Sports / Our Generation Was Better Than Messi And Cristiano's"- Ronaldo Delima by olasunkanmii(m): 9:17pm On Apr 18, 2022 |
Ronaldo Nazario singled out the best generation in the history of football and did not hesitate to talk about Cristiano Ronaldo, Leo Messi and Neymar. "Technically, our generation was way ahead," said the Brazilian football legend. The Brazilian football legend referred to the best generation that has ever existed in the history of football: "All records will be broken, even those of Messi and Ronaldo's today will be broken in the future. Records are made for this. But it is difficult to compare one generation with another. There are no right measures to do this. "If you ask me which generation to choose, I would say ours, without a doubt... "During my generation, the competition was much tougher than it is now, without wanting to speak less of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.​ And Neymar... But the others are missing, they haven't reached their level. Before there was more competition and not only in Italy, but also in Spain and England," added Ronaldo. What’s your take on this? Which generation is better, Leo/Cristiano’s or Ronaldo De lima’s?

Sports / OFFICIAL: Xavi Appointed Barcelona Coach by olasunkanmii(m): 12:19pm On Nov 05, 2021 |
Barcelona have announced that Xavi Hernandez has become the new coach. He takes over following the dismissal of Ronald Koeman on 27th October following the 1-0 loss to Rayo Vallecano in La Liga. It was coming and it has finally arrived. Former Barcelona player Xavi Hernandez has returned to the Catalan giants, but this time as a coach. He has penned a contract at the club until 2024. Xavi Hernandez had been Barca president Joan Laporta's first choice to take over from Ronald Koeman, who was sacked following the 1-0 defeat to Rayo Vallecano on 27th October. Xavi joins the Catalan giants after Barca reached an agreement with Al Sadd, the Qatari club Xavi was coaching before moving to the La Liga outfit. Despite the fact Xavi's contract included a clause which allowed him to leave for Barca whenever he wanted, it has not been so straight forward for the Spanish club. Barca wanted to get him immediately, but Al Sadd refused to release him until 3rd November so that Xavi could remain in charge for two important Al Sadd matches before departing. In the end, Barca agreed to this arrangement. Xavi's replaces Barca B coach Sergi Barjuan, who had taken over on a caretaker basis for three games until Xavi could join up with the squad. The 41 year-old has got two years of experience coaching Al-Sadd and has won seven trophies for the Qatari outfit. He will also bring his own coaching team with him including his brother Oscar Hernandez, his assistant Sergi Alegre and fitness trainer Ivan Torres.

Religion / Re: Legend Of Lilith: Adam's First Wife by olasunkanmii(m): 12:12pm On Jul 18, 2020 |
Ge 5:2 implies a dual creation from the ground for the first created male and female because the common name of Adam was given to both of them. Only the Lilith legend explains the simultaneous creation of both the male and female from the ground. Lilith’s rebellion explains why God suddenly rescinded permission to eat of every tree, why the tree of knowledge came to exist, and why Adam had to guard the garden. Lilith’s departure explains how Adam suddenly “became alone” in Ge 2:18. The literal Hebrew of the verse reveals that God did not create Adam alone, but rather that Adam “became alone” after some time. |
Religion / Re: Legend Of Lilith: Adam's First Wife by olasunkanmii(m): 12:07pm On Jul 18, 2020 |
truespeak:Confusion?! Now read carefully, Genesis recounts of the creation of a man and woman four times. Three (Ge 1:26-29, 2:4-8, and Ge 5:1-2) imply the co-creation of a woman with the man from the dust of the earth. The creation account of Eve comes in a forth passage in Ge 2:21-25. That passage clearly indicates that Eve came later and was taken from the man’s side. |

babajero: There is a possible mention of Lilith in the old testament, in Isaiah chapter 34. It is there in the Hebrew original, but unclear if it means this Lilith. Some English translations attempt to translate the name or word to various possible meanings, others leave it as Lilith . |

Religion / Legend Of Lilith: Adam's First Wife by olasunkanmii(m): 9:03am On Jul 18, 2020 |
Lilith is an extremely controversial figure within Jewish folklore. Lilith's name is not included in the creation story of the Torah but she appears in several midrashic texts . Her symbolism, history and literature are debated among Jewish scholars, feminists and other intellectuals. There are multiple origin stories for Lilith but the most popular history told views Lilith as the first wife of Adam. According to the "first Eve" story Lilith was created by God from dust and placed to live in the garden with Adam until problems arose between Adam and Lilith when Adam tried to exercise dominance over Lilith. One story tells that Lilith refused to lay beneath Adam during sex. She believed they were created equal, both from the dust of the earth, thus she should not have to lay beneath him. After Adam disagreed, Lilith fled the Garden of Eden to gain her independence. Adam told God that Lilith had left and God sent three angels, Senoi, Sansenoi , and Sammangelof , to retrieve her. The three angels found Lilith in a cave bearing children but Lilith refused to come back to the garden. The angels told her they would kill 100 of her children every day for her disobedience. In revenge, she is said to rob children of life and is responsible for the deaths of still-born infants and crib deaths (SIDS). Male children are at risk of Lilith's wrath for 8 days after birth (until circumcision) and girls are at risk for 20 days. Although Lilith stole children's lives in the night, she agreed not to kill the children who had amulets of either of the three angels. After the angels' departure, Lilith tried to return to the garden but upon her arrival she discovered that Adam already had another mate, Eve. Out of revenge, Lilith had sex with Adam while he was sleeping and "stole his seed." With his seed she bears 'lilium,' earth-bound demons to replace her children killed by the angels. Lilith is also said to be responsible for males' erotic dreams and night emissions. Another theory says that Lilith is impregnated, thus creating more demons by masturbation and erotic dreams. Lilith: a power symbol? The open-ended nature of the Lilith symbol has allowed different groups to use her as a destructive female symbol or a symbol of female power. Many feminists see Lilith as not only the first woman but the first independent woman created. In the creation story she refuses to allow Adam to dominate her and flees the garden despite the consequences. In order to retain her freedom she must give up her children and in retaliation she steals the seed of Adam. In one account of this story, Lilith is said to "mount Adam" ( click here for this version). This version of the story implies that Lilith sexually violated Adam; however, other stories portray Lilith as a demoness who kills children and takes advantage of men while they are sleeping. Jewish halakhic law forbids the spilling of a man's seed and Lilith takes advantage of this, during masturbation and erotic dreams, and uses it to replenish her own offspring. Although Lilith is controversial some feminists have used her as a symbol of empowerment. For example, one Jewish feminist magazine is called Lilith labels itself as an "Independent Jewish Woman's Magazine." The publishers use Lilith as a title because they believe she is a symbol of independence. However, those who still think of her as a demoness could turn it around and once again label feminists as male bashers or men-haters. They see Lilith as wicked and vengeful towards men and children. With any symbol or icon used by feminists, especially within a religious context, there will be controversy and opposition. Whether or not the story of Lilith is accurate is not the main issue. The "first Eve" version of the story gives Lilith a role that many women can identify within Judaism and other religious traditions. She is an independent woman who challenges the oppressive system in which she is placed. Stealing the lives of children represents a certain madness that accompanies her solitude and exclusion. Despite Lilith's downfalls, she still remains a symbol of power simply by her survival and mysteriousness. She is open for interpretation and therefore allows women to reinterpret her symbolism and power within the tradition. Source: The Genesis Factor article by Stephan A. Hoeller

Both are mutually exclusive. Reason; by the traditional wedding, you have performed the customary rites required for the marriage ( the peoples' mandate), but by crowning it with the white (church) wedding, you are entrusting your union into God's hand. So, no "chucking" until the white wedding is done 19 Likes 6 Shares |
