ojuu4u: How do you know my life is in shambles ? Well I think it’s the other way around, you religious folk would never leave we unbelievers alone. It’s either you’re preaching in the bus, making noise in the mosque on Friday. Constituting nuisance on Friday night in the form of vigil. Moving all around on Saturday proselytizing. And to cap it up, making noise on Sunday. Have you ever seen an unbeliever constitute such nuisance? |

Salvadora Perisica aka mustard seed, have 40 varieties. Of which one of the varieties, the growth ranges from 6 feet, and others, 20 feet and above. I know many won't do their research, but concur with whatever villifies the bible. And also, when our dear Lord mentioned it as the smallest of all seeds, He was analysing it to the Isrealites then. Because it was the smallest of the seeds they knew. He couldn't have been telling them about plants that have so microseeds because they couldn't grab it. People that don't even know that TV or radio or a light bulb could be evented. Or would term demonic airplane. 1 Like |

hakeem4: If u are not jobless and not occupied, you won't have time for others people about their faith ooo. What people choose to serve and do with their life and religion is personal to them, as its personal to u, not to biliv in existence of God. |

ojuu4u:well, I am not jobless. Attacking religion has become a major preoccupation of my life since when Boko haram started in the early 2000's. To try and fight Theocracy and religious terrorism and its depredations. you know what I find Irritating about the Monotheistic religion; it wants this world to come to an end. If you read the bible about the rapture whilst the islamic counterpart cannot wait for the whole civilisation to come to an end. You guys cannot wait for the world to end. And there are Christians in this country who consider it their job to help this happen so that the second coming of christ would come and Armageddon would happen. This is very Hideous to me. To the bolded I think you are just using pure casuistry Christians go about proselytising, muslims go about killing people to convert to their faith, while should unbelievers not have any right to mock these stupid religions? |

Blue86: Salvadoraceae includes 3 genera and 11 species of shrubs that grow in drier and sometimes saline places in the area from Africa (including Madagascar) to Southeast Asia and western Malesia. The flowers have the same number of sepals, petals, and stamens, and there are sometimes nectar glands alternating with the stamens. The fruit is fleshy, containing either seeds or a stone. Twigs of Salvadora persica, a species that grows from Africa to India, make a bristly chewing stick, and the plant has valuable antiseptic properties that make it useful in toothpastes. The foliage can be eaten by domesticated animals, and the fruit is edible (some scholars think that it might be the “mustard seed” described in the Bible). It is classified as a shrub but even if we accept that the people of those times thought of it as a tree, the passage cannot be thought of as accurate, more like a idiomatic statement. |

LordReed: I think it's fair for a person to claim a 12ft tall plant is a tree 2000 years ago They did not have the knowledge we have today. |

Re: Jesus Was Wrong, There Is No Mustard Tree by LordReed(m): 12:53pm On Sep 11, 2022 |
budaatum: I understand. What I guess I am particular about is the specific wording of the passage. It's not accurate even if you situated it 2000years ago. A 12ft tall plant was not the greatest of trees even in that time period. I can accept that it was meant to be idiomatic though. 1 Like 1 Share |

LordReed:whats the essence of laughing huh,thats the truth john 8:32"and ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free" john 8:36"if JESUS<SON OF GOD>shall set you free you are free indeed" u see thats the fact am precisely about this,give jesus a chance in ur lyf and u'll be free,dont be a persistent guy in ur lyf as an unbeleiver,jesus died for our sins to bring intimacy btw us and ouR HEAVENLY FATHER<GOD ALMIGHTY>and also hope and restoration.Then,if u commited sin consequently this outcomes "DEATH"but jesus defeated death by paying the price 4 us in our stead<hope this is concise>now we are alive 2day by his GRACE alone.just analyse and assimilate this and u would grasp,the creator in which all things perfectly were made thru him came down from his mighty throne to die for us<creations>to bring intimacy btw us and his father<GOD>,WHY not give him a chance he loves and cherishes u,do not harden ur heart pls reed. |

Of it is tall like the plants you categorize as a tree, then it is a tree. Because your yardstick for categorizing it may not be the yardstick Jesus used, but the main thing about trees is that they are y'all plants. |
