KingEbukasBlog:Oh gosh! Snakes had the power of speech? ![]() The snake was humanoid ? ![]() Then Satan ( a yet to be defined imaginary entity) possessed the talking humanoid snake , And made the snake seduce Eve to bear Cain? And you are a university student ? ![]() I think you are benignly insane. Seriously. I wish you hadn't mentioned my name in this absurd assemblage of nonsense. Again, today, as I ask every single day, .why does an educated African mind tend to be beholden to the magical, the absurd, the primitive worldview, even when the obvious stares them in the face ? |

plaetton:I'm sure you would have screamed "yay , you have gained mental sovereignty " if I told you that aliens engineered Eve's genes by sleeping with her or the snake was an alien in humanoid form who seduced Eve . ![]() |

UyiIredia:Your religion is making you dense and idiotic as the days go by. Why comparing Jewish mythology that has never done anything good for mankind to science that has helpleed in advancing and bettering the human struggle as a whole. |

dalaman:UyiIredia , did you notice that he didn't refute your post ? Instead he attacked your personality and made false claims - sums up their conspicuous low intellectual capacity , every single one of them . |

The question shld always be... Why did God put the tree there in the first place. |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by Nobody: 1:10pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
Christians, why are we suffering for the sin Adam and Eve committed in their own foolishness, when the Bible clearly states in Ezekiel 18:20: "20 The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself. ? Answer correctly and put these atheists to shame, once and for all time. |

| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by dalaman: 1:41pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
KingEbukasBlog:What is there to refute in a dumb narrative. Can you please tell me how eating a fruit from a tree causes knowledge of good and evil? What has Jewish mythology got to with anything? |

MzNelly: Lol.... Bible also said the reverse in exodus 20:5 I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me. and also Deuteronomy 5:9 I agree though, answer and put the atheists to shame once for all time |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by UyiIredia(m): 2:25pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
MzNelly:There are two sides to a coin and sometimes they fall the other way. The same Bible says in Exodus 34:7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation. That's the other side. God made a promise to Abraham that is evident to this day in the state of Israel. But the mistake of Abraham in being to hasty led to Ishmael whose descendants include Arabs that antagonize Israel. So Abraham's mistake had repercussions. God didn't curse all generations. In fact the only curse involving other people was in Gen 3:15 when God said he will put enmity between the serpent's seed and the seed of the woman. God only cursed Adam, Eve and the serpent but because of the wrong actions the three took all humanity suffered. Thomas Edison's ingenuity helped generations and multitudes afterwards enjoy light and recorded music. Abacha's wickedness and looting costs Nigeria till this day. Darwin's theory has led to the rise of many atheists TILL NOW since he explained creation without God. So the reason why Adam's sin caused the death of all men is simply repercussions. He must have sen how Cain killed his younger brother. Thats what rebellion does. BTW in Gen 5:24 Enoch walked with God and God helped him escape death. His case is even BETTER THAN Jesus. Jesus died and rose again. Enoch and Elijah did not die. Enoch teleported to heaven while chariots took Elijah there. Even if God didn't curse Adam, Eve and the serpent for the wrong their evil would still have been occurred given their new found knowledge of it. That's why they didn't like being naked and attempted to cover up themselves with fig leaves as one would expect from primitives. Their knowledge made them ashamed of their unclothedness, afraid of being with God who made them naked and made them to proud to apologize. Instead they played the blame game. So even if God didn't curse them they would still have messed creation up. In conclusion, there are 3 magic words. Please, which is used to make a request. Thanks, when a request is granted and Sorry, when a request has been disobeyed. Why didn't Adam simply apologize for eating the fruit. Till today atheists still blame God for planting the tree and not Adam for eating it. They are impolite, and proud ingrates with respect to their Creator. |

UyiIredia:Make sense |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by Nobody: 2:42pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
KingEbukasBlog:oh really? well, here it is. you should save it this time. ![]() man was created by nothing. then man created nothing and called it God. now, both man and God have intelligent origins. and THAT, is exactly what happened.i still think it's better than yours though. i just can't fathom why a God would worship another God. that's just ridiculous. ![]() |

CoolUsername:Nope , his purpose was to digress from the issue at hand and his response was not pertinent one bit - that was my observation |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by Nobody: 2:46pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
KingEbukasBlog:guy, chill. satan is not featured in the creation story abeg. in fact, i doubt if he was ever mentioned in the whole of genesis. the snake itself is the one supposedly responsible for what happened. |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by KingEbukasBlog(m): 2:49pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
frank317:If this implies being lost , then ifeness is in oblivion . This is the religion section and it says : "Share your faith and belief in God ... " - that was/is/will be what I had done /have done /will continue doing . I clearly said that I had done researches and those were the interpretations given You are giving me more reasons to call you uneducated every single day |

KingEbukasBlog:Thanks. |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by Nobody: 2:51pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
UyiIredia:good point. except there probably was no concept for sorry then. they had just been created. they didn't know how sorry worked. the tree didn't give them good manners. only made them wiser. observe children. they instinctively learn to shift blame without you teaching them. same thing with fairly intelligent animals. you have to teach them to take responsiblity. humans know this. you have to teach kids to say sorry, please, and thank you. being "wise" doesn't give you that. so, i ask you, why didn't god tell him to shut up and say sorry? |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by KingEbukasBlog(m): 2:51pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
Teempakguy:You know nothing . I think you should start reading the bible by reciting Psalm 23 for 2 months or something . Jeez , your response is really shallow |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by Nobody: 2:59pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
KingEbukasBlog:why don't you start by reading the whole of genesis and showing me where satan was mentioned? ![]() even the book of genesis stated that the decision was solely that of the snake. genesis 3:1-4 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”show me where satan was mentioned or even implied. or thunder fire that your fake bible. ![]() |

Oh here's a more elucidated explanation . Just focus on the main issue DoubleDeeX: |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by UyiIredia(m): 3:09pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
Teempakguy:Other books in the Bible refer to the creation story and mention details not seen in Genesis. Books like Job, Isaiah and Proverbs. |

KingEbukasBlog:I think he should be ignored. The guy dey waste pesin time. |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by Nobody: 3:14pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
KingEbukasBlog:this is the most sexist thing i've ever read in my entire life. anyway. 1. Adam did not sleep with eve until they had been expelled from the garden. 2. Cain was not mentioned in Adam's genealogy because he was irrelevant in the scheme of things. i.e HIS genealogy didn't lead to jesus. 3. Adam also had several other children. not just Cain. Abel and these other children were not mentioned. of obvious reasons. 4. the bible never mentioned that the snake slept with eve. nor did it imply such a thing. 5. satan does not exist in genesis. |

KingEbukasBlog: After fornicating with the serpent, Eve went back home and slept with her husband the same day,What's the verse of the bible where this is written? |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by hahn(m): 3:17pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
Teempakguy:Where exactly is it written in the bible that Eve slept with the snake? And how can a human and snake produce a human without snake traits? @kingebukasblog |
| Re: Answer This With An Open Mind by Nobody: 3:27pm On Nov 14, 2015 |
UyiIredia:chapter and verses please? the reference in isaiah is ridiculous. for several reasons. 1. the verse clearly implies that whoever it was they were talking about came about AFTER the creation stories. when there were many kingdoms and people. in verse 12, in the last line, it says, you who once laid low the nation. 2. the verse was NOT talking about satan. it was talking about the king of babylon. it is supposed to be a taunt that the israelites were supposed to use against the king of babylon when "the lord" must have defeated him. check verse 3 and keep reading till you finish the chapter (chapter 14) and come and show me where isaiah said he was talking about satan. ![]() the reference in job is not the satan in the new testament. he is an angel of the lord in the that book. a son of God in fact. ![]() seriously, don't you guys ever read your bibles? ![]() |
