You are just on your way back from work, by the traffic light, policemen approach u, the ask for your particulars, vehicle registration etc, you provide everything the ask for except a fire extinguisher, the then tell you, make we go station, you don't want to take all that trouble so you give 'em 2k, as a child of god u feel bad about and u even beg god for forgiveness, as a man who works according to god's word the bible, u don't have to do that no more According to proverbs 17 vs 8 and i quote 'A bribe works wonders in the eyes of its giver; wherever he turns he prospers'. The bribe taking policeman and u the giver are good children of God, give more bribe if u want more prosperity in your life 2 Likes 1 Share |

podosci: Religion is just a medium for narrow minded, poor people and people who are desperate gor mirracle to have a nice time. I believe human should always use science, logical reasoning and common sense to solve problem confronting humanity. we have constitutions, industrial revolution, technological advancements etc.. all these are made possible by out of the box thinking of men and not depending on some mythical fairytales written centuries ago by cave men in other to fool people under their controls. I believe in democracy, I believe in western civilization, I believe in a secular state, I believe women is equal to men, I believe people should dress any how they want, I believe human can get solutions to all problem by researching well...I believe we should live this world without thinking about some mythical heaven. I want to enjoy uninterrupted electricity, pipe born water, good roads, and all other social infrastructure. I don't believe istreali have the right to kill off Palestinian because a book writen by istreali said so.... I dont believe people should be stoned to death, I dont believe in voilence, jihad, descrimination.....I want a better society where I can do what I want 5 Likes 2 Shares |

How does that verse support BRIBERY ? In your illustration, didnt it work wonders in your eyes? |
Re: Don't Stop Giving Bribe, The Bible Supports It by Jackeeh(m): 10:37pm On Oct 16, 2014 |
Proverbs 17:8 tells you WHAT a bribe is and can accomplish. Fine. Ok. Exodus 23:8 reveals to us the COMMAND on what to do as it concerns bribery. So please @OP don't misquote or mislead. |

Balance that verse with proverbs 17v23. "the wicked take bribes secretly to pervert the way of justice " A bribe in the true meaning of d word means gift. But common usage is a gift to pervert justice. #i hope u'll make as much noise about this other verse too! |

hungryboy:when you read the bible to find fault,you will never understaf the bible. Proverb is amoung the book of solomon,solomon was talking abou how precious a gift is and it tempting to reject it even if it an idol worshipper that gave you gift it will be tempting to reject,an we all know solomon recive many gift from close friends who are pagan. @op.the verse was not even talking about bribe.it is your harden and currupted mind that see it as bribe. |

I just dey observe.... That book called Bible is sth else.... Imagine seeing things like this in a holy book... Ezekiel 23:20 : 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. _ NIV |

abdulwastecx: you're a muslim,most likely. You can never b objective on the isreal-palestine conflict. |
Re: Don't Stop Giving Bribe, The Bible Supports It by asalimpo(m): 8:18am On Oct 18, 2014 |
dastranger: what of John 3v16 inter alia? That verse u read is odd to u cuz u hav a dirty mind (like almost every1 else) else it's a blunt description of an account. |

asalimpo: from logical point of view, do u believe that Palestinian deserves what istreali is doing to them....what other justification does istreali have apart from the fairytale bible. I am objective o religion and that is why I'm no longer a religious person. religion promote violence religion promote division and discrimination religion allows cunning men to exploit gullible and narrow minded people. promote create hatred and promote meritocracy through the promotion of bias ideas The world could have been a better place without religion 1 Like |

abdulwastecx:like i said ur viewpoint is biased by ur religious affiliations. I dont even follow wats going on there. Theyve been fightg since time immemorial. One thing is certain though,palestines are aggressively militant. Isreal isnt on the offensive to oust palestine. If palestine are so innocent why dont they broker a truce and go home. Y the endless aggrssion. It's more of one nation having superior fire power than the other,not about injustce cuz both are aggressing but one has a meaner punch. |
Re: Don't Stop Giving Bribe, The Bible Supports It by abdulwastecx(m): 8:55am On Oct 18, 2014 |
asalimpo: How come you know who is more aggressive, militant of the two if you don't even follow what is going on is Gaza? istreali lives on occupy territory of palestine, hence it is natural for Palestine to want their land back, but istreali a more powerful criminal with the help western countries has better stands and economy to fight off any Palestine aggressions. I'm not taking side be the truth still remain religion is a tool for political agitation and personal gratifications.... Muslim are quilty, christians are quilty of using religion as a tool for domination and personal enrichment |
