foladara777: Your first fallacy was that doctors were not believers in the supernatural and that the ones who did were so because they grew up with "morning devotion". Secondly, if i may ask what evidence will prove witchcraft to you? Mind you, I am not an advocate of witchery. |

podosci: You're right on the low level of literacy and the high level of ignorance in Nigeria but that doesn't discredit the fact that witchcraft is real. Nigeria has technology today, yet a larger percentage use these stuffs to commit fraud. It doesn't mean technology is bad. The same manner at which some folks have decided to continuously scam the ignorant ones with fake emails, bank notification, etc. is the same manner at which some folks have decided to use religion as a veritable tool to deceive the gullible ones. Would you ban technology because people commit fraud? So even when I see visions (you can check the difference between vision and dreams), you think I should be referred to a psychiatry ward just because some people don't believe in visions? |

felixomor:Funny how u didn't respond to that earlier rebuttal... The rebuttal was outlined to make it easy to counter sef... The statistics about the other scientists were ignored and the point about religious doctors responding more to that particular survey is ignored.. As to your second point... There is a reason why in science and law unless something is proven conclusively it is not accepted as fact... U can't use the argument of population to prove the existence of witchcraft, u need physical or circumstantial evidence. So far, none of u people have been able to provide any |

Are you posting this from intense ward in yaba by the other side? Go to sango river or any shrine in Yoruba land and defecate or desecrate there without authority from Jehovah then you will know that the psychosis in your head na small one. Do not let science deceive you. Even the scientists knows that the difficulty in their quest lies in the supernatural. I wish you quick recovery shaa |

You do not know what you are talking about, There are three nodes of Human Awareness: 1. FIRST ATTENTION: Which the Spiritually weak and ignorant know. 2. SECOND ATTENTION: Which those with a little Knowledge and Strength can know. The categories of SECOND ATTENTION are: (i) TOTAL RECALL. (ii) EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION. (iii) TELEKINESIS. (iv) TELEPORTATION. (v) TRANSLATION. 3. THIRD ATTENTION: This is Unlimited Power from GOD, THE CREATOR. (vi-x) EVERLASTING LIFE. These are the Birthright of every Human. Every Human cannot acquire them, because there is a race of SPIRITUAL PREDATOR BEINGS that prey on Humans for their Spiritual Energy, that replenishes moment-by-moment, maintaining us at 1% of optimum power level. SIN enables us to prevent them from feeding on our energies; if we refrain from Sin for long enough, our Energies build up to where their theft of our energies becomes impossible to them. That is what the Devils struggle every day to prevent. SEX is about the fastest way to deplete one's Spiritual Energy: a considerable chunk of energy is yielded during sex, in order to create a new offspring. This depletion of energy takes place, even when the creation of a new offspring is clearly impossible. [See: THE FIRE FROM WITHIN, by Carlos Castaneda.] When a person makes some deal with the Devils, they ALLOW one's GOD-GIVEN ENERGY to ACCUMULATE, without "harvesting" it. The Devils do not advertise the fact that we are mostly powerless, because they "milk" us of our Birthright Energy EVERY DAY. Instead, THEY PRETEND to GIVE Humans Powers. That is a LIE. You can tell by seeing them, that they have no powers to give. That is why they keep our energies too low to enable ESP. THEY LIVE IN TERROR OF THE DAY THAT WE ALL AWAKEN TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE NOTHING BUT PARASITES, AND CAN DO NOTHING FOR US, THAT WE CANNOT DO FOR OURSELVES- IF WE ARE WORTHY. 2 Likes |

The time for me to live nairaland and become a visitor is getting close. I see seun and his minions are trying so hard to remove the existence of God or anything spiritual and make the untrained mind to second guess certain phenomenon which science itself cannot reveal. What keeps me going is, it is better to die believing in something and perhaps finding out that there is actually a spiritual dimension to life itself , than to die believing in nothing to then see that I have been a tool of the devil to distabilise humanity but by then it would have been to late. Dying an atheist and actually becoming aware after death is the worst thing that can happen to any soul. In Death, things become clearer. 4 Likes 1 Share |

felixomor:Oh... So d high incidence of religious belief among doctors is proof of the existence of God and the extremely little percentage of theists among other scientists is completely irrelevant to the question of the existence of God?.. That's done serious double standard there Plss give me any type of evidence u have... Physical, historical, circumstantial... Anything |

Acidosis:It seems you are forgetting that this analogy actually does more harm than good to your argument because I can come out say an evidence of me dreaming cannot be provided because dreams are not real, just like you also cannot provide evidence of flying witches because they are also not real. You trying to wager the reality of flying witches with the reality of dreams just goes to show how real flying witches indeed are. It's all in the head bro.

Ksslib: The problem with you folks is that you've decided not to learn beyond what your primary school teachers taught you in the name of education. Dreams are not real? That's strange. How do you define "real" and "lie" (the opposite)? So those who flood the internet with dreams, and interpretations are all liars. They only manufactured fictions and stories? Abeg I'm done here jare... tired of these nonsense talks... adds no value to me. 1 Like |

Now lemme tutor you just small ako na Uche. God gave man ability to do science but reserved some for his glory. Now if God has given man such gift, going to a doctor for cure is not bad but when the doctor applies what he knows and to no avail that is when you know that it is over to God. For example, if you have malaria and it is diagnostically confirmed that it is malaria and the doctor gives you malaria drug and the symptoms refuse going and other analyses done shows that you are fine but yet dying common sense suppose to tell you that the malaria na God go heal am or death will patronise you. Always pray for God's mercy. |

foladara777: Just look at another fallacy bolded there. Again Even among the best of the best scientists, those who believe in God stand tall.. From the founding fathers, even. Please read here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Christians_in_science_and_technology And thats just Christians alone. And i can see u didnt even read my first post before commenting. Let alone understanding it. Sad And sorry, u have to give detailed format of the type of evidence you want. Its the only way to prevent goal post shifting. 1 Like |
