Dammytrager:Hahahahaha......Dammy, you too? Being a pastor could be fun, you know? ![]() Chiamaka01:Hmmmmmm.......I wonder why I don't believe you, me thinks it's personal experience. ![]() |
MissTeaseMe:I'll be back later in the day to answer the questions you raised but for now, let me just say that I'm not going to preach any religion to you yet. I am here to show you that atheism thrives not on it's own evidences but by trying to pull down the evidences of theism. Also, I knew you'll take my bait about the throwing of Absolutes out of the window because that is what atheists do. But how can you do this? I just told you that millions and people were murdered because of that belief. Can there not come a time in the world when men will have a seemingly valid economic or political theory with which to make killing right ,afterall what are human beings but a collocation of atoms? You have already agreed with me that the reason you know murder is wrong is because you were taught. Before I come back, please read up on Josef Stalin and how his hatred for things religious and his reading the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche helped him build his political and economic theory that led to the death of many. Thanks a lot for your replies, God bless. Don't worry, you're already on your way to agnosticism, when I saw your posts this morning, I had a surge of hope. Take care. Mr Davien,*chuckles* I know what I'm about to say may seem unfair but really, I don't think I can discuss anything meaningful with you online. I know many like you and I see a lot of prejudice and bias in your posts. Engaging you in an argument will have one inevitable end: sharp disagreements where either side ends up angry and more prejudiced towards the other belief system coupled with the waste of a huge amount of time and energy and that is something i can't lose now. I hope you understand that I have nothing against you, im just politely declining. Goodluck to you. |
lilchris04:They use an academic calendar quite different from ours and they cannot go on strike till they receive instructions from the Person in charge of the College of Medicine but that doesn't mean that they do not go on strike. They go on strike but it depends on the gravity of the cause of the strike. At least last time OAU was on strike because of the issue of fees, they were also told to go home. |
lilchris04:Do you prefer 2017? ![]() |
sketcherJ:See this dude oh, who told you I have weapons? Abeg oh......except you want paper gun or rubber band and paper bullet. |
Johnwills:Johnwills' Weed man is sick |
hausadreturn:Yup.....GTA, Die Hard,Splinter Cell etc. It's an actual actual weapon bro...Liquid Bomb. ![]() |
lilchris04:If everything goes as planned, it should be January but with the election and OAU's unfortunate appetite for meaningless strikes.......need I say more? Just pray, we ASGs started our own since. |
hausadreturn:Yup.....GTA, Die Hard,Splinter Cell etc. It's an actual actual weapon bro...Liquid Bomb. ![]() |
Chiamaka01:I know right......who doesn't love love peace? ![]() Everyone, except some of us ....and you just won yourself a stalker on OAU campus ![]() |
Chiamaka01:I know you're whining and that's why I'm gonna revenge later...... and enjoy it well.Watch your back.Also,remind me if I forget or your punishment becomes more. ![]() Hint: As from today, when you attack and/or oppose anyone and/or their views on NL either by way of joke or being serious. WATCH YOUR BACK! God bless you. ![]() Btw, Chiamaka, choirmasters are bad? HOW DO YOU KNOW THIS? Care to share the event that inspired this with them or should I just tell them for you? ![]() |
MissTeaseMe:I'll start by stating that my perogative is to tell you why I'm not an atheist and to prove that atheism isn't a smart choice. It is self-defeating. In later posts l'll say my religion and why I have that believe system. Firstly, the issue of an absolute Law is one that we cannot over look in our quest for truth. You asked me to show how religion explains Morality and ethics. I'll give a very simpe and logical answer to this and give an illustration from one of the most epic trials in History; the Nuremberg trials. I never implicitly said our sense of moral is from God. You must understand that anything that deals with what is good and what is bad is purely a result of your environment and culture. What this means in essence is that an uncivilised person say a person living in the Amazon forest who happens to be a cannibal believes that eating people is good. Murder means nothing to such a person. Stealing means nothing to such a person. Doesn't this follow that at some point in history there must have been a sort of revelation or giving of an Absolute Law or code of living by an entity that exists outside the universe? If man became moral beings on their own like I suspect you'll say, then what is our yardstick for measuring right and wrong? Is it just a random poll of what we all agree on? If atheism is true, there is no Moral Law in this universe? There is no absolute right and wrong! To drive home my point, i'll paint a scene from the Nuremberg trial of the Holocaust. At the Nuremberg trials, there was a fascinating dialogue going on all the time about how these judges would defend themselves. The man that defended them kept on saying that they were operating according to the Laws of the Land. Those laws validated the death of over 11 million people. The country validated those Laws!!!! Finally, in frustration, somebody said "gentlemen, is there not a LAW above our Laws? And if you ask an atheist, there is no law above our Laws. I'll answer your next question about the galaxy in my next post. I'll round up this one by saying, the fact that you have noticed inconsistencies in theism doesn't mean there aren't more in athiesm. Allow me to define atheism; it is not a believe that says I don't think there is a God. It is saying "I am sure that there is no God. It is affirming a negative in the Absolute and that is an illogical conclusion. Why? It is equivalent to saying there is no tree with 500000 leaves anywhere in the umiverse.The only way to affirm that is to have unlimited knowledge of the universe. Atheism says "I have infinite knowledge to say that there is no one's with infinite knowledge". Be right back.........Let's sit tight. ![]() |
Chiamaka01:Chiamaka, why do I get the feeling that your asking for a rifle was a silent jab at me. ![]() Just pray I don't catch you outside...... ![]() |
Chiamaka01:LMAO ![]() ![]() ![]() Chiamaka, if I I catch you ehn.Dammy, don't mind her oh, she wants a big brother like you to be mad at a lil shide like me I was joking about your lines (from one side of my mouth) and now I'm saying that they are top-notch from another side. I'm forgiven right? |
Dammytrager:Lmao.....Oga mi, no dey press P for your boy now. ![]() Fire on, bro.......we are learning even when we don't admit it. Btw, I am pro-Dammy and also, your lines are state of the art. ![]() |
MissTeaseMe:There are far more inconsistencies in atheism and there is actually more evidence for the existence of God than against it if you're being objective. That's why men like Bill Gates and Blaise Pascal came to the conclusions they did. Firstly, I'm not a religious person, I just need answers to certain questions. Where did you get your sense of morality and ethics from? Do you realise that cannibals in thick jungles eat their own children? Have you ever read about the complexity of the Galaxy? I actually almost became an atheist until I discovered that it takes more faith to be an atheist than a theist. There are a million questions that atheists cannot answer but always gives the silly answer that science will answer it in years. Besides, most of those videos show an incredibly high level of ignorance( or is it bias) on the part of whoever created them. I love carrying out intelligent and objective conversations with atheists and skeptics and I say this with all due respect to the atheists on this thread. Some of you have taken it as a point of duty to convert this "unyielding" believers hence you aren't being objective. |
sketcherJ:Molotov cocktail or taser? ![]() |
Chiamaka01: should I bring boxing gloves or a flame thrower? |
Chiamaka01:It's not my fault oh, these Imagine.......and they expired since the time of Lucifer, ahann!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() DAMMY, please search for newer lines, I wish you a lot of goodluck with that and Patience as all the girls will avoid you for the time being. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Dammytrager:Those lines my friends are the kinda lines Adam used on Eve. ![]() Dammy, using old lines since the beginning of time ![]() ![]() ![]() |
lilcharlo:I believe this was discussed earlier on this thread. We don't know for certain but the general consensus is that it's to divert the pressure that students that haven't been admitted have been mounting on the Deans. Look into it; call the number in the text message and hear what they have to say. |
Darlene1:Understatement and haydot95's hostel. Where are they? |
lildrop:It's not as far if you take the bush paths...About 15mins or there about if you're trekking. |
sazy:uumm's hostel......it's a good hostel, I believe. Anyone in Genesis hostel? |
haydot95:Eh?......juju survive hydrogen bomb? No comments ![]() |
Look at this one; A professor is trying to explain to a student that a situation in their county is quite different from the way that it is in other countries. Let's assume the situation is the authority of the UNO and we will refer to the situation as "that" Professor: Our situation does not apply in other countries. Student: How does that not apply there? Professor: That that is (here) is that that is not (there) Student:is that it? Professor: it is. I hope you you can see that there are alternatives? ![]() |
uumm:wow...on point! But I believe the punctuations can be placed in other ways. |
haydot95:*Unfortunately, jet has missile deflector which deflects the bazookas missile* *drops Hydrogen Bomb and watches as Nairaland blows into smithereens* ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
haydot95:*flies in with fighter jet carrying missiles* |
understatement:Punctuations are a funny thing, I believe almost everyone can validate their answers with an explanation. Uumm, give us a scenario where such sentences may be used. ![]() |
Benvolio:I'm waiting for the day when an Army of babalawos will march against the American army. That would be the next Holocaust after Hitler. |
