EducationRe: No More Department Of Mass Communication In Nigerian Universities. Read Why by BluntBoy(m): 10:09am On Jan 09, 2020
babtoundey:
I wanted to ask the same question.

But, Theatre Arts an extension of or alternative to Mass communication? No. It can and will never be. Theatre Arts is a world on its own. As listed above (with reference to Masscomm), Theatre Arts has very numerous arms and each arm is elaborate and interesting. That's why Theatre is always called a synthesis/complexus of many Arts.

It's only in Theatre Arts you will be doing history, classics, Masscom, Linguistics, English related course. Of you can't endure, theatre isn't for you
Theatre Art is not a world on its own. It is a branch of performing arts. If you read further, you would understand why they take up courses such as classics, mass communication, linguistics.

Every department does a variety of courses outside their major discipline. There is nothing special about that. It is just how education should be. There is hardly a department where you won't do history, statistics, English and some English-related courses, even if they are all combined into a GES course.

Look at him trying to sound diplomatic. I repeat I will buy your inheritance and where you work for our prayer ground as a punitive lesson for saying the rubbish that Christianity is dead.
The truth is bitter, son.

Christianity is dead.

After the death of Christ, we had the saints who constituted the Early Church. They were not called Christians because they built churches or preached every Sunday/Saturday. They were called Christians because the unbelievers could not tell them separately from Christ. In other words, they saw everything about Christ in them. You can't buy this Christ-like quality with money. So, if you like, buy all the available lands on Earth, you won't be able to buy your way into Heaven nor would you be able to buy the sort of Christianity that the Early Christians practised.

Christianity is dead. What we have is an empty shell. A religion no different from other religions of this world.

Christianity as a way of life died with the Early Christians.

Just as you are dead? Shut up! Your opinion about Christianity counts as ant droppings.
Just wait until I buy your inheritance, your work place for our new prayer grounds. sad sad
Christianity is not about buying the whole world.

If you like turn all the buildings on this Earth into churches, it wouldn't matter. What matters is the people that worship there.

If there are 30 million churches in this world but you find it hard to find one genuine Christian, than all those church buildings are a big waste.

A true Christian would have said Wait until I convert you

But rather, your sight was on the things of the world. So, you wrote Wait until I buy your inheritance

To you, the church is marching on based on the number of church buildings. But what is the essence of a church building full of spiritually dead Christians such as yourself?

And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul? (Matthew 16:26)

The angels rejoice in Heaven when a soul is won, not when a church building is erected.

Truth is, Islam takes no prisoners! Islam is an either or proposition!! Taqqiya is the tool of deception to not allow folks see Islam in its true light. The strategy is to play the victim until they are sufficiently empowered to take over and thereafter clamp Sharia on all. With Sharia fully in place it is beheading to speak of another belief system! Little wonder, the prodigiously learned Lateef Adegbite in his lifetime speaking as Sec Gen NSCIA the other day vociferously spoke against the classification of BH as a terrorist organisation. The goal is to Islamise every space and clampdown with Sharia. Not good. Better to live and let live. Worship what you will while I do same without stress. I know that can’t be because Islam is an either or proposition! It takes no proposition!! The days ahead calls for insistence on religious freedom. Buhari is presently about Taqqiya
Islam is not peaceful. But Christianity is not peaceful either.

If you are a Christian, you have just ended up maligning a whole religion. This is, in fact, one way Christianity shows its own violence. A lack of tolerance.

I dare you to go to Winner's Chapel and call Oyedepo a fool. I am very certain there would be many Christians there ready to put a dagger in your chest.

So, you have it. While many Muslims go violent over their prophet Muhammad, many Christians go violent over their Daddy GOs.

I have been cursed with death here on Nairaland simply because I spoke against a pastor. If that is not violence, then, tell me what is.

Adeboye said he wants a Redeem Church in every street corner. Is that not Christianizationhuh cheesy

bros. you 'll not understand, because you 're still in comfort zone.
self-defence is never a crime. in the same scripture, david was a man of war, yet God defined him as a man after his heart. shedding of an innocent blood is what God abhor. its highest folly to allow those 2k brain, to waste your life and destiny, if you can defend your self and loved ones. christ didn't fight back, because he was destined to die, in the hands of the wicked to fulfil the scriptures, and redemption of mankind. but as for you, who do u intend to redeem ?
When you wrote self-defense, were you referring to the US-Iran faceoff?

If yes, I don't see how the US assassinating an Iranian general constitutes self-defense.

Moreover, there is always a motive for everything. What is Leke's motive for supporting Trump?

From his write-up, it is evident what his motive is. Just like every ignorant Christian out there, he is seeing this faceoff from the perspective of religion. To him, the United States represents Christianity and Iran represents Islam.

By writing that no one has a monopoly on rascality, it is very evident that Leke is throwing shades at Islam. This amounts to heating up the polity. A supposed pastor should talk less. By talking so much, he is daily exposing his baffling ignorance.

If an Islamic sect blows up his father's church, how would he feel if someone somewhere overtly rejoices?

You actually think Christianity is waxing stronger? They are making a mockery of Christianity everywhere, especially in Africa. From someone calling God on his cellphone to a group of church members eating grass. There are those bowing down to images and those making sextapes of them performing MouthAction on a woman. And those claiming that all pastors like big booty women.

This is not about the UN.

American soldiers are not allowed to kill civilians, even during wartime. You can get a life sentence for it. Same with Indian soldiers. These armies are the most disciplined in the world. They are not disciplined because of UN or the Geneva Convention.

However, you can't rule out civilian casualties during wartime. It would happen. But when it is premeditated, the soldier involved can get a life sentence.

The fact that you are in a war does not mean you can hit anyone.

You are only allowed to hit enemy armed forces (or whatever constitutes armed, e.g., insurgents). You are not allowed to hit unarmed civilians.

Eze2000:
But solves a lot with regards to terrorism that is why you have yet another war.
It solves nothing.

The United States has always gone to war over pretence of keeping the world together. They went to war with Iraq over false allegations of Iraq possessing Weapons of Mass Destruction. It turned out that Bush never followed Intelligence reports because it turned out that Intelligence reports never stated that Iraq had Weapons of Mass Destruction.

Same thing is repeating itself now. Trump is justifying his killing of an Iranian Army General by claiming that it should have happened a long time ago when the slain general was a terrorist by every standard laid down. Was he killed because he was a terrorist in the 80s-90s or because he was still a terrorist? Later, to further justify the killing, they said the Army General was planning an attack on the United States citizens. It turns out that even this intelligence gathering had more to do with the army general's past as a terrorist than his present life as an army general.

At the end of the day, it would turn out that Trump (just like Bush) had nothing concrete for trying to invade a Middle Eastern country. Then the Intelligence unit would deny ever telling Trump that the Iranian Army General was planning to attack the United States.

Biafrarep:
Netanyahu is a wise man and he is using wisdom and psychology. He doesn't want the world to see Israel as the aggressor when hostilities eventually commence in full force. Firstly, he knows that America is more than capable to hold its own so no need to join forces with them which would immediately draw global sympathy to the Iranians. By acting neutral now (while waiting for Iran to make the first move) he will deny Iran the luxury of being seen as the oppressed. Israel is most definitely ready and anticipating Iranian aggression which they would eventually counter with more than equal and opposite reaction. Israel is excited with Trump's action no doubt but they are trying to play safe by not being seen as the aggressor. Anyone who sees Netanyahu's red herring as a sign of cowardice is not a good student of international politics and warfare.
Who told you that the United States can hold its own against Iran?

This is not 1945. This is 2020.

Please, read an excerpt of an article on CNN website:

It may be up to Trump and his allies to show some diplomatic subtlety. Negotiations are now urgent or Iran might indeed bring the house down
https://edition.cnn.com/2019/10/03/middleeast/iran-war-games-kiley-intl/index.html

Another one:

Iran's agenda is clear: to signal that it can cripple shipping in the Persian Gulf using mines placed on supertankers, in operations it denies.

And let's not forget the Hezbollah cells and Iranian intelligence operatives seeded around the world. Poised to strike at enemy (American or Israeli) targets wherever they present themselves.

The very reasons that hawks in the Trump administration wanted to hamstring Iran and get out of the nuclear agreement are those that make attacking it so dangerous
https://edition.cnn.com/2019/10/03/middleeast/iran-war-games-kiley-intl/index.html


One important strength the Iranians have against America is its ability to cripple the world's most important seaway.


Abu Dhabi has the lion's share of the Emirates oil -- but like Dubai it sits within range of conventional Iranian artillery, let alone sophisticated missiles [Check Link Above ]

And yes, Iran has some of the baddest nuclear physicists on earth.

And moreover, the Iranians, just like the rest of the Arab nations, can fight dirty (insurgent-like).

The truth is, no one can say how this war would end. But it would be brutal. And Iran has a better chance of winning it. Not necessarily defeating the United States in firepower.

Attacking Iran would set off a complex war that simply could not be won by the West and its allies -- and could easily be lost. [Refer to links above]

Eze2000:
Russia invaded that land first and was forced to pull out in the end. The US is still there.

The thing about Afghanistan that has made it unconquerable for centuries is the layout of its landscape. It's too rugged and difficult to cover and yet so vast.

Iran is not so
The layout has very little to do with it.

The fact is that the most difficult countries to go to war with are Arab nations where Islam is the prominent religion (Are there even any Arab Christian nationshuh )

Lord Lugard acknowledged this when he was about to go to war against Attahiru, the Caliph of Sokoto, in 1903.

The Muslims have a way of turning a war into a jihad and by the time you are long into the war with them, you will start regretting why you started it in the first place because wars like that hardly ends.

Post riddled with lies and half-truths! Israel is a Jewsish state, not Christian. The Jews hold about 74% majority and decide what happens in their country! And these Jews have a majority that practise their Judaism. Stop deceiving people with that thing you wrote up there, clandestinely using Christians as though Israel is a Christian state.

The Judeo religion is sympathetic to Christainity and in fact they are tied together, as they are from the same source . So there shouldn't be comparisons between Muslims and Christians in Israel. The correct comparison should be between Judaism and Islam. And if you do that the majority is clear!

Here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Israel

The Muslims hold 20%.
So, Islam is not from the same source as Judaism abi?

Is Islam no longer an Abrahamic religionhuh

That is why you have to provide correct information when you call 911.

As for response time, it can vary. Sometimes, it can take as long as 48 minutes.

There was a story I read of a woman whose husband called 911 because a strange man was getting violent in front of their house. The police response time was 48 long minutes. The first officer contacted to travel down to the location said he had no car available.

But all in all, they are miles ahead of the Nigeria police force.
