You want me to say it again? Ok.

You, luvmijeje, aided me in thinking wide to cross my t and dot my i and strengthened me and exploded my mind for which my gratitude is boundless. Thank you tons.

Gentlebuka:
Anything is possible. But just like you, i can't say whether the tales are true or not as i don't know everything

... The thing is, each person, should know what their limits are, everyone should know what for them, is off limit and/or no go areas. I usually say, if you pry and stare into darkness, be mindful that the darkness too, might just, turn round and stare back at you.

God help the one, who hasnt a light to stand up to and defy the darkness with, or if there's no one around to hand over a torchlight or candle, to help with and pronto get out of the frigging black abyss.

No, I am not a spiritist, and that's solely because my faith doesnt permit me to be such or be one. I dont do astral travel either but I do recall that I almost got drawn into self induced astra travel after messing around with literature on the subject I found in my Dad's library, but my good sense prevailed and so I didnt venture in the little known water, lmso

The above attached comment of mine from another thread is reproduced as a fyi consumption

budaatum:

A wise question!

I may see a chair in my living room, for instance, that is actually there, but in my mind see how I can use it as a table to place my food on to eat off or a ladder to climb up to reach heights as well as simply a chair to sit on; that would be an example of "seeing a real chair differently". But if I say there is a horse in my living room where there is no horse, and you and I should fly it to my village to go and marry the King's son, I'm certain you will tell me I'm hallucinating and crazy and what have I been smoking.

Or would you not?

luvmijeje:


In what way did I do that?

"Give no regard to mediums and familiar spirits;
do not seek after them, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.
(i.e. Turn ye not unto the ghosts, nor unto familiar spirits;
seek them not out, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God"
- Leviticus 19:31

"If any of you go for advice to people who consult the spirits of the dead,
I will turn against you and will no longer consider you one of My people. "
- Leviticus 20:6

Gentlebuka:


Well here you go. This is the reason why certain people who you hold in high regard for their inventions would not tell you what they secretly believe in, or the secret behind their inventions. Instead, you will hear a load of scientific crap

Gentlebuka:


I'll try to confuse you further. Whatever you imagine is real.

luvmijeje:


In what way did I do that?

budaatum:

You fid that by presenting you superior critical reasoning which helped me understand an occurrence in human language, which helped me see and strengthen my weakness which aided me to think wide and cross my t and dot my i and above all, exploded my mind.

Ref: Learn To Reason Critically

budaatum:

First, please accept this short education on scientific. It is a word derived from "sense", and means, evaluating with the senses, and is in fact a lesson Jesus taught so much and healed so many of the lack of the ability to do. There is a story for instance where he spat on mud and rubbed it in a man's eye to heal the deficiency in the man's ability to use the sense of sight. Once he healed a person who was deficient in the sense of hearing and another who was deficient in the sense that gives the ability to communicate verbally. "The eye is the lamp of the body" , he preached. "If your eye is dim so too would all your senses". Can you see how it might be said that using the senses is not crap but not using the senses is the equivalent of hallucinating or being dead even?

Note how Einstein, and Bezos, and Gates did not tell me to believe them. What they did was present me with their invention so that I can evaluate it with my own senses and pay them for the priviledge if I find their invention useful, which I definitely would not do if they had merely presented me with a belief.

How can anyine hold a person in high regard for an invention that is kept secret and hidden? Do you think one could possibly hold Einstein, or Bezos, or Bill Gates in high regard if they had kept their inventions secret? In fact, would anyone have heard of them if they kept their inventions secret? Do tell, do you hold in high regard those who's inventions are secret and hidden and that you never heard of?

Gentlebuka:

Yeah, lets wait for them to catch up.

Gentlebuka:

Please re-read my post and correct yourself. I said the knowledge behind the invention, not the invention itself

luvmijeje:




In the thread you reference, I actually got on your nerve and I didn't say anything that makes sense.

budaatum:

I now notice you did comment in the thread, but you did not get on my nerves at all and now it will seem you have matured since then and are now teaching me with your superior critical ability to think and reason for which I am eternally grateful.

luvmijeje:
Nairaland has been a blessing to me. It has been a place of growth. It has been a place of learning. It has been a place that I have been challenged by brilliant minds from all sides of the divides. It has been a place of learning what I am capable of doing. Above all it has been a place that I got to know the importance of criticsm and learn to embrace it.

Who am I today is as a result of you all willing to challenge me.

MaxInDHouse:
All you need is the wisdom to discern what happened in the Bible book of Genesis chapter 1-4. Satan lied saying "you will not REALLY die" whereas Adam and Eve died without nothing surviving their death apart from their children, they returned to dust and gone for good.
There are rebellious angels that are fighting hard to turn everyone against God, they are the ones materializing as dead people to make Adam's descendants disbelieve what God said regarding death. They want us to believe that death is just a door to another life but the truth is at death we seize to exist! Ecclesiastes 9:4-10
Thanks and God bless you!

When I return,we will discuss.

I am back now.

Let's first start by mail.

I have heard stories of people who died and were buried

but who were later seen in what lacked a concrete scientific explanation.

(1) My father told us that there was a female lecturer who died and was buried.

One day,he saw her on the road walking.

He was very surprised and the thought that came to his mind was: "So this woman did not die.So the news of her death and burial was not true"

So my father went and greeted her.

She replied "Don't you hear that I have died?"

My father did not understand her question.

He went back to the school where the woman lectured and told people about the incident.

Everybody was shocked because actually the woman was dead and buried.

This was one of the stories that my father loved telling my mother and us till his death.

(2) Also in my village,there was a man who died and was buried.

Every time his wife cooked soup and did pounded yam,

she would discover after sometime that the pounded yam(inside the mortar) was reduced.

She did not know why the pounded yam (inside a mortar and covered with pot's cover) was always less than when she left it.

And so it came to pass that one day as she was bathing,

that she heard the sound of the pot's cover banging gently against the mortar.

She immediately opened the bathroom door and went to check.

Lo and behold,she saw her husband standing with the pounded yam in his hands.

The husband ran and entered the back of the door.

She shouted and ran out the house.Her neighbors came.

But when the back of the door was looked into,

the husband was no where to be found.

(3) The grand father of my cousin was killed pursuant to a disagreement between him and his rival.

The rival cut his head open with a machetes.

Few years later,my cousin was born with an open head and a black spot in his eye.

His grand father(when alive) also had a black spot in one of his eyes.

He looked exactly like his grand dad who died a few years prior.

It was immediately concluded that his grand father was back in his family.

Please I need some explanation to these things.

Who can explain this things to me?

I even need more stories concerning what could be called Dead but yet Alive
