causality that one event causes another

events.

on how ridiculous, widespread and comical

Most of this stuffs are just to instill discipline in us and also to caution us, a kid could get injured while trying to drink water from the coconut. Someone eating in the dark could mistakenly swallow those stubborn fish bones and flogging someone with broom doesn't look nice cuz definitely you will have to remove broken broom sticks from your skin after the whipping.. Spitting about aint hygienic at all and that "superstition" actually helped a lot. Bending over could send blood straight to the brain and you know what can happen after that.......

Earlier this morning...someone put up pictures of King Jaja's wives on this forum...and several Nigerians looked at them disdainfully. Some were thankful for civilization..which prompted the question from me.

Now...we have alist of superstitious beliefs....and some people are saying the same thing.

I think the problem I have is that civilization is not a permanent thing...and is not necessarily the white man's civilization.I am not saying we should go back to archaic practices....but what I am saying is....what you are giving thanks for today will look archaic in a hundred years from now.

The Ancient Romans built a lot of structures which have lasted centuries. They were ''civilized'' indeed. They also practiced slavery and infant exposure.

Today's Western civilization has brought great benefits. It also brought us things like Eugenics, and weapons of mass destruction that have killed and maimed millions.

African civilizations built great structures and monuments....and also practiced slavery and a host of other ''barbaric'' pracitices.

But back then...it was civilized. It was indeed civilization.

I think your problem is that you put too much trust in human progress...without keeping track of what goes on in human hearts.

The funny thing is that what we consider civilized behaviour today may be archaic and barbaric in the future. Keep that in mind.

And please you really really did not need to be so rude. I asked a philosophical question. I did not come to make crass comments...as I clearly indicated.

God bless.

Not for me

Can anyone tell me the real deal behind not allowing a girl to sleep on the outside of the bed?
Anything superstitious?

I went to visit a friend, the gf told me he has been vexed, he came back while she was sleeping and he woke her to shift for him. She sleepily told him to enter the other side of the bed and sleep and then wahala started.
