Foreign AffairsRe: Saddam Hussein Is Dead by Reverend(m): 4:04pm On Jan 03, 2007
One point where your story falls down is 'Milking Countries Dry'

Both the US and the UK have invested far much more in Iraq than they could ever possibly hope to gain!

As for raping Nigeria of it's wealth, I think certain Nigerians already do that very well themselves and need no help from the West. Nigeria maybe rich in oil, but the infrastructure is so bad and dilapidated that the income remains locked away underground undecided

Not much to milk even if they wanted and in the meantime we invest billions of our tax Dollars and Pounds in aid lipsrsealed
Foreign AffairsRe: Saddam Hussein Is Dead by Reverend(m): 3:26pm On Jan 03, 2007
I still don't think that the US and UK want instability in Nigeria. Both countries invest vast amounts of money in aid each and every year and I think the relationship with the UK is a good one!

It is a pretty good rule of thumb that where you find Muslim extremism, Islamist terrorism, and women being sentenced to death by stoning, there you will find Saudi funds and Saudi-trained personnel.

Non-Muslims, usually Christians, have become second-class citizens. Their taxes pay for Islamic preachers, while hundreds of churches have been closed by government order.

This spread of radical Islam has also led to riots, mob attacks, and vigilantes, producing the largest death toll in Nigeria since the civil war over Biafra in the 1960s. Over 10,000 people have died in the last four years in sharia-related violence — perhaps over 1,000 in the central states this year alone.

This is not supported morally or financially by the UK or the US, Look towards the East undecided

The reality is that you can not teach heathens democratic values. I have come to the conclusion that everywhere on this planet where Islam is the predominate religion, the citizens can only be controlled by ruthless dictators.

When the threat of immediate death for any anti government rhetoric or action is carried out without mercy and the people are repressed, there seems to be order. As soon as people are given the choice to rule and decide on the future of their own Country they always decide to start a murderous spree of death defying proportions!

More people have died as a result of Iraq being liberated, more than Saddam Hussein could have ever killed and how many more victims will die in the coming weeks?

The Verdict:

Muslims living in Islamic states do not understand the concept of democracy. Law and order can only be kept when those people are controlled by murderous dictators using ruthless and cruel actions undecided

Maybe many will be killed as a result, but far fewer than if we interfere lipsrsealed

Yes, that is the key,

As long as other people commit crimes against humanity and murder people in cold blood then it is OK undecided

Saddam should have been spared because other people are also doing these things huh

100% BULLSHIT

Saddam got what he deserved fair and square. As for God forgiving him. If there really was a God then he would not have let these terrible things have happened to all those innocent people lipsrsealed

I have not lost the plot as unlike you I am not following the plot!

The plot as in the sense:

1. a secret plan or scheme to accomplish some purpose, esp. a hostile, unlawful, or evil purpose

I have no fear of death as it is an absolutely natural process and is inevitable. As I have accepted the inevitability of death, I do not need a religious placebo to trick myself into believing that after my death I will live with an invisible man above the clouds and dress in white robes and drink tea all day tongue

As for cannabis Jesus, The difference between cannabis and Jesus is that cannabis actually exists. Probably if you take enough cannabis Jesus will also appear before you. He has had enough chances to appear in the last two-thousand years, maybe cannabis is the only way you are going to make him appear tongue

I think a Jesus stoned out on cannabis and imagining that he can do all kinds of supernatural magic is a far more believable story than the one the Bible portrays. If the apostles were also stoned it would then explain much of what happened,

Naked Images: Why would there be naked white people on the website of an African Mission? If you want my naked picture or a few images of naked white people (which I am sure is the real reason you wrote those things) then I will send them to your email address wink

Lets get back to the topic which is:

Is Jesus God?

The answer is simple. How can Jesus be God when God does not exist? How can God be Jesus when Jesus does not exist?

For those of you that believe then peace and happiness to you. Just keep it to yourself or:

Keep your Jesus off my penis
Keep your bible off my balls
Keep your prayers out of my ears
And your crosses off my walls
You can keep the virgin mother
And the resurrection too
Keep your Jesus off my penis
I'll keep my penis off of you

Afam:
1. The US is heavily involved from start to finish so it is not out of place for anyone to involve the US while discussing the death of Saddam.
I agree that they are of course involved. But the point was that many people on this forum use any excuse to take a shot at the US for all kinds of twisted reasons!

Afam:
I actually wanted to know what the Reverend connotes as a username used by you so one can understand how to treat your comments.
We should never look too much into names wink I am a Reverend of Humanity smiley

Afam:
Saddam had a trial even though many agree the trial was not a fair one. But again he was sentenced to death for siging the death warrants of people that were actually tried in the law courts. Infact, one of the 3 that were sentenced to death was the judge that headed the trial that found the over 140 people guitly and subsequent death sentence.
Put differently, Saddam was killed for the same crime that Bush carries out against his people (since signing death warrants for people already convicted and sentenced to death by law courts amounts to crimes).
Everybody is aware of his crimes. People face the death penalty for a single murder. I think it is fair to assume that Saddam got what was coming to him. He was executed for the sum of his crimes.

Afam:
Celebrating the death of anyone is not something anyone should be proud of doing.
I agree

@ Shahan

Talking about rationalities, what is the rationality of arguing whether Jesus is God or that God is Jesus or a space alien even?

What is the rationality of worshiping an invisible man that is supposed to love us but has no problem with burning people in hell for eternity if we upset him?

What is your problem with the naked human body? Why is it that you look down on everything and everybody that does not follow your doctrines? What makes your pretend God better than any other pretend God?

Faith = Terror

We use it as a way to deal with the terrifying prospect of death and the reality that when you die that is it. There is nothing else , physically or spiritually,

Faith is a drug used to fend off reality!
Foreign AffairsRe: Saddam Hussein Sentenced To Death By Hanging by Reverend(m): 2:33pm On Jan 02, 2007
As Mariory stated earlier, people are using his death to take a pop at the US!

In reference to the Christianity nonsense. It just does not fly with me or make any sense whatsoever.

Just like the ever merciful Allah, it is utter bullshit. Try telling that to Iranian women when they are hanged or your local preacher when he tell you that God loves you, but if you sin you will burn in hell for eternity.

DO WHAT I SAY OR YOU WILL SUFFER! Nice message, undecided

Saddam is dead and the World has to be a better place because of it. If you are a Bible maniac you will be well aware of the saying 'those of you who live by the sword will die by the sword' , At least that seems to be true in this case anyway!

As for his trial. At least he had one, most of Saddam's victims were killed without any chance to speak or defend themselves,
Foreign AffairsRe: Saddam Hussein Sentenced To Death By Hanging by Reverend(m): 12:48pm On Jan 02, 2007
Many people are executed around the World each day for far less serious crimes than Saddam had committed. What ever way you want to look at it he was a murderer. He used Iraq as his private playground and abused and killed in cold blood his own people.

Many of you in this thread have expressed sadness at his death. I find that very strange but not suprising.

Many of you are affected directly or indirectly by the activities of the 419 scammers and the negative effect it has on Nigeria, but many of you are the first to defend their actions and probably quite a few of you have at one time been involved. You support the very thing that is destroying your community and future from within.

It is very sad that certain people who have contributed to this thread choose Saddam Hussein to be some kind of hero figure! He was just a criminal and a murderous despot. Nothing more, nothing less!

If this mentality persists, then there can be little hope for a free and prosperous Nigeria in the future undecided

@Shahan

Faith is believing what you want to believe, yet cannot prove."

Many people, including many Christians, live with this definition of faith. For some it feels liberating. It means being able to believe in anything you want to. No explanation is required; indeed, no explanation can be given--it is just a matter of faith. For others, such a definition is sickening. Embracing faith means you stop thinking. As faith increases, reason and meaning eventually disappear. No explanations can be given, and none can be expected. Thus, living in faith is living in the dark.

The promise of rewards for the faithful falls away when confronted by the religiously-neutral injustice of the world.

Believers invent an afterlife system of justice (Heaven and Hell) to compensate and maintain their belief in a God who provides for their emotional needs. However, the idea of an omnipotent, omnibenevolent, omniscient God is logically incompatible with the existence of Hell. Believers therefore resort to the doctrine of divinely created free will among humans and angels. However, true free will is logically incompatible with the omniscience of God, and therefore the omnipotence, omniscience, or omnibenevolence of God is logically destroyed.

Believers, in response, flee from rationality and abandon themselves to a way of life commanded by emotion: that way of life is faith.
