Is anyone chasing u just yet?

Christ said the very opposite of His true church - Matthew 10:22 All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.


You can also flip that
Going by the amount of threads opened to vilify the Catholics , I can also use that verse in favor of Catholicism.


Bottomline: The more You claim to know, the less You actually end up knowing.

That is not true. What Christ meant by ALL men will hate you BECAUSE OF ME was that the authorities, those who claim to be the custodians of the law and religion would rise up against His true believers.
The catholic church of today cannot place itself on the same pedestal as Christ 2000yrs ago.

justcool:
1.) Catholicism is the only organised Christian religion.

Where did Christ come to establish an "organised" religion?

justcool:
2.) Catholicism is the only Christian religion that every world power respect.

Christ said the very opposite of His true church - Matthew 10:22 All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.

justcool:
3.) Catholicism is the oldest surviving Christian religion.

Judaism is even older and yet Christ rebuked scribes and pharisees.

justcool:
4.) Every other Christian religion today descended or branched out of Catholicism.

False.

justcool:
5.) The Bible is actually belonging to no other but the catholics-- it was the early fathers that collected the books and kept it within church, only for the priest to read and interpret until Martin Luther and Henry the eight branched out and made the book public.

King James was not a catholic.

justcool:
5.) Most of the major beliefs held today by other Christians were discovered and introduced by the catholics. - IE the concept of Trinity.

they are readily available to every 5yr old in the old pages of the bible.

justcool:
1.) If Catholicism never existed, your religion may not be here today since you descended from the catholics.

false again.

justcool:
2.) If not for the catholics, the Mus'lims would have wiped Christianity off the face of the earth. Remember the crusaders and how they dealt with the Mus'lims.

perhaps you forgot that catholics killed more protestants than the mooslims.

justcool:
3.) Catholicism is the only Christian religion that dares openly oppose Is'lamic killing. From the time of the crusaders till now, the Mus'lims fear and respect of Catholicism.

perhaps you need me to remind you that the late pope John Paul II bowed down before a qu'ran and kissed it and once "worshipped" in a mos'que.

justcool:
I agree that Catholicism is not christianty but also no religion is Christanity! True Christianity is a way of life and not any religion. Therefore since you are wise enough to know that Catholicism is not Christianity then you should also know that your religion too is not. The catholics are as much Christians as any of you born again Christians, Anglicans etc.

first time i agreed with you.

justcool:
please prove otherwise. Two last questions for you who seems to know who is a Christian or not:
The hatred for Catholics in your post, is it of Christ or of the devil?

there is a place for Holy indignation. Paul once committed heretics to the devil.

justcool:
Where did Christ say: Hate, judge and criticise those that are not of your religion?

He said . . . try every spirit whether they be of God.

Bendtner, Gilberto, Diaby, Hoyte all must go!

samba123:
The People of Makkah who witnessed that even when Prophet Moham'man invited them to believe.

why isnt there no historical record of this great feat?

welli:
yea that's all what mks him think back on d toasting days nd say my girl ain't cheap.but babes wait o, if we quick say yes them go say we nor just form we just jump put bt if we nor quick them go say we take am to d extreme.na wa o

You missed the poster's point by a mile. Playing hard to get briefly is exciting and makes the game all the more interesting . . . going to the extreme only helps to push the fellow into the arms of another.
Moderation is the key.

jennykadry:
pleased u say ^{*oh God what will i not see*} yes u guys will be pleased and at d same time always make her know everyday indirectly that she did the asking

Get to meet real men. Perhaps u've been hanging around small boys for so long.  

Cadet:
Guys, cut 4Him a slack! He just wants to wait until the lady makes the move What if she loses interest by then?

Depends on the scenario.  
If i know she's in danger of being snapped up by someone else and i really want her that badly i will damn the consequences and make the move.

Needlelady:
Get real pleeeeeeeeeeeez. Nigerian men will rubbish you if you make that move. Go getta!

i'm being real. Dont use the same brush to tar us all.

jennykadry:
no it should be the other way round , it should be[b] infact more insults await the woman in future[/b]

that one na small pikin moves. If a girl says she digs you, you shld be pleased.

AlfaPrime:
Well, unfortunately, its not only Govt money, it's also tax payers money, public funds, and precious govt/offical public time that is being spent on all these foreign travels. Much as we wish the president well in his health, no well-meaning, patriotic Nigerian will be happy to hear that about all these flying abroad for medical treatment. Height of hypocrisy. He has had a year now in office to have at least put the Abuja hospital in such a hi-tech state that a foreign trip would be unneccesary, but here we are, all talk and no action.

Plus 8yrs as Katsina state governor.

If the girl pops the question there's no harm in that. She likes you and is bold enough to say so is not an excuse to treat her any differently. Infact, much respect for such a woman.

I await the day the imaam would also be "deeply ashamed" of child marriage.

almondjoy:
Well, America might be the worst debtor but the greatest philantropist. I guess if they minded their business for a change without pokenosing in every other nation's affairs. . .they would not owe so much. 9 billion dollars in Iraq every month. . . from where? To achieve a personal vendetta against and "obnoxious" president without ties to "alqeada" or what ever "boogie man" America is afraid of. From borrowing of course!

1. Saddam had clear ties to terror organisations just like Iran is openly funding Hezbollah
2. That "boogie man" flew 3 aircraft into sensitive buildings in the US and killed 3000 innocent civilians in the process.
Perhaps our eyes will open when this "boogie man" acquires the nuclear technology to blast NYC into the annals of history.

RichyBlacK:
Dissent is the Highest Form of Patriotism

Especially when there are no mad mullah's to recommend death by hanging.
Its funny that the very few who dare toe the path of "dissent as the highest form of patriotism" prefer to do so from the relative safety of the west.

RichyBlacK:
Your understanding of the word "abuse" is suspect.

He is merely exercising his right to criticize US foreign policy, a noble exercise if I might add.

Perhaps you may show us how many more Iranian professors are "merely exercising their right" to criticize Iranian foreign policy especially in Lebanon and Syra . . . while living in Tehran.

RichyBlacK:
Even if that is true, why do you then criticize him for criticizing US policy towards Iran?

Simple. Dont abuse the very freedoms that are non-existent in your own society.

RichyBlacK:
It's all about choice! He has chosen to teach in the US, but that does not mean he has also lost his senses. If US foreign policy is bad, as is usually the case, then he should criticize it. If Iran's foreign policy is bad, as is seldom the case, then he should criticize it too.

It may not all be about choice. Isnt it surprising that they ALL choose to teach in the very same US they love to criticize?
Given a choice will anyone be willing to remain in Iran?

RichyBlacK:
It's all about choice! He has chosen to teach in the US, but that does not mean he has also lost his senses. If US foreign policy is bad, as is usually the case, then he should criticize it. If Iran's foreign policy is bad, as is seldom the case, then he should criticize it too.

The only problem is while he can openly criticize US policy in Pennsylvania, he dare not criticize Iranian policy in Tehran. The result is always either jail or a date with the hangman's noose.

RichyBlacK:
One wonders why the US is not interested in kicking him out of Iran "if he feels the US is so bad".

Its impossible to kick him out of Iran if he lives in Pennsylvania.

Richyblack, your report is tenous at best.
It starts out with a title like "a two faced west" and ends up being simply another compilation of alleged US foreign policy crimes.
Since when did the US become "the west"?

RichyBlacK:
Iran seized those territories because they've always been part of Iran. This is just another Western fabrication to make peaceful Iran look bad.

Funny . . . Israel also siezed the westbank in a defensive war because prior to 1949 it had always been a part of Israel. Speaking from both sides of the mouth isnt an especially smart attribute.

Afam:
Foreign arm of Iran's revolutionary guards?

I need a cold bottle of fanta, where is Nollywood? We have wonderful movie scripts on this forum.

No, you actually need to grab a history textbook and read about Hezbollah's birth in 1982.

RichyBlacK:
Do you want a list of the "covert support of terror" by the United States? The list is very long indeed!

Well if you have a list of terror organisations propped up by the US primarily to disrupt foreign governments then let us know.

YankeeBrit:
Some people will blame the Nigerian government if it happened in Nigeria - but in Congo - people pray to God for it never to happen again.

For how long will "God" continue to prop up flying coffins? Its not exactly his fault if your runways are covered with magma.

Incomprehensible

What pies are the Zimbabweans eating?

were you surprised?

One wonders why Professor Farbod isnt choosing to go back to teach in Iran especially if he feels the US is so bad.

RichyBlacK:
A very important excerpt:

"Iran has not attacked another country in more than two centuries, and it developed powerful missiles only after the US banned the sale of air force jets to Iran by all suppliers. Harsh rhetoric aside, Iran spends less per capita on its military than most countries in the region do. It can not possibly challenge the legendary military superiority of Israel, which fears US-Iranian reconciliation would diminish its strategic value to Washington and therefore make the occupation of Palestinian lands politically untenable."

Of more importance is Iran's covert support of terror.
It is an open secret that hezbollah is the foreign arm of Iran's revolutionary guards.

Both are examples of modern day temple merchants.

angeleses:
take China for example - is the human right abuse in Nigeria as gigiantic as it is in China? Is the yuletide of crime and apocalypse of murder in South Africa not worse than it is in Nigeria? Is ethnic rigmarole and economic conodrums not worse in Zimbabwe, Kenya, Egypt etc than it is in Nigeria?

No man wins a race by taking his eyes off the finish line and fixing it squarely on those behind him. Should we really be comparing our economy to that of Zimbabwe? Why is Botswana (with not a single drop of oil while we are the world's 6th largest producer) Africa's best economy?

angeleses:
We all need a gigiantic overturn of our medula oblongata in a way that will bring a parallel recourse to egotism and remove every iota of obtuse hatred and return it to a condrum of applaudable patriotism

If only grammar could develop a country, our own igodo megodo would have ensured Nigeria's safe passage into the comity of the world's most developed countries.
