Or could it be that she failed to pay her lawyers retainership fees?

kode12:
Yeah, whatever the case, when you’re aware of your apparent disadvantage in a battle, you don’t jeopardise yourself further by making yourself vulnerable to further attacks.
If she was advised by her lawyers not to show up, she’d better jump back in the legal market for a new representative.

kode12:
Ned Nwoko did not jail her. She had a court date and failed to appear. Any judge would do same thing. You either appear in person or atleast get your lawyer to show up and provide even the lamest excuse. Now she’ll be arrested and be within reach of the courts.

budaatum:
Sorry TenQ, but buda does not do God.

You should have recognised this by the fact that I do not bow down and worship imaginary souls.

DFOmobolla:
If you don't believe in reincarnation then it would be hard to impression on you the absolute individualities of mind and soul.
Mind is the databank of reality and everything within; emotions will experience and perception.
Soul is an inherited mass of life that house the knowledge of nature. People could tap into their soul for inspiration innovation invention.

Consider your mind as who you are, you soul as who you should be.

DFOmobolla:
Spirits have a beginning but no end unlike God who is the primary and eternal spirit.

DFOmobolla:
Your assertions are right. But one correction the soul doesn't process thought the mind does that.

Do you believe in reincarnation?

DFOmobolla:
It would be good if this thread is subjected to natural laws and principles as against religions tenets.

POSmecrhant:
I have a self contained Flat that's giving me 165k every year. But I want to sell the place to invest in business that will give me 120k to 150k every month, because I'm married now, responsiblites will spring up. and dont want to depend fully on 180k salary.

Could this be good or bad idea?

budaatum:
The entire you, body and mind and soul etc, can be killed by man, TenQ. They killed Jesus, but see how fruits he sowed live on and produce fruit a thousandfold.

What Jesus is teaching you is be bold and not worry about your body or your mind or your soul, just like he didn't and died for you, which I personally see as bad advice, for each should bear their own cross and die for their own cause.

budaatum:
That, reasoning and intellectual ability is what distinguishes buda from TenQ. I develop my mind while your soul develops you, it seems.

DeepSight:
1. None of this explains the animal sacrifices of the old testament and
2. The concept of an innocent party paying with his life for the sins of guilty parties hardly seems just.

Balancing the scales of justice requires appropriate reciprocal consequences to those persons who deserve them. The idea that anyone can step in and "buy-out" the punishment is a commercial concept which should be alien to true justice, especially justice of a divine nature. Not only is this "buy-out" concept mercantile in nature, it is also intrinsically pagan and thus as far away from the purity of divine justice as can be imagined.

This is aside from the fact that the said sacrifice of Christ is questionable as a sacrifice. Because to lay down a life that you know for sure you are picking up again three days later is a much better deal than any other mortal has.

budaatum:
I do comprehend it, TenQ. You are saying that your mind is a subset of your soul, which consists of the Faculty of your WILL, EMOTION and INTELLECT.

Now, do you comprehend that my mind is where my own intellect resides, and my mind controls my WILL and EMOTION, and that what you call soul, has no part to play at all?


I answered your question. Instinct is what rules over the animal.




And that is you, subjecting your "Soul to the knowledge of God's words and God's will so that your Soul acquires WISDOM to rule your body", while I wilfully direct my own mind to the deliberate acquisition of knowledge from all sources so that I may understand and acquire Wisdom to rule my body and all by myself instead of leaving it to some soul of mine.

We do not have to be the same, TenQ. Your soul acquires Wisdom to rule you, while I learn with my mind to rule myself. It might explain why you are wiser than me.

budaatum:
You conveniently ignored my question.

TenQ, does your soul rule you or do you rule yourself with your mind?

budaatum:
We do not educate your soul, TenQ, we educate your mind.

budaatum:
And I do not appreciate the dishonesty that makes you attempt to make the two one without first establishing "mind/soul".

budaatum:
I see we are back to the soul.

Did you not notice how often Jesus said, "it was written". Are you not aware that much has been written since Jesus time?

Where he is written to have said, "greater things will you do", it also means you will read more and know more that he did instead of just believing what you read in one book.


TenQ, does your soul rule you or do you rule yourself with your mind?

"Mind/Soul" is a false statement. The two are not the same thing.

PoliteActivist:
You are the one that brought "legally speaking" into it as if first-sonship accords any legal rights.
What actually happens in most cases is that the adopted child becomes the dad's favorite - sometimes he is not even officially adopted

budaatum:
I have looked at it in many ways, and I think you ignored how I see it and are trying to tell me to see it your way, which is like telling me to ignore what I see with my own eyes and mind and just believe what you say, which will make me a slave to you.

Sorry sir, but buda does not believe because buda can ask and knock and seek and does not read only one book so as not to become malnourished. But I'll do some just so you understand how buda sees it.


Because the soul was a requirement in his day. Something needed to go to hell and we all know it wasn't the body, which ended up 6 feet deep as worm food.


It is a requirement for those who need to believe. Only ignorant people will sometimes use heart synonymously with mind, and even then, they will not claim their heart is being attacked when they mind is attacked, and if they do they'd mean something different.

Your soul is irrelevant to me TenQ, because it would be wrong of me to focus on your soul and not on TenQ who is before me.

PoliteActivist:
My point is, being a first son does not accord the son any special LEGAL rights

PoliteActivist:
And what has legality to do with it? Is there any legal rights afforded a first son?

(I wonder what it feels like NOT being a first son. To us first sons being first son is NOTHING. Only when I come accross threads like this)

caesymore:
Mehn...

The adopted will be made to know he is not my biological son, and I will definitely take care of him as mine but definitely not as my first child and I pray I trained him well not to feel jealous because any atom of jealousy will mean I'm sending him away far away

DeepSight:
OK Jamesid29,
Away from all the technicality of language and wayizbahs and Josiahs and Jephtahs and what not.
What is your own take on the concept of a transcendental omnipotent God requiring any kind of propitiatory sacrifice for sins - be it the animal sacrifices of the Old Testament or the alleged sacrifice of Christ of the New Testament.

Lev 16:7-10,16-18,21-22: "And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the LORD at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. And Aaron shall cast lots on the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat. And Aaron shall bring the goat on which the LORD's lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness. … And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins: and so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that remains among them in the middle of their uncleanness. And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he goes in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out, and have made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation of Israel. And he shall go out to the altar that is before the LORD, and make an atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the blood of the goat, and put it on the horns of the altar round about. … And Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness: And the goat shall bear on him all their iniquities to a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness."

tctrills:
We learn of Jephthah in Judges 11 who sacrificed his daughter. Was it an act of righteousness or murder?

NNTR:
loll

Ezekiel 22:30
'I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall
and stand in the gap before Me for [the sake of] the land, that I would not destroy it,
but I found no one [not even one].'

This is a very good worded sentence and done expressed so as to wring out information, loll

Phrase words first to be familiar with are: template/die/prototype/archetype/blueprint/exemplar/first model/original etc, then leader, example.

Next will be, to acknowledge that, sin, coming from a bible perspective, Jewish in particular, is a concept that has to do with missing a mark, coming off target, essentially falling short of God's standard, essentially, if said in layman terms, then a fault, defect, glitch, irregularity, crookedness or flaw.

Following will also be, to acknowledge that, the animal sacrifices of the Old Testament were temporaries, precursors of the sacrifice of Christ, of the New Testament, so to speak, who coincidentally is God Incarnate, that's meaning, God personified in human being flesh, i.e. God in human being body or flesh, loll

As for the, aforementioned 'template/die/prototype/archetype/blueprint/exemplar/first model/original etc', we see them in Manufacturing processes, Computing softwares, Biochemistry etc. Take for example, minting coins, requires using a die. Creating word documents requires, to start with, using a normal.dot template. Even, we all, as human beings, are archetypes of Adam and Eve. Nearly all living organisms have their genetics encoded in their DNA

Now, what is going to be the optimum correction, if something should go wrong (e.g. in terms, of a fault, defect, glitch, irregularity, crookedness, flaw, blemish, blotch, streak, wrinkle, kink etc) with an actual 'template/die/prototype/archetype/blueprint/exemplar/first model/original etc'?

cc: TenQ

budaatum:
Oh! My bad. I did not note you'd dropped the needless soul. I do apologise. But I never said the mind does not exist, TenQ! The mind of buda is what buda is communicating with you with and not buda's physical body nor soul!

budaatum:
My own body used to be a slave to my mind, doing its bidding obeying its instructions until a particular illness affected me and now my body often tells my mind to go to hell.

When my mind was like God to my body, mind would imagine it and body will fulfil it as best it could, joyfully too, but not so much anymore. Now my mind must carry its own burden, which is turning out rather good for my mind, since the added burden makes it stronger and more effective in its doing.

Of course, they both work for budaatum their Lord and Master, who will take them both down to the bottom of a river and bash their heads against rocks if they do not do my will. Thankfully, I trained them well to serve me. And I have compassion for my body since it was the mind with budaatum's insufficiently informed oversight that led the body to pick up the illness.

Think, Trinity. It might help you relate.

LordReed:
Says the one who came into my thread. Dude if you aren't going to bother to read to understand you are a waste of my time.

budaatum:
I don't see why I should do any more than dispute what you think about a thing I see no evidence for its existence. And if you really do intend to learn you'd see I've not only disputed it but given you something to think about.

TenQ:
If your knowledge ends with disputing what others think, you have achieved NOTHING (zero knowledge) except you can show how your position brings better understanding of its workings.

In other words, speak about your own knowledge of the Mind and Body relationship. Go deeper in its comprehension and COMMUNICATE such to others in a comprehensible format.

It is never enough to tear down other comprehension without proposing your own.

We are all hear to learn!

LordReed:
You are just a waste of time. The very first page has what you want but you are too lazy to read it, not going to indulge your laziness.

LordReed:
