You are an embodiment of idiocy for not respecting another man's religion.

There is nothing like respecting another man's religion.

We are all guilty of disrespecting other religions, especially those religions that bow down to images.

I am in Lagos presently, and it is damn hot.

We really need to join the rest of the world in addressing climate change.

Wow, with this picture, I finally got enough money to buy my dream car.

Pussywar:
Hello, I just wanted to let you know that just because you got 600 likes doesn't mean you made any sense in your comment. Go and learn to be a proper responsible human being because like the other Lady said, your brain is mixed with fufu. Thanks

I knew my sweet potato will be here.

Hope you monitor your BP every day? I don't want anything to happen to you. You know I love you.

70

Are you people serious at all. Ajimobi 70 years old?

Well, if that is true, then he is aging well.

Pussywar:
If you were the last man on earth, and I was asked to marry you or die, I'd shoot myself. You need to Bleep off.

But I love you

Pussywar:
Here is the attention you wanted, pathetic thing.

I might just be your future husband, you never can tell.

So, watch the words you use on here. Imagine calling your future husband a pathetic thing.

Pataricatering:
He has absolutely no regard or respect for you ! That’s what eventually happens when women stupidly decide to be “ submissive “ ! It’s not in men’s nature to say - she is submissive so let me be kind ! Never ! They will take full advantage if your submission and abuse u as much as they can ! How anyone can sit in a marriage with someone who has no regard for them as a person is something I would never understand .

SMH...

So, your mind is already made up never to be submissive.

Let me tell you, it is far better to be submissive than to be confrontational. A good man will choose a submissive woman over a confrontational woman anytime any day.

In addition, there is nothing in the OP that suggests that she is submissive to her husband. For a man to threaten to turn his children against his wife, it must be that that wife is rude to him or has no regards for elders. In that case, when she receives a dose of her own medicine, she would understand how painful rudeness can be.

That part of whose name a child should bear should be the family’s problem. My husband and I might decide our baby will bear my name or his, that’s between us and it’s our problem. I am talking about being able to dream and aspire without the need to be constantly reminded I’m a woman, limited or pressured.

We are on the same track.

There are still so many pressing issues that feminism should be addressing. But some feminists (unfortunately, they are in the majority), prefer to chase irrelevant issues that would neither preserve nor promote feminism. When they should be addressing issues such as gender-based workforce ratio by encouraging women to aspire more in life, they are squabbling over whose name a child should bear.

queenitee:
I never said a girl should live a boy’s kind of life and vice versa. I only said a girl should be able and allowed to dream and aspire, that doesn’t count as living a boy’s type of life to me, but I don’t know about you.
Thank you and good morning

This is the point I like to make.

Today's feminism largely chases irrelevant issues that make it appear like it has gone into competition with men.

In a world where men still dominate workforces, even in highly liberal societies, and many women still need to sleep with their bosses to get promotion that they deserve, feminists are busy chasing irrelevant issues such as whose name a child should bear.

This thread really pained those misguided feminists.

Pussywar was all over the place whining like a slighted cockroach (apologies to Wole Soyinka).

Pussywar:
People like you that say stuff like this is why feminists will keep existing. Beside a man? Really? Too confident and know your place Your ego, your toxicity and the fact that you think there's a 'place' where women should belong...mehn, I hope you don't have kids.

Oya, sorry.

Stevecovey:
He is even stealing Wizkid fanbase title. I thought his fans were called 30bg. Which one be Davido FC?

Don't mind the guy.

Khaleell001:
Your analogy is just an example of false equivalence.

We were not talking about physical combat, but what the diety of traditional faith could do against an invading enemy which they claim can ward off enemies.

Back to the point, ridiculing something as I said has to be based on facts.

Just let it drop.

You can't argue based on one aspect of wading off enemies.

A God who is alive should be able to win battles for his people. But Allah failed to do so many times in the history of Islam.

Never take a feminist seriously.

I have said it countless times. I am doing my bit to warn our young girls. Be yourselves. Men are not in any sort of a competition with you. And we will never be. We are too confident, and we know too well our place in nature to be struggling positions with you.

See now, one feminist saying trash about men has finally be put in her place by a man.

Khaleell001:
I don't know of any muslim movies that makes these things you mentioned about other gods.
All I know is, one has to respect their limits when it comes to certain religious affairs.

If it happens that certain persons dishonour certain religious beliefs, then we have to look at the perspective they are coming from.

Condemning as to be based on facts of the matter not fiction which this movie clearly shows.
The question is, is it a known fact that Jesus was gay?
No.

As for the traditional beliefs you talked about, we muslims believe the gods they worship have no power and they are indeed powerless because if they were,these gods could have stopped the enslavement of these traditional worshippers when the white slave masters came rippling through whatever defense system they had in place to fend off any enemy,but from history which all know they couldn't.

They are many factual incidences we can narrate about traditional beliefs to support our claims.
We don't make claims based on ridiculing anyone, but to put facts where they truly belong.

The bold is ridiculous.

First, slavery happened everywhere, even in Muslim territories. The easiest way it happened was for village heads to sell slaves to white slave masters in exchange for mirrors or guns. Don't confuse colonialism with the slave trade.

And let me add something to what I think you are driving at.

In 1903 there was a battle that happened between Caliph Attahiru and Lord Lugard in Sokoto. Attahiru (a Muslim) and his army were roundly defeated by Lord Lugard (a Christian).

During the Battle of Vienna, the Muslim Army were roundly defeated by the Christian Army in spite of the fact that the Muslim Army was larger than the Christian Army.

Using the above examples, can we conclude that Allah is powerless?

Khaleell001:
I never said one should take up arms against anyone, but one has to use some of force to ensure people do not go beyond certain limits.

If Netflix as an org goes ahead to blaspheme against religious symbols then we call for their boycott or even the closure of their office(s) if they have any around us to send home the message.

I never mentioned violence but enforcing certain things by use of force to put things in their right place.

Do. you know why I am even defending Jesus?
Because he is my prophet and anything that dishonours him dishonours me as a muslim.

That's why we don't take it lightly with anyone who dishonours any of the known biblical and Qur'anic prophets.
It's part of our faith;and whoever jokes with them, deride them, dishonours them, dishonours us.

Well, the person I quoted originally was envisaging violence. I merely reacted to that post. You were the one who should have read my post in the context before attacking it.

And come to think of it: don't we Christians and Muslims make movies that dishonor traditional gods and goddesses? There are many movies out there where traditional gods and goddesses are called names such as lifeless, powerless, evil. And yet, these traditionalists don't make a big deal out of it.

Ekene161829:
I did something I really regret. My wife and I have an amazing marriage, 2 years of marriage and we are blessed with a 7-month-old baby girl.

She is 28 and I almost 33. Last Saturday I got invited to go out by some of my work friends , I got home late 2am, so madam wasn't happy. She was yelling at me, throwing hands and screaming at me. I ignored her and left the room to the living room but she followed me and I asked her to leave me alone but she kept going which made me angry.

I took the back of my hand and gave her a slap on the mouth. She cried out and held her face and started crying and her lips was bleeding. I didn't intentionally hurt her, I just wanted to calm her down since ignoring her was not working. I said sorry, and I was literally on my knees begging her. I tried to hold her but she refused.
The rest of the night was me repeating apology or i didn't mean to hurt you. She ignored me . She went into our room and locked the door.

She was in there for a long time and the next morning, her mother and older brother was at the house and she came out of the room with her and our baby stuff and she said she was leaving me for good. I told her how sorry I was but her mother told me to get out of their faces and they left the house.

I feel so ashamed and I've never done anything like this before and I never thought I would. I don't want to loose my wife and baby. I need both of them back. Should I attempt to contact her?

What do I do?

This is one-sided.

You came home by 2am. That was enough to get anyone who loves you so worked up and at their wit's end. I am sure you would have reacted just like her if the reverse was the case. It is very evident that you didn't handle her outburst very well or with maturity.

With that said, I have some questions to ask you.

1. Did you keep contacts with her all the time it was past the time you should have been home? Or did you just leave her in the cold and then surface at 2am?

2. What was your initial reaction that made her start throwing her hands and screaming at you? I am sure she didn't just start screaming at you immediately she saw you.

And even if she immediately started screaming at you, how did you interpret it? Did you interpret it as the outburst of a woman who was worried to death that you had not come home after midnight or did you see her outburst as rudeness? Imagine you were the one whose wife was still out after 12am. Would you not be worried to death? And would you not give them some serious lashing immediately you sight them?

Some anger are justified.

xcelentattitude:
Have you read about Mary and Martha of bethany, Mary Magdalene, Jesus's sisters, Peter's mother in law, the woman who anointed him, Susanna, Joanna, Salome etc.... During Jesus's ministry women supported him out of their means more than men.

Great answer. God bless you and your family, bro.

This is the benefit of studying the Word of God. You will always have an answer to give to those who want to mock the Faith.

Ijawwomaninoyo:
Something else is happening in that school, a member of my church slumped and died in his office mid November but it wasn't in the news. I have heard up to 4 after him. How come it now HBP is locating them one by one?

It is becoming very strange.

SarkinYarki:
Under Jonathan Gbajamillia used to give people Keke , full bag of rice and money but under failed Buhari he is giving them poverty kit of garri and groundnut

There is a difference between Christmas package and empowerment.

The Christmas package is just a Christmas gift. You can't be sharing Keke as a Christmas gift. Keke is for empowerment.

Under this same administration, Gbajabiamila has empowered people from his constituency with vehicles ranging from motorcycles to cars.

There is nothing wrong with proposing to a lady before meeting her parents. Many people propose before meeting up with the parents of each other. How can you decide to meet your girlfriend's parents when you have not even proposed to her and she has accepted your proposal?

However in the case in the OP, the man proposing to his girlfriend in front of her father who doesn't know him yet is rude and insensitive, or should I say, was foolish.

Moreover, I don't understand this idea of making a public proposal. There are more romantic ways of making a proposal. With a public proposal, it would be hard to tell if the girl is accepting the proposal because she wants to or because she doesn't want to embarrass the guy. But with a private proposal, you can be certain about it.

Khaleell001:
Even at that, Jesus is not a meeky man you portray him to be in your Bible.
He knew Peter had no chance with his knives against the well trained Roman guards who would exterminate them if they dared to stop them from arresting Jesus hence he adviced Peter.

But to say Jesus was silent about everything and did nothing when he saw something wrong going on is a lie from the pit of hell.

The synagogue scene depicted what every Christian should do.

You don't desecreate religious symbols and say God will fight for you when you have the ability to at least condemn such bad actions.
At the synagogue Jesus knew he could change things hence he turned over the tables of money changers and whipped them out of the synagogue and clearly told them. my father's(metaphorically He meant God) house is not a den for thieves

Let me ask you a straight forward question;
If someone depicts your mum as a LovePeddler,as in, an Ashawo (sorry if this sounds harsh) in the public and you have the ability to lash back or even condemn such act will you keep quiet and allow such evil to fester? In the name of one yeye and stupid tolerance? Will you?


And again, if I were to follow this your logic, I don't think we need security outfits, soldiers, Air Force, Navy to man and protect our country from enemies within and without.
We should just leave it to God for Him to fight for us isn't it?
This. would be simpler don't you think?

Even Jesus condemned the scribes and the Pharisees for changing God's law;he called them vipers and snakes;he even called them sinful and adulterous generation and yet, his so called followers or worshippers are doing the exact opposite and they are allowing evil to spread in the name of tolerance.
What a joke!

The bold does not follow my logic. We need soldiers for our security. But God does not need us for His security. We don't need to fight for Him. I can't even understand why you find it difficult to understand what I am trying to pass across to you.

As for your last paragraph, Jesus condemned the Pharisees, He didn't kill them.

No one said you shouldn't condemn Netflix. But if you take up arms against Netflix, then you are a murderous lot, and even God will reject you.

You are getting everything wrong.

You can condemn without getting violent.

I have condemned the act myself. But wishing to go violent over this issue is nothing but absurd.

And mind you, Christ did not rebuke Peter because Peter didn't stand a chance. Christ rebuked Peter because Peter was trying to fight for Christ when Christ Himself was capable of fighting for Himself.

If you read the Bible verse I attached to my post, you will see that Jesus said He was capable of managing the situation by merely calling to His Father.

We don't need to fight for God. It is not one of our duties. God is more than capable of fighting not only for Himself but every good person out there.

Only idols who are lifeless need people to fight for them.

You can rebuke Netflix all you want. But to think of taking up arms to fight for God is nothing but foolishness.

Khaleell001:
I thought was so. meek and a none violent persona that when he got to the synagogue where money changers had spread and trade being carried out ,he look all. of them and said God will fight for me shay?

Some of you are so clueless that you do that know when to condemn something evil. that is why Christianity is so far a way from the life Jesus Christ lived.

If Jesus. was so dear to. you you would condemn such blaspheme in the strongest them. yet, you supposedly profess love to. him. like a fool.

I doubt if someone potrays your mum or your wife in such manner you will pat them. on the back for doing a good job because you are tolerant.

This is why I see Christians as anti Christ they claim. with their tongue but they do the exact opposite.

What a people!

It was Jesus Christ (not just a man) who did that in the temple.

You are a mere mortal. You shouldn't be fighting for your God except you think your God is dead or does not exist.

If you believe God exists, you don't need to fight for Him.

When Peter wanted to fight for Jesus, what did Jesus tell him?

Don’t you realize that I could ask my Father for thousands of angels to protect us, and he would send them instantly? (Matthew 26:53)

Another OAU lecturer!!

First, it was Igbokwe who died in his office.

And then, Elusiyan who was assassinated.

And now, Adeniyi.

All OAU lecturers, dying within one month.

OAU needs serious prayers.

Instead of that stupid David to distance himself from those illiterate fans, he is still trying to identify with them by referring to them as Davido FC.

lloyds:
The producer and cast crew would have all died by now.
No one.tries.nonsence with Islam.

So, you support religious violence?

Awoo88:
Sometimes I wish Christian could as violet as Muslims. This disrespect is getting out of hand

Don't be carnal minded. Put your mind in higher things.

Don't see these things as disrespect, but as some of the persecutions that Christ said we would have to bear as believers.

Did Christ not forgive those who crucified Him like a common criminal? Which disrespect comes close to that that Jesus got when He was crucified like a common criminal by the Roman Empire?

When Peter (being led by the flesh) got violent with the men that wanted to arrest Jesus, did Jesus thank him or rebuke him?

Please, you need to read the Bible thoroughly so that you can attain spiritual maturity. No Christian should be talking about violence over matters like this. Even when the Church was constantly persecuted physically, did any Christian resort to violence?

Today's Christianity has not even seen half of the persecutions that the Early Christians went through and yet you people are thinking of behaving like misguided Muslims.
