Christianity EtcRe: The Black Man & The Bible by morpheus24: 7:07pm On Aug 28, 2008
davidylan:
stop bawling my dear . . . its ok to be wrong.

Ok here is the crux of the matter dear child - the poster asks why all the pictorial renderings in the bible are white and why the bible has no black characters. What he however misses is the many references the bible ACTUALLY makes to black people, Egyptians and Ethiopians for a start.

Next the poster needs to realise that the jewish people (for whom the OT and parts of the NT are centered around) ARE AND WERE WHITE.

I posit another scenario, the first translators of the bible were all white Europeans . . . considering the history of slavery and racism, it is not difficult to imagine they would have made all their characters white.

Now comes clueless buffons like madamkoko - she says well African-Americans have their own bible translation too . . . what makes this attempt at a rebuttal laughable is:

1. We don't know (she never told us and likely doesnt know) whether there are any pictorial renderings in the african-american bible and what color the characters are.

2. The first English translations of the bible came out as early as 900 AD, a period that America didnt even exist.

Now you ask yourself the question, who's the child here? the answer is very clear. i rest my case.
Eh davidyln

to interject in your arguement the statement of Jews being always "White". Euroasians are not white by any account. The Herews from the Exodus were not white when they left egypt. After the 12 tribes were divided. Two remained to form the kingdom of Judah. Those people did not become white until many centuries later.

Just to clue you in.
PoliticsRe: Bauchi State Bans Public Co-ed Schools by morpheus24: 5:39pm On Aug 28, 2008
Typical muslim answer, next you will have laws that allow 10 year olds get married legally,

it won't stop until it becomes utterly ridiculous. I have said it before if you guys want to form an Islamic republic and make your own laws, why don't you say so instead of using these corner corner laws

By the way have the adults even set legislation to ban themselves from flying prosititutes into the country before they want to dictate morality to the younger ones. As if the law will control anything inthis modern age.
Christianity EtcRe: The Black Man & The Bible by morpheus24: 5:05pm On Aug 28, 2008
Egyptians are black by today's American definition of black and so were cushites or abbysinians so to the poster. Your question has been answered already.

Now can pastor Tunde bakare predict if he is going to win and if he will end world hunger and bring America back to its prominence


it doesn't take a genius to predict such a probability. they do it in Las vegas everyday using odds and technique

NYSCRe: Is Nysc A Requirement For Seeking Public Office In Nigeria? by morpheus24: 3:17pm On Aug 28, 2008
madamkoko:
@ Poster: Yes its a requirement but most people PAY THIER WAY through it.

Just attend first two weeks of orientation and call it a day. Then get a job at a Bank, thats what most affulent Nigerians do.
I second that suggestion. Don't waste your time with that shit. A way of using labor for free. There are other ways you can serve communities in nigeria. That law should be amended in this day an age.

thanx madamkoko

I also noticed that in pictorial rendering of biblical scenes, all characters are usually portrayed as white. Is this not a way of saying the blackman has no place in biblical things?
Huh, I don't get the question?

Even you a Christian agree that a good portion of you is wrong. So I should ignore them, now that you have condemn them? Right? Now look at your own writing. You based all your understanding on "Interpretation," asyou have used th word interpret, above. Please tell me what happens when the Biblical verse is so plain as what God said to Moses in the urning bush? Will you still need the art of interpretation? When you answer, I have plenty of plain verses in the new testament for you to tinker with. That will get you cool down, in a hurry.





But the rest of catholic ideas just shifted to how you classified the protestants. Considering that all of you believe in Trinity and three godheads. Okay persons. The holy spirit for you, the holy ghost for them. But both of you believe in son and father. You uniquely pray to the mother in addition. Come to think of it, in this respect, you are worse.





And i saw a Jesuit pastor in one of the Youtube videos provided by davidylan on aother thread, slappin a black woman during baptizm event! What came over him? The devil? I think he needs a wife.




lolololol!

I think you are obsessed with this three in one god thing. Didn't your Quran say when muslims die they will go to theri own heaven . idon't konw which one maybe the 6th or 7th chamber and your fellow xtians will go to another one. Why are you worrying yourself. Abi the one you are going to is going to be executive suite abi.

You know you relgious nuts are crazy. I don't get your logic. its this simple

Either all of you are lying and one is telling the truth
All of you are telling the truth and no one is lying
All of you are lying and noone is telling the truth   

cause honestly you don't know. Can't you just admit this. How can you tell me what is going to happen to me when I die when none of you really know and base all your knowledge on books stone/bronze age people wrote before they knew the earth revolved around the sun and the sun was not a god. Ssssshh!
Nairaland GeneralRe: [DELETE} by morpheus24: 3:43pm On Aug 27, 2008
Ethiopian people are no differnt in terms of pride, culture or features to othsr Africans. Though they are pysically different from West Africans or Southern Africans, those features have nothing to do with being intelligent or culturally superior.

As a matter of fact Ethiopia is one of the most underdeveloped countries in African despite their historical significance.

If an Ethiopian tells you the mythical story of Solomon and Sheba please kung them in the head. The story is not factually true and are storeis which move across the yemen into Ethiopian through trans geographical migrations.

Geneticallly ethiopians are closer to Africans than Arabians . full stop

[quote author=~Lady~ link=topic=163180.msg2710119#msg2710119 date=1219765427]pleas don't use idiots as a standard to measure all christians.

no one knows who the anti christ is.

the signs are in the Bible, but these silly humans who call themselves christians are doing what they're not supposed to do. instead of striving to be holy and helping the earth and its inhabitants, they're busy trying to figure out the end of the world. they do not know it, so please ignore them.[/quote]Then why so many Pastors preaching it if they are human and can't admit that they don't know.
Every century there is a new Anti Christ.

I won't be surprised if he hasn't come and gone right under ya noses.

this one made me laugh the other day. America is the new babylon and will burn and perish, yeah right like America is the first empire that ever eixsted or perished. Good prediction.

I don't believe that most of the posters meant the bad things they are posting, I think some are actually showing how versed they are on Nigeria and things concerning her. So please don't take it on anybody, we will survive this storm.
I don't think we are going to survive this storm, especially when the oil starts depleting. Its all good now cause people are chopping money. I hope I am still alive to see this natural resource deplete. then eye go clear. let me give you examples of countries that are similar to Naija in terms of history and politcs

North/South Korea
North/South Vietnam
Pakistan/India
Russia/Poland
Russia/Georgia
Russia/Ukraine

The people in the southern part of Nigeria are too educated and mobilized to allow tyrants to thrive whereas the north will codone it in the name of Religion, indoctrinated and illiteracy, mark my words

What is wrong with you people sef, instead of you to be honest and say you don't know who this antichrist is you keep shouting lLook to the the left its the catholic church, tomorrow its look to the right its the roman empire, next its saddam hussien, then Bin laden, then the european union, then Russia, then Saudi Arabia then the illusionist TB joshua.

When will you people get it right or is it that you are just talking rubbish all together.

PoliticsRe: This South, North Divide: How Good To Us As A Nation? by morpheus24: 5:40pm On Aug 25, 2008
My response to your statement is that obviously from the numerous threads and responses concerning this topic leads any intelligent person to understand there is a serious problem broiling between North and South irrespective of how one thinks these are simple sentiments of hate.

I for one do not hate northerners and respect everyone's right to life BUT it is evident that the individuals who inhabit that region of Nigeria be it the Elite class or the masses have a very different view point in life in regards to their way of life and how a country charts it vision of progress. Unless these are reconciled the two divides will have serious issues concerning cohabiting together as a country

AutosHow Bad Are The Ports In December? by morpheus24(op): 2:02pm On Aug 25, 2008
This is for clearing agents or those who have had experience shipping cars to Nigeria that arrived in the month of December.

Pleae I need to know how bad the ports are in december as far getting a car out . My car has been delayed here in the states due to problems and will most likely be shipping out in Oct. I am exteremly furious at the company and will make sure I spread the word for people not to rely on them at all.

What am I going to expect if this car gets in say 1st week or second week of december?
