Dude your posts are full of errors most times. On occasion its lucidly clear and error free, I wonder if its the same person. Don't be offended though it doesn't mean much, just a question.

You mean grammatical errors.

LordReed:
Serious question, are you high sometimes when you post?

what is that suppose to mean. Is there any error or false claim with what I post

tintingz:
This didn't answer the question.

How come Africa was colonized for years?

What exactly is the purpose of juju?

if this don't answer the question . then i don't know the kind of answer you are looking for.

Juju as is used by Africans today is European superstition. What I'm saying is african people ruled the earth for hundreds and thousands of years before Europeans even came into existence. The fact that the European rule now does not have anything to do with a spiritual powers, it has to do with everything happening in it's cycle. When the law of universe say it's time for a thing to happen, no magical power nor supernatural abilities can stop that thing from occurring. it's the law of cause and effect call it what you will

tintingz:
Again, there is no evidence of juju.

Juju are just tricks, if there is juju how come Africa was colonized?

Let's start with that.

i don't understand your boggle...this topic has once been treated before. it's a proven fact that Africans are the original people on the earth.

The answer to your question is simple. The same reason why the Chinese didn't use the power of chi to defeat the Europeans. In reality it's the same energy we are dealing with, but it was just not used for that purpose.

There is a reason for everything and if you study history you will come to that conclusion, every thing on earth happens in cycles.

1000, years before the Europeans ruled the Chinese civilization flourished because they mastered the art turning silk into clothing and they had armies to back them up. They also invented paper and the gunpowder. Along with the compass.

500 YEARS. before that the Romans ruled the earth for only 500 years because of there ability to organize and assimilate people into a robust military machine.

But according to the Europeans themselves The people of North east Africa originated civilization it self.

And we know from oral traditions and archaeological findings that West Africa had a flourishing bustling civilization at the same time as ancient Kemet.

My point is, its not just spiritual power and the ability to harness it that makes people flourish as a civilization, nor is it the ability to set them out of existence as a threat to your survival.

African spirituality is more practical than that it's not supernatural abilities attributed to the characters of the Bible that we're dealing with here.

It's clear that at some point in our history we failed to do what we where doing to keep our people on top of the world for the majority of time that our species has been on the planet.

The European came along and took everything that he has learned from every other civilization that preceded him put it together and use it against all of us and dominated the earth.

We are living in the Times of our past glories. It's simply there time now....

It's not the money that doesn't exist. The entire show was an April Fools hoax!

That is it.

NPComplete:
Sometimes it is better to just keep quiet that to be digging yourself deeper inside a whole. First u asserted boldly that there is no money. Now u are claiming it was promissory notes.

Then you will be good at misreading, there was no money claim by independent verified agent and at best is might be a promissory note. How is it not mutually exclusive.

This is what Randi himself said in the transcript that u obviously didnt read well before mouthing off.

i brought out the refrence to cross check you and your cohort championing the idea of the challenge as if it is flawless.

U think an organization will just risk massive lawsuit that will cause them more than $1 million just to claim they have $1m they dont have to give? Wetin u dey yarn sef?

what are you saying? Maybe you have not heard about ponzi schemes

By the way promissory notes are also valid sources of payment, u know. Like Capslocked said, you dont read u just share anything u want as long as u think it suits your agenda.

A promissory note is not in and of itself a contract, as only one party signs, but it is a two-party instrument. For the “prom” note to become enforceable it requires valuable consideration from the payee in the form of of money, first. Then it does become a contract in the sense that the maker must then pay up

Like i will said. You guys already have a preconsive notion that is not ready to welcome any enlightenment.

THE ONE MILLION DOLLAR($1,000,000) PARANORMAL CHALLENGE WAS AN OFFER BY JAMES RANDI, TO PAY OUT ONE MILLION U.S. DOLLARS TO ANYONE WHO CAN DEMONSTRATE A SUPERNATURAL OR PARANORMAL ABILITY UNDER AGREED-UPON SCIENTIFIC TESTING CRITERIA.

A VERSION OF THE CHALLENGE WAS FIRST ISSUED IN 1964. OVER A THOUSAND PEOPLE APPLIED TO TAKE IT, BUT NONE WERE SUCCESSFUL. THE CHALLENGE WAS TERMINATED IN 2015.

ALL THE JUJU, MAGIC, SORCERY, SUPERNATURAL THIS AND THAT, THAT PEOPLE CLAIMED THEY COULD DO COULD NOT BE DONE UNDER SUPERVISION, BY ANY MAGICIAN OR VOODOOIST OR ALFA ON EARTH.... FOR 1 MILLION DOLLARS.

There is a video on Youtube titled, Seth Raphael Claims Randi’s Million Dollar Challenge. In the video raphael claims to have created a computer program that can identify a person’s randomly selected card from a shuffled deck. There is a device that “reads thoughts” when worn. In the end of the test, Randi agrees he cannot explain the program’s power, and that the device can basically read minds… However, there is a twist so feel free to watch and find out. In all honesty the money don't exist

One day, Young Deps received a messge from God. For eighteen hours, Young Deps claims he got a clear line to God.

Talking to God is not walky-talky. Lines are always open, and God can talk to everyone at the same time, in any language. Jehovah Overdo.

Or sometimes, he just speaks to someone, who relays the message to others.. As he was about to do with Young Deps. This method saves him a lot of stress, though a few have doubted the efficacy of this method. Why not put the phone on loudspeakers so everyone can hear him? ....

It was just turning dark when Young Deps leapt out of the phone-booth. Heavenly call rates are mortal-friendly - it only costs time.

'People, people, gather around, gather around' Young Deps screamed at those around him, waving his Bible in the air, alongside his old turncoat...

'I have a message for you'....

I admire your writting skills. Though your message are hilarious

PhenomenalMorgan:
Leonardo da vinci lived nearly 400 Years before einstein yet he was able to outlearn his generation by inventing models of many machines and devices, he pioneered research and made remarkable discoveries in optics,anatomy.geology etc, wikipedia refers to him as a man "revered for his technological ingeinuity"
How do u compare the intelligence of a da vinci that created things far past his time and generation and albert einstein who only discovered things relevant and in tune with his time and generation

This is not true. Both of them are inteligent and exhibit knowledge that is far ahead of their time.

Stop your dick measuring

OpenYourEyes1:
Einstein believed in God. "God does not play dice" was his quote while researching a phenomenon called Quantum Entanglement.

This is probably fake or was his beliefs in his early years in scientific research.

it wasn't fake nor was is believe in his early years.

Einesten actually reject abrahimic concept of God.
He is pandist( a kind of Spinoza ideaology)it a notion of "God" that differs from Atheism only at the semantic level, yet it could be regarded as a form of Theism.

Some Einstein quotes regarding his ideology

“The idea of a personal God is quite alien to me and seems even naïve.”

“It seems to me that the idea of a personal God is an anthropological concept which I cannot take seriously. I feel also not able to imagine some will or goal outside the human sphere. My views are near those of Spinoza: admiration for the beauty of and belief in the logical simplicity of the order which we can grasp humbly and only imperfectly. I believe that we have to content ourselves with our imperfect knowledge and understanding and treat values and moral obligations as a purely human problem—the most important of all human problems.”

Thugaa:
so did he accept god by this letter? You need to read and read that letter until you understand it. You can not get to the level of Eistein and still believe in fairy tales religious stories and beliefs. But everyone will get to that height of mind energy, we are all growing

— he is rejecting the idea of a “personal god”, a benevolent, human-like entity who took an interest in human affairs. He did not describe himself as an atheist, not in anyway what so ever.though he did not believe in an afterlife — he believed that God existed, but that he was nebulous, universal, and not comprehensible to the human mind.

What do you elven mean by you cannot get to the Level of Einesten and still believe in fiarry tales

The most famous chemist of all time is probably Marie Curie (a Catholic, until her mother’s death drove her to agnosticism, but never outright atheism, similar to Einstein). Many great mind of esteem figure are theistic like minded.

I notice the op did a lazy job by not including the letter here, therefore creating a false impression Abraham Einesten reject God. Well, he do reject God, the kind of personal God that entire abrahimic theology surround.

This is the full letter , read it yourself and understand his thought.

"" Princeton, 3. 1. 1954

Dear Mr Gutkind,

Inspired by Brouwer's repeated suggestion, I read a great deal in your book, and thank you very much for lending it to me. What struck me was this: with regard to the factual attitude to life and to the human community we have a great deal in common. Your personal ideal with its striving for freedom from ego-oriented desires, for making life beautiful and noble, with an emphasis on the purely human element. This unites us as having an "unAmerican attitude."

Still, without Brouwer's suggestion I would never have gotten myself to engage intensively with your book because it is written in a language inaccessible to me. The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weakness, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still purely primitive, legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation, no matter how subtle, can change this for me. For me the Jewish religion like all other religions is an incarnation of the most childish superstition. And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong, and whose thinking I have a deep affinity for, have no different quality for me than all other people. As far as my experience goes, they are also no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything "chosen" about them.

In general I find it painful that you claim a privileged position and try to defend it by two walls of pride, an external one as a man and an internal one as a Jew. As a man you claim, so to speak, a dispensation from causality otherwise accepted, as a Jew the privilege of monotheism. But a limited causality is no longer a causality at all, as our wonderful Spinoza recognized with all incision, probably as the first one. And the animistic interpretations of the religions of nature are in principle not annulled by monopolization. With such walls we can only attain a certain self-deception, but our moral efforts are not furthered by them. On the contrary.

Now that I have quite openly stated our differences in intellectual convictions it is still clear to me that we are quite close to each other in essential things, i.e; in our evaluations of human behavior. What separates us are only intellectual "props" and "rationalization" in Freud's language. Therefore I think that we would understand each other quite well if we talked about concrete things.

With friendly thanks and best wishes,

Yours,

A. Einstein""

MuttleyLaff:
We know that and all
but I repeat, in all honesty vaxx, what feature(s) does the OJ Simpson and Holocaust memes, have in common?

in both cases - O J Simpson and the Holocaust - there is definite physical, photographic and eyewitness evidence. Evidence of empirical demonstration are all what they have in common.

MuttleyLaff:
I quite agree with this remark and agreed without demur

In all honesty vaxx, what feature do both memes, have in common?

Inspite of ample and overwhelming evidences, it is laughable that atheism is still demanding for empirical demonstration of God

That is why i said too much of anything, be it credulity or skepticism, is a bad thing. As it leads to denialism and paranoia

Emperical demonstration is not the only method of truth seeking , there is also a rules based system which proceeds from step to step to a solution.

MuttleyLaff:
What is the complex question?

in all honesty, the existence of God is a complex topic.. self evident for some of us who accept it by faith. More complex for those of us who demand an explanation .

There is False equivalency between the two meme subjects you posted and between those subjects and rejection of god.

United States laws have an adversarial form of legal representation. That is, the lawyers on each side of an issue oppose one another, and with the sole purpose of winning the case, despite justice or even evidence. The object is to convince a jury of 12 untrained people who are unable to avoid jury duty that the chosen reality is correct, and each side can manipulate any and all evidence to win. Therefore, whether you're innocent or guilty, the cunning of your legal team will determine whether you go to prison.

Holocaust deniers are dishonestly blind to facts because of their skewed mind set.The evidence exists and can't be invalidated , but some flaw of reasoning, typically emotional responses overcoming the intellect, or the result of indoctrination, often from birth, is blocking their self sustainable evidence.

Atheism are demanding for emperical demonstration of God.

MuttleyLaff:
The point made with the OJ Simpson and Holocaust is that ample and overwhelming evidence is not necessarily a panacea, solution or answer.
It is something simple than overwhelming evidence

Thomas Aquinas succinctly said:
"To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary.
To one without faith, no explanation is possible"

Too much of anything, be it credulity or skepticism, is a bad thing. Too much skepticism becomes denialism and paranoia. The memes are exactly what memes almost always are, a simplification, and in this case, an oversimplification, of a more complex question.

MuttleyLaff:
The common denominator shared in the OJ Simpson and holocaust is overwhelming evidence
Thank you for conceding and confirming that inspite of overwhelming evidence, some people do deny the obvious and reality of the holocaust

Apples and oranges comparison, A logical and fastfiorward thinking atheist may ask if that is the so called evidence for God?. I actually do not think that is a good defence anyway.

francis247:
! I should have used what or how instead of who? The title of the thread borders on "who", not "what" nor "how".

why can't you identify the flaws and improve it. You aren't meant to be limited.

francis247:
lol! Who made nature?

Who made the weak and diseased creatures?

You shouild used what or how instead of who. What and how allow the possibility of research and who limit it. The nature is everything that exist around us and has been created in long term processes by very simple elements that evolute in much more complicate organisms. Something much more more pragmatic start the process that created the nature.. "" we nickname it God""

Weak and deasese people exist for a variety of reasons...for example ""genetic reasons"" which is part of the evolutionary process . Remember . It is survival of the fittest where equal chance is given to all.

francis247:
This would only have be realistically possible if all things had originally been made equal. There are persons not factored into your disposition - the dweebs, the misfits, the pariahs, persons born with one or multiple forms of physical or intellectual disability or disorder. I'm not asking that if he exists, he should provide for us that which he has empowered us to provide for ourselves. I'm rather demanding that he shows up like the all knowing, all powerful, omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient God of gods theists claim he is and provide for that which we cannot provide for ourselves, I'm demanding that he shows up and fix the loopholes and messes in the superstructure he designed. No matter how much a father empowers his children, there will always be things the children will never be able to provide for themselves. If God exists, then he's no more than a father who abandoned his family when the going got tough or for some other reason or maybe, just maybe, he never and doesn't exist but is rather an invention of the imagination of certain persons to serve as an easy explanation to the absurdities of the universe in which we live.

it seems you are reading mantra . I will expect you to be more logical and critical.

Nature is reasonably meritocratic,(survival of the fittest) meaning ""equality of opportunity exists to every one "" notions of fairness and equality are human concepts. Nature, when anthropomorphized, is merciless, ruthless & pragmatic. Those organisms that are best adapted to survive & reproduce, will. Those that aren't, are eaten or, in some other way, used to advance the survival & reproduction of a more "fit" organism. That make morw sense to me.

If a lifeform is fit, it will out-perform others. Weak and diseased creatures underperform. This may result to some human concept notion ""inequality"" but each individual gets an equal chance at success.

francis247:
Two words - Moderation and Equality.
A universe devoid of all forms of extremism, unhealthy rivalry, bitterness and strife. A universe where extreme pain, sorrow and anguish is but a dream and real joy, laughter, merriment and satisfaction is a core part of our reality not only for a select few but for each and everyone. A universe where everyone is mentally, physically and psychologically placed on an equal pedestal, if not completely, at least almost. The parity is simply too much. A universe of one tribe, race and religion. A universe totally devoid of all forms of discrimination, hate and abuse, one where we would not have to tolerate each other because we're all exactly like each other. A universe where each and everyone matters, I mean truly matter in the scheme of things.

We can like the world to be equal and moderated , but equality to be fair must be self regulated, not externally mandated. It is up to you to make the world what you expect of it. The mechanism to make the world already is in place

1- Can everyone have a great education? Yes.
2- Can everyone be financially secure? Yes.
3- Can everyone be well fed? Yes.
4- Can everyone be healthy? Yes.
5 -can everyone love themselves? Yes.

I list education first because all else flows from education [i.e]. If you are educated, you can find a job. Then you tailor your lifestyle to your income. With proper budgeting you can also eat well, and maintain your health. With any excess income you can buy luxuries.if all this are achieved, there will be no need for hatred. And love itself will be our main goal.

iamuye:
Has anyone ever wondered if, when Time stops, would God stop?

Your question or assumption presupposes that God is within the limits of time, space and energy/matter by which we appear to be bound. It also presupposes that God is limited by our human notions of causality.

As I have said in my ""what created God thread"", any God that could be apprehended and described by my own meagre, mortal powers of perception, conceptualisation or even of mathematical calculation would not be worth believing in.

Most of the great religious traditions of the world tend to regard God as infinite, causeless and transcendent of (yet also immanent in and sustaining) all that exists. They would also say that God is ineffable.

That is why any language that is used to convey some idea of God must, necessarily, be figurative.

vaxx:
Your postulation so far was based solely on concent...and you were please that the state and the same sex in question agree to it by using their certificate and white dress as a validation ""Fine"" in which i postulate same thing can't happen in Nigeria because that move contradict the very notion of concent as stipulated under Nigeria contract of marriage. I even go ahead by stating that the countries validating this contracts are promoting beautiful lies. Because in actual sense, they are not protected by the benefit given to valid marriage contract. That is my basic explanation so far.

""You said what others do in their room should be part of my concern especially if what they do is evil"" i said that we constitute the breach of privacy, in so far what they are doing is not affecting public or enviroment affairs. What others do in their private confine is none of my business. It is against thier constitutional right for me to poke nose into theor private affairs that does not has anything to do with public or enviroment affairs.


i will rather say rational validation is the key, for us ( Nigeria) not to fall into the same dishonest lies like our western brethren, we need to see the flaws of this concent among the same sex marriage and correct it as posssible. A marriage between same sex marriage is not traditional and if same sex marriage must be included then the marriage definition must be changed.. As you may understand it, marriage is not merely the expression of a love people have for each other. It is, or is intended as, a life-long union between two people who exemplify the biological duality of the human race, with the openness to welcoming children into the world. Even when children do not arrive, the differentiated twoness of marriage indicates its inherent structure.

None of my words shows here i exhibit the phrase you are trying ti robbed me with. I want us to discuss the nitty gritty of the the concent you used up there. Answering your question isn't a solution to the problem. You know. But understanding the flaws that comes with your question. In a valid legal sense"" a marriage is a contract between two consented aduilts.(i.e) man and woman. Not man and man or woman and woman. Until that definition change. And gves room to other option which is not limited to gay/lesbianism alone. Or else the definition we be doing partiality. .

when it is same sex, it become more complicated. The western nation that adopts it are aware, and that is the logic in making it a much more of ceremony marriage instead of a legitimate marriage that comes with benefit. It is a way of telling you to go ahead but don't ask for benefits. It is a private affairs .

As i said, what people do in their bedroom is not my business so far it is not affecting public and enviromental affairs.

if Muttleylaff read this response and still said, i haven't answer his question . Then it is a delibrate dishonesty...

vaxx:
let me summarise our discussion so far..
1 Your basis is on concenting aduilt. You asserting the notion that it has no negative effect on the environment which is taking place and neither does it cost harm to the consenting adults.

2 This is your veiw, i let you know that the same veiw can also be used to invalidate the crime levelled against two mutual fighter. Infact in most countries there are legal forms of boxing or MMA style fighting. Football, rugby and hockey satisfy the rest of the blood-lust. What will you do about this? This is not distraction at all. It is even spicing your notion.

See bro, The concept of concent you are using here is bogus as it needs to address some basic question


1 what is the scope of concent

2 what is the extent of permissible concent

3 how are you going to prove concent.

the legality of lesbianism/gay is really more of a question of fact, not of law. Unless you have an answer to the questions i raised?.

To those who cares to know, this is my first reply to Muttleylaff on the question he posited.
