Oh you call my assumption that you are poor a silly assumption

yet you dont know that your own multiple assumptions on the pastor you know nothing about are stupid assumptions....

Hehehehe grin
What a joke
Simple maths. In a country with honest tax officials and tax laws, this pastor wouldnt get the chance to be extravagant. Notice how calm Nigerian pastors are in the UK- they never drive bentleys or porsches there

Sound logic indeed.
You know he cant afford it ba?


In Short, by your logic, you are a thief for using the internet. As a poor nigerian, you are not supposed to be on the internet.


Abeg just go. Lmao grin Ekpa logic
Ekpa? You from delta?

I am not poor, so dont be assuming silly things

He cannot afford it. We have not even factored his extravagant lifestyle.

In the picture, he is wearing shoes worth at least $200. His hoodie $100. His porsche car is at least $60,000.


This is a pastor. Which salary gives him that money to spend? To afford such a lifestyle, he most earn nothing less than a million naira a month. That car is 21 million naira. Almost 2 years salary at 1 million naira a month.

There is no word in my statement that defends him.

Rather I only pointed out your docile and rancid logic
Imagine if a poor person who has no mobile phone calls you a yahoo boy for owning a laptop.

Thats the kind of logic you are using here.
Poor man logic.
Kingebukas people dem dem.

The guys logic is sound. If you buy something that you cannot truly afford, then you are doing something illegal

Shitty logic .


How is wearing an expensive piece an evidence that he scams people ?

That means if he indeed scams people , wearing cheap clothes would force you to conclude that he does not scam people ?
The "shitty logic" is from you and not him.

Yes, wearing something you cannot afford is evidence that you are doing something illegal.

You then added the strawman that the opposite (wearing cheap material that he can afford) will show that he does not scam.





Back to the issue. The only people that wear such expensive immature clothing (hoodies) are yahoo boys and immature celebs (especially rappers).

Who buys a hoodie worth over $1,000? A hoodie and not a silk shirt for that matter?

Let us be honest, if the pastor worked hard for that money, he wouldnt be spending it like that. Managers in big companies earn about 400k and above as basic salary. If you earned that, would you waste a month salary on one hoodie sweater? Does he even live in a cold country?

Because black africans have only escaped physical slavery. Mental slavery is still an issue.

Do you know that the average Nigerian muslim lady in the north covers up more than those in Morroco? Ironic?

The british who brought christianity to Nigeria are chilled. They have gay bishops, they allow interdenominational marriages and they work with hindus, pagans and so on.

For those too lazy to click the link, here is a simple comment I saw on a forum that destroys Plantinga's EAAN-


"The first problem is that beliefs are not inherited traits. Natural selection may well favour individuals whose beliefs lead them to greater reproductive success, and these beliefs may well be passed down culturally to their offspring, but the theory of evolution has nothing to do with this. Prof Plantinga clearly has no idea about the theory of evolution.

The second obvious problem is that the EEAN is that it is based on a dualistic notion that beliefs have a neurophysiological structure and associated semantic content. The example of a hominoid running away from a tiger whilst thinking he is trying to pet it shows how Prof Plantinga thinks about how the mind works. However, the modern way in which the brain is thought to work is that part of the brain controls our flight from a danger, such as tiger, with no semantic content whatsoever whilst a separate part of the brain is responsible for language and the semantic content of thinking. Creatures with no areas of the brain capable of language still have a part of the brain capable of recognizing and fleeing from danger, but will have no beliefs about this. Humans have inherited these brain structures, but have an additional part of the brain capable of forming semantic content and beliefs, but which are not inheritable. Prof Plantinga clearly has no idea of theories of how the brain works."

What is wrong with this fellow ? grin

Mister , you have to prove these are indeed flaws before I'll go ahead to refute them . Its becoming obvious you lack an understanding of the quote made by Plantinga .

Superhumanist , the copy and paste atheist who purports himself as a deist but has the beliefs of a pantheist . You claim the universe is God but does not understand that if the universe has an intrinsic conscious creative and divine force then the goal of natural selection wouldn't just be survival because the divine would logically be interested in the realization of truths one of which would be that within it is a conscious creative force orchestrating the formation or development of natural/material objects .

Please take urhara's place as the forum's ...
How ironic. You are throwing straw men now. My deism.has nothing to do with your deluded support of Platinga's dead argument.

I have been very busy lately so have no post or comment to waste on anyone who fails to understand what platinga said and would simply just type without proof of his brilliant analysis being flaws.

You have to prove these are actually flaws in the argument and I'm waiting for you to prove they are indeed flaws in the argument . But you've been throwing tantrums since then and I've been calm enough to direct the puerility back at you .
I now know that you are mentally imbalanced. If you want a civil debate, then address the flaws that I pointed out in Platinga's argument.

After all, the flaws can be found on any philosophy site or forum dealing with the argument.

the ball is in your court. Keep in mind that you are the one looking foolish here because you havent done research on the matte.

How do you know which belief is true or false and how does either increase your chances of survival ?
What kind of trolling question is this?

Numerous examples have been given in many philosophy forums on this argument.

For example, if you have the belief that tigers are cuddly, you will surelymeet your doom if you act on that belief.


Please do some research

This does not contravene the rationale behind Platinga's quote . You are just talking about something different but not entirely . You are the one who does not understand the quote or its rationale . And you created a strawman which is fallacious .
Please, if you want to behave like an ignorant troll, kindly do not quote me.

Almost all the numerous rebuttals to Platinga's argument point out those 2 pitfalls


Kindly do some research before you show your lacking capacity

Quoting Alvin Platinga

"naturalism cannot even be rationally affirmed. For if naturalism was true, the probability that our cognitive faculties would be reliable is pretty low. For those faculties have been shaped by a process of natural selection which does not select for truth but merely for survival. There are many ways in which an organism could survive without its beliefs’ being true. Hence, if naturalism were true, we could not have any confidence that our beliefs are true, including the belief in naturalism itself! Thus, naturalism seems to have a built-in defeater that renders it incapable of being rationally affirmed."

Well said !
I can bet my life on two things. The first is that you do not understand the meaning of the quote and secondly, Alvin Platinga, despite his intelligence, did not even really think out his conclusion in the quote.


Alvin Platinga seems not to understand some pitfalls to his arguments

1. Beliefs are not an inherited trait. One cannot necessarily tie the process of evolution to beliefs. It is more sensible to compare evolution/naturalism with instincts (and not beliefs).

2. Those with true beliefs (with regards to their immediate environment ) have a better chance of surviving than those with false beliefs. The caveat here is that not all beliefs affect survival.

No, this thread is different. Its purpose is to change the current status quo and errors that have pervaded this section, brought in by we Christians.

It's not too late to make a u-turn and this thread will go a long way to cause a change,by God's grace.
Change is the only thing that is constant.

Accept that it is no longer the time of christianity dominating religious topics.

Nigerians are fed up with modern christianity. Tithe frauds, perverted pastors, arrogant pastors, fraudulent churches, private jets etc.
