Ignorance of something is DIFFERENT from understanding that it does not exist!

Okay. That is your opinion and I understand you being an African and the way we were brought up.
Are those curses limited to Africa alone? Most of the time,we suffer from the mentality that somebody is after us than any curse.

Try to be hard-working.
Try to take responsibilities
Realize that in this life good and bad happens due to stochastic reasons.
Forget that somebody is after you
AND
You will realize that life can be beautiful and those people that you think are "after you" are busy trying to make ends meet too grin

You must understand that a lot of mis-informed people who have been taken in by their Pastors, Imams and the like blame their woes on curses. Yes, you are right in this aspect. But, I tell you that there are Genuine cases where the supernatural imposes on the preternatural and natural. In those rare cases, it's as real as it gets.

It's just like the issue of exorcism. The Catholic Church admin MUST be actually sure that ALL other "causes" of the so called demonic symptoms has been THOROUGHLY delineated and analysed within a temporal or secular background before approving an exorcism. In 99% of the case the victim's predicament can be explained within the bounds of science or medicine if you will. But, this fact does not negate the fact that there are cases of genuine demonic possession.

So, in essence, while I acquiesce with your view point I implore to not be so sure of your stance by dis-regarding the possibility that an old hag somewhere with nefarious intent can wrought much evil with the necessary knowledge. In fact the mark of true scholarship is evidenced by keeping an open mind about issues and always asking the question "...what if..."

The great minds are responsible for our REJECTION of such nonsense today. Please feel free to remain in ignorance and superstition while the rest of the world progresses without you. OR you could perhaps get a proper education and try to make something of yourself.

It is evident that you cannot engage in intellectual debate without resorting to cheap verbal attacks on your fellow discussant (s). Each to his own. I'm done here.

MAGIC real(?) and you attempt to call this an INTELLECTUAL debate. No one of any intellect believes this rubbish.

I doubt that. The deceit is the fools trying to deceive the rest of the world but as they are more educated your lies will fail.

Also as the rubbish you talk does not work or exist you are deceiving yourself. Go get an education and better yourself instead of wasting time with primitive superstitions

I don't think some MAGIC believing forest dweller is in any position to address me on Knowledge, Education, Literacy or indeed Research. Although a international consultant now, this is actually my second career. For the first 20 years I was a physicist so I understand research.

Now you are welcome to confine your 'research' wink to the magics and juju in your sambisa forest.

I am aware that cowries were one of the first West African currencies so it is quite ironic that you speak of them to illustrate how you are still living in the darkness and ignorance of the middle ages or earlier!
bro is liike you are nw on nl not your fault anyway
fyi am a great chemical engineer with international papers to prove wrote 3 while still in sch so for get what you are saying about research have been therew over and over...............
You should learn humor here on nl cowries is jst an exchange for "my two cent or my ten kobo advice
so u have seen ppl ask who is jonathan or buhari on nl
it just a play on words
like if i say who is jonathan where is stay here in france we do not know him it just pun play on words
u take things too personal read and learn
it a cracy word but me and you are definately not in a competition
my 1oooo cowries advice again

Hi I am aware of the cowrie tradition from when I did consultancy in First Bank. Just thought the connection ironic.

If you are a chemical engineer then you should be enough of a scientist to realise that magic, juju etc are superstitious nonsense. If not then your appreciation of science is very limited indeed. My own formal training is primarily as a physicist so perhaps this is an example of the old Physicist/Chemist rivalry surfacing! At least its not as bad as the Physicist/Engineer rivalry (never the twain shall meet)!

As for that Jonathan or Buhari I know them (I have spent two weeks out of every four for the last five months in Lagos) but am unsure what they have to do with it. I would be very interested to know if they believe this rubbish of Magic and Juju as no one who is that crazy is fit to run a country. Perhaps they don't believe but cannot afford to admit it in case they lose votes from the more ignorant of their supporters.

None of this changes the fact that magic, curses and juju are non existent rubbish for children and simple minds.

so what would you say about secret society like rosicrucian order,o.o.o,igbe, reformed ogboni confraternity, aiye,eiye,vikings and the foreign ones like the church of satan, freemanson,skulls and bone,illuminaty,
are they jokers?
are they just playing there?
What about books like the six and seven book of moses,efficacy of psalms, just dont want to mention names and let the innocent dable and search for them online too dangerous
what technology did the children of babel used to build to reach heaven? As written in the bible
Or has scientist been able to explain how the pyramid of egypt was build? Logically and if yes why has no body build any such similar structure for ages?
Think about it
blessed be

Well the Rosicrucians are idiots who con money out of the gullible (perhaps they are not so idiotic after all) and as for the Illuminati... well do they really exist outside of conspiracy theory?

Babel built a big tower that collapsed when it got to the limit of current engineering of those times etc etc.

Not of these idiotic things prove anything except the gullibility of the believer!

Ofcos curse and bewitching is real, wether you believe itvor not. The only immunity to these things is to abide under the shadow of the almighty.
The bible says in the book of numbers 23:23. There is no divination against jacob nor enchantement against israel. Meanin that thoes that are in convenant with God through Jesus chriat can not be enchanted by witches neither can they be cursed by anyone but if you are without christ? You are just one of numerous captive of the devil under the curse of the law waiting to be roasted by thd devil

If we introduce religion we run the risk of accepting ALL MAGIC and JUJU as real which it clearly is not. This is not a mature view of religion either!

Also this magic/curse/juju has failed every test so we know it is only for weak minded fools!
Re: Do You Think Someone Can Actually Bewitch Or Curse Another Person? by ladon1: 7:07pm On Feb 20, 2015
The biggest fools that ever exit are the ones who believed that there is no God. They think they came into being by evoluting fom tadpoles and algae. What stupidity. Even Satan himself believes that there is God and trembles.
The whole creation is enough for any wise to discern that without a creator, there can't never be a creation and only an educated fool will think because God can't be seen then he doesn't exist. Because i can't see electricity doesn't mean that its not real. The things that are powered by electricity tells us that elextricity is real though no one can see electrity with his physical eyes.

I do not believe in Magic and JUJU for two reasons:

One - Science
Two - I believe in God and he certainly does not work that way!

Bullet proof charms indeed! Where in the Bible? etc etc.

Magic and Juju - for weak minded fools. It has never worked!
