adextaiwo84: OMG....1st to comment, celebration galore

your mates are creating topics that are getting to the front page and u're celebrating first to comment, SMH are u a learner? @op, wow I'm really impressed this is something very commendable, wish u all the best smally, the sky's ur limit dude.

Smh for CAN, so it has gotten to the stage where CAN is now the in house mediator of peace for a dirty political party like PDP, what a shame, na D christians when all these CAN leaders dey lead na I sorry for pass.

chikk: Friendship? Love? Understanding? With '...not too favourite...' On your subject? If people are to list their 'not too favourite' NLers here, then would you be promoting friendship or starting an e-war? Better take this to joke section.

hatred/dislike is aLl still part of romance, u can't tell a good romantic story without talking about hatred, it could be about hating an ideology or hating what a person stands for, all in all it all has to do with emotions,

sweet-tease:
I like idowuogbo our badosky..... She is very real
dopejemi, CFCfan, Goshen360, 190(sometimes lol), gree-die,sybellah, sexkillz and ogugua88(don't know why they'v got so many haters), etc(can't remembr some)

Not too favourite : cameroonpride

I don't like kingwax and bidvest2020

yeah this is more like it, thanks for ur contribution,

chikk: @OP, there's nothing romantic about this but if it must be on romance section, then you should limit it to this section alone, not NL as a whole. #dont even know these people you mentioned.

I disagree wit u, it has everything to do with romance, this is a tale of friendship, understanding and love on nairaland, most of them are atheists and pastors on nairaland,

gree-die:
and this is romantic, how??

if u read my post, u'll hear me using words like "love" and "like", those are romantic words right?

.

Well, nairaland has become like a part of my life (for now) I can't imagine going a day without checking out what's going on here, and I've seen lots of different folks from the comic to the sadist, but all in all I've got so much love for my nairalanders,

Well my favorite nairalanders are the freethinkers on here, and the first on my list is MUSKEETO, I love d nigga, d nigga has a sense of twisted humor, he is one crazy motherfuckha,

I like, Rossik, Ooman, logicboy, sauer, and most of the atheists/freethinkers,

I've also got love my religious folks, I've got love for Ihedinobi, frosbel, goshen360,

Then the other folks I've got love for are, kenyatamoore, tenderly, ezme, 4words, shymex, BEaf (the nigga's bleeped up) well these are the names I can think of for now, share yours.

Hmmmm, I see brother frosbel becoming a freethinker one of these days,



Mark my words!!!

wealthpos: Peeps...PLease can someone tell me the best out of this three skills....1.Language 2.Agriculture 3.music.

Please be specific when replying..Thanks

well language, is better than the aforementioned, if u could learn german, japanese, chinese or russian, I assure u, your services would be highly needed in third world countried where these people operate, as per music, unless u're talking about musical instruments, but if u're not, anybody can sing or rap, if psquare as wack as they are are selling millions of records, I doubt u won't do beta, but just stick to language.

mumumugu: Let me gues, op , you are the one


the devil flew from your pastor to you and you were possesed instantlmy

nahh, I'm agnostic, I don't have a pastor.

.

overdrive: He deserves to be lynched if a non Christian abuses our Lord Jesus will he be able to stand up and fight.

that's the funny thing mann,

musKeeto: He was being a Good Christian. He simply obeyed God. By stopping him, you have attracted curses upon yourself.

lol,*singing* ( muskeeto muskeeto, why are u biting me), this is ma nigg.a right here, he always has something funny to say.

4words: Life is crazy and I must say some people do a lot of crazy things for crazy reasons...

Let me guess the pastor church's name... Hhum hnmmm hmmm Gospel church

lol, yeah, something like that, the church is in benin, but I don't know the exact name of the church,

I've seen a lot of crazy ish in my life, but this is one of the craziest, we were chilling in a room talking and playing around as we usually do, then this guy (who's always had crazy christian doctrines and tenets) calls my friend's pastor a Devil, so my friend was kinda taken aback and he retorts and calls the guy's pastor a Devil too, and the guy gets visibly upset and tells my friend not to say that again,

my friend says it again and trys to point out to him that u can't call someone's pastor a Devil and when the same name is given to your pastor u're getting angry,

At this time the guy tells my friend he's going to stab him if he calls his pastor a devil again, and before u know, what started as a joke turned into a serious fight, with this guy going outside of the compound and using all sorts of weapons to fight my friend, if not for my intervention and a couple of guys around, someone would have been killed. The guy in question ended up being beaten seriously by my friend,

This guy is no kid, he is in his mid 30s, and he's supposed to be mature but I was really surprised how the whole thing escalated from caLling someone's pastor a devil to trying to kill someone,

I realize now that there are many fanatical christians out there who are ready to kill literally for their pastors, and for their faith, and that realization gives me the jitters, my gosh, it sEems that very soon we won't only have to cope with muslim fundamentalists/fanatics, but we are gon have to cope with some crazy bokoharamish christians,

*yawns*

honeric01: Well i believe if everyone of us on this thread concentrate in changing the mentality of our siblings, then we'd grow confidence in changing our neighbor.

Once we have examples around us (Family members), we'd have more "dignity" when talking to others.

u're right mann,

honeric01: blame blame blame.

You lot should tell us what you're doing to your own immediate siblings, how have you changed things with them?

well in my own way, I'm doing my best to create an awareness about the dangers of fastlife to my siblings and the young people I have around me, and I'm using the internet also, like exactly what I'm doing here by creating this topic.

This is not scam!!!









THIS NA PURE WAYO!!!!

Holuwahphemy: Guys, can you allow your girl to wear this in public. Ladies, can you also wear this top in public?

na only asha.wo go fit wear dis kind shirt comot.

fresh_dude: You'd be surprised what turns women on.

hahaha, that's hilarious mann, I think the OP's just pulling our legs, he's kidding, takea look at his moniker for christ sakes,

Iamoilprince: It is true we have heard of so many crazy things being done by private universities, but could this be true that this happened to people that attended church late?

OIL PRINCEE..COM

this is very distasteful, what the Bleep,

PweetiQueensy: datz DISCIPLINE

tell me u're joking? U call tha discipline, hmmm, well this goes to show that the Religion is indeed the root cause of most problems we face in this country, this is distasteful in this present day and age, university students are being asked to kneel down for coming late to church and u caL it discipline, SMH.

Creatrixity: We have got young dudes who all want to be the next wizkid,ice prince etc but they conveniently forget that 85 percent of people going into the entertainment industry NEVER make a headway.
Conspiracy theorists will say there is a 'dumbing down' of young black folks..Think i am lying?There is a reason the American entertainment industry is made up of young black people while almost all the whizzes at stanford are white..Ponder on these things..

you're very correct my good mann, it seems there's a deliberate dumping down of the youths,

Ihedinobi: It matters little what the consequences of mistakes are and who's responsible for their existence as far as this discussion is concerned.

What matters is that the existence of mistakes is strong evidence, in fact, pretty conclusive evidence for the existence of a design.

So, how is mutation evidence for the absence of a designer?

And since, you mentioned proteins, why do they have to fold in exactly a particular way to be of benefit to the living organism? Also, how does the fact that human beings produced a DNA that codes proteins perfectly prove that there is no design in nature?

Edited.

I love this guy, he's got spartacus balls. Lolz,

inspiredbyGOD:.:
Rossik, why did our ancestors leave their own concept of God for that of the foreigners?

I know the question was'nt directed at me, but it's a very simple question, our ancestors had no choice, it's either they embraced everything the white man brought with him I.e, education, religion, or face the wrath of the white man, so as sensible people they did what every sensible man/woman would do, they grudgingly conceded to defeat, if u read chinua achebe's book things fall apart, you'll understand this better.

dj militant: I heard of that documentary on poverty in nigeria i think many people need to see that film b4 there eyes will open

please I would appreciate if u could give us the link to the video, I heard the federal government banned the video.

ezme: Another problem is the pop and hip-hop culture, its influence on our youths and the present craving for drugs. Boys are trying so many things you would not even think of. People are now taking sedative for mental patients as recreational drugs. Every drug seems to be an OTC drug in Nigeria. I lost a friend to pentazocine addiction, he died in his sleep. Drug-abuse I believe would take more lives in the near future.

we are sorry to hear about your friend my good mann, and u've raised another issue that should be addressed with utmost severity, and that's the hip hop/pop culture, I believe another thread should be created to talk more about the negative effects of the hip hop/pop cultures, their affiliation with drugs and fast life, another thread should be created to talk more about that.

Creatrixity: I believe it will be some time before we see the advent of literary giants like them..In these days of 2go and fb.Many friends of mine can't write good essays anymore due to lack of exposure to good materials.The only thing they read is hints!!!

it's really very unfortunate my good mann,

Creatrixity: This is a masterpiece of satire!lol..Sadly the truth.Most Nigerian youths spend all their time learning meaningless dances while others are inventing or coming up with new ideas or improving on existing stuff.Tis a shame..

very true my mann, sometimes I wonder if we're ever gonna get another chinua achebe, or wole soyinka,

Rossikk: Many people have been turned off God because of the numerous contradictions and incongruities inherent in their imported notions of the Almighty.

They can't understand why 'God' would do things like order massacres, tempt his people, have 'chosen people', create 'hellfire' and numerous other things that contradict the image of a Perfect Being.

The problem of such people stems from ACCEPTING AT FACE VALUE the accounts of these IMPORTED FAITHS regarding what 'God' supposedly did and didn't do, said and didn't say.

Did your African ancestors not believe in God?

OF COURSE THEY DID.

Did they propagate stories about God supposedly appearing to them, sending ''his son'', and his ''prophets'', 'Garden of Eden', 'Adam and Eve temptation' 'hellfire' and all such tales?

NO!

Who taught you those things that ''GOD'' supposedly did?

FOREIGNERS FROM THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY.

Their stories have NOTHING to do with the African experience and conceptualization of GOD.

As far as OUR ancestors were concerned, GOD is ALOOF from human affairs.

He is FAR TOO MIGHTY to be involved directly in human affairs.

Hence, the importance of ancestors, guardian spirits, deities (powerful spirits), who play the role of INTERMEDIARIES between us and God.

According to AFRICAN RELIGION, Human life is just a brief journey. After our journey, each of us RETURNS to the realms of spirits, OUR TRUE HOME from where we came. No conditions. No need to convert to any faith. No need to abide by any creed. WE ALL TRANSIT TO OUR TRUE HOME UPON PASSING, JUST AS NATURALLY AS WE TRANSITED HERE AT BIRTH WITH NO PRE-CONDITIONS.. Death is only a TRANSITION BACK to our state of spirit BLISS. WE LIVE FOREVER.

FINISH!

No 'ten commandments', No 'Jesus'. No 'Mary'. No 'Elijah'. No ''chosen people''. No Adam. No Eve and Snake, No 'Miracles'. No STORIES. You cannot have a story about GOD. Any story that claims to be about God or relating to God, is 100000% FALSE.

Whoever the Jews claim to have encountered in their book - it was NOT God the Creator. Maybe he was their tribal deity or even some alien entity. BUT IT WAS NOT GOD THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSES.

How can you say that God has a set of ''chosen people'', feels 'jealousy', demands worship? Orders ra.pe and mass murder? Characteristics that turn Him into a human-like, tin-pot dictator caricature? All claims by foreign books of indeterminate origin. WHY should you believe them?

WHY?


If the Almighty God did not appear to OUR ANCESTORS, HE DID NOT APPEAR TO ANYONE ELSE'S ANCESTORS EITHER.


I repeat for sake of emphasis.

If the Almighty God did not appear to OUR ANCESTORS, HE DID NOT APPEAR TO ANYONE ELSE'S ANCESTORS EITHER.

...and ANYONE who asks you to believe he did is LYING TO YOU AND MANIPULATING YOU IN ORDER TO ELEVATE HIS OWN HERITAGE, HISTORY AND CULTURE OVER YOURS. IN ORDER TO ELEVATE HIS VERY EXISTENCE OVER YOURS. IN ORDER TO PLACE HIMSELF AS THE PERPETUAL LEADER, AND YOU THE PERPETUAL FOLLOWER. IT IS A TRICK AND A SCAM.

So the SOLUTION to your dilemma is VERY SIMPLE.

Instead of coming here to INSULT the Creator due to the contradictions of your foreign imported beliefs -

Return to the way your ANCESTORS - the world's first religious people - whom you've totally abandoned and scorn - RETURN TO THEIR CONCEPTUALIZATION OF GOD. STUDY IT. REVITALISE IT. MODERNISE IT. AND EMBRACE IT.

AND YOUR DILEMMA WILL END INSTANTLY.

op I love u for this, and I wish I had people who reason like u around me,

It's very sad that a tribal vengeful blood thirsty evil spirit of the jews has now bEen given the title of God almighty, very sad, nice piece mann,
