What is occult in using blade to give a vertical cut to the plastic bottle, then force a small Nokia phone inside thought the cut?

I do better mindblowing magic tricks and I learnt them to enlighten people that juju is fake as well as also expose frauds like you. Spit!!!

I had once given you practical evidence that African science is not fake. I even show you how effective it is in comparing to western science. have you been there?

iamgenius:
Certified Babalawos, lol. Ogun invented technology? Ok, I agree. My question: Who is Ogun? A human being who is also a god? Never post in religion section again, go to Technology section and show us what Ogun(who got drunk while coming from a party) invented with his tech. apart from beheading dogs for him. Nolly is only doing what befits all babalawos. When does a babalawo become someone who lives in mansions if not for their cheap SCAMS, MAGIC, and... Today is not for you Gbajue. Wa Inna Jundana Lahu Mul Gaalibuun(never mind its meaning, it's not an insult)

*Modified*
'Ayelala' I fear that one gidi gaan. Make Ayelala no come to me oo Babalawos. Wait, are you Awo Funfun or Awo Dudu, abi you are black and white?

Every life form and element of nature have an inner soul force. the natural energy of all metals is Ogun. . every human being communicate with it whether we aware or not.

Ogun itself is a divinity. just like angel. so we Yoruba do not worship him but pay obeyance.

it seems you do not know about your faith Islam. I don't want to start exposing Islam. don't start with ATR.

kennyblack94:
When "God" is inserted as the Protagonist, human responsibility is often thwarted. When the "Devil" is inserted as the Antagonist, human accountability is derailed. It isn't until humanity realizes that we are our own saviors that we will understand the long-term benefits of benevolence, empathy, compassion, and solidarity.Satan is an absurd device used by insecure Christians to impose their beliefs, hence their will, onto other people.The Devil is not a power of any world except the world of imagination,he is fictional scapegoat for all that believers cannot explain about the world and find it distressing.

I love the word Fictional scapegoat.

Tenkobos:
I dated his sister

you said so

1. Is the Devil "real" or just a representation of our selfish nature?

2. can we treat the existence of God equally to that of Devil?


3.why do God needs to create Devil in the first place?.

4. Do God really need hell- fire concept to promote sinless society or enforce justice in the hereafter?


waiting for good reply from nairaland great thinker


I am a believer . an African traditional faithful. this is my motto. believing in judgemental God and non existing devil steal your future.

TheShopKeeper:
Not so sure if such subject has been raised on this forum, however, I have a question that has been on my mind lately.

I have been privileged to meet quite a number of people from different culture, various works of life, within and outside the country and I found that those who are atheist are more of the male population than our female folks. Also, I have read extensively and once again to my surprise, more books on atheistism are written by men compared to women.

So to all the eminent and intelligent folks on this forum, why are there more atheist men than women or put it in another way, why are women more religious than men?

***Please all responses are welcome with no bashing or derogatory comments about any gender***

first of all, there is no concrete answer to your question. every idea here will bias in some way.

my own contribution.

when it comes to love. cares and feelings. give it to the women. women who have already develop a feelings with imaginary friend may find it difficult just to breakup. women who are more smart often do not use the smartness when it comes to emotion and love affairs. this can be applicable to men too anyways, but I think is common among women

obinna58:
Do you still require scientific evidence for things happening around you, go further bro maybe I need enlightenment

I think there should be clear scientific evidence on the topic. it is an issue that most be resolved to address gender inequality.


since there is no credible scientific evidence known to me for now. I shall base my findings on observation and assumption.

in physical strength. men appear more stronger than women in the area of size and muscle but in general physical qualities like agility and balance ,immune system and emotions women outperform men.

I also observe women live longer and the reason I accredit to this is that women are bilogically better survivors from the day they’re born.

Statistically, baby girls are more robust than boys, which makes mortality rates among babies a little skewed in favour of girls.

And for reasons that scientists don’t fully understand, throughout their lives women tend to survive the same diseases that kill men.

obinna58:
Women tends to have weakness more than men
Both physically and mentally(infirmity), that's why they can easy be deceived

I disagree with you. but before I go further. do you have any scientific evidence that claim women are more weaker than men.

Jhaytee4all:
` you an atheist or what?

Lil am a believer. who is very practical.

Jhaytee4all:
I comment my reserve

lol am only giving you a chance to reason outside what you heard. I know very well you do not exist in the 1632_..... therefore you can't remember nor have a knowledge. that is what will happen to you when you die. you shall return to a state of non existence. it will be like a phone without a battery

Jhaytee4all:
...

what happen to you in the year 1632. if you can remember that is exactly what will happen to you after you die .

MiddleDimension:
As an atheist, Evolution, though there are still some gaps in our understanding of the universe and the foundation of all life, offers a far richer and more meaningful explanation of life in general, than any other alternative narative there is.

You only need to look at the species in different parts of the world, the fossils of extinct versions of current species as well as those of species that are non existent anymore we've got. You also need to look up on the genetic codes of different species we have at our disposal to be able to understand that evolution is actually a far truer explanation of life.

But what do you think? What are your veiws on evolution? What are your reservations if you've got any? Let us have a meaningful discussion. No insults, etc.

@Algerian1 you are welcome in here too.

am a believer. the evidence of evolution is too accurate, though they are some few scientists who disagree. am in between. I will not say no or yes. no because it go against logic yes because it is align with science. I prefer to be neutral.

there is another study that proof whale ancestor do work with their legs. so funny to be true

JackBizzle:
Can an unconscious person hallucinate. I believe that i have hallucinated while being unconscious for a surgery. However, a christian doctor here said that it was impossible.

So, can an unconscious person hallucinate? Or better can a person in a coma hallucinate?

yea op the brain is still functioning. unless the brain die. even some group or scientist proof consciousness can exist for few minutes after the brain die. which means hallucinations is possible

Question (Q): Are there any threats to the Earth in 2012? Many Internet websites say the world will end in December 2012.

Answer (A):The world will not end in 2012. Our planet has been getting along just fine for more than 4 billion years, and credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012.

Q: What is the origin of the prediction that the world will end in2012?

A:The story started with claims that Nibiru, a supposed planet discovered by the Sumerians, is headed toward Earth. This catastrophe was initially predicted for May 2003, but when nothing happened the doomsday date was moved forward to December 2012 and linked to the end of one of the cycles in the ancient Mayan calendar at the winter solstice in 2012 - hence the predicted doomsday date of December 21, 2012.

Q: Does the Mayan calendar end in December 2012?

A: Just as the calendar you have on your kitchen wall does not cease to exist after December 31, the Mayan calendar does not cease to exist on December 21, 2012. This date is the end of the Mayan long-count period but then -just as your calendar begins again on January 1 - another long-count period begins for the Mayan calendar.

Q: Is NASA predicting a "total blackout" of Earth on Dec. 23 to Dec. 25?

A: Absolutely not. Neither NASA nor any other scientific organization is predicting such a blackout. The false reports on this issue claim that some sort of"alignment of the Universe" will cause a blackout. There is no such alignment (see next question). Some versions of this rumor cite an emergency preparedness message from NASA administrator Charles Bolden. This is simply a message encouraging people to be prepared for emergencies, recorded as part of a wider government preparedness campaign. It never mentions a blackout.

Q: Could planets align in a way that impacts Earth?

A: There are no planetary alignments in the next few decades and even if these alignments were to occur, their effects on the Earth would be negligible. One major alignment occurred in 1962, for example, and two others happened during 1982 and 2000. Each December the Earth and sun align with the approximate center of the Milky Way Galaxy but that is an annual event of no consequence.

Q: Is there a planet or brown dwarf called Nibiru or Planet X or Eris that is approaching the Earth and threatening our planet with widespread destruction?

A:Nibiru and other stories about wayward planets are an Internet hoax. There is no factual basis for these claims. If Nibiru or Planet X were real and headed for an encounter with the Earth in 2012, astronomers would have been tracking it for at least the past decade, and it would be visible by now to the naked eye. Obviously, it does not exist. Eris is real, but it is a dwarf planet similar to Pluto that will remain in the outer solar system; the closest it can come to Earth is about 4 billion miles.

Q: What is the polar shift theory? Is it true that the Earth's crust does a 180-degree rotation around the core in a matter of days if not hours?

A:A reversal in the rotation of Earth is impossible. There are slow movements of the continents (for example Antarctica was near the equator hundreds of millions of years ago), but that is irrelevant to claims of reversal of the rotational poles. However, many of the disaster websites pull a bait-and-switch to fool people. They claim a relationship between the rotation and the magnetic polarity of Earth, which does change irregularly, with a magnetic reversal taking place every 400,000 years on average. As far as we know, such a magnetic reversal doesn't cause any harm to life on Earth. Scientists believe a magnetic reversal is very unlikely to happen in the next few millennia.› More about polar shift.

Q: Is the Earth in danger of being hit by a meteor in 2012?

A:The Earth has always been subject to impacts by comets and asteroids, although big hits are very rare. The last big impact was 65 million years ago, and that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs. Today NASA astronomers are carrying out a survey called the Space guard Survey to find any large near-Earth asteroids long before they hit. We have already determined that there are no threatening asteroids as large as the one that killed the dinosaurs. All this work is done openly with the discoveries posted every day on the NASA Near-Earth Object Program Office website, so you can see for yourself that nothing is predicted to hit in 2012

.Q: How do NASA scientists feel about claims of the world ending in2012?

A: For any claims of disaster or dramatic changes in 2012, where is the science? Where is the evidence? There is none, and for all the fictional assertions, whether they are made in books, movies, documentaries or over the Internet,we cannot change that simple fact. There is no credible evidence for any of the assertions made in support of unusual events taking place in December 2012.› Why you need not fear a supernova› About super volcanoes

Q: Is there a danger from giant solar storms predicted for 2012?

A:Solar activity has a regular cycle,with peaks approximately every 11 years. Near these activity peaks, solar flares can cause some interruption of satellite communications, although engineers are learning how to build electronics that are protected against most solar storms. But there is no special risk associated with 2012. The next solar maximum will occur in the 2012-2014 time frame and is predicted to be an average solar cycle, no different than previous cycles throughout history.

Do you think this world will ever end? be rational and religious in your answer.

Ranchhoddas:
Help me with a list of scientists that have rejected the big bang.

sir Fred hoyle. more famous than any of the name i can mention .you can read about him

onyenze123:
Discovery is a gradual and steady process. That they don't understand it today doesn't mean they can't discover it tomorrow. If you know anything about scientific methodology, you won't be saying Scientists contradict themselves. There is sth called hypothesis, go and study.

Nature can be understand. All it takes is research and finance.

yes I agree with you discovery is a gradual process. I will not dispute it.

but scratch these.

1 tell me scientific theory that those not required further research because the truth has been known?

2 tell me any scientific discovery that do not contains an element of error?

3 tell me any scientific discovery that all scientists fully agree with?

if no, then you lost a point here. even NASA will say no discovery is absolute.

science methodology contain of four major area. from observation to hypothesis (intelligence guess) to experimentation and lastly conclusion.

hope you will know I am abreast with science methodology now.

onyenze123:
A quick one: Do you know it was once believed that Lightening and Thunder ( Which is a natural phenomenon) was caused by Gods? If you check history you will see some Gods bearing the "god of lightening and thunder". This continued for years until science made us to understand that lightening is an electrical energy discharge and thunder is the accompanying sound.

Now Mister imagine flying to New York from Nigeria without meteorological data, how is that journey gonna be?

Or you gonna put your faith in God this time around?

I agree Science doesn't have all the answers but the positive is they are constantly researching thereby advancing Humanity

yes a good point there.

. But surprisingly, scientists still don't fully understand how the initial spark forms that generates such powerful lightning. and no research yet has ever explained that. nature can't be understand, and that is why they always contradict themselves. may be scientists will take it as a fact some day.


I will never underrate science. science had made a lot of progress that has help humanity. at least from the days of abacus to modern day computer. kudos to them.


may be one day science will develop a drug that can cure laziness , make you laugh when you are sad and so on.

onyenze123:
Subjective view? Exactly. Can we now agree religion is not objective (since there is no concrete proof) but subjective (only by faith)?

FYI: I believe in God, not Yahweh, Vinshu, Buddha, Mohammed. I believe in one God who is the source of all energy (infinite energy) and eternal consciousness. It is only a believe without definite proof for now but in do hope in no distant time, Quantum physics will explain it.

science and technology can't explain nature.

that is what scientists do not accept. the more they they try, the more they get confused.

big bang theory has been rejected by many scientists now likewise evolution.

I will end here with a quote. "little knowledge of science makes you an atheist; in-depth knowledge of science makes you believe in God”.

correctguy101:
Okay,
Olodumare was mentioned by you as 'the one who owns the container' right?

Otem told you, Olodumare created some people but he said not all.
and that God is within even the creation of the gods for all is God.

You can give all the reasons and examples why you think Olodumare is the universal God same way a Jew will give mighty reasons why Yahweh is the universal God, same way a musulman will give many interesting reasons why Allah is the universal God. But fact remains that non is for what Olodumare is to you and any adherent of the IFA is the same thing Yahweh represents to a Jew and the same thing Allah is to a Muslim.
Hope you get where I'm going with this?

Your assertion that IFA isn't a Yoruba only belief, that other races practice it helps not for I personally know many Nigerians who practice Judaism and other foreign religious ideologies.
Whatever anyone practice remains what they've been exposed to. For at birth, we can be likened to atheists, for then, we know no God we only learn as we grow from our society, shikena.

Your not agreeing that God is Energy won't change the fact. If you know a little about the theory of everything and like I said when you read any religious book have energy at the back of your mind, you'll understand.
Mostly, if you've intentionally left your body before and vibrated higher than your normal body frequency, you'll understand perfectly.

you are actually not following me .

for the sake of time this are my point.

1 God is unique and absolute

2 energy has source therefore it eliminate the attribute of nothing

3 space and time predate big bang theory. the concept of energy

4 the God of Yoruba olodumare is universal . it can be called any name of your interest so far it does not corrupt the entity of his supremacy.. I further sight example why I prefer the word olodumare instead of God . because God in English word is corrupted. If you know of any name you can call him you are free to do. just ensure it can't be corrupted.


No where do I say IFA isn't a Yoruba only believe. I made my point clear. IFA is just a tool of enlightenment that can be study by anybody. no matter your faith .,race and colour. you can learn it and still not practise it.

go back to my post again to fact proof.

I do attend yoga class enough. so when it comes to energy principle. I am well familiar.

correctguy101:
lols, I personally followed up on you and Otem4Atum's dialogue.

Bro you don't understand what Otem4Atum is saying but you just went ahead and continued counting or recounting all the attributes you were told of Olodumare.

Get your fact straight. Olodumare represents the Yoruba Almighty exactly as Yahweh represents Jewish Almighty.

But the Crux of the topic is this. Neither is the Almighty alone. All together as Otem4Atum summed it up makes up the Almighty.

Minus anything and you're talking about something or someone else, not the Almighty.

All is Energy, different yes, diffused or not.
Even you and that your house or car are all energy but condensed separately and differently.

There's a way you'll vibrate yourself if you know how, you'll feel the current in you like say electric dey plugged for your bum.
You don even vibrate comot before and experience the speed your soul can travel?

I wish I learn enough to use it to put gold for pocket lols.

I repeat, if you want to understand what Otem4Atum was explaining, think of everything as light waves and electric. Other talks are just other people's experience even all this Otem4Atum is saying here. But try vibrate yourself and get your own experience and keep it, you could share with people if you want to be labeled mad for people seem set to leave their head in between their legs.

Lemme add that God is everything and everything is God.
God is not all powerful because someone thinks so. neither is he weak.
Powerful, weakness and any other attributes you think up are all our construct in this dimension.
In reality, up is down while down is up , mathematically both don't exist if we're talking about God. No good and no bad. Everything just is. Simple.

Enjoy your human time and self that's the reason you came here.
Hurricane and volcanoes can be bad to man but wetin concern nature, you want make nature no do im tin again because of some tiny people wey no even know themselves? lols.

bro, I doubt you are really following as you indicate.

if you do , you will realised I don't reject my self being an energy neither I am novice of your illustrations.

I only reject the idea you have been indoctrinated to that God is energy and also give reasons why olodumare is the universal God and not limited to Yoruba.

I substantiate my evidence by backing it with the attributes and definition of olodumare


go back to my post again! I indicate why God can't be energy. for learning sake read it and bring out flaws in it.

so we can enlightened ourselves here.

Your shot at sarcasm even makes sarcasm look like a bad thing. Go and have fun baba, I've spent enough time with you Mr Emotional Intelligence. Lmao!

lol . you are too funny. no need to quarrel bro. there is much to life than unwarranted insult.

don't forget to pm me about the therapy. it is much important.

Now, for the sake of the readers, I'm gonna make this clear... Not for your sake vaxx, 'cause you're a waste of time really. So I won't waste my time schooling you, and I believe you even enjoy being ignorant so I'm not gonna spoil the fun bro (Ignorance is bliss they say)..

But for the sake of the readers, here's the drill:

It all boils down to this post:



In response to this, I wrote:



He replied:

(Emphasis added)

Due to vaxx suffering an acute memory loss at this point, he forgets that it all started here, where was quoting:

(Emphasis added)

So seeing his condition, it was necessary to install some knowledge into that under-exposed brain (you don't have to thank me vaxx, what are friends for?) So I wrote:



But hey, my bad, I forgot I was dealing with an under-exposed mind with an obviously low IQ and stark ignorance, I would have known that writings as simple as this cannot be written from scratch in instantaneous response to his silly inquiries (according to him) so as a default setting, his brain (which of course is on auto-pilot) screams “copy and paste!”.

If vaxx's brain sees this little piece of writing here as copy and paste (can't even prove it but believes it anywhere, sounds familiar? ) what would he call it when it starts coming in with more loaded package, clearing and forwarding You're a joke vaxx. Lol

Readers,

Research more on social evolution of homo sapiens to avoid being so clueless as vaxx is right now and thank me later.

Cheers.

so it is not only lack of emotional intelligence. you also have low self esteem. anyway they both share similar symptoms.

you are so desperate to vindicate yourself out of mess you have caused. this wouldn't help. people who are not smart like you but intelligent will scrutinized the page and therefore put you in your position as the smartest dude .....I hope I am not pressing on your nerves again, if I do am sorry.



I really like it talking to a smart dude like you

in fact you have won the debate, you are really smart indeed. look out how you exposed my ignorance by replying me with the opposite side of the question .
you even add what I do not request... smart you are indeed. you also back it up with already copy work that does not tally.

at this stage may (God) flying spaghetti monster never stop enlarging your wisdom.

So, can we Pastafarian now enjoy our thread with further ignorant intrusion please? Thank you

lol. I am not in boxing gloves. anyway i understand. it is the symptoms. am sorry dear for pressng on your nerves. feel free to pm me for the therapy.

I don't have a problems copy/pasting from anonymous as you did. but make sure it tally with the questions next time.

you are smart dude for being a pasterfarian may FSM be with you Amen

as an online friend I offer to give you the therapy free

Reiyvinn:
Firstly, if your IQ is as low as believing that something as small as that piece must be copy and paste, then you're not even worth a second of my time. (Copy the whole thing and paste it in your Google search box to see if a similar result comes up)

Secondly, I'll quote you from two different comments:

Here:



The above question is silly on many levels because I don't even know where you heard that a theory MUST BE “followed”. Who doesn't recognize a religion-inspired rhetoric? So you got the answer based on the silliness exhibited in what you wrote up there.

Here again:



From assuming that every good or explanatory point must be copied and pasted to one who thinks scientists take theory as a think to be “followed” without choice and now to one who doesn't even know what the word “relate” means?

I don't even know where to start with you, it's even laughable to say the least.

I don't reply insult. stick to your knowledge. na only you sabi? we don't need to throw jabs at each other before we make point.

what you copy/paste there does not tally with my questions.

if you could not answer basic question. how will you answer tough ones?

I repeat. it is copy and paste. and you know within your heart.

pls only reply when you are ready to give fact base on your personal logic and not what one Mr anonymous has written. No insult pls be civil in typing.

let me repeat again here. social evolution is a theory by whom? do I have a choice? what is good to you?

chemystery:
You are a pagan! - according to Christian or Muslim definition. But you don't need to worry. So long as there is an atheists by the corner, you are their best friend

thanks bro

Reiyvinn:
Social evolution refers to man's changes in the way he relates with his environment.

Man, like every other animal, is very territorial in nature, thus, it must have had some sort of hostility towards “intruders” at the earlier stage. However, as time went by, being a social being, humans must have began developing fundness and thus easily became a community due to the complexity of the human brain. This change could have easily bred many types of relational attributes like “love” “lust” “do unto me what you want done to you” “morals” etc. To claim that morality cannot exist outside religion is absolutely unfounded when reverse could be the case.

in fact, i am not getting u. I never made mention of this two word you include in your copy and paste answer. morality and religion.

I only ask you. do I need to be good before I relate with my environment? and why should I do good.
