ElRazur:I sense desperation setting in here. One fact remains that you guys cannot dictate to anyone what topics to comment on. This fact will continue to eat you up until you probably commit suicide. Facts don't lie and they don't change. Hit your head against a wall. |
4 Play:So now that you have found it very difficult to defend any of your positions based on bias you have resorted to making childish comments that are irrelevant? Well, I will address your concern and show that your thought process is flawed. 1. I address issues as they come, I have been specific on what I oppose and what I support based on the actions. 2. I have always opposed blanket condemnation and commendation and instead have supported blaming or praising someone or a nation based on specific deeds or misdeeds. I have never defended Mugabe for killing anyone but have always supported him for not bowing to pressures and blackmails from the West and in fact hope to see other African leaders tow this path. I have criticized Israel's killing of innocent people and use of disproportionate force while recognizing its right to defend itself based on the condition that such right does not give them the power to kill unarmed and innocent people. These are my positions and have always been. I can never see life the way you do because of your baseless blanket condemnation or commendation regardless of the facts on ground. |
Beaf:Is there any problem with the intake at NDA as regards these army officers? The higher you go in the military a lot of appointments become political and there is very little anyone can do about that. I guess you should focus on addressing early retirements of officers from certain parts of the country. |
stillwater:People that say what you say are usually very loose and would sleep with any man any day, so no need trying to make yourself appear decent at all. It's not working. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=455874.msg6145895#msg6145895 date=1275583391]so are you saying that it's ok for men to be sexist because women would do the same if they were in control? do you believe in gender equality?[/quote]This is how I deal with issues. 1. I change what I can change 2. I influence what I can influence 3. I learn to live with what I cannot do anything about. So, whether I am a sexist as you put it or not will not have any bearing to the issue. I already stated it should be both ways and not one sided earlier. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=455874.msg6145795#msg6145795 date=1275582596]ok. i think we are on the same page now ![]() i'm curious what your stance on polygamy is? are you christian? personally, i think it's sexist. that's the only problem i have with it beside it being against the bible.[/quote]Glad to know that we are on the same page now. Yeah, I am a christian. Became a christian by birth, glad it happened that way as I could have been a muslim if I had been born say in Iraq, Iran or Saudi Arabia. Like you, bible is what christians rely on even though to a varying degree of understanding and application. If you forget about the bible for a minute then polygamy seems unfair to women and should be both ways. However, do not forget the fact that many laws that seem to put the women at a disadvantage were actually put in place by men for their own selfish interests. I believe though that women would have done the same if they had the powers to make laws that would guide people and nations. Who knows, maybe by now men would have been responsible for cooking, changing diapers, taking care of the home while the women are allowed to run around town in the name of providing for the family. Before women liberation groups start attacking me the last paragraph was on a lighter note and does not imply that the place of the woman is in the kitchen even though it would make a lot of sense if that was the case, at least trips to Mr Biggs and co would reduce drastically. ![]() @stillwater, No comments. You don't deserve any. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=455874.msg6145643#msg6145643 date=1275581398]yea I agree not all monks are holy. just as not all reverend fathers etc. but i'm glad u said "SOME" not all. which means that those some have no self control or discipline and shouldn't be in the position they are. i don't think it's infidelity to have 4 wives. infidelity is when you cheat on your 4 wives with a 5th woman. i'm sure islam does not support infidelity. marrying 4 wives is called polygamy not infidelity. both are wrong anyways. those people who are open with their intimacy lives, as long as they marry someone who is ok with it. ex. people in open marriages such as will smith, hugh hefner of playboy mansion etc to me, that's fine. I don't support it but they are not committing a crime. but lying to your wife and cheating on her back to me is VERY WRONG.[/quote]Ok, polygamy is wrong? You see my point, to you it is wrong to others it is not. I guess your last paragraph cleared a lot of things up so I now understand where you are coming from. Of course lying about sex is wrong, just needed to let you know that there are people who don't lie about it, have multiple sex partners, do wife swapping, engage in group sex with the full knowledge of their partners who enjoy or look forward to such things. My point here is that we must be willing to accept the fact that not everyone is tied to the 1 man 1 woman till death mantra. Yeah, I agree with you no cheating. ![]() |
stillwater:Hypocrisy on display here. My comments and statements reflect reality where as people like you state things you even know are lies just to feel good with yourself. Today we have single parents everywhere, marriage breakups everywhere and both married men and women are engaging in all sorts of escapades and you pretend this is not happening? I am not a pretender like you so tell a kid what you have in mind, certainly not me. If you are ignorant about sex make it clear but don't come here and talk as if you know a thing or two about it when your comments show otherwise. [quote author=oyinda. link=topic=455874.msg6145455#msg6145455 date=1275579850]yea wrist watch is not intimacy. but u get the same satisfaction from getting them. ok let's say car instead of wristwatch. i'm sure many men will agree to get a car in place of having intimacy for a week. you will ultimately get a satisfaction from it. that's why infidelity is called "CHEATING" if you know you are one of those guys who feel the need to have intimacy with every woman, then don't get married or lie to a girl that you are her boyfriend!!! same with being materialistic. If you have the money to buy the wristwatch/car whatever, then you can splurge and buy as many as you want. as long as u are not stealing from someone to satiate your greed!!! what do you think about monks? i know that's an extreme case. but what's your opinion? are they "holier than thou" people who are trying to please everyone?[/quote]Monks? They made choices which I respect even though just like every other thing in life some of them would still engage in sex if they have the opportunity. We have reverend fathers impregnating girls, sisters who are in seminary schools getting pregnant, choir masters sleeping with female members of the choir and even pastors doing same with women members of the church. Now, there will be no end in sight on this issue because people see things differently. What you call infidelity may not be infidelity to another. Christianity is about 1 man 1 wife but Islam allows a man to marry up to 4 wives. Lastly, there are people who are more open with their sex lives than others and these people do not see what you see just as you do not see what they see. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=455874.msg6145275#msg6145275 date=1275578486]NO i did not say they will effortlessly do it!! I said the ones who lack discipline and self control will. if men are told from birth that sleeping around is their right, they will not have the motivation to build the discipline and self control. women have the self control because we are told from birth that if we do, we will be called sluts and love-peddlers. the same teaching is not taught to men so they feel that it's normal for them.[/quote]Sorry for not breaking my first sentence into two, the "effortlessly do it" part wasn't referring to what I claimed you agreed to. [quote author=oyinda. link=topic=455874.msg6145275#msg6145275 date=1275578486]for example, when u go to the store and don't have money to buy a nice wristwatch, do you walk away or go and steal money to buy it? depends on your level of discipline or how you were raised!![/quote]Wrist watch is not sex so the analogy does not apply. [quote author=oyinda. link=topic=455874.msg6145275#msg6145275 date=1275578486]the people who get intimacy whenever they want to me are like criminals who go around looting and stealing. it is definitely not proper. and the fact that you question if it is proper or not makes me believe you are one of those men!!![/quote]It really does not matter how you see those people who get sex whenever they want it just as they could see you as someone who could be worse as regards having sex with any man even though you try to portray otherwise. Now, as to whether I am one of those men my response to you is this - sex is not a crime as long as it is not rape and it is between adults without any partner taking advantage of the other in any way it is ok. I am not one of those who say things to please people or try to present a kind of holier than thou attitude in life, far from it. I know for a fact that some women if given the chance would claim they have never seen a naked man even if they already have 2 or 3 kids. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=455874.msg6145159#msg6145159 date=1275577650]no one said it's not normal to think about it. thinking and doing are not the same thing!!!! people who can't restrict themselves are people who have no sense of disciple or control that's my point!! for example, do you have the opportunity to have intimacy everytime you think of it? so what do u do when u think of it but there is no girl around? you control your urges right? do u have the discipline to control it even when there is a girl around? i'm refering to ppl without any sense of discipline. those who feel it's their "manly natural right" to sleep around. to me, that's just like stealing. yea everyone covets and thinks about good things of life. but does that give us the right to go and steal it if we don't have it? that's a trait of greediness and laziness to me.[/quote]I am glad you agree that a lot of people think about it and many if given the opportunity will effortlessly do it. So, that it is not common (the act itself) has more to do with availability and opportunity and not self control as you might think. Yes, there are people who get intimacy whenever they want it trust me and the issue of whether this is proper or not is another matter entirely. NB: Meanwhile why is Seun changing s-e-x to intimacy? |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=455874.msg6144883#msg6144883 date=1275575394]You are retarded!!! do u think only men notice aging in their partners!!? you think women don't notice the balding heads and potbellies of ugliness of their aging husbands? or only men have the right to be unhappy with it? why shouldn't women be able to go look for younger men if their husbands have become senile? and do u think the young girls who do follow these old ugly men are doing it because they like his grandpa looks? mtchew and then when the young women marry a man for his money, you guys complain and say she's a gold digger, she's waiting for the old man to die to get his money.what else do u think a young girl would want in an old ugly grandpa? african tradition ko, iranian tradition ni. the day america adopts that backward sexist practice called polygamy will be the day the world comes to an end.[/quote]Firing from all cylinders there! @topic, The funny thing is that many people think about a lot things when it comes to sex from fantasies to experiments than they would ever want to admit or divulge. Put differently, sex is something that is on a lot of peoples' minds but at the same time would not want to talk about it unless they are in the midst of others where any form of inhibitions must have been reduced to the barest minimum. Call it sycophancy or hypocrisy if you like but beware of those that talk and behave as if they don't like talking or getting involved in sex, they are usually the undisputed tigers in the room kpakpa. |
Lwandle:Exactly why I refused to engage him in any form of debate because he has taken the lies and propaganda of the West as a religion itself so arguing with him is a complete waste of time unless one wants to periodically dismiss any of the reproduced lies and propaganda. |
frosbel:You have severally proven that you are ignorant of a lot of things you get involved in. Keep fooling yourself, nothing new. |
Oba234:Maybe Seun doesn't know how to delete pictures or individual pictures on the forum so he just deletes the whole thread as the button to do so is bigger and clearer. ![]() |
@Beaf, Good luck to you on this issue with MyJoe, I have learned to avoid certain discussions especially when the other person does not have respect for facts or logic. You will continue to dance around with him in circles without any end in sight. Funny how the sanctions are interpreted by this man. |
Was the domain name purchased separately or was it part of a deal as is free domain attached to a hosting plan? In my opinion, Nigerians do not like facts and honest information about these things and that is why you see a lot of fly by night outfits claiming to be domain name or web hosting companies making impossible offers at ridiculous prices where Nigerians rush to use only to get disappointed in no time. So, was the domain name paid for by you? If yes, then they have no right to hold on to it. If no, then they can hold on to it since you never paid for it. However, since the company's website proper is not online it may be that the company itself may have gone under or that they cannot even access the control panel that can unlock the domain name in question. |
MyJoe:My dear, so if you state here now that OBJ is a woman you expect me to provide facts to challenge that? No sir, I will not do so. For the simple fact that you cannot even admit the role of IMF and World bank in the economy of Zimbabwe is enough reason for me not to debate that with you. There should be a minimum level of agreement on basic issues before engaging people in debates without which the debate will be meaningless. |
Beaf:You dey mind the guy. The latest trend here on NL is labeling others as ignorant when indeed ignorances radiates from the person accusing others. A Jew is talking and a bloody Nigerian is questioning? Can you imagine this? |
MyJoe:It seems you misunderstood me. I have more than enough facts to challenge some of the positions you stated but based on the extent you have gone by repeating some of the popular lies and propaganda it will be an uphill task making you see anything objectively hence my position on this thread. I respect facts, logic and common sense and I would not waste my time challenging the same lies over and over again because there will not be any end in sight. Sorry about this as I cannot oblige you. Get rid of the obvious lies and we can debate this. |
MyJoe:At a time I thought you were just reading a document sent to you from No 10 Downing Street. Unfortunately, you have gone way too far in swallowing the propaganda and lies that trying to correct them would not make any sense. So, feel free to believe the lies and propaganda you just re-read. Enjoy. |
tkb417:The quote wasn't related to kalo kalo. Just stating the fundamental theory of money making. The kalo kalo was directed at shares. |
bros1234:Why don't you defend the fact that you have over 600 domains on the server that your website is hosted on even when you do not have root access to the server? I think I know what the problem is here, you have never controlled a web hosting server directly so you may be unaware of the fact that there is a feature that allows you to state the actual offering and the advertised offering. |

asha 80:Trust me if you forget about sentiments and choose to base your analysis on facts and logic you will arrive at the same conclusions. For someone to make money someone else must lose the money (whether buying and selling or stealing or fraud) and if you don't know how the money is coming in (in schemes) then you may be one of those providing the money that others are making. |
Seems I am the only one giving you reason to post anything on the forum now since others have started ignoring your baseless posts, so let me make things difficult for you. I am done with this post as far as you are concerned. Enjoy the rest of the week. |
asha 80:Nope. I read Chemical Engineering. Worked as a process engineer and project engineer in the oil and gas before calling it quits with paid employment due to the hypocrisy and sycophancy in the work place. I am a realist and talk about what I understand hence my position on shares that I correctly labeled kalo kalo when people where rushing it. I was a chronic gambler in the university and gambled so well that people would come from other universities to provide funds just for me to gamble for them and I rarely disappointed them. So, I know for a fact what gambling means though I quit gambling the day I left the university. And it is the same thing with life generally, we could choose to allow sentiments guide how we think or how we see things but in the final analysis the facts of anything have little or nothing to do with sentiments.

[quote author=Xavier. link=topic=454664.msg6126118#msg6126118 date=1275335480]At d risk of sounding bigotry, ve kinda noticed that jarus' staunch support for Sanusi is based solely on religious sentiments and not sound judgement. Even Greece and the other PIIGS countries didn't not discredit their banks the way Sanusi did ours. Personally,I think its a shame for any sound economists to argue in favour of d sadist called Sanusi.[/quote]There is no risk here, you are clearly a religious bigot, not sounding like one. Did Sanusi save depositors funds belonging to only Muslims? Why don't you forget about the religion of Jarus for a moment and address his comments or opinions with facts, logic and common sense? |
ElRazur:Seems you type as your thought process dictates. When you cannot correctly make meaningful sentences how do you expect people to understand the nonsense you put down? You are guilty, have always been guilty and will always remain guilty because your thought process is faulty. What manner of a human being will claim that all sides are guilty or that everyone is wrong in a debate? Is this not madness? |
bros1234:You may call this unsolicited advice but I see it as a way of educating the prospective clients and your humble self because the industry has been messed up by people like you who misinform the public and call it marketing. I host sites for multinationals some of them have been on for more than 4 or 5 years. And the reason they are still there is because I don't misinform people and I provide very reliable web hosting. It might interest you to know that some of the popular web hosting companies even in the US use my article on "Understanding web hosting" on their websites to justify the realistic web hosting plans they have as against the fraud being carried out by those who fizzle out of business in no time. So, what I am doing is trying to sanitize the industry by exposing lies that you call marketing. Hope we are clear now. |
Dual Core:Tell him abeg, me I don tire. And when you want to guide them properly they see you are jealous. |
ElRazur:Your position - everyone is wrong (because you were proven wrong) My position - everyone cannot be wrong in any debate because it does not make any sense. You see why your posts are becoming irrelevant by the day as they are largely ignored these days by serious people. I warned you that you would self destruct when you embarked on this venture. |
ElRazur: ![]() For someone that is desperately trying to prove that everyone is wrong just because he was proven wrong to be writing this beats my imagination silly. Of course, even armed robbers have supporters so having people like you support each other even when writing nonsense is not new. Everyone cannot be wrong in any debate - get this fact straight, right it down, memorize it and even take it to the bank if you like. |
