Dtruthspeaker: When someone asks a question that shakes the foundation of your "faith imposed by geography", you call them names. *Scoffs* Use your brain my man, the Good Lord blessed you with faculties to hold reasonable conversations, don't let the "Cursed Devil" use you as its screwdriver of malady. |

Questionnaires: Whether you call yourself stupid or not, your life and living will always prove whether.you are stupid or not. And God does it that you people also confess your stupidity. So i am very fine watching you all talk and.do.stupid things only to later come back to tell us how stupid you have been and the stupid things you did. And i will be here just laughing at y'all. |

Stephen0mozzy: Only Reasonable questions son and not just any question for any question will most likely land in being a mad question or a stupid one or both mad and stupid ones. |

Questionnaires: I hate stupid people and lo you have not yet entered the intelligent zone yet. And asking as a mad stupid question the answer of which even a 7 year old can explain it to you just proves that you are both mad and stupid for not knowing. |

Dtruthspeaker: They claim to know the truth, but they're farther from the truth than the sun from earth, Son. Stay on topic, see the title again as thou hast strayed. |

If I'm using Yoruba IFA interpretation, I think I understand Satan better. IFA itself speak in parable, just as the ebo are rather intellectual and creative symbolism. And no, Satan didn't fight with God like some thought. Yoruba IFA interpretation did help me to understand some stuff, even as I also know that the ebo are symbolic. For example, I know that Olorun, Olodumare, Oluwa, Ela are names of the one God almighty. Ela and Olodumare (Eledumare' when combined together) are his attributes. Ela is his word/light/wisdom while Olodumare is his womb/vacuum of infinite creations. It was Ela that ensured the manifestation of these infinite creations in the womb/vacuum thus creating the light (Obatala) and Oduduwa (black vacuum matter) which created the world and everything that makes it. Philosophically, Eshu represent our free will and decision making (good and bad). Whatever decision we make, there's an end result. Eshu also represent justice, law and order. We all know without law and order to ensure balance, the world will be in chaos. Anyone who steal for example should expect punishment. So Eshu represents justice, law and order, thus, the 10 commandments. Prior to the 10 commandment, there was also the commandment over the tree in the garden. But through freewill, men defied the commandment and ate it, lol. Well, since man defied it 😂, he became subjected to punishment rendered by Satan who represents justice. This continued when the 10 commandments were also defied. One could see the justice aspect of God in the old testament whenever anyone failed to uphold the 10 commandment. The coming of Jesus (IFA calls it Ela, the word or Jewesun, the lamb) was to show the merciful and kind aspect of God without the need for animal sacrifice like the old testament where a lamb sacrifice was always needed to lessen the punishment. Hence, we can now say justice should be rendered with mercy, especially if it warrant it. In a drama I saw for example, a poor elderly aged man who stole food to eat was arrested and taken to court but when it was discovered how poor he lived, his sentence was quite lessened. That's justice rendered with mercy. As for the death of Jesus, It was to abolish animal sacrifices and was also needed for him to conquer death itself before rising up to show people that God owns everything, including death itself, thus can raise up anyone. As for the Orishas, these are the intelligent and creative talents present in every individuals, even as they're also Yoruba ancestors. Celebrating these ancestors or festivals💤 of these ancestors is to celebrate history and also a constant reminder to bring forth these talents for the betterment of the world, just like the ancestors such as Ogun, Oko, Sango, Osoosi, Oya, Olokun etc had done. |

Questionnaires:Thank you sir I appreciate Sorry I used he instead of energies And thank you for talking about the polarity of our world Good and bad Eastern and western Material and immaterial Internal and external Etc I was talking about the immaterial, internal unseen part to explain who Satan is Immaterial energies because they can't be seen And I always talk about the immaterial but I try to use the material to explain what I try to explain Inside us is the immaterial world with the heart as the center One part of us deals with emotions and healing The other part deals with reason and logic One part deals with being trust ,hope and believe , stability and being grounded The last deals with passion and fiery natures All living in harmony and balance to the service of the heart or soul.. With their rulers Satan rules the part of passion and fiery nature..saturn He is seen as tricky, betrayer,evil because and very powerful because when we harness the passionate fiery part of us it without the harmony of others we do stupid things..like a man that passionately wants to be ruler...or wants to own something passionately and he does everything to get it...he may get it but at what cost..the people he cheated,betrayed,trampled upon...there is no beauty in all of that he feels empty he becomes soulless and bound to the devil which is the personification of evil..unless he learns his lessons and changes...I have to go back to work now Satan just rules the house of passion that is my point.. we harness his powers with control and balance unless it becomes a lesson to learn and if we don't learn we lose our beautiful souls I wish I could calm down and explain this things maybe you should watch the last Airbender They explained alot in that anime Cheers |

MaxInDHouse: All these stories written up in the Bible Were All Made Up By Who ? Don't You Think These Are All Stories Made Up By The Same Government Who Wants To Rule Over People ? I Believe The JW Are People That Can Heal The World If They Can See Through These Whole Stories As Fairy Tales. Here is My Question: Where Is The Garden of Eden Located On Earth ? |

Questionnaires: Now you've proved me right that you are biased towards the Bible but it's a welcome development because you yourself said: "I Believe The JW Are People That Can Heal The World" If you can utter such then you've commended the Bible already because the organization of Jehovah's Witnesses is formed through the study of the Bible. This is what Jesus said about his real disciples: "You are the light of the world. A city cannot be hid when located on a mountain. People light a lamp and set it, not under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it shines on all those in the house. Likewise, let your light shine before men, so that they may see your fine works and give glory to your Father who is in the heavens." Matthew 5:14-16 So glory be Jehovah the God of Jehovah's Witnesses for helping His true worshipers to fulfill what is written in His word! |

MaxInDHouse: I Have Nothing Against The Bible. I Was Born A Christian. However, Experiential Intelligence Pivoted Me To Becoming A Spiritual-Atheistic-Christiano-Islamo-Trado (SACIT) Being. I'm Very SACIT. In Brief: You Can Liken Me To Being A "Spiritual Atheist". 1 Like |
