Religion / Re: The Atheists Costly Error: Assumption That Everything REAL Must Be TANGIBLE by triplechoice(m): 10:33am |
TenQ: You want tangible to mean what you want it to mean so you can fool everyone. You're not serious. You insisted tangible was used metaphorically in the statement, "Her grief is tangible" and I corrected you. Instead of acknowledging your error and just proceed with other things , you want to bring in confusion with this long talk Tangible in that sentence is an adjective describing the quality of her grief. That it's tangible . Because she felt it ( the emotions of grief) intensely, it affected her brain and body. Whether with her hands or body, the truth was that she felt it as tangible. It wasn't a figure of speech. If you can't understand this simple thing,then you will struggle to understand what others have been explaining in English language for you. And you have been struggling as can be seen from the evidence of your responses to others here. You're not responding directly. Meaning you don't fully comprehend what you read. Just use pidgin please . You won't be criticized for using that. Proficiency in English language is not a mark of intelligence. |

I as a lady would be irritated if a guy is wearing a tight clinging short revealing all his gbola shape and all and would think it's disgusting. I now wonder how a man that is moved by sight primarily would feel seeing all these unclothedness. Nigerian men are trying sha it takes a level of self control to control temptation these days. |

Greet ur neighbour and ask about His or her family like we do here. Overthere na issue.he or she will ask why u asking about their family. They like this ''having ur personal space. '' What we Nigerians only talk about hw to blow overthere that an average Nigerian is better than a Nigeria here. As if u no go marry or born overthere what about knowledge about conducting urself over there so that u don't get deported or jail or both The most annoying thing japa pple do is the dollar naira conversion in any thing they purchase.

As if you going to spend naira.overthere How much is their rent 500/1000dollars per month for rent. U go pay bills gas bills, light bills, that why sometimes some of our pple no go fit help u financially ND they complain about paying bills No vex for them Bcoz after paying bills u must send money to loved ones. Bcoz they no go undastand at all esp. The ones from poor homes Nigerians can hype any country outside naija.

Religion / Re: The Christian Creation Story. Why Its An Old Wives Tale by Emusan(m): 8:50am |
jaephoenix: You started the thread with a strawman argument. Even though I've done this more than 10years ago on this forum I'll just try to summarise my point because I don't have time for a lengthy post. 1. Duration time for the creation. This is the first considerable problem. Genesis says that, from the early stages of the earth’s formation to the dawn of man, only six days passed, which is obviously wrong. We know this whole process took about 4 billion years. You don't know stop lying, you believe it's 4Billiion years. Many apologists try to solve this crude mistake by declaring that the word “day” has a more vague meaning, such as six general divisions of time. We don’t know this, however, and the whole context of the story seems closer to 24 hour days (for example, we constantly read “And the evening and the morning were the first day.”). The Creator is a witness to His own creation and He's the one says He did it in just 6 days and model the time for man to used. Even 100Billions years can't produce a design model out of chaos. 2. The order of creation days. The order in which the creation events happened in the bible and the true geological and biological evolution of the earth are completely different. Some examples follow: You can't expect Creation to be the same as what follows after. Creation came with supernatural events. For instance the creation of the first man came as a FULL GROWN HUMAN not as a baby yet the way the Creator program Baby to form and develop is different. a. In Genesis 1:7 it says God divided the waters above and under the firmament. The only logical way to interpret this “firmament” or “heavens”, is the atmosphere, where water in vapour form is stored and eventually falls as rain. If this was done in a subsequent stage of the earth’s formation (day two), we would expect that the amount of water vapour in the atmosphere should increase over time. We however know that the exact opposite happened, as carbon dioxide and water vapour were partly replaced by oxygen. You came up with your own insertion not what Bible says. b. In Genesis 1:11 it suggests that plants were the first form of life to appear, what is obviously wrong. It also suggests that plants and animals appeared in different times, what we know not to be true. Last, if compared to Genesis 1:16–18, it indicates that plants came before the sun, which would be impossible since sunlight is a fundamental ingredient to the process of photosynthesis, which is how plants produce their food. If we should go by six days of creation. Plants can survive weeks or even months without Sun. So, few days between plants and sun isn't an issue here. c. In Genesis 1:16–18, as discussed before, the sun comes only after the plants appeared on the planet, which is obviously absurd. Some apologists try to save this by alleging that the sun already existed but wasn’t visible until the fourth day, since the earth’s atmosphere was thicker. First of all, the atmosphere was already transparent enough to see the sun when the first plants appeared in the planet. Moreover, the organisms from which plants evolved had already “invented” the process of photosynthesis and hence needed a substantial amount of sunlight. Finally, there are several studies who show how a plant’s growth is deeply affected by an increased period of cloudy days, and so it’s absurd to suppose that big trees and others could have appeared in a time of thick atmosphere, where the portion of light entering the planet was so weak that the sun wasn’t even visible. No issue here as stated above. d. Genesis 1:20 and 24 suggests that flying animals came before land animals, which is just wrong due to the fossil and DNA knowledge we have. How many Fossil and DNA do you have from YOUR 4 BILLIONS AGO? which Land Animal first appear and which flying animal first appear? 3. Magical elements. Some apologists argue that the creation myth in Genesis has a special status, since it’s much more “sober” in terms of reality than the creation myths of other religions. First of all, what matters is the truth. To construct a fable with elements closer to reality doesn’t change the fact that it is a fable. Secondly, the fact that the Genesis account seems less mesmerizing than others is just because the israelites followed monotheism (or at least monolatrism), and hence their creation story was devoid of the many struggles between gods that commonly take place at the beginning of other myths. Finally, it’s important to remember that there are many magical elements surrounding the Genesis story: the book of Revelations talks about a war in heaven between a dragon and his hosts and an angel and his hosts; Genesis itself, just a few pages afterwards, talks about talking serpents, magic fruits and a universal flood that occured just because God was in a bad mood with humanity I don't see how this relates to the other part of the thread. Miracle exists with God and the creation itself is miracle. So, do you think God who created human with speech can't make snake or any animal talk? |

Israel has not killed up to 1 per cent of gazans and everyone is shouting genocide. Gaza is the most dense place in the world by population, Hamas hides among civilians under civilians in civilian hospitals and schooles but Israel has keep civilian casualties to a minimum.
