Blitzerz:Ah ok I think I get where you're coming from. Well highly creative and intelligent people can have 'out there' ideas sometimes. Elon even thinks this reality is a computer simulation. I have my disagreement and reservation with their ideas coming from a spiritual place, but this is up for discussion and is related to the topic of the origin of consciousness and where our thoughts even come from. I view it as more of the natural variations that occur in nature, like how not everyone is equally naturally attractive, smart, fast, strong, creative or more. That kind of thing. Because if any group or species overspecializes it breads in weakness and can easily be wiped out if the environment changes. So I see this as more of an adaption by nature for humans to be born different in various ways. Like most of us can train all our lives and never been as fast as Usain bolt or fight like Muhammad Ali, or create good music like some classic artist and there is nothing supernatural about that. To be successful in life it's often a combination of natural born skill, hard work and lots of luck. 2 Likes |

The fact is they are real nut what it takes for you to have a genuine one is what most of them can't go through 2 too many fake people 3 of who are the ones seeking this kind of charms?usually the bad ones not the good people that's why most times it fails them.even a good Christian with adequate knowledge of God's word bullet can't pierce you if it does it can't kill you as far as it is not yet your time |

Yeah juju, jars etc do exist. Just like powers and wealth have levels and limits, juju have limits it can protects. For instance I doubt if gun odeshi can protect one from grenade or mine explosion at the war front. Another reason may be that the juju have rules and regulations guiding it's usage but some users don't follow it. All the same, I've never used one before but I've seen drug sellers perform odeshi using rings and beads on other people. |

jrusky:Your brain is dead if you dont know that there are powdery substances that can be blown to the face and will result into death upon inhaling, but empty skulls like you will call it charm. Telling me to come and see them display stupidity, that wouldnt be more or less than what I described above. If time travel was possible and technologies of today taken back to the year 1600s, fools like you would have called smart phones juju or witchcraft. Brainless fool, even going back to school can't solve your stupidity. You can now go forth and die. |

webmaster99: what you called jazz we called it poison. different cultures have different poison what you called juju we called it magic different societies have different magic formulae magic can be explained scientifically if you understand the formulae there is also illusion it can be used negatively as well have u heard of scopolamine and sodium thiopental. both are drugs derived from herbs. scopolamine-do as I tell you. sodium thiopental-for confession the two drugs act on certain neurotransmitters in the brain. if you want someone to kill someone, give him scopolamine and tell him who to kill. if you someone does something bad like stealing, give him sodium thiopental,he will confess to the 'bone. there are many drugs or herbs like that. |
