A Facebook user shared the photo and wrote "So,in the middle of the service, this man gets up and walks out. Emerges 7 or so minutes later with a newspaper and proceeds to read it. I don't do Amebo (busy body) but I almost asked him

"Dude,why'd you come??" #smh

So, he left the comfort of his home and airconditioned car to read flimsy lies on the pages of the new papers?


The village people after him are stronger than him

I don't condemn his action,after all there is nothing new that would be preached in the church,it's still from the Bible that sermons would be recycled,or maybe he has a different perspective of what was being preached because most times,these priests and pastors preach according to their own understanding and sentiments,thereby imposing their opinions on others.
Anyway he should have just stayed at home,maybe he acted under compulsion or trying to please someone or maybe it wasn't really a church service,probably a programme​ like a wedding or burial mass... But even at that....
Maybe he saw something interesting in the newspaper... Why am I even stressing myself...Mtcheeeeeeew

Nawa ooh,may be he is trying to come closer to the cross through newspaper reading.common sense is very expensive,why serve as an agent of distraction,if you are tired clean your bum bum and go,did anybody force him to come to church,he is reading newspaper and while the other person is busy snapping.sigh

probably one of those boring church/message. They tell u the service go end at 11.00 AM but whosai?it drag on to 1pm without any meaningful thing/message.

a lot of people read news I'm church on their phones and tablets.... Just that this guys own is (in Jay z's voice) unto the next one

Situation critical!!

I don't blame the man but blame the the person that snapped this picture

The preacher must be very boring.

Abiiiii

You wey dey use phone snap picture for church nkor?

Nigga got bored

his choice

He bought is on his way to church
Nothing una no go use talk story

Na monitoring spirit dey worry you. You leave church service come dey monitor everybody around you, you even monitor the time he left and the time he came back. And even get time to snap. Busy body.

The man might have gone out to take a leak, the Newspaper headline caught his attention and he was just looking to read later.

the sermon was boring or involves money

Maybe he was curious to read about Evans stories compare to pastor's Sermon.


But the person that took the pix self no try at all.


case of kettle calling pot black

The man was bored same as you,

I'd read newspaper in church rather than be a monitoring spirit,... He even went as far as take pics

Na wa

He probably came to church to mark register
This scenario is very common years back in the Anglican churches when sermon is unnecessary long
It used to be a sign of affluence then

The person that took the picture is no better than him

both of dem ee, d lord is dere strength walahi

Correct guy who understands religion is a scam

I am sure its about BIAFRA. it give so much headache

Are are we sure it is not after service, secondly, most christians I have discussed with lately, keep saying, dat, the preaching dis days are like repetation of words, so my advise, churches should come up with programs that will keep the congregation busy @ all time. , some of them have even started inviting comedians to spice up services!!

.

Hypocrites all over nairaland......what differentiates you from him when you are also fond of chatting on whatsapp, checking Nairaland, facebook, instagram, and others during church service....

You con carry phone dey snap anoda person wey prefer newspaper...

is it bcoz newspapers are far cheaper and almost 32" in size to ur 5.5" smartphone?

Abegiiii.....

we knw he type....

Na gal he find/follow go church....



wit im weak PENs

He must be an Arsenal fan

He is checking if at all Wenger has made any reasonable signing

And so?

OP, mind your own business!
