MrPresident1:
A trump is a victory, a victory is a trump
A trump is a win, a win is a trump


Ever since his trump over Clinton in the elections, President Trump has moved from one trump, or victory, to the other! He has trumped everything in his path, now he has another TRUMP in the Supreme court, which has now allowed hin to proceed with building the wall.

THIS IS A MASSIVE TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP!

He has celebrated his trump on Twitter, calling it a big VICTORY and a big WIN

"Wow! Big VICTORY on the Wall. The United States Supreme Court overturns lower court injunction, allows Southern Border Wall to proceed. Big WIN for Border Security and the Rule of Law!"
I can't believe they did this! I'm completely flabbergasted!


Trump! 4 + 4!

Morality is essentially man made. It does not mean it is bad, every society sets its codes of conduct. This enables societal living and some measure of harmony (minimization of conflict). Still, morality is man made, in my opinion.
Life made. Animals in the forest have morals as do bacteria.

Those who don't have morals are the dead.

Who Chains You?

The op is being liberal with his "Nigeria simply means “The Nigger Area” or “Land of the Black slaves” and his "River Niger simply means the River of Niggers or Negroes as you wish to say". I mean, is everyone simple like him thinking he can just fill other peoples heads with simpleness!

Negro, and it's variants neger and negar derive from various Mediterranean language words for "black", including the Spanish and Portuguese word negro (black) and the now-pejorative French nègre. Etymologically, negro, noir, nègre, and nigger ultimately derive from nigrum, the stem of the Latin niger (black) (pronounced [ˈniɡer] which, in every other grammatical case, grammatical gender, and grammatical number besides nominative masculine singular, is nigr- followed by a case ending, the r is trilled). In its original English-language usage, nigger (then spelled niger) was a word for a dark-skinned individual. The earliest known published use of the term dates from 1574, in a work alluding to "the Nigers of Aethiop, bearing witnes". According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the first derogatory usage of the term nigger was recorded two centuries later, in 1775. Just you imagine what he'd say if we had been Niggeria!

Which leaves his "black slaves".

Well, I'm definitely black. And to be honest with you, if you want a donkey of a human being, strong as an ox, can work from dusk till dawn on little resource producing wealth when well managed but pretty clueless on my own, its me.

I mean, go take a look in the Land of the Free and the Brave and you'd see what the sweat of my brow and the blood of my veins and my whole entire being when managed well built, and I talk Kunta Kinte managed, whip, chains, rape and all, to get that donkeyness in me to be resourceful! I guess you can't do that no more seeing as its 2019 and not 1700, and to be honest, the closest you get these days is paying me a decent wage for my donkeyness because, it's just about the best donkeyness in the entire world, and I've since evolved and don't work farm no more but digitally, disciplined and for myself.

Let in be known that I, buda is a black slave from the area that the Niger flows through. A very proud arrogant Nigerian. After all, its not like anyone but myself chain me!

Slavery is not my shame. It's those who enslaved that should be ashamed of themselves!

It is hard for any preacher not to have preached prosperity gospel. Prosperity isn't all about financial blessing. From that scripture I used 3rd John 2, your soul can prosper, your health can prosper. Even you ways can be prosperous going by Joshua 1:18. ..."for then thou shall make thy way prosperous"

That has not stopped others from passing the one way. Immediately taskforce left, the drivers are taking the one way. Task force need to be permanent there.
Some Nigerians who live around there should be taking photo registration and be sending it everywhere. 5 people hour a day or has Nairaland not got responsible people in Iyanapaja. Inflate the price and bill Lagos State Environmental and Special Offences Unit (Task Force)! After we all yell at the Governor, I'm sure he will pay up. And when people know somebody watching them you'd be surprised they start to behave.

One of the major tenets of Christianity is the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ.

1 Cor 15:14, the apostle Paul says: “if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.”
Are you saying Paul wrote that a tenet of Christianity is the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ? I doubt you are saying the Body of Christ is physically somewhere today 2000 years later. And I doubt Corinthians is that simple, Paul definitely wasn't. Can you explain what Paul's point was in 1 Cor:15?

How you been? I have read so much that I am blind now so be patient please. When I see again I will respond..

A nice read indeed. There are some similarities but many foundational differences.

Please uncle budatuum, I will like to know how you managed to download this PDF copy, because I was unable to do same using my favourite; Google and all the sites that pop up.

Thanks for sharing once more.

God bless.
You want to know how lol! Well, let me oblige you.

I too used only google search, title+author+epub and dug through the popups. That's the work. If you don't seek you won't be finding anything, but you still provided the impetus for it when you said "Let there be", and tools, and voila, so you, uncle.

I read, "store your wealth where the moths can't eat it" and think, in my head. Nothing can get at it there except death. So I chew paper. Stuffed my head full of it so I know where to look I think.

You are aware your question, CaveAdullam, is, "how are you buda?" Lol.

Behold the Sign
Ancient Symbolism by Ralph M. Lewis

What were the Sacred Traditions said to have been revealed to Moses—and never spoken by the ancient Hebrews? What were the forces of nature discovered by the Egyptian priesthood and embodied in strange symbols—symbols which became the ever-living knowledge which built King Solomon's Temple, and which found their way into the secret teachings of every century?

Regardless of the changing consciousness of man, certain signs and devices have immortalized for all ages the truths which make men free. Learn the meaning of the Anchor and Ark, the Seven-Pointed Star, ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, and many other age-old secret symbols.

Here is a book that also explains the origin of the various forms of the cross, the meanings of which are often misunderstood. It further points out the mystical beginnings of the secret signs used by many fraternal orders today. This book of symbolism is fully illustrated, simply and interestingly written.

Family › Re: 10 Painfully Obvious Truths Everyone Forgets Too Soon by budaatum: 7:48pm On Jul 26, 2019
yuzjet:
Lol. I still read it once in a while too. Don't want to forget the lessons.
yuzjet:
“The truth does not cease to exist when it is ignored.”. You know how you can hear something a hundred times in a hundred different ways before it finally gets through
to you? The ten truths listed below fall firmly into that category – life lessons that many of us likely learned years ago, and have been reminded of ever since, but for whatever reason, haven’t fully grasped.

This, my friends, is my attempt at helping all of us, myself included, “get it” and “remember it” once and for all…

1. THE AVERAGE HUMAN LIFE IS RELATIVELY SHORT.
We know deep down that life is short, and that death will happen to all of us eventually, and yet we are infinitely surprised when it happens to someone we know. It’s like walking up a flight of stairs with a distracted mind, and misjudging the final step. You
expected there to be one more stair than there is, and so you find yourself off balance for a moment, before your mind shifts back to the present moment and how the world really is.

LIVE your life TODAY! Don’t ignore death, but don’t be afraid of it either. Be afraid of a life you never lived because you were too afraid to take action. Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside you while you’re still alive. Be bold. Be
courageous. Be scared to death, and then take the next step anyway.

2. YOU WILL ONLY EVER LIVE THE LIFE YOU CREATE FOR YOURSELF.
Your life is yours alone. Others can try to persuade you, but they can’t decide for you. They can walk with you, but not in your shoes. So make sure the path you decide to walk aligns with your own intuition and
desires, and don’t be scared to switch paths or pave a new one when it makes sense.
Remember, it’s always better to be at the bottom of the ladder you want to climb than the top of the one you don’t. Be productive and patient. And realize that patience is not about waiting, but the ability to keep a
good attitude while working hard for what you believe in. This is your life, and it is made up entirely of your choices. May your actions speak louder than your words. May your life preach louder than your lips. May your success be your noise in the end. And if life only teaches you one thing, let it be that
taking a passionate leap is always worth it. Even if you have no idea where you’re going to land, be brave enough to step up to the edge of the unknown, and listen to your heart.

She was never nominated for a Nobel Prize.

And no, she is not the Marie Curie of her own time. She is not even a George Elliot or a Jane Austen.
In my own subjective opinion (so), two Nobels by the time she's done. I am so proud to be from the same nation as her and pray to be ⅛ her when I grow up. Purple Hibiscus is my favorite, its power is immense, and her Half Yellow Sun weaved things together again to Achebe's most profound but rather misfortunately titled, rip it all apart. Funny, they lived in the same building.

Anybody that has not read Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's first two books is from Togo or the little town between Niger and Chad!

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie AMAKA means CNA is God!

In my own so.

You are very correct, although intelligence and creativity are not as straightforwardly interwoven as you have put it.

Moreover, I have not even remotely implied that Adichie is not intelligent. I only wrote that she is not one of the most intelligent women in the world. She is creative, no doubt, but that is not a proof of an overly intelligent being.

You would be surprised that her IQ is only barely above average. You can't compare her to someone like Marie Curie.
I wonder the tool you measure IQ with. And a bit, Tyson Ali orange apple, don't you think?

I happen to think Adichie is a Marie Curie of her own place and time. She is teaching girls their potential not to rear piglets for a pig who'd get her pregnant and wouldn't even feed it's own piglets which stops her going to school and being a better life for her and her kids. That poor girl could have gone to the moon, twice, or did you think almajeris drop out the sky?

Chie is healing a cancer that's killing our country and she's been nominated for a Nobel too! She got my vote!

Talking about those that ventured out, did you see how sanusi was summarily shot down when he started the advocacy of what must be done to correct the anomaly? He was shot down by those who could be called intellects too. Why?
Ignorance. They benefit from the status quo. Still Sanusi should not allow himself to be shot down, and even if they do he should go down fighting. But I blame myself! If I had supported him he might have been encouraged. If we all support him he definitely will be.

I'm gone to work on it. Increase my own intelligence so I can work with him. As we say where I'm from agbajo ọwọ lo n'gbe ẹru de ori. It's the pulling together of effort that lifts heavy loads. This is sure one heavy load and it weighs us all down, and if not me, who then?

I share your honest feelings & passion my brother. You have said the fundamental truth, but will they (the political leaders) listen?
Wrong question. Whether they listen or not is not up to them, and we don't need their "political leaders" because they are the ones peddling stupid instead. What's up to us is our own competence to make our selves heard and make ourselves the leaders. If our product is beneficial to them they sure will follow.

Know that what I propose is not easy. There's this dude we read about who tried it and was crucified for all his effort. But I guess he was turned into God so it must have been worth it so let me borrow from him if I may.

Ye are gods and all of you are children of the most High. Arise, O Gods and Be 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 ground and inherit all nations and be most blessed.

P.s. I'm not suggesting turning people into Christians as commonly understood, but proposing abc and 1+1=2. Its what they are being deprived of and that makes them go rankadede instead which they wouldn't if they can read and add.
