Yea, I feel that way too, but still, will that leader even get there? That is the question, given that we now live in a country where if you're not christian, or moslem, you can never attain a particular stage in the affairs of statesmanship.

Hmm, I wouln't know about the above, but what I do know is that our institutions built to fight these sort of things have been so very ineffective to the point it has been taken over by tribalism and religious sentiment.


You gotta have faith!

We can get there but it will take nothing short of a revolution. Yes, a revolution but not a voilent one. It will take a lot of hardwork and sweat

If we humanists, activists, skeptics etc start an organisation and then grow it into a political party.........................

Oyedepo started one day and now, he has over 3 million followers as members of his church. I believe humanists can do better

I'm not in support f criminalizing gay, heck, there are so many things I'm not in support of, but you don't see me coming on social media and shouting and shoving my opinions down peoples throat.


I see. That is a fair position then...

Yes, you are right! An ability to time travel would be a god-like power.


As for going to the past and killing my grandfather, the logic is not so simple- that is why it is a logical paradox.

Think about three other logical possibilities.

1) What if I travel to a time before my grandfather was born? I would still exist, right? What is now the difference between killing my father and going back to a time before he was born since he wouldn't exist in both scenarios
You would still exist because your grandfather's progenitor is still very much alive. Killing your grand father only mean everyone from your grand father's lineage will be eradicated.

2) What if there are multiple future timelines as a result of killing my grandfather? What if I then create two futures? One future where I exist and another future where I don't exist because my grandfather is dead? Parallel universes[
/quote]Well parallel universes is still as impossible as Time Travel. As long as your grandfather still exist in a particular time line, it mean you have the possibility of existing.

[quote]3) What if I kill my grandfather for fun and then, my brother goes back in time just at the moment I was about to kill my grandfather then, he stops me from doing the murder?


Time travel logic is crazy! Only true philosophers can handle it.
Its still the same, as long as your grandfather still exists, you have every possibility of existing, however, never fail to note that by coming in contact with your grandfather, you may have just changed time because he will know what to do in getting your grandmother, that in turn may distort the time space continuum.

I feel you. Personally, I don't believe in invading into people's private relationship. What matters is consent. If two consenting adults agree to have a relationship, wetin concern me?

14 years jail sentence is rubbish.

You should know: faith is always the believe in something, without the proof of data or evidence to back it up. I'm one who deal with facts, proof and evidence, thus, so far, from what I've seen in this country, that aint possible.

Oyedepo was and still is a money grumbler! His intent was never to make lives better but to become a religious bourgeois comprador, which he achieved by using religion.

I tell you, most humanist who wear the garb of humanist in Nigeria, do so, with the aim of making money out of it, it is mostly for their own gain, not for the gain of others.

Tell me, why do you think Nigeria is now a money loving/worshipping society?

Interesting. But have you asked yourself how it would work? If I killed my grandfather, would I and my brothers just disappear? poof!

Yep, that's the way to it, but I believe fading will be the more appropriate word to use, not disappear.

I'm talking about secular humanists and not fake azz humanitarians.

Also, you are right. The truth is that he who has not chopped will not help others to chop.


This is why we would have to gather STABLE men who are not in it for the money in such an organization.
