Religion / Re: The Atheists Costly Error: Assumption That Everything REAL Must Be TANGIBLE by triplechoice(m): 10:33am
TenQ:
I think many of you have ignored my use of the definition of Tangible Realities of characterisable by Mass or Dimension (Length, Area or Volume) and Energy instead many were using tangible as
1. A Figure of Speech
2. Noun
3. Adjective (split into two definitions)
a. Describing a reality that is touchable or Handlable
b. Describing a reality that is untouchable but has effect on other objects

Example:
As an adjective, it describes something that is perceptible by touch or capable of being touched; it refers to something concrete, real, or definite. For example, "She wanted tangible evidence to support her claim."

As a noun, "tangible" refers to something that is fixed and visible, usually an object or item that can be perceived by touch. For example, "The company's assets include both tangible and intangible properties." In this context, "tangible" refers to physical assets like buildings, machinery, or inventory.


In our case: Tangible with respect to Software as used is treated as an Adjective
In the sentence "A software is NOT tangible," "tangible" is an adjective modifying the noun "software." It describes the characteristic of software as not being capable of being touched or physically perceived. So, "tangible" is functioning as an adjective here, expressing the quality of physical presence or tangibility.


The example of //Her Grief is tangible:
In the figure of speech "Her grief was tangible," the word "tangible" is used metaphorically to describe the intensity or palpability of the emotion of grief. It suggests that the grief is so profound and real that it feels as though it can be touched or physically sensed, even though emotions are abstract and intangible by nature. In this context, "tangible" is still functioning as an adjective, but it's used figuratively to evoke a vivid sense of the depth and concreteness of the emotion being described.

For the avoidance of doubt and for clarity
An adjective is a part of speech that modifies or describes a noun or pronoun, providing additional information about its qualities or attributes. Adjectives can indicate size, color, shape, age, personality, emotions, and many other characteristics of the noun they modify.


My Definitions :
https://www.nairaland.com/8069157/atheists-costly-error-assumption-everything#129569120
1. Real:
Things that EXIST are REAL : things that do NOT Exist are Imaginary or Virtual!
e.g. Your image in the mirror is virtual!
2. Tangible:
Anything that has either Mass or Dimensions (Length, Area or Volume) or Energy which can interact with time either by change in position or change in state.


Thus: Anything that is tangible can be described in terms of either its mass or Dimensions or Energy?

Photons and Gluons are mass-less objects and they do not even have spatial dimensions but they have measurable Energies: thus they are Tangible objects


The Objective Remain the Same:
Tangible here mean: Any Reality than can be measured in terms of Mass, Dimension, Energy and Time Tangible does NOT mean having Effects (or else Gravity, Electric Field and Magnetic field will be tangible)
1. If an existence is not tangible i.e. cannot be measured in terms of Mass, Dimension, Energy and Time, does it prove it doesn't exist?
2. Is a software within a machine REAL or not?
3. Can the software within a machine be "measured" or "quantified" by any physical means?
4. Is it wisdom to insist on a physical quantification of a software within a machine to conclude that it exist?
5. Tell me, how can one prove the existence of a software WITHIN an AI machine's CPU or MEMORY without the use of another software?




Conclusion:
1. If we insist on using Tangible to mean ANY EXISTENCE that produces EFFECTS on matter, then we must be CONSISTENT with our definition as Gravity, Electric Field, Magnetic Field, Mathematics, Software, Logic, Information, Consciousness, Mathematics will be Tangible. But note that other than these Effects there is NO EVIDENCE for them. Whatever we have is a NOMENCLATURE that describes the cause of the Effects we observe

2. If we use Tangible to mean ANY EXISTENCE or REALITY that can be measured in terms of Mass, Dimension, Energy and Time (whether by touch or machine other than softwares) then we must be CONSISTENT with our definition as Gravity, Electric Field, magnetic Field Software, Logic, Information, Consciousness, Mathematics will NOT be Tangible.

Do we agree to these two basic rules. We have an understanding asd a rule of Engagement

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.

Politics / Re: Popular Social Media Influencer Daniel Regha Shades Peter Obi by CrossRhodes: 10:23am
EponObi:
Lmaooooooo! It's demarketing season, baby ✌️

I remember faulting EponObi for not calling his foul-mouthed Obidients to order. They even went as far as laying curses on INEC, Yakubu, and the Tribunal judges, publicly online but the dolt did as if he's blind and deaf to the insults - person wey dey shout "a new Nigeria is P🤡ssible". The 62 year-old, male-girl child crooner 😭 who claimed to be a youth, white as snow, and the messiah watched (as if he is innocent) while his army marketed his candidacy with lies, insult, curses, intimidation, blackmail, manipulation, propaganda and stealing. It's that fake innocence and his deceptions that I hate about him. And mind you, he wines and dines with those top influenzas that orchestrate the abusive online behaviors of his sheep - but he will want you to think he knows nothing about it.

The propaganda he and his cult thinks they are master of is the same thing APC is using to dismantle his charade. 😭 If you're blind, I will tell you for free - APC is set to demarket him before 2027. Fact 💯.

What Reno did with the $10,000 challenge is just the beginning. They will slow bleed his brand until there's nothing left before 2027. And the coksucker has made their job very easy by falling into Reno's trap when he did that flop male-girl child press conference. 😂

Obi go dey press the neck of Asiwaju's administration in the media with his out of place critisism, but Tinubu has never for once replied him - not even with a single tweet. Na Atiku him dey always reply. Ordinary Reno wey no fit win election in his ward critized him, the man-baby, with voice like that of a drunkard rushed to do press conference. 😭 My father, my father!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

When I tell you Obi is still in Primary 2 in Nigeria politics and Tinubu is an Emeritus, believe! Only a naive, shallow minded, and short sighted politician will fall for such cheap trick. I swear, Dino Melaye is more political savy than that Ekute. 🤣

Since he has confirmed Reno was right, at the disappointment of those slowpoke Obidients who ran to the four corners of the world to find "images of the schools their principal built" 😂 (that press conference must have 'wunjured' them seriously 🤣)... Like a whole Obi - the okwute, the el-shadi, 😂 the abido shaker, bahose, cidaniel, santus sanitoriel, ribado, sepray - didn't build a single school - not even the foundation of a kindergarten school - for 8 years as governor? 😮 Now whatever propaganda APC cooks to destroy Obi through Reno will be automatically believed by the masses to be true. Na why I said Obi is naive.

100 years from now, there's no way Obi will become president because he doesn't have what it takes. Even Yahyah Bello will become president before him. Obi just doesn't have the range - all he has is the support of his rabid Obidients (btw, their number is shrinking by the day) - the mf doesn't even have political gladiators from his region fighting for his ambition. If you think twitter threads (btw, their impact are diminishing by the day too. When talk becomes too much, it becomes cho cho cho) are what will make him president, dey play! If the battle is between Atiku and Obi alone, Atiku will defeat him 103 times in 100 elections. Facts 💯.

Na Obi go price market ooo 😂 Na jeje APC and the Y a r i b a dey before him go poke them. Now they will show him why they are the kings of media propaganda. People wey commot a sitting president of the biggest black nation on earth with propaganda - na dem the dullard wan play games with? Dey play! I'm watching 😂

The next thing I think APC will do is shine light on that $50m family brewery Obi used Anambra money to build. Walahai, the poor will breeethh, but the Agulu champion will not breeeeeeeethhhhhh. 😂
You must be in so much pains with this long episode you think people will read.

Nigeria will be free and you will not see it

if them ask you to choose between USA or Palestine visa now u wont think twice.
this japa pro abroaf thing am having this feeling our pple overhype abroad. Have u notice that no Nigerian abroad really school us about how to conduct ourself abroad.teavmch us about their laws.,Reality overthere on marriage,parenting,being a baby daddy,
And how to handle /overcome it. Teach us on hw to stay on the right path abroad
Things like loneliness ND how to handle it as times go by bcoz I heard OYINBO aren't that socialable like us. Overthere u just can't . 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. For example u bought something for 5 dollars and it sold for 800naira here in Nigeria pple will start doing comparism without considering purchase power


Another is,u see naija babe go tell u she want japa to make hair for abroad that it cost 30dollars that 30k naira that huge money. 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. They did it with malyasia,ghana, until those country cast ND pple now know the truth

WORD OF ADVISE BE CAREFUL ABOUT BEING GULLIBLE TO OUR PPLE HYPING ABOUT OBODOYINBO. DO UR RESEARCH WELL ON THE COUNTRY. DNT BE TOO MONEY CONSCIOUS
TRY KNW THE REALITIES (,THEIR CULTURES, RELATIONSHIPS/MARRIAGE,PARENTING,THEIR LAWS,BEHAVOUR OF THEIR PPLE TOWARDS BLACKS ,NIGERIANS) IN THE COUNTRY U WANT TO JAPA TO. AND BE PRAYERFUL U NEED AM

The APC charlatans are propaganda fueled pseudo progressives who should be called progreThieves.

Babasessy:
In all of these, the family he had was not his flesh and blood. In another spoof of Christ, who were his family anyway? Those who were with him must be counted as his family. So, I combed in the ambience of Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN), and I found none. I went to Ogun, I frisked the crowd under Amosun’s bower, hardly any. Around Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola in Osun, I could not lay a finger. With Governor Kayode Fayemi in Ekiti, where are the forbears of Awo? Yet, I can hear the chants of Awo. Hardly in any of the inaugural speeches or any of their other public intervention would you miss the philtre and filter of Awo from these gentlemen. To parody Novelist Joseph Conrad, they are the sparks from Awo’s sacred fire, the messengers of the might within the man.

Already all of them are pursuing the legacy ideas of Awo: free education, free health services, infrastructural development, urban renewal and economic engineering.

Lagos has posted itself as the John the Baptist. The others are putting up valiant efforts, and the world of course is watching to see how well they will perform. It will call for great work, resourcefulness and cooperation. They are the real Awoists, and Awo was a man of rigour and vigour.

The Awo son that many expected to take after the father was Olusegun, who unfortunately died in a car crash. We shall never know if he could have pulled it off.  But the others have not shown much of the paterfamilias’ brio and depth. In the past decade, under this republic, they have blended with the wrong crowd. Even H.I.D, hobnobbed with Alao-Akala, who brought illiteracy to governance; with Oyinlola who turned the grace of office into a hell-hole of despots; with Daniel who could not arrest his quick fall into megalomania.

I wrote once that this woman whom Awo once described as the jewel of inestimable value has lost value to his cause. If he came back to life, he would have committed the extraordinary act of divorce after death. Even his newspaper, The Tribune, has so stumbled and fallen that it swims in Awo’s vomit.

Groucho Max, one of the funniest satirists in American history, said of a man that he got his looks from his father. Then he quipped, “He was a plastic surgeon.” That means the son is not his real son, or he did not inherit his natural looks. Ideologically, when we talk of Awo’s family, the chief inheritor is Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as the leader of all the others. He was the one who stuck his neck out. He could have lost his life or ended his career in politics. The so-called real Awolowos who bear his surname cannot come up for mention. They are Awolowos but not Awoists. They stabbed their father in the back. They have committed ideological parricide.

Politics / Re: Yaya Bello: EFCC Ask Abuja School To Refund $845,000(pic) by christejames(m): 9:20am
SoNature:


This is wrong; you cannot shut the school down. EFCC should go and deal with Bello who paid tuition fees in advance. If your father decides to pay your tuition fees from year 1 to final year in the university, why would you call that aiding and abetting crimes? So, it's not the school's fault that Bello used public funds to pay for education services.

In countries like the US and UK, EFCC may not even receive the full amount. The school will deduct tuition fees for services rendered so far and taxes on the sum received. Afterwards, they refund the balance. That's why some UK schools don't refund tuition fees in full if their embassy rejects your visa application.



Wrong as in how?


Why does the law talk about and also charge accomplice? undecided

Due to the historical squalor in Kogi State and the ostentatious lifestyles of Kogi politicians, I shared the following pain here on Nairaland about 5 years ago:



The issue is that Yahaya Bello was one of the youngest governors during his time. There was also Ahmed Salihijo, former head of the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) fired along with his board for alleged corruption. Then there was Halima Shehu, former head of NSIPA who claimed to have transferred 44 billion naira agency funds to private accounts. Then there was Betta Edu who couldn't wait to win the Nobel Prize in early stage stealing.

Why do these young ones believe their call to public service is a call to be stinking corrupt?

To Yahaya Adoza Bello, HABA! This is too much. For aspiring criminals, NEVER, EVER, EVER, use public funds to pay your children's school fees, buy them properties or cars or marry them wives. Don't spend bribe money on your family members. Do not use your own hands to curse your innocent children. You can let the curse remain with you.

We have seen cases of children of politicians dying in accidents in supercars purchased for them by their parents. We have seen the child of a politician jumping to his death from the penthouse his father bought for him. We have also seen children fighting over properties when their fathers pass away.

Please steal and use your loot for yourself ALONE. If you love your family, you'd keep your crimes and proceeds far from them. Criminality destroys families.

Peter Obi was never convicted of drugs traffic in the USA

Peter Obi has never forged his certificates

Peter Obi has never assassinated any son or daughter of Anambra because of his political ambition

Peter Obi has never ordered the security agencies to mass-killed 10,000 peaceful Nigerian protesters at a tollgate during the 'end sars protest' in 2020

Peter Obi has never been and he is not a desperado because he is not greedy

Peter Obi can never run a presidential election on solely a Christian Christian tickets because he believes in the co existence of Christians and Muslims faithfuls in Nigeria

Peter Obi did not participate in neither he was accused of any election rigging during the 2023 general election because he believes in democracy to the core

Peter Obi never ordered his successor to intimidate or threaten the non-Igbos residing in Anambra State to vote for a certain political party

Peter Obi has never made himself a godfather of a certain state in Nigeria, instead he defected from APGA in order for APGA to fend for herself in any election

We all know where Peter Obi comes/ hails from

I then became curious, because I know this route very well. With anger, I asked the driver and the people loading the vehicle, how they will go through Ilorin to Lagos and vice versa. They didn't answer me, I continue yelling at them, then they called me to one corner. I then explain the route to them, another elderly man in the vehicle also explained to them.

They gave us our money but deducted 5,000 each from both of us and told us to leave without letting others know. I was about to go and tell a woman who carried about 6 months baby to find her way but they restrained me from going to talk to her.

I made a thread about it here, in case ya'll wanna check it out and debate on the points there. Unfortunately for Christians, the gaffess were so many, and they could not come up with any defenses.
But in this thread, I'm gonna concentrate on the creation story, cos a Christian challenged me to(Just like another christian challenged me to open a thread about the bible errors and in the end he never gave any defenses). The errors are so much that I have to take them in parts. So this is only Part 1

What are the factual errors in the Genesis creation account?
There are several errors, since it’s a creation myth based on the knowledge, superstitions and misconceptions of the people who wrote it, just like any other creation myth. Let’s consider just some of them:

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?

AS OF TODAY, NIGERIA PRACTICES MORE FREEDOM OF SPEECH THAN USA !

THE LAND OF THE FREE THE HOME OF THE BRAVE.

ONLY IF WE AGREE WITH WHAT YOU SAY.

IF NOT.

YOU HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH BUT NOT FREEDOM AFTER SPEECH.

IT BECOMES THE LAND OF SLAVERY AND FORCED OPINION SUPPRESSION.

HOW DARE YOU PROTEST WITH 50,000 PEOPLE KILLED INCLUDING WOMEN AND BABIES IN A GENOCIDAL FASHION.

The death have not gotten to 40k talk less of 50k. 500k died in the war in Syria, almost a million dead in Sudan, the US killed almost 700k people in Mosul Iraq,

Nobody called it genocide. 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.


Know the difference between casualties of war and genocide.

Apparently, it seems your thread is to paint Igbos bad. This APC sponsored propaganda against Igbos instead of working on the economy and security is very pathetic.
