since monday i am mostly indoors i pray this whole thing ends.looking in deep into my most sincere mind i have come to realise that in this life you are truly on your own its all about you ,how you use and your brain(common sense) and how you relate with your creator no pastor , imam or the so called spiritualist can help you.

i cant believe that just because of one microscopic organism civilisation is threatened the whole world has shut down throughout my 27 years on earth i have never seen such it is so scary no nation was speared even the most powerful men looked like nothing i am even more shocked that the greatest men are even scared.
To my greatest suprise even the great religious monuments have shut down Mecca is empty, Jerusalem is empty, great churches have closed down God forbid what if corona lingers for another ten years will this relgious centers ever function .what of the miracle working pastors ,imams babalawos why cant they go and lay hands on the sick and heal them as they do and tv what is going on! if this lingers further the world will economies will sink into another recession right now we are looking up to just science unbelievable!

i am no athiest but i now believe the true God is not truly represented as we think its all business probably the real christians died during the days of the apostle (paul,timothy , luke and the rest the ones we have now is just scam extorting the gullible.

i rest my case. now it is oyo (on your own)use your head.

cheers

(1) Prayer grounds and places of worship would be filled to the brim by all looking for the divine healing power.
(2) Governments around the world won't close down religious gatherings. In fact, they would urge and compel everyone to go to prayer grounds for healing.
(3) The services of clergy would have been demanded by doctors and scientists to contain the virus, and heal those who are in the hospital.
(4) The virus should have been a thing of the past due to divine intervention spurred by the prayers of believers.
(5) Pastors would have prophesied about the virus. Even pastors, psychics, imams etc. didn't see this coming.
(6) Prayer grounds would never be shut down.
(7) We might argue that God could have prevented this in the first place if He wanted to.
(8 ) There would be multiple cases of testimonies (with proof) of those who have been healed of the virus by prayer and faith.

(1) There would social distancing to protect ourselves.
(2) Churches, Mosques, etc. would be closed down.
(3) Clergymen aren't healing the sick in hospitals but are in self-isolation.
(4) Governments are listening to scientific report instead of clergymen.
(5) Those who have contracted the virus are taken to the hospital instead of churches, mosques, prayer mountain etc.
(6) Governments and hospitals aren't earnestly seeking the services of holy men. In fact, they are not trying.
(7) So far, there isn't a single confirmed case of someone being healed by prayer and faith from the virus

I totally disagree with you on that of religious bodies. They are only complying with the fg strict orders to sit at home, which is normal. Cos the Bible says to obey all that are in Authority. So if they flout govt orders, even God will not be happy with them.
On a good day, if given the chance, some men of God will not be moved and will still gather crowd and nothing will happen. I'm telling you.

During Ebola period, one of my pastors gave a testimony of how a man of God dared a scientist to pour an Ebola infested sample in his palm. He did and within seconds, they checked with a microscope and all the virus in that sample were dead. That is the power of God and its still very much potent and active in our midst today if we can be allowed to demonstrate it.

LordKO:
Welcome to the reality. The concept of the sole creator of the universe as propagators and practioners of religion has held/projected over the centuries is faulty. Atheists don't have better understanding either.

The sole creator of the universe is just. He doesn't intervene in human beings minute activities and he doesn't expect prayers/praises from human beings. Everything human beings need to exist independent of his minute intervention, he's already made them available - they're obtainable from self and from others (dead or alive), directly or indirectly.

The only way to reverence him remains through acts of goodness towards fellow human beings. Of course, absoluteness is of him not human beings.

viccipedia:
this is a good idea, but I’m afraid you’re quite far away from reality.

LordKO:



Let me know how you arrived at the assertion that I'm quite far away from reality. . . . As an authority in what sphere(s) of life?

viccipedia:
Because true reality doesn’t see one or sole creator or God! True reality sees and abundance of gods as well as abundance of belief systems. What you stated is your own belief system, not reality.
As for authority, common sense thinking is not as easy as it’s mentioned.

LordKO:



Of course, I don't expect a mentally parochial element to see reality of a sole creator of the universe. As for "abundance of gods/human beings (dead or alive)" I summed it up with the following statement in that post "Everything human beings need to exist independent of his minute intervention, he's already made them available - they're obtainable from self and from others (dead or alive), directly or indirectly."

Common sense isn't common.

My final reply to you.

The outbreak of the virus should show you the inefficacy and inadequacy of religious gods, and it should make you ask if you haven't been lied to by your clergymen and holy books. As I have always said, despite the great noise about God's great power and existence, events will also occur and proceed as you would expect if there were no god.

CASE ONE
If any abrahamic God existed, and that God is powerful as the corresponding holy book purports, we would expect the follow:


CASE TWO
If God doesn't exists, religion is a lie, and we are on our own to solve our problems, here is what we would expect:

Looking at both cases, tell me which one fits your observable reality.

Hello, i love your point of view but you are wrong at many angle which is based on the limitation of data and information you have acquired....

May not say more than this though
Thanks

Hmmmmmmmmmmm
Good points bro but am always skeptical when it comes to religion.
It's a very sensitive topic.
I am neither a true believer nor atheist.
I am just floating or should i say drifting.

AfroKnight:


No scientist would deliberately infect a human being just because of a debate or dare. They wouldn’t even test a vaccine on humans without testing on other species, much less infecting a human being with a deadly virus. Do you know the legal implications?

You shouldn’t have believed that pastor.

Jewessgratitudd:


It was a challenge the man of God asked for.
Well I do believe in the power of God demonstrated by His anointed.
