olugabbie:It's largely a joint development by many countries with Israel among, and Israel mostly re-configure theirs to fit the type of war they fight. Also, when it comes to Battle management systems and autonomous arms, Israel have one of the best companies for that - Raphael systems, Elbit and others. And for tanks, have you heard of Merkava tanks and Amar APCs, these are fully Israeli made as the American tanks are vulnerable for their own type of warfare. Then, Russia truly have one of the best air defense systems. Doesn't mean that other countries are relaxed, especially with the collaboration of US, Europe and Israel 1 Like |

Ibrahimmrfish:You are right that Israel lost the asymmetric warfare to Hezbollah. It was an ASYMMETRIC WARFARE, looking for enemies among civilians. It is the most difficult situation for the attacker as attack can come from any direction in a residential area, and as we've seen so far with the Gazans, a retaliatory strike will lead to civilian casualties. But they don't take such chances with Hamas, though they still give warning strikes (which is still unfair, as the enemy could easily use the warning to take cover elsewhere), yet we see a lot of civilian casualties |

LordReed:Seem I should be the one to claim that you nitpick your way through the various flood myths as you seem to have picked those which are well diverged from the rest. Let me post some flood stories and see why I gave my explanation for such similarities Greek: Zeus sent a flood to destroy the men of the Bronze Age. Prometheus advised his son Deucalion to build a chest. All other men perished except for a few who escaped to high mountains. The mountains in Thessaly were parted, and all the world beyond the Isthmus and Peloponnese was overwhelmed. Deucalion and his wife Pyrrha (daughter of Epimetheus and Pandora), after floating in the chest for nine days and nights, landed on Parnassus. When the rains ceased, he sacrificed to Zeus, the God of Escape. At the bidding of Zeus, he threw stones over his head; they became men, and the stones which Pyrrha threw became women. That is why people are called laoi, from laas, "a stone." [Apollodorus, 1.7.2] The first race of[b] people was completely destroyed[/b] because they were exceedingly wicked. The fountains of the deep opened, the rain fell in torrents, and the rivers and seas rose to cover the earth, killing all of them. Deucalion survived due to his prudence and piety and linked the first and second race of men. Onto a great ark he loaded his wives and children and all animals. The animals came to him, and by God's help, remained friendly for the duration of the flood. The flood waters escaped down a chasm opened in Hierapolis. Roman: Jupiter, angered at the evil ways of humanity, resolved to destroy it. He was about to set the earth to burning, but considered that that might set heaven itself afire, so he decided to flood the earth instead. With Neptune's help, he caused storm and earthquake to flood everything but the summit of Parnassus, where[b] Deucalion and his wife Pyrrha came by boat and found refuge[/b]. Recognizing their piety, Jupiter let them live and withdrew the flood. Deucalion and Pyrrha, at the advice of an oracle, repopulated the world by throwing "your mother's bones" (stones) behind them; each stone became a person. [Ovid, book 1] Celtic: Heaven and Earth were great giants, and Heaven lay upon the Earth so that their children were crowded between them, and the children and their mother were unhappy in the darkness. The boldest of the sons led his brothers in cutting up Heaven into many pieces. From his skull they made the firmament. His spilling blood caused a great flood which killed all humans except a[b] single pair, who were saved in a ship made by a beneficent Titan[/b]. The waters settled in hollows to become the oceans. The son who led in the mutilation of Heaven was a Titan and became their king, but the Titans and gods hated each other, and the king titan was driven from his throne by his son, who was born a god. That Titan at last went to the land of the departed. The Titan who built the ship, whom some consider to be the same as the king Titan, went there also. Welsh: [/b]The lake of Llion burst, [b]flooding all lands. Dwyfan and Dwyfach escaped in a mastless ship with pairs of every sort of living creature. They[b] landed in Prydain (Britain) and repopulated the world[/b] Lithuanian: From his heavenly window, the[b] supreme god Pramzimas saw nothing but war and injustice among mankind[/b]. He sent two giants, Wandu and Wejas (water and wind), to destroy earth. After twenty days and nights, little was left. Pramzimas looked to see the progress. He happened to be eating nuts at the time, and he threw down the shells. One happened to land on the peak of the tallest mountain, where some people and animals had sought refuge. Everybody climbed in and survived the flood floating in the nutshell. God's wrath abated, he ordered the wind and water to abate. The people dispersed, except for one elderly couple who stayed where they landed. To comfort them, God sent the rainbow and advised them to jump over the bones of the earth nine times. They did so, and up sprang nine other couples, from which the nine Lithuanian tribes descended Transylvanian Gypsy: Men once lived forever and knew no troubles. The earth brought forth fine fruits, flesh grew on trees, and milk and wine flowed in many rivers. One day, and old man came to the country and asked for a night's lodging, which a couple gave him in their cottage. When he departed the next day, he said he would return in nine days. He gave his host a small fish in a vessel and said he would reward the host if he did not eat the fish but returned it then. The wife thought the fish must be exceptionally good to eat, but the husband said he had promised the old man to keep it and made the woman swear not to eat it. After two days of thinking about it, though, the wife yielded to temptation and threw the fish on the hot coals. Immediately, she was struck dead by lightning, and it began to rain. The rivers started overflowing the country. On the ninth day, the old man returned and told his host[b] that all living things would be drowned[/b], but since he had kept his oath, he would be saved. The old man told the host to take a wife, gather his kinfolk, and build a boat on which to save them, animals, and seeds of trees and herbs. The man did all this. It rained a year, and the waters covered everything. After a year, the waters sank, and the people and animals disembarked. They now had to labor to gain a living, and sickness and death came also. They multiplied slowly so that many thousands of years passed before people were again as numerous as they were before the flood. Let me stop here first, I will continue later |

LordReed:Great! Just that the various volcanic legends doesn't have such similarities. Some have it being born as result of gods while there are many that didn't even include god, not to talk of sacrifices. This make sense since the eruptions were independent of themselves even when as you said, virtually all the cultures have gods in their world view. Now, comparing and contrasting, 1. All these volcano myths have similar environment 2. Majority have worship of gods 3. It would follow that worship of gods would entail sacrifice. Yet, we don't have such similarities in those stories. That is, what is common to them was not found in such legends, rather, though some few mention the eruption as the acts of gods, the differences are so wide that one can never link them at all. This is because they are local events which are independent of each other |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 5:43pm On May 06, 2021 |
LordReed: These are people whose worldview constantly revolved around the antics of gods as an explanation for natural phenomenon. It's no surprise they would include such things in their stories. Even our Nigerian cultures always mention gods and sacrifice whenever there is some calamity Fair enough. Your argument for inclusion of gods and sacrifice is plausible for all cultures which are surrounded with large bodies of water and have boat building skills. I'll get back to that later I don't know about volcanic events or tsunamis since the cultures that encounter them are not as many as those that encounter flooding. Yes, I know. But what are the similarities that you would expect to see in such events, knowing the nature of such activities? It is important that an answer should be given, as it would give a prediction that one could test with later discovery. (does the prediction of the theory match the evidence and can it be used for other similar phenomena? The type used in scientific method) |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 5:00pm On May 06, 2021 |
LordReed:Thanks But my question would be; why should we have the bolded words in a flood story? Not that those are the only anomalies in many flood stories anyway. Also, since we don't have a volcanic event across the world; what similarities should we expect from volcanic activities of different areas? Or similarities that we should expect from tsunami event? |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 5:59am On May 04, 2021 |
LordReed: Let me start with reminding you about the crux of our debate. I’ll paraphrase it as “the best explanation for the similarities found in different flood accounts of different world cultures”. Again, let me remind you of the part you seem to have refused to respond to (for the third time). What type of similarities should be found in flood account of different events (and locations); the type that we should see in armed robbery events of different locations? When the question above is answered (faithfully), then I will go ahead to address your claims point by point. I have been busy, hence have not got time to visit NL. I trust you are doing great and safe in the chaotic country (if you are in Nigeria o) |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 4:43pm On Apr 20, 2021 |
LordReed:First, this is still comparing apples and orange as I showed a methodical approach how it came from one source and others having a variant of it, with the recorded history in the Bible. While you just compared it with merely asserting that the Isrealites took the a myth (which has also been shown to not be similar in the way it was claimed). That is comparing apples and orange. Funny enough, there are no parallels which can be compared to detailed similarities found in the flood stories which should naturally not be found. I already asked you to show us the type of similarities that should be found in different flood account of different geographical places (such which should be found in different armed robbery events) You obviously skipped that part of my response |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 2:47pm On Apr 20, 2021 |
LordReed:Though I already ask you to give the type of similarities we should expect from different flood stories (a type which we should expect in different armed robbery stories), I just want to respond to the bolded, that I did that already in this thread. Starting with the Bible, the surviving families would pass the stories on to their descendants and the dispersal at Babel where every language group went their way would definitely go with such stories and continue to pass it down; though oral tradition corrupts with time, hence the differences in the stories, but accounts for the similarities that one should not expect in a typical flood story. You on the other hand compared apples with orange and my last response showed what I have maintained all along. The alleged parallels which are not are forced so as to discredit the gospels |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 2:37pm On Apr 20, 2021 |
LordReed:LoL! Your argument was wrecked by the very same article you referenced and all you can say is fallacy this and fallacy that. Bwahahahahahaha! Let's see if that's true. The article says' "Religions, by nature will have some general things in common…" then you claim that flood stories should have some general things in common. I agree with you on that. But the we should be able to know what this two things should have in common, especially, religion which have a way from BRANCHING OFF from one source. If I may ask, what should flood stories have in common (we can compare your answer with flood from news and weather reports) Notice how you skipped answering my question: Which part of what I mentioned about the Osiris myth was written after Jesus? Secondly, I maintained that the alleged parallels didn't happen in the original text. Let's see if these events are true parallels 1. Christ is the son of God the Father (and the Bible says him being the word was the agent of creation). Osiris on the other hand is among the many children of Geb who is a descendant of many ancestors leading to Ra the creator. A PARALLEL? No! But a parallel was formed such that Jesus is the son of the creator and Osiris is the son of the creator 2. Jesus came primarily to die for the sins of the world and reconcile the world to the Father. He knew about his death and that it was perpetrated by the Jews. Osiris died by the hand of Set his brother (some version claimed that it was for him to take over the throne, some claimed that he had intimacy with another who was supposed to be Set's wife). But a parallel was formed such that they both died by the hands of their enemy (though many people die by the hands of their enemies ) 3. Jesus had a bodily resurrection on this earth and appeared to his disciples, giving them instructions and having communion. Osiris dead body pieces was put together to copulate with Isis (according to some tradition) while his semen was drawn from his penis alone (according to other tradition) to copulate with Isis. The most striking part of them all is that he lived in the underworld. The question was that if he did not live on the earth, where did he copulate with Isis? But the word resurrection is now used to describe Osiris, which was never part of the myth in the first place BTW Jewish monotheism came from monolatry and before that polytheism, get your facts straight. Practiced monolatory? The Bible recorded one God in the beginning and later began to warn the Hebrews that there is no other deity except him. This and other evidence suggest that people along the way chose gods for themselves, hence, monolatrism and polytheism that you alluded to. The rightful thing for the Hebrews then was monotheism, hence the Shema given to them before their nation was settled. What facts should I get straight, Prof? To accept anti-God hypothesis or what the Bible and other scholars agree with? |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 6:19pm On Apr 17, 2021 |
LordReed: I have maintained that your analogy is like the fallacy of comparing apples and orange. One is religion which basically would have similar concepts (and some studies even showed that they mostly come from still one source, that monotheism diverged into polytheism just as there are many sects of Christianity coming from one source. Just with the difference of there being a written document which can not be altered, still proving my point anyway) while the other is about a story about an event which its type cannot be found again, but such unique story was found among different folks in various places. Your argument of them having knowledge of the boat building and sea would hold more ground if there are other stories found in various cultures which mention stuff which should be global. We don't have any of this. So, comparing apples and orange (even if I had allowed such fallacy in the first place) in order to stay a float is really funny |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 6:14pm On Apr 16, 2021 |
LordReed:I didn't make my point clear when trying to point out and emphasize 'details'. What I meant to point out was that they have a global flood and have exact details scattered among them. They all don't have ALL THE DETAILS in them but the details are fairly distributed in such stories. That is what the chart showed. This time, I guess you didn't get my point. I said that the myth of Osiris existed before the life of Jesus on earth but what is RECORDED which have what appears to resemble the life of Jesus appeared LONG AFTER Jesus' death. And many other alleged parallels (which don't meet up with the flood parallels) appear after Jesus' death. This still agree with my point that Christianity must have influenced such alleged parallelism. And I explained the 180 degrees out of phase with that of the flood, which wouldn't make your analogy follow in the first place. Funny isn't it? |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 7:06am On Apr 16, 2021 |
LordReed:I'm afraid you're not conversant with the pagan copycat theories. I like that you want to use such analogy that but it actually reinforces my point if you actually read the theories (scholarly at least). First, the parallels are not the type of parallels we get with the flood stories where you have a GLOBAL FLOOD with EXACT DETAILS which can be found in all the flood stories. These are what are referred to as PARALLELS and it is best interpreted through the Biblical lens as the survivors passing down the stories through generations, with the dispersal at Babel such that every group went with same story which would definitely get "corrupted" with time as is common with oral traditions. Now to your example, what are referred to parallels are not really parallels as skeptics only try to prove that 1. Jesus never existed 2. The gospels are fraud 3. The stories in the gospels are copied from MANY OTHER gods which are combined in the person of Jesus. So we have a 180 degrees out of phase of what you are saying. One single event found with variants in several stories against several events found in one single story. Now to your objection, there are other parallels of alleged virgin birth, son of god etc which all have no evideurnce predating Jesus but after him. And your resurrection is still a form of forcing a Christian term on his story as he did not resurrect in the sense of the word but appeared to rule the underworld. Which reinforces my point that Christianity influenced the later alleged parallels that skeptics have tried to show. Not forgetting what they really want to prove as stated above. Now, it actually get funny |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 5:04pm On Apr 15, 2021 |
LordReed:I wished you had read the link I provided as it answered your objections already. The myth is actually older than the life, death and resurrection of Jesus but the parallels did not emerge until after his death. This was what I maintained that the parallels could still be argued that it came from the life of Jesus. Hence, shared "heritage". Not funny at the end of the day |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 7:35pm On Apr 14, 2021 |
LordReed:It still reinforces my point. Having read about pagan copycat thesis, I have learned that apart from the fact that they are mostly fabrications and exaggerations, the most important thing which relate to your questions is: Often, when some sort of parallel is made between paganism and Christianity that looks legitimate (and not an extreme exaggeration or fabrication), it has been found the similar characteristic doesn’t appear in that pagan religion until long after Christianity had been established. Thus, it appears Christianity influenced the pagan religion, not the other way around https://confidenceinchrist.net/2018/05/22/is-jesus-just-a-pagan-copycat/. You may visit the page to get the full context In conclusion, there's always a true event which diverges with time or influences other ideas |

LordReed:Maybe you could do better by answering the last question. Let me put it in perspective clearly. The questions would be; Why do most of the flood story have it caused by man's transgression? Your answer: Because they have "similar environments" Why do most of the flood story have it being a result of divine destruction Your answer: Because they have "similar environments" And others which it is clear that your explanations does not just follow. It is not about you accepting mine, but yours clearly don't just follow |
Religion / Re: 7 Reasons Why The Noah’s Ark Story Is A Myth. by keppler: 10:19am On Apr 13, 2021 |
LordReed:I was supposed to add a question mark to the statement. It was a question; You don't have to answer anybody's opinion but you are free to use their opinions? I showed you a chart which shows similarities that are even theological, then you answered with this "Because they all knew about boats and transporting things by boat? I don't think it's a far fetched idea for them to have similarities due to having similar environments" What has man transgression, DIVINE destruction, bird sent out, survivors' worship have to do with your explanation? |

HellVictorinho: I already explained that there are absolute truths to which contradictory claims cannot match. When someone tells you that goats fly, you don't just say you disagree for the sake of it, rather, an absolute truth is that goats don't fly. Now, when the person insist that you can't change his mind, then you may take such statement as his personal belief (even in the face of contrary evidence). Hence, I don't just disagree with you for the sake of it, I already showed you, using analogy how your statements does not hold up. You responded at a time that THERE'S NOTHING I WOULD SAY TO CHANGE YOUR PHILOSOPHY. Thus, I called them your STATEMENTS OF FAITH Your last paragraph has nothing to do with the discussion anyway. You may have peace of mind if you can fully defend your position |

HellVictorinho: In other words, you don't agree. Do you think I can't use words like "fallacy","invalid","ignorance",etc? Again, it's not that I don't agree. I had to show why your argument fails. For example, if someone come to a conclusion that goats can fly, you won't just DISAGREE for the sake of it, would you? You would rather SHOW him how is claim fails using good reasoning which shows ABSOLUTE TRUTHS. There's no word in the dictionary that you can use to change my thoughts. You may be right. Which was why I called those things you said, STATEMENTS OF FAITH. It takes serious faith (even in the face of contrary evidence) to believe such statements. In fact, I shouldn't call it FAITH because there are contrary evidence to it. You can also accuse me of several things like budaatum but my philosophy remains unchanged.

LordReed:Sorry I was busy all this time. Alright, you've accused me of many things here and I don't know why you would do that. For a start, you said "You quote positions that have nothing to do with anything I have said then say you have justification for lumping me in? Are you listening to yourself" I gave a simple analogy. I thought you would explain from the analogy, how Person C should not see Person A as his enemy (in the context of the analogy) or simply show how it does not relate with you (maybe by showing how you coincidentally use virtually all atheistic arguments, yet should not be seen as representing atheistic worldviews) Where did I say anything about epic of Gilgamesh as an example, I never said you gave epic of Gilgamesh as an example. (simple answer? or you may go through my response again for clarity) yet you said my position is like that of those saying that the flood story of the bible is similar to epic of Gilgamesh Again, this is an accusation. I never said what you accuse me of saying. In fact, this was what I wrote keppler:My aim was to tell you that people easily see parallelism between Biblical flood and other flood stories and I had to wonder why you seem to have decide not to acknowledge such parallels, concluding that it is due to your bias of not wanting to see the Bible true. So how what I wrote implied what you accuse me of is surprising. I have never expressed such a position and in fact I expressed opposite of that Like I explained above, I did not say or implied that you expressed such position. but you are obviously incapable of interacting on an individual level As shown already, my response was on an individual level. It seem you have this statement in mind When you are ready for that may be we can discuss meanwhile no more answering you It's quite frustrating anyway since we both have our bias, and I can't be fighting a defensive battle just because my "enemy soldier" (or "ally" of my enemy army) seem to disown "his army" anytime I launch a counter attack |

Like I explained to Buda: Person A cannot use weapons known only by Army B to attack Army D and expect C (who is in army D) to not see him belonging to army B. That's exactly what I see you doing, else, I don't know why you are bent on discrediting and rejecting the Bible a priori and using same arguments used by virtually every atheists; yet, accuse me of lumping you up with the big picture whenever I make my shot |

LordReed:I believe you know that secularist believe that the Biblical story was plagiarized from epic of Gilgamesh. In fact, that is what every average Joe who has had of epic of Gilgamesh believe and the conclusion was drawn from the parallelism of the two. Just that now that such parallels are found in ALL flood stories, the interpretation seem to change (maybe with you anyway); which is just due to the bias of not wanting to see the Bible true |
