a woman feeding the family alone is not a proof of women being better than men, it just simply means her either aint available or irresponsible. there are many single fathers also, and the children still drink milk

reserving my comments until i finish reading the book. not watching the movie yet, after the book.

Haha. I'm going to watch it this thursday. I can't wait. Woot for blasphemy (if God does really exist).

My point: I heard that in this movie, there are lots of blasphemys, so woot for them, as in if God does exist then they are going to pay in hell. It's just another way of talking. Lighten up, don't go around assuming crap

I'm agnostic, if you don't know what that means, look it up. If you do, good for you. This is exactly why most christians bug me, I made a SIMPLE sentence and you look at it 500 ways just to bring out a debate. I meant that if God exists then the Da Vinci Code crew will pay in hell. What's so wrong about that?


Think, please think: If God does exist, the Da Vinci Code crew will pay for it. I summarized all that in "woot for blasphemers". You know what I think really bothers you? The fact I said "if God does exist". Most christians are so close-minded. <<I doubt God's existence, I'm still waiting for a proof to actually believe there is a God>>, you want to kill me for that?

@2, one of the chosen? prove it!

Definitions of agnostic on the Web:

A word first used by Professor Huxley, to indicate one who believes nothing which cannot be demonstrated by the senses.
www.theosociety.org/pasadena/key/key-glos.htm

An Agnostic [1] [noun] [OW] embraces a worldview in which the existence of deity is unknown or unknowable. Derives from the Greek agnostos, a = without, gnostos = known or knowledge. "Agnostic[ism] [CE] was coined by Professor TH Huxley in 1869 to describe the mental attitude of one who regarded as futile all attempts to know the reality corresponding to our ultimate scientific, philosophic, and religious ideas."
members.aol.com/porchnus/dict01.htm

one who believes that the evidence for and against the existence of God is inconclusive. (agnosticism)
www.summit.org/resource/dictionary/

Agnostic: one who questions religious or spiritual beliefs, and who may choose not to claim any system of knowledge.
iamuniversity.org/glossary/cv_glossarylist.php

One who holds the theory that God is unknown or unknowable
www.innvista.com/culture/religion/diction.htm

Someone who claims that they do not know or are unable to know whether God exists.
www.abdn.ac.uk/philosophy/guide/glossary.shtml

[b]Agnosticism asserts no knowledge of gods and therefore concludes there are no reasons to believe in them or not to believe in them. An agnostic follows this credo and differs from the atheist who has developed an active belief that there are no gods. When it comes to the question of existence of deities, an agnostic will respond: I just don't know.[/b]designdynamics.org/dictionary.html

someone who is doubtful or noncommittal about something
of or pertaining to an agnostic or agnosticism
uncertain of all claims to knowledge
a person who claims that they cannot have true knowledge about the existence of God (but does not deny that God might exist)
wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn

Agnosticism is the philosophical view that the truth values of certain claims, particularly theological claims regarding the existence of God, gods or deities, are either unknown or inherently unknowable. The term and the related agnostic were coined by Thomas Henry Huxley in 1869 and are also used to describe those who are unconvinced or noncommittal about the existence of deities as well as other matters of religion. ,

all i gave you was a summary of the most important points there, so bro, if you dont belief God exists, you are an atheist. do you want me to google up atheist for you?

sorry, to take you back, but with the screaming aspect, u ladies are "saying", you fake it? i feel for your guys. d guy probably feeling he has "performed", while you were just stroking with your hand. that's torture (for the guy and girl).

and if you've got "magic sticks", we'll find somewhere for you to put it.

@retro
an agnostic believes God exists but is not relevant. your statement "if God exists" clearly points you as an atheist, else you might have simply said "God exists"

am currently reading the book, dont want to watch a cut down version in film. have it in DOC format.

European Union's Official Language


New EC Regulations
The European Commission have just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the EU rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5 year phase-in plan that would be known as "EuroEnglish": --

In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c", Sertainly, this will make the sivil sevants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favor of the "k". This should klear up konfusion and keyboards kan have 1 less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year, when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with the "f". This will make words like "fotograf" 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkorage the removal of double letters, which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of the silent "e"'s in the language is disgraceful, and they should go away.

By the 4th yar, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v". During ze fifz year, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaiining "ou" and similar changes vud of kors be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters.

After zis fifz yer, ve vil hav a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubls or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech ozer.

ZE DREM VIL FINALI KUM TRU!!



A Plan for the Improvement of English Spelling
by Mark Twain


For example, in Year 1 that useless letter "c" would be dropped to be replased either by "k" or "s", and likewise "x" would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which "c" would be retained would be the "ch" formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform "w" spelling, so that "which" and "one" would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish "y" replasing it with "i" and Iear 4 might fiks the "g/j" anomali wonse and for all.
Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with Iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and Iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants. Bai Iear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi ridandant letez "c", "y" and "x" -- bai now jast a memori in the maindz ov ould doderez -- tu riplais "ch", "sh", and "th" rispektivli.

The Clever Italian Mathematician

An recent Italian immigrant to New York wanted a job, but the foreman won't hire him until he passes a little math test.

"Here's your first question," the foreman said. "Without using numbers, represent the number 9."

"Without numbers?" the Italian says, "Dat is easy." And he proceeds to draw three trees.

"What's this?" the boss asks.

"Ave you got no brain? Tree and tree and tree make nine," says the Italian.

"Fair enough," says the boss. "Here's your second question. Use the same rules, but thi s time the number is 99."

The Italian stares into space for a while, then picks up the picture that he has ust drawn and makes a smudge on each tree. "Ere you go."

The boss scratches his head and says, "How on earth do you get that to represent 99?"

"Each of da trees is dirty now. So, it's dirty tree, and dirty tree, and dirty tree. Dat is 99."

"All right, last question. Same rules again, but represent the number 100."

The Italian man stares into space some more, then he picks up the picture again and makes a little mark at the base of each tree and says, "Ere you go. One hundred."

The boss looks at the attempt. "You must be nuts if you think that represents a hundred!"

(You're going to love this one!!!)

The Italian leans forward and points to the marks at the base of each tree and says, "A little dog came along and crap by each tree. So now you got dirty tree and a turd, dirty tree and a turd, and dirty tree and a turd, dat make one hundred. So, when I start?"

well thank you. i was afraid there for a moment that i[b]f i'm a white european[/b], i don't belong here.

r u? u r still welcom! we welcome friends of nigeria

come 2 think of it, where is the stats button? https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria?action-stats

enable PMs, if a user does not want it, he/she should disable it in profile settings. lost a lot of nairaland contacts when PMs were disabled.

_{@Z4M4EVa, where in this forum are you?}

otolorin, have sent u d file

dream -> i once had a dream in which rapture occured and nobody went. as in, we were all left behind.
actual -> that was in secondary school, i told a friend, and before you could say "arrhhh", i was a celebrity for about 2 weeks. too short

dream -> i was a vampire (a good one) fighting a lot of bad guys. didnt drink blood though
actual -> i read a novel "The Last Vampire" before I slep, so I guess my mind just acted out what I read

ok, so the guy had a bad past, whats his future?

hearsay

i have got the novel as a word document, still reading it. i also have a mobile ebook - "breaking the DaVinci code", obviously the church's response to the story.

kiwibabe:
There are three words in the English language that end in "gry".

bluenubian:
answer is LANGUAGE.

QUOTE from riddle: there are three words in "the english language", whats the third?, get it?

excuse me, why does the quote have to end after "language"?

hey, sentiments aside, keke's appearance did not have anything to with the "niceness" of the video. basketmouth was in the video too and the guy is alright. kenny, no way!

i think kenny should remain a background person, there are too many people who dont like his face on TV. have you seen Jazzman Olofin's Jump video. "kini kenny wa ni inu orin naa?"

Ouch!

Watching the video on sound city, and am like men, where have I been?

The video seems cool, but what is Kenny Ogungbe looking for in the video? Comments people.

downloaded some of "no clue's"tracks, and fast he may be, but he doesn't have the "flow" like twista or even krayzie.

a song is not just about the rap, i heard him and am like "so what?"

gimme krayzie joo
