Christianity EtcRe: Albert Einstein Did Not Believe In God! by wiegraf: 2:43pm On Aug 17, 2016
Reyginus:
I agree with you but it seems you didn't get that question. Look at what I mean. A person cannot ask what created that he admits created all in one sentence. You cannot ask 'if God created everything then what created him?'. It's a very dumb question to ask.

Christianity EtcRe: Tomorrow Will Prove To Me And Atheists That Voodoo( Jass) Exist by wiegraf: 2:36pm On Aug 17, 2016
djdoxxx:
After the whole challenge....the jass-men tested their jass on themselves when I sharpened the cutlass and offered them #5,000( they were feeling I had only #3,000 with me so they asked I dropped #4,000....after a little debate on : na only 3k dey my hand...and they insisted 4k....I caught them off guard.... I offered 5k straight.....they then had no choice and started preparing all their concuction .....one of them used the 'oju olongbo jass' which is done by swallowing 7 seeds, which mustn't touch the teeth....this jass can be done in many ways....so I told them to use a method that would give no excuse which they did.....


After the strikes, this was what we experienced...



more pictures would come up



videos were very long....would find time to upload on YouTube.
maybe it didn't work because a dentist put a fake tooth in his throat?

How is this Barbaric huh God took their lives instantly

Acts 5: 5
And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things. 6 And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him.

Is it just me or isn't Seun preaching the gospel ? Thanks for reminding us what awaits the wicked /sinners in Hell . The abhorrent consequence of sin is being in Hell Fire forever .

Nihilist:
Story.

Valour in battle is clearly irrelevant when assuming hereditary titles in Westeros.

I mean Lyanna was at that meeting, and Baelish was representing his yoing lord there too. Robb had little military experience and Bran has been lord for a day.

When you factor in Joffrey and Tommen, you realise that people will automatically follow you without challenge once you have the right name.

Jon doesn't have the right name and we've been repeatedly told that bastards cant lords. In any case, before Jon came to power most of those lords expressed little regard for the Stark name.

After Jon appears to defeat the royally appointed ruler of the North, these lords all suddenly remember that they are pledged to House Stark. Curiously enough, they pledge their loyalty to a guy whose name is actually not Stark, and who legally cannot assume office anyway....and all the while, there is an actual Stark sitting IN THE SAME ROOM. grin

Mehn these guys ain't send no Starks. Even if Jon wasn't a Stark bastard, they would have invented a connection to legitimise a very clear decision to sideline the Starks anyway.
Are you saying that the fact that he had stark blood had nothing to do with his crowning? That it may have even hindered it?
Christianity EtcRe: The Pastor And The Poor by wiegraf: 9:36pm On Jul 10, 2016

Weird. The only people I see going through hell are the poor congregation. Met one Ashawo the other day that charged me extra because she needed money to complete her tithe. Said she spent in on new ankle bracelets to move her ministry forward. Her pastor even blessed it and gave her annointing oil that she will rub around her 'business'.

I've never been so shocked in my life. I said the Lord's prayer, 2 Holy Mary's , one Allahu Akbar, and zipped my pants faster than I came.
abegi, dat sister dey provide real epp. whatever d pastor gave her was fake. no fear, lucifer is in control

God does it through our brains.
My turn to be obvious?


https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_of_the_gaps

"God of the gaps" is a term used to describe observations of theological perspectives in which gaps in scientific knowledge are taken to be evidence or proof of God's existence. The term was invented by Christian theologians not to discredit theism but rather to point out the fallacy of relying on teleological arguments for God's existence.[1] Some use the phrase to refer to a form of the argument from ignorance fallacy
But actually, we're pretty close to figuring out consciousness, no juju needed.

Ultimately, the best you could do is stretch this to is "universals exist, therefore god!? ", which is quite silly. It's like saying "fatness exists. It is not physical even though physical objects exhibit it, therefore god!? ". Or "stupidity exists. It is not physical. Therefore god?!"

Rinse and repeat with all universals...
Christianity EtcRe: Atheists Come And See: The Most Powerful Argument For The Existence Of God by wiegraf: 8:25pm On Jul 10, 2016
UyiIredia:
consciousness /ˈkɒnʃəsnɪs/
noun
1. the state of being aware of and responsive to one's
surroundings.

Does that look like a physical thing? Physical things have extension in space by definition. Consciousness is not extended in space and so is not physical.
Thanks for the obvious, but please stop with the gymnastics.

How exactly does this being that is aware come to be aware? By which means? What is this being composed of? Magical fairy dust?

Read and digest the OP and get back to me. It's obvious to me you want to stubbornly cling to your atheism.
projection? confusion? but lemme help you small small. beginnig with- what in the world gives you the idea that consciousness isn't physical??
Christianity EtcRe: Atheists Come And See: The Most Powerful Argument For The Existence Of God by wiegraf: 7:48pm On Jul 10, 2016
consciousness is a 'complex physical system' in your turanci. stop confusing yourself. and even if what you assert had any weight, and it clearly doesn't, how you get from there to god!? is beyond me. you have an unholy alliance there of god of the gaps and false equivalences, among other things...

Most of the people wailing are from the..... South

Then some clowns would say tribe doesn't matter with regards to appointments

Hmmm

Good for you if you're from the south and support bubu in this particular folly, but you're not the norm. You're far from it. Just as I'm far from the norm by being a northerner appalled by it

Truth is, it matters. A lot. To a LOT of people. That is what is important here

And please, if you still insist people are being shallow, consider that we're effectively very, very different cultures forced to be bedfellows. When making policy decisions that will affect all the cultures, guess what, your culture will definitely affect it.

If you need a glaring example, just look at that grazing bill nonsense abeg...

It is not fair... Simple

Anyways, countries much better well off financially than we are, in a union which they willingly got into, can break up over somewhat similar circumstances and you expect naija to just roll along (see brexit)

Lol no

SIRcumalot:
is the tptwp same as the azor azhai?
So why can't he has taken her as a wife ?
Her bethroyal to the baratheons could have been broken for a more Powerful alliance with crowned prince
The targs have taken multiple wife before,if this was just to prove a prophecy I see no reason why it can't happen again.

Hopefully we get a full story from either the show or book
d story long small already

Tptwp is azhor ahai according to some, to others no. D legends old, so it seems like a lot is lost in translation.

As for taking a second bride, that would be near impossible. Aegon was already married to his sisters when he conquered the 6 kingdoms. Besides, which of the conquered could stand up to their new overlord?

The only other targ during their reign to have more than one wife was maegor the cruel. He's called cruel for good reason. It was also early on in their reign (he was 3rd targ king, direct son of Aegon ) and even at that, he was essentially banished from the kingdom as a prince for taking a second wife without the consent of the church or his father.

Rhaegar would never have gotten his father's approval. Their relationship was so bad at the time, a civil was expected to spring up at anytime between them. In fact, even if they had quelled Robert's rebellion successfully, there likely would have been another conflict immediately after. Rhaegar had been planning for thay

As for the church , consider Aegon The unworthy ( Not the conqueror. ) very worthy of the tag 'unworthy'. He had bastards in all 7 kingdoms. And legtimized them all on his death bed, knowing full well it would lead to war smiley

He was that much of an a$$hole, but even he didn't (more likely couldn't) take on more than one official wife. Church no go gree

better fucking o both front and back but my ish is she wasn't even missed by her so called high septon
Maybe she wasn't missing for long. They wouldn't start panicking over her whereabouts immediately

Though yeah, I do agree killing pycelle like that was a bit convulted; they could just have had him disintegrate with all the rest at the sept, ie, unless he wasn't scheduled to be at the trial (unlikely). But I guess that was personal (plus, the give a nod to the books by doing the way they did)
TV/MoviesRe: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by wiegraf:
SIRcumalot:
na I think the Lannister and the Frey are the main houses behind the red wedding.
the Frey have the twins and also you saw their army at riverrun.


hopefully we go get more screen time for rheagear and lyanna next season.
I hope Jon snow is still a child of a rape (which is against rheagear's character really)
if this was love then both lyanna and rheagear actions was selfish.
IIRC Rheagar never cared for chivalry and whatnot, not until he came across a prophecy. One that predicted that tptwp (or some hero, can't remember which) would come from the targaryen/stark line.

He took the prophecy very seriously apparently. Same prophecy probably led to his great grand papa's death at summerhall, they year he was born.

He also may have met her before he crowned her his queen of love and beauty over his wife at the now (in)famous harrenhall tourney. She may have been the knight of the laughing tree. If he did meet her then, he might have been impressed by her actions and his belief that they (as a couple) were part of the prophecy may have been fully cemented then.

Regardless, even if she weren't the knight, his actions were brought about by the prophecy.

Similar to 'hold the door' issues, with the future influencing the present in a 'closed book'. But that may be another issue

Edit: I was wrong. The prediction is the child will be a targaryen, not necessarily a targaryen/stark. Then again, it also says the song of tptwp would one of 'ice and fire'. This could still be targ(fire) and stark(ice) but meh, that may be pushing it.

I doubt his actions were guided by just his pipi, but who knows?

Obvious reasons already stated. Xtianity is generally more liberal being key.

This is a good thing. Most regular 'xtians' don't worry about it.

only you fundies care, so you can win your pissing contest against other Fundy groups, eg muslims

So in every question to an atheist God must be relevant? What sort of Logic is this? Answer the simple logical question and stop distracting yourself.
.....

I answered your question

once again, what is wrong with you? do you want me to bring out crayons to show why it so obviously depends? ie, even allowing for your baseless assumption that there are universal rules we must all follow, which is the folly the questions about god are supposed to highlight, it would still, and again - OBVIOUSLY, depend on various variables

OK then, just a little

your baseline is humanism? fine. so we put humanity first and the centre of the universe. then I could easily argue that if I saw Omar Mateen about to shoot himself before he strolled into the club it would be rather egregious of me to stop him, no?

and if you think assisted suicide is unacceptable under any condition then, asides from being heartless and/or incredibly selfish - on the level of say those who insist that abortion is wrong under any condition - you're also failing at being humanistic, which I would assume entails curbing human suffering, no?

do you really need me to go on? i thought you were the intelligent one here?

even assuming your rules hold, surely you understand there are morally grey areas, no?

or you dodging the questions deliberately?

nah, that would be beyond you

do you get that?

bros, time and again, I wonder if you're blind. clear and direct answers given to you, you turn to Arsene wenger. what is wrong with you??

I said it depends.

now, I asked you about your god for the obvious reason that you base your morals around him (imaginary as he is) , or do you not?

and you replied. if you had an objection to discussing your god, shouldn't you have raised it before you answered??
