If those guys were guilty like you claimed..why hasn't your god (Trump) ensure that they are prosecuted?
Let me guess: he has no dirt on them!
Instead, it's Trump's own friends that are being convicted left, right and centre

Those people he mentioned are the President of America. I'm certain if Trump were President he'd have drained the swamp by now.

Sanction Nigeria? Seriously is either the Ops lack the knowledge of international relation.
1. Sanction means Nigeria will withdraw it's membership from Commonwealth nations
2. All the assets of BP and other oil companies own by citizens of UK will be taken over by FG.

Don't mind them. Lobby groups don't make policy in UK, and BP has a lot more money to lobby goverment to protect their assets.

The Bible is definitely fallible. What is truth though is the word of God . The words out of the mouth of God- that is what matters most.

That may very well be the case, but I'm sure you'd agree that the ears of humans are not as infallible as God's mouth. And then there's a certain being called satan who loves always getting in the way.

A reason for humility, I think, that which a certain Pharisee lacked.

If anything I believe religion makes people lazy, hence the poverty in Nigeria.

Politician have stolen their future

And wonder why the country is like this.

Is it that people are dragged to a religious place where they are made to be lazy? You do know those people pay for the privilege in the form of tithes, a tenth of their earnings, or rather - since they have no jobs - of whatever money they may have?

Please tell me if they wouldn't be financially better off selling akara instead of letting the little they have be stolen from them!

God is true and His word Truth. And Truth has no contradictions in it( logic)

So the lies are not His but we know man lies....

Those contradictions you mention are precisely of human making, and you'd find we've made them while writing the God books we read. You'd even find them amongst books in the Bible, but I'm sure we'd agree God is not the Book.

We humans tend to think our version is the godly truth and that of others is the lie, but I love how Jesus taught us not to commit the sin of hubris.

“[url=https://classic.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke%2018:9-14&version=NIV]I tell you[/url] that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

@bolded, I hope you know Nigeria is a third world country yet very religious.

I don't see how religion is pertinent here, though I must say it teaches some to expect a messiah to solve their problems and for manna to fall from heaven right into their waiting open mouths.

The smart and wise go up to heaven and grab manna for themselves, is what I find, and some thank God for the entrepreneurship that enabled them to do so.

I don't particularly care whether the country is first or third class, though I did study and work in a restaurant in UK if that helps, and I sold eggs and can coke at the toll gate to fund my getting there, and cleaned toilets to fund my education.

My point is, whereever one is, one does what one needs to do to fund the life one wants to live or one starves or begs or steals.

But they don't! That's the point.

It is easier than you think to worship an idol made in the image of God.

But they most certainly do. And most worship the image of God that they manage to have created in their heads. That's why a Christian would call Christian you a non-Christian. You don't fit the image of God that they have created in their head.

@OP, they cannot logically worship the same God, and God is not as illogical as men like to pretend that He is.

But they do worship the same God! Just in different ways. Or you might as well argue Catholics don't worship the same God as Baptists.

Yes I do see such in first class countries. Graduates selling bread, driving a cab, going back to school to learn to be a nurse and so on and so on. My job after graduating in engineering was as a restaurant manager, though you might argue the first class country bit.

If the purpose of education is for financial gain, then we all should be studying how to make money 101, Theory of becoming rich 227 in the university.

The purpose of education is not money, or food but to establish a better life in Nigeria, in the whole world, no more foreign expatriate, no more travelling overseas for medication.

I think you are trying to trick or deceive me.

My own opinion is that a better life includes earning an income, and to be honest with you, they should teach its making as part of a degree course, or smart people should find a place to learn how to earn an income. There are courses in entrepreneurship after all.

As for "no more foreign expatriate, no more travelling overseas for medication", I plead the Serenity Prayer and the self-incrimination clause of the Fifth Amendment.

You expect someone who studied Structural Engineering to start selling Akara, that's not how it should be.

Listen well, their are entrepreneurs and then their are those who must be part of the system for things to work.

How should it be? Work no be work? I thought the point you were making was the system does not need them which is why they can't find someone to pay them to work!

They could consider selling dundun or dodo if they can't sell akara. Money na money after all, and work is whatever one does to get it.

I may be wrong though, but in the far far future it may extinct.

I think more people are leaving religion. The only draw back is that most non-religious people don't give birth like their religious counterpart.

I think most people say they are leaving or have left religion. When one digs deep, religion never leaves them.

You need to work harder to stop the professional health workers from murdering our black unborn babies 'legally' since we now live in the city.

No I don't "need to work harder to stop the professional health workers from murdering your black unborn babies 'legally'", since that's not the battle I commit to, and you have not been able to convince me to abandon my battle and help you fight your battle, which in my opinion, is based on a myth. Or do these so called "professional health workers" legally murder your "black unborn babies" without the permission of the person the baby is unborn in? And why isn't it illegal?

How about you fight your battle and I fight mine? I'm sure the world would be a better place if we both win.

No you're getting it wrong, some of us are entrepreneur hence independent, I'm talking of those that study medicine will never have an opportunity as everyone runs outside for treatment, lawyers are silenced and must dance to corruption, engineers all turned to part assemblers, those that are even lucky.

If structure will continuously be given to white and Chinese men, then a structural engineering graduate just wasted his life in school.

I do not agree that "those that study medicine will never have an opportunity as everyone runs outside for treatment", or that "lawyers are silenced and must dance to corruption", or that "engineers all turned to part assemblers", or that a "structural engineering graduate just wasted his life in school", nor does the evidence agree with you. I am absolutely certain you know all those you mention can make themselves so valuable (entrepreneurial, I should say), that someone would beg to pay them.

In the scheme of things, graduating from university merely qualifies you for an apprenticeship which takes longer than spent getting a degree. Perhaps they should widen their horizon by studying more, or not limit themselves to what they studied in school and working in Nigeria and instead run outside for a job. But if they can't find someone to pay them they can always set up privately, selling akara for instance. They'd likely be better at it than an uneducated person and could become NSE listed Akara Plc Nig Ltd.

No one said life was easy, and not being responsible for food on one's table is a recipe for starvation.

The best we can do is not to resist arrest in any way or form otherwise we give the untrained racist police the privilege of murdering us.

I never knew their job was to murder those they ought to arrest. If they had murdered Roger Stone Trump wouldn't have needed to commute his sentence.

Thankfully, we are working real hard to stop them murdering those they intend to arrest since we don't live in a jungle.
