Ehn? Who are those mentioning Bini girls? |
pro01:Y'know there are some girls who are that femme fatale type,man killers etc etc. . . Try as hard as i like,i can never be like that-i always end up looking nice and innocent and adorable. I can laugh at myself because it was very funny(with the benefit of hindsight). |
I think a lot of you women talking about keeping your natural hair,not getting weaves etc aren't in Nigeria. In Nigeria making attachments/weavons is the norm. I cut my hair throughout high school(because i didn't have the time to be plaiting it every week). I just started making it this year and the only reason i started was because i was going to Uni and levels don change. I have braids(attachment) on now and i don't think that makes me fake. We have to work with what we've got. How many hair-care salons are there that provide some of the alternatives you girls have mentioned? And don't call any of those expensive ones that take 5k to relax your hair because i'm a student and i have better things to do with my 5k. If i were to go natural;i would either have to cut my hair(which i've been doing for 6 years and i need a change from),or relax it(which makes no sense since my hair's so thick and stubborn i would have to relax it every damn week) or keep a mohawk(after which my father would disown me or hack it all off with a scissors in the middle of the night). There aren't many options,when you think about it. In all the years i have spent on this earth,i have never seen anyone in Nigeria with extensions. I suppose they're there,but i havent seen them. I'm a natural girl-it's not like i said oh i won't fix nails or wear make-up or whatever-it just sorta works out that way because i don't need that stuff. I don't fix nails-because i have good nails,and they're naturally white,but what about the person who has horrible nails? If fixing nails makes her feel better about herself then why should i try to take that away from her? As long as it's not those claws,then i have no ish with it. I never remember to wear make-up,and i can get away with it because i look ok without make-up,but what about the girl who has spots/blemishes/whatever that makes her feel less of herself? If putting on some brown powder and some red lipstick makes feel better about herself and gives her that confidence,why would i begrudge her that? I don't need fake eyelashes because i've got full eyelashes,but what about the girl whose lashes are scanty? If putting them on makes her feel more powerful and more equipped to take on the world,why would i have a problem with that?(Of course if it enters her eyes when she's on a bike and blinds her,that's her own business). I don't think in terms of fake or real-i just think everyone should do whatever makes them feel good about themselves. That's not to say all those scary neon eyeshadow/whateverthenameis isn't crazy stuff-everything should be in moderation. Moderation-That's the key. *Jay-sus! See long post! It's like i'm competing with Shy-one* |

I don't believe in blind faith. God gave me a brain,and He wants me to use it. I believe in being rational about things. Even in the scriptures we read that there were a group of people,the Bereans,who after being preached to didn't just take Paul's words at face value. They didn't blindly believe everything-but rather they searched the scriptures daily to confirm that what Paul told them was true. See Acts 17:10,11. Proverbs 14:15 also says that the simple man believes everything,but the shrewd one considers his steps. So yeah,i know faith is important and all,and yeah,i know God's ways aren't man's ways,but i'm not gullible and i won't accept things blindly in the name of having faith. That being said,i know the Bible says Homosexuality is wrong,and that's good enough for me. When you add my natural aversion to such a sick act,it's pretty clear that i will never condone homosexuality. But the topic isn't asking whether homosexuality is wrong or not,it's asking whether God made homosexuals that way. I haven't seen any scriptures that talk about that(although if anyone wants to show me one i'm game),so i decided to reason it out. I came up with two major reasons why i'm sure God did not create people as homosexuals: 1-Creating people a certain way takes away their ability to choose whether to be that way or not,and i know God is a big proponent of free-will and choices. If He created people as homosexuals,that would mean they had no choice in the matter,and i can't see God doing something that would take away our free will. Creating people as homosexuals means taking away their free will. I know God wouldn't take away our free will. Therefore i know He didn't create anyone as homosexuals. 2-Creating someone a certain way and expecting him to deny who/what he is,to fight and fight and fight,to struggle with something he has NO control over seems cruel to me. I know God is Love. Therefore He is not and cannot be cruel. Therefore He did not create anybody as homosexuals. That's how i see it. |
God did not make any homosexuals. My God is a God of love,and for him to create people in a certain way and expect them to fight who they are seems pretty cruel to me. He could not have told us that homosexuality is a sin and then gone ahead to create people that way. |
Hah. The person who had this 'miraculous' experience was an addict. She was stoned,high,whatever. Drugs mess with your brain. Period. |
