If I may ask, what is your own defination of Education ; say generally ?

Well no matter what I say you seem determined to argue with it! I'm not sure why as it will not prove the existence of thing like mami waters etc.

Why not lets have YOUR definition? (Try and include formal qualifications, recognised institutions etc - Im sure they should be in there somewhere! LOL)

What has that to do with all humans being equal? We have MANY different religions and opinions of religion. Do you believe all religions and opinions are equal? It seems evident that there is more fundamentalism in Africa and the developing world than in the developed world. This is because the more educated someone is the less fundamentalist they tend to be.

This is rather a different topic than people believing silly legends of mermaids etc!

So who decides who is developing and who is developed ; who is more educated and who is less, how do you people even calculate these things

Well I'm surprised you don't know the difference between developed and developing!

Or indeed who is more educated?

Are you just being argumentative or facetious or both?

I see where you are coming from : So you expect me whose knowledge is above your realm of the physical senses to explain things to you ; is this not what I have been trying to tell you all night.
Compared to what I know your science is still in the pre-nursery stage.

YOU CAN NEVER UNDERSTAND IT WITH THAT

LOL!

That is the usual answer from someone who lacks education. It hides their ignorance.

If your so called knowledge is about things like mermaids that don't exist then you have no knowledge whatsoever! cheesy

Depends on your definition. Its not in any dictionary so not yet, neither is bootylicious!

Not sure on your other post, are you now saying you don't believe in mermaids etc? (My point from the beginning.)

Yes I realised my mistake. I had used your incorrect spelling (bootilycious) . I am pleased to see they use my spelling with is how is sounds.

Not that bootilycious or bootylicious has ANYTHING to do with people being ignorant enough to believe in Mermaids and juju etc!

Of course! But NOT mami water and mermaids etc. That is mistake that some of the fundamentalists make. If it was true then these things would be seen all over the world and not just where people are ignorant and superstitious!
Re: Water Elements And 'Water Children' by Nobody: 12:43am On Mar 16, 2015
I cant forget some years back conducting a deliverance for a lady that claimed to be possessed with mami-water spirit

She started manifesting like a mermaid during the section and glory to God she was delivered.

I think the Op need it more. I Scuba dived and snorkelled for over 15 years. And all over the world as well! I am pretty conversant with what is above and below the water!

I wonder if there is any correlation between the fear of water spirits and that fact that the majority(?) of Nigerians do not swim (at least so I am told and have found in about half the cases). Just a thought that may be well off base by the previous comment brought it to mind.

Good. I taught all my children to swim very early in life. I would take them snorkelling with me and the eldest could even get down about 20 feet below on one breath! (Although she used large fins to do so). On holidays we would explore the rocks and once were up beside a seal! I would much rather swim in the sea than a river and find swimming pools boring after a few minutes.

Well, I would implore anybody and everybody to believe woteva it is they want to but I tell you categorically, they do exist...In fact, I dated one and it took God's grace to free me from her...Not all of them are aware they belong to it and not all are harmful except you get on their very bad side...A Shocker I have for you is this...I am an Air Element and have tried breaking away for so long...Still on the matter doe...E.S.P and Clairvoyance used to be my strongest points but faded away after constantly telling People about...
Bottom line, there is a God and he created different Creatures for different purposes...Like I said, believe woteva you want to...I write from my own personal experience.

Bro, I believe you oo.

At about the age if ten, I noticed that some kinds of people actually look at me and then bow their head a little without saying anything and walk away.

When I told my mom about it like 3 times, she said maybe I am one of them....one if what I asked? and she said nothing.

After a while ..this stopped entirely. I understand much better now especially when she narrated some things to me.

Fact not opinion. I love Nigeria and try and get business to invest and come. I tell them about wonderful opportunities and an educated workforce. THEN they see rubbish like this! How could anyone so silly expect to be employed in any responsible position?
