davidylan: You know what? I am appalled by the type of ignorance on display here. I could forgive you if you were a roadside mechanic, but as claimed biologist, I have just had enough. I am hereby revoking whatever science degree, diploma, or certificate that you have been previously awarded by the bible schools that you have attended. I have never ever seen anyone do so much disservice and discredit to the science and biology. PlEASE stick to learning and resolving your confessed confusions about biblical interpretations, editions and versions. You are probably more suited to such. Please stop embarrassing science by claiming to be a biologist. There might be some young future biologists who might be wowed and discouraged by the level of ignorance proudly and displayed on this forum. 2 Likes |

Negro_Ntns: BS. Read in spirit rather than in text?. Big BS. Where have I heard that before? What would have been the purpose of writing it in language since we need to read it in spirit? Why couldn't the omnipotent writer have just simply imprinted the words of the bible in our spirits, rather than wasting precious time putting on text, what should be read in spirit?. Absolute nonesense. In other words, what you are saying to us here is that the bible is faulty, misleading and contradictory because it has undergone numerous translations, and therefore no one in his right sense should take it seriously, and that we should read in spirit(using our imaginations, hallucinations and delusions) and make things things up as it suites our personal needs? This is what I think you are saying in a nutshell. And you know what? I cannot disagree with you. I always find it very very hilarious to see you guys pull out the spirit card when you run out of air. NB: Once again, I feel compelled to correct you that the bible did not have an Aramaic beginning. |

Mr_Anony: Yes I know, yawn. Much earlier I told @david I'd leave him to his folly, he's ignored me (wisely, but not for the reasons you think). Mayhaps under the pretense of being mature? Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. Well, perhaps a byproduct of being a troll, he can't claim to be mature if all his other actions scream immaturity now, can he? Anyways you, on the hand, have persisted in 'lol', 'yawn', etc, your usual shenanigans. Nothing of value maybe, school boy playground antics. I don't care per se except I get the impression you try to pass yourself off as some sort of mature adult. If you don't then you're fine, else you're being, as usual, an eediot. From here on out is even less relevant, just fun. You indulge me despite the fact I don't bother with you much anymore these days? I'm honored but I don't necessarily need that. Can't remember the last time I read a proper post of yours with any sort of serious attention, they tend to be cringe worthy displays of what it's like to be a whor.e. I've not even read your infamous "when I was an atheist" post yet, though I agree it's probably juicy. Likely featuring these elements listed below. Note they work in conjunction and overlap to produce a great synergy of disharmony and illogic unlike any other, one I now endearingly (or derisively) call; anonysm. So... Answering questions with silly questions meant to do something, not sure what. Perhaps annoy, but it genuinely might be that you think they make you look wise. Like asking me when did @david invoke the crocoduck argument earlier on. Don't you think it obvious I was aware he hadn't yet used that inane argument? This is one of the more famous anonysms. Warped logic I call 'anonylogic', containing some incredible assumptions made with remarkable single mindedness. Usually I can spot these from afar and save myself the embarrassment as they tend to start with "I put it to you that..." or "the question that follows...". Then of course you proceed to provide jumps in logic akin to equating sandwiches to unicorns. For instance, I note you ask @lb earlier on if one can believe in spirits or life after death (I forget which) without believing in god. Un-4king-believable. The selfish assumption that it's all about you. I mean, how could there be spirits without your god, hmm? We've gotten jewels like a multi-verse is not possible without god (yes, I haven't really read the thread true, but it's not hard to guess that would be the gist of your argument, see?), or being good is not possible without god, or taking a $hit is not possible without god, or ra.ping babies, genocides, aids, cancer, plagues, all suffering etc not possible without god...actually I think you like to conveniently omit the last bits. Anyways, your god seems to need show up everywhere. You also assume atheists are out to persecute you, your religions are special and thus above the law (this of course leads to their dictating laws), etc etc etc. you you you you Blatant lying, shifting positions continuously. For instance mazaje seemed to be pointing out recently you brought out someone's arguments to aid your point about life after death or something similar, said person mentioned a multi-verse. Next thing we know, you open a thread declaring the multi-verse impossible. Now now yes, like I said, I usually just skim through or skip anonyposts these days but I believe that was the gist of your thread. If not a simple guess would be that it was it's impossible for other universes to exist without god? Amiright? Lol. Not so hard to see where anonysms lead. Anyways, assuming I'm wrong, clearer examples -When it suits your case you can refute claims by showing how said claims are wrong, when it doesn't your opponent suddenly needs to go as far as providing an alternate theory. www.nairaland.com/1134332/logicboy-meets-anony-again-philosophy/11 (Look up my post @3:06, kpele, bb can't get the correct url. Let's not get into how inane and arrogant it is of you to assume you know if the future is predetermined or not. Fantastically, I believe you draw your conclusions from a story book no less!) Or here you understand what 'natural' evil is when it aids your case, the concept then becomes nonsense when it doesn't do so. I like this one particularly as it even features indignation from you, despite your knowing earlier on what natural evil entails, IN THE VERY SAME THREAD www.nairaland.com/1009338/succinctly-anony/6 (Go to my post @ 11:46 on that page) You should get the point by now you man whor.e. And probably more anonytactics which frankly you should leave in the anonyverse in your head as they're rather disgusting. Your prerogative though of course Which would you use now, 'lol' or 'yawn'? |

Mr_Anony: I agree with the foregoing description of God. I will only slightly adjust, with reference to No. 1; that God is Infinite rather than "maximally great." You see, when you say, "maximally great," you therewith suggest that there is some maximum of greatness, which God is. In reality, any maximum connotes a finite state: God is not finite: God is Infinite. |

Re: What Does It Mean To Accept Christ (for Deepsight) by plaetton: 8:07pm On Jan 24, 2013 |
Negro_Ntns: Unstable conditions occur when there is a breach in the equilibrium of any system. I am assuming that a state of inertness, or vacuum, or nothingness is the default equilibrium before the big ba.ng. We dont know in any detail, what led to the breach of this equilibrium. Its an ongoing investigation. For now , we can only speculate. So the big ban.g, rather being a beginning of existence, may only be an inflection point in the overall nature of existence. I also think that the expansion and contraction of the universe is perhaps an attempt by the system to regain its equilibrium. In other words, the motions and interactions of matter that form and maintain the physical universe are simply the results of a system in a flux, a system desperate to regain its lost equilibrium position of 14 billion or so yrs ago. |
Re: What Does It Mean To Accept Christ (for Deepsight) by NegroNtns(m): 9:48pm On Jan 24, 2013 |
well, why do you hold so much faith and convinction in a theory that has yet to be concretely and undisputably proven to be the beginning of mankind and all of universe, or as you said.....a phase in a multi-faceted long and perpetual existence? believing in the bible and its creation story is also a faith. the biblical story is practical and can be demonstrated in its truth, whereas the big b.a.ng exist as an abstract and a reproduction is impossible. i took notice of your last paragraph. this is attunement........a recalibration, reconcilliation and synchronization of a phase to an earlier form or benchmarked origin. this is an admission that something is wrong and a correction is needed to right it. but if the origin is all a speculation and unknown, then what existence of a "known" time of 14billion years ago are we correcting back to? attunement in the bible is approached differently, the outcome of it is known! |

hello Jesoul, it is nice to see you again dear:-). i am warmed up by your kind words and invitation, and oh yes, MA is still on my mind! i was in Pittsfield last year but on a touch-and-go mission, flew in and flew back out all in a 5hr assignment. |

Re: What Does It Mean To Accept Christ (for Deepsight) by Nobody: 1:16am On Jan 25, 2013 |
plaetton: I have a molecular bio textbook, it is over 1000 pages long. I have Janeways (2 copies)... practically revered as the immunologist's bible, i own a biochem textbook... over 800 pages long... NONE of the 4 mention anything like accretion. See that word is one that serious molecular biologists do not use. It is bandied around by wikipedia intellectuals like you who have no idea that the anatomy of the cell completely nullifies that idea. This is a link to the results of an "accretion" search on pubmed (The US NIH library of scientific journals) - http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed?term=accretion There are barely 3500 journals there. In contrast, over 300000 articles mention evolution... a 100 fold difference. See... before you use a term gloating that others havent heard about it... make sure you know what you are talking about. |

Logicboy03: just the same way you swallow any hateful comments towards christianity. when you live in a glass house, try not to throw stones. |
Re: What Does It Mean To Accept Christ (for Deepsight) by Nobody: 1:19am On Jan 25, 2013 |
plaetton: Ok so perhaps you can explain to use in cogent terms just exactly how that accretion gave birth to life on one out of billions of galaxies out there. Afterall we can safely assume that the same process birthed the planets so at least 2 should have the exact or almost similar conditions for life no? |
Re: What Does It Mean To Accept Christ (for Deepsight) by Nobody: 1:21am On Jan 25, 2013 |
plaetton: Oh wait... his entire theory is built on one huge assumption? And i thought christians were the only people who depended on blind faith. But wait... unstable conditions occur when there is a breach in the equilibrium of a system? So you mean a system existed BEFORE the big bang? I wonder how that system came to be... perhaps you should propound another theory to explain away that system no? Ah i got it! so you mean there was nothingness before? If that was the case then how can "nothingness" be in equilibrium? What breached that "nothingness"? Its amazing what these blind mules will believe in their desperation to kick God out of their lives. 1 Like |

plaetton: the time taken to abuse me would have been better spent making some intellectual rebuttal of my post. But of course you dont really have anything... it is the typical atheist play book... insult your opponent soon as he asks a question you have no answer to. so while you were moaning about my degrees... did you remember to think about how accretion formed the rivers on earth but VIRTUALLY NONE on any of the thousands of galaxies out there? |
