I've never heard of an Hausa Christian either  but i won't be suprised of there are few of them in the south. so it's all relative. i'm not sure however if there are more Yoruba muslims than yoruba christians. i think it's 50/50 or something close to that.lol

@Olab, You are the hypocrite because from your emphasis on Ibo women in your post, the only reason you seem to 'love Ibo' people is because of 'their women'. That's okay for you afterall "taaba tori isu j'epo, a t'ori epo j'esu"( i.e if you dont eat oil becase of yam, you'll eat yam because of oil). And stop this your self eulogies, it's really boring. Count the number of times your wrote "I" in your post; you are simply self-obsessed and you have nothing tangible to offer. If a woman walks naked, I simply look away because I have self control. But self-control is not a virtue among you guys that's why you are not satisfied with one woman but must build an harem like muhammed; and afterall a leading Imam said women who dont cover their ordinary hair are like 'roasted meat', I wonder their impure thoughts at the sight of tight young girls in mini-skirt  ; talk about hedonistic pervets!! I've never heard of an Hausa Christian either :-\except a few of them who live in the south. so it's all relative. You must have been living on the moon, my friend  . Dem plenty not be small. More and more are joining everyday thanks to the spread of the gospel of grace and mercy through Jesus Christ up North now. Why do you think the Islamic fascists up north are always quick to pick up cutlass to kill and maim Christian people in the North?, but no matter how they try, they cannot stop the spread of the gospel of truth to liberate Hausa muslims from the demonic oppression of Islam in the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

There are a few suspect Igbo Muslims, because most of them are in it for some gratification. The few mosques scattered around the East cater for the Hausa/Fulani community.

@Havila: I am also arranging farming operation in Igbo land as well. You are very delutional if you think you look away, especially when you can not tell me that you were a virgin before your marriage. You have stuck with her alone, yet. But let me ask you, if you are to devorce, I pray it does not happen to you, but it is not impossible because, devorce is better than both parties sticking it out without lave and always on each others throat, even to the poit of sadness and even murder, will you entertaining a new marriage or are you going to practice celibacy, considering that you are still young or will you just result into boyfriend and girlfriend relationship? Please answer my question, but think first, which may be a rarity for you and do not mind my style of writing. Its Quarter before 3 in the morning and i am still busy with life. I need you to talk about what you know, alone, tropical deaseases in medicine. My life is very direct and open for those who know me. You are not one of them, you can then not talk bout me or doubt my veracity.

@Olabowale, Oh! I have come to learn "not to mind your writings" at all whether you are awake or half asleep, there is not much difference. Imagine, on one hand you asked me a question on marriage and in the same paragraph, you said I should talk about what I know alone. So you see, I don't mind you at all because as I told you, you are an exercise in perseverance. Now to answer your question, although it's personal, but for your edification and to the Glory of God, I will answer it. My answer to you is from the Word of God (as always) upon which my marriage is based: "It is written" in 1st Coringthians Chapter 7 vs 10-11 that: And unto the married I command, not I, but the Lord (Jesus Christ), Let NOT the wife depart from her husband:But if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and Let NOT the husband "put away" (i.e Divorce) his wife." You see, divorce is NOT in our dictionary of life or in our nature because we base our marriage on the instructions/command of the Lord i.e "Till death do us path".(Read 1st Coringthians 7 vs 39 for confirmation of this) So you can see that the rest of your question is not relevant to me. Our wisdom is a gift from God Almighty the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the only source of True wisdom; and to Him be all Glory. I know that to you muslims, divorce is 'probably' a part of life; and it only requires the husband to say loudly "I divorce you" three (3) times, and the wife is a goner!!!. Dont you see that we serve very different Lord and Master!!!

Uh can you guys not change this thread into a Christinaity vs Islam thread. Im not tolerant of religious ignorance. I dont know but from this board it seems like "Christians" are always so ready to bash Islam with words like "cult", "barbarians" etc and even though Im not one, I dont think it's fair.  btw Havila, you forgot the part of the same bible where divorce is allowed if there's infildety.

Dude, that was in the Old Testament with the Mosaic Law. But with Jesus redeeming us, that law alongside some others no longer hold water in Christianity. All laws in the OT encompass and are compiled as a unit into the greatest law Jesus laid down : the Law of Love.

IIgbo people are 'smart'. since the hoodlums up north are killing them like chicken,some don change name to Muhammad and Musa. I'm sure there are some who are deceived by the cult called Islam but please don't doubt the ability of Igbos to adjust to their situation.
Care to explain what you meant by this statement then?

Christians have this "pick and choose" rubbish that they do when it comes to the bible Ok so the rule of divorcing due to infidelity is "old Mosaic law" yet these same Christians are always the first one to use the book of Leviticus (which is also of the OLD TESTAMENT) as a reason against homosexual The irony.

@ Thiefofheart, What you need is enlightenement/edification, but you can only benefit when you really want to learn and not to be sarcastic. Romans 10:4 says "(Jesus) Christ is the end of the law for righteouness, to everyone that believeth". It is not true Christians cherry-pick what suits them in the OT, you should leave such claims for the ignorants. Christ has set us free from old Judaistic legalism upon which the Law is predicated; we are under the grace of God to do what is right. That does not mean the Law is not spiritual, but the Law cannot lead to righteousness: it can only prove guilt, dont you see. Scriptures against Homosexuality is not just in the OT, listen to this which is more appropriate from the book of 1st Corinnthians 6 vs 9-10: "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall NOT inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (i.e homosexuals), nor abusers of themselves with mankind (i.e Sodomites), (10) Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God"

As Havila rightly put it, the issue of homosexuality was not only adressed in the old testament, but also in the new.

Have you guys forgotten what Jesus Christ(AS) said in Mathew 5:17-18?
5:17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have not come to abolish these things but to fulfill them.
5:18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth pass away not the smallest letter or stroke of a letter 20 will pass from the law until everything takes place.

Havila is obviously biased.  can you please stop preaching (Havila)  (create a thread for that if you please). I think your the one who needs the enlightenment/edification the most. I agree with people picking and choosing what satisfies them from the bible but ignoring what they need to pick out the most (love your enemies, do not judge others e.t.c) because they don't want to. You read about Jesus condeming those hypocrites trying to stone the adultrous woman. ok. i'll stop preaching now. lol I've never met a christian Hausa. (unless their region is starting to get diluted with western propaganda, influences.) That'll be both a bad thing and a good thing but mostly a bad thing. but it might happen soon since America's mission as our hero is to save the world by bring Democracy and peace to every country. lol

If that's what you consider to be enlightenment, you can shove it. again, like i said before, no offence.

In other words, people need to deal with themselves first before preaching to people else those with common sense will never take them seriously

@Wesleyan, Babyosisi and Gbade.x have given you rather appropriate responses variously; let me just add that what you consider as preaching is actually not preaching but just 'living' the word of God i.e using the word as light to shine unto our dark areas of (mis)understanding. What you read or hear from me, however distasteful it might be to you, is strictly going to be my opinion on issues raised but upon the foundation of Christ teaching. So, if you think it's preaching,,,all well and good but I am just conversing with (?)adults. So after Jesus saved the adultrous woman from being stoned, what did he tell her? He said go and sin no more. I don't remember anybody asking for gays/homo to be burned at the stake or stoned, what we are saying and will continue to say, to the chagrin of you politically correct folks, is that Homosexualty is an abomination, a SIN so dastardly that it reflects peoples who have decided to rebel against God. This board is filled with these co called Christians, see it alot them, they are always the firts to condemn people based on all sorts of rubbish yet they go off doing worse things and no offencxe Havila but I don't need someone who thinks he can look down on someone of another religion telling me that I need enlightment. If that's what you consider to be enlightenment, you can shove it. again, like i said before, no offence.  @Thiefofheart; No offence here too but I don't really know what's getting you going here; but you've obviously misinterpreted or misunderstood or just plainly angry at nothing  . Anger makes people talk a lot, Can you point out some "worse things" done by so-called christians? As at the last time I checked, it is still not a crime to express your opinion. That's why it is called 'opinion'. Had it been you really read with intuition or "common sense" as you put it, with all due respect, you will see that NEVER have I or Babyosisi or Gbade.x attacked or "looked down on someone" as you said or claimed. BUT I agree I/we have our strong opinion on Islam, but NOT the muslims, not peoples!!!. Is that a problem? No!!. People have come on the board to say all sorts of things about Christianity,,,,,,,and so what? it's their opinion and I/we are entitled to our's regardless of however distasteful it might be to your sensibilities. You cannot 'thief my heart', dear because it's already sold out to Jesus.

They say we have freedom of speech until you talk about Christ then suddenly you hit a raw nerve. Even the most modest of men will want to strangle you when you 'preach' yet they'll be the first to ask you to pray for them when in trouble. They've banned prayers in schools and graduations,taken out the 10 commandments from courthouses yet after a school shooting or events like 9/11 the same people would gather and hold hands willingly and pray unashamed in public calling on Jehovah. God is all merciful but he should not be an afterthought.
Humans are complex.Airwaves and all media will show naked women,men kissing men,lewd acts on prime time TV and sexually explicit images on tv,we've all been desensitized,it's now normal,but come and talk about your faith in Christ,you are branded a homophobe and other choice names.
Any wonder our world is now at a point where defenseless women, little boys and girls are raped and molested by maniacs per second?

@osisi,
lol, strange isn't it? We sure live in a crazy world.
@thiefofhearts,
no offence, but you're the biased one here and you are the one delusional here. Did u even read my previous post on homosexuality? You see, the problem with people like you is that, when an act is condemned by Christians, you automatically arrive at the conclusion that it is the people commiting this act that are condemned! While i admit that some Christians make the error of also condemning the sinner, that does not give you the right and leverage to label every Christian as "condemners"! If at all, you are the hypocrite and Bible twister you claim all Christians are. U claimed all Christians would rather pick Leveticus, well my question is, how many Christians do you see or know quoting leveticus as the basis on the issue at hand? Maybe u know some that do, but do they count as all Christians all over? You make too broad your generalization and then come online and bitch and moan about how you dislike Christians and this and that.
I don't know exactly what your bone of contention is, but like i usually say, " you need to breathe easy, there's no need for inhalers."

Havila, I dont want your heart. Quit being corny. Im not "angry" I just dont need someone like you telling me that I need enlightment.
Seriously, What are you people crying about?
The point of my thread was to ask about Muslims in the Ibo tribe then you people came out of no where with a bunch of garbage that has nothing to do with the thread.
as for you gbade, if you dont know the difference between some and all then that's your problem. I say SOME Christians or sometimes I say "so called Christians", if you truly believe you are not part of that category then ignore the comment and quit bothering me. It's that simple.
and I dont understand babyosisi's ridiculous rant. What the hell does prayer in schools have to do with the fact that you babbled some stuff about how Ibos are too smart to join the cult known as Islam and all sorts of bull then when I questioned your comment, first you denied it now you switched it into a totally different topic. Cant say Im surprised, really. Typical behavior.
Point is there are obviously quite a number of Muslims on this board and I dont need people spewing their hate messages in my thread against Muslims. I dont need a religious war happening in a thread that was just asking a simple question. Obviously your words hurt people hence olawole's comments. You people dont like others doing such things to Christianity but you have no problem doing that to other religions. It's ridiculous and hypocrital. That is what Im against. Im not against Christianity, Im against Christians who use Christianity as a way to shield what they really think or believe. Unfortunately there are quite a number of such people on this forum. It annoys me and I speak out against it. If that bothers you, you can always add me to your ignore list. Be my guest.
