Workch:He won't, He is afraid, haven't u noticed that since the beginning of this post, I have been begging him for evidence of Adam and Eve and the story of someone living up to 900 years old, but He is dodging it like the slimy snake in his Adam and Eve fairytale |
Ammishaddai:See this stark hypocrite ![]() Present your evidence for a human being living up to 900 year old, sir. |
Ammishaddai:That's the typical strategy you always use when you're cornered . The last time you defended the Adam and Eve story , I challenged you to provide the burden of proof ,yet you dodged by this very same escape mechanism. But no wahala sha . I go still jam you for another illogical reply in the future ![]() |
Ammishaddai:Atheism is literally the lack of faith. Bruh. Oya defend the story of a human being turning to salt. Defend the stories in the Bible that claimed that animals talked and why animals don't talk anymore. ![]() |
Ammishaddai:Nigga your book claims that a human being turned into salt and that someone lived up to 900 years. Nigga your book claims that fire fell from the sky and food did too. Nigga your book claims that the day/night cycle once stood still. Nigga the burden of proof is on you.. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. If I told you that dragons existed, and you told me to prove it and then I asked you to disprove it, does that make sense? That.is why we have about 4600 religions in the world, but yes nigga, the religion you happened to be burn in, happens to be the right one and all other people born into other religions are doomed to hell. Please don't reply if you do not have any sensible thing to say. |
MaxInDHouse:Have a nice day. Don't bother replying, I won't read it anyway. |
For those of you reading this thread, I want to keep this quote in mind. IIt's hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it's damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.” – Bill Murray Have a nice day. |
Ammishaddai:Just forget it, nice chatting with you. Have a nice day ahead. |
MaxInDHouse:Uncle have a nice day. |
Workch:That is the thing. He keep pandering about. Accusing science of making assumptions. Oya you wey your religion never makes assumptions, what has it achieved? Science is literally the reason why We can communicate as strangers. The guy na correct werey. |
Workch:Yes, that is why I have chosen to ignore him. I won't reply him again. Na my data wey I waste on top the nigga I dey regret now. |
Workch:The guy thinks He is making sense. He keeps defending his Adam and Eve poem and I am asking: "Of all the creation stories out there, what makes Adam and Eve true?" And He is dodging. He has this thing called faith (aka Immunity to evidence). And He thinks it's a good thing. People like him are more susceptible to conspiracy theories. I really feel bad for the nigga |
Ammishaddai:Uhm, Gravity was discovered and so was evolution. Gravity has always been here and so has evolution as long as there is life on a planet. What is your point? You accuse science of assumptions, so I am asking this question, Does religion make assumptions or not. |
Ammishaddai:Hello, excuse me o, Do you understand the difference between a hypothesis and a theory in science? Weren't you thought that a theory in English and a Theory in science are two different things? Omo if you didn't know this, then there is no need to continue this argument. Have a good day. |
MaxInDHouse:I see you keep pulling the Bible into this. Alright the Bible is a book of foundational myths, half-truths, poems, philosophy and fine writing. The prophecies in the Bible are very vague. You know the Bible also says it's okay to keep slaves or marry off rape victims to their rapists, right? The Qur'an, the Torah and other religious books all have their own "prophecies"/reasons for evil in the world and the followers of each religion reference these whenever they want to defend the religion. |
Ammishaddai:Wow your Ignorance is amazing. Excuse sir, did you just say that the Bermuda triangle is a great mystery that modern science cannot explain. The fact that the area within the Bermuda Triangle is heavily trafficked could account for some of the mystery. Any region with lots of ships going through it is bound to see more accidents than a place with less activity. Pair that with the fact that the Bermuda Triangle is often swept by hurricanes, and it’s not hard to see why ships might occasionally sink there. Another common explanation for the Bermuda Triangle rests on magnetism. The Earth’s magnetic North Pole isn’t the same as its geographic North Pole, which means that compasses usually don’t point exactly north. Only along what’s known as agonic lines, which line up magnetic and geographic north, are compasses truly accurate. One agonic line runs from Lake Superior down through the Gulf of Mexico near the Bermuda Triangle. One theory holds that mariners, usually accustomed to accounting for a discrepancy in their compass readings, may make mistakes when very near to the agonic line that lead them astray. Paired with the often shallow waters of the island-strewn Caribbean Sea, navigational errors could lead to boats running aground on hidden shoals. Another theory posits that the Bermuda Triangle might be home to a large-scale magnetic anomaly, a region where the Earth’s magnetic field lines are warped and twisted. This, too, could cause navigational mistakes. But, as others have noted, there’s no evidence the Bermuda Triangle contains any unusual magnetic disturbances, something that’s clear when looking at a magnetic map of the region. More recently, some scientists have suggested that ship sinkings in the Bermuda Triangle could be due to massive bubbles released from undersea methane deposits. The seafloor in the region is known to contain large pockets of gas that could be released suddenly, turning the ocean into a frothy soup that swallows ships. A similar process likely created huge seafloor craters near Norway. But though the mechanism itself makes sense, there’s no evidence of any recent methane release from the area around the Bermuda Triangle. The last time anything similar happened in the region was around 15,000 years ago, according to U.S. Geological Survey geologist Bill Dillon. Another explanation for the Bermuda Triangle that checks out on paper is the presence of rogue waves. These huge waves can form unexpectedly and rise two or even three times above surrounding waves. As Vice reports, British researchers used lab and computer models to simulate the effects of rogue waves more than 100 feet tall on ships as part of an investigation into the Bermuda Triangle. Ships that were sufficiently long could get caught suspended between two wave peaks with nothing supporting them from below and snap in half, one researcher theorizes. But, while rogue waves are certainly capable of capsizing or breaking a ship, we have no definitive evidence tying them to any of the naval disasters in the Bermuda Triangle. The U.S. government doesn’t recognize the Bermuda Triangle, and the area doesn’t appear on any official maps. And the Coast Guard and Department of Defense have repeatedly refrained from giving the area, or its legends, any outsized significance. Furthermore, there’s no evidence suggesting the region sees higher rates of maritime or aviation disasters than anywhere else in the world, after accounting for the amount of traffic that passes through. I see the problem here, you don't fucking understand how science works. Years ago, we didn't understand thunder and what did we do? we invented gods like Thor and Sango to try to explain them. Years ago we didn't understand Sickle cell anemia and what did we do? We invented Ogbanje to try to explain it. Just because your are yet to understand it, doesn't mean it's supernatural. By the way you first have to Proof the supernatural claim you are making. |
Ammishaddai:If you fall ill, you will rush to the hospital, the doctor will put you on drip and prescribe drugs to you. Those drugs and drips are the product of the "assumptions" in science. ![]() Why don't you go to your pastor and ask him to pray for you? You can't keep hurting yourself like this man, free yourself of hatred. Imagine getting pissed off at a scientific discovery, simply because it makes you uncomfortable. |
Ammishaddai:Says the guy typing on the internet. A product of science. We can proof gravity. You know I have this weird feeling that you are a flat earther. Look you can't live this sort of close-minded life. |
Ammishaddai:What is the difference between Science and religion? Science is not afraid of mistakes. Your religion literally tells you that if two animals are mating in front of crossed sticks, then their offspring will be striped. Your religion is so sensitive to criticism that it hates knowledge. If I ask you, be truthful to yourself, what you have against Darwin.... if you search your heart you will know that You truly have nothing against him except for the fact that He made a scientific discovery that your religion is not comfortable with. Religion is the king of assumptions and confirmation bias. Oya proof the existence of ghosts, you can't. But you want me to believe u. When science makes assumptions about something, it makes educated guesses and it doesn't ask you to believe or accept it, until there is enough evidence to back it up. Stay angry boss. |
Ammishaddai:Ogbeni there are other creation stories out there, what is the criteria for picking one and believing it and disregarding the others. Evolution is a theory, yes, but so is Gravity. Lol you are butthurt because Evolution makes your creation story sound foolish. More and more evidences for evolution are discovered every day. Evolution is literally the reason why we understand biology, viruses and our anatomy a little better. If you want to disregard science, why don't you disregard it as a whole? Why do you cherry pick the parts you accept? So let me get things straight, in your twisted mind, science is wrong if it doesn't follow what your religion says? Okay o. I know you are angry because if we start tracing the origins of life now, there is a good chance we won't bounce back to a couple in a garden. Stay angry ![]() Oh I forgot to add, If you have any tangible evidence against evolution, why don't you bring it forward, have it peer reviewed and collect your Nobel prize. |
Ammishaddai:Science doesn't make assumptions. Religion makes assumptions. Science comes up with a hypothesis and works to prove it, a proven hypothesis is called a theory. Science is open, Religion is close-minded. Science is willing to mistakes and makes corrections, Religion on the other hand doesn't ever wants to admit mistakes. Science is not perfect and it's still learning. Your Bible claims that God brought all the animals in the world before Adam and asked him to name them. But we know that Dinosaurs went extinct long before modern humans, so the things is not adding up. The Adam and Eve story you are sharing was likely not even meant to be taken seriously. Earth is over 4 Billion years old. Earth began life as a molten hell. We know life began in water. Your Bible tells you it all began in a middle eastern garden. We know that earth is about 4 Billion years old, so when did the Adam and Eve story happen? Should we take the 6-day creation story literally? As in that god created everything sequentially within a literal 6 day period? We know that earth's oxygenation by cyanobacteria happened around 1-2 billion years ago, so it is impossible for any oxygen breathing animal (humans included) to have existed around that time. Then we start to bring up the case of life beyond earth, there are planets that are way way older than the earth. The conditions for life as we know it have been in place for about 8 billion years, meaning there could be lifeforms out there that are more advanced than earthlings. There is even a greater chance of us finding microscopic lifeforms beyond earth. |
Ammishaddai:What is the proof of a man that lived up to 900 years? What is the proof of a woman turning into salt? Of all the creation stories out there, what is the criteria that makes the middle eastern Adam and Eve story true and the rest false? Especially given the fact that they provide no evidence to back up any of their claims. |
Ammishaddai:Hold on, I don't understand? Are you a young earth creationist? Maybe I misunderstood your initial post, I thought you were trying to defend the creation story or something. Because I know there is no evidence to back it up. |
Ammishaddai:What law of nature tells you that humans can live up to 900 years old? What law of nature tells you that a single man named all the animals in the world, even the ones that went extinct before the dawn of man (I'm talking about dinosaurs). What law of nature tells you that a human can turn into salt? |
Blaqstick:Who be holiness? |

Unlettered:What does the word tarnishing entail here? I am guessing that you are a Christian, So going by your logic, because you don't believe in African gods, you should not be free to criticize them right? So why do you preach against them on Sundays? |
Unlettered:It's too early for this bs. I am sharing my observation on religion in Nigeria. That I'm not religious doesn't mean I cannot see what is happening. |
Sometimes I wonder how and why African gods were demonized. You see Africans gleefully mentioned foreign gods like Thor and Poseidon. But if you bring up Sango, Babalú Ayé or Amadioha, they will start covering themselves with the blood of Jesus. They go to church and sing, "Every other gods na so-so yeye", to a middle eastern god. Yet They claim to be proud of their "culture" and "heritage". But the christians among them would happily destroy shrines and African idols and erect the statue of the middle eastern Mary in it's place.I am not a Pan-African in any way o, I'm just sharing my thoughts on this hypocrisy in Nigeria. A chruch/mosque is burnt in Nigeria and everyone is agitated and angered. But when a shrine is burnt by overzealous religious people, they are applauded and called, "Children of God", "Children of the Kingdom against darkness" You want freedom to practice your religion, but you are not willing to let others practice theirs You see Nigerian law enforcement arresting people simply for possessing "JuJu", and the law enforcement agencies will be applauded, but if someone is arrested for possessing the Bible or the Qur'an, everyone will begin to scream "persecution". |
HedwigesMaduro:Leave religion out of this. |
DappaD:Alright, try to defend your cult in this one. |
