AdmiralDru: You're asking me the same question that theists (i.e. those who believe in God) have never been able to answer: "where did God come from"? Their answer is the enigmatic - but quite useless - "God has always existed". I submit to you the same: "nature has always existed, and the current Universe via the Big Bang is one manifestation of it". Nobody knows; there are theories (some in the form of faith and religion, some are being refined over time*). But all of them are Man's attempt at understanding existence. Some of my favorite theories over time - the world is flat and moon and stars hang from the sky like tiny lantern. Actually they are all round, held together by gravity; some are unimaginably large they ignite, and their light could take decades to get here. - thunder is caused by some celestial being banging a hammer. Actually, electrical charge imbalance causes electrons to race to the ground, heating up the air as they go; the sound we hear is essentially popping air molecules. - children who die and come back again are possessed. Actually, parents repeatedly produce offspring with the same genetic issues that cause early death (e.g. sickle cell anemia or similar) who bear a striking resemblance to the siblings who died. 2 Likes 1 Share |

ERockson: I'm not saying Nigeria is better than Ireland, but Ireland is not as great as the picture he's painting. I said UK is better. Ireland is only good if you're raising a family but trust me you won't be rich. You'll also be extremely bored as it is a conservative country. Canada, UK other countries are better for young educated people with ambition. 7 Likes |

ERockson: Different strokes for different folks... Coming to Nigeria was the best thing that ever happened to me (even if I did not realize it then). It’s not cut-and-dried, but one thing I know for certain is that among our extended family born in the US, everyone who lived or schooled in Nigeria has been MORE successful academically and professionally after returning to the US (and even those of us who choose to remain here). > 6 Likes |

LivingSage: I don’t want us to continue like this too But you can’t fix problems until the real root causes have been properly identified. It is the other impossible (more important) slant to the equation. When I saw this post before, I thought you rose to my striking out challenge and was intending to cancel out my post (I have been on a ?sugar ?spice rush all week!). I missed your message earlier. I just reread it now. Cheers 1 Like 1 Share |

dainformant: Believe it bro, some people are just so dumb. You went to another mans country on a visitor visa without any skill and you refuse to develop yourself even after getting stay. You want to compare yourself with someone that went to the country on a study route with more information on how to build himself from the scratch?? 14 Likes 1 Share |

nextstep: First, I'm agnostic and a freethinker. Most atheist claim to be free thinkers. If scientists come up with a claim Tomorrow (as they often do) that they've discovered how the big bang started. Atheist would defend it with their lives like it's a fact and they were around when it took place. To even think you can explain what happened millions or billions of years ago is laughable. Remember this, nothing can come of nothing. |

You really don't know anything. I have really observed this. Ignorance, How can you claim to have lived in Ireland for over 20 years and seem not to know what is happening around you. That's bad. I said many people including Nigerians were paid 350 euro TODAY. Or are you still doubting it. My rent which is 325 euro covers ALL the bills including gas, electricity e.t.c. It is clear that your life is different from mine. YOU CAN BELIEVE ANYTHING YOU WANT. It's not my concern. Focusingmore: 4 Likes

nextstep: Brother, I know the theory you mentioned and it's pure nonsense. The big bang is there so atheist can have something to masturbate about when asked about the origin of life. Even with all our knowledge, we can't create the simplest cell, we don't know how to start or where to start from. If see how a cell operates, you will be amazed. Miniture machines far more complex than anything humans have created. How did they assemble themselves, where did the information of each cell come from? Information mean intelligence which means consciousness. Just use your logic instead of following theories that can never be demonstrated. Just think about this. Humans have a brain, how did a brain come to being by something brainless? Tell me how? How can ignorance create intelligence? 2 Likes |

Phelixblaq: You don't know shit, all the major companies are in Dublin, in fact companies like Facebook, Google are all in Dublin. Now tell me the cost of renting a flat in Dublin and your salary expectations? You guys are easily impressed, been there done that. I'm not saying everyone is doing shitty jobs , I'm saying Ireland is not that much of a great country Statistically if we look at every Nigerian in Ireland I can tell you for a fact that most are in low paid jobs ... Limerick is even worse , the have northern trust, Johnson and Johnson which is shift work, then you have Uber and some companies in raheen. It's not great if you are ambitious. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Pathfinder121: That's 4 k a month , not great same as taxi drivers earn but don't have to declare. If you add Dublin expenses, you'll realise you're just getting by. When treasury bills were good , some people with 70 million invested were earning close to your salary without lifting a finger. Anyway I'll stop here ... Thanks for listening 6 Likes 1 Share |
