying to make... if i didn't get the blades, yes one very possible answer is that it was not God's will. Are you of the opinion that we believe God answers all prayers?
Or that we know all things about God? if God answers prayers all his faithful followers, at least, would be cure of cancer, hiv and be restored if they are amputees. There is no justification for God refusing to heal his faithful followers except if we should kid ourselves. Given that God does not answer prayers, coincidence is the suspect in you receiving your roller blades. |

SmartyPants: Of course some things happen in life that are not attributable to an act of God. But there are certain things that are beyond coincidence.
In the late 90's i was a pre-teen living in Ibadan. One night, my parents gathered us around and asked us to pray and ask God for any one thing that we wanted. I asked for a pair of roller blades. Now this is the 90's we are talking about, in Ibadan. Roller blades were not exactly found everywhere you looked.
I forgot about the prayer, but the next day a certain family that were our friends came over and gave us some roller blades.
Was that a coincidence? Or an answered prayer?
No one has given me any roller blades since then o.  It's God's will to grant someone a roller blade but not to heal cancer. If you didn't have that roller blades and you told someone that God didn't answer your prayer, they will tell you it's God's will or any jargons to defend God.  |

SmartyPants: Sorry what? the dictionary app is more reliable than the Oxford Advance Learner's Dictionary?
Are you high?
Can you confidently reference the dictionary app in your academic work?
This would be the second thread of yours i am reading where you have made a significant error in stating facts. Excuse me, Oxford is the most popular. People are used to it. Why don't you research. When it comes to defining words and giving their alternate meanings, Oxford is no match for the dictionary app. Test it yourself. I have used both. |

ScienceWatch: Could it be that scientist are deceiving us when they claim that the most abundant molecules found in the Stars are the same molecules that passively formed life on earth. They are still trying to get to the nearest Star.
In spite of scientists dubious claims there is zero verifiable evidence of life on these Stars.
A new challenge is now baffling scientists about their established theories of how life began.
Recently, Many scientists are known to study the transparent and abundance of scientifically verifiable evidence of the existence of an intelligent loving creator -GOD. This evidence is flowing like a mighty river out of the SCOAN CHURCH. How can you believe a member of TB Joshua's church. That charlatan. His false prophecies are enough to show you that he is a fake. Smh. |

Please when you are doing your project work in the university, go and reference "your app" at the end of the project and see how you will fail woefully. Infinix is better than iPhone. IPhone is over hyped and expensive. That app is popular among many students and learned people. You can't fail, never, if you use the dictionary app. You can find it on Google play store.

It's an app does not mean it's stands no chance of being great. Being an app na bad thing?

felixomor: The word "Loosely" and "broadly" which you clearly Ignored for your self purpose besides the meanings gives you out.
Besides, here is the Oxford meaning. Below
atheism ˈeɪθɪɪz(ə)m/Submit noun noun: atheism disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods.
It comes from root greek word "a-theos" meaning (No God) The Oxford advanced learner's dictionary is no match for the dictionary app. Check the meaning of the word psychopath in each of them and then tell which one has depth. Even Richard Dawkins dealt with this atheist misconception. |

The fact that atheists disagree and can disprove religious gods doesn't mean that we rule out the possibility of a God. All we are saying is that religion is not the answer and truth. How does not believing in lies and deception translate to a mental illness or disease?  |

salt1: Poor soul! I can just imagine the level of hatred and bitterness in your heart. @Op, God knows everything. Nothing happens without His approval. We're living in a cursed world: sin's natural consequences are sickness, diseases and death. God would have destroyed this horrible earth and created a new world, but because He created man as a never dying being, He's giving man an opportunity to seek forgiveness, live right, and live eternally in a new world He's making. But while waiting for that time, man will experience sickness and death because it's part of the bargain for being here. It may not make much sense to you but that's the truth. why do you think he is bitter?  |

SaviTar: Idiot...you are not a human being. You have no heart,no feelings.
You are indirectly trying to introduce reincarnation. You are a christian and christians dont believe in reincarnation....Go and ask a Bible scholar or man of God....they'll tell you that reincarnation is not valid in christian teaching.....People die once...they dont come back.
I'm an atheist but i used to be a christian and i know they dont believe in reincarnation.
How can an atheist like me teach you common sense. You are a christian and you're supposed to be better than the common atheist.
Honestly you are a disgrace to your religion.You dont deserve to carry that bible.
Go to London and talk about Bradley Lowrey....tell them that Bradley deserved to die....tell them that Bradley is guilty. The british people would be tempted to use jungle justice on you.
Bradley is innocent. He is a born again christian. His parents are hardcore christians. He did not deserve to die of cancer.
Shame on you. You belong in the African traditional religion not christiandom. sorry for your brother's loss, don't mind the crackpot. He is confused and heartless. |

SaviTar: You must be a psychopath....how can you say that Bradley is not innocent? What wrong could he have done to justify dying by cancer?
Stop defending your God Stop lying to yourself stop saying that only guilty people suffer.
Innocent people have died terrible deaths. Innocent people have suffered in pain which is not self-inflicted! Innocent people have been killed and tortured but God allowed it.
You are trying to say that Bradley died because he is guilty....guilty of what? Is Bradley a sinner? Does he deserve to die?
You sound like a psychopath....a sadist,one who finds excuses to justify pain and suffering.
What about Job's family....they were guilty abi?
Guilty of what?
Show me a bible verse that said Job's family is guilty of sin.
Stop spewing lies and bullshit....you sound live the devil.
My little brother died at the age of 2....My parents did everything to save him but they couldn't.
Are you saying that my baby brother is guilty and deserved to die?
I wish i could punch you in the face,you deserve a beating.
Two faced hypocrite....are you better than Bradley Lowrey or my late baby brother? stupidity and nastiness are inevitable when defending the christian god. |

5DMindset: My dear OP,
God is not what you think, but I will not delve into that, because that is not the purpose of this thread, but accept my sincere condolence on the loss of your relative. Tell your relatives and the bereaved to ponder on the 'Purpose' of losing that lady. If it was not an unavoidable health issue then there is an underlying purpose for everything happening in the Universe. Look for that purpose and it will help speed up the healing process and present an opportunity for you all to understand your soul mission in life. The expected time for someone to die is at old age, or if the person decides to end it all, but when the body malfunctions, its usually our ignorance to handle our health perfectly as was expected by nature or there is a new design in your Soul mission and that of others that requires a recall. Mourn not, for all is for eternal good of the universe. You are heartless but you don't know. Purpose of her death? You have got to be kidding me. |

There are countries practising religion till date yet they're doing well to a great extend e.g South Korea,Japan, China,just to mention a few.Even if we do away with religion we will still remain were we are if our mindset doesn't change.

cyborg123: Hardly does an atheist openly reveal his/her atheism and you attempt to use this line as a defense? You can't possibly be planning to keep this promise. Bestialists caught in the past were never atheists as far as I know. As far as I know, pastors and christians, not all, do watch pornography, fornicate, do drugs etc. Even bestiality is not far from religious folks. Later, they will tell you that they have the holy spirit and Jesus died for their sins. If Jesus death couldn't change the world and people's lives, I am not impressed. If I were Jesus, I would demand my life back.  oops, Jesus is a lie.  |
