Edis4christ: 1) d ans is B
2) let her budget 4 food be x.
x/4=money on provision.
(x-x/4)1/2=3x/8=money on staples.
D remainder=x-3x/8=5x/8. Therefore one-third of d remainder=1/3X5x/8=5x/24
x-(x/4+3x/8+5x/24)=350. Den look 4 d l.c.m nd solve. U will ave x=2100
3) d ans is A
No bro, the fraction of meat can't be 5x/24.
Now this is according to the way of your working:
Budget=x
provision=x-x/4=3x/4. . .the fraction left
Now half of the fraction that is left is for staples: 1/2*3x/4=3x/8. . .fraction of staples
therefore the fraction left after deducting the fraction of staples is 3x/4-3x/8= 3x/8.
Now the fraction allocated for meat is 1/3 of the remaining fraction: 1/3*3x/8= 3x/24.
Therefore the amount-total fraction is: x - (x/4+3x/8+3x/24)
= x - (6x+9x+3x/24)
= x - 18x/24
=24x-18x/24
= 6x/24
6x/24=350
6x=8400
x=1400. . . .Actually!

Christianity EtcRe: On Demonic Afflictions by Ortarico(m):
browncool: Jesus Christ is not God, but he is the son of God and to answer your question, God was in charge if it doesn't make sense to you, then you should as well ask yourself when Jesus Christ was in the womb of Mary his earthly mother for the period of 9months, then who was in charge?
hardbody: Jesus is not the Almighty God, he is the Son of God. In the Bible, Jesus prayed to his father. When he was coming of the water after baptism, his father called him my son in whom I am well pleased. When he was about to die after his earthly ministry, he kept praying to his father and requested that the cup should pass over him. Your question, religiously speaking is a no brainer.
And who told you both that Jesus isn't God? You had better study your Bible wella.

Jesus is God but of a humble personality who doesn't equal himself with God the Father (Philippian 2 vs 6-7) & (John 14 vs 28)

He was also at Creation (Genesis 1 vs 26) or who did you think created him and the Holy Spirit?

Now on the issue of the "Trinity" though the Bible didn't clearly state that but was given as a literal word meaning; "Three In Unity- Trinity" (1st John 5 vs 7-8; main verse that supports the doctrine of "Trinity"winkor are all terms used were taken from the Bible? Even the word Bible wasn't taken from the Bible.

Agnostics or Athiests or whatever you call yourselves, the demons in you that make you believe that there are no demons. For you just wanna be free from religious warning and doctrine. Where you the one that created yourself? Even the science of the universe itself points to a designer. . . . "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known".

Christianity EtcRe: What Do You Stand To Gain For Being An Atheist? by Ortarico(m): 4:04pm On Feb 24, 2013
kj_hova: @Ortarico, let me let you know that the books referred to as apocrypha even vary from bible to bible and from denomination to denomination. Many of the books accepted in the Roman Catholic canon were deliberately removed from the King James' authorized Anglican bible in 1611. The Coptic church, East Orthodox & the Ethiopian traditional church all have varying unrelated books in their different canons.

Even in the KJV (authorized Anglican) which is the most widely accepted bible among Nigerian christians, many of the books are of unknown or atimes dubious authorship. Moses almost certainly didn't write the "five books of Moses". No one knows who wrote The Hebrews, and a handfull of the Pauline epistles were only ascribed to Paul by the Roman leadership as the authors were unknown.

In the early days of canonization, many church conclaves invented their own yardsticks to decide what books to accept & what books to discard. This process had nothing to do with inspiration by any spirit, never mind holy. Hence the major denominations don't have the same number of books in their "holy book".

An example is of note. A particular book (I now can't remember if that was the book of Judith or Maccabeus 3) was ommitted by King James' scribes only because it tended to support the Roman Catholic concept of purgatory. Certainly, King James & his likes didn't embark on a bible project out of abundant zeal unto d lord, No. The sole purpose of the project was to free the Anglo-Saxon realm from the Roman Catholic enslavement.

Religion is odious, be it christianity, islam, ifa worship or budhism. Its sole purpose is the control of the people by the higher class.
Bro, I sincerely appreciate your efforts/enlightenment on these things! The Bible remains yet complete. I'll also appreciate more if you let me know by your concept on how the universe and creatures came into existence.

Christianity EtcRe: What Do You Stand To Gain For Being An Atheist? by Ortarico(m): 3:28pm On Feb 24, 2013
kj_hova: I like your conclusion i.e. it is wrong for anyone to try to convert another person to his own belief. Christians are most guilty of this crime of proselyting.

If we go by your rule, muslims & especially christians should be barred from roadside preaching, early morning bus stop megaphone trotting, loudspeaker renditions of Sunday or jumaat services to an unsoliciting public, TV & public radio programming, brainwashing of their own kids to believe in d existence of either a Jehovah or an Allah god and all the other media throu which religionists try always to pollute the minds of the people.
As long as God liveth such a decree shall never be promulgated. Do you think we're serving a God that can't speak up for himself?

By the way, did you know what happened in the Buhari/Idiagbon era (1983-1993) when such a law was decreed?

Now why must the gospel be publicly proclaimed?

I propose nine reasons why the public strategies of preaching should be considered as a valid way to present the gospel of Jesus Christ.
1. It presents the gospel to people who may not otherwise step foot into a church.
2. It allows the preacher to obey the most frequent command regarding the manner in which the gospel is preached.
3. It follows historical pattern of pastors open air preaching e.g in the days of Noah.
4. It plainly understands the command of our Lord to "go into the highways and the country roads" and compel sinners to come.
5. It trusts wholly that God's word will never return void.
6. It encourage believers to go out together as a team and it mutually stirs others to more fervent and urgent evangelism.
7. It convicts christian passers-by who are not sharing their faith to consider evangelizing with greater zeal.
8. It always glorifies God because His word is being proclaimed.
9. It depends wholly on the sovereign work of the Holy Spirit to quicken dead hearts to new life as sinners hear the word preached.
Christianity EtcRe: What Do You Stand To Gain For Being An Atheist? by Ortarico(m): 8:30am On Feb 24, 2013
all4naija: You should ask the church. Did you say antagonist book? Are you assuming something about me? What an easy excuse to demoralize the argument to something else by attacking another book to prove your book right.


Lol... I am less concerned about books which attack Atheism and your religion book is one of them to be precise. The truth is that there is no evidence to prove your God exist than mere fairy tales and emotions in the form of sentiment, overwhelming consolations taking to avoid your weakness as per relying on the future heaven promises that aren't there. The fact that the bible is gradually becoming outdated in a modern world is an evidence you don't know what is happening around the world. It is becoming a thing for the primitive minds.

You can be blinded by your belief that is your own cup of tea yet don't give excuses here you are not smart enough to question things you are being continually fed by the church. I don't think you are getting me right here. I am not about you given up on your religion but to put your religion right on where it belong as a fairy tale full of cultural norms.
Why are you repeating already answered questions? Why haven't you just for once sat down and consider/put some thought about how this world began actually? Why has science not been precise about these? Or don't you know that science has got a lot of tales as well? Science has no explanation about these things than to give us unreasonable assumptions and that's why theories codemn theories in the world of science!
Or is it true that this world and man only evolved to give us what we have today? Science hasn't given us to know on the knowledge or mystery behind unlike other religious books that has done in clarity!
Or do you fully embrace Darwin's theory on evolution? Do you belief that your primitive ancestors were monkeys who made the "kho kho" noise?. . . .Haba! For it's just like when we were children and sang the hilarious song that salamanders would eventually turn to snakes.

Talking about the Bible being outdated shall never happen! For we've seen how some great men tried it but was a futile effort for them even here in Nigeria. The funniest of them all was the one whose house eventually turned to a Bible printing press!
Christianity EtcRe: What Do You Stand To Gain For Being An Atheist? by Ortarico(m): 11:51pm On Feb 23, 2013
all4naija: That means you don't know the actual origin of your religion book. It is clear you want to remain in a state of denial and blind to reality like fanatics do. Yes, you are brainwashed in the sense not to question what's been fed to you as regarding your religion and its false doctrines.

Did I force you in any way to believe in Atheism? What kind of idea are you bringing into the argument?
I don't and won't believe there were books of "Apochryphals" in the Bible as it is literally termed as a story well known, but probably not true (folk-tale). Forget about what you read in antagonistic books, or were you there when all these things were done?

It also seems that you don't even know that there are books outside there which also antagonise "Atheism". So, everyone & everything can't escape the issue of criticism but what makes it to still have it stand is what matters. You yourself is open to criticism/critics even of your best friend!
In spite of the hostility towards the Bible it has not been and would never be outdated, do you know why?
Forcing or not, I'm not against you being an atheist, but you guyz should just stop polluting or deter the minds of heaven pilgrims from the belief in the existence of God. Let everyone just hold to his or her belief and LET IT BE!
