We can't judge a worldview by it's abuse.

Yes we can! Especially if that "worldview" clearly states that it is by your fruits that you will be known!

Unfortunately, For now only God (the chief Programmer can) Edit, Delete and Restore a Human Soul/Spirit.

"Only God", and those who are perfect even as your
Father which is in heaven is perfect, "can Edit, Delete and Restore a Human Soul/Spirit". The rest of us should perhaps learn the lower skills of faith, hope and the greatest of all which is love, and after which, go for a masters in the 12 fruits (charity, joy, peace, patience, benignity (kindness), goodness, longanimity (forbearance), mildness (gentleness), faith, modesty, continency (self-control), and chastity, according to the more extensive Vulgata), and then might we too do greater things than He did.

Has he defected to APC yet, to avoid prosecution?

Pity sex therapists are scarce. It's not exactly a thing to take to a pastor.

You two need to seriously sit down and talk or you will soon need to be looking for wife number two.

We complain that history is not taught in our schools. Maths, that is taught but not learned is really a bigger problem, and the solution is the individual student who does not burn oil on maths.

Unless ye learn Mathematics, ye shall not begin to comprehend your existence on earth, not to talk of understanding anything about Kingdoms!

Flyingngel:
If our National Assembly were as devoted as UK MP'S, i can assured us Nigeria will be a better place.
Check how they were looking at the PM eye ball to eye ball and tell him the truth especially the Labour opposition leader. Let me not talk abt the speaker he was good.
But one thing i have seen that is common among legislators anywhere is their booing and making noise when the speaker is not in their favour.

If Nigerian legislators were as knowledgeable as UK MPs, you mean, and if our political system was shored by the years of history that shores up UK governance.

One should not expect those who have not sowed to reap what sowers reap. If we too had done well we would be favoured, instead of being bitter like Cain.

We tried eyeball to eyeball parliamentarianism, but Obasanjo said opposition is an enemy and one can't work with enemies so we turned to the more divisive presidential system of America and here we now are.

LordReed:
Afterlife stuff for us is purely academic because it has not been demonstrated in any way. What is more pressing for us is how we live now, a subject religion has a lot to say about and seems to generate a lot of bad ideas Understanding.

Jesus is written to have [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+6%3A25-34&version=NIV]said[/url] don't worry about your daily bread or what you shall eat tomorrow, so a Christian worrying about some afterlife is in error.

Na her first time to play football be this lol

You had elections over there, how did it go on the streets?

shadeyinka:
I will admit that most of the evangelical Atheists come from societies that claim to be "Christian".

Every open Atheist in Saudi Arabia must be dead by now. Atheists in China wouldn't need to preach /debate anyone

When I began playing hockey I'd look at my stick when I missed the ball and think stupid stick until after a few times coach would whack you with his stick and if you got the hump would say, "don't blame me, its me stick".

Atheist tend not to have much beef with religions that do not evangelize is what I've found, and Christians, of all religions, can't help being in your face, especially we Nigerians. People would ask if you were born again or a variation and look at you like you damned and bathed in poo if you said you were an atheist then try to save you as you look at them thinking what part of no gods don't they get. It was comically if not sad that people of Christ will look at one and just damn one to hell. Then they'd pray for you then beg for money at which point I'd be like, did your Jesus saviour not give you any? The cheek of them, asking me they damned to give them my damned money! Yep, they hated me. They still do. How the heck can you expect to receive the money I work hard for when you were singing haleluya hosana to the highest at night vigil and sleeping during the day? They stand a better chance of me gladly paying them if they'd been reading their Bible instead!

Christians need to go back to see how Christ done it is what I think, instead of blaming their lazy incompetence on their stick and the balls of the atheists. The Word does not lie where it says knees bow!

biosystech:
:-XOn the contrary, he's gone far. If you remember 'Humans of Lagos', he was the brain behind it.

Nice one, Tochi. Can see you're fully into videos this time.

They'll get it when afrorossiyatv buys Bentley with their subs.

shadeyinka:
I agree with you but if you look at the ferocity of attacks, I think its heavier towards the Christians. I wonder how Buddhists are even able to stand five minutes of debate....too many things out of place

Pretty well actually, especially if they are well versed in it, though an odd debate since Buddhists don't exactly do or not do gods.

Renderhelp:
I don't know how I'll be able to cater for the kids alone. We have 4 kids and I am pregnant at the moment.

Sister, he de beat you treat you like Vivian maid and you 4 kids and pregnant?

Have you not heard of birth control?

See innovative Nigerians!

Who gave Amuwo Odofin Local Government power of arrest self? We should all go there wearing mask, make them arrest us all!

Google Maps?

Did she marry a pig?

He said he would have been happy to keep the baby but he had big dreams for us. He promised to marry me and we would have more children in the future. For the first time, I slept in his room that night till dawn.

Bearing in mind this is one side of the story and you haven't yet told us how you married him, I am tentatively declaring him a pig, subject to review.

liberalchick:
Phrases like “bitter women” is often used to belittle the movement. You are over compensating so as not be viewed as a man hater. Demanding for your rights so as to have equal opportunities as men doesn’t mean you take men’s away. Demanding that your behavior, choices, aspirations shouldn’t be judged differently because you’re a woman doesn’t mean you look the other way when the choice of a man is judged unfairly.

I'd agree with you except for the assumed right to be pigs that I personally do want to take away from men. I'd over compensate to chop it off if I could even if they hid it in their pants.

We need a sub for Florentino!

Michellekabod2:
Budaatum,
I have come to notice you are pro-women in your judgement (correct me if I'm wrong on this).
All is fair in love and war. A Vanguish should lick his/her wounds and move on with life.
No soul owes anyone a dime. For instance if you train a gal through University,cater for her and her family and she decides not to marry you,lick your wounds and if as a gal you do several abortions for a guy and wash his dresses and cook for him for a decade,if he dumps you,lick your wounds and move on. The cause of many bad marriages is because people marry out of guilt. They feel indebted to their spouses,they follow the advice on online comments on how they must marry him or her else they are wicked. Such marriages will be filled with a struggle to love your spouse and cheating most times..

I am not pro-women in my judgement! I am anti-pigs.

hify9935:
If what OP said is true, the girl according to him was forming "alpha female" if there's any word like that, lol. Asking him not to get emotional and that love is a scam. Why the sudden obsession? The girl being described here is confused.

He chop am sotay im entire family know now come here de complain say e no sweet am anymore! Was she forming "beta female" when he was chasing her?

Please tell if he is not forming "rubbish male"?

Alitair:
Bros easy now.. We are not quarreling sir

I'm wondering if I should not quarrel with you.

hify9935:
Good kwa? Lol. What's your definition of "good". The lady is obsessed. She can kill!

Can she? Didn't know she had history, but he deserves it, in my opinion. She was not obsessed before he defiled her.

EmperorHarry:
He's right..All Christians and religious people should take words of wisdom from what freeze has to say here,regardless of your bias/prejudice.
He seems to agree with you on certain things buda.

I should hope so, on certain things.

I do not tithe. I can't imagine ma tithing instead of buying a better education for me. Now, me and God have this deal that I spend my money educating myself and when I'm done and earning loads I put my earnings and the knowledge I bought to the service of the Lord.

It might be the difference between Cain and Abel's offering that I'm trying to comprehend.

shadeyinka:
However, you've not really said what touches the conscience of Atheists; for the gospel requires a living conscience on which the Holy Spirit do the work of conviction.

"The fool says in his heart", but some think they see into the heart from the words they read, rather lazily at that. Is it not the truth that you had to work to understand my words before seeing a glimpse of my heart?

Atheists are no more fools than a Christian who loves not and lacks charity, for they too say in their hearts, "there is no God", even when the words of their mouth is Lord Lord.

Everyone here who writes a word about God has a "living conscience", and just by being here is seeking the conviction of the Holy Spirit, so I have faith that everyone here will find. Just don't be surprised if the findings don't look as expected by some.

Xisnin:
Why didn't Zimbabwe become a paradise 17 years its after liberation by Mugabe?

It wasn't a paradise, but one shouldn't expect a country owned by a foreign minority to allow it to be a paradise. Not when they are sending the wealth back home. Nigeria realised the same theft far much earlier and imposed the Nigerian Enterprises Promotion Decree way back in 72, which makes me think Zims aren't so smart after all and colonials were selling their usual lies!

Mugabe's error was allowing the silly colonial rent deal to go on too long. And when he revolted they made sure they ruined Zim in a kaka k'eju je sese sort of way.

Shepherd00:
Budaatum wants you to follow Jesus in her way not the ways of Jesus.

You are Shepherd who herds sheep. I am buda, and not your sheep. And Jesus decides who follows him.

I cleared this up on page 1 but it seems your desire is to repeat the crap you insist on making up in your sheepish head!

budaatum:
First, God never said Romans 1:20, "Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God" said that, and Paul is no different to the Adeboye's of today. You would note how he and James [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James+2%3A14-26&version=NKJV]argued over faith and works[/url] like Adeboye and TB Joshua might argue over doctrine today.

Second, why, if you think of it, would an Almighty God ask you to have "blind faith" in him? Is there not sufficient evidence for me to see such that my faith need not be of the blind? Or is it that Jesus has not spat on mud and rubbed it in my eyes and cured me of blindness so that I can see? Is God not real that my faith in God should be blind and unseeing?

Third. Our paths are very different. Some might need to believe when they are as child and before they are healed of their blindness, but I was an atheist from birth until Christ spat on mud and rubbed it in my eyes and preached the Gospel to me and I abandoned my childish ways and now see the immense evidence that forms a solid foundation for my own faith. Note that Saul did not believe before journeying near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven and he fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?” I too was an unbelieving atheist persecuting Christ and did not believe before I went seeking, but sought and then saw and now know.

Please know that I speak not that which everyone must "believe", but that which I know and that is required of me. For the blind were not cured of lameness nor did the deaf receive sight, the lame were not cleansed, and the leper did not receive the cure of blindness. Each received what they came looking for then some poor lot, me, got 'taught' and blessed with the ability to comprehend (as much as I do), and unto those who the ability to understand the things of the Kingdom of God has been given, so much more is required.

It is in that light that I tell you what worship means for me. I am very certain that God might be content with the singing of aleluya amen and tithe paying from some, but some like me must go even much further and sell all of our possessions and follow him. It might be my penance for my many years of atheism, the wages of my sinnings, a sin that not everyone has committed, a penance they need not pay. If only I too had just believed without seeing. But for the grace of God go I. Mind though, I blame God for making me an atheist for so long, but He must have His reasons.

budaatum:
You know what, I would not exactly take your word on what is the Gospel of Christ to be honest. Hopefully in time, other's will come share it with you,

I did not tell anybody not to believe Shepherd. I said, believe if you have not yet asked. But if you "Ask it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you and then will you know. God wants powerful people see. Not just sheep to be shepherded!

And I never told anyone not to worship God! To worship God is do my will, to [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+12%3A30-31&version=NIV]love[/url] your neighbour and to [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+22%3A37-40&version=NKJV]do[/url] unto others as you will have them do unto you, to [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+6%3A12-15&version=NIV]forgive[/url] trespasses so that your trespasses can be forgiven, to [url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+25%3A35-40&version=NIV]feed[/url] the poor and to be “[url=https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+1%3A28&version=NIV]be[/url] fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the face of the earth.” I specifically said that anyone who understands this will even beg God to permit them to worship God!

Non-achievement of desired goals is a cause of depression. Removing obstacles one by one is the solution to it too.

“He knows the plans he has for me, the plans of GOOD and not of EVIL”

God’s plan for me is to Prosper.

You will prosper!

The West have blighted this man with their lies and propaganda.

Zim land was pension for the British Army. And it wasn't measured by how far they could throw stones but how far they bothered to ride their horses on the most fertile Zim land. Then independence came, and Mug agreed they keep the land in return for funding the Zim education system which turned Zims into the most educated Africans.

When Blair came to power, he stopped that funding, so Mug said, "ok, give us our land back then". And in true fashion of the disobeyed, Britain placed on the east side of Zim a cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to force them into poverty.

I wouldn't be surprised to find more "coincidences" when history tells it's truth.
