There is a lady called Damaris from Platuer state who's did her NYSC service in my place. we lost a contact for long until just of recent that I mate her Brother who were with her during the time and he gave me her phone number.
I called her with sweet words; My lovely darling friend, my lady n so but she feels offended and told me that "she was never in love with me and not intended to do that for now".
After some weeks ago, I received a SMS from her that she is in need of 20k if I can be able to offer. I asked her to come over and see me for the money but she was telling me that I shall not expect anything from her concerning Sex.
What is happening with you girls? I'm not mumu or maga as you do call us guys.

Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary

This feast was instituted by Pope St. Pius V in thanksgiving for the great naval victory over the Turks at the battle of Lepanto on this day in the year 1570, a favor due to the recitation of the Rosary. This victory saved Europe from being overrun by the forces of Islam.

Lepanto, perhaps the most complete victory ever gained over the Ottoman Empire, on October 7, 1571, is commemorated by the invocation "Help of Christians," inserted in the Litany of Loretto. At Belgrade the Turks were defeated on the Feast of Our Lady ad Nives in 1716. A second victory gained that year on the Octave of the Assumption determined Pope Clement XI to command the Feast of the Rosary to be celebrated by the universal Church. Leo XIII added the invocation "Queen of the most Holy Rosary, pray for us," to the Litany of Loretto. The Feast is in reality a great festival of thanksgiving for the signal and countless benefits bestowed on Christendom through the Rosary of our blessed Queen.

In modern times successive popes have urged the faithful to pray the Rosary. It is a form of contemplative prayer, mental and vocal prayer, which brings down God’s blessing on the Church. It is a biblically inspired prayer which is centered on meditation on the salvific mysteries of Christ in union with Mary, who was so closely associated with her Son in his redeeming activity.

The Roman Catholic Church is not Christian ; her precepts contradict the Bible repeatedly.

Nowadays, it can be heard that the Roman Catholic Church gave us the Bible --but she actually burned Bibles and them that translated and believed the Bible (witness William Tyndale, a good and a great man).
Rome is full of heresies (e.g., Mary remained a virgin ) and blasphemies (e.g., the mass--many died for not believing this). She has killed multitudes of Christians. She has maintained her blasphemous reign as the so-called "church" by force and deception--not by the truth of the Bible (which she publicly railed against).

The Bible reveals who Rome is and is therefore dangerous to her. Why is she posing as the Christian church? False religion is a money maker. Her doctrines/teachings have enabled her to collect wealth, delicacies, adoration, and power for centuries on end. Her doctrines are made up stories consisting of various elements and superstitions and pasted together with some Bible names.

The Bible reveals that Rome is drunken with the blood of the saints ( Revelation 17:6), it intoxicates her, that woman that sits on seven mountains (Revelation 17:9). For centuries, the woman that sits on seven mountains has called Bible believing Christians, "heretics", and herself, "the Church"--but she is the heretic and she is not the church, but is actually the woman of Revelation 17, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH (Revelation 17:5). Christians have known this for ages, the historical record proves this abundantly. Former Roman Catholic Jesuit priest, Dr. Alberto Rivera, is very bold--

Robert Powell as Jesus of Nazareth.
Actor Robert Powell: Stop worshipping me, I am not the real Jesus.
Since he played the character, Jesus, in the 1977 movie, Jesus of Nazareth, Robert Powell’s photos are hung in churches, homes, cars, schools, offices and many holy grottos all over the world to drive off evil forces and attract good fortunes.
However, Powell has cried out in the social media that he is not Jesus and that people should stop worshiping him. Rather, they should respect the true Jesus and worship God. His is among the most trending stories on social media in January 2016.

In his words: “I never cease to say and I repeat it to the world since 1977. I am not Jesus Christ, I am just an actor and British comedian. I am tired of seeing my photos displayed in places of worship and other places for worship. I just make a film for a living. Burn my picture and worship the only God in truth ! I am just an actor… Jesus is Lord!”

"WE" is a plural of Royalty and respect. in all Semitic language which is Aramaic and Arabic there's a plurality of respect and number but in Anglo i.e English there's only a Plural of numbers. Read well my brother. thanks

What the Church doesn't want you to know.

Up until the First Council of Nicaea, the Roman aristocracy primarily worshipped two Greek gods -Apollo and Zeus- but the great bulk of common people idolized either Julius Caesar or Mithras (the Romanized version of the Persian deity Mithra ).
Caesar was deified by the Roman Senate after his death (15 March 44 BC) and subsequently venerated as "the Divine Julius".
The word "Savior" was affixed to his name, its literal meaning being "one who sows the seed", i.e., he was a phallic god.
Julius Caesar was hailed as, " God made manifest and universal Savior of human life", and his successor Augustus was called the "ancestral God and Savior of the whole human race"
(Man and his Gods, Homer Smith, Little, Brown & Co., Boston, 1952).

Emperor Nero (54-68), whose original name was Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus (37-68), was immortalized on his coins as the "Savior of mankind" (ibid.).
The Divine Julius as Roman Savior and "Father of the Empire" was considered "God" among the Roman rabble for more than 300 years. He was the deity in some Western presbyters' texts, but was not recognized in Eastern or Oriental writings.

Constantine's intention at Nicaea was to create an entirely new god for his empire who would unite all religious factions under one deity. Presbyters were asked to debate and decide who their new god would be. Delegates argued among themselves, expressing personal motives for inclusion of particular writings that promoted the finer traits of their own special deity.

Throughout the meeting, howling factions were immersed in heated debates, and the names of 53 gods were tabled for discussion.
"As yet, no God had been selected by the council, and so they balloted in order to determine that matter... For one year and five months the balloting lasted..."
(God's Book of Eskra, Prof. S. L. MacGuire's translation, Salisbury, 1922, chapter xlviii, paragraphs 36, 41).

At the end of that time, Constantine returned to the gathering to discover that the presbyters had not agreed on a new deity but had balloted down to a shortlist of five prospects :
i. Caesar
ii. Krishna
iii. Mithra
iv. Horus
v. Zeus
(Historia Ecclesiastica, Eusebius, c. 325).

Constantine was the ruling spirit at Nicaea and he ultimately decided upon a new god for them. To involve British factions, he ruled that the name of the great Druid god, Hesus , be joined with the Eastern Savior-god, Krishna ( Krishna is Sanskrit for
Christ ), and thus Hesus Krishna would be the official name of the new Roman god.

A vote was taken and it was with a majority show of hands (161 votes to 157) that both divinities became one God . Following longstanding heathen custom, Constantine used the official gathering and the Roman apotheosis decree to legally deify two deities as one, and did so by democratic consent. A new god was proclaimed and "officially" ratified by Constantine ( Acta Concilii Nicaeni, 1618).

That purely political act of deification effectively and legally placed Hesus and Krishna among the Roman gods as one individual composite.

That abstraction lent Earthly existence to amalgamated doctrines for the Empire's new religion; and because there was no letter "J" in alphabets until around the ninth century, the name subsequently evolved into " Jesus Christ".

WHO WAS THIS? This was Chrishna (Krishna) of India, who according to tradition was crucified approximately 1200 B.C. Incidentally, he had a “virgin” birth, either by a hair of the Hindu God Vishnu entering his mother’s womb, or in another version of the myth, God Vishnu himself entering her womb.

How the Gospels were created!

Constantine then instructed Eusebius to organize the compilation of a uniform collection of new writings developed from primary aspects of the religious texts submitted at the council.
His instructions were:
"Search ye these books, and whatever is good in them, that retain; but whatsoever is evil, that cast away. What is good in one book, unite ye with that which is good in another book. And whatsoever is thus brought together shall be called The Book of Books . And it shall be the doctrine of my people, which I will recommend unto all nations, that there shall be no more war for religions' sake."
(God's Book of Eskra, op. cit., chapter xlviii, paragraph 31)
"Make them to astonish" said Constantine, and "the books were written accordingly"
(Life of Constantine, vol. iv, pp. 36-39).

Eusebius amalgamated the "legendary tales of all the religious doctrines of the world together as one", using the standard god-myths from the presbyters' manuscripts as his exemplars.
Merging the supernatural "god" stories of Mithra and Krishna with British Culdean beliefs effectively joined the orations of Eastern and Western presbyters together "to form a new universal belief" (ibid.). Constantine believed that the amalgamated collection of myths would unite variant and opposing religious factions under one representative story.
Eusebius then arranged for scribes to produce,
"fifty sumptuous copies ... to be written on parchment in a legible manner, and in a convenient portable form, by professional scribes thoroughly accomplished in their art"
(ibid.).

"These orders," said Eusebius, "were followed by the immediate execution of the work itself ... we sent him [Constantine] magnificently and elaborately bound volumes of three-fold and four-fold forms"
(Life of Constantine, vol. iv, p. 36).
They were the "New Testimonies", and this is the first mention (c. 331) of the New Testament in the historical record.
With his instructions fulfilled, Constantine then decreed that the New Testimonies would thereafter be called the " word of the Roman Savior God" (Life of Constantine, vol. iii, p. 29) and official to all presbyters sermonizing in the Roman Empire. He then ordered earlier presbyterial manuscripts and the records of the council "burnt" and declared that "any man found concealing writings should be stricken off from his shoulders" (beheaded) (ibid.). As the record shows, presbyterial writings previous to the Council of Nicaea no longer exist, except for some fragments that have survived.

Some council records also survived, and they provide alarming ramifications for the Church. Some old documents say that the First Council of Nicaea ended in mid-November 326, while others say the struggle to establish a god was so fierce that it extended "for four years and seven months" from its beginning in June 325 ( Secrets of the Christian Fathers , op. cit.). Regardless of when it ended, the savagery and violence it encompassed were concealed under the glossy title " Great and Holy Synod" , assigned to the assembly by the Church in the 18th century.

Earlier Churchmen, however, expressed a different opinion.
The Second Council of Nicaea in 786-87 denounced the First Council of Nicaea as,
"a synod of fools and madmen" and sought to annul "decisions passed by men with troubled brains"
(History of the Christian Church, H. H. Milman, DD, 1871).

If one chooses to read the records of the Second Nicaean Council and notes references to "affrighted bishops" and the "soldiery" needed to "quell proceedings", the "fools and madmen" declaration is surely an example of the pot calling the kettle black.
Constantine died in 337 and his outgrowth of many now-called pagan beliefs into a new religious system brought many converts. Later Church writers made him "the great champion of Christianity" which he gave, "legal status as the religion of the Roman Empire".

(Encyclopedia of the Roman Empire, Matthew Bunson, Facts on File, New York, 1994, p. 86).

I suggest that you have to read from Matthew 5:17 to hear from the lip of the master Jesus Christ. 5:17 - 19 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
18. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
19. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach [them], the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Crucifiction of Jesus of Nazereth is as well a big lie or event that has never happen. Garner Ted Armstrong, the Executive Vice-President and Co-Publisher of the "PLAIN TRUTH" (a Christian Magazine from America, which boasts a current, FREE, world-wide circulation of 6 million copies a month)3, attempts to answer his own puzzle under the heading: "WAS THE RESURRECTION A HOAX?" This is the typical American way of selling religion. He elucidates his poser - "HOAX?" - with the words, "THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH IS EITHER THE SUPREME FACT OF HISTORY OR A FLAGRANT, DELIBERATE FABRICATION FOISTED OFF ON THE FOLLOWERS OF CHRISTIANITY."
Another budding, young "Billy Graham" from America, Josh McDowell effuses in his book "THE RESURRECTION FACTOR", saying, "I WAS FORCED TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST IS EITHER ONE OF THE MOST WICKED, HEARTLESS, VICIOUS, HOAXES EVER FOISTED UPON THE MINDS OF MEN, OR IT IS THE MOST FANTASTIC FACT OF HISTORY." Since it is not possible for an Oriental to match American superlatives and extravagant verbiage, I do not have to apologise for humbly borrowing their words for the title of my book: "CHRIST CRUCIFIED - Hoax or History?"4

@Nairaland Mods: Why bring Muslim threads to the frontpage when people cant freely comment on them? angry

Since the muslims wont dont like Non-Muslims commenting on their thread without confessing their alligiance to the Prophet Muhammed, then they should stay in their corner away from the free world and none to their threads should be on the frontpage. Ur hatred to Islam is second to none as it shows ur ignorant in life.

Health / Alcohol Measures: How Much Is Too Much? by alvin000(m): 4:57am On Feb 12, 2016
Drinking alcohol is part of modern social material. Turn ups, braais and sundowners are the usual manner of behavior of the modern Nigerian society. From a bottle of beer after work with friends to the glass of wine at dinner. In fact, almost every occasion is celebrated with a drink.

While there is nothing wrong with having a good time over a few glasses, the difficulty arises when one drinks like a fish and then later drives home under the influence.

Though statistic show a slight decrease of 2,5 percent in deaths on the road, 1,118 accidents were recorded on the road the 1st of December 2015 and January 5 2016. This number still brings fear to the population as most of the drivers involved in these accidents were DUI (Driving Under the Influence).

And while one doesn’t have to be a full-blown alcoholic to experience problems with alcohol, binge drinking and underage drinking are becoming more prevalent.

********BINGE DRINKING********
Binge drinking is regarded as drinking excessive amount of alcohol in a short amount of time. During this pattern of drinking, the doors of alcohol are thrown wide open, often making one slide dangerously close to the brink of alcoholism.

******UNDERAGE DRINKERS******
Researches have reported that 26,6 percentage of the population aged 15 and above consumes 60g or more of pure alcohol over a month. There is a rise in the number of 11 to 17 who drink. The most worrying about this is that those who start drinking before the age of 15 are more likely to develop alcoholism than those who begin after the age of 20.

With the turn up lifestyle trending, endless partying encourages binge drinking on a large scale. Peer pressure, curiosity and wanting to appear as self-confident and grown up are often to blame.

Underage drinkers can never engage in responsible drinking, as they usually don’t have the maturity to understand the impact and consequences of excessive alcohol drinking.

Parents should worry about the studies that show that when teenagers are under the influence, they are more likely to engage in high risk sex and be involved in accidents.

SIGNS YOU ARE AN ALCOHOLIC

#Trying to quit but you cannot
#You drink excessive amount of #alcohol and you drink fast
#You black out regularly
#You drink to relax or feel better
#Unable to stop once you start drinking
*SIGNS YOU ARE A BINGE DRINKER*

You drink to get rid of boredom
Drink when feeling depressed
You drink to re-bond with friends
You drink to relief stress and tension
You drink more than you intend to
******FULL-BLOWN ALCOHOLISM*****. Most people don’t consider that downing drink after drink could lead to alcoholism- a chronic dependence on alcohol to a point where someone is physically and psychologically unable to function without it.

****Two components of alcoholism: emotional/social and physical

When you have to drink to forget, sleep or relieve stress, this indicates that alcoholism is developing. And, when a person sacrifices healthy living and functioning as a result of drinking, like being unproductive or being late at work, and frequent relationship conflicts as a result of drinking, there is a problem.

The physical component refers to when a person is sober, they suffer form withdrawal symptoms, like shaking, vomiting, nausea and headaches. They need alcohol to feel normal.

Because drinking is an unshakable habit in our society, it made alcoholism an incredibly difficult disease to manage.

Alcohol is promoted and available almost everywhere, so trying to obtain a sober behavior is rather difficult.

There is a difference between alcoholism and alcohol abuse. There are those who abuse alcohol, but at the same time cannot be classified alcoholics. Liquor is found to be the most abused substance across Nigeria.

*******HEALTH HAZARDS*********
Gout, anaemia, liver cirrhosis, high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease are just some of the health hazards associated with alcohol abuse.

Though 60% of Nigerian's actually drink alcohol. 23% East, 21% West and 16%North side of the country. The majority of this population drink in an irresponsible manner. ***Drink Responsibly or Quit***

Politics / Buhari: Why Do You Choose To Punish Federal Workers? by alvin000(m): 5:55pm On Feb 08, 2016
It has become very open that the change we have voted for is hunting and killing Us. Imagine today 8 days in the month of February but none of the federal workers have receive salary of last month January. You are busy travelling from one country to another and recovering our stolen money from politicians but you don't even care of the workers salary talkless of the new year allowances which is our entitlment. We also have learnt the EFCC have recover the sum of N3.7trillion from those looters but you are still lamenting that there is money in the treasury. Where do you get the money for to finance all those transportation? What is the use of these recovered money? Is that the change we were seeking for?
