There a reason I didn't use the word "pastor" cause I know first hand how every clown claims to be a pastor. Every Christian should know the fruits of a Godly man, no be by just "he's a pastor".

Being godly is a level all Christians must attain, pastor or not.

So I no mention pastor for my comment.

Okay. But answer this honestly: can a genuinely "godly" christian still fall into the temptation of cheating or not?

It should be police raid a laptop sellers house. What if they sell laptop to support themselves in school?

Mr Devil's Advocate. Well done, nice logic.

Sell your PayPal/skrill funds and giftcardos to me . I’m fast and reliable

How much do you change $1 to naira (PayPal)?

Romanoff:
If you like, know the kamasutra from front to back, if you don't marry a godly man or a man that has control over his passions, he will still cheat.

We've heard countless cases of pastors cheating or even raping (and there are uncountable other such cases we didn't hear about).
I think the problem with cheating really is that man (as well as other male animals) is not designed naturally to mate with just one partner. And now, because of religion (which is actually a man-made scheme) and perhaps for the purpose of maintaining some sort of civility and order, the society is kind of limiting man to having just one partner through marriage (since one-man-one-woman has become the norm). Unfortunately, marriage doesn't stop a man from finding other women attractive and thus lusting after them, especially at the time when he is most sexually active.

Seun:
The fact that you don't like something doesn't mean it should be banned. If you don't like it, don't watch it! So simple, but they don't get it.

I don't think it's that simple! For instance, what should really determine what should be banned and what shouldn't be banned?

Parisian:
Most Nigerians are innate criminals and this is evident in the fact that they feel Hushpuppi's crime was showing off when in reality his crime was that he committed fraud.

I think the problem is that most Nigerian youths now seem to see fraud (particularly, internet fraud) as just a smart way to make money, rather than seeing it as being equivalent to stealing. And this is one of the reasons for the proliferation of yahoo-yahoo.

Romanoff:
One thing my mum taught us as children is "if the person is desirable enough for you to lie with, the person is fit to be your spouse. We don't breed bastards in our family". These words kept ringing in my ears in my choice when it comes to who I have a relationship with.

How do you people date who you can't marry?

So your friend wants the girl to abort the pregnancy? Or he wants her to become a baby mama. Who will now marry her with one child with how Nigerian guys are dodging single mums?

Because they don't really date for the purpose of marriage, but just for the fun of it.

Pierocash:
I can't count you how many times I had such encounters. Witchcraft is real.

I have fought a lot of spiritual battles which I won but not without a scratch. Anybody still fooling himself that this world is a natural existence is nothing but a dumb ass. Because even Aristotle,and Einstein knows that the world is controlled by spiritual forces.

All those forming intellectuals are nothing but dumbasses

Einstein didn't believe in demons and witchcraft the way Africans do.
But do you mind sharing one of your encounters, and please note that whatever happened in your dream doesn't count. I honestly want to learn.

Pierocash:
Yet you see some ignorant mofos in Nigeria calling Africa backward and believe in superstition. If you try to educate them about the existence of demons and witchcraft,they call you ignorant,yet they are the ignorant.

I tell people,there are witchcrafts and demons in the Western Countries same as it is in Africa

Have you had any personal encounter with a demon before? Or what first-hand experience have you had that can be attributed to witchcraft?

Romanoff:
Of course you would, especially if you have older siblings.

My 23 year old sister knows Sound of music because she has older siblings.

I hope she's not taken yet

All of these things are just a reflection of how thoroughly corruption has eaten deep into our Nigerian society. Everyone is now using whatever power, opportunity, advantage or leverage he has to exploit anyone exploitable.
The corruption problem in Nigeria is solvable, but it requires some serious revolutionary actions to be taken.

[quote author=Romanoff post=104346110][/quote]Yeah definitely. I didn't know that was your point.

Jungle justice has its merits and demerits. But in my opinion, it is still far better than the present justice system in Nigeria.
If I catch a Fulani terrorist who has killed, kidnapped and knacked (forcefully), I will personally torture him and set him ablaze than hand him over to the police.
Wicked people deserve to be paid in their own coin!

Romanoff:
If you know how many higher institutions get cadavers ehn. Na mostly police dey supply them.

How you wan make the medical students learn PRACTICALLY without the aid of cadavers. And cadavers can't be manufactured (in my opinion), so someone's dead body has to be used.

Sonnobax15:

NYSC== "NOW YOUR SUFFER BEGINS "

"Now Your Suffering Commences" will be more appropriate.

Fountainofyouth:
How did you know the FBI is leaving those who received the largesse in order deals? Because they are trying to get hushpuppy and his fellow thieves in the $1.1million scam means they are ignoring other big fish? Are you educated at all? Do you lack intellect? Or you just like to argue stupidly?

Why do you find it hard to make your point without spicing it up with some insults?
Like I warned before, someone might beat you soon if you continue with this attitude!

JoshOxborn:
The point is that, i never said i was better, so stop being the wise man in a blouse here.

Yes, you didn't say it explicitly, but you insinuated it tacitly.

JoshOxborn:
CEO of Nairaland, i hate to say this but your punctuations sucks .

It's either you say "your punctuations suck" or "your punctuation sucks".
If you want to throw stones, make sure you don't live in a glass house!

Romanoff:
As long as one is successful and content, na wetin matter be that.

Yeah, I agree absolutely with that.

Fountainofyouth:
I'm not corroborating anything, Book haram do what they do for selfish reasons so they cannot be ignored, not all Muslims KILL, that is my point, we have Muslims in everywhere in Nigeria and the world at large, not all of them in the nonsense the extremist do, we cannot use a particular group to judge all muslims, get it clear.

You are not getting my argument. My argument is not really about Boko Haram, I only used that to explain my point. We can argue about WHY Boko Haram do what they do if you want.
I quoted you when you made this statement: " Shut the fvck up and let others believe whatever they want to believe, it is not your business ."
So essentially, my argument is to correct that statement because sometimes what some people believe can be a problem for you and others, so it becomes your business! Bye

Romanoff:
Business is not for everyone. I know the impact that man has made in CBN. He's retiring soon but you can't say he's not successful.

Salaried job is not for everyone either.
He may be successful, but you and I know very well that "success" has levels.

Fountainofyouth:
Yes, same way in the old testament, God told prophets and kings according to the bible, to kill unbelievers, Catholics killed Protestants and unbelievers in the time of old, should we say they serve the true God and Christians of now don't? Same way some Muslims have it in their Quran boldly written for them to kill, is it all Muslims that kill unbelievers?

You are actually corroborating my point.
When people have beliefs that can be harmful to others, it should be everyone's business to address that problem!
Imagine the atrocities Boko Haram has been causing in Nigeria over the years because of their idio-tic, delusional belief. Would you tell me it's none of my business to condemn such belief?

Romanoff:
See, forget. I get friend wey her papa na director for CBN.

Just forget matter.

My point is that it's still very possible to have better achievements working for yourself than working for even the best company in the world.
When you work for a company, there will be a limit to what you can achieve; but you are limitless when you are your own boss!

Romanoff:
Depends on how much he's earning o and where he works.

If you have a permanent employment with NNPC or CBN, work until them pursue you comot there.

What if you are confident you could achieve more, earn more and be more fulfilled working for yourself than working for a so-called NNPC or CBN?
Imagine collecting an average of 1M naira as monthly salary working with NNPC. In 35 years, you will only have earned 420 million naira. How can that make you compete with an Obi Cubana?

Gaddafi1:
Wondering why someone will even consider working for salary at any time in this life. You are simply paid salary to forget our dream and as long as one is dependent on salary there is a great limitation to what can be achieve.
Also, unfortunately the school system is training students to work for companies after graduation. We should learn, study and understand entrepreneurship. That's the way to go.

So if no one is trained to work for companies, how will companies get their staff? If we are all entrepreneurs, who would be our employees?

Fountainofyouth:
Atheists be having headache on someone else's belief, Shut the fvck up and let others believe whatever they want to believe, it is not your business.

What if someone believes his god wants him to kill you for not believing in that god. Will it still not be your business?

This is a worrisome problem I have actually spent many sleepless nights trying to figure out the best solution to.
I have come to realize that EXCESSIVE acquisition of wealth by some people is one of the main causes of poverty for other people.
Here is an analogy to explain the fact above:
A group of 100 people are given 100 naira to share (and it's assumed that 1 naira will be more than enough for the NEEDS of each person). Then about 20 of these people make away with 80 naira, leaving the remaining 80 people with just 20 naira to share among themselves. Of course, 20 naira will never be enough for 80 people, and 80 naira is clearly too much for 20 people.
For the world to be rid of poverty, we just need to take from those who have in excess and give to those who don't have enough. In other words, there has to be an effective way of preventing people from having too much.
A situation where a single individual is so rich that he can feed millions of people for years is unreasonable!

The fact you should keep in mind is that your achievements form a part (an important part actually) of your personality, and your personality will determine who will love you and how much they will love you.
So if people love you for your wealth, academic qualification or profession, it doesn't really mean that they don't love you genuinely. And when you conceal certain parts of your personality, you simply make yourself unattractive and unappealing to some people that would have otherwise been influenced to love your through such
hidden personality (your achievements).
To get my point better, answer this question: could a woman's academic qualification, communication skills, intelligence or culinary skills (which can all be considered as achievements) affect whether you will love her or not?

majamajic:
If u service in average 15 men a day for 60yrs , that's 306,000 men

I think the 335000 men serviced is counted for the two of them

Glamouzpeter:
Yes

I have only heard of cases where a dead person visits people who aren't aware that he/she is dead. This is a strange one.
I want to believe that the daughter saw him in her dream.

Romanoff:
Rotfl.

The reason many people are calling God (cause God did not call them) and claiming to be pastors is cause many people are gullible.

People that don't want to know God and hear from Him by themselves . People that instead of working out salvation prefer to pay "pastors" to see vision for them and give prophesy, na so e dey end.

Let God continue exposing the wolves in sheep's clothing abeg.

@ the bolded
Do you hear from God yourself? How was his/her/its voice like? What did he/she/it say?
