Over the past two years I have been having serious thoughts about religion, Christianity in particular because I was raised a Christian. A lot of things don't make sense to me lately and I will explain my points now.
1. Salvation: Christians believe that without salvation, which is accepting Jesus into your life, you're going to hell. But I have been curious to know what is the fate of these categories of people: People who existed before Jesus was born, and people who by their background, are likely not Christians. I mean, if I were born in India or Pakistan, I would like be a Hindu or a Muslim. If you were born in that region, you're likely to die practicing the religion of your parents and never get the chance of hearing about Jesus.
2. Religion seems to forbid you asking critical questions: I have come to realise that you're not allowed to ask critical questions if it is seen as a threat to how the system has been organised. Even if you do, you're told something that is very shallow and unconvincing.
I have once tried to ask why God decided to choose a small tribe in Israel to start the salvation of mankind and risk a lot of people in other civilisations not being aware of anything.
As always, I was given another unconvincing answer.
3. Teachings from the Bible sounds good, but not really applicable to real life situations: Imagine you're coming from church and somehow you enter into an argument with a bus conductor and he suddenly slapped you in the face. What would you do? Would you 'turn the other cheek ' like Jesus said or fight back? We are humans, and most times, we act as our emotions leads us. We're fallible and yet we're to live with the burden of being perfect enough for heaven. How is that possible.
I'm beginning to start believing that Christianity is an ideological concept, not very different from other religions.
I have a thousand thoughts concerning the whole Idea of Christianity, but let me stop here yet.
4. Money and billing is driving me crazy!: I attend a Pentecostal church, and to be honest, I don't agree with some of the doctrines. Why would you tell people to bring half their salary every January to sow seed? That's outrageous if you ask me. I watch as I see people being milked dry with multiple offerings every service.
Events upon events that dig holes in the pockets of members in the name of contribution. Like, I'm tired! The church doesn't even know how you survive from Monday to Saturday or how your life outside church is like.
I think I will stop going to church for now.

Hello, I might be of help in some ways, feel free to chat me up on 08089456258. But my first suggestion is for you to give that particular church a break

For those that are business oriented, if you had 1m naira today, what business would you invest it in?

Beautiful Sunday to you.

Register a company, do the necessary documentation, and fund simple ideas that can earn me the first 1 to 5 million naira with a budget of 250k. I will keep rinsing and repeat till I reach 10 million naira and change my game plan. I will focus on creating opportunities that will give me access to existing opportunities.

Ten years ago, I would have found it hard to believe that I would consider leaving Nigeria, as I have always been deeply patriotic. However, the current situation in Nigeria has led me to reassess my commitment, and I am now contemplating relocation.

I am seeking your professional guidance regarding the feasibility of relocating from Nigeria in pursuit of better opportunities, potentially through further education.

I possess a Bachelor's degree in Building Construction and Technology, along with 11 years of experience in sales and marketing, which diverges from my academic background. This has left me uncertain about the most appropriate path forward.
I have several questions that I hope you can assist me with:
1. Should I pursue a master's degree aligned with my undergraduate studies or my professional experience?

2. What can I expect to achieve with a budget of 12 million naira?

3. Which countries can I consider relocating to within this budget, particularly those with accessible residency pathways and reasonable processing times?.

For your reference, I am 36 years old, married, and a father of two, though I do not plan to relocate with my family at this stage. I would appreciate any insights you can provide regarding the immigration process and potential challenges I may encounter given my situation.

Additionally, I have access to 30 million naira, which can serve as proof of funds, although it will be returned immediately upon visa approval.

First Rule, don't go to UK, AUSTRAILIA, New Zealand, CANADA OR USA, You may end up in any of them later on. For now focus on Iceland, China (you can start importing goods from here, and even get free tuition), Sweden (Scholarships yapa), Norway (High HDI index), Germany (Free Tuition available). In any of them ensure you have an online business that targets Markets in big 5 I mentioned, do your program and from begining plan on exiting to the biggest economy in the world in terms of State (I mean California, preferably San Francisco region). Good luck

How about enlightening everyone in our sphere of influence and beyond to raise the expectations that we have of government officials in the local, state or federal level in either the legislative or executive branch?

If Malian proxies of Arabs and European proxies of Jews could change us to their Abrahamic ways of relating with the Unknown God, then we can surely make ourselves change what we expect governments to do with our commonwealth.

The Unknown God that Apostle Paul preached to Athenians.

its won't work in Nigeria, we are all alike awaiting our own opportunities

Playing with the people's money that should employ more civil servants to make basic services and utilities available. Is that because the people themselves are clueless about governance and are focused on politicking?

Apart from the reserve fund stolen from Rivers people, he also has the FCT money from higher IGR with no oversight from TSA.

you are right, unfortunately, what can we do about it

valentineuwakwe:
The tyrant don hear say coalitions fit join forces...now he has brought his pull out tactics again just to scuttle there 2027 chances same way he did in 2023.

He is coming for vice president under Ribadu in 2031...i pray those he is working against now doesn't work against him tomorrow. Life na turn by turn!

The Wike I know is a deep throat mafia, he knows when to be loyal and who to be loyal to, he knows how to conserve in order to win. All the while before the end of last tenure he was the one funding PDP, he has bought the loyalty of major stakeholders before time and have enough reserve to fund Wahala, apart from the fact that he is a lawyer with long years of knowing how the game works

Omooba77:
Can a Country prosper despite heavy shedding of blood of innocent souls?
With the rate of killings and kidnappings, can our nation prosper. God didn't allow David to build for him due to shedding of lot of blood.

Killings doesn't affect economic development, industrial and economic values does

happney65:

This lady has been reporting me to my friends and particularly my elder sister who liked her so well.My sister challenged me on why I would do that claiming she is a good girl.
She is always checking my status on Whatsapp and I had to block her
How can I keep her shut permanently

Just keep mute, start taking pics with different ladies you meet and always be happy, post jokes on your WhatsApp status, that will drive her up

What Dangote won't tell you is that he does not own the minerals that produces cement but got the license from Federal Government to mine. Because of him others could not get the licenses

i currently reside in the UK and I wanted to invest 9 million naira in the fairmoney 28 percent per annual. I verified my profile already and my daily limit was increased to 20 million naira . So I decided to test the app , and I sent 9 million inside my account, immediately the money hit my account , fair money restricted my account and they are telling me they are investigating where the money is coming from. It’s been 4 days without any solution from them and they are holding my 9 million. I can’t invest it and I can’t even transfer any money out .
Please what should I do ? I have reached out to their customer service and they keep saying I should be patient .
Has anyone ever been through the stress of fairmoney?

call them out on social media, send a mail to CBN and copy them

They have their refineries outside the country and that's why they want the importation to continue.

PressMyButton:
I'm loving this, since President Tinubu opened up the oil sector, it has become a chess game, a price war, call it anything. Remember that Dangote had said on several occasions he has enough fuel to go round, therefore, there's no need for markerters importing fuel. From the article above, you will see where Dangote exported 44,000 tonnes of diesel, very sure he also exported petrol and other products as well. Meanwhile, as that was happening, the marketers ignored Dangote to go import their own petrol into the country. For me, I am neither here nor there, I don't want market monopoly, at the same time, I do not want marketers boycotting local refineries to patronize foreign refineries, I do not also want too much pressure on the dollar for fuel Importation. So, I am caught in between.
However, Dangote is a Don, from what I am observing here, he's a badass capitalist that knows his way around the market. He has warned the importers that he has enough to go round but the marketers insisted they will only buy from where it is cheaper as the market is now a free market. Dangote would then wait for them to go place an order abroad and when their petrol is on the sea, Dangote reduces his own price below the landing cost. By the time, the marketers received their products, they are left with no choice than sell it at Dangote's price. They dare not sell above the price of Dangote. With that, the marketers run into losses.
I heard them crying two months ago that the price crashes made them incur losses when Dangote again crashed the price after FG renewed the naira for crude deal. My observation so far is that Dangote is still controlling the market price and whenever the marketers decided to buy from abroad, he reduces his own price to punish them.

instead of them to create a consortium to create their own refinery

Why I don't even trust that Dr Sandra is for saying she does not know the Senate President and governor Bello. That woman is not to be trusted too.

and senator akpabio was showing missed call on her phone

this is about the death of someone, even if K1 didn't answer the calls, which is deliberate, nothing stops Kollington from paying him a condolence visit, then let K1 lock him out or refuse to see him, then by now Kollington will have a very good reason. nonetheless, it was all a trap by K1
