Workch:Let’s try again. I already gave you tips on reading and comprehension. So bite again and see if you would do better. Ready ...go.... Our willingness to accept scientific claims that are against common sense is the key to an understanding of the real struggle between science and the supernatural. We take the side of science in spite of the patent absurdity of some of its constructs, in spite of its failure to fulfill many of its extravagant promises of health and life, in spite of the tolerance of the scientific community for unsubstantiated just-so stories, because we have a prior commitment, a commitment to materialism. It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow compel us to accept a material explanation of the phenomenal world, but, on the contrary, that we are forced by our a priori adherence to material causes to create an apparatus of investigation and a set of concepts that produce material explanations, no matter how counter-intuitive, no matter how mystifying to the uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism is absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door. [Billions and Billions of Demons - JANUARY 9, 1997 ISSUE] Richard C. Lewontin |

[b] Nothingserious:[/b]Its time for long articles because evidence don’t exist. If you like post the full book of that man, it’s useless to me without evidence. You can go teach this to your gullible church members ![]() |

Workch:Chai! This boy is very foolish. I have told you severally that this quote is not from a Christian. Who do you this strong thing? “Our willingness to accept scientific claims that are against common sense is the key to an understanding of the real struggle between science and the supernatural.

Nothingserious:The question is, why did humans have to try to correct whatever happened to the boy since you claim your god created him perfectly without mistakes. Answer the question and stop giving me these mumbo jumbo talks? |

A001:I have so much enemies here such that IF IT WAS TRUE, I would have had so much mentions this morning, congratulating you and insulting me But it is Not True! And you are known to be A Liar and Now Stupid has been added to it. WHAT A SHAME! A001:Based on your Latest Acquisition of Stupidity, you are so stupid to not know! 1) that Nairaland is no different from the Office or Shop or Beer Parlour where Existing "Real humans" scientifically evidencially come and go as they please. 2) that "threads and posts" DO NOT THREADS AND POST THEMSELVES, EXACTLY LIKE A BOOKS, TEXTBOOKS ETC, DID NOT WRITE ITSELF, But it is the Existing "Real humans" who did it and caused it. 3) "members' accounts" - CLEARLY SCIENTIFICALLY EVIDENCE EXISTING "REAL HUMANS" WHO CONTROL THE ACCOUNT. MEMBER'S ACCOUNTS DID NOT CREATE THEMSELVES NOR CONTROL THEMSELVES. But you are foolish to not know these simple ordinary everyday things. Boy, what a disappointment to your parents and the society. Thus, you are the one Who TRULY Suffers the Illness of Aggravated Stupidity and Mass Foolishness. Recommendation! Go To Primary and Secondary School! ![]() You know So Much Nothings, boy! (Time to Bunker Up Dtruthspeaker!) ![]() |

Workch:Did I abuse you? Maybe I needed to remind you one of those motion ( Newtonian laws) that talks about action and reaction being equal and opposite. I present back to you what you push to me. That shouldn’t bother you. That said, I was thinking you would be smart enough to read the quote and mirror your position in there. It’s a shame you don’t understand it. That about summarizes you and your position. Cheers |
| Re: Finally I'm Free from religion by Nothingserious: 8:16am On Nov 01, 2021 |
kingxsamz:First of all you deviated from the issue we had discussed: science solving ALL of man’s problem and fixing EVERYTHING. That’s scientism. It’s not true. It self destructed itself by kicking even the science it tries to defend. Many philosophers including some atheists jettisoned it many years ago. I know you don’t know. Secondly, God is sovereign and handed critical and creative abilities to humans made in his image ( See Genesis 1). Humans have the capacity to fix anomalies that come up in nature because of the inherent abilities God placed in them. Remember there are many Christian surgeons working in hospitals. So surgery isn’t an exclusive preserve of godless people. And medical science does not transform people to godlessness. The disciples asked Jesus about the blind Bartimeaus whether the parents sinned or the guy did. Jesus said none. Rather there was a purpose for the perceived misfortune. If your emotional objections to God are based on sufferings in the universe, that’s fine. If you develop a relationship with God, you could start asking for guidance to understand things from his point of view and not yours. The earth is his and the fullness thereof. Last time we checked, it was still his and not yours. |

Workch:I am disappointed in you. I gave you a quote from a respected intellectual who happens to share same worldview with you. In your characteristic self, you assumed a pastor wrote it. Lol Abeg go and rest. That quote summarizes your struggle. I will allow you secretly check it out in the next few days, read it, regurgitate it , assimilate it, internalize it and then respond from a point of knowledge. See you next time. |

Nothingserious:Shut up, what do you know about Newtonian law? Illiterate using a scientific law out of context |
| Re: Finally I'm Free from religion by kingxsamz(m): 8:34am On Nov 01, 2021 |
Nothingserious:Bro, this long write up is highly unnecessary and irrelevant to the simple question I asked. NothingseriousThis is what I'm addressing bro. Why should humans be "fixing" anomalies in new borns when you claim your god makes no mistakes in his creation? Give a straightforward answer,not the gibberish up there. |
| Re: Finally I'm Free from religion by Nothingserious: 8:38am On Nov 01, 2021 |
Workch:When I was reading Holderness and Lambert, Nelkon, Okeke and Anyakoha, Ababio, Stones, you were probably still running around naked. Shut up and stop all the emotional tantrums foolish boy. |

Nothingserious:so how come you are This illiterate? ![]() |
| Re: Finally I'm Free from religion by Nothingserious: 9:02am On Nov 01, 2021 |
Workch:You wanted to type literate right? Lol I don’t like bragging. I hate that you had bragged from day one. Not good enough. I didn’t stop at the Sec school. I was also taught materials science, strength, thermo, analysis, structures, fluid. Maybe you had thought I was a pastor. Just focus on issues at discuss when we talk okay. Drop your science profiles by the side. |
| Re: Finally I'm Free from religion by Workch: 9:04am On Nov 01, 2021 |
Nothingserious:Mumu doesn’t get sarcasm? No wonder he’s a religious fanatic. Can’t get simple sarcasm. ![]() There’s nothing brag about, your head is empty |
| Re: Finally I'm Free from religion by Nothingserious: 9:15am On Nov 01, 2021 |
Workch:E shock you abi? Joke was on you. I said “literate”. Oh poor boy! Cry me a river. Come back here next time to boast about your science profile and see me tear you to shreds. |

| Re: Finally I'm Free from religion by Workch: 6:37pm On Nov 01, 2021 |
