Religion / Re: Was God The Creator Of Evil? (poverty, Sickness, Natural Disasters, Etc) by scaler345: 10:05pm On Aug 26, 2013
@OP,
many people here have pointed out some salient points outta bible showing that xtian God is evil, but you kept quoting versed that said he's good.

What about those places he affirmed that he's evil?
What about those evils he committed?
What about killings of innocent people - women, girls, babies (even babies that are not yet weaned) etc

I don't want to make this too long, I'll just list few evils among many in the bible

Gen 3:16
God now commands that all women must have health hazardous labors for Eve ate the fruit.
In no way shape or form is it just that I must pay for the sins of my ancestors.

Gen 4:3-5
God caused sibling rivalry by favoring Abel over Cain, with absolutely no attempt at justification. This act of favoritism led to Abel’s death.

Genesis 7:23
He killed, intentionally, every man, woman, and child on the planet save eight of them. You can't tell me that billions of people were evil to a degree that will require total annihilation.

Genesis 19:23-25
God burns down a whole city (women and children included) simply because they were supposedly homosexual. Can a whole city be evil?

Gen 38:7
Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord; and that the Lord slew him. How was Er wicked? The Bible doesn’t give us this bit of information, only that Er was wicked in the sight of the Lord.

Genesis 38:10
God murders Onan for refusing to commit incest with his sister in law. This is funny and horrible!
A father forced his son (Onan) to have sex with his brother's wife (God didn't see anything wrong with that), but Onan realized that it won't be good to have a child by his own brother's wife so he tried withdrawal method, what did God did? He slew him - GREAT!!!

Exodus 12:29
God repeatedly tells Moses exactly what calamity he will next visit upon the Egyptians if the Pharaoh does not allow the Israelites to be set free from slavery. Then he tells Moses (also repeatedly) that he will harden Pharaoh’s heart, so that he will refuse to allow the Israelites to go, thus bringing a calamity upon his own people, as well as showing him the awesome power of the Israelites’ Lord. This occurs over and over, bringing calamity upon calamity upon the Egyptian people.
What is troubling about this verse is that when god “hardens the pharaoh’s heart” he is interfering with the Pharaoh’s free will and ultimately bringing punishment on the Egyptians for something they are not responsible for. As a final punishment god decides to kill all the first born of Egypt. The lord reduced himself to murdering innocent kids when he could have simply freed the Israelites himself with his “omnipotent” power.

Exodus 20:5 & 34:7
God punishes children for the sins of their fathers, unto the third and fourth generations. Punishing a child for the sins of their ancestors is not very just.

Exodus 21:2-6
God endorses slavery. He even set up laws as to how slavery was to be carried out, and goes as far as Okaying beating them.

Exodus 21:7
God sanctioned the selling of ones daughter. How can any being tell another to literally sell their child into slavery? Disgusting!

Exodus 22:18
God orders the death of witches, sorceresses and anyone who practices magic. Sadly enough, this verse was justification for the Inquisition.

Exodus 32:27
God ordered to be killed, 3,000 Israelites for no greater crime than worshipping a golden calf. I don’t know about you but death is a pretty harsh fucking punishment.

Leviticus 20:9-10
God commands death for cursing out ones parents and death for adultery. Gee, with these types of laws the population should be almost nil by now.

Leviticus 20:13
Once again god is a homophobe, or at the very least, a bigot.

Leviticus 21:16-23
Handicapped people must not approach the altar.

Leviticus 26:29
“And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.”
Sometimes I pity those Jews - their whole life was a misery. it was also a pity that such wicked god chose them. F**king unlucky tribe.

Leviticus 27:28-29
God ordered and allowed human sacrifices.

Numbers 16:27
God buries alive Korah and his family - their wives, sons and their little children ... gosh, that was pretty mean!

Numbers 16:35
God killed 250 Levite princes who disagreed with Moses’ leadership. He was so bloodthirsty that he wanted to slay more until he was talked out of it. Later he put a plague upon 14,700 Jews who thought there was something wrong in killing 250 princes.

Numbers 21:1-3
God utterly destroyed the Canaanites at Hormah as a favor to the Jews.

Numbers 21:27-35
God abetted Moses in utterly destroying the Amorites at Heshbon - “…the men, the women, and the little ones.”

Numbers 31:17-18
God commands Moses to kill all the Medianite people including children and women. To top it off he commands that the virgins be saved for later raping by Moses’ soldiers.

Deuteronomy 3:3-7
God ordered Moses’ army to “utterly destroy” 60 cities, killing all the women and children within!

Deuteronomy 7:12
God ordered the Israelites to kill all the people of seven nations. He even adds, “show no mercy unto them”.

Deuteronomy 20:16
God orders that we kill everything that breathes in the cities that he gives us for an inheritance

Deuteronomy 23:2
A bastard can’t attend church “even to his tenth generation.” As if denying an innocent child rights to worship isn’t cruel.

All in all, it seems to me that this god derives some high, some adrenaline from all those bloodshed and fear.
Even we as human, I have never seen or heard where a court of law jailed or killed a son/daughter or wife for the sin of a father/husband.

The sad part is that this list is just a tip of an iceblock.

Jokes Etc / Koala & Liz by scaler345: 7:00pm On Aug 24, 2013
A koala was sitting in a tree smoking a joint when a lizard walks up and says "Hey koala what are you doing?"

The koala answers "Smoking a joint, come up and have some."
The lizard climbs up and the two share the joint. After a while the lizard says his mouth is dry and excuses himself to a nearby river to have a drink.

The lizard, so stoned, leans over too far and falls in. A crocodile swims out to rescue him. When they get onto dry land, the croc asks, "What's wrong with you, lizard?"

The lizard tells him that he was smoking a joint with a koala, and he got too stoned and fell in while taking a drink.

The croc has to see this for himself, so he asks the lizard to take him to the koala. When they get back to the tree, the croc looks up at the koala and says "Hey, you."

The koala looks down and says "Shiiiit dude, how much water did you drink?"
Religion / Re: Holy Trinity by scaler345: 1:32pm On Aug 24, 2013
Oops, I got it. God was originally in heaven, he then transported himself to earth, he got himself killed, transported himself back to heaven while promising to send himself back again in few days as a spirit: D.amn! It's getting confusing.

Wait .... who was ruling heaven when God was getting himself killed?

Trinity my black y.ansh! This xtian doctrine is one of the many dat always amazes me. What makes it doubly amazing is people employing hilarious explanations to back their ludicrous claim.

What makes most religious people religious is simple. FEAR. It's not that they love their god(s) so much but because they have been properly threatened wit fire and brimstone. And I don't blame them. Who wanna burn eternally in a lake of fire that's been fueled by phosphorus and sulphur ..... mehn, dat's pretty mean.
Religion / Re: Spaghetti Anyone? Lol by scaler345: 11:30am On Aug 24, 2013
To attract a large number of docile sheep, I'll advice u to totally discourage rational thinking among ur congregation. Don't allow them the use of their brain. U might want to insert one or two verses in ur holy book promising them some unrealistic rewards (after death, of course) and some frightening eternal damnation if anyone of them think,ask questions, search for verification or doubt the monstousity of the FSM.

Politics / Re: How To Register For Your National Identification Number (NIN) And Card by scaler345: 7:57pm On Jul 07, 2013
ilugunboy:

I don't know what some people derive in peddling falsehood...that is a lie. Soon your NIN will be your major form of identity.

Apparently what that person took the bank was just the slip...on which it's clearly written that it doesnt confer the privileges of the real card on the holder. Until you have the real card with chip pin...you can expect the bank to open an account for you with the slip.

Thanks for the clarification.

dabrake: What is the relevance of that slip? It is just useless if you ask me. I was told I could use it anywhere but GTB, access, and FCMB bounced me when I wanted to use it as a means of identification to open a mere Savings account with their banks.

How true is this? If you can't open a mere bank account with it, then what is the use?
SMH!!!
