As far as i am concerned, for the mere fact that human beings have no control over life and death itself, ordinary MH17 disappearance is still a mystery upon all the technological know how, all we get are speculations and assumptions no hard concrete facts. As we know today, no science has been able to explain the mystery of sleeping and waking up. There just too many unanswered mysteries that science has waved aside due to their level of knowledge. Till today science has not been able to tell us what gives the Sun its power neither have they unravelled what lies beneath the Sun.
I feel safe to allign with the group that believes the world would end some day.
Abeg, what is mysterious in sleeping and waking up? Is your body not made up of cells that work and get tired? Are your actions not controlled by your mind? I can decide not to sleep for three days although I may get tired. I can also decide to sleep right now because I believe I need it, and programmed my mind to do so. Some people have not slept for days, it's an illness. Is hunger and thirst also a mystery? Pick up a science text book. 2 Likes |

The world as we know it will come to an end. Everything that has a beginning will surely have an end, when will the end be I don't know, but we are moving towards the end. With predictions of wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes, famine, rivers turning red, hurricanes, floods, collapse economies, the introduction of the church of Satan in the US, and the dreaded satanic Masonic 666 mark the Bible warned us against being branded on the foreheads of prisoners in the USA and the computer chip being planted in the right hand of people in the US seeking for Medicare (obama-care), not forgetting certain numbers being forcefully given to us in form of bvn numbers (which the Bible pointed out that in the last days the number of the beast will be forced on us, without it u can neither buy nor sell) is it not happening now with the introduction of the banks BVN? The good book directed us to Watch and pray for these are the last days. I'm a Christian, and from events happening all over the world, the biblical prophecies are been fulfilled. God help us. |

Pick up a science text book. So you are saying that you are the one who determines when you sleep and when you wake up right? When you go to bed and lay down to sleep, are you thr one that determines thr minute or seconds that sleep takes over you or you just lay dowm and wait for it to come. The samething in waking up, are you sayimg that you are the one who wakes yourself up at a particular time. I'm not talking of setting your alarm on.

I read the replies of many people on this thread and those threads that are related to God's existence and now I understand why the Bible tagged the atheist as fools. The fact that you've not seen something or you've not experienced it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. How can some people people say that money ritual is not real? It's like saying death itself is not real and if you think it's not, just stand on a rail road while the train is coming, you will surely understand.
Perhaps if you believe there's no charm or anything diabolical is not real then check my signature, I will just take you to a man, tell you to just slap him and just go your way then expect what follows.
So if you believe there is evil power and you know who is surely behind it then why don't you believe in the good one and the one who is behind it? Because your heart is hardened with stone you won't, anyway it's not your fault it's because something beyond you is driving you so you're helpless in this matter except you run to who can help you (Jesus).
The truth is that God will not come down again to prove to humanity that He exist because He has already done that 2018 years ago through Jesus Christ the Son, it's whether to believe or not because your belief or unbelief doesn't stop Him from being who He is. Also Satan will not come down to tell you that he exist. Both God and the Satan use the platform of man's heart to communicate their existence the only difference is that God uses persuasion method while Satan uses manipulation method.
The fact is that you can't sit on the fence in this matter, it's either you belong to God or to the devil. So there is nothing call atheist only those that are been controlled and manipulated by the force beyond them unknowingly to them thinking that they're holding on to their personal belief. It's pity that ignorance of these people is of the highest level no wonder the bible call them fools. 2 Likes |

There are two categories of people living around me. One group says that judging by the events happening these days, the world is surely and steadily moving towards its apocalypse, its breaking point, its end, its death. This group insists that these things are so strange they make the end of the world inviting so that we will be free from hearing of matters that sound stranger than fiction. These people cannot make any head or tail of nuclear wars, fathers raising children through their own daughters or mothers marrying their own sons. Naturally, these are all happening because the world is coming to an end, they insist.
Let me support them a little. Think about the numerous earthquakes, uncountable famines, incessant wars, skirmishes, civil strives, increased deaths, unspeakable acts of murder, etc., going on in many countries at the moment. All of these do not favour the continued existence of the world. You could say they are not good for the blood pressure of the world; they are certainly not good for mine either.
Just recently, I read that a beauty queen in Kenya had been sentenced to death because she had stabbed her boyfriend to death, up to twenty-five times. I want to believe, just as you do too, that a beauty queen is supposed to represent probity and be seen to be above board in everything. This is why I cannot ever be a beauty queen. Not only am I not beautiful, I am also too below board in many things, especially probity. I think that one passed me a long time ago.
What I find strange indeed is that the civil rights groups in the country were said to be up in arms against the sentence passed on the beautiful lady. I wish they could have been more up in arms against the stabbing in the first place; the young man had a right not to be killed and his blood ‘spilled everywhere’. How can anyone, let alone a beauty queen have so ungovernable a temper that s/he would stab someone twenty-five times?! What times we are living in!
Or, take another strange scenario. During the last Ekiti elections, I hear that money was a palpable factor. I hear that right on the queue while people were waiting to be allowed to vote, money was distributed to them in order to buy their votes. All I can say is why on earth was I not there to take my own share?! Seriously, can anything be stranger in the land? Is that where we have got to now? When Gov. Fayose introduced his ‘stomach infrastructure’ programme, everyone cried foul play! Now, it seems the stomach infrastructure programme has been monetised by both sides.
Add these happenings to the fact that the world is right now experiencing one of the downturns of development: global warming as a result of over-industrialisation. So now, the weather blows hot when it should be cold, and cold when it should be hot, colder when it should be cold, and hotter when it should be just hot. And all of us are helplessly watching it, not knowing whether to get the sweater, the bikini or the umbrella of a Monday morning. I hear the heat wave across the world is becoming intolerable right now. Seriously!
Taken together, one can’t quite blame those who say that things are coming to a sad end for the world. The weather has gone topsy-turvy; parents have lost control of their children; children have lost the reigns to their childhoods; beauty queens are only beautiful on the outside, and governments are no longer governing but entrenching themselves whether the people like it or not. Hold it though; let’s listen to the other side.
The other group says that strange things may be happening all right, but they are no stranger than at any other time before. They say that strange things have been happening since the beginning of time; and the ones happening now are no different. They say that the good book has said that there is nothing new under the sun.
To them, every event has its own degree of strangeness anyway. After all, when the sun first began to shine, people first ran away from it, then they worshipped it and now, we have come to depend on it. Now, it is strange when it does not shine.
This group points out that the world actually began to decay the minute it came into being, and they have a solid argument to back this up. They point out that when a baby is born, everyone around rejoices because the baby is new. Everyone also forgets that the minute the baby is born, it begins to get ‘old’, while people think it is ‘growing’. So, when the baby celebrates its birthday each year, it fails to recognise that it is celebrating its ‘decay’, the idiot. Birthdays are not recognised as ‘decay’ days (as they should) until the wrinkles begin to show and the bones begin to weaken.
The world, says this group, began to decay as soon as she was born, just like a baby. Naturally, therefore, she would show signs of wear and tear such as misuse (global warming), wrongful interactions (illegal cohabitations), accidents of birth (congenital malformations), character malformations (beauty queens not being beautiful or religious shepherds not leading), incongruous relationships (anomalous sexual orientations), etc. While these may be strange, say they, they are evidences of robust combustions taking place within a living entity or organism. They are signs that the world is alive.
Clearly, the two groups above do not deny that we are indeed living in strange times. What to make of the strangeness is what separates their thinking. Me, as usual, I am on the fence. You should try it sometimes; it is a very comfortable spot to sit when you have got a good balance and do not easily topple over. Me, I just hold on to my thoughtlessness.
Right now, I am very dispassionate about where the world is going. I care neither for its ending or its beginning for that matter. What I care about is that while the world continues, it should be meaningful for all. This means that I am not too fastidious about whether the world stays or goes but what we make of our time in it already.
This is why I fail to understand why Nigerian leaders think that their leadership is all about acquiring. I watched a little clip about President Obama talking to leaders about the futility of simply acquiring money or properties. I believe he was addressing African leaders, and in particular, Nigerian ones. He attributed such behaviour to ‘poverty of ambition’ when one fails to realise that ‘there’s only so much one can eat’, ‘only so big a house one can build,’ etc. I call it poverty of intellect.
The world may be ending or not, I don’t know. Since no one knows, I think it is safer to assume that the world may not have long to live. Our leaders should therefore begin to think of the good they can do rather than the properties they can acquire. These properties and all the Cayman Island accounts and the Swiss accounts are all unfortunately going to go under within minutes if the worst does happen.
On the other hand, if one’s resources are put to good use for mankind, there is no telling just where it might reach. Who knows, it may even help to keep the world alive. Certainly, I know it will help to make the world go round.

Don't be deceived..no one is sitting on the fence on anything, the fact that u don't beleive in something authimatically means u have made a decision for another...u don't plan to succeed, u have already planned to fail...no sitting in the fence...
The advance countries we feel all is well with at some point have all their advancement and development on the foundation of a beleif system...alk this advancement they have ddnt happen 10 or 15years ago it been on when they held their christain faith and 100% of their laws were drawn from relegious beleifs..it is only very recently liberal and free thinking rules have become the order of the day...and look at where it as brought us.
Science is not the beginning of life, science didn't make life.. it's only trying to explain....every tech advancement was built in a template, nothing came out of thing air
The world is terribly decaying because of our continuous lack of faith..and science is only trying to manage it...
Disease keep springing up with no cure, technology that can erase the entire existence of the world is in the hands of Iran, Russia and the US....hate, envy, strife, wickedness which faith in God is trying to help us eliminate is what is killing us not relegion, not faith not beleif in God....
It's sad that at every point, all we wanna do is eliminate faith in God from the equation of life....a time is coming when there would be none left....no spiritual power will end this world....it is man that will bring mother earth to its knees by the work of our hands your last sentence is 120% correct man would destroy earth!! 1 Like |

All I can say is why on earth was I not there to take my own share?! Seriously, can anything be stranger in the land? Is that where we have got to now? When Gov. Fayose introduced his ‘stomach infrastructure’ programme, everyone cried foul play! Now, it seems the stomach infrastructure programme has been monetised by both sides.
Add these happenings to the fact that the world is right now experiencing one of the downturns of development: global warming as a result of over-industrialisation. So now, the weather blows hot when it should be cold, and cold when it should be hot, colder when it should be cold, and hotter when it should be just hot. And all of us are helplessly watching it, not knowing whether to get the sweater, the bikini or the umbrella of a Monday morning. I hear the heat wave across the world is becoming intolerable right now. Seriously!
Taken together, one can’t quite blame those who say that things are coming to a sad end for the world. The weather has gone topsy-turvy; parents have lost control of their children; children have lost the reigns to their childhoods; beauty queens are only beautiful on the outside, and governments are no longer governing but entrenching themselves whether the people like it or not. Hold it though; let’s listen to the other side.
The other group says that strange things may be happening all right, but they are no stranger than at any other time before. They say that strange things have been happening since the beginning of time; and the ones happening now are no different. They say that the good book has said that there is nothing new under the sun.
To them, every event has its own degree of strangeness anyway. After all, when the sun first began to shine, people first ran away from it, then they worshipped it and now, we have come to depend on it. Now, it is strange when it does not shine.
This group points out that the world actually began to decay the minute it came into being, and they have a solid argument to back this up. They point out that when a baby is born, everyone around rejoices because the baby is new. Everyone also forgets that the minute the baby is born, it begins to get ‘old’, while people think it is ‘growing’. So, when the baby celebrates its birthday each year, it fails to recognise that it is celebrating its ‘decay’, the idiot. Birthdays are not recognised as ‘decay’ days (as they should) until the wrinkles begin to show and the bones begin to weaken.
The world, says this group, began to decay as soon as she was born, just like a baby. Naturally, therefore, she would show signs of wear and tear such as misuse (global warming), wrongful interactions (illegal cohabitations), accidents of birth (congenital malformations), character malformations (beauty queens not being beautiful or religious shepherds not leading), incongruous relationships (anomalous sexual orientations), etc. While these may be strange, say they, they are evidences of robust combustions taking place within a living entity or organism. They are signs that the world is alive.
Clearly, the two groups above do not deny that we are indeed living in strange times. What to make of the strangeness is what separates their thinking. Me, as usual, I am on the fence. You should try it sometimes; it is a very comfortable spot to sit when you have got a good balance and do not easily topple over. Me, I just hold on to my thoughtlessness.
Right now, I am very dispassionate about where the world is going. I care neither for its ending or its beginning for that matter. What I care about is that while the world continues, it should be meaningful for all. This means that I am not too fastidious about whether the world stays or goes but what we make of our time in it already.
This is why I fail to understand why Nigerian leaders think that their leadership is all about acquiring. I watched a little clip about President Obama talking to leaders about the futility of simply acquiring money or properties. I believe he was addressing African leaders, and in particular, Nigerian ones. He attributed such behaviour to ‘poverty of ambition’ when one fails to realise that ‘there’s only so much one can eat’, ‘only so big a house one can build,’ etc. I call it poverty of intellect.
The world may be ending or not, I don’t know. Since no one knows, I think it is safer to assume that the world may not have long to live. Our leaders should therefore begin to think of the good they can do rather than the properties they can acquire. These properties and all the Cayman Island accounts and the Swiss accounts are all unfortunately going to go under within minutes if the worst does happen.
On the other hand, if one’s resources are put to good use for mankind, there is no telling just where it might reach. Who knows, it may even help to keep the world alive. Certainly, I know it will help to make the world go round.

I'M BOTHERED BY THIS LEVEL OF IGNORANCE OF THE ADULTS IN OUR SOCIETY.
YEAH, OUR PARENTS MESSED UP BIG TIME BY EXTENDING LIES AND SUPERSTITION AS TRUTH TO US WHEN WE WERE AT A VULNERABLE STAGE -AS KIDS. I DON'T BLAME THEM TOO MUCH BECAUSE THEY GOT SAME FROM THEIR PARENTS AS WELL, IN A TIME WHEN SCIENCE, TECH, AND KNOWLEDGE WAS TERRIBLY LACKING IN AFRICA.
WITH EVERYTHING AROUND US TODAY WE SHOULD KNOW BETTER AND TREAT MYTHS AND FABLES AS MYTHS AND FABLES, AND NOT AS TRUTH. WE SHOULD TEACH KIDS SCIENCE AND HELP THEM DEVELOPE THE HABIT OF SEEKING KNOWLEDGE ABOUT US, THE WORLD WE LIVE, PHYSICS, THE COSMOS, PHILOSOPHY.... INSTEAD OF TELLING THEM TRASH ABOUT REVELATION, RAPTURE, A PREGNANT VIRGIN, TALKING SNAKE, AND ABOUT SEEING GRANDMA IN HEAVEN WHEN WE DIE. you sound as if science can help when it comes to matters about life in itself. firstly what did science teach brought about the universe? |

The difference between the events happening now and those happening back then is the INTERNET
Do you know how many terrible things happened back in the day that people never learnt of because they didn't have means of communication?
The whole thing is just blown out of proportion these days because of the internet and sendationalism
The world is without end people of today don't read history books and most times fail to use their brain. when they read in the bible that the Israelites were ordered to wipe out entire cities and generation they felt good about it, but even when I was a strong Christian I feel it totally wrong but now when they hear happening they think it is strange. the truth is the media has help to reduce some of the atrocities because people are careful about the backlash but in another way it keep bringing such information to us on a regular base so we tend to think it is occurring more than before |

There is no such thing as the world coming to an end...
Your world ends once you die ..
But I really wish the world would end..
This life is meaningless
I have thought about it
It's all a mirage
Vanity The book of Ecclesiastes talked about this. Life is indeed useless. Yet, in spite of all these, we are suppose to do the will of God. Work hard, and enjoy God's gift as much and long as we could. |

I don't think so cus a part of God's word says "world without end."
Generations will come, generations will go but the world will forever remain same.
Generation has come generations has gone and the world still remain same. Nothing is happening now that haven't happened before. Yeah, human beings might wipe itself out and evolve again. The earth will remain without end even Bible says so. Anytime it scatters God will come and rebuild it again and the cycle continues. 1 Like |
