I want to test the extent you jesus-worshippers/Ka'aba Worshippers lie to. Please write down your definition of Idolatory as practiced by Tribal Religion. |

Pagan9ja picks up a stone,carves an image out of it and says "mr stone, you are my god , you created me,you created the world. I worship you, i adore you, i bow before you. For your sake i live and i dedicate my life to you." that is idol worship |

They are those that call other thing for Help execpt God. No one can help or save execpt God. Thats why its the Greatest Sin. When he did something and you went ahead to give the thanks and Glory to one stupid idol or what God has created. |

PAGAN 9JA:First, Muslims are not ‘Ka'aba Worshippers’! We worship the only One True God, the Creator of the Universe called ‘Allah’ in Arabic. Ka'aba is just a ‘Qibla’ — a direction which all muslims face while observing their prayers. Masjid al-Haram (‘the sacred mosque’ aka ka'aba) is just a Masjid (mosque) like all other Masajid (mosques) globally though the most important of them, being the ‘first house (of worship) appointed for mankind’ -[Sura 3:96.] So ka'aba IS NOT AN IDOL but a mosque! Infact during the early days of prophet Muhammad's mission, Muslims used to face Masjid al Aqsa (‘the farthest mosque’ in Jerusalem) during their prayers. This continued until when a revelation came asking the prophet to turn his face towards the sacred mosque in Makkah: “We see the turning of thy face (for guidance) to the heavens: now shall We turn thee to a Qiblah that shall please thee. Turn then Thy face in the direction of the Sacred Mosque: Wherever ye are, turn your faces in that direction...” [Sura 2:144]. The al Aqsa mosque (in Jerusalem) to this day remains the third holiest site in Islam. First one is Masjid al Haram (the Sacred Mosque) in Makkah City and the second one is Masjid an Nabawi (the Prophet’s Mosque) in Madinah City, in Saudi Arabia. Secondly, in Islam idolatory means worshipping anyone/anything in addition to or other than Allah. Whatever is worshipped whether it be Angels, prophets (e.g Jesus or Muhammad) or saints or animals or any objects, these are all idolatory. In Islam we say La ila ha illal lah — meaning ‘there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah’. This is called Tawhid. And even if people worship Allah but set partners to Him thinking that those partners can intercede for them or worship Allah ‘through’ them or beleive that those partners share in the divinity of Allah —these are all idol worshippers! Lastly, in Islam idolatory is the only unpardonable sin in the sight of Allah: "Verily, Allah forgiveth not (the sin of) joining other gods with Him; but He forgiveth whom He pleaseth other sins than this: one who joins other gods with Allah, hath strayed far, far away (from the path)." [Sura 4:116] |

macof: smh, those who are unable to make meaning out of that are more foolish and senceless. Jesus spoke in parables to convey his message. Must i define it literally for logical atheist in nairaland to understand. Cant they use their brain to sieve the meaning. Oh, i forgot.the bible called them fools |

FOLYKAZE:And you have just commited an unknown sin. How can you compare human with God. God is incomparable. Jesus is not God and not an Intermediary between human and God. Why do u think human need intermediary before we can talk to him. Do bother to give me and unreasonable answer because we all knw that God is not Deaf, Blind for him to need an intermediary. Haba. Stop saying this. God even feel happy when you call him direct and Not through anything because even if you ask an idol worshiper they will tell you the same thing so you guys are not a step away for Babalawo. |
Re: Christians/muslims - Define "Idol Worship" - By Pagans by Nobody: 11:49am On Nov 03, 2013 |
For me, idolatory is an act of giving the worship due to the Creator of us all to any one or thing. |

I dont know where to start with you cuz first you ignorant, two you brainwashed and finally you foolish liar. You said Jesus is not God....pls what does trinity mean or what did Jesus meant when he said he and God is one? Secondly you said Jesus is not intermediary. What is the meaning of this bible verse? 1 Timothy 2:5 5 For there is one God, and one Mediator between God and man, which is the man Christ Jesus, or you dont know what mediator mean? Guy you dumb seriously. And why is Jesus mentioned in your prayer....why not directed to God as you dont need mediator? Come again with white lies.

Where does this god say i will go after my death and why 5.If there is no place why will i serve him 6. Can he die for me. 7. Can he forgive me without pouring oil on it. 8. Why i must make a representation of your god in my house 9. Why i must agree to sacrifice human to this gods 10. Why it is only your god we can kill human for to get money.. |

Divepen: Instead of u debating what idol is.... we have dictionary and wikipedia why bother asking 'mumu' questions for debate.... Finally you display your ignorance publicly and that you dont even know the surface the OP is standing. 1.What i can gain if i serve your god Yep they have told you about juicy heaven where you wont suffer. Why cant you go there by dying? 2.Wat i will lose if i did not serve your god you were feed with hell threat. We know that. 3. What has your god has in plan for my future. Your God haven't made it perfect? Why amendment and another plan for future? 4. Where does this god say i will go after my death and why Dust, heaven and hell.....the lies you were feed with. 5.If there is no place why will i serve him Because he is hungry for your worship....failure to feed him through worship will lead you to hellfire. 6. Can he die for me. Your God die? Gaddem so why spreading a dead god gospel? 7. Can he forgive me without pouring oil on it. Can you be bless without paying tithe? Who is going to forgive your God for the atrocities he caused? 8. Why i must make a representation of your god in my house Jesus status, jesus cross in necklace and the calender in your room is what? Why do you put your bible under your pillow.....why do you face/hold bible while praying? 9. Why i must agree to sacrifice human to this gods The same reason Jesus was slaughtered like animal. And a soldier of God sacrifice his daughter as burnt offering to God. 10. Why it is only your god we can kill human for to get money.. completely brainwashed. Why is that your religious leader engaged in crusade for power, money and fame? Why is your pastor making money out of people ignorance? All you dropped is still in the box of christianity. Ignorance is bad but been proud of it is stupidity. Lets see how you move ahead. 2 Likes |

Divepen: Instead of u debating what idol is.... we have dictionary and wikipedia why bother asking 'mumu' questions for debate....am nt pagan9ja. He'll reply u in his own religious belief but for now.... 1. You gain favor and help with any difficulty u face in life 2. Honestly you wouldn't lose anything just because you refuse to honor God, my God isnt hungry for worship, he doesnt command any human to worship him. All you have to do in life is to follow ur conscience and balance ur good with the evil of ur heart, if you dont you would lose everything. 3. The universe is eternal and re-occuring. Our human minds have far lower consciousness than in the afrterlife, as such only Ifa and Ori can help us understand what the future holds for us. 4. You return to him in heaven because that is your home 5. No one is forcing u to serve him, your service to God doesn't change who he is. 6. God cannot die 7. God holds no grudge, the basis for forgiveness is in the law of karma(for every good u do, good shall return to you. And any evil u do, evil shall follow u) 8. you dont have to 9. No one sacrifices humans to any god 10. No one kills humans for the gods. |

Liar liar masjid al aqsa means furthest mosque. When your prophet rode the mythical horse to al aqsa the furthest mosque was only a few miles away. Not 900 miles where the ruins of the Jewish temple stood then. Al aqsa is not at the Temple mount and has never been. Muslims always took over other religious sites and claimed them as their own. Eg Cordoba in spain, haga sofia in turkey and even indian temples. Prove me wrong. ubl6: |
