I’m not an Atheist neither am I a religious person but this man has some valid points. Just listen to the interview.
Saw it and he made sense. He insinuated that if you were born of black christian parents and ended up raised by asian buddhists,you will follow that sect. Religion is not by faith but condition. My cuzo hanged out with muslim distant cuzos and ended up in islam. Mumia begged the question of what if you were born without religion,where do you end up? Jalas was too defensive to listen. Religion does not need to be defended but morality does
Hapo sasa ndio inaanza kuwa sliperry slope.
What is morality? Morality according to whom? Why should they/he/she/it impose their will on me?
Many people will defend religion but if you ask them what they are defending they wont answer you!
I know this guy from his childhood days, alikuwa classmate WA bro pale rabai road primary school wakiishi buru ph5, what fucked him up ni religion ya wazazi Legion Maria… On Sundays walikuwa wanavaa nguo za white na msalaba kubwa wanaanza kuchant izo ngoma hadi church Yao ilikuwa kibera.
Hapo ndio alichukia mambo ya religion coz come Monday guys used to make fun of him mbaya!
Well the Bible does have dubious claims on righteousness, but what Mumia is too thick to understand is that the Bible is a riddle not a newspaper.
There is way too much symbolism in it, so the truth must be watered down for comprehension.
Personally I obey a code that mirrors stoicsm and Buddhism.
Umenikumbusha mbali.They used to pass by calif through easich,bahati and up to jogoo road towards jericho.As young rugrats,we would join in the chanting tukiruka na jisas…before we knew it ,tushafika makadara kidogo tuingie buruu mtu yangu:D
I would like to ask a question Harrison asked. If God wants us to understand him why should he use symbolism and metaphors in the Bible?? Why dont it come written in simple English with nothing too metaphorical??
:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
religion is a control tool used by the elites against the ignorant masses since time immemorial…wake up idiots. …
Because he isn’t a layman, besides these symbols being immune to changing languages they are also easily communicable.
Mumias is a cry baby, I once joined the whatsapp group and all the group did is bash Christianity… Not once did they offer a discourse on an alternative, just untasteful mockery and a bloated hubris.
The moment you remove God from the center of your worldview, everything you hold dear has no basis or foundation but hangs in thin air… What is morality if there is no moral authority, what is justice if there is no just reference to it, what is love if there is no definite Love, what is right if there is no reference to righteousness, and what is true if it is all relative…
Ok. So why do Christians think their religion is better than others?? They will bash Muslims, Hindus, Buddhis etc
You’ll have to inquire from the Christians who share your sentiments, intellectual pursuits are more to do with solution creation not theory bashing.
I am not a religious person so you will have to answer me. As I can see you cant answer this. You are just like your fellow Christians who dont know what they are defending.
Harrison Mumia has the spirit of the Antichrist. He has nothing against Kavonokya people like @poyoloko. He has nothing against those worshipping Jesus of Nyanzareth the Lord god of Poverty. He has nothing against cow worshippers of India. Yeye shida yake ni sisi tunaomwabudu mungu aishiye milele na milele
You are right, I cannot answer you since I lack the arrogance to claim I have all the answers.
But allow me to posit this, there isn’t any single path to any particular truth.
I once wanted to attend the Atheist Society meetings that used to be held at Metro Hotel. I am agnostic, somewhere in between deism and atheism. A jamaa I know mwenye had been in attendance told me not to waste my time because it was a thoroughly unintellectual forum whose only agenda is to mock Christianity; not a high philosophical society whose debates would be stimulating.
Kijana what’s so hard to understand about what he’s said? You come off as an individual who argues for the sale of arguing and not passing off intellect. What the guy is telling you is that Christians share different views, for him personally he believes that Christianity is all about providing solutions (to moral decadence) than to be pointing fingers. Of course there’ll be a few Christians who’ll see their religion as the most superior one, but won’t you find the same cases in every religion even retarded ones like Jehovah Wanyonyi’s??
I thought your god vested free will onto his creation of man. Is man so flawed to distinguish good from bad hence the tribulation that awaits him? Why test people for his conditional love? Why suffer the ‘righteous’ yet prosper the evil ones? Is he true to christians?
