Aemmyjah: I don't know why you are so confused. Maybe you should not muddle up everything together. I'm not mentioning the 1st Joshua here, rather the 2nd Joshua which was renamed Jesus, When the second Joshua was renamed Jesus, how did they know that the God of Israel approve that his son's name be changed from Joshua to Jesus? Mind you in the same bible, the 1st Joshua's name was not changed to Jesus, he lived and died as Joshua. I will come back to the second part of your post later. I don't want you confused. |

Aemmyjah: So you don't know why for two people bearing the same name, one was changed to Jesus and the other left as Joshua in the same book? I don't really care about the other names. They are not names above all other names - Jesus is where my interest lies. Why not admit that you don't know instead of throwing up meaningless links and innuendos? |

Aemmyjah: Can you show me the bolded from Genesis or any other account. Or I should just believe you? And what is the difference btw 'made and create'? Can you tell me which bible variant you're using? What is with you and 'go and rest'? Is it because the Hebrew deity aka God of Israel rested in 7th day? |

Aemmyjah: What was the original name of your Jesus before letter J was invented in 1524, and why was it changed to Jesus. I'm particular about Jesus because of the claim that his name is above all other names. If a name is above all other name, should you just randomly change that name without reason? |

Aemmyjah: Have you checked your bible to confirm this portion has been removed? John 8: 1-11, go an verify. Do you want more inaccuracies in the bible? Let me ask one question: According to the Bible, the Sun and Moon were created on the 4th Day. Earth of course was created in the beginning. Now base on your understanding of science, which came first - Sun (our star) or Earth (our Planet)? |

Aemmyjah: Looks like you're struggling with comprehension. May I suggest you drop your emotion somewhere so that the spirit of reasoning will flourish. Let me rephrase: There are two notable Joshua in the original account. 1. Joshua (Yeshua) who took over from Moses 2. Joshua (Yeshua) the messiah, son of Mary and Joseph In 1524 or so, the letter J was invented. Bible editors decided to change the second Joshua (Yeshua) to Jesus, and left the first one. The question I ask is why? 1 Like |

Aemmyjah: The meeting of Jesus and the adulterous woman where Jesus was quoted to have: - Draw on the sand - Ask the person who hasn't sinned to cast the first stone - Told the woman I didn't condemn you - Famously said "Go and sin no more" Is very significant for Christianity. But this event is fiction. It was totally made up. It did not exist in the original manuscript for the book of John. If you want more Bible fiction, ask nicely. 1 Like |

Aemmyjah: Let's narrow down to the depiction of the name in the English bible which were are familiar with. Is Jesus easier to pronounce compare to Yeshua? The original name of Jesus is Yeshua, same as Joshua. So why did they leave one Joshua in the bible and created a Jesus? An argument put forward was that they were trying to distinguish Joshua the one who led Israel into Canaan from the Joshua the messiah, the question is what were they calling him until 1524? When did they realize there was confusion with the two Joshua? I'm only asking question cos many of you just accept things the way you see them. You can keep holding on to straw as religion demands, but that does not stop non-religious people from seeking answers to academic question. Jesus was dark toned man; depict your messiah correctly let the people decide how they feel. What's the need for packaging? Is Christianity ashamed of the color of the messiah as suggested by the Roman authority? 4 Likes |

Aemmyjah: It's completely possible to make up fictional characters, and introduce them into the society. Okonkwo and Amalinze did not exists, but Things Fall Apart gave them a larger than live appearance, with their stories situated in real life environment of the Igbo people with the coming of the missionary, A few truth garnished with a lot of lies is what propagandist mostly use. As we speak a bible has been written with Kanye West as the creator, as God. Given time and enough propaganda, as no one will remember the story of the deity God of Israel and his supposed creation of heaven and earth. But I would not argue against the existence of Yeshua as, clearly, alot of evidence suggests he existed. But the issue here is was Jesus same as Yeshua? That's the question one need to answer especially with all the evidence to show that the bible has been several edited to infuse Roman culture to make the bible more acceptable to the roman empire. Secondly a lot of efforts were made after the fact to promote the idea of Jesus' divinity, whereas the Yeshua that came was just a man like you and I. When some religious group sponsored and expedition to Mesopotamia to confirm the truth of several bible account, what they found is mindboggling. I believe that's something you need to research yourself. 2 Likes |

Aemmyjah: One may not be able to provide evidence such as you requested, but the argument can be made that the Jesus story is very much garnished, at least the video documentary provide some insight. It is a fact that the letter J was invented in 1524. I do not believe that Yeshua is more difficult to pronounce than Jesus. So why the need to change the name from Yeshua to Jesus? So technically speaking Jesus did not exist until 1524. Have you bothered to examine the argument that a variation of Jesus (Esus) existed and that individual could have been merged with Yeshua? Again, Galileans are darker toned than the image of this white Jesus that are shown to the world as image of Jesus. I asked, is the God of Israel ashamed of the colour of his beloveth son? Why the colour change? Another argument is that by changing the from Yeshua to Jesus, how did they transfer the 'authority and power' that was bestowed on Yeshua to the new name Jesus? Did Jesus' father approve the name change? A wise person will look at all these and begin to ask question, and look evidence. The bible is just one account of history, and it is very compromised. 2 Likes |

correctguy101: This God matter self is very critical for understand. When someone mentions 'God' it's important to place it in context. Which 'God' - Yahweh, Allah, Amun Ra, Baal? By the way, these 'Gods' here have their origin in Sumeria. They were collectively called Elohim (the powerful ones or assembly of Gods).

SHIVA001: It's possible he existed in some form or the other. But the issue is that the Bible has been heavily edited and not a completely reliable account. Some things were even added later on. A typical example is the meeting between Jesus and the adulterous woman. That account was not found in the original script of the Book of John. It was added later. So when you begin to look the number of things that were added later into the bible, and those that were edited out, you'll begin to wonder if the bible is indeed an accurate account of event. 1 Like |

First you have to die before you can resurrect, right? Here is documentary from BBC Archive claiming that Jesus perhaps did not die on the cross. And the that the bible had been edited several times to adjust for resurrection. What more? It suggested that Jesus lived into old age, and left several evidence for people who seek the truth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5rn5ZL9eWQ |

jahsharon: Igbos have no quarrel with Obasanjo. He was a soldier and under a command, Obasanjo is a goodman. As for Obidients, they just want a better Nigeria. A Nigeria where drug addicts, convicted criminals, and those involved in electoral malpractices face justice. A Nigeria where equity and peace and progress is enthroned. If you have problems with Igbo, face the next Igboman around you and confront him. If Obidients are your problem, I don't know how to direct you, cos Obidients are nowhere yet everywhere.

Politics / Re: The Hypocrisy Of Prof. Wole Soyinka by PointB: 8:29pm On Apr 07, 2023 |
So Wole Soyinka will open his mouth and insult people, and then expect them to throw roses at him? I have no sympathy for the vitriol that is coming his way. If he doesn't know how to sooth the tension in the land, he best keep quiet and continue his frolicking with Tinubu as a private citizen. Anyone who enters the fray in support or opposition to any side is a combatant, therefore a valid target. The Prof ought to know the mood of the nation, if he's not naïve. 5 Likes 1 Share |
