More things have been stolen in the name of religion than anything else in history. More people have been killed in the name of God than in all natural disasters in history.

Once a politician's name starts with Pastor or Reverend, run.

Stop this nonsense. Religion brought civilization and science. Atheism is the worst form of religion that doesn't come with social/human development nor support family bonds. It doesn't tolerate redemption and forgiveness.

It's like you were born yesterday. You were born into the traditional religion of your ancestors whether you like it or not.

They even have ticket?

Come to Iyana-Ipaja in the evening, those without shops pay to three different people between 5pm and 7pm... You'll see the tax collectors holding huge bale of money... They've now recruited women as tax collectors also

Sometimes, I wonder where the money is going to

If you feel you don't like the taxes, better leave the market for the association. In as much as you still stick around, then you would have to pay all levies proposed for the proper management of the market.

I am yet to see a parking ticket at home or abroad that does not boldly say "parking ticket"

Not sure how you came about such a thought

idealogical:
So, picture if a common ticket is now people being forced to pay for prayer. ?


Looks more like a parking ticket for Friday prayer.

I also think it's a parking ticket for Friday, cos most Muslims refer to Friday as prayer day. But a lot of pple are too confused.

Who is the person in charge of the prayers levy in the market?

You guys should call the attention of the local government chairman in that area attention to it.

Some hoodlums are using names dropping to extort you.

It's like you were born yesterday. You were born into the traditional religion of your ancestors whether you like it or not.

Sorry, buttercup, but you're wrong on so many levels here. But for time, I could write an entire dissertation dismantling the trite arguments you posed here, but I will just address two of the points raised in this short riposte.

First of all, don't you guys ever get tired of calling atheism a "religion"? Atheism is the absence of belief in deities, not a belief system itself. It's like calling baldness a hairstyle. Additionally, you're sliding down a very slippery slope by making a dangerous generalization when you suggest that atheism lacks social/human development or family support. I don't know if you heard yourself well, but your statement there reads like the words of a prejudiced bigot. Plenty of atheists were and are exemplary members of their communities, fostering strong family bonds and contributing positively to society (Tai Solarin in Nigeria, for example).

I also like how you boldly stated that everyone was born into the traditional religion of his/her ancestors, completely disregarding the concept of individual agency and the right to question and choose one's beliefs. You are the one who's naive here, and blind to the facts of reality.

My bro came visiting from Dubai for four weeks off-duty vacation in his father land. We went for shopping and he couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the prices of things.
i.e something he said he bought for 70naira barely three years ago(when he was still here) was now being sold for 800naira.
Long story short, he had to cut short his stay by moving his flight date backward because according to him, he's not feeling the country anymore.

PS: Someone here some days ago said "Nigeria is gone" ...right now, I am seriously wishing that that is not the case.
