Sure, let's go back to the days where religion controlled everyone's lives and the concept of freewill and basic human rights were swept under, the days where society dictates it's laws to tell you who you are even if you aren't hurting no one, the days where women couldn't choose what to do with their bodies but the choices were left to men, the days we were told the TV is the devil's box, yea, that's rich, I'm so looking forward to going back to primitive times


Society is still dictating to people and telling them who they are, society has just changed requirements and widened the scope of judges.

Today, society is dictating that virginity is outdated and acceptance is only based on your willingness to have sex out of wedlock. Society is telling you if you aren't clubbing and smoking, then you aren't living life. Society is telling you that being a babymama is fine, and people should not be held accountable for their actions.

Today, society is glorifiying criminality because the government and politicians have made things 'difficult'. Today, society is telling women the skimpier the clothes and the lighter their shades, then the easier they can be accepted. Society is telling women that theie bodies are ugly and they need to constantly change it for the approval of men, society is spreading the belief that old age is unnatural, that every sign of aging is like a disease that must be cured by surgery or 'skin care'. Society is telling women that their vaginas are more important than their brains, and telling men that you don't need to be a human being, as long as you have money.


Society is selling depression in large doses.People are feeling sad, people feel unwanted, people feel pressured to be who they are not, to please people who don't care about them. Yes, this generation is having such a great time with civilization. Peep the suicide figures for a greater appreciation of modernity

Okay, people like us as here to help you guys speak what you have chosen to keep a blind eye to in the Bible.


Stop being hypocritical, nothing like the good old days, humans have always been humans and even more barbaric in those times....
No
Let's take good some examples of barbarism and sexual immoralties condoned in the Bible.

1. Sex between Lot and his two daughters
2. Jacob marrying two sisters
3. Yahweh allows you to take women as spoil of wars... If you have seen Games of thrones, it's same way the Dothraki tribe do theirs
4. Rape is condoned, you can marry a girl once u have forced your way into her, then pay her bride price.
5. Samson did harlots., Yahweh was cool with it.
6. Yahweh smote a man for not impregnating his brothers wife
7. Even your Jesus genealogy was a product of incest, harlotry and casual sex or have you forgotten the story of how Judah, 4th son of Jacob mistook his daughter in law Tamar for a prostitute and slept with her

.

Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man intimately. But all the girls who have not known man intimately, spare for yourselves. Numbers 31:17-18.

These days, we have FREE WILL And the CHOICE

that is the difference

you will not know the value of those two until its taken away from you (Ask the Saudi's)

These days you can CHOOSE to be whatever you want to be..

you know right and wrong and you can CHOOSE to do right for your own happiness

These days you can CHOOSE to be a Virgin to be at peace with your God and to keep away from STD and to be away from emotional entanglements; not because you want to please one Man, or seem "valuable" to a man

You can CHOOSE not to go clubbing because you have better things to do wity your time, and you don't want the health risk of smoking anyhow or excessive alcoholism


Choices and Freewill are the greatest gifts of the 21st century
those who choose to go the other way accept the consequence of such acts.

Society will always set standards
the difference is that today we have choices

OP you have not heard of open marriage, if you try to condemn this insanity ,they will attack you with all kind of names, forgetting no matter how you plan to enjoy this world, the life itself is temporary and very short, at an advance age, sweet things will start disappearing from your mind, you will start thinking more of death than being alive, at a point you will start praying for death and people around you will be waiting earnestly for you to kick the bucket so that they take turn of another celebration on your head....

It is unfortunate why some people think everything ends here...

Am I really choosing, if my choice is made under duress? Am I really choosing, if my choice is borne out of a need to be accepted by people? Is that free will?

Do you know how many womem have been pressured into losing their virginities because all their friends are doing it? Do you know how many people feel disgusted with themselves for giving themselves away like that?

What is your definition of free will? Because a lot of you do not understand the psychological undertones in these things. When your mind has been enslaved, you do not have free will. Free will is a farce in today's world.

if nigeria can focus on development, our churches will preach less of prosperity messages.

People are hungry. Tell God to help fix nigeria. Many families cant eat, what do u want them to do? They will simply agree sex before marriage if it can help solve their financial problems

The suffering in Nigeria is much.

Many girls are in school and their parents send them just 5k per month.

Corruption every where. Poverty capital of the world.

Op, those days can't be reversed unless if God's words about end time won't be fulfilled. Those days can't be reversed unless you go back to your religion and culture as an african and discard a borrowed culture that allows indesent dressing and lack of respect for moral values. Also go back to your religion that you can't swear with its God if you are found guilty of any offence because of fear of immediate judgment by thunder possibly,that might scare the hell out of those polithiefians that swear with a religion book and still go against what they swear to. Discard a borrowed teachings or culture via religion that allows women to climb the podium and spew thrash about "no man dictate to you what to wear"because of freedom and equity

OP, scripture must be fulfilled.

Daniel 12:4 (KJV) But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased

2 Timothy 3:1-5 King James Version (KJV)
3 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away

I don't understand the psychological undertones to these things? Lolol Lmao cheesy grin cheesy

There is a reason why you came to this world with parents and you are from a family

They have been here before you, and they are to GUIDE you for the first few years of your existence towards what is good and what is bad, and the consequences of each action

When you have been properly guided AND FULLY understand the consequences of each action, you are less likely to "make decisions under duress"

Nigeria for example is a failed, finished country; and what contributed to its failed and finished state is the FAILURE of the parents to raise BALANCED individuals the PROPER way...
what they did instead was to raise docile subservient punks.

That is why you hear most of this duress thing

For example, a daughter who was raised well by her father, and given a healthy dose of self esteem will be less likely to "give herself up" let me use your words under duress....

she values herself so much, and would rather enter into sexual relationships when she is ready for it (not necessarily when she gets married)

A man who was raised properly by his own father and is balanced is less likely to seek validation elsewhere
He got that at home already, from people that really love him.

why do these black boys in America try to seek validation by joining gangs and all that?
most if the time, there is that hole in their lives that their fathers did not fill, and they go out there to fill it....

My point is that with proper parenting and a good family structure, in the era of free will and choices, one is more inclined to make better choices

Then being forced blindly to do things


PARENTS have a huge role to play in the 21st century
you may not like the world the way it is
but you can't change it...
but then
you have to raise your kids right

And BTW it's father's day

happy father's day to all father's out there
Please let us continue to play our God given role in raising BALANCED kids.

Isn't it easy to put it all on parents? How many parents can even effectively parent these days?

Did your father ask you to have sex out of wedlock? Is it your parents that told you there is nothing wrong with pregnancy out of wedlock? People who steal, is that what their parents taught them? Did someone's father tell him that Yahoo is the best way to make money? Is it parents that tell their kids to kidnap? Do you know what efffect human interaction has on people? Is it not this world that children from strong, Christian backgrounds easily fall into 'sin'?

So, we should omit the influence of peer groups, social media, educational institutions, on the way we think, act, and conduct ourselves, and put it all on Parents? Did you do Social Studies in school?

You have just proven that you indeed, are limited in knowledge as regards psychological influence.

Happy Father's Day, I hope that your children reflect all the values you teach them when they grow older, I highly doubt you are a parent yet, though.
