Christianity Etc › Re: If God Gives Life Why Do Christians Have Sex To Reproduce? by respect80(m): 4:54pm On Mar 05, 2017
carzola:
From my study I feel Christianity is one
Of the most contradicted region in the world.
From the story of the creation I have not doubt that God created Adam and Eve..
Buh after Adam and eve its simple science
A man and woman come together have sex
And reproduce.. So why do Christians feel
God gives life? Why do they feel God holds the key to their life.. And if God gives life
Why do Christians have sex to reproduce?
To become an atheist you need a lot to do.
Pls read books and get enlightened so as not to embarrass yourself in the public like you did.

Christianity Etc › Life After Death by respect80(op): 11:07pm On Feb 24, 2017
NOW THIS IS AN EXCEPTIONAL ANALOGY

Something interesting regarding those who believe and those who don't believe in God ! Very interesting. It stimulates our lateral thinking :

This lovely parable is from "Your Sacred Self" by Dr. Wayne Dyer.

In a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked the other: “Do you believe in life after delivery?”The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.”

“Nonsense” said the first. “There is no life after delivery. What kind of life would that be?”

The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.”

The first replied, “That is absurd. Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? Ridiculous! The umbilical cord supplies nutrition and everything we need. But the umbilical cord is so short. Life after delivery is to be logically excluded.”

The second insisted, “Well I think there is something and maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.”

The first replied, “Nonsense. And moreover if there is life, then why has no one ever come back from there? Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery there is nothing but darkness and silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.”

“Well, I don’t know,” said the second, “but certainly we will meet Mother and she will take care of us.”

The first replied “Mother? You actually believe in Mother? That’s laughable. If Mother exists then where is She now?”

The second said, “She is all around us. We are surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live. Without Her this world would not and could not exist.”

Said the first: “Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that She doesn’t exist.”

To which the second replied, “Sometimes, when you’re in silence and you focus and listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can hear Her loving voice, calling down from above.”

May be this was one of the best explanations to the concept of 'GOD'.

luqxxee:
As a young of just 20 I was born into a Muslim family though my dad doesn't pray his five daily prayers but beliefs strongly in Allah. I on the other hand wants to correct my parents mistakes so enrolled myself into Islamic school at 15. but then a point came in my life where I started doubting some stuffs about my religion like the miracles like dividing the moon into two, commanding trees to bow down and so on. The idea of a supernatural being controlling the lives of over a billion people on earth sounds illogical to me. But then i still cannot believe that we living on earth is by chance. somebody please help me.
so I can say that you are presently an agnostic.
Its a nice step to dive into the idea of determining the veracity of your faith.
I will encourage you to try reading other religious books which you can easily access to find out which one could possibly justify your purpose of existence cos the idea of becoming an atheist won't help matters at all cos God is really REAL.

That's Mario Joseph who talked about how he suffered persecution from his own Muslim parents until he became a Christian.
He also talked of Jesus being referred to as "kallemetulla" an Arabic word which means the word of God to affirm the divinity of christ as in John 1vs 1. because even the Quran affirms that God created the world with his Word (Jesus)

Abdulgaffar22:
Which point are you trying to make from all these? That Qur'an is not word of God? Or it is word of God but later lose its authenticity? You cannot have it both ways because Qur'an is the last book that claimed its author to be God. Therefore, it is either the Qur'an is the final word of God and then must be authentic or it is not word of God. I have given you enough evidence in the main post( including my own personal experience which you may find difficult to believe) to prove that Qur'an must be authored by God. If Qur'an was really authored by God, then being the last revelation, it must be protected from corruption you attributed to it. Qur'an 15:9 says: Verily We, it is We that have sent down the reminder and We shall safeguard it from corruption. Concerning the Qur'an19:64 you made mentioned of: God has already us that the Qur'an was revealed to the prophet through Angel Gabriel (Qur'an 2:97). Therefore, is there anything wrong if the word of angels are found within the Qur'an? If you think very well,you will discover that Islam still remain as the most reasonable world view out of all various world view. The reason is this: if you are atheist or pantheist, then you must explain how personal human being -who possessed the ability to see, the ability to hear, the ability to think, the ability to know and the ability to talk and speak different languages- originate from impersonal nature that completely lacked all these features. If you are Jew or Christian, then you must explain how the so-called liar, that must have been misled by Satan, can guide the idols worshippers in ancient mecca to the idea of believing in one God and all biblical prophets including moses and Jesus Christ. [quote author=Abdulgaffar22 post=53791625]You must also explain why the God of truth and wisdom should allow a great liar to impersonate Him for good 23 years without any single biblical verse pre-informing us that God is going to be impersonated by a great liar.
you mean if Muhammed was a false prophet God wouldn't have watched him deceived the people for 23 years but believe that God sat down and watched the Bible changed from what it was to what we have today even when your Quran clearly said that Allah's word cannot be changed. I smell sentiments in your view.
Thank God you agreed earlier that the Bible was once the word of God so are you trying to call allah a Liar?
Abdulgaffar22:
As you can see Islam is the most reasonable world view that can be adopted without any serious problem. It does not against reason if God allow the previous religious scriptures to suffer corruption so that everyone can now turn to the last and final revelation from God.

abduljabbar4:
exactly
In chapter 6 vs 114-115,

114-"say o Muhammed shall I seek a judge other than Allah while it is he who have sent down unto you the book (Quran), explained in detail. " those whom we gave the SCRIPTURE (the TORAH ) and the INJEEL (GOSPEL ) KNOW THAT IT IS REVEALED FROM YOUR LORD IN TRUTH . So be not you of those who doubt.

Note - the above verse confirms that the Bible was revealed by Allah. Note that injeel which means the gospel is the new testament of the Bible we have today and the Torah is the old testament of the Bible which your koran has confirmed its authenticity.

Then verse 115 went further to say "and the words of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice. NONE CAN CHANGE HIS WORDS. And he is the all-hearer, the all-knower "
The verse above confirms that Allah's words cannot be changed therefore don't dare to say Allah's word (the Bible) was changed unless you want to attract the wrath of Allah.

From the bolded above the koran clearly testifies that the Bible is the word of Allah therefore if as a Muslim you doubt any word of the Bible then I leave you to be judged by your Allah.

In summary the day the Bible ceases to be true, the same day your koran cease to be anything worth talking about or even read.
This is because your koran confirms the Bible as the word of Allah which can never be changed.
Have a great day ahead.

Politics › See This Open Letter To Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello by respect80(op):
Dear Gov.Yahaya Bello,
I hope you are fine sir, but in case you're not, that is not the target of my letter to you sir. The main idea here is to bring to your notice the fact that your administration so far has equal kogi state to a malnourished child begging for food and yet haunted by the feeling to pass out feces and to as well put forth some questions to you so you can let the public know your stand towards the civil servants of kogi state sir. Firstly I will like to send my sincerest sympathy to the families of those whom you have actually turned their actively working bread winners to real ghost during your marathon screening exercise to fish out ghost workers on the state pay roll. Your excellency sir if I may ask, are you a curse on kogi state? If "NO" is your answer to this question then the next question is, what have kogi state civil servants done to deserve this kind of treatment from you because I'm beginning to think that a new word like "WICKEDNESSNESS" should be added to dictionaries because calling your attitude wickedness is simply an understatement sir. Your excellency sir, it is a fact that kogi state requested for the highest amount of the bail out fund (an approach by the president muhammadu Buhari's administration to cushion the sufferings of workers by paying them their withheld salaries and other benefits which are their fundamental rights as civil servants). However, it was said that the FG released the sum of 20billion naira of the 50 billion naira requested by the state making kogi state number one when ranked on the basis of amount received by the 23 states which requested for the fund. Your excellency sir, the unending cries of civil servants in kogi state which can be likened to the cry of an infant who is unable to feel the presence of it mother after waking up at midnight clearly portrays some foul play in the disbursement of the 20 billion naira which you confirmed to have received from the FG yet. Your excellency sir, while I was traveling together with some indigenous workers from your state in a commercial vehicle about a month ago sir the comments and prayers which this workers were raining on you and the entirety of your generation were quite discouraging sir. One of the comments goes thus sir "may the life of our governor and that of his children be treated the same way he has treated us so far". Sir, I think it's time you change for good sir, as it is not right for this many living souls to continue to meddle your name in their mouth like a soil scientist trying to determine the textural class of a soil sample by field method (squeezed in the hand or between thumbs) or to see your existence as a source of impediment to their success and breakthrough not to talk of the aggrieved souls of those whom you have fixed meeting venues for them and untimely death through your extraneous screening process. Your excellency sir, I heard that the screening process also includes pensioners sir. Sir, pensioners are not dead woods like politicians (polithiefcians) normally call them sir, they are humans with red blood running through their veins like yours sir. Let me use this opportunity to crave your indulgence to the unpaid gratuity of retired officers in the state and local government sir, I will like to bring to the know of your excellent sir, that many of this class of persons are highly dependent on their gratuity to fulfill their purpose in life as the responsibilities of training their children have deprived them the former during their active years in service. I will like your excellency sir to know that the people of kogi state are no longer asking or expecting infrastructural development from your administration sir, but for you to ease their pains at least by paying salaries of workers sir.
Mr governor sir, I will like to ask if you are competing for the title of the most wicked governor in Nigeria and if yes, I will like to tell you that this title will do you no good in this life or in the hereafter sir.
Your excellency sir, I can see that kogi state University and kogi state polytechnic are on strike sir. Sir, permit me to write out one of my favorite verse in the Bible for you to read sir. It goes thus sir "the fool hath said in his heart there is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good". Sir, although you are not a Christian sir but the Bible passage above was from the book of psalm 14 vs 1 sir. Mr governor sir, even if you have been blindfolded by money, I don't want to believe that you are ignorant of the first karmic law also known as "the great law ". It states thus sir, " as you sow, so shall you reap". This law is further known as the law of cause and effect sir. Your excellency sir, education is one of the fundamental rights of a person as far as our country is concerned today sir. Sir, your actions and inaction are becoming lethargic to the educational careers of thousands in kogi state sir. Mr governor sir, the students in kogi state University and other institutions on strike would have preferred better educational careers in foreign countries like you prefer for your children sir. Sir, it will be nice if you discontinue to deprive them the little access they have got to education sir.
It is in my know sir that the emir of kano mallam Muhammadu Sanusi II was one of the guests at the award of the most security conscious governor which you received recently sir. Accept my hearty congratulations sir. However sir, the social media was seriously bleeding following the swift change in your mood when you were blasted by the brave emir sir. Some even said that the fire which razed down Sodom and Gomorrah back then was much cooler than your temper at that point in time sir.
Your excellency sir, if it was so difficult for you to endure a simple truth, then think of how difficult and unbearable it has been for the civil servants whom you have fed with hunger for many months sir. There is a saying that one good turn deserves another but in your case sir I am sure you don't need a seer to tell you there wouldn't be another turn for you sir. Even though you are not expecting another turn it will be nice in the face of God and man if you temper justice with mercy sir. I call what you are doing justice because we the kogites deserve what we are facing sir. However, I want to plead on our behalf sir that you should forgive us our sin for watching you inherit our governorship seat sir.
Although kogi state has lost it's articulate voices which spoke against retrograde and cataclysmic forces which have apclized and pdplized our democracy neither do they possess hopeless not to talk of hope as far as your administration is concerned. However, there is something kogites are yet to lose and that is the Devine intervention of God concerning their situation which might not be too good for you to bear sir take note of the word Devine sir. Without making you read more than you have read, I will like to advise you sir to put a smile on the faces of kogi state workers sir, as a single smile can hide a thousand tears sir. I will have to drop my pen at this point sir.

Yours faithfully.
From A. E. E. an aggrieved ex-student of Kogi state University.

Politics › Kogi State Workers Are Going Through Pains by respect80(op): 6:44pm On Feb 16, 2017
The National Cordinator PDP Youth Frontier Mr.Usman Okai Austin in this interview confessed that workers in the state are going through pains over unpaid salaries. How many months’ salaries does the Kogi State Government owe workers? There is so much controversy about that. The truth is that some workers have not been paid for over one year, eleven months and some six months. However, some of the workers employed since 2015 have been told categorically that they are not part of the state workforce and were replaced with some unknown names. What about workers in the local government councils? The issue of the local government is a glaring one. You are aware of the facts that some got alert without cash in their bank account, the local government workers are not treated differently from the state workers, in this era of new direction the state government is directly operating the local government account instead of operating it as a joint account, the state has hijacked it and as you know, those in charge of the local government could be said to stooges of the governor. The governor of the state has somewhat destroyed the entire local government system from the day he placed the Treasurers, Cashiers and Directors on indefinite suspension without reasons given. How many months salaries are local government workers owed? It varies from one local government to the other. Some are up to one year; some are eight months, even those paid were giving some percentages, not full salaries. What reasons did the government give for not meeting its financial obligations to workers? The controversy there is that government is saying they will verify before they will pay but the verification is becoming forever and unending. Gov. Bello has done thirteen months in office and using twelve months for screening, even those initially cleared by the screening are no longer receiving salaries and this is after collecting the bailout fund, the parish club excess payment refund and over a year of collecting monthly allocation from the federal government. The truth is that we have economic problems in this country and we all know that. But no President in Nigeria since year 2000 has ever released fund to the state government like this government of President Muhammed Buhari. There is no justification for starving the state workers. Why is Kogi State situation peculiar? Kogi is peculiar because we have a governor who is not listening to the experiences of those that were there before him even after forming a government with everybody in his cabinet inexperience, the bureaucrat, the expertise in administration, the Directors, the Permanent secretaries who understand the working of the civil servants/service were all placed on indefinite suspension leaving the state machineries in the hands of neophyte and today they have muddled the whole things and kogi state is stranded. In Kogi state, everything is strange. We have never has this so bad. Some Kogite’s have claimed that non-payment of salaries started during the last governorship election in Kogi and that the allocation to the state was allegedly used for electioneering, is this correct? I cannot align with that position though I don’t speak for the previous government but everybody knows the finacial position of 36 states before the Buhari led administration approved bailout fund which kogi state was lucky to get approval of N50 billion which is the highest and that is because the state is least indebted state courtesy of Governor Idris Wada government and finacial discipline, not borrowing here and there, the previous government did everything to have the bailout fund released but fortunately the fund laboured for by the previous government was now released to Yahaya Bello and the aim is being defeated and the rest is story . We are demanding for accountability under this very government. Alhaji Ibrahim Idris (Ibro) or Capt Wada or late Abubakar Audu never collect bailout fund or parish club refund etc. Bello received all those funds hence it should be accounted for. It was learnt that workers were planning to go on strike. Are you aware of that ?. You can’t go on strike without NLC,TUC,NUT and others together, today the above bodies in the state has been hijacked or compromised by the Governor I wonder which workers are planning to go on strike. A strike is a decision of the congress and the congress has never agreed to go on strike I doubt if they are even holding meeting from my explanation above you can see the reason for that. For now it seems they are sleeping I am not aware of any strike. You know the last time the strike was declared the organized labour came under threat, blackmailed and all manner of harassment, currently the state organised labour is in a sorry state . Some workers were allegedly victimised because of their tribes and that Governor Bello is trying to reduced the workforce of some particular tribe in the state, what’s your take on this ? I do not think anybody is victimised for now. I am sure of that, the complaint of non payment cuts across the zones in fact what happened in College if Education, Kabba is inhuman, all the staff recruited in 2015 for the accreditation purposes were laid off by Bello, in a Kogi Central we have too many workers accused of being ghost workers even after serving for over twenty or ten years etc. Due to unpaid salaries, some workers have resorted to begging for survival and the wave of crimes has reportedly increased. How is the opposition responding? It is quite an unfortunate situation. We are all going through pains. The experience is not a pleasant one. People are suffering. Yes, we are aware and that is why, we are complaining, there is little the opposition can do on this matter. We are also trying to make sure that the government is transparent. We are using every recorgnise means to register our complain, the opposition can only stand by the workers. People are suffering and we sympathise with them over the situation. We are not relenting in the struggle; we are quite there. Though personally I believe that labour leaders have been compromised. You can see that today no tertiary institution is working in the state because the Academic staff, and the non academic staff has to do the needful. It is being insinuated that Yahaya Bello is anti workers; that he is insensitive to their plight. Do you share that sentiment? I will agree with that totally.
