Mynd44:
But do you eat beef, chicken, mutton, pork etc?

Do you eat eggs and dairy? How are they any different?

They did not hunt these animals, they also did not cause the beaching, it happened by a natural biological process which the animal will have died from anyway.

They should not be shamed for eating them except by vegetarians

You have a point. But my own point is, it's not every time you see an animal that you should only think of killing it for food.

Mynd44:
And why is this a problem? It is food isn't it?

It's a problem because it shows we are still largely being ruled by our survival instinct, so we only see animals for what they're worth as food.

The ancestors of these people you hail hunted these fishes to almost extinction. Nigerians eat what 9-10 of these each year. What they are doing is penance for the greed of their parents, our people's eating of such small quantity does not put any strain on the ecosystem or their numbers.

Stop this self hating

Guy, it's not just about fishes, it's about the value we place on life generally.
Granted that these people's ancestors were also barbaric, but the predecessors have evolved into a more civilized society. We should do the same.

Congrats

Congrats

We don't value human life in Nigeria, let alone an ordinary fish life
8 out of 10 Nigerians will only think of how to kill and eat the poor fish

I really appreciate your analysis of Nigeria's economic plight. But the problem is HOW DO WE KNOW THE RIGHT PERSON TO VOTE FOR AS THE PRESIDENT?
Wouldn't the election still be between the two ruling parties as usual? (Perhaps Tinubu and Atiku)
In order words, we may be forced to choose between hell or the deep blue sea.
It doesn't seem like the solution to our problem lies in "voting right". So much more need to be done. We need a serious revolution to save this country.

You are an idi*t!
Prophecy (the -cy ending is pronounced as "sea") is the noun form, while Prophesy (the -sy is pronounced as "sigh") is the verb form.
It's just like the difference between Advice and Advise.

Stop making assumptions about my intentions

How old are you? What's your gender? What's your religion (and how devout are you?) ? What do you do for a living?

Nice

Ok

what are some of these laws if I may ask??

There are very many of them, but unfortunately I don't want to waste my time finding them out.
But here is one of them: Exodus 22:20
" Anyone who sacrifices to any god other than the Lord must be destroyed"
Now imagine if Muslims are also commanded to destroy any man that worship any god other than Allah!
I'm sure you can see how such law/commandment can cause people to commit acts that can be tagged "terrorism".
The good thing is that christians are good at choosing the "sensible" parts of the scriptures to obey . They know that a good God cannot really be serious about some of the things he commands them to do

neuf:
Hence the reason for the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The old testament wasn't for Christians but for the Children of Israel (Jews) if you like.
All the laws of the old testament was replaced by only two that superceded the rest:
1) Love God with all your heart
2) Love your neighbors as yourself.

Christian was given to people who followed Christ teachings while he was on earth, so there wasn't any need in the first place to follow the laws of the old testament verbatim for Christians....

The Bible is both old and new because we need to know our history, how we got here, the mistakes that were made and what lies ahead...

It's like this. If I said 24 divided by 3. You'll probably pictured this "24/3" in your mind as you're solving it not the long division which was the first method you were thought in school... Why is that? This method is more easier, faster and efficient than the other one.

So why did God make those barbaric and terroristic laws in the old testament in the first place? Why couldn't he get things right once and for all?
Islamic Teachings are very similar to old testament teachings, but unlike christians, Muslims don't have any newer and more sensible "testament" to adopt. So you have to blame God/Allah for making those laws that Muslims diligently obey.

GBASKY:
THE LIVING AND THE DEAD KNOWS THAT ALL TEERRORISTS ARE MUSLIMS BECAUSE MOHAMMED HIMSELF ISD A FUCKING TERRORIST
THE ONLY PROBLEM THE WORLD IS FACING ARE MUSLIMS . THEIR FOREFATHER ISHMAEL WAS PROCLAIMED BY GOD TO BE THE A POTENTIAL TERRORISTS FROM THE WOMB.

I WISH ALL MUSLIMS WILL KNOW WHERE THEIR PROPHET IS RIGHT NOW

If Christians also obey certain verses in the Bible (Old Testament), they would also commit terroristic acts!

neuf:
the 15 year old that shot his school, was he not charged on terrorism?

Have you not read where it's said, there's no indication that he's working with someone?
Hence implying his act are terrorist in nature but he may not be one.

It's 2022 all these stupid takes all clout should be checked

If Christians also obey certain verses in the Bible (Old Testament), they would also commit terroristic acts!

Because faith is not based on logic.

It's possible it was a human that was turned to that antelope. It's unbelievable that an antelope was caught sleeping and snoring

CuteEmma:
Nope, you will be arrested if you walk NUDE on the street, does it cause any physical harm ? But we all know that it’s wrong, especially when there might be [i]kids around as it can affect them psychologically [/I] .

You can’t just do whatever you feel like as long as it doesn’t harm anyone physically, there are rules; I wonder why this is an exception.

Welldone madam. You have twisted the harm in my comment to mean ONLY physical harm, and yet you yourself recognize that some harm could be psychological.

Dear Nigerian youths, 2023 presidential election is another opportunity for us to CHOOSE WISELY . It would be quite foo.lish and disastrous for us to make the same mistake we made in 2015 and 2019 by voting for the heartless, feebleminded, unintelligent, tribalistic Buhari as our president. I'm sure most of us are now suffering in one way or the other from the consequences of that mistake.
I don't expect any sensible youth to vote for the like of Tinubu, Atiku or any of those old politicians that should actually be at home enjoying their last days on earth with their grandchildren. These people are nothing but greedy thieves who are only seeking political office for their selfish gains. If you think Tinubu is seeking to be president because he wants to transform Nigeria for the better, then you're a great fhool.

Interesting!
Can someone please educate me briefly on exactly why our very own Naira has a very low value. What really are the factors determining how much a currency is worth in the international market?

doggedfighter:
A handsome well built dude is gone. RIP !



What if he died of natural causes or some medically yet to be diagnosed ailments but coincidentally he drank with friends on that day?

It's possible. Unfortunately, Africans usually don't see terrible happenings as coincidences, especially if there is a little element of suspicion.

Poisoning food and drinks. I still wonder how it works.

Are you saying you don't believe there are poisonous substances that can be added to food or drink to kill a person? There certainly are.

Many times people claim that that they sent stroke, cancer and other ailments to afflict and kill people.

Or that someone used what they call jazz to crash your business


They defend this so seriously that I just look and try to figure out what's going on in their heads.

Their usual line is ' there are things happening in this life that you don't know'.

And go ahead to tell stories they heard or claim they alone witnessed.

I also don't believe in jazz, money rituals, evil spirit and the like despite all the stories people often tell about such things. I'm looking forward to meeting someone that will demonstrate to me beyond all doubt that those things exist.

Her daughter is married. I hear she's a grandmother already.

Humans

Our quest for more riches and wealth...after becoming millionaire...then the urge to become a Billionaire sets in...and it continues

Just like our satiety gland that gets stimulated when we are filled to the brim with food
It can never be stimulated permanently..just temporary
Even if it manage to be stimulated at a certain points before you know it in a couple of minutes we crave for more food

There's nothing like "satiety gland". What we have is the hormone Leptin also called satiety hormone, that helps in the regulation of hunger and appetite.

Ferya:
Stop this behaviour please JUST STOP IT. Live your life and allow others live. How many kids or grand children do you have? Did she inform you that she is single and unhappy or are you a sadist? Who told you the old man is sad? Please, try to mind your business and stop making people look bad because of their situation in life. I beg you!
