[size=13pt]You can not change my opinion regarding how i feel towards these so called cultist, i know what my friends & love ones went through, even to the extent of living the school or the beating my childhood got, just becos he declined their membership.[/size]

cultist as a lova? next thing u know u're Satan's mistress

@troee,like sillyboy mentioned cultism differs and i will advise you do your research again about pyrate ,we will never beat anyone to join us nor kill anyone, i am a proud pyrate member even though i left school since 1999, i shall still rmeain one for life.

@sillyboy,make you leave all this lobbers alone,wetin be your achor and how is your farm?

@ trooe.

What can I say about the unfortunate experiences some of your loved ones gat. But like i said, association differs and I wouldnt lie about the fact that some conf. are so irresponsible and "thugish". But we have the respected ones that wouldnt just take anybody. As a matter of fact, you will never be a seadog if you are not refined and have the ability to control your behaviours, attitudes and emotions.

Was it last year that some donations was made to the motherless babies home in Nigeria and it was published. My dad is a pyrate and he joined at Ife in the 70's and he got married to my mum. She knows and they still live together *(over 30 yrs.) up till now. If I must say, they are the best parents in the world to me.

Like I said, am not making case for anybody, am just trying to let you know that it's individual' decision either to be evil of good.

@ Carnal.

Please buzz me on YIM.

@ Plus_Queen

A times some people like you can be so dumb!. . . the fact that am a cultist doesnt prove that I killed anybody. So what blood are you talking about?

For your information, not all cult go about killing people or harming others. Some are strong networks and even does publications n national dailies for their AGM.

Am a respected Pyrate and am proud of me. Get some knowlege before you "shoot" dear

If this were true, you'd say you were part of a Fraternity, not a "cult". There are no "positive cults"

hmm. Like someone already said maybe you are confusing cultism with frats. All in all cults are bad in any term or language. Their is not positive way of say cults.

As you can see his s/n fits

@ Karmamod.

Am in no fit. I know exactly what am saying. When most people refer to cultism in Nigeria, they lump everything up. And moreover, what's the big difference in the english meaning of cult and a fraternity?. . Non is evil, but the two points to association of people who share the same beliefs and "devotion"

I would first of all like to say that not all cultists are killers.
Now, I schooled in Naija for a year before I left, and in that period, I noticed that the ladies liked liked cultists for different reasons.
Some are attracted to the danger.
Some are in it for protection. I remember a girl who used to hang with us because she felt protected. (_{Not that I say I am a member of any fraternity o!)}.

Cults is a word used to describe NEGATIVE associations.

There's a huge difference between that and fraternity.

Cant believe someone would go around claiming "oh I was in a good cult"

this is not only in Nigeria, anywhere you go and say you are in a cult people will look at yo weird. Remember a few years back when so people in a cult in America drank poison and all died, they were in a cult. My school has frats and all they do is drink and thorw parties. No I understand America and Nigeria is different but no one thinks it a big deal to be in a frat but say your a member of a frat and everyone will label you the lunatic. Infact google frat and cults and see if you get the same thing.

Now it depends on which definition you pick.

I have seen some really cool frat members. No violence no nothing.

@ Karmamod

Cults  is a word used to describe NEGATIVE associations.

Just like some religious association and social associations are described as negative ones too because of their names. Or just like some part of Igbo in Nigeria will describe Osus as an outcast and some Yorubas will describe Ijebus as been fetish and stingy because they are Ijebus?

Common, it seems you are not getting my point. I am saying it's quite wrong to label someone because of his social network or ubringing. It should be an individual assessment thing.

Dude you are the one that is labelling yourself with an awful title.

Okija_juju:

Maybe, just MAYBE it's because they belong to a frat and NOT a cult

Think it's a coincidence that "unorthodox" is in just about every definition of cult that you posted.

No sane person goes around claiming to have been in a cult. Say that here and see if they don't rush you to an asylum

@ Karmamod

. . . .I understand and respect your opinion perfectly even if you don't understand me.

From my ring-corner, a towel just got into the ring.

I Win!

KarmaMod:

I Win!

We are talking about cults FFS. You were bound to win in the end.

@ Karmamod

Common, I only made you to have that feeling of winning . .it's okay with me for you to have that feeling.

[size=13pt] @Sillyboy
Don't get me wrong ohhhhhh, am sure there are good cult members out there (maybe the older generation), but the youth of nowadays have turn the cult into something else.
I know some of cult guys, that re good, intelligent and down to earth, and have also accomplish sumthing in life, but majority of the cultists re just nuisances to our environment.
since ur fraternity re donating money, i won't mind if ur can fund my party this xmas
[/size]

Who wnat that your Oshodi gold that will make my skin turn green.] Im fine with my spoils o

@ Trooe.

Good you see what I was drivn at. Am not trying to brag here, but most o my colleagues did brilliantly well while in school and after school was fantastic in terms of appointments before I moved here.

Concerning your party, am sorry you will have to seek for sponsors who will use the party to advertise their services or products. We only get involve in humanitarian activities for the less priviledged and not "belleful" people like you guys. You guys have thats why you are throwing a party.

@ Karmamod.

How do you know it is an Oshodi gold that makes your skin green?. . . and this your sentence

Who wnat that your Oshodi gold that will make my skin turn green.] I'm fine with my spoils o
