Politics / Re: 2019: People Getting Desperate – Presidency Raises Alarm by ameri9ja: 5:58pm On Apr 07, 2018 |
Federal Government's Violation Of The Aburi Accord Led To The Nigerian Civil War - Femi Adesina "The meeting held on January 4 and 5, 1967, and came out with what is popularly known today as the Aburi Accord. The agenda of the meeting consisted of three crucial issues: (i) Reorganization of the Armed Forces (ii) Constitutional agreement (iii) Issues of displaced persons within Nigeria. The two-day meeting reached consensus that were acceptable to both sides... This was something akin to federalism, even under a military government... What does this mean again in simple language? Equity, fairness, true federalism. Matters like the holding of an ad hoc constitutional conference, fate of soldiers involved in the January 15, 1966 coup, rehabilitation of displaced persons, etc, were also amicably resolved, and the conferees returned happily to Nigeria. Only for the Federal side to deliver a blow to the solar plexus: The Aburi Accord, Gowon said, was unworkable, and he reneged on all the agreements".

PrecisionFx: Sir, all I ask is USE YOUR COMMON SENSE. HISTORY told u Rome was OFICIALLY persecuting Christians from AD 64. How was Rome persecuting what it invented? The spirit world has rules that govern it. Those rules are what mandated that Christ, God the Son of God, come to earth and assume a specially prepared body and suffer and be crucified as atonement for sins. |

PrecisionFx: Sir, see how confused u r? You said the bible was made up, yet u r constantly referring to the bible. You said Lord Jesus was made up, yet here u r saying his father was a carpenter and Israelite never accepted him. That's what happens when u won't accept a simple truth. Mindlessly repeating "Constantine created Christianity" like a parrot. Have u no shame? Even the flat earth people are better than u. No one ever gave their life for round earth. Compare to Christianity. Here is a partial list of what people went through for Christianity: "the emperor ordered Christian buildings and the homes of Christians torn down and their sacred books collected and burned. Christians were arrested, tortured, mutilated, burned, starved, and condemned to gladiatorial contests to amuse spectators." People happily went through hell and paid the ultimate price for Christianity. Have u no common senses sir? |

PrecisionFx: Try and use the common sense God gave you. THIS IS HISTORY, the HISTORY you folks keep yapping about. HISTORY. HISTORY. HISTORY. Before Constantine The first recorded official persecution of Christians on behalf of the Roman Empire was in AD 64, when, as reported by the Roman historian Tacitus, EmperorNero attempted to blame Christians for the Great Fire of Rome. According to Church tradition, it was during the reign of Nero that Peter and Paul were martyred in Rome. However, modern historians debate whether the Roman government distinguished between Christians and Jews prior to Nerva's modification of the Fiscus Judaicus in 96, from which point practicing Jews paid the tax and Christians did not.[4] Christians suffered from sporadic and localized persecutions over a period of two and a half centuries. Their refusal to participate in Imperial cult was considered an act of treason and was thus punishable by execution. The most widespread official persecution was carried out by Diocletian. During the Great Persecution (303–311), the emperor ordered Christian buildings and the homes of Christians torn down and their sacred books collected and burned. Christians were arrested, tortured, mutilated, burned, starved, and condemned to gladiatorial contests to amuse spectators.[5] The Great Persecution officially ended in April 311, when Galerius, senior emperor of theTetrarchy, issued an edict of toleration, which granted Christians the right to practice their religion, though it did not restore any property to them.[6]Constantine, Caesar in the Western empire, and Licinius, Caesar in the East, also were signatories to the edict of toleration.[7] It has been speculated that Galerius' reversal of his long-standing policy of Christian persecution has been attributable to one or both of these co-Caesars.[8] During and after Constantine During the reign of the Roman EmperorConstantine the Great (AD 306–337),Christianity began to transition to the dominant religion of the Roman Empire. Historians remain uncertain about Constantine's reasons for favoring Christianity, and theologians and historians have often argued about which form of early Christianity he subscribed to. There is no consensus among scholars as to whether he adopted his mother Helena's Christianity in his youth, or, as claimed by Eusebius, encouraged her to convert to the faith himself. Some scholars question the extent to which he should be considered a Christian emperor: "Constantine saw himself as an 'emperor of the Christian people'. If this made him a Christian is the subject of ... debate,"[1][2][attribution needed] although he allegedly received a baptism shortly before his death.[3] Constantine's decision to cease thepersecution of Christians in the Roman Empire was a turning point for early Christianity, sometimes referred to as the Triumph of the Church, the Peace of the Church or the Constantinian shift. In 313, Constantine and Licinius issued theEdict of Milan decriminalizing Christian worship. The emperor became a great patron of the Church and set a precedent for the position of the Christian emperor within the Church and the notion of orthodoxy, Christendom,ecumenical councils, and the state church of the Roman Empire declared by edict in 380. He is revered as a saint andisapostolos in the Eastern Orthodox Church, Oriental Orthodox Church, and various Eastern Catholic Churches for his example as a "Christian monarch." |

CuteMadridista: Bro, read the powerful WORDS of Lord Jesus. I already acknowledged myth. Here is what I wrote: "The story of the Jews and God in the Bible is essentially true though there are myths and fables mixed in but these are easily discernable" THINK: How did the Romans write all the martyrs up to today into existence? Just look at the spread of Christianity with an open mind - can't u see there is something SUPERNATURAL involved?! |

PrecisionFx: My friend, even forget history (which has been shown time and again to be wrong), how do u even know I exist outside your head? EVERYTHING we think we know is based on common sense and preponderance of indirect and circumstantial evidence. COMMON SENSE will tell anybody who has ever actually read the powerful words of Christ that they couldn't have been made up out of thin air. But with the INTERNET gullible people like you would believe anything. And speaking of flat earth... The Earth is round, and other myths, debunked by the flat Earth movement Moving with missionary zeal, Nathan Thompson swept into a brewpub here bearing a battered globe under his arm with the words "this is a scam" scrawled on the side. He dropped the defaced orb like a vanquished enemy on a table amid pints of beer. A 16-year-old boy approached and said his friend had started a GoFundMe campaign to prove the world is a disk. Moments later a middle-aged man declared, "Earth is flat, not spheroid!" Thompson beamed. With more people rejecting traditional sources of information and the internet giving rise to a variety of alternative worldviews, the granddaddy of all conspiracy theories is enjoying a renaissance and Colorado is the epicenter. Thousands of YouTube videos claim the world is flat, gravity is uncertain, space is fake and the curvature of the planet is an optical illusion. Followers say the globe-earth ruse is perpetuated by a powerful cabal determined to make humans feel small and powerless. Mark Sargent, a software analyst from Boulder now living in Seattle, is the primary organizer of the movement and has made more than a thousand videos. He believes Colorado's open-mindedness accounts for its prominent position among believers. Back in 2015, when he typed "flat Earth" into YouTube he'd get 50,000 hits. Now it's more than 18.7 million, beating out Lady Gaga and closing in on Donald Trump at about 21.3 million. Sargent said he suspects millions of believers remain "in the closet" to avoid ridicule. "My channel broke 10 million views in December," he said. "This is my full-time job now." Sargent, 49, became a believer after watching videos and realizing he could "no longer prove the globe." I don't know the motivation for hiding the truth," Nichols said. "The sobering part of this is that you have been lied to and continue to be lied to." Back at the Golden pub, Bob Knodel, a 57-year-old engineer whose "Globebusters" series has more than 2.6 million views on YouTube, held forth on the flat Earth universe. "The sun is about 3,419.5 miles away by my calculations. It's not a burning ball of hydrogen gas, it is electrostatic energy," he said. "We don't know how it's powered." Brian Gegan, 55 and not a flat Earther, wandered over. "So you believe the Earth is flat and stationary?" he asked. Thompson jumped in: "We don't believe, WE KNOW! We live in a closed system. The Earth is not spinning. What would keep us on it if it was spinning so fast?" "Gravity," said Gegan. "Gravity has never been proven," Thompson said. Gegan asked why it would be hidden. "They want to dissuade you from the idea of a God," Knodel said. "Beyond that, as a way to control your mind. They want us to think that we aren't special, but we are." Gegan walked away unconvinced. |

How can you trust his account?" You are the only one who doesn't know that 99.999999999999% of people who write what happened were never there when it happened or they only witnessed a very small part of what happened. Why do we believe them? Same reason we believe the earth is round. Here again is something I wrote: "Look, my friend, at a point we really need to stop being too clever by half and admit that certain things are very likely mostly true (due to overwhelming indirect and circumstantial evidence) otherwise we will never get anywhere. That's same reason we know the bible is mostly true - overwhelming indirect and circumstantial evidence. |
