Wilgrea7:
I've read the Bible.. I'm yet to see any evidence of the god you're describing in there.

I'm not saying your god does not exist.. but so far, I'm yet to see any tangible evidence that suggests it does.

Gbam!

GanagiBitrus:
Didn't you read my comment that nobody truly knows the nature of God.
God here can be a person, many persons, a force or forces, etc...
There may even be higher levels of "God".
The fact that you & I exist and there is the universe & nature with all the laws as exposed by science simply means there is a creator(s) or a designer(s). The true nature or such 'entity', no mortal being knows.
Religion only tries to simplify things.

Look, you have only 5senses & you can only reason within the limits of those senses. Suppose there is a 6th, 7th or 8th sense?

Do you know that it is impossible to explain to someone born TOTALLY blind, what sight is all about?
Think about it. 🤔

Ok. It's a good foolproof question and i see you're not one of those people. So you agree the religion God is a facade.

MightySparrow:
Indoctrination is everywhere in the world. You are indoctrinated into one thing or the other. You are made to believe in a way depending on your location. Seeing world view from that standpoint is what I mean by being myopic. Religion on its own is not giving to academic knowledge. Professors of a leaning can overlook what truth or science for fiction of rel

Your God is fictional, liks Zeus.

Ever8090:
do people still ask such a childish question...hmmmm.... some people are really lagging behind spiritually and intellectually ...

You're the childish one.
Believing in something that was indoctrinated into you as a child and you still haven't escaped the matrix.

MightySparrow:
Your conclusions are drawn out of your own myopic view of the world and religion. In all of the religions, two things are possible: if man set out from a point in time and space, they must have carried along a knowledge of God from that place or they got to a point when they feel there is a higher power outside their reach that controls things.

Besides, reading through the Bible, and the prophecies, you will discover that there is a being somewhere controlling everything globally from the prehistoric past to the unknown future. Only very few people share your view, just insignificantly few called atheists.
God does exist.

Read the bible?
You didn't read my post well. What church do you attend?

Who is myopic?
The one who believes in something that was indoctrinated into him or the one who is free?

Almost 4000 religions in the world. Every sect believes their version of God is the ideal one.
The one that pisses me off the most is the sect with thousands of conflicting denominations.

Take it or leave it. If we're judging by the standards of the white fairytale old white bearded God widely believed in by majority, the existence of such defies logical reason.

I'll ask some questions. If you can't answer any properly and directly then your God is baseless and useless.

Where was God during the Holocaust?
Where was God during the Nigerian civil war?
Why didn't God protect the end sars
massacred protesters even with all the prayers?
There are always multiple churches or a mosque in most streets in every part of the country, why isn't your dead God answering Nigeria's prayer?
Why do most Nigerians become less religious after leaving the country?

Do the maths.

Came across this post

Here's my conclusion.

faceland:
The day all Nigerians are convinced there is no God, I will trek out of the country even to Chad.

The wickedness that will follow, would be unprecedented.

We are one of the most religious countries in the world and our wickedness is unmatched.

abdsamad:
One day we need to do a townhall and dissect this God matter very well. The misconceptions are just too much

For example, we keep conflating human behaviour for God's dictation. Humans are arsholes who fight for things they like (animate and inanimate) because we're territorial. We lie, cheat, and kill... It doesn't matter in whose name we're doing it.

Seeing people who claim to be religious do those human things and concluding that religion encourages that is as incorrect as seeing a white man for the first, second, third, and fourth time, all while smoking cigarettes, then concluding that being white makes people smoke cigarettes.

Correlation isn't causation.

I don't mind people not believing in god, i just get irritated when it's based on things like... Why does god allow suffering?
Really? You live on a planet that has oceans you can easily drown in, and volcanoes that naturally erupt, and you're asking why bad things happen to you? You live among other humans who regularly stab each other because someone took their girlfriend, and you still ask why god doesn't make you not suffer.

The world is messy, grow up.
Earthquakes happen on other uninhabited planets too so if it happens to you God isn't targeting you. Other animals get ganked by their own kind, so if your fellow man steals all the money in the economy and causes you to starve, god isn't out to get you

You mean God has no affair with humans?

GanagiBitrus:
There is God.
What you can argue is that you don't believe in God as portrayed by Christianity, Islam or any other religion.
They all try to portray God in their own different ways.

So there is God but nobody truly knows the nature of God. Different religions only attempt to understand God in their own way.


Diarris God o!

Who created the God?

Don't marry from a broken home.

One p***y for the main guy, za other for the side dude.

Tokotaya:
Homosexualism is a reflection of a brain defect. You should not be attracted to your gender. You should not be attracted to animals. But funny Western world. They will punish someone sleeping with a cow and praise a man sleeping with a man.

Has nothing to do with the western world. It's as old as time itself.

Baronthecelebri:
God punish you

God doesn't exist.
Wahala ooo. On top my money

I'm not against homosexuality but forcing someone is wrong.
Say no to rape

survemeka:
That place was normal level ground before the erosion turned it like this. No sane person will build at the edge of a cliff.

Do you reside there?
Regardless, heavy structures shouldn't be built in erosion prone areas.
