tunjijones:Na dat one shock you? OK, what of the fact the Cain married from people that came out of nowhere See it here: And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch. 11 Likes |

sinkhole:1. That idea there was sold to you by your pastors and mogs, and not Jesus Christ, the Christ in Christianity. If your knowledge of Christianity comes not from you actually learning from reading the scriptures for yourself but instead from the mouths of the very Charlatans Christians were warned by Jesus that not to listen to, then I am afraid what you know is a lie. |

HealerH:You are the lazy person refusing to use your brain. What evidence do you have that 1. Atheists live an immoral lifestyle 2. That People with religion live a moral lifestyle I think the opposite of what you said is true religion is a lazy man's excuse for so many terrible things e.g The recent lynching of Deborah Yakubu was not done by atheists . It was JUSTIFIED IN THE NAME OF RELIGION Religion is the one thing that requires people to suspend their brains 24 Likes 2 Shares |

tunjijones: The Bible also said that they had other "sons and daughters". And when you add the fact that they lived very long, then you can see how many they shall and can multiply. And you can see that men who aren't even up to 80 years have had up to 12 children, who would grow up to have their own children. Meanwhile Papa Adam still dey alive and maybe still releasing new "brothers and sisters". Therefore, Cain could still be furiously killed when he was in his 225th year. It's as simple as that! |

tunjijones:Now how many years was can when he killed abel? Almost 130yrs Do you know how many generations there are in 130yrs? Adam and Eve didn't give birth to only cain and Abel. The bible never mentioned that they had only 2 sons, just that cain and abel were key studies So in 130yrs a lot of multiplication must have gone on Am not trying to convince u sha, but thinking that the bible was written in chronological order is ignorance. 2 verses of the Bible might be up to 50yrs apart |

nextstep: Obviously you imagine a God to be void of anger, pleasure, joy, sorrow etc like a robot. That's why the Bible is accurate because God made us to be like Him which is why you all say when it suits you that ''you are not a robot" |

sundaygray: I think most atheist get it all muddled up when they start tryna trace their way back through a hole and a bubble... I got to this point too, but it always ended up in my looking stupid, until I asked the question, "What is the purpose of life?" That was when lines began falling in places and the puzzles began fitting, creating a vivid picture of the dimensional realities that hold existence together. I never hated the idea of a Creator, I only had an open mind to learn 2 Likes |

zionmde:What you're saying in essence is that not everything that happened was recorded in the Bible, that we could supplement Bible? I hope you read this: For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: Revelation 22:18 KJV 9 Likes |

SmartPolician: But for those who lived before the Bible was written... do they get to go to heaven? What about those who died a year after Jesus died for their sins, but the Gospel had not reached them, because there was no telephone, and people had to trek or canoe for months, if not years to cover distances. How far? 10 Likes |

The Bible may not be true to you, same with other holy books. however if you accept your fallibility as a human and the limit of human knowledge. then you will start believing again in an intelligent , all-knowing being. whether the religions of today describe him and what he wants, will be story for another day. |

I am a Muslim. I went to Catholic Primary school and did Bible Knowledge as a compulsory subject from primary-1 to JSS-3, nobody in my set got up to me in the Exams. But, I also went to Quranic schools. So, I have a fair knowledge of the two most popular religions in Nigeria. Today, I am married to a Christian. My kids are Christians. But, mind you, I too was baptized in primary-4 at at the Catholic Church, I was baptized immediate after High School at Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministry, Onike Yaba, I was also baptized at Winners Chapel when I wanted to wed a Winner. But, I am still a Muslim who also goes to the Church. Christianity and Islam are not scam, only that Nigerians want God to do for them what they should do themselves. The difference between the two religions are the people who practice the religion. Christians are not as aggressive as Muslims when their religion is malign, but Muslims are more tolerant, that is why you see several Muslims who are married to Christians and still drive their wives to Church. Overall, I go to the Muslim, and also go to the Church. If masquerades of my community come out, I still follow them for up to 3o kilometers round a section of the city. If you think God does not exist, then you need psychiatric evaluation. 2 Likes |

sundaygray: Level dey ooo. the problem is that you were seeking level the wrong way. you were seeking it from a dead end. Christ is alive. seek him in repentance and submission on your knees. Then seek him in fasting to reveal and fill you with Holy Spirit, my brother on that level u go begin see level. |

Maynman:I do not know book. The way people hold ideas in their head are infinite and cannot be captured with soundbites or catchy words. Mine is , no one is born with religion they have to be indoctrinated > So there are different kinds of failed indoctrination, incomplete indoctrination or reversed indoctrination. I was talking about the mind and the mechanisms of it operations i.e. the capacity for fanaticism or absorbing indoctrination ideas The idea might not be one that has anything to do with God at all e.g. Nazi anti-Semitism can be learnt and the underlying beliefs just as strong as religion by a similar token the antiSemite may change their view as a person indoctrinated into Islam may switch to Christianity or not believing. 3 Likes |
