joe_ekuns: Actually i disagree with you....God knows and allows it to happen does not mean it's his will, because in the holy book he told us that his thoughts towards us are of good (in the case of job). So if God wanted to kill one man and his children are there he would devise another means.I don't think God has anything to do with this or any other air disasters. Mankind's decision to build planes and fly in the air is a manifestation of eating the forbidden fruit of the "knowledge of good and evil"and we are on our own any time we choose to fly. |
manny4life: I actually have my license to fly...Great! Thanks for telling us about some aspects of takeoff |
ndu_chucks: I think we all agree that not engaging the flap in of itself is not enough to cause a crash, all other things being equal. We are told that the crew decided not to use the flap during takeoff. It seems to me as if the real cause of the crash is the following as noted in the AIB report:Thanks Chucks sand nanny4life. As usual airworthiness is the most common cause of air disasters in Nigeria more than pilot errors. So who should checked for these errors before takeoff? Pilots, mechanics and engineers or management? |
wasak: so because GOD has blessed him with children He's begging for money?What an unempathetic fellow! May your wife deliver quadruplets |
He is a driver on a salary of 30,000N per month in Lagos . They already have three young sons and his vwife delivered quadruplets who are underweight and in neonatology unit in LUTH, Lagos. He is begging for N1milion to offset bills and support family. What a life, while many women are childless and looking for a baby in church, infelity clinics and babalawos, others are filled with the blessings of the womb!

Nosgidi: Lol.Make she come try am for Naija,na die she dey dat day.If she be use Jazz tie the guy eye,e go fade immediately..If the babe na black belt karate babe nko? |
Na wahala dey for the girl so! Maybe 1-2 years in prison. |
donphilopus: I'd say only God knows what really made him to write that, or he just decided to say that who knows..Absolutely! I think what he meant was he was the type who considers decisions, actions well before taking them, and he takes life morals seriously as if it were the last day of his life. He did not know he was going to die that day at all. If he were still alive er would have understand it from its true perspective, but now deceased we tend to read weird meaning into it. Remember he has had this attitude of "...if this was the last day of my life" for 33years. |
DonCrust: what nonsense are you talking about or do you want God to punish you with spoke of the tongue? If you notice anything in that's not right in the church, are you too dumb to know that the mail/information box that is in your church premises is meant for members to get in touch with the pastors if you're afraid of meeting them in person? By the way, who is not focussed between you and those you were looking at? It is your type that makes the unbelievers to say trash about the body of Christ. May God punish that your dirty mouth, cause all your teeth to fall off and fold your fingers for pointing accusing fingers at the body of Christ.You devil man! How can u be so vindictive because someone expressed their opinions. Thanks be to the Father who is so gracious and has given us the power of free will. Those blaming OP for writing in church, look at the time she posted the article. Church may just be settling down to begin. Ms steph's observation is a reflection of the failure of our churches. The pastors ought to be able encourage behaviours change: people lose focus apparently because the pastor has nothing good enough to offer. |
dominique: I don't like this one bit. They're not improving their services, all they know is to add more crap channels to justify increase on charges. How many of these channels can one even watch in a day sef? (that's if you're jobless, not to add phcn factor too). I hope someone break their monopoly.Just switch to CTL. you pay 3500naira per month and you enjoy alln the DSTV channels on the 11000N package |
ITbomb: Yea we are very ugly, but we still need to choose where to spend our hard-earned money.Psychology indicate men are more visual in assessing women while women focus more on the voice and boldness of the man. They look for men who can protect and provide for their offsprings,. But since men and women have varying concepts of these notions, singles of both sexes need not worry as chances of been hooked are high for everyone. |
EXPONENT: rubbish!Absolutely right! No proof of what they are saying. The only thing that survives you is a copy of some of your genes in your children or children of your relatives. Where does the dead mango tree in your compound go? People who talk about life after death just make up the stories to cope with the loss of family members or loved ones, or the fear of dying |
roland20: Hmm... 9ja with their pathetic eye service mentalities, |
Beaf!:I think you need this pen. You spelt spelling wrong!! Laugh out loud |
homesteady: I still have my doubt about this pen!Buy it, give it a try and tell us on Nairaland. |
authority2006: Happy birthday to Nigeria, Happy birthday to my wife.Today is not the birthday of Nigeria. Nigeria was born 99 years ago midwifed by Lord Lugard Happy Independence Day o!! |
I wish all Nairalanders happy independence day. Remember to pray for peace, progress and unity for Nigeria today. Remember as the new Nigeria year begins to contribute your own quota to help this country develop God bless Nigeria. 53 gbosas to Nigeria!! |
Chibuebem: sorry sir, he lied. He said: "thou shalt not surely die"Adam did not die on the day he ate the fruit. He lived to 930years of age. In genesis 2:17 God said "....on the day you eat of it you would surely die" A mere threat to deter them from eating/acquiring knowledge, just like you would threaten a child. god knew that that knowledge would make them like Gods. The snake (wisdom) revealed the secret to Eve knowing she is more receptive as the mother of the living. God also knew the knowledge would help adam and eve find the tree of life. So he hid the tree and placed angels to guard it. It is this knowledge that has brought about civilization, scientific invention, democracy and justice to mankind as well as divine love and understanding over the centuries. No where in genesis is it stated that man was created originally to live forever before adam ate the fruit . He was made mortal, from the dust of the earth, and such subject to death like every animal. The tree of life would have been a poisonous reward considering it would have been given to Adam in exchange for obsequiousness, stupidity and mental retardation, ie a naked ape for ever |
Chibuebem: @ bolded, your argument is flawed.The snake did not lie! Even God said behold man has become like one of us , knowing good and evil. Is that not what the snake said would happen if they eat the fruit. The snake only took the wind off God's game ship. Would you prefer to remain mentally retarded, naked ape for ever if you had the choice to obtain knowledge, develop a conscience and free will. According to story when read with an open mind, God wanted man to remain a retard but Adam and Eve said no, and got punished. You judge the character of the Old Testament Jewish God for yourself. |
mazaje: Bla bla bla. . .even the Jews that invented the story do not agree with the christian interpretation and explanation. . .The christian explanation doesn't make any sense at all. . .it depicts god as an incompetent parent. . .That's right! It also depicts him as dictatorial, prone to anger, unforgiving and punitive. It appeared that the inventors of the genesis story were of the view that a permanent child state was the original status God meant for mankind without considering the negative aspects of this condition - ignorance, lacking conscience and free will, which fits a megalomaniac God' s purposes. |
Image123: And you are aware they would have had life if they had eaten the tree of life, right? Do you know that Bible God considers you as dead if you are not His child? Are you dead?YHWH had anterior motives when he planned that man should not have knowledge of good and evil. He did not want adam and his descendants to acquire knowledge to be able to exhibit free choice whether to serve him. It's like a parent who deprives his children of education because he fears they would become graduates like him. He justifies it by claiming having knowledge is hard and difficult. Would you prefer to be a grown up child of just 3 Years mental old who can talk walk but unaware of his being unclad and ignorant of right and wrong? Adam made the right choice. In the genesis story there was no indication that Adam was originally made an eternal being , and they did not die soon after eating the fruit,. So the snake was right. Furthermore genesis story did not say that the snake was satan. It simply says the snake was the most cunning creature created. The snake is the symbol,of wisdom and medicine. Moses used it to treat the Israelites in the desert. We also notes that YHWH demands absolute worship..I am a jealous God he says. He is prone to anger and is punitive. |
sushieater: The Big Bang theory posits that the universe was originally anAbsolutely! This kind of thinking made Marcion to propound the idea that the god of the Old Testament is a subordinate or demiurge who created the material world with its imperfections. He exists as a spirit, loves fire prone to anger and punitive boastful and impudent. He is not omnipresent or omniscient, perfect or almighty. The true God is nameless, oerect limitless, omnipresent, silent and exists outside the universe but has knowledge of everything within and outside it. |
The gnostic Christians who were declared heretics and banned by the Catholic Church, had as early as the first and second centuries had brooded on similar issues and by intuition and comparative study of the new and old testaments of the bible,came up with an innovative explanation of the genesis story.. I will summarize briefly below. Interested readers can read the secret book of John for details available online - YHWH, Jehovah or the LORD is different from the Father revealed by Jesus Christ - YHWH is a subordinate deity who is unaware of the Father, who created the imperfect universe by imitation of the perfect world. He is the son of one of the aeons called Sophia, he was born out of ignorance and desire and ignorant of the holy ones.he is arrogant boastful, loves fire and boasted there is no other god I am a jealous god" - adam was created by YHWH with the aim of providing he and his angels light in the chaotic world they lived and when he and his angels noticed adam has a clearer way of thinking with enlightened insight he was repatriated to the earth, made mortal, with the aim of making him forgetful of the father and live like a naked ignorant ape for ever. - YHWH did not want Adam to acquire knowledge or be like a god, he threatened him with death if he eats of the fruit of knowledge of good and evil. - The snake represents wisdom, revealed the truth to Adam and Eve and encouraged them to eat the fruit. They gained knowledge, realizing they werunclad with fear of YHWH. - YHWH even said " behold man has become like one of us knowing good and evil, least he find the tree if life to live for ever" he threw them out of paradise and clothed them with forgetfulness of the father. They would have to work for their food, introduced the idea of woman being subject to man and in anger punished the future generations of Adam and Eve. -Christ mission was to redeem us from the clutches of jealousy of YHWH and lead us the true God the father who is perfect, incorruptible and omniscience, and all forgiving. So an answer to the OP question is that God's imperfections led to creation of an imperfect universe and that Adam and their offsprings were victims of YHWH's megalomania and ignorance. |
HNosegbe: Aha... Naptu to the rescue, yet again.This time the credit goes to nagoma, not naptu. Naptu only plagiarized nagoma's answer and that of some members of the house. Please read nagoma's post above. |
Akshow: we have never been animal lover so i guess they won't be missed if they finally go into extinct. for the few that love animal, they can take a trip to east africa to see demYeah... But we do have deep respect for these animals traditionally. They feature in our folklore, stories and names. There is an urgent need for govt to work with zoology depts in Univs to set up reserves aimed at protecting and boosting lion recuperation. If farmers are being disturbed by lions they could be tranquilizer and relocated to these reserves. |
Mind you the report says moderate amounts of alcohol say about 1-2 cans of light beer eg Heineken, per day. Most of the harmful effects of alcohol is due to excessive amounts - abuse- of alcohol. Just like excess food can be harmful. |
roaringlamb01: Smh... Why r u doing this? *d funny thing is my heart is drawn to you*If he inspired people to write things that repress women, then YHWH is not the true God that christ preached. He is definitely arrogant, vengeful and prejudiced. That's why Christ came to reveal the Heavenly Father who is incorruptible, perfect, eternal, full of grace and love. |
As clearly indicated by Yomidee(see post-bove) the bible's view of women 's status reflects that of the jews which to say the least is archaic and has no place in true Christianity whose core teaching is that of a heavenly father of love who created all humankind equal and equally supports good and bad people and appeals to our conscience and free will and reasoning to know our true source - ie from the Father and Christ the child of humankind came to show the way to the father. Christ said he who wants wants to be first should be last. My view is that men and women are mates that complement each other having their own uniques strength and weaknesses. Each has an equal level of divinity in them. Any religion that preaches man's superiority over woman is not of Christ and the Father but of arrogant cavemen. |
mazizi tonene: So......Would you rather be a gorilla in the bush? |
ifeness: Any woman that want to be free from slavery should boycott every form of religion. It is a choice y'all can make. You wanna be forcefully put under a man? stay there. You wanna live like a human being should,then leave!Absolutely right!! |
POTUT: OP,Beautiful. You made my day!! |
