What Seems To Be The Criteria For A Thread Making Frontpage? by PastorOluT(m): 9:23am On Aug 22, 2013
This forum is meant to be religious forum where we have Christians, Muslim (ok Muslims have a sub forum), Atheist etc. And it is a known that all these have their believes and disbelieves as in the case of some.
Its obvious that some persons on this forum has gotten preferences and their thread easily make the frontpage. So my question is this, what is the criteria for a thread to make the frontpage?

1. Make your topic as interesting, informative and attractive as it may be
.
2. Photos help
.
3. Try getting attention of the readers in your topic so as to get much comments.
.
4. If you are posting news; back it up with source
.
5. Follow the rules and regulations while posting e.g punctuation marks
.
6. Lastly, we are in Nigeria. Favouritism can never be waved away. Some Moderators don't need to see comments before gracing a post Front page. & some are lady-lovers no need to explain that. I've seen topics without proper punctuation marks making front page and some after posting, they will just write "mod front page pls", just wait about a minute you'll c the topic on front page. Some moderators are not even competent. There exists corruption in Nairaland(Nigeria).

Thanks for your comment @ all. But my question is from the context of religious/christian forum. Maybe I should rather put, what makes a Christian thread make frontpage?

As Christians we present the truth as it is n not play to the gallery, n once it is the word n truth it will always be INSPIRATIONAL AND LIFE TOUCHING. But many atimes when the truth is said, it is not appealing to many 'cos that's not what they want to hear.

The Truth is Bitter no doubt.
Most Topics on Religion don't make frontpage. The moderator was recently fired. Even Mr. Seun was sorry for allowing such person to be a moderator in this section.

I am calling on all true concerned Christians on NL to look at what is happening on this forum. What exactly is the criteria for making frontpage from this forum?
As religion forum from the Christian section, threads that make frontpage aren't those that truly teaches what we believe as Christians n can learn from. U see threads like "Describe your church in one word" making frontpage while those that exalt Christ n His teachings hardly find their way there.

Our mods should please recommend threads that truly portray what we believe as Christians for the frontpage so that we all can learn n be blessed.

Food for thought, i've noticed it too, that if your post is strictly for edifying people with truth from scripture, it will be considered too boring for FP. It wont even have many comments on the religion section much less make it to FP.

I think for now the taste of unbelievers determine what makes it to FP, as in what unbelievers love to hear and discuss about the church. So for a religious topic to make it to FP, it must be controversial or argumentative, it must indict a ministry or bash a pastor. If its not one of those, it will take the favour of God to get FP slot.

But i see a change coming soon.

In as much as I agree with you about the low quality of threads making front page, i do find it funny that , as usual, you think your shade christianity is better than all the hundreds of other more ridiculous ones that seem to make front page.

This is the recurring theme in religion.
My religion is better, my sect is better, my denomination is better.
Please, what else is new?

The question you should be asking yourself is :
Why is christianity, as a religion, so attractive to all manners of misfits, dimwits and all shades of lunacy?.

I have all the answers to that question.
Stay tuned.

you are not the first to attack the christian faith, neither are you the last, many have said horrible things our faith. Some even tried to subdue it, but you see! It could not be subdued! It grew more stronger and powerful over the centuries! Why because truth cannot be subdued, neither can it be overcome by evil men, misinformation, deception, lies and darkness

that alone should prove to you that there's some truth to our faith.

I am not merely refering to the flock of christian sheeple, I am referring to the wolves of christianity.

And secondly, it is instructive that jesus welcomed all manners of misfits people. That is correct and noted.

My point and the relevant question , which I am sure you understand, is:
Are the misfits and lunatics, the propagators of the christian message, or simply the beneficiaries of that message?.

Because, as it is very obvious to everyone, christianity today, is made of 10,000 dysfunctional units, run by , assume ,10,000 misfits and lunatics.

So, at what point in it's history, did misfits and lunatics take over the simple message of christianty and turn it into the the monstrous cobweb irrationality and lunacy?
This is a valid question that requires unbiased thought.

What do you believe to be the simple message of Christianity?

Correction.
Christianity has grown far less stronger and far less powerful over the last few centuries.
This century will definitely be it's last. That is a fact.

The question for you is;
Why is christianity so susceptible to the misinformation, deception, lies, darkness and manipulation by evil men?
Truth is usually very hard, if not impossible, to manipulate.
Truth cannot have a 10,000 denominations.

A lie, on the other hand, a contrived or fabricated system is always open to manipulation, interpretation, deception, lies, and of course, editions and Revisions.
Only a fabricated system of lies can have 10,000 denominations all telling 10,000 versions of a fabricated truth.
