Seriously? A picture of Jonah just chilling in the belly of the great fish like it was some luxury boat cruise?
Looks like ur the one who needs to grow up and stop reading the Bible like a childrens picture book flipping past the cute illustrations.
If youre gonna mock it at least get the story right.
The text doesnt say Jonah survived in the great fish…it wasnt a refuge; it was a tomb.
You atheists love to pretend that Jonah was just hanging out in the fish….maybe even taking a nap or two to pass the time.
Utter nonsense. Jonah prayed while he was still on the boat, as the sailors threw him overboard and he continued praying from inside the belly of the fish…until he drowned.
Read his own prayer from inside the fish:
“I called out to the Lord, out of my distress…
From the belly of Sheol I cried and you heard my voice…
The waters closed in over me to the point of death;
the flood surrounded me; seaweed was wrapped around my head;
I went down to the roots of the mountains;
the earth with its bars closed upon me forever…
Yet you brought up my life from the pit, O Lord my God.” (Jonah 2:2–6)
He prays from Sheol….the Old Testament place of the dead. He says the waters took him “to the point of death.”
Seaweed wrapped around his head and the earth barred him in forever.
Thats not a guy whos just uncomfortable….thats a man describing his own death.
So yes…..Jonah died in the belly of the great fish.
The miracle wasnt that he survived underwater for three days.
The miracle was that God raised him from the dead after the fish vomited his dead body onto dry land.
And thats exactly the sign Jesus pointed to:
“But He answered and said to them, “An evil and adulterous generation craves a sign; and so no sign will be given to it except the SIGN OF JONAH the prophet; For just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.” (Matt 12:39-40)
Jesus didnt say “as Jonah lived in the fish…”
He pointed to Jonahs death and resurrection as a sign of His own.
Jonah died. God raised him.
Jesus died. God raised Him.
Thats the parallel…not a three day aquarium stay.
The sign of Jonah isnt survival.
Its resurrection. Full stop.

@piggyvest I saved ₦2,000 every single day for one whole year on a PiggyVest Target. My goal was ₦700,000, and over time it accrued ₦41,000 in interest. When my balance got to ₦697,000, the app clearly showed my target as complete and at 100%. I trusted that information.
"Foreign Embassies Will Fund "Cultural Events" - But Never Science And Research" - Ibrahim Traoré
On October 22, 2025, Burkina Faso President Ibrahim Traoré chaired the opening ceremony of the 15th edition of the National Forum for Scientific Research and Technological Innovations (FRSIT) in Ouagadougou.
While delivering the opening address, Traoré took a moment to address young people in Burkina Faso, urging them to use social media and internet access to gain knowledge and skills to better their situation, rather than waste the opportunity by fixating solely on entertainment, which he termed a "distraction."
Traoré stated that there are foreign interests who would prefer that young people in Burkina Faso remain permanently distracted and over-entertained. He further pointed out that this can even be proven by examining the disparity between foreign funding that is available for "Culture and Entertainment" activities in Burkina Faso, versus that which is available to fund local research and development.
Do you have a similar situation in your African country?
@MTNNG Why leave loyal customers without network despite repeated complaints? Everyone here is switching to Starlink. While you're laying FiberX in areas with strong coverage, areas like Jesurobo, oko, just across Airport Road, still have ZERO service. How is this customer-first?

has anyone stopped to ask WHY students cheat? would a buddhist monk "cheat" at meditation? would an artist "cheat" at painting? no. when process and outcomes are aligned, there's no incentive to cheat. so what's happening differently at colleges? the answer is in the article:
I realized how wrong I was to refer to my son’s passion as “playing Minecraft.” “Playing” demeans the importance of it. I asked him if he thinks he is playing, and he said No. I asked how he thinks of it and he said: “learning.” I asked him to show me what he means, and for half an hour, he explained the intricacies: he watches YouTube videos, downloads mods, and uses ChatGPT to guide him in entering commands in the OS Terminal. He was so proud of what he has taught himself, and he should be.
Regrettably, for years we made him feel like Minecraft was a guilty pleasure, something he had to hide from us. I am trying my best to undo that harm. I am very explicit about my regret, why we made that mistake, and how much I trust him in choosing what he does with his time.
He is unschooled. He has no curriculum.
He explores what he wants: he starts his day with math on Khan Academy, entirely his choice. He watches videos, engages ChatGPT constantly, works on rank merit badges for Scouts, studies stock investing, and learns Minecraft and various creator apps.
He is confident, happy, pleasant to be around, and intensely curious about the world. He asks profound questions, a dozen or more, one after the other, on such diverse subjects, often beyond my ability to answer them. But I discuss how I think someone could frame the question, break it down into smaller questions, and seek the answers.
These conversations are among the most intellectually demanding experiences I have.
What I realize is that if you remove coercion from a child, they spend most of their time learning — not “playing.”
Again, a big thanks to @astupple for the wisdom I needed.
