safarigirl: Why vent your anger on me? I just asked a question and the essence of asking a question is to get answer. I am baffled by your thought. What has gay marriage got to do with the question I raised? In my question, I never said we should stop bride price. Over syllabus dey do you ooo!!! People like you, will write a script full in an exam writing out of point. |

@OP...quit trying to defend yourself,people will believe watever they want to believe,instead of been logical and reasonable,they have resorted to insults and unreasonable rebuttal...in as much as I won't marry a lady for free,I believe pride price should be moderate,parents should not always depend on pride price as if its a kind of insurance to them...God bless you 1 Like |

innervoice:it is people who train their kids to believe that marriage is the be all Ndd end all of every woman that go about beghing people to marry their daughters. For what? Can you gain eternal life with marriage? Immortality is gotten by your works on earth, not by the husband or kids you left behind. Better to be single and happy than married and depressed. If you force marriage, you will end up unhappy or dead so I will never understand why anyone rates marriage as an achievement. If I do have a daughter, best believe I won't be training her to be suitor-searching, i'll raise her to seek knowledge and happiness. If a suitor comes along, fine.....and when I said I stand more to gain from a single daughter, it's you who assumed I meant that in a materialistic way, so your mindset is programmed that way. Anyone who is anti-bride price should either stay single or go to Ghana where the women marry the men |

Toks2008: Hope you know there's a difference between Judaism and Christianity? Most of the laws in the Old Testament are no longer applicable to the church in their entirety. If you want to live by the laws, then you must keep all of them, which is impossible. That is why the law cannot justify anybody. Christ justifies, not observance of the law. Show me what the New Testament, whether Christ (in the gospels) or any of the apostles (in the epistles) said about marriage and bride price, then we can take the discussion further from there. |

RoyalPearl: And then you brought India into it... Btw, paying of dowry doesn't equate to marrying the man. And there are lot of places besides India where dowry is paid. (or used to be paid as in the case of England). |
Re: 7 Facts About Bride Price That Will Shock You. by Nobody: 12:06pm On Aug 02, 2015 |
Toks2008: Again, I've never heard of any family that justified their outrageous bride price request by the Bible or by hiding under Christianity. It's always based on the custom and norms of the community, never based on the Bible. That's why a Christian family in Imo State can charge up to 500k for bride price alone, while in some places in Anambra, bride price charged also by a Christian family could be as low as 25 naira. So you see it's never about Christianity but about the norms of the community involved. |

wrongnumber:haba... No body is wailing naa... Its not possible for everyone to percieve d same thing in the same way. Imagine how boring this thread would have been if every one dat commented simply wrote... "op u are very right' haba dat would have been super borin naa, even op would be disappointed trust me. And guess what, me nd U wouldn't have quoted each other .... A Nairaland without 'the agrees' and 'the agrees not' will be disaster. Nairaland will begin to loose members... Abeg we dont want that ooo, so let d arguments continue. |

Pls dia is a difference BTW bride price and dowry. I am from north and here ladies do dowry also referred to as kayan gara. so its not only India. besides the attitude of men dis days makes it necessary to present a list, most times wat we get for free we do not value. and I think we practice DAT here in Africa as a tradition and not as a part of our religion. our own for naija sefnna nothing have u heard of some African countries wia u need to present 12 cows to the brides father? |
