jaephoenix: It's very important because your predominant thoughts which are embedded strongly in your unconscious mind (subconscious) creates your personal reality which then greatly influences the things you say and do. Unfortunately, most people are only concern with external actions and not fully conscious of how behaviour is controlled from the inside . It's for this reason, they erroneously believe their destiny is set by external circumstances beyond their control. There's a more detailed explanation in modern cognitive science of how the human brain stores information to control behaviour. Everything is not known yet but at least, the knowledge they have provided at this time, is invaluable for anyone to make use of . I expected someone like you who claim to be a medical doctor, and a self acclaimed expert scientist who know everything, to have this kind information, but it's obvious you don't. You're not current at all. And the worst part, is that, without realising it, you have been arguing blindly like a religious fanatic and superstitious person each time you insist destiny is predetermined and cannot change. Just like an ignorant theist who thinks scientific theory means belief or speculation not backed by fact because that's how a dictionary has made him understand it. If you say destiny is predetermined and cannot change, then the question you should ask yourself is, who, what has set the events that must play out in the future? Is it your personal god or a flying spaghetti monster? Are you really thinking of the things you type before you hit the submit button? Do you even understand the actual reality behind the words you have been using all along to discuss the op? You don't really understand what destiny means because you don't know how dictionaries compilers do their work and think that every dictionary entry of a word has a description that's enough to make you fully understand it all. It's very obvious from your comments here that your understanding of destiny is still influenced by what you were taught in Christianity before you became an atheist. An atheist who believes in predestination? I never seen this before. You're confused. You need to wean yourself of your past Christian indoctrination before discussing this any further. If you like focus on finding spellings mistakes in my reply and not the meat of the matter. I will come back shortly to fully address your pettiness and craziness concerning the mountain you want to make out of a mistake which has happened to everyone here and most especially you. You very much guilty of the same thing . Yours is even worse. I thought I was engaged in a conversation with an adult . SHM. You think you can throw snaky comments and veiled insults at me and get away with it? I will tell you why you need more of the medications you give to the mad people you claim consult you all the time as it appears they have infected you with their insanity. |

triplechoice: What I’m saying is if destiny was ever taken then it wont be with you, but you always have your destiny so it’s never taken. It’s always with you, you’re the one who refuse to walk in it. The enemy only distracts you from walking in your destiny but he can’t take it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlYfriDdF_g |

Dtruthspeaker: Can we not use mundane examples pls? No bodies destiny is to have a good marriage. If we’re talking spiritual things then let’s compare spiritual with spiritual. Also your personal opinion about fornicator is not the truth. Fornicators can have a good marriage. What’s the measure for your statistics? If a person even commits adultery, they can have a good marriage. I know a particular family where the man cheated and got a woman pregnant. Later he told his wife and the woman took him and the child back and they’re happy. Let’s be factual pls. Don’t speak from assumptions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlYfriDdF_g |

LottiOk: Thanks for the compliment! LoLz. Just to reiterate what jaephoenix said, there is no singular book or books for atheism. I didn't even read any atheist written book until much latter and it wasn't even about atheism. LoLz. Just open you mind to the depth and breath of knowledge available especially on the internet and learn to think critically. Don't be afraid to look into any subject but always come at it with a skeptical mind so that you don't get sucked into pitfalls of dogmatic thinking. For me it has been an interesting journey and I hope yours is too. 1 Like |

triplechoice:How does my thoughts creates 'personal reality'? Explain. Like I said, one's destiny is predetermined. Its not something you control. If you know what pre-determined mean you won't be saying this. Which information am I supposed to know? We all know the prefrontal cortex controls behavior and the link with the Limbic System gives it inputs on emotions. Thus your behavior may be controlled by anger, fear etc. But again, all these have no association with destiny. Destiny isn't controlled by any being. If you think there is, then you give the name and proof. You know the drill. If you i am using my theist knowledge to define destiny, then I'll say everyone has a destiny which the devil, demons, bad folks etc, try to steal, and make me miserable. ![]() Of course I don't take such views. Atheism is a tag. I don't know what the others think. Everything we think has to follow a logical path. And logic says destiny is predetermined. And one last. I never say I don't make spelling errors. But once I'm corrected, I take it as a lesson, and thank the person correcting me. Simple. In your case, your arrogance was still disturbing you |

LordReed:Yeah, atheism makes you take everything around you with skepticism, even your existence. I put all of my attributes into test. I put them on the spot and critically examined them bereft of bias. I put my paternity(whether my father was my biological father), my profession(whether my prescriptions were actually legit and made patients better ie if medical science was true or just trash being paraded via conspiracies) etc. They all checked out. I didn't take any of them as a given. I put my religion on the spot and it failed time after time. At first i was sad, but one has to be mentally strong to handle disappointment 1 Like |

jaephoenix:It's not about thinking too much of one's self, but that you're slow , petty and childish. If I had made that same mistake in the past then you have a case. I have used that same expression before. This is not the first time. Because you lack common sense ,you want to use one instance to compare me to your patients who obviously speak directly to you and not typing from a phone that has auto correct which can lead to this kind of thing . I usually notice the same in the comments of others here and don't see it as anything. As long I understand the person,no problem. I always try to edit my comments before and after posting. If not that I was immediately taken by another activity I would have noticed that and corrected it because I certainly know the difference between the noun ,knee and the verb ,kneel. But what about you? A very dark pot. Here below are some of your comments replete with grammatical blunders and spelling mistakes. 1. Poor grammar. Difficult to read you as you struggle most times to get your thoughts out. 2. Punctuation. Poor 3. Use of the wrong tense in the subjunctive mood. 4.. You don't know the difference between ,its and it's . 5. Using a transitive verb without a direct object. And others too. Chai! Na this olodo wan correct person? I don see sometin for Nairaland. jaephoenix: Its instead of it's. Spelling mistake. Poor expression. jaephoenix: Another error in the above. I bet you cannot spot it yourself. jaephoenix: And again, using its Instead of it's. This cannot be typing mistake. You don't know the difference. jaephoenix: Finally, ladies and gentlemen, Nairaland English language teacher using its Instead of it's everywhere in the above. How many can you spot. If you make a mistake once ,you could be forgiven. But when you keep repeating it, then something is wrong. And you want to correct others? Take your medications first Other errors too. Who can spot those? I don't want to be caught doing this kind of thing, but to put you where you belong, I just have to. I hope you rest now and know you're among the nonentities in Nigeria whenever you scream, "what is wrong with the water in Nigeria" You don't know but you think you know. People like you are a problem in any society. An atheist who doesn't know the difference between superstitious belief and fact. Predetermined by flying spaghetti monster. |

jaephoenix: With the above, it's about time you employed a private English language teacher. Today is Saturday,my day of rest. I shall be following your comments bumper to bumper in any thread on this board to highlight your poor grammar. I will put "all of your attributes to test" even "your existence" I hope you don't "take any of them as given" Your atheistic position would be put " on the spot" to see if you're "mentally strong to handle disappoinment" |

Techobeys: You are just reacting because I said the Truth which everyone has seen and voicelessly say which is that most people have bad marriages because of their fornications. And the mere fact that you said "can have a good marriage" proves that I said the Truth for you would have said "fornicators have good marriages" if it was truly so. And I know that you are person who hangs on to hopes and wishes and dreams, so definitely, you would not like my statement. |

jaephoenix:Look at this clown still talking. A spelling mistake committed just once and accidentally, which I would have corrected myself if I had seen it earlier, is now evidence of grammar inadequacies? Go and check for the meaning of grammar inadequacies so you stop embarrassing yourself. Most of what you post here is filled with grammar errors. Even this latest reply of yours contains blunders everywhere and you still want to brag. What's the meaning of "The only crack" . Do you take crack cocaine? The mushroom secondary school you attended has done you great damage. I really pity you. You don't know what's is correct grammar and what's not. Since you started posting on Nairaland you have been using the possessive pronoun ,its instead of , it's ,Mr "Grammar inadequacies" . You should worry first about improving your own inadequacies and not wasting your time about others. You put someone on the spot and not something on the spot. I highlighted that in that your gibberish post but you were blind to see the blunders . How do you put something on the spot? A dunce who doesn't know the correct way to use an idiom. Go and employ a private English language because everyone of your post is very painful to read. Don't hide behind it's "paining me" and think I would be moved by that. And who bothers about spelling mistakes here on Nairaland when a serious conversation is going on. If not that you started the nonsense, who cares? Maybe that's the only way you think you could force you points. Continue to reply again with your very bad English. You're ignored. |

Dtruthspeaker: This is hilarious. I said yes, fornicators can have a good marriage, but you still claimed I supported your opinion. How so? How did I support your opinion sir? I never supported your opinion sir, maybe if you raised a better one I’ll but I can’t support this. Fornicators can have a good marriage. No one is destined to have a bad or good marriage. People who never fornicated can have a bad marriage too so as people who fornicated can have good marriage. There’s no statistics or law forcing fornicators to have bad marriage, you’re only creating your own laws and your own truth sir. I don’t support opinion that are not broad. Make a broad opinion that aligns with the will of God and don’t reduce the word of God to mundane frivolities. Thank you, also kindly watch the video and share. I’ll appreciate your support. |
