Religion / Time For Proper Self Revaluation In Our Religion by adelee777: 4:34pm On Mar 17, 2019 |
We are just a dishonest, unpatriotic and ungodly human beings on the path of self destruction. A shame on our race. I totally agree with the following by Bar Ola Kunle Allison: Religion is not our albatross in Nigeria. It has never been. We are just a sick indigenous people blaming everything but ourselves. I just saw a short documentary on CNN about the Emirate of Dubai (an Islamic State) and her many disruptive and record-breaking technological/innovative strides, and my heart sank into despair. Dubai is NOT a country. It is just one out of seven emirates that make up the UAE. An Islamic country which declared independence from Great Britain in 1971. Yet, Dubai is the fastest growing Science and ICT hub in the world. Yes, you read that correctly; in the world! As I watched the documentary and marveled at the unbelievable leaps in education, innovation and infrastructure achieved within 50years, I began to compare the emirate with our own Emirate of Sokoto and Emirate of Kano back home. Folks, the difference is a universe apart. Did you know that the Emirate of Dubai has singlehandedly launched 2 satellites into Space? Did you know that the last launched spacecraft had the innovative signature of a Dubai teenage girl on it? A teenager who dreams to be the first astronaut on Mars. Did you know that by 2020 the Dubai emirate will be launching its first Mars Exploration Spacecraft? Did you know that the Dubai emirate currently has the largest number of foreign research Scientists and ICT experts in the world? This is a deeply culturally Islamic State prioritizing Science, Technology and Futurism. What then is different about their own practice of Islam and the ones we have here at home? What is different about their practice of Islam which encourages a teenage girl to aspire to Mars while emirates at home marry off under aged girls? What is different about their practice of Islam which prioritizes innovations and science, while even Churches back at home only prioritize buildings and tithing? Guys, religion is not Nigeria's albatross. Anyone who argues otherwise is thinking fallaciously. Nigeria is messed up because we have our own issues. Our orientation, our mindset, our value-system, our sociocultural ethics, our ways are deeply ANTIPROGRESSIVE! I just saw men in Arabic gowns and women in Arabic purdah (the moderate ones) having a dialogue about championing the next frontiers in science and innovations. Any so-called Christian who defends the kind of Christianity we practice in this country is part of the problem. For now, the Emirate of Dubai is the leader of the Arab World. A well deserved title. #truth is sacred Selah. Professor Isa Hussaini of Faculty of Pharmacy University of Maiduguri wrote: The blame for what Nigeria has become falls on you and me. Not Buhari, not Jonathan, not Obasanjo and definitely not Abacha. Our wickedness stinks to the heavens as we go about our daily lives, pulling down everyone and everything to become rich. We import substandard products, fake drugs and expired baby food unfit for human consumption and we have the nerve to complain about leadership? We even steal from widows, orphans, and refugees. We take their food and sell it for profit. No conscience. Nothing is sacred. No one is spared. We build substandard roads, schools, houses, hospitals, all for profit at the expense of human life;an invaluable item which all our profit and contract sum cannot buy. One would think this behavior is reserved for urchins but it would surprise you that this is the character of many decent looking people who appear to be normal but are not any better than Boko Haram members. They are church members, Muslims, husbands, wives and sadly youths. We pervert justice and pretend we do not know right from wrong just to serve our selfish interests. Slave traders pale in comparison to what we do to ourselves. We are wickedness personified. So much hatred flows in our blood and we transfer it to our children. It's evident in what we say and do. We have fasting and prayer sessions all year long, night vigils and deliverance when the actual problem is us. We simply cannot learn to love others . It is me, me, me. That is all that ever matters. It is sickening. Anyone who cannot love has no business in politics, Government and in Nigeria. Until we understand this, we will continue on this path of destruction. |

Religion / Re: Why Don't Muslim Fathers Allow Their Daughters Marry Christian Men??? by adelee777: 9:25am On Mar 02, 2019 |
Jman06: From my experience Hausa and Fulani girls prefer Southern guys as they are more romantic and liberal. They are only afraid of what will happen to them if they are discovered to be dating Southern christian guys. I had a Hausa/Fulani lover that told me this. The girl wanted me to impregnate her as she was too much in love that time. She was stunningly beautiful. This still seems to be an understatement in describing her. 1 Like |

Politics / Re: Buhari Again Takes Another Nigerian Sector Backwards by adelee777: 12:03pm On Feb 26, 2019 |
Goke7: You can't use that logic in the Nigerian system. Between Atiku and Bihari none is better. One is just worse than the other. For instance though a person like Donald Duke is way more educated and intelligent than El Rufai, he cant defeat El Rufai in an election. In Nigeria the more incompetent you are the more chance you have of winning an election. From experience majority of Nigerian voters are boneheads that reason with their arses. |
Politics / Re: SE Has Shoot Themselves In The Foot by adelee777: 9:59pm On Feb 25, 2019 |
Psalmy2cute: The reason is not just the low turn out of people in the SE, but the fact that Igbos indirectly campaigned for Buhari. There are many "neutral" Yorubas who would want Buhari to be kicked out of state house ASAP. These were pushed to support Buhari due to the Igbos legendary ability to make noise and insult (which always leads them to lose at the end). 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Religion / Re: It Is Not The Law Of Moses But God Himself That Tells Us To Give First Fruit by adelee777: 4:13pm On Jan 04, 2019 |
alBHAGDADI: Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. James 1:27. So, where can you magically fix tithes and first fruits in there? Note that I am not against people giving their tithes of first fruits if they have the conviction. What I am against is someone saying it is a commandment of God to Christians. It is either the person saying that is ignorant, or downright dubious. 1 Like |
