I see that you still haven't done your research on North Korea. 2 years ago I said the following to you; still very much applicable.


"On North Korea, you should read more articles. 66 per cent of the popluation are followers of the Juche philsophy which is modeled after modern christainity. As an example they worship the trinity of "Kim Il Sung, the former leader of North Korea who died in 1994, his wife Kim Jung Sook, and his son, Kim Jong Il". You can see a lot more similarities here : http://dotheword.org/2014/03/17/how-is-north-koreas-juche-ideology-similar-to-christianity/."

Trina0936:
How do you know its a myth?? Any proof??

Trina0936:
You don't understand me. You know mankind is always seeking ways of not going into extinction and generally selfish. For instance,let me ask you an honest question,if you knew how to live forever,would you rather choose death??
That is exactly why God created death after Adam and Eve sinned as a punishment for trying to be like Him!
You also know that if Adam and Eve had not eaten the forbidden fruit,it would still be just the two of them right??

Raphael81:
Are you forced to worship God?

Trina0936:
Actually it is a proof because man is yet to find a permanent 'solution' to it. Did you really think if man had a way of stopping death,they wouldn't use it??

Raphael81:
Hell is a choice heaven is a choice

Raphael81:

Thoniameek:
What might I ask is the atheist way? Is it the hitler or Stalin way?

HCpaul:
I understand your point bro. Infact, I had an encounter with a man who started telling me some hidden secrets of my life immediately when sighting me. To be sincere, I couldn't deny those predictions because they was accurately given.

But is that enough to validate the supernatural? Definitely no!

There are natural processes taken place and they've sharpen their instincts and inner intuitive ability beyond Normal scenario. They work with discretions which sometimes their prophecies will be void and totally inaccurate.

Anyone can prophecy if he or she wants to, just that who cares? ? ?

AmenRa1:
See they is a scientific explanation for all those stuff I just decided to explain it a way everyone would understand!!

AmenRa1:
What does he mean by spiritual manifestation? Is it when parstor waves his hand and people start falling?? We are in a country were people consider their pastor as "God" a special man, God chosen. I really don't know where that ideology came from but if people start considering their pastor as "God" don't U think it would have a psychological Effect on them Why? Because this is a God they can actually see any every action is to please Him! Now explaining the spiritual manifestation Last two years If I am correct The musicians P-Square Went to perform on stage, immediately they stepped on stage and start singing Two Girls Fainted What would U Call That?? That they were over come by the holy spirit? Of course not it's just the way their brain precieve things. The musician Michael Jackson Steps on Stage More That 100people Fainted What Do U Call That??

honourhim:
For the first time i commend your reasoning here. You made sense.

SirWere:
Ahh, true. Many efforts are being made by the more enlightened; less fundamentalist religious groups to find some common ground with the opposite side. And in each case, they've met with partial success.

However, each of the sides have some deranged members who wake up each day and decide those groups trying to find common ground are going against their deities will and states it explicity in their various scriptures.

Some even resort to brute force, suicide bombings, verbal attacks, defamation of characters et al et al.

Each of these deranged member truly believe he or she is right- their ultimate conviction is that they are justified. Some even say their particular deity told them!

In each case; many of the members of that particular religious group condemn such acts; they call them the few "bad eggs"; they post memes and "unite" against such evil acts.

....and yet, and yet, the attacks on the "unbelievers" or "infidels" continue.

Why is it that it is among the most religious that we see the highest degree of fanaticism; the strongest level of denying reality? Why is it that the most commited to any particular religion are the most violent? The ones most particularly commited to evil acts or harsh words??

Granted, moves to cancel religion are most extreme. The best one can do now is to reduce the level of religiosity amongst people.

And then; time will take care of things.

promise10:
Such false doctrine emanates from wrong understanding and interpretation of the bible.

Imagine, a pastor who killed his church members by laying a speaker on her. That's false doctrines, which you can never find in the bible. And in no way does it threaten the credibility of the gospel. Only insincere fools think it does!

No matter how a message is read, misunderstood and misinterpreted, it doesn't make it a lie.

shaybebaby:
Yet the same leaders wine and dine with religious leaders that the masses look up to.
I am saying that if we are all so religious, why aren't we helping each other?
Why are we blind to the suffering of others? Why do people say they will pray rather than doing something practical to alleviate the suffering of others?
The masses have lost all belief in their own power as religion has been used to brainwash them into thinking that cannot be active participants in changing their own lives.
I read on another thread (it was hilarious but sad) how a kid answered his exam question-he didn't know the answer and instead started begging for mercy in the name of Jesus and mentioning where he worships, also saying that the teacher should let God touch her heart so as not to fail him.
That is the sort of fervour commonplace in Nigeria and as a consequence, people absolve themselves of taking responsibility for their own lives. That sort of thinking is saying to yourself you are powerless in the face of whatever life might throw at you and at the mercy of your God. When a simple revision would have removed the need of begging with Gods name.
Now if you feel that helpless to help yourself, how can you begin to feel like you can help someone else? You do the same as with your self, wait for someone else step in. So everyone is waiting for God to intervene.
Now just try to imagine that there is no God, no one to come to anyone's rescue, what would you do in that instance?
Whatever that is is what Nigerians need to start doing...but at it's heart, putting the collective social wellbeing of every citizen.

If the bible was written over a period of 4500 years, and 2000 years after, some people are saying end time is taking forever. I can only smile. Only God knows the hour.

winner01:
Please by all means, eradicate religion.

The movement to eradicate religion has started since the 14th century, try your luck too.

Just be ready to kill several people just as former atheist leaders did. Without that, your great grand children will open this same thread with the same title in 200 years time.
