you are wrong bro..
Maybe what you're clutching at are gnostic atheists....
Majority of atheists are agnostic atheists..
And the gnostic atheists;their inclination seems to be that---with time,science will find out that ''nature is eternal'' or something similar..
Yea, two opposite believers...one believes nature is eternal while the other believes otherwise. Now, who is certain which one is which? Ecclesiastis explained this and his opinion is perfect to me.

You religious folks assume too much, albeit irritatingly.

*atheists stressing themselves?

Another word for stress is stimulus. Every human being is under the influence of stimuli. So, debug your mind from negative connotation.

Atheists are stimulated by the factual intelligence, as against the badly written fictional book (Bible) that stimulates you folks to assume without evidence.

*quarrel with God?

Another puerile assumption of you religious folks there. There's no denying the fact, there are some who became atheists, following disillusionment from religious beliefs. But i refer to INTELLIGENT ATHEIST (those who discover God to be just a mere idea, in the course of their studies in different areas of their chosen career).

We are not preaching, we are just sharing our writings, enlightening people, in the similitude of enlightenment that the knowledge of ICT is doing.

We seek no convert, just people who can make informed choices based on empirical evidence, as against empty claims of religion.
its still didnt make sense to me....a free thinker would say "whether you believe there is God or there is no God, you are right. However, let us make the world a better place" unlike atheists who claim all knowing...religious folks are deluded, brain washed..bla bla bla. The bible said this did that, Quaran did this and that.

your photo is wrong...
An intellectual deist can dismantle any atheist or atheists(a significant number) at any time...
The deist is more poised to the freedom than the atheist..
You are right here...i see atheists as anti progress and autocratic. They waste a lot of time and energy to claim they are the right. Imagine, two persons come to a T- junction leading to an uncertain destinations and one decides to go left and the other decides to go right. The atheist heading towards right will fight tooth and nail to convince you, he is in the right direction even when he is not certain. Unlike a free thinker who would say, I think this is the right direction but if you think the other way is the right one, you may proceed bc I am not certain.

No intelligent atheists is interested in the enquiry into discovery of God.

We have established, as a matter of fact, that God(s) is a creation of religious beliefs of humans. God is an assumptive idea, conceptualized into organized religious beliefs.

Our writings is for the purpose of enlightenment for those still held bound, by the shackles of illusion and delusion called religious beliefs.

One person per time, will be awakened from religious comatose state. And the evidence of this work, is the increasing number of Nigerians that are now awake from religious idiocy.
In this case, you are just stressing yourself to convince believers that they are wrong. In secondary school, at a time we had to choose science or arts...why will i waste my time trying to convince art students that science is better? The way atheist preach there is no God...as if they had querrel with the God. If I were u, i will not waste my time preaching there is no God.

....lol we are not fighting bro...be nice. We need someone to invent 90% efficient solar panels or light weight batteries that can deliver huge amount of current for long period of time. God has done his part, let us do our part. Instead of questioning how God came about, question how the sun gets unlimited energy ( hydrogen ) to burn continuosly. That computer or phone you are using don't know how you came about but it's possible they have been asking and you are not answering them yet you are so kind to charge them when there battery is dead, fix them when they have problems..

Akdegreat:
With an honest aim of understanding the nature of God and his wonder displayed in nature, I had set out on a quest for 'truth'. As a very inquisitive person, a sound background in scientific methods further fueled my already curious and inquisitive nature beyond normal.

As a kid, I asked several questions;
"Since God created everything that exist, what if God never existed, and hence nothing whatsoever exists? I often tried to picture a dark and void space remaining that way for all of eternity!! Whenever I did, I got lost in my wild imaginations"
"How did God come to be? Who created him?"
"What if God never created life? How would the earth be then? I often repeated same imaginations again but this time with planets, asteroids and other heavenly bodies. Of course I got lost again, severally"
"What if I was never born? So I would never have experienced the beauty of life? Scary!"
"Why did Lucifer ruin the Paradise? For Christ sakes we all would have been there now. Why didn't God even kill Lucifer at once earlier to prevent it? He knew the future!"

I grew up into a devote Christian with different questions;
"With the so many religions on earth could we possibly be worshipping the same God in different ways?"
"If the God I worship in the bible is the one true God and creator of the universe, would he destroy non-christians in hell simply because they worshipped him wrongly?"
"Would God really condemn a devote Christian to hell after years of righteous living simply because he erred one time and dies without repentance? Would he now allow a person who has done heinous things into paradise simply because he finally accepts the salvation story in the end?". I had many more questions that bothered my mind but I'd stop there.

These questions didn't matter so much as I still upheld the Bible as truth and lived by its doctrines. On a second thought they must have sown the seed of doubt in my mind; a seed that came to germinate later on.
A lot of things happened during my undergraduate study that shook my belief but for the sake of brevity, I'd mention a few..
I held the opinion that "compared to clerics, scientists better understood the awesomeness and magnificence of God". Come to think of it this way, with every scientific discovery, scientists reveal God's wonder in nature while clerics keep 'recycling' doctrines written in our ancient Holy Bible. The beautiful works of God in nature were unreconcilable with the barbarisms attributed to him in the bible. When some Bible claims corroborate with scientific findings we're good, but when 'outrageous' claims are found in the Bible, we are convinced that they're metaphorical with deeper meaning. Gradually, it became obvious that science had more credence compared to religion. My religiosity reduced drastically as well as my total trust in the bible as ultimate truth. Not sure anymore, I wondered if there's a creator (God) or not. I mean, 'the Bible must have so poorly described God' I thought.

Aside from bible, I sought knowledge of God from various books on religion, spirituality and nature. I read the Qur'an and it bored me. I came across "Earth's Chronicles, The 12th Planet, and other controversial books by Zecharia Sitchin. They were indeed controversial, and I asked myself 'how did he know all those things?' The works of Thomas Paine is worthy of mention. I agreed with him largely, especially his 'Age of Reason'. I discussed my thoughts with another 'thinker' (I choose not to mention his name) and he introduced me to the 'Sumerian Texts', the 'Epic of Gilgamesh' among other amazing books. Wow! What have I been doing. They shared similarities with the Bible so I couldn't help but wonder and ask more questions. 'Did I believe in a big lie all these while?' ...
My bro, wisdom is sorrow....Just channel this energy to inventions or discoveries. The more you want to enquire about God, the more you are lost. Honestly, God will not answer any of this your questions which is the best answer anyway. For now, we no get light for Africa, if you can provide cheap 24hrs light for Africa, you are God sent, in fact you can even claim say u be one of the angels and nobody will question you.

I don't get why everyone is blaming Pogba. The boy is a midfield maestro. Ed Woodward and the rest knew what they were buying for world record fee. The burden of goal scoring is on Zlatan and the other strikers. Pogba isn't at fault.

The Devil is leading and it's not God's fault, he gave us the power to choose between evil and good and most of us already chose the evil path, so be it.

RomanceRe: Is There Love Without Money? by mecussey(m): 12:30am On Oct 23, 2016
Talk2Bella:
Yes yes yes yes and yes there is, we need to stop this misconception that there is no love without money, its ruined so many chances out there because of this assumption most especially from the men.


This post is in relation to a recent post I made asking “Why Are You Still Single?” and the reasons I got were “I am broke” my dear brothers, I used to be like you, I used to say if I don’t have money or a nice job I won’t date, I thought I had nothing else to offer than sex, I told myself I can’t be broke and date a broke guy and I missed so many opportunities, I know many men think this way but love doesn’t require money to be functional.


Our fathers and forefathers didn’t woo our mothers with money, what is it and this generation with money? Why are we so greedy {Men and Women} why have we become slaves of money instead of love? Money is just one of the criteria that make up a relationships but it is not its main ingredients.


We have men who are looking for rich girls to date, we have women who also looking for rich men to date and this circle goes on and one but the secret is when a woman genuinely loves you, she finds it difficult to ask for things or even take them when you offer, because her love is pure, when you find such women you don’t want to keep them because they don’t fit your standards, the ones who fit your standards are the ones the devil have sent to wreck you.


We need to stop this there’s no love without money, the devil have implanted this into our hearts to deceive us, when you meet the person God has sent into your life, you would realize money isn’t even the main ingredient that spice up a relationship, do not get so carried away chasing things of the world that you don’t recognize happiness when it comes knocking on your doors biko


There’s love without money and I am sure there are many people who can testify to this.



Thanks

To mention photoshop for video matter means, she already agreed, it was her face, in that case, she is the one.

Science/TechnologyRe: Made-In-Aba Stove That Obtains Its Fuel From Cassava Leaf (Photos) by mecussey(m): 11:56pm On Oct 20, 2016
henryanna36:
Aba is like the China of Nigeria.According to information shared on social media by Eastern Telegraph,a made in Aba bio fuel is currently in the market.The stove obtains its fuel from cassava leaf.Below is what Eastern Telegraph shared....

'A smart bio fuel stove, fabricated in the commercial city of Aba in South East Nigeria has made a rousing market entrance.

The chairman of the Agricultural Innovation Platform, Kalu Ichie Kalu who spoke at the Innovation Platform Workshop in Keffi on Thursday, October 20, 2016, which was organised by the Agricultural Transformation Support Programme, phase one (ATASP-1) under the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development described the product as "an credible alternative to kerosene, firewood and gas."

"It's clean energy. One of the innovation in the stove is that 100% of the raw materials are locally-sourced, while the fuel is made from cassava leaf. The price of the stove is N5, 500, while a litre of the fuel is N200. A litre of the fuel burns for 6 hours."

The challenge is that production is still manual, so they will need "support to mechanise our production processes and produce like 25,000 litres per day" Uche said'

If its unscrapable, modify the system to suit Nigeria simple. Unless, you want to tell me, Nigerian govt is doing well. The country is nose diving and if it continues this way, it will crash.

The upper chamber (senate) is not doing there job...if its a company, it must have folded by now. Nigeria should just get rid of it, and channel the money else where.
