Akin1212:you are not even aware that you are killing some microorganisms in your body processes. That you are not doing the killing deliberately but just found yourself doing it. A force more than you is responsible . 2. The ecology of the relationship between all living and non living things is guided by a law of balance. A deviation brings a manifestation either pleasant or unpleasant like allowing our hypothetical germ above some fertile grounds in our affairs which can lead to an health food like yoghurt or ill health like HIV. 3. when you say an unintelligent and unconscious energy can create intelligent and conscious universe and its not even aware of it ,isn't that worse than imbecility? what is consciousness? Energy is the ability to do work or bring forth manifestations . Being able to bring forth manifestations is a deliberate attribute of a conscious intelligence. 4. Everything about the world is intelligent. Even the chaos that comes with nature has some intelligence behind their being. For example ,isnt man intelligent? Also, from the structure of the micro world as represented by an atom to the the galaxies all show that there is an intelligent force behind these manifestations. |

Mankind are created by God and given certain level of freewill and responsibility that come long with it. God details those responsibility like: Only God is worthy of being worship, Be dutiful to parent and do good to His creatures. Do not obey Satan and his minions. Allah tests mankind with goods things and bad things. Like wealth, health, Power, Sickness, Satan lures and suggestion, misfortunes etc. We mankind are here on earth for a test and the judgement day for results and prizes. To see which of us is best in conducts. God does what He will. Allah embedded man to instinctively detect what is good and bad. He also sends prophets,righteous men, signposts and holy books to guide man. |

OkaiCorne:What kind of question is this? Who is science? Do u even know what science is? Wrongly aplied logic is because of faulty thinking. Pls do not derail... i am not going to talk some meaningless jargons with u |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by frank317: 6:47am On Nov 07, 2017 |
Ezkid:Oga... if i accept that God exist according to u... can u tell me how u got to know God is one individual? Hw did they are not many or a happy family of Gods? How did u know its definitely not a black smoke of aliens or super balls that created tye universe. Concluding that God exist is not an answer to anything... its the begining of questions. |

frank317:Be patient, I am pointing your attention to something if you really want to learn. Is faulty thinking attributable to logic or intuition? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by frank317: 7:05am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:wrongly applied logic is attributed to faulty thinking |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 7:41am On Nov 07, 2017 |
frank317:Thanks for your patience, we are getting somewhere now. I'll continue from here ASAP Logic aside, do you also agree that wrong imagination can also lead to faulty thinking? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by frank317: 8:20am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:of course |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 8:37am On Nov 07, 2017 |
frank317:Thanks boss...now do you notice how Imaginations lead to faulty thinking and how logic results from faulty thinking? Do you know that Intuition is faster than logic but may be wrong or right? Do you know that Logic is slower than Intuition but is almost always right? Would you prefer to be fast and right than be slow and right? Please be patient, we are getting somewhere...Just a quick one, are you an atheist or agnostic? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by Akin1212(op): 8:44am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:When are you going to understand what logic is and what intuition is? You don't need to blend intuition with logic when thinking is concerned. Edison failed 1,000 times because his logic was not correct 999 times. It's very simple as ABC. Logic is the boss, intuition just nods when logic is in action. It is logic that will give your intuition a boost. By intuition, you know I am a human being typing on the other side of your screen, you don't need to think to know that. Everything is in the link you posted but you're ignoring it. Do you know why science has not seen the cure for HIV? Because the virus keeps changing, let's not bring this in because you know little about it, a fact I know that by intuition. And remember I told you that if science can't explain it, then nobody can. Has any ideology found a cure for HIV? NO And if any ideology would, it would be science, it can't be religion. Our ancestors practised science but they were not aware of it. |

Babacele:1)You are deliberately handing me victory as I said earlier. Force is not a conscious property. If there is a force killing microorganisms involuntarily(Which is wrong) why does it know when to stop and when to act? There are millions of microorganisms in the body that doesn't get killed at all, why is the force skipping these microorganisms? You are treading a wrong path in your knowledge and it's not a good thing at all. Albeit, the killing of microorganisms is not done by a force. It is done by chemicals which our body produces as a result of the invasion. Our body knows that there is an invasion and it produces substances which kill the invader. This is a voluntary action. 2)Lol, why are you turning science upside down? Before we continue this journey, are you a scientist? I am not going to allow you explain what you don't know. It's bad for knowledge. The production of Yoghurt is not a manifestation of any sort as a result of any imbalance, neither is the HIV virus a manifestation. Do not abuse science, I am not going to allow that to happen. 3)This world was not intelligently made, look around you. don't look at the man-made structures, just look. You will see that the world was badly made, we are only trying to make it look good. Energy just formed something and it didn't even know it. Do you know you are made up of nonliving matter? For you to know that everything is energy, try to run 100 miles without eating for 2 days, and let's see if you will not collapse despite that you have a God. |

OkaiCorne: ![]() whats ur point Please be patient, we are getting somewhere...Just a quick one, are you an atheist or agnostic?[/quote]I dont know if a God exist... I have never seen one and i have never had a reasonable explanation of any creator. I think we should stick to accepting we dont know how it all came to be instead of assuming up a creator like u are doing and messing our thinking process up by trying to explain what we asummed up. Based on lack of knowledge and good explanation... I dont believe any God exist. But i am willing to accept if one reveals himself to me. u can label me on ur own from the above |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 8:48am On Nov 07, 2017 |
Akin1212:Based on the bolded...if you rely on logic alone...what differentiates you from a Robot in terms of thinking? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 8:50am On Nov 07, 2017 |
frank317:I see you as someone who is also seeking the TRUTH... I am not comfortable labelling you atheistic or agnostic either. Be Patient...we are getting somewhere... Do you know it is possible to train yourself to make accurate decisions with intuition in the absence of COMPLETE DETAILS logic would require? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 8:57am On Nov 07, 2017 |
Akin1212:I bolded the above comment of yours just to remind of what I have been repeating over and over again. If the answer to complex matters lies in the basics, why can't you accept the countless basic examples I have given you on the existence of an Eternal Creator? Why can't you give me a basic example to counter the examples I gave you earlier? why? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by frank317: 9:02am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:I really dont know what this means... please can u explain further. why would there be complete absence of details logic would need? where will the details go? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by Akin1212(op): 9:06am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:Robots don't think, they don't have a brain. They only make decisions according to what has been programmed by humans. It's all about object-oriented programming and machine learning. If this is A, say A If input is B say No If 1 is less than input, say you have not eaten. Humans are not like that, humans think their logic, robots have theirs programmed. I was disappointed with the question, but I assumed you didn't know, hence I did justice to it. Are we clear now? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by Akin1212(op): 9:08am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:Because your examples are not related to the matter of discussion and because your examples are not logical. They are based on intuition which is not applicable. |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 9:20am On Nov 07, 2017 |
frank317:Let us go through your memory lane for instance. Are there instances where you have been forced to make a quick decision based on your intuition (instincts)? You did not have details of what was happening but you had to make a decision? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 9:21am On Nov 07, 2017 |
Akin1212:Is it logical to have a story without a beginning? I am asking you a logical question now...no intuition is needed for this. |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by Akin1212(op): 9:33am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:This is not an example, it is a question. Even though it doesn't relate to the discussion of whether there is a God or not. If you want to start asking questions, answer the ones before you. |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by Babacele: 9:39am On Nov 07, 2017 |
Akin1212:come off it bro. a factor beyond your control is responsible for your biological processes whether it is breathing, digestion or sleeping. Call it chemical or whatever the well coordinated processes kill the microorganisms and spare some and like a well built engine everypart works fine according to the builder's original plan. Why it is like that the engine may never know. Even when sleep, these processes go on without your permission. Oh tell me that it is not an imbalance in the number of a particular colony of bacteria in a quantity of fresh milk that gives yoghurt or that the introduction of a foreign germ ,virus, into our body causes breakdown or imbalance in us we tag HIV? 2. Tell me the most sophisticated and complicated machine on earth - man, is not intelligently made? photosynthesis, DNA structures, electric fish, the eagle , weathering, Rainfall , the planetary bodies etc are a result of an intelligent and unconscious energy? 3. There are different forms of the manifestation of the Universal intelligent force, energy or God. Funning enough I was dumped by a religionist Christian lover few months ago when I referred to God as a Universal intelligent Force. I really damn in love with her but she feels God is a robot meant for only Christians definition alone. So I ask again you again when you sleep are the one controlling your breathing? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 9:43am On Nov 07, 2017 |
Babacele:The person you are arguing with is a Scientist with a background in Biology and Chemistry. If you don't give him links to articles from global leading scientists...He will still disagree with you. |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 9:44am On Nov 07, 2017 |
Akin1212:You cannot connect the dots? Is that what you are confessing as an atheist right now? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by frank317: 9:58am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:The result of decisions made based soley on intuition are usually based on luck... the result could be positive or nagative and dependent solely on other factors. Its like gambling... throwing ur dice because u have a feeling it will display a high number. One good thing about logic is that it puts all fators in control for its own advantage |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 10:03am On Nov 07, 2017 |
frank317:Perfect! Now we are getting somewhere! I'll be back shortly. I'm in transit right now. Please and please, I am not asking to believe in an Eternal Creator, I just want you to use a combination of logic and intuition to come up with a convincing argument that there is no Eternal Creator. Do you understand me? I want to learn something from you. |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by frank317: 10:36am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:U asked me if i was an atheist or agnostic and this was my reply below I dont know if a God exist... I have never seen one and i have never had a reasonable explanation of any creator. I think we should stick to accepting we dont know how it all came to be instead of assuming up a creator like u are doing and messing our thinking process up by trying to explain what we asummed up. Based on lack of knowledge and good explanation... I dont believe any God exist. But i am willing to accept if one reveals himself to me.[i][/i] U already have ur answer to the question above... I am getting frustrated with ur thinking and some how its making me quite sad that such a promising young man can be this shallow. I have asked you to be careful when u let ur imaginations run wide. Assuming there is a creator brings up many questions like some that i have been asking Saying there must be a creator is not a solution to how we came... its just a bogus make believe statement... it only makes sense if u can say resonable things about this creator. I assumed i have passed the stage of weather a creator exists or not with u for long. I have always made my stand clear that we should accept we are ignorant of how we came while waiting and working towards more information. But if u want to confidently conclude there is one... then i will be glad and will like to take a step further in u telling me things about this creator u are so confident about... if u cant tell me things about it... dont lie to me that there is one because ur assumptions cannot take us anywhere. |

frank317:Do you understand how Intuition forms a part of my conclusions on an Eternal Creator? Do you really want to know? The answer is very simple even if there are no exact details for logic to feast up on. Are you ready for my answer? |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 10:49am On Nov 07, 2017 |
frank317:Back to this...let us go back to the basics. Intuition is very fast but may be right or wrong. Logic is slow in the face of incomplete details but when these details are available, it would always lead you to the right answer. Logic, no matter how slow is still essential in confirming whether your intuition is right or wrong. The gap between the speed of intuition and logic is TIME. Instead of Atheists and Theists shouting over who is right or wrong...why not let TIME be the judge? ![]() The opinion of an atheist or theist does not change the TRUTH from being the TRUTH |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by frank317: 11:01am On Nov 07, 2017 |
OkaiCorne:is intuition a reliable source of truth? we have gone over and over on how intuition without logic is just a wide guess... yet u are still on about intuition. Do you really want to know? The answer is very simple even if there are no exact details for logic to feast up on.yes... talk to me and let me get it over with... |
| Re: Second amendment-> How do you find God, By intuition or by Logic? by OkaiCorne(m): 11:07am On Nov 07, 2017*. Modified: 11:25am On Nov 07, 2017 |
frank317:Do you understand me when I say INTUITION+LOGIC=INSIGHT Read that post carefully where I stated "intuition formed A PART of my conclusion" Did you go through my last post at all? Logic will confirm intuition with time. TIME is the best judge on my conclusion and NOT YOUR OPINION Whether you think I am right or wrong...I don't care. Let TIME judge me... Now get ready for my answer which is just COMMON SENSE. I didn't read fables from a religious book to arrive at my conclusion. I'll be back shortly. |
