winner01: The koran disproves itself just as the bible also disproves it self with its many false prophecies, false scientific claims, false historical narratives, alternate reality and other fictitious and mythical tales. 1 Like |

dalaman:I would have quit a long time ago if it was a myth. Im probably more skeptical than most of you. Evev during the past centuries when science thought it got it right and the bible got it wrong, more findings have changed the position of science overtime to eventually confirm biblical accounts. The Bible is not a science textbook and does not attempt to explain science to us, that job is meant for scientists, but based on their findings we can judge which religion is true. So you cant possibly ask me to point out scientific findings in the bible. You can only bring the findings and lets correlate. As for man, Science has still not gotten fully where life or humans came from, maybe they'll get it in the next century. And trust me, It still wont be able to disprove the bible. You did not answer my question, i asked how your family is, your wife. |

winner01: The bible is not a scientific book so I wonder why some of you keep going down the scientific route claiming that some scientific findings can be traced to the bible. Science and religion are two very different fields, they have very little in common. Science doesn't know how life came from but as for human decent genetics has helped us a lot to trace the human tree and if we came down from only one man and one woman as the bible claims, genetic markers can help us trace it, so far it shows that humans did not come down from only one man and one woman. My family is good. The wife is doing well. 2 Likes 1 Share |

dalaman:No one goes down the scientific route to prove anything. Atheists cling to science and make it sound like its in contrast to Ordinarily, no one will even bring up science. As for man, Life came from somewhere, science cant still fully prove where. Why not relax and lets see how it goes. What dyu mean the wife? |

dalaman: This is a pertinent question - as regards to your post above - and I'll ask it for the last time . Prove that your signature does not validate evolution - a theory you have severally distanced yourself from "Religion started when man had enough intellect to form profound questions but not enough to find answers for them." |
Re: Have You Ever Just Sat And Thought About How Good God Is? by dalaman: 2:04pm On Jan 07, 2016 |
KingEbukasBlog: Some aspects of evolution are factual. I do not accept the theory completely but to deny that some aspects of it are true is to not know what you are talking about. Transfer of genetic material is true. Mutation is true. Adaptation is true, evolution is based on some of these factual principles. The theory is full of supposition and hypothesis which I find unconvincing. But the theory is more important and usefull to human beings as opposed to creationism. Drugs and vaccines have been invented using the principles of evolution. Nothing has ever been created on the principles that God created man from dust and woman from man's ribs or that God spoke plants into existence using Hebrew. |

winner01:lol... you clearly have nothing to say. this is what happen when u defend something unreal. once I understand God? lol... you see, if he was real, you wouldnt be making this statement. scientific bible has disproved the bible in so many ways... are u for real? for one, scientific findings has proven that snakes never talked, donkeys never talked and virgins dont give birth. And dont give me that supernatural bullshit cos u asked for scientific findings. besides if bring it up, u will have to prove why mohammed splitting the moon is not real.
it proves your god is a failure. his solution is not working despite all his fore knowledge. This means human stubbornness is too much for your God to handle. the problem pass am... he is obviously running out of ideas to rescue his own creation. he sounds dumb
again, the solution is not working... he is a failure. 1 Like |

cloudgoddess:You made no reasonable point except to point that God does not exist simply because people suffer. The answer remains, Man sinned and brought judgement upon himself. God never promised a world free of suffering after the fall of man, He only promised to walk with us through thick and thin if we trust in Him. I believe you may find this useful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQmLVU_nvo8 |

winner01:That wasn't my point at all actually. You are still dodging my question. Why isn't god blessing the children who need food and water, but he is blessing the people on nairaland who claim to be blessed, like OP here? How does he decide who to bless and why aren't the people who seem to need it most getting blessed? What would the children who are starving have to do to get blessed too? 1 Like |

Kay17:You wish i made such suggestions. The Bible is fixed, even throughout the years science thought it "disproved" it by asserting that the universe had no begining. It was still fixed, till science found out that there was a begining. Scientific findings confirms the truth contained in the scriptures, the scriptures is not a fill for a gap. 1 Like |

cloudgoddess:You are refusing to see my answer. "God never promised a world free of suffering, He only promised to walk with us through thick and thin if we trust in Him." God never promised a world free of hunger, poverty, pain or anything. The children and other people alike are victims of a fallen world. Look, you or anybody didnt choose to be created, but you can choose to live and have life or blame all you want. I wonder why you dont blame life for existing since you believe there is no God. As for people who are suffering, We can help them to prosper, be in good health and offer them soul prosperity. You can rise and help them rise. 1 Like |

A guy who hasnt even gained admission to uni. was calling himself a scientist simply because he copies articles from science sites and post them on nairaland science section You were quick to let me know the possible places i can get facts, just like you usually do.

winner01:sigh. you are just making up crap. 99% of biologists worldwide have already reached a concensus on evolution. WORLD WIDE. search "evolution" on pubmed and you will see thousands of independent studies from chinese, german, american, japanese scientists, supporting evolution. but you won't search it up because you are so determined to believe the false world you have created for yourself. okay, keep doing that. but stop spouting lies, its so frustrating, and an insult to the people around the world who study this stuff every day. and no we do not trust everything on the internet. there is such a thing as reputable sources. pubmed, websites from reknowned universities like harvard and princeton, national geographic, etc - these are reputable sources that all contain information in full support of evolution. or do you think they are all liars? you dont have to be a professional scientist to understand evolution (or any topic for that matter) and for you to assume that shows how childish your way of thinking is. anyone can go to a library or look at trustworthy online sources for information, and learn things. maybe you should try it some time. "Despite the overwhelming acceptance of evolution among scientists, and despite evolution’s centrality to modern biology education, virtually all national polls indicate that a strikingly large proportion of North Americans reject evolution, indicating a great disconnect between the scientific community and the largely dissenting and apparently under-informed, or misinformed, public" excerpt from a research paper by a university of syracruse student. you can substitute north americans for nigerians of course. |
