elvis10ten: ok lets leave insults now and face facts. wasn't noah the only righteous man as of then ? after god did that he said he won't destroy the world again, then came the new testament. do you really think if God kill people because of the statements they make many people will be alive ? list how many atheist that god killed ? Well, i believe wat ever happens on earth, God knows about it and he does what ever pleases him. |

sunex: The God we serve does not kill people just because of what they say. However, the Bible says that "By your words, you are justified (saved), by your words, you are also condemned" Matt 12:36. If you pronounce death upon yourself, God would allow it because you desired it. "Whatever you desire, when you pray believe you have recieved it and it would be yours" Mark 11:24. By that singular declaration, the Engineer or whoever activated something in the spirit. And you know what, God does not violate His Word because He said "... the word that I speak to you now, they are Spirit and life ...". If you arm-twist God with your idle talks, the devil would capitalise on them and there is little God can do as it it your desire. Someone saying God cannot sink the ship is also implying that God cannot also save it. That is his belief and God would be handicapped as that is his desire 3 Likes |

Sile12: Even if he joined as a stowaway and had been found halfway to New York, his name would have been found in the ship's manifest and log books. You don't go onboard a passenger ship without being accounted for. If the rats on the ship could be counted, they would be recorded in those log books somewhere. The Rose you're talking about was a fictional character. If you choose to believe in what never happened however, feel free to do so. People have always believed in more fantasies than what is real. |

sunex: Mr Sunex let me clear you on some things , I saw your previous post and I thought i contribute to it.. ,and I quote “For ur info., I av heard of a testified accident that occured due to the owner of a car who removed Jesus's picture frame from a passenger's sit for other people to occupy, this frame was kept in boot which also contains som crates of eggs, wen d accident occured out of the 6 passengers in d car only one person survived with injuries and the car was beyond repair, will u bliv that none of the eggs in the boot got cracked, even the picture frame of Jesus was intact.” Let me make you know something , the closest pictorial evidence of jesus face is the shroud. Of which its still disputed .. Any other picture you see is not jesus, but a human painted to depict him according to someone's image of him , but by using that picture to depict him you thereby create an idol unconsciously ,so which jesus are you worshiping? secondly, did you bother to research that testimony of the accident? there are so many scenarios to that story, and the one I heard some years back from one of the GO of a top church was that a lady was going out with her friends and her mum said “go with jesus” and the lady said jesus can stay in the booth with the crate of eggs ,then the story follows a similar ending to yours, Asides that its only normal that since someone made such a statement it angered the religious community and a divine curse was expected.. The collapse of the ship thereby added to their 2+2 to the blasphemy case. Am not disputing the fact that there is God and that he won't fail to bring down his wrath if the need be. But you need to reason from different sides cos there are so many sides to the story , with a logical explanation, Do we just close a case because we hear its an act of God? how are we going to learn as humans? One thing that u Must know is that a religious cleric or leader will only bring up cases and scenarios to defend their claims..the titanic, the car accident is also a good example, when the earthquake hit haiti, pat Robertson came out to say that the earthquake happened because of their pact with the devil the signed when they tried to gain freedom, and their present day voodoo practices was suitable to lay Claim..this sent a negative message about the country, but if you look at it in the real contex haiti actually sits on a region with a weak tetonic plate .. Which makes it prone to earthquake, castro also accused USA of using them as a test on a new weapon. So you see there are many sides to the story. Not everything is God but our own carelessness and ignorance! While we must respect God in all endeavors we need to research more as to how events in lif unfold. 2 Likes |

Fourwinds: Dude. Don't even try to play the righteousness card in this tragedy. In 1912, ships were allocated lifeboats based on their gross tonnage and NOT the number of passengers they could carry. Also, in times of disasters as such, special treatment was often given to Women and Children. The lifeboats that were launched too had to start evacuating passengers from the top decks which was occupied by the first class passengers, followed by the middle class passengers. Thus, much more people died in the lower decks cuz the flooding had gotten to an advanced stage before it was their turn to board the lifeboats, using your way of reasoning, does that mean that God saved the first class passengers cuz they were rich and let the poor die cuz they were poor?! Even the first lifeboats that were launched were nowhere close to being filled cuz people were scared of boarding the boats as the ship had not really developed a severe list like it did before it broke amidships. Some people who had been evacuated didn't want to come back cuz they were scared of the suction effect and that the remaining survivors might swamp their boats. Some rich people bribed their way into lifeboats cuz they had money but others died cuz they couldn't. Does that count as God's grace too?! I implore you not to mish mash whatever you don't understand with whatever you think you do. Think, research, learn the facts and don't always use the name of God to support mundane things or anything you can't get a grasp of. All some people have seen about the Titanic here is just the movie and probably a few Wikipedia footnotes and they believe they know everything about the ship and the disaster already. 3 Likes |

what still is the meaning of things 'beyond us'.... Na wa o..hw is trying to find out the real tragedy behind the titanic 'beyond us'. and between the term unsinkable was used in the movie adaptation...i have copy pasted links that buttress these issue..Why cant u do a lil research...even iamord pasted a quote from a link. 'The correct quote is "God Himself could not sink this ship", not ,"Not even God can sink this ship" . The quote actually comes a chapter in Walter Lord's book A NIGHT TO REMEMBER. According to Lord, the line goes back, not to the President of the White Star Line, but to an article in SHIPBUILDER magazine, which was picked up and used in other publications. http://www.snopes.com/history/ titanic/un... Times are changing and we need to be more enlightened and learn to do independent thinking...the world is moving fast and we need to at least do our best to tag along...saying things like 'its beyond human reasoning' is not doing this race any good. DECOtech: I'm talking of the point you made or tried to make when you mentioned "Nairaland and one sinner" As for human reasoning and things beyond us, all we know was that someone boasted and was shamed. I think this whole argument about who or what sank a ship 100yrs ago is a waste of profitable time. 1 Like |
