Wiziman:
I'd rather not live like there isn't a God
Than die and find out there really is
Think about it

So u recklessly embrace stupidity because of fear of something that makes zero sense..

Most religious people practice their religion due to fear...
Someone once said, to scare a child, tell him a masquerade is coming, to scare an adult, tell him a god is coming

Lucifersticlala:
This is the first step to religious conning.

First they make you emotional to deaden your logic, then they rip you off.

Usually through sermons that indicate how lucky you are to be alive so you can part with your coin.



*spits

And people are over there shouting thank you Jesus... The same Jesus that gave no Fucck about the others perishing.
One irony of life is that, same people shouting thank you Jesus today, Jesus won't save them in times of tragedy and some other lucky people will see their situation and shout thank you Jesus too.

OkaiCorne:
You want us to discuss the 66 books of the Bible on this thread and start filtering out errors verse by verse? Not even an entire thread will do justice to that.


Bottom line is I've made my position on the Bible clear.

Nope, of course not...

But your conclusion about the Bible is all I ask in summary...whats your truth if the whole story from genesis to revelation was constructed to speak of a man and woman created by Yahweh, then the bad guy satan who turned the creatures against their creator, then the fight for redemption, then the good guy jesus who came in as sacfrice.... That's the whole essence of the script right, isn't not that the whole foundation of Christianity, so tell me, which part is true or untrue to you?

OkaiCorne:
And I said the entire Bible is incorrect?


When you mix truth with errors and perhaps lies, does the errors/lies invalidate the truth?

What is important here is doing a thorough research and also rely on intuition and spirituality to filter out the lies/errors from the Truth...

So which part of the Bible have you been able to filter out as correct, perhaps the ones that appeal to you?

mauriceju2:
It supposed to be between 45000 to 50000 if you take inflation and purchasing power into account, APC = scam/419, Johnathan was a good man, where are the labour union that all most burn Nigeria down during the time of Johnathan? What can a government worker with a family of 4 children plus father and mother making it 6 do with 30000 now?? Corruption is here to stay in Nigeria, how do you think they will train their 4 children to university level without involving in corruption

Why should you have four children with a monthly income of 30k...people should blame themselves before blaming the government.

OkaiCorne:
The Bible did not arrive by fax from Heaven or wherever. It was written by mere mortals with their understanding of truth at the time. Unfortunately, over the centuries it has been translated into various languages with errors and perhaps lies mixed with truth...watering down on its original contents...

The truth in it's pure and raw form is unwritten. It is best discovered by intuition.

So this current bible is incorrect.

Then why do u still quote from it if you do

OkaiCorne:
I get where you are going. This is going to be an interesting discussion.

If you're expecting us to use the old testament as a basis for our discussion, then there are certain things we need to consider.

The ancient Jews attributed everything Good and Evil as an act of "Jehovah" then at some point in time, their thinking somewhat changed from that to Good comes from God and Evil things come from Satan...

Then fast forward to the new testament, Heavenly Father ( notice that Jesus never referred to God by any name but this - I stand to be corrected) now appears to be a loving and compassionate personality compared to the seemingly brute and no nonsense strict personality in the old testament.


Now you might be wondering why I've said all these so far...

The nature/personality of God does not change, rather it is humanity's perception and understanding of Him that changes over time.

Let's use a basic example here. The way you see your Father as a child would most likely differ from the way you see him as an adult. He might appear harsh, strict or wicked in raising you up, but that's your understanding of him at that time given your limited understanding of his actions.

But as you grow into a young adult, the way you both relate changes as you get to understand him better and vice-versa.

Same applies with the way the Jews have come to understand the nature of God over time.

It was the bible that spoke of the evil personality of mass murder and merciless killing from God, are u saying the bible is just a mere human conception of God?

MrPENIS:
I pity people who insists that God and his son Jesus christ do not Exist.
They shall cry blood when they're left behind.
I wish i could just look at their faces on that day, but damn i wont be with them either

So u can't wait for the day billions of people will be tortured by your god simply for not believing stories told to them...

You and your god are sick psychopaths

Jayslicky:
You reaped what you sowed!!!! You voted for a dullard and you expect your community to be safe, no need complaining, enjoy the next level you desperately wanted.

Hector09:
I dont feel pity for d north cus they knw waht they re doing

Omololu001:
Most of my them voted for said Buhari. Let them all cry to him

are you all saying if atiku had won there won't have been an attack on zamfara, politics has successfully ruined your conscience. I believe people have a choice of who they elect and that's democracy, their choice is not yours, you are probably worse than the leaders you blame.

Just marry someone u don't know from anywhere

Religion is indeed a sad thing. It's causes retardation

Ugoww01:
Don't underestimate the power of GOD

Has the prayer made him the winner of the election?

Meritocracy:
It's like online voting is favouring APC now, unlike two days ago.

Why say so

We all know prayer is useless, no matter how hard he prays, it won't change anything.

As election draws closer, I begin to feel atiku stands no chance

Eko for show

APCpackandgo:
It is Mohammed that is useless. Shege Dan iska.

Yeah, you are right. They are useless. The world moves on without them

Malawian:
I already wrote before reading through.

You are not patient, I bet you have a dot on your forehead

Malawian:
There is a dot on your forehead. Am i wrong?

Lol, I got your sarcasm, unfortunately, you did not get mine

D9nt be too quick to judge, the girl must have seduced him with revealing clothes ...



Obviously a rapist has no excuse

APCpackandgo:
You are more than useless.

Cry if you want, your Jesus name is useless

Emereolevanwill:
Y is this on FP

Very wrong of the mod that pushed this to fp

naijapips02:
all the video we have seen of the crash landing was a military helicopter.

Like this video below.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diPuddDpDMo

would be nice if you can provide the authentic video of the crash landing.

there was no official claim that it was the video of the crash, people started sharing that video claiming it was the vp.

That wasn't the VP's chopper, sorry for your research, you spent your energy on the wrong one because immediately I saw the video, I knew at once it was a fake.

selch:
Look at your foolishness, a fish lives its all its life in the water, does it know its in the water, so is u and your stupidity. Frustrated human being like you.

Why so much pain, no need to trade words... Just simply cure the child in the name of jesus and save this whole drama...otherwise, that name remains useless and is only useful as a psychological relief

deepwater:
I dedicate this FTC to little Beniah

Be healed IJN



That is your believe don't force on others.

You claim it's useless but 98% of your comments since your joining Nairaland in 2015 has been on religion and attacking the Christian faithfull. Is this your full Time job ?

Your real life must be a living hell, always typing as if you have a gun pointed to your head all the time.

Not a full time job, out of tight schedules, I still come here to remind deluded people like your self to wake up from self deceit. Gradually a few are coming out, soon, our nation will be populated with more realistic people and your likes clouded with religious myths will fade away.... Gradually I say.
Then gradually, our nation will shift energy from religion and focus on practical approaches that work in the world of today.

BTW, no matter the number of times you pray in the name of jesus, it's useless. The best you will get is the psychological satisfaction that you have prayed. Let's not pretend to ourselves, you know this yourself deep within you, deepwater...your ijn will never ever cure the child.

So much anger, pain and hatred

deepwater:
I dedicate this FTC to little Beniah

Be healed IJN

Pray for his healing ijn a thousand times, nothing will change except if the surgery is done.
Jesus name is useless

spectator2001:
You sound more carnal. I reside in a country where no one within the age of 16-59 attend any church, and it's a nation founded by Christians. One of the most successful nations in the world. Australia. Nigerians are fighting everyday tooth and nail to get a visa to visit this country.

The only people you see in the church? Very old men and women in their 70's trying to make it to "heaven" if at all it exists.

Now where are the youths? They are busy socializing with their wives and kids having a more quality family time after a fruitful week. Church going on sundays for most Nigerians is now a ritual and nothing more. It no longer serve whatever purpose it was intended for. How do you explain the extents people go just to "dress up" to go worship?

Now, this youth is talking about Halleluyah challenge, the earlier you guys channel your energy towards better challenges that can enhance your conditions in that hell-hole country, the better for you.

Look at your pastors building the largest church auditoriums in the world? Whatever happened to building the largest chemistry laboratory in the world? oh, the black man can't think!

You sir, are a mentally incapacitated sluggard for terming my submissions carnal.

Gradually, Africans will be emancipated. But not in this generation plagued with mentally incapacitated people who pray for problems to be solved. And when you tell them, they go emotional and sentimental believing they are fighting their invincible battle

sureheaven:
Don't get it twisted.

It's never warning from God, it's a sign of love.

Enemies planned it, God saw it, God allowed it happened, God shows love, He save his Son.

Enemies are now put into shame.

You are at an interview in shell and they give you this as a case study, would this be your response....

Then you guys will say the rest of the world look down on you when you blacks are mentally deluded beyond repair.

AgentGoat:
How many inventions our bible believing men have in their names?

They invent nothing but noise

OneCorner:
Smh for the black race

blacks are so sentimental emotionally, scared of facts, will rather celebrate delusions
