budaatum:
I don't know where you get your definition of pride from muttley, that makes you think it's a bad thing.

Pride becomes a bad thing budaatum , when it becomes a barrier between the person and God, because focus then shifts on to the perverted gift than the Giver of the original and/or unperverted gift

budaatum:
Are you one of the manna people who wait for intelligence to fall on you from heaven?

You're thinking out of your backside, if you've ever thought I am one of the manna people who wait for intelligence to fall on self from heaven

budaatum:
I wonder, by the way, if your yadayada isn't a pride thing. It would be typical of those who pervert their gift.

You're using and looking with the wrong end of the telescope mate and have come online in the wee hours typing nothing that makes sense

budaatum:
Do know that If we derived our pride from being stupid, we might have asked for that instead, but we value and derive immense pride and satisfaction from intelligence that we ask God for it always and God forbid we be not be proud that the Lord God Almighty would one day answer our prayers.

I have bumped into quite a few interlocutors who take pride and delight in being ignoranuses

budaatum:
As to our perversions. By our fruits, they say, shall we be known.

"¹⁵ Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
¹⁶ You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?
¹⁷ Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit."
- Matthew 7:15-17

Yep, we have been given advanced warnings(s) of them lot.

I wish Nigeria was trying to catch up Muttley..We wouldn't be in this chaotic state if we were playing catch up. We have instead,brought out a relaxing chair,sun glasses,an umbrella,an stack of vogue magazines and we've kicked back and relaxed.

More like, "brought out a relaxing chair, sun glasses, an umbrella, a stack of vogue magazines and we've kicked back" and died!

Hear this utter ignorance!

MuttleyLaff:

I dont mind science shaking and rocking tables or shatterring glass celings, all I am bothered about, is that science should make sure, that it itself, is standing on firm and/or solid ground, when being a table shaker. Science is good, science is useful, science is needed for explaining things, but science at times is meddling. Science should learn that some muddy waters are best cleared, by leaving them alone

As if God did not mean, "do science" when God said "let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground". Or can one do any of that by doing what you suggest above.

"There is nothing that comes from above, that the earth cannot take. All these tactics, that there are hidden games, you dont know about and cant fight, are successfully being used to emasculate and undermine the aspirations of any with visions of seeing or working for, a better Nigeria, on its feet and at full potential

... the journey of a thousand miles began with the first step of educating all the people in Nigeria who are entitled to vote in the election and/or sensitising PVC carrying voters that they have no business of choosing between the devil and the deep blue sea.

Youths can make can make a difference of the outcome of the 2019 February 16th election because more than 60% of Nigeria's population are aged below 25. With political fortitude and if no compromises, the right candidate with clear cut and spelled out digital ideas of how to transform the the country, alleviate poverty, turn the country into a construction site thereby give rise to mass employment, tackle the epileptic power supply problem with 21st century innovative solution etcetera will win but then, if people prefer another 4 years of between the devil and the deep blue sea, well, what more I can say than just, as you lay your bed ...

Who has bewitched us Nigeria?
The elitists and the corruptible biased media outlets who are all indifferent to the hardship, throngs of sufferring, woes and the unfortunate conditions of the common man, have seared their conscience and sold the country and its citizenry down the river.

Nigeria is at a crossroads, at an opportunity watershed moment, where and when we can take our destiny into our own hands, but the youths that ought to know better, the youths that should see visions, arent seeing nada, but, for crumbs on the table and floor, they have camped tent with the elitists and corruptible elements shafting the whole nation. They are pitching tents with those who once they get in power again, will turn blind eyes to acts of stealing the country blind"

As you lay your bed, lie in it. I didnt finish my sentence in the above red inverted commas with the "lie in it" last three words before, I have now. Enjoy the change. Mtcheew.

The key word in there was SOME. Nobi by force to raise peniis nah, nobi by force to be doing night vigil. Baba go and sleep jaare, stop showing yourself up

MuttleyLaff:
Baba go and sleep jaare, stop showing yourself up

Why, baba? My sleeplessness affects you somehow?

Ignorant people, are the sole problem facing Nigeria. Its so bad, it manifests as a fear of learning with the likes of you favouring sticking your heads in the sand but wanting what those who don't have. Yet, there's the lie. If you had not raised the bar and looked for more knowledge, would you not be stupid?

If you do well, muttley, you too would be blessed as those you envy. Try harder and you too will have pride.

budaatum:
Why, baba?

Its a word of endearment.

budaatum:

It affects you. Your sleeplessness is affecting the good qualities of your comments

Tell me something I dont already know

I dont stick head in sand. Now, if you dont outstretch your hand to take and receive a free gift, would you have the gift, well I dont take pride nor delight in being an ignoranus, so I outstretch my hand to cancel out any chance of being stupid

budaatum:
If you do well, muttley, you too would be blessed as those you envy. Try harder and you'd too will have pride.

I dont envy anyone, had never envied another. Without coming off as sounding self conceited or having false pride, I am a contented and blessed man. I thank God for His Faithfulness, Agape Love and Mercies towards my fam and I. God is Good. Take my advice, go hit the hay.

LoJ:

Now, are you claiming the specific article in question, did not provide total information and was deceitful?

I asked you this question last week, I think: What are root races of humanity?

How can one verify histories of these races are true? Thanks a lot.

Awesome.
