. . .not every bad habit. . .

^
Why is it a bad habit? What criteria di you arrive at determining that it was bad?

coogar:
how? draw it out of his scrotum or what?

^
Modified my post to include electroejaculation as just one example.

Joagbaje:
Coogar I just asked a question and I'm waiting for their response. What of those who do sperrm test in hospital . They have to mastubate to bring the semmen out. Is it a sin or a medical or biological thing.

^
From the medical perspective, they don't have to mast[b]ur[/b]bate to produce se[b]m[/b]en. . .alternative modalities like electroejaculation exist for those who may object.

. . .by and by.

The word "Trinity" is human reasoning. No matter how we spin it. . .it means three. And the diagram by Athanasius clearly shows that:

despite the attempt to say it represents one.

Consider this; Jesus said to the woman:
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
(Joh 4:23)
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
(Joh 4:24)

Are we saying now that God has another Spirit - called the Holy Spirit? Whereas Jesus says God is a Spirit.

The clear teaching of Scripture is that the Father is God and Jesus is God.
Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; (Heb 1:3)

Is the brightness of God's glory; the express image of God separate from God? I think not:
Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?(Joh 14:8-9)

Who did Ezekiel see here?
And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it. And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
(Eze 1:26-28)

. . .interesting responses to the OP.

Words convey ideas. The word "trinity" is a Greek philosophical construct to convey a certain idea about the nature of God. But I believe it is inaccurate and does leave room for erroneous ideas and interpretations as demonstrated on this earlier thread here.

When Jesus says "I and the Father are one": What comes to our minds? That He is separate and stands somewhat apart from God the Father? Does scripture in anyway explicitly teach as the "trinity" suggests there are "three" persons in God?

Though I disagree with Frosbel concerning certain of his views regarding the West and Israel, on this I find 100% concordance with him so I reproduce in full his post with just one emendation.

frosbel:
Because God is not 3 but 1 , expressed who has shown himself to men as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

The concept of Trinity , where we have a godhead with the Father as the head, Son in the middle and Holy Spirit at the bottom is just plain false and not at all biblical.

Jesus Christ is the express image of the person of GOD , He is the radiance of God's glory, He is the Alpha and Omega , he is GOD.

"The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven." - Hebrews 1:3

He only became a little lower than the father because he humbled himself as a man to die for our sins. This is the great mystery.

You will ask me , if Jesus was GOD , then where was the father.

Answer :

"If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?[/b]Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works."


"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: [b]God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." - 1 Timothy 3:16

"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." - Isaiah 9:6


Look at this striking comparison between Christ and God , from the new testament and old testament.

New Testament :

"The hairs of his head were white, like white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire, 15his feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters." - Revelation 1:14

“As I looked,thrones were placed,and the Ancient of Days took his seat;his clothing was white as snow,and the hair of his head like pure wool;
his throne was fiery flames;its wheels were burning fire.A stream of fire issued and came out from before him;a thousand thousands served him,
and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him;the court sat in judgment,and the books were opened." - Daniel 7:9

1. Do you believe that God is ONE? Yes

2. Do you believe that The Father is God? Yes

3. Do you believe that Jesus Christ is God? Yes

4. Do you believe that the Holy Spirit is God? Yes

Jarus:
Looks like witchhunt to the freelance activist to me.

And how is this witch-hunting? He should go and clear his name in court. Comments like yours show just why tackling corruption is hard in Nigeria. Here is a man who held a position being called to account for his time in office and you call that witch-hunting?
I used to think you were one of the more objective guys on this forum.

Real Jews

^
What makes them real? They could be false Jews for all we know.

@Gbawe:

It does appear that you are embittered and losing it. . .since your much trumpeted coup and revolution following on fuel subsidy removal has not materialized (even your preferred presidential candidate is now an appointee of GEJ.)  

A lot of your caviling here shows a lack of objectivity and a failure to critically analyze the issues:

Gbawe:
. . .the best GEJ can come up with is 5 years in jail, or a monetary fine   ,  for terrorist and their sponsors.

^So the President has now become both Judge and Court of Law to be dispensing sentences. He has done his part by signing into law the Anti-Terrorism Bill. Direct your complaints to the judges and courts.

Gbawe:
Shall we talk about Zakari Biu? What has happened to the Borno Governor in whose Asokoro lodge Kabiru Sokoto was first arrested?

^Please do tell us what happened to the Borno Governor? Your emotions cloud your reasoning. Firstly, the accounts of the initial arrest of Sokoto in the Borno Lodge do not directly involve the Governor. So in your mind: he should be arrested on the rumor of a suspicion. Yeah right, then the same you will come shedding buckets of hypocritical tears about GEJ's abuse of human rights. Secondly, do tell us how a sitting governor can be removed from office (assuming as you do that he is guilty).

Gbawe:
What about Ringim being 'retired' rather than sacked outrightly for the escape of Sokoto that was the apex of his many other failings?

^Whether "retired" or sacked, the objective of removing Ringim from office was achieved in a pragmatic fashion. I can see you are a faux-democrat who revels in dictatorial tendencies. Since the lately departed IG was not found guilty of a misdemeanor or malfeasance in office, why should he have been sacked except to gratify impulses like yours?

Gbawe:
They say they have Boko Haram's most recent Spokesman. Yet what action are we seeing? What difference has this made to the attacks and killings? In serious nations, the capture of the spokesman of a terrorist group would ordinarily become a valuable asset in fighting that group. Instead in Nigeria, because of the collusion you allude to, Abu Qaqa is 'worthless' and we are only getting ridiculous kumbaya information from him.

^Make we hear word: did you even think about the sentence you wrote above. So covert intelligence gathering and actions should be announced to you beforehand so that you can "see action". Yeah, right.  

Gbawe:
While America is assasinating terrorist and instigators of terorism, without any judicial trial whatsoever, Nigeria is granting them bail (Ndume), avoiding them (Borno Governor and many others) or trying them in Court and handing them 3 years jail sentences (Konduga).

^Please! Name one American citizen that the Americans assassinated due to involvement in terrorism. So because America uses extrajudicial means, Nigeria should do the same. And then the same you will come and be asking that Al-Mustapha should be hanged for extra-judicially assassinating Mrs Abiola. The arrested terrorists deserve their day in court. . .just like Abdul-Muttalab. Moreover in your haste to hate and castigate; you forget that it is the extra-judicial murder of Mohammed Yusuf that provided the major grievance for the rise of militant Boko Haram.

Gbawe:
People should wake up to see that , for the GEJ Government, this is not really about genuinely battling and destroying 'enemies'. If it were, we would see Konduga, Ndume, Biu, Qaqa, Sheriff, the Borno Governor and others treated very differently as the gravitas of terrorism automatically and naturally demands.

^ You take yourself too serious. The root causes of BH are political and ultimately will require a nuanced political solution with the right balance of stick and carrot to solve. Obviously if you weren't so busy hating GEJ; you would see that.

^Yeah. There was a certain poignant resonance at the end. I had read the book by Thomas Keneally even before viewing the film. . .and yet I had this powerful emotional response. I guess it was because it was a true life story. And the film so powerfully depicted it.

Remember the scene of the little girl in the red dress?

GenBuhari:
Look at it this way:

Obasanjo a genocidal dishonest and biggest looter in African history tells us Abacha looted Nigeria without providing evidence.

Buhari a honest an insidiously dishonestman, who is fiercly hypocriticallyanti-corruption tells us Abach never stole.

^Emended to better reflect the reality.

GenBuhari:
Who should we believe?

^All 3 are thieves.

TRUTHTELA:
But Abul Qaqa said, “The claim that we have nominated some people to negotiate dialogue on our behalf is also an outright lie. We have not yet nominated anybody.

^The highlighted part of the statement is somewhat revealing.

TRUTHTELA:
“Abu Dardaa had only used the name Abul-Qaqa in ‘representative capacity’ and we strongly believe that he will not give any vital information to the security agencies that will frustrate our insurgency.

^I thought they said the arrested man wasn't Abul Qaqa?

It seems that BH is feeling the strain somewhat with their operations severely disrupted by the security agencies.

[quote author=tpia@ link=topic=857770.msg10125412#msg10125412 date=1328432738]key word here is desire.

what you desire, rules over you.

and yes, the context seems negative.[/quote]Agreed the key word here is desire but as you see in 4:7, it's not the way you put it. You say: "what you desire, rules over you.".

Looking at Genesis 4:7; Sin desires Cain. Would you say that Cain rules over Sin. The key to understanding these two verses is the realization that in Hebrew, their construction is exactly the same except for appropriate changes in person and gender.

Genesis 4:7. In that verse we read, 'and his desire is unto thee.' The meaning in this context is that what sin desires is what Cain will carry out. His desire is unto Cain in the sense that Cain is a slave thereto, and must perform whatever sin's desire may be.

The Hebrew word translated "desire" occurs only 3 times in the bible and has the same syntactical setting in 3:16 as in 4:7 only 15 verses away. Thus we understand that: The woman has the same sort of desire for her husband that sin has for Cain, a desire to possess or control him. This desire disputes the headship of the husband. As the Lord tells Cain what he should do, i.e., master or rule sin, the Lord also states what the husband should do, rule over his wife. The words of the Lord in Genesis 3:16b, as in the case of the battle between sin and Cain, do not determine the victor of the conflict between husband and wife.

These words mark the beginning of the battle of the sexes. As a result of the fall, man no longer rules easily; he must fight for his headship. Sin has corrupted both the willing submission of the wife and the loving headship of the husband. The woman's desire is to control her husband (to usurp his divinely appointed
headship, and he must master her, if he can. So the rule of love founded in paradise is replaced by struggle, tyranny and domination.

Experience corroborates this interpretation of God's judgment on the woman.

theosci:
If this is so, wouldn't it be Jesus who has authority over the church? Then it wouldn't matter who the pastor was because both the pastor and the church answer to God's authority. The pastor is merely God's servant, God is the authority over the church not the pastor.

The point being debated is if women are supposed to teach in church. Not Christ's authority. Teaching goes with spiritual authority and God has commanded not suggested that women should not teach in church.

The bible is a book of types and foreshadows of Jesus and His bride -  the Church. The relationship between the Man and his Woman is a type and foreshadow of Jesus and His Church. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. (Eph 5:31-32)

So the Man preceded the Woman and before the Woman could come forth, the Man had to figuratively die by sleeping and receive a wound in his side, and lose some blood: And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; (Gen 2:21) Similarly the Heavenly Man died and received a wound in His side, shedded blood before the heavenly bride came forth: But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. (Joh 19:34)  

And so it is written:
But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. (1Ti 2:12-14)

But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. (1Co 11:3)

Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. (1Co 14:34)

It is interesting to note that anticipating that some will argue against this command: Paul declares in v36-37: What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only? If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. (1Co 14:36-37)

You proponents of female "pastors" and "bishops" ignore the commandments of the Lord.

theosci:
Also, your reference to Jezebel has no reasonable connection to the idea that women shouldn't preach. Jezebel was an evil woman who defied her husband's (King Ahab) authority to get not only him, but the nation to worship Baal. Even if she had been a man, she would have been punished for her wickedness. If you are trying to find an example of how a woman got punished for preaching, this is not a good example. She neither preached about God nor followed Him.

We are discussing women teaching in church. A woman can preach, she can prophesy, she cannot teach in church. Jezebel is an example of a woman usurping authority. Even your words "Jezebel was an evil woman who defied her husband's (King Ahab) authority to get not only him, but the nation to worship Baal", shows the spiritual connotations of her usurpation of Ahab's authority.
You say: "She neither preached about God nor followed Him." It has little to do with the content of her preaching. Rather it has everything to do with the spiritual ramifications of a woman acting outside her God-given role. Or do you think the woman mentioned in these verses: (Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. Rev 2:20), did not preach about God or think she was following God?
Jezebel true to her name usurped authority over Ahab. Read again her role in the affair of the Jezreelite, how even Elijah fled from her. Consider her influence over Ahab which prevented him from fully yielding to God and only partially repenting. She practised witchcraft and sorceries. Her daughter Athaliah almost destroyed David's line. It is therefore not a surprise that the Lord calls the false female teacher Jezebel. That name ought to serve as a flag directing us to study the character of the original Jezebel.

All female "pastors" and "bishops" are spiritual descendants of Jezebel and are under a delusion arising from spiritual pride and prophetically speaking they are Jezebels being un-husbanded.

theosci:
I have my own example, Queen Esther. She spoke up in King Xerxes' court, something that would have been punishable by death for any woman (even the queen). However, was she punished or reprimanded. No! She found favor in the King's eyes and she went on to save Israel from certain death. She not only saved Israel, but also lead King Xerxes to God. She prophesied. Was that wrong?

Not a good example. The fate of Vashti and Esther's trepidation at approaching Ahasuerus shows that your conjecture is flawed. She was the king's consort and her prestige and perceived authority came from her attachment to the king. She saved her people by going to the king as the king's wife and making a request.
And the king said again unto Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? and it shall be performed, even to the half of the kingdom. Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request:
(Est 7:2-3)
What did the petitioner Esther teach Ahasuerus here? Ahasuerus could depose or kill her on a whim. As for "leading King Xerxes to God"; in which Bible did you read that? Stop reading bible verses through your traditions and preconceived notions.

. . .4 pages on a settled matter.

It would appear we have come full circle to Genesis 3. The tragic events of that chapter are echoed in 1 Tim 2:13. The Serpent beguiled the woman through her desire to usurp spiritual authority over the man and thus paved the way for the fall:
(Gen 3:6)  And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

We know the woman sought spiritual dominion over the man by her act in 3:6 and from these words in 3:16:
Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

What do the words "thy desire shall be to thy husband" mean? The construction and meaning is exactly the same as in 4:7: If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.

God's established order is that the woman should not teach or hold positions of spiritual authority over the man. It was so before the fall. And before expelling Adam and his wife from the Garden, God re-established that authority by emphatically declaring: . . .and he shall rule over thee. The reason for that is clear. The relationship between the man and the woman is a type of the relationship between Jesus Christ and the Church. The Family echoes the Church. Otherwise can the proponents of women "pastors" tell us why these words appear:
(1Co 11:3)  But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.

(1Co 11:10)  For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.

There is a lot of quibbling on this matter because the sort of witchcraft spirit that actuated Jezebel has found its way into the church. . .and so we see women forsaking their God-given roles and following Eve's footsteps. But God will rebuke them:
Rev 2:20  Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

For those who are unfamiliar with the story of Jezebel (it is interesting to note that the name Jezebel meant Un-Husbanded or Unmarried); a study of her career and relationship with Ahab should shed more light.

What example ought Christian women to follow? Certainly not that Jezebel.
For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
(1Pe 3:5-6)

When I returned from Saudi Arabia, my mother encouraged me to join the Shite Sect.

^Now why would the mother do that in a place where majority of Muslims are Sunni. . .unless she herself and several in the family were Shia. . .a fact that LagosShia himself has confirmed for us thus showing that the story is authentic.

LagosShia:
i personally have heard from more than one person that the Emir of Kano,Alhaji Ado Bayero is himself a Shia-Muslim and has visited the holy city of Najaf where Imam Ali (as) is buried.

My grandfather Ado Bayero stands high amongst the wealthy men in Nigeria, but I forsook all of that money that cannot give me joy and peace. The word of God gives me joy forever. Not all of the wealth of my grandfather can give me that kind of joy.

We have many who have known that joy today. People like Rev. Shehu Galadima who was a Sheik but today God is using him for the Gospel. We have the grandson of the former Sultan of Sokoto, Evangelist Mustapha Dasuki, we have Rev. Dalani, Prophet Isa El-Buba, Pastor Isa Bello, Rev. Tunde Olufowobi, Pastor Waziri, Evangelist Blessed Usman JP, Lady Evangelist Aminata Esther Jokolo, Rev. Dasuki, Rev. Mahmud Ado Bayero and three grandchildren of the Emir of Kano. All of them and many more have tasted of the power of the Gospel of the living Christ! I tell you that very soon that the gospel will be preached in all the emirates councils. What I say to God is “Give me this land of Muslims, give me these emirates councils, give me these sharia states” and by the grace of God, we will capture them all for Christ.”

***This testimony of Paul Ado Bayero was taken from the book The Violent Truth of Islam by Brother B.U. Othumanu and Paul Ado Bayero; pages 1-14***

@Topic:
Why not a Philosophy Section?

@InesQor: Long time!

I find the initial post on this thread quite amusing for the following reasons:
Firstly, the poster has an inflated ego and an overblown sense of self-importance; I "LagosShia" Will Embrace Christianity On Two Little Conditions!. Quite amusing really.

Secondly, following Jesus Christ of Nazareth and accepting him as the Lord of Allah and Mohammed is actually an unconditional surrender and death. . .so the OP is quite literally chasing shadows by demanding conditions. You have nothing that is of worth or interest to Jehovah God. Keep your "two little conditions". Not interested.

Thirdly, compared to the Divine Majesty: you are ant-like. . .and you remind me of a certain ant:

The train passes by at 2 o' clock every day according to the schedule. Beside the rail track is an ant colony. There is one ant who doesn't believe that trains exist despite the regular rumblings that occur every day as the train passes by. So one day it crawls on to the rail track and begins to loudly declaim "I dare the train to pass by now". Of course no train passes by, for it is not time according to the schedule. And so the ant repeats this act from time to time until the fateful day when it crawls on to the rail track at just before 2 o' clock. As at other times, it begins: "I dare---". The train passes by at 2 o' clock every day according to the schedule. . .and splat goes the ant.

Of course you will dismiss the answer provided to you in the bible: "Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead." And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked, while others said, "We will hear you again on this matter."
AND "just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment"

The mighty God, even the LORD, hath spoken, and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.

Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined.

Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.

He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people.

Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.

And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself. Selah.

Remember this that I posted from earlier on this thread:

Here's the likely scenario that will unfold.

In situations such as this, Nigerians have traditionally looked up to NLC to provide leadership and direction. Of course NLC (which leaders are part of the elite consensus that subsidy should go) will as usual talk tough and threaten. . .will call a general strike.

The strike will last about three or so days. . .maybe a week and a half maximum while "negotiations" with the FG go on, then Labor will announce that they are "suspending" the strike for a period of maybe "six" months or so. . .while they watch if Government will make good on its palliative measures. Labor will agree to be part of the committee to monitor implementation of "subsidy savings".

. . .and so will end the "great Nigerian revolution" of 2012. A "revolution" that was spawned and died on Internet forums and social networks.[/i]

@ekt_bear:
I think you should stop defending the man El-Rufai. The initial post is only one in a series that is typical of the hypocrite that El-Rufai is.
For example:

El-Rufai insists Buhari is unelectable

Mohammadu Buhari’s record as a military head of state will perpetually render him unelectable because Nigerians will never desire a repeat of such administration, said Nasir El-Rufai, former FCT Minister.

Reacting to statements made by the Mohammadu Buhari’s party, Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), regarding the advice he gave the retired army general to retire from politics, Mr. El-Rufai, in a statement on Monday, said age is certainly a factor in the coming presidential election since Ibrahim Babangida has already defamed young Nigerians as unfit for national leadership.

“While it is true that neither youth nor age supplies wisdom on their own, it makes sense to ask those who have been recurring decimals in our country’s sorry history to leave the stage. I’m amazed that General Buhari cannot debate this matter without scurrying to the gutter, making claims that are baseless and unsupported by any facts,” said Mr. El-Rufai, describing Mr. Buhari’s leadership style as parochial and insensitive to Nigeria’s diverse background.

He asked whether “the failure [of Mr. Buhari and Mr. Babangida] to do their best for Nigeria when they had the chance qualifies them for a return to office. Our people surely deserve better.”

Another one of those posts. I guess comprehension must be difficult.

hercules07:
The price at this time is not fluctuating due to demand and supply but because the Gas companies are taking into consideration the economic situation of their people, Nigeria wants to leave us to the mercies of capitalist, haba, in a country where any set of people can form association and start charging whatever they like with little or no oversight.

^
Really? So what do you understand by this:

eledalo:
The utility, which owns Britain's largest gas supplier British Gas, said it was unable to cut gas bills as long-term costs for the fuel remained high despite some short-term wholesale price falls.

Britain's largest six energy suppliers, which control 99 percent of the retail energy market, have come under growing pressure to cut domestic energy bills as wholesale energy prices, which make up half of the costs of energy bills, have fallen due to the mild winter weather and the weakening economy.

On Wednesday, EDF Energy announced a cut in its gas rates, but kept electricity prices unchanged, saying its increases in November were inflation based.
