yeah exactly my point!!!!! so its ok to blow people up because they "insulted" your religion?? So u value your perception of what is an insult or not to human life shocked,,,,,u guys make me sick!!!!!!


And yeah,,,,,am sure u have never been in a situation where u rejected something and later accepted it. SO u tell them u are a muslim right? well yeah smartass!!! thats why they want to convert u, if u were a christian then there will not be a need for them to try ro do that!!!! got it?? Duh! this is economics 101, u persuade people to get what they do not have, not what they already have!!!!!at least u have learnt something today!

The person who started this thread is only looking for attention.

From the tone of her responses so far, one cannot be fooled that she is just a jive turkey.
Why did she insult Bolex?

PLEASE, WHEN YOU ARE ONLINE, TRY TO HAVE SOME COMPANY MANNERS.

If you see or meet many members of Nairaland in flesh and blood, you would be to intimidated to even talk to them. So, don't abuse the privilege given to you to exercise your freedom of speech and turn it into freedom of abuse.

I have ignored Nigerian forums until I joined Nairaland, because I respect Seun. But if people who lack the discipline for public decorum come online to insult others, they should be disciplined. Because, we don't want another "Papermoon" here.

There are many members of Nairaland who are not Nigerians and they are harassed and embarrassed by such insolent characters or fringe elements.

I invite my buddies from America, Europe, Australia and Asia to visit Nairaland and they have been doing so. And I want us to show that we are not vagabonds online. We cannot continue to tolerate any pubic nuisance to rubbish the image of Nigeria in the global village. Because, one of the reasons why I am online is to redeem the battered image of Nigeria.
PLEASE, NO INSOLENCE HERE.

God bless you.    

N.B:
A public nuisance is an interference with the common right of the general public or an indefinite number of persons; an unreasonable interference with the health, safety, peace, or comfort of the community.

MissEniola:

When I was young,

How old are you now?


I used to think christianity was a cult,

Now that you are an adult what do you think christianity is?


them people walking around with pamphlets used to scare the chit out of me,

Why were you scared? Were you possessed?


there was this particular dude by the mountain of fire church, always waiting for me when im walking back from school. I used to take off my shoes and run whenever I got to the area and he would run after me while his fellow brothers hailed him “catch her catch her” any passerby would think I was the demon and they were trying cure me or something.

Are you sure they were not trying to rape you? The story doesn't make sense

Obviously you don't need any Mohammed or Jesus 'cos your god is right there in your room, DEAD! With all the incantations and libation, there hasn't been a response. You sure he's still gonna answer?

Ohhhhh, somebody is starting to get upset!!!!!! lol, Ok we are getting somewhere here,,,,,,,,so u agree with me that muslims will blow people up for "insulting" their religion. First of all, talking to u about being a christian is not ramming anything down your throat, it will be the case if I put a gun to your head and tell u to accept it or die,,,,,,or to try to kill u for renouncing islam, just like your brethren do in Afghanistan. SO again I ask u,,,,,,,who is better? the Person who talks to u about their faith or those who pass laws to force u to respect their religious sensitivites and kill u if u "insult" their religion? ANswer the damn question and stp beating around the bush!!!!! Who is better!!!!!

My Initial point was that the comparison of christianity with islam(mohamedians), by the person who started this thread is insulting and degrading to christians like myself who will never force people to respect my sensibilites

I for one don't and I have no inclination to insult other people's religion, even at the point of luvadevil's rude and wicked assertion about islam in another thread, I still maintain my cool. However, it bothers so much especially when you are at the receiving end to see your relgion being mocked by some people in this forum. I wont blame the starter of this thread much, not because I am a muslim like herself, but because a lot of our christians in here lack decorum when posting their posts especially about Islam. A lot of christians knew less about Islam, and where some decided to be knoeledgeable, they do it in anti islam way. When you refutes what they write about Islam, thereby correcting the bad impressions they have about islam, they still stuck with their brainwashed ideas. Isnt that degrading and demoralising?
If we are here to criticise other peoples religion, it wont work, as we are not the same character wise, some people don't have the pit to swallow insult at any slightest opportunity.
Now, I will use your post above as an example, Islam is not (Mohammedanism), but Islam, but you still go ahead and call it Mohammediasm, isnt that offensive, provocative and insultive?
Islam especially in this modern day, do not indulge or ask people to join islam by force, that is not a correct notion about Islam. Afghanistan that you mentioned above is a third world country and they are under oppression, and you will agree with me that if any third world country had any problem with the super powers, it is the worst for it, because the superpowers control the media propaganda. Have you ever for once got any version of the news of Afghanistan? No, never, you can't get it. So the information you may have about what is happening in Afghanistan is one sided.
Like someone said elsewhere, all religion has its own flaws, don't pretend christianity is perfect. Let us maintain decorum in here as Orikinla demanded, and I hope it starts if we are tolerance, religious wise.
Re: Why Are Christians Always Trying To Convert You? by nairamar(m): 1:27pm On Jun 01, 2006
It's rather strange that we easily divide society by the manner of worship ie. Christian, Muslim etc instead of recognising that we all believe and worship the same Creator.

If I were to ask you "Do you believe in One God ?" Your answer will surely be "Yes" or even "Of Course"

So why do we then separate This One God into several ?

Your acceptance of One God, automatically makes you a Christian and also is the criterion for becoming a Muslim.

Another concern of mine is the Word God is English and The word Allah is Arabic, so obviously we Nigerians must accept that the Word Oludumare in Yoruba is equally important to us as well as Igbo and Hausa words too.

All of the issues and concerns we have are all borne out of language and translation and more importantly acceptance, so don't lose sleep over issues of religious differences.

As the saying goes, "You can't win an argument with a fool, because he has lots of experience at being foolish and will win by experience(sic)"

ok,,,,so all the accusations made about Islam are all false right?? they don't kill muslims for converting to other faiths right?, Mohamed did not marry and f*ck a nine year old right? they did not want want to kill the afghan tha converted to christianity right? they allow people of other faiths to practice their faith in islamic countries right? U guys see women as equals and allow them to do everything u allow your sons to do right?? U do not impose sharia laws on people in muslim states in Nigeria right??

Upbringing matters a lot. This is the kind of social misfit you get when you neglect a retarded baby and watch her grow into an uncultured, uncouth and unrefined young lady.
