MuttleyLaff:
I will give you that you are right in that contracting HIV is no longer a death sentence to carry in as much you medically address it quite quickly and early enough but it really is suppression mate.

Suppression is the first step to eradication. Why are you being so pessimistic? We have overcome deadlier scourges.

HIV will always be there to be a threat and scourge to at least the promiscuous, cheats and those prostituting themselves

Every adventure has its risks. Do you know how many people have died trying to climb the Everest?

Ranch what use of having great friends for, if not to piss you off enough to think.
Ajekutamomi to nso Yoruba.
Ah no beri oo. Atenshun sir! Salute.

I assure you I am thinking.

Many are not properly informed about Romans 1:27

I count myself among the many. I don't think I am properly informed about anything in the Bible if Bible thumpers are to be believed. I seem to be lacking copious amounts of what they call the Holy Spirit. I am hemorrhaging it.

Man never conquers them Ranch
Man becomes wiser, man manages them, man suppresses them.
Another bogey is round the corner waiting for man to contend with.
It never stops Ranch, until the end.

And we will keep dealing with every scourge that comes. The plague, Ebola, Zika, Lassa, HIV etc. They will continue to succumb to the force that is human medicine.

At least two of us to start with

Why is every man a cheat by nature?
Were every man in the beginning always a cheat by nature?

I don't know. The same way I don't know why we have to sleep and wake everyday. It just is.

usoroh4luv:


Please sir, with all due respect, I want to ask you this.

Before you got married, did you have many girls around that you were sleeping with?

If yes, how were you able to stay focus in your marriage and let them go.

It was a habit I cultivated before I got married. I never had more than one girlfriend at a time and when I am with a girl I never cheat on her. Maybe it is the way was made but I felt cheating makes one dirty. But now that I am born again I have come to understand that it was the mercy of God that kept me that way to prepare me for the kind of life I am living now. God bless you.

patani:


Please ignore such fellas..You are sharing your own personal experience and facts but he is busy castigating it.

Such fellows are even the worst cheats, they even allow the strange women destroy their home eventually

You should respect when someone speaks with verifiable facts and numbers. The OP is just giving us a vague and inconsequential conclusion based on the number and kind of people she has spoken to.

Has she spoken to or lived with up to 1m men or families to come to her conclusion? And Nigerian men are 60m...so how do we reconcile that?

Is it not the same OP that keeps posting things that can destabilize couples if they take her advice/counsel?

Stop promoting rubbish.
How can you claim to love someone and still hurt them?

Ranchhoddas:
Suppression is the first step to eradication.
Why are you being so pessimistic?

You're mistaken about the pessimism.

The state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to your idealistic or notional idea of them,
is that only two diseases have being completely eradicated
and the reality is that HIV is at the end of a very long and winding queue
behind syphilis, gonorrhoea, herpes, chlamydia, genital warts etcetera to be on a credible eradication list.

Ranchhoddas:
We have overcome deadlier scourges

Please indulge me.
Give me a handsomely list of what we've ovecome

Ranchhoddas:
Every adventure has its risks.
Do you know how many people have died trying to climb the Everest?

Every adventure has its risks
and so why promiscuity and/or casual sex too have their risks

Ranchhoddas:
I assure you I am thinking

Positive thinking is very interesting

Ranchhoddas:
I count myself among the many.
I don't think I am properly informed about anything in the Bible if Bible thumpers are to be believed.

Bible thumpers are health hazards

Ranchhoddas:
I seem to be lacking copious amounts of what they call the Holy Spirit.
I am hemorrhaging it.

There is nothing like copious amounts of what they call the Holy Spirit
Dont you know that everyone has equal measure access to what they call the Holy Spirit?
You dont haemorrhage what they call the Holy Spirit, you fill out in to what they call the Holy Spirit.

Grace, in our lives, is very important in the journey of life

Ranchhoddas:
And we will keep dealing with every scourge that comes.
The plague, Ebola, Zika, Lassa, HIV etc.
They will continue to succumb to the force that is human medicine.

Amen, amen, amen
and we so therefore, thank God for miracles

Ranchhoddas:
I don't know.

I dont know how to type this
but if you dont know, then for starters, let's say, stop making the unreliable assertion that every man is a cheat by nature.

Anything you dont know, is something you can learn.
Are you a cheat by nature?
Have you got a true or correct conscience?

Ranchhoddas:
The same way I don't know why we have to sleep and wake everyday.
It just is.

Have you ever tried power nap?
We sleep, to get reinvigorated
and wake, re-energised everyday

Ranchhoddas:
It just is.

I know, it's like as, God just is ...

What I mean is that we have always find a way around the meanest of infections. Drugs, vaccines, and prophylactic devices and measures always make sure we eventually conquer those pesky microorganisms.

Every adventure has its risks
and so why promiscuity and/or casual sex too have their risks

I don't follow

Positive thinking is very interesting

It is

Bible thumpers are health hazards

There is nothing like copious amounts of what they call the Holy Spirit
Dont you know that everyone has equal measure access to what they call the Holy Spirit?
You dont haemorrhage what they call the Holy Spirit, you fill out in to what they call the Holy Spirit.

Everyone disagrees on what/who the Holy Spirit is and how to get it. I am sure you have your own ideas

Grace, in our lives, is very important in the jorney of life

I am not sure why you have said this.

Amen, amen, amen
and we so therefore, thank God for miracles

I dont know how to type this
but if you dont know, then for starters, let's say, stop making the unreliable assertion that every man is a cheat by nature.

Anything you dont know, is something you can learn.
Are you a cheat by nature?

I guess

Have you got a true or correct conscience?

I like to believe that.

Have you ever tried power nap?
We sleep, to get reinvigorated
and wake, re-energised everyday

I know, it's like as, God just is ...

Why do we sleep to get reinvigorated? Why do we not just get reinvigorated by just willing it? Does God sleep to get reinvigorated?
Do you know how many years of your life you've spent sleeping?

Ranchhoddas:
What I mean is that we have always find a way around the meanest of infections.
Drugs, vaccines, and prophylactic devices and measures always make sure we eventually conquer those pesky microorganisms

Stay in lane and they wont bother you.
At least very least, dont cheat, to be promiscious, dont have casual sex you arent informed about, dont be unfaithful etcetera
and you wont have their attention or be on their radar.

Ranchhoddas:
I don't follow

Promiscuity and/or casual sex is an adventure too with its fair share of risks

Ranchhoddas:
It is

Positive thoughts created the universe

Ranchhoddas:
Everyone disagrees on what/who the Holy Spirit is and how to get it.

Everyone? Really?
I am beginning to notice that you regularly like making sweeping statement sha

Ranchhoddas:
I am sure you have your own ideas

You want the honest truth?
I have no ideas of mine

Ranchhoddas:
I am not sure why you have said this.

You said:
"I seem to be lacking copious amounts of what they call the Holy Spirit."
and that you are hemorrhaging it
so I am telling you that grace, in our lives, is very important in the journey of life
Why dont you one day, really watch birds fly, watch fishes swim, watch gazelles sprint or a springbok pronk with grace.

Ranchhoddas:
I guess

Why are you guessing you're a cheat by nature

Ranchhoddas:
I like to believe that.

so nothing to do with cultural, social or religious restraints then,

Ranchhoddas:
Why do we sleep to get reinvigorated?

It is part of the inummerable rules
besides that, we sleep to get reinvigorated, for the same reason that land for instance is left to fallow

Ranchhoddas:
Why do we not just get reinvigorated by just willing it?

Our physiology and psychology wont allow reinvigoration to work that way

Ranchhoddas:
Does God sleep to get reinvigorated?

God rests for other reasons than to get reinvigorated

Ranchhoddas:
Do you know how many years of your life you've spent sleeping?

Yes I do.
I found out, it's fair deal, when the other day, I sat down thinking about it

MuttleyLaff:
Stay in lane and they wont bother you.
At least very least, dont cheat, to be promiscious, dont have casual sex you arent informed about, dont be unfaithful etcetera
and you wont have their attention or be on their radar.

In other words, cheat responsibly.

Promiscuity and/or casual sex is an adventure too with its fair share of risks

This is what I've been saying.

Positive thoughts created the universe

Hmmm...
I agree.

Everyone? Really?
I am beginning to notice that you regularly like making sweeping statement sha

The disagreements are denomination-based.

You want the honest truth?
I have no ideas of mine

That's what everyone says. They always say it is in the Bible.

You said:
"I seem to be lacking copious amounts of what they call the Holy Spirit."
and that you are hemorrhaging it
so I am telling you that grace, in our lives, is very important in the journey of life
Why dont you one day, really watch birds fly, watch fishes swim, watch gazelles sprint or a springbok pronk with grace.

Hmmm...
What will this achieve?

Why are you guessing you're a cheat by nature

so nothing to do with cultural, social or religious restraints then

I may be a cheat.

It is part of the inummerable rules
besides that, we sleep to get reinvigorated, for the same reason that land for instance is left to fallow

Our physiology and psychology wont allow reinvigoration to work that way

Why?

God rests for other reasons than to get reinvigorated

Do you know what these reasons are?

Yes I do.
I found out, it's fair deal, when the other day, I sat down thinking about it

So approximately how many years have you spent unconscious?

Ranchhoddas:
In other words, cheat responsibly.

If staying in lane,
then you aren't cheating, talkess needing to cheat responsibly.

Ranchhoddas:
This is what I've been saying

The price for some risks are worth taking and paying for.

Ranchhoddas:
Hmmm...
I agree.

Solid truth

Ranchhoddas:
The disagreements are denomination-based

What do you say is how then?

Ranchhoddas:
That's what everyone says. They always say it is in the Bible.

Do a Berean then.
Always check and cross-check
Don't take or accept things on face value only
Do the needful always.

Ranchhoddas:
Hmmm...
What will this achieve?

Are you kidding me?
You arent really asking me what does grace achieve, do you?

Ranchhoddas:
I may be a cheat.

It's your choice.
Would you wish, look forward and/or be pleased to be cheated on?

Ranchhoddas:
Why?

The human body doesn't operate full on non-stop

Ranchhoddas:
Do you know what these reasons are?

One is leading by setting the right example

Ranchhoddas:
So approximately how many years have you spent unconscious?

I am sorry, I didn't type that rightly.
I meant to convey that we spend a third of our lives sleeping.
On the average we sleep eight hours a day in order to get a good night rest
but as I earlier said, when I was thinking of the rationale behind the eight hours rest, I found it to be a fair deal, as it leaves a pair of eight halves hours to equally share out.

How many years have I spent unconscious?
Well there are many times I have spent little death unconscious,
yelped in cloud nine ecstasy, momentarily blacked out coupled with eyes rolled to back

dont ur parents flog u even tho they love you

olashas:
Stop promoting rubbish.
How can you claim to love someone and still hurt them?

Marriage is a sacred union, but parties should respect and love each other.
Meanwhile for parents among us who wants to raise great kids here is some advice on some words you should always say to your kids
https://sustainedfamily.com/2018/12/11/7-amazing-words-parents-should-always-say-to-their-kids/

alhassanyusuf29:

This does not make sense.

This is like saying a partner should stay in violent relationship because he/she got beaten as a kid.

Take note

olashas:
Stop promoting rubbish.
How can you claim to love someone and still hurt them?

Some people are blessed with natural stupidity ah swear

Absolute nonsense

PrincewithGod:

Am one of them, been married for 10yrs now, not cheated on her once.

12 years now! Still not cheating!

PrincewithGod:

12 years now! Still not cheating!

God continually be with you.

Hmmm it's not easy. As sweet as pounded yam is you can't eat it for 1year straight without getting tired of it
