We delight that evil dies where angels thread.

Acidosis:
I don't see a problem with the above list.

RENT - 8000 monthly for 2 shops is very very cheap. Outskirt of Lagos, perhaps? Or main markets?

NEPA Bill - Yea, I think the bill is outrageous, but N2000 monthly for 2 shops? That's cheap, ma.

LAWMA - N300 monthly? So o?! You want to pay N30??

SHOP PERMIT - A form of taxation? N400 monthly? Not bad

SECURITY - You mean Vigilante levy? Angels can't protect the total number of shops in Lagos.

RECONNECTION - That happens when people fail to pay their bills on time. Be thankful you run on estimated billing. You can't share prepaid metre in peace with other shop owners.

You know why I cancelled transport and feeding, right?
Well, from what you've posted, your monthly operating expense for 1 shop is less than N10,000, rent inclusive. This is a very good deal if you ask me. I guess you just did not do a proper feasibility study.

We need a thread perhaps. Advice for shopholders.

By the labor of hands are great paths cut in forests.

This is disgusting. A small minority terrorising people. Changing though. I think the match was the Womens FIFA World Cup. That's a huge step forward.

Go back and see the trail of your loquacious exploits!
Way back ke.....
Didn't you cc that same person just like everyone else initially?
Must you keep forcing someone to show up in your thread when the person doesn't want to?

Anwons:
Really? Wow! I didn't go to worship a pastor, besides, I haven't started worship there yet, but on course of familiarising ourselves and I got to observe this.

Good. Your eyes are open. You see.
Told you I had faith.

Where for Christ sakes are people getting this stupid ideology that government must rain down manna from heaven? I'm not having this crap. This is 4+4! The lazy must starve, there's too many fuqs. Then the powerful survivors will use your dead bones to build a glorious future!

Sai bubu is not responsible for your daily bread go and find something to do you lazy fuqs! Next level!

Anwons:
I have an issue which I had taken decision too but I don't know how I should end it with him.

I went and he told me that God wants me to work with him as an assistant Pastor.

You fell for one of the temptations. He massaged your ego and you allowed satan to get between you and God and went and worshipped your pastor.

I think you know what to do. I have faith you do.

SoNature:
A country with a major issue of corruption ought to more transparent in its dealings...

Funny. Doesn't corruption mean exactly "a lack of transparency"? Lol.

I'd be dead. Ready for what?

johnydon22:
Therefore, that something doesn't appeal to human perception doesn't conclusively validate its inexistence.

But then, it doesn't validate its existence either.

Agree. The mind is not the determinant of existence.

johnydon22:
Materialism appeals to the sense, belief in the immaterial asserts a transcendent knowledge that cannot be known.

No! In China we say "a person in a pit cannot see as the person on a hill". If a thing transcends one's senses it may still exist. You say so above.

Ideas in one's mind are immaterial and they are not necessarily beliefs and can be knowledge, ways of understanding or looking at things. To a person without that sort of mind those things might not exist but one wouldn't argue that they do not exist in the minds of who they do.

johnydon22:
Example: If someone asserts that the immaterial exists, they got to know this somehow, and if they got to know this in an objective sense, then it means that it can be reduced to the senses and immaterial by definition cannot be reduced this the senses, therefore, it is material.

How does one know something by "objective sense"?
Do you mean I touch it and can kick it so I know? So what about the million plus other things that one knows by ones "subjective sense", say a simple thing like being decent to others, do those things not exist because somehow they lack physical material?

Immaterial they may be but to the sense that is ready to receive that seek, as religious people would say, shall be given 'it'.

johnydon22:
This is a looped contradiction.

Ya don say Doc it's a good one though.

johnydon22:
But, if one asserts the existence of the immaterial which doesn't appeal or can be reduced to the senses in actuality, then that begs the question - How in God's good earth did you get to know about it in the first place?

By diligently seeking for it every minute and everyday what does it mean what does it imply what does it do how does it effect how does it work why does it work where does one get it how does one use it when does one use it and for Christ sake, what the fuq is it!?

That's how. And you won't know you found 'it' until you find 'it', as muttley might say.

johnydon22:
So, this is a question to everyone who believes in the existence of the immaterial: How did you conclusively determine that it exists?

No! I object to your derogatory, "who believes"! My mind is immaterial, evolution is immaterial, and I don't believe they exist because I know they exist!

I conclusively determined 'it' exists when I found it.

johnydon22:
Because you can't conclusively assert that something exists without having a way by which this knowledge is available to you.

The knowledge was not available to me! I had to go looking for it as stated above. It was after a lot of seeking that I got to the point that I could conclusively assert that something, which up to now you've very carefully been referring to as 'it', exists.

johnydon22:
My other thread deals with illogicality of the materialism, this probes the certainty of the knowledge in the immaterial and holds a position that it is a logical absurdity.

Psychological phenomemons are physical, you can pin point particular behaviors of matter causing this or that.

Or even emotions, you can pin point chemical/hormones responsible and how our brain serve as a CPU to reduce these phenomenon to our perception.

Much like light, the sun is matter but the light it provides behaves totally different - But both are physical, measurable, can be reduced to human perception.

Immaterial in the sense deals with things transcendent to our immediate universe - much like spiritual realm, multiverses or transcendental beings.

Things that can be conceptually defined as distinct entities or existential states.

I fear this is way beyond my level. My mind is composed of numerous immaterial things and even the idea that I have a mind is an "immaterial illogicallity of the materialism". But I think you're not asking about what might be in my own mind but about what might be in someone elses mind, and "bring it out and show you. Or it doesn't exist?

If you're right, then things like evolution can't exist or couldn't have happened because I'd struggle to provide evidence for it and its not in everyone's mind yet doth my mind constantly evolve as evidenced by wit were laid in front of eyes that hardly could conceive.

Basically, show blind people what one sees, is what you're saying. So I laugh. I'll go over your op sub though.

johnydon22:
Spiritual, Intangible, transcendent - Unable to exist physically (At least outside human perception or immediate material universe)

Sounds to me like we are going back to your other thread.

Reason I ask is, could I include the psychological and the mental that don't physically exist though they may impact as angels and demons which I can't physically present? I can't physically present love or sadness either but I doubt we'd say emotions don't exist.

EmperorHarry:
I can only refer you to comprehensive links and research articles that portray evolution in it's simple forms.Unlike some folks at quora and reddit who are more knowledgeable(by experience in the field and years of research) and are willing to provide a compendious answer to every question and misconceptions you have about the subject,I am only limited to my subjective research (which has changed my perspective and enlightened me remarkably on the subject) and I don't have the mental strength nor fervor to have a long ass discussion in a bid to shed more light on evolutuon.You can learn more by reading through the answers and convos that can be found on the sites including debate.com and medium etc to subjectively understand evolution so you know where the gaps and holes are and how sceptical you should be about them.
The evolution theory becomes complicated when it is adapted to try to explain philosophical questions in a bid to provide a natural and materialistic explanation for everything.This leaves us with more questions than answers with a underwhelming amount of evidence to back up hypotheses postulated.Evolution independent of this as regards to the observation initially documented by Jean Baptiste Lamarck and modified by Darwin is a very plausible theory that is supported by adaptation.It has been promoted from an hypothesis to a scientific theory after billions of dollars and years of research from different scientists in various fields and there is a consensus that it's as valid as the earth is spherical(This doesn't mean it isn't liable to change and can be demoted to a hypothesis in light of new indisputable evidences).
That's just the fun thing about science independent of personal interests and influence.It doesn't have all the answers and a true scientist wouldn't claim to know it all.As vaxx said,science is a work in progress with more questions than answers.
At this point you must prolly be thinking,all this words and yet no answer to your simple question.I admit I'm not even attempting to provide evidences as regards your question but if you find anybody that does,try to be open-minded.I'm only writing this so as to nudge you to find out more about evolution indepthly for yourself before you disapprove of it cos I've been there before.

This is just my opinion and I would entertain any objections and corrections.

As in "if you seek, you will understand" TV01. I must say, it is your religious mind that gets in the way, but first.

I, buda, doff my entire head to my Emperor who reigns!

Now, TV01. We've been crossing paths, but we never spoke. There is one God only. Greetings.

The Religious Mind

The religious mind splits things into either this or that, so its either true or false or its either good or bad or its either right or wrong or its either me or them or its either friend or enemy or its either christian or muslim or atheist or heaven or hell or yoruba igbo hausa fulani devil God, the list goes on, right there from the beginning, the this or the that, forever and ever, getting in the way of actually seeking, as it does.

To the sort of mind in which, the attitude of mine or there's, has been cultivated, the hells the devils, and the thems those others, hardly get much consideration, because, rather than researching those other things, the religious mind assumes a position of knowing about them already even though it knows it doesn't know because it knows how little it has read or researched those irrelevant, so to say, other things, which are hardly worth its time and which it believes will lead it to hell.

The religious mind literally adopts the well taught conundrum presented in the garden at the beginning that goes, "Don't seek knowledge or you will die", which, if taken literally, is literally true, or is it not a conundrum that if one seeks not one shall surely die? Yet the religious mind already knows and indeed you do, so why seek answers to questions you already know the answers to?

Yet, "seek", is what my Emperor is saying to you above. I wonder who else said that and what was meant that one must seek, and if there was a reward to that seeking or to the dying if that be the case.

My Emperor, with this post you reign and buda bows!

There are loads of definitions of "immaterial". Could you pin us down by giving an idea which you mean please.

It's your topic that got me. "No Australian Should Be Fired For Practicing Their Religion", which is very true, but practise his religion does not include condemning others. In fact, "practise his religion" would be showing compassion, but he obviously did not read that part in his Bible so he's sacked and now has all the time in the world to "practise his religion" however he wants without anyone sacking him.

I really can't see why he's suing. Does he want others to pay him to "practise his religion"?

Blissb, this is serious, and I know you see the danger, hence your cry for help here, but this is way more serious than you appear to be taking it! You are dealing with an insanely sick person and it's bastards like this who throw acid in the face of people they can't have. You fine but you will fine a lot less with acid mascara!

You need to gather evidence on him. Name, Time of calls, every contact he makes, record it. Also help waste his money. Whenever he calls take it and place him on mute so his money runs but he can't hear you or you him. Go to police immediately please, and tell them he threatened to rape and pour acid on you then kill you! And bravo for yelling out here. That is brave! Tell everyone in the neighbourhood too. Point to him and say loudly, "that man is following me everywhere I go!" And take his photos too!

Don't joke with this! There's lots of people who have been stalked to death already and you must not join them!

flames01:
And probably less deeper than the one thief tinubu, your beloved thief, runs Lagos finances into.

It's clear that you aren't against corruption. You are only against corruption when perpetrated by people you don't want, but you welcome corruption with both hands when perpetrated by your preferred, beloved thieves.


Yes, you are a shameless hypocrite

The way these things work is if we don't catch your fingers in the cookie jar or see the crumbs on their fingers or around their mouth dem never thief. Take my very own Ogbebi O Steal Aregbe of Osun State. He stole my state money finish then he comes to my Alimosho and wants to rule me there! Tufiaka mba over my dead body. Now see him fludering in the wilderness of nowhere! Im praying hard that he does not get minister and that he gets implicated in the new efcc legislator probe. I can be patient. Time, is on my side. One by one they will fall if they stole our money including my bubu if he too steals or they just all will die when their time is up. And it will be your turn.

Fact remains, this is now, and less of my country's money is going missing than almost any government ever probably, barring evidence to the contrary, so I'm sai bubu next level.

Had to dig out my Take Everything card!

Yep. I praise.

So aregbe has become an ex lawmaker...

Whatever he has become he has no immunity. I'd even settle for just exposing him. He seriously oppressed Osun State and I'd love to see where he spent the money despite vast improvement to the capital.

The guy was even born in Britain. What does he need the passport for abeg?

It's cheaper and convenient than getting a visa every time they come home.

Laudable as this initiative is, we call for their activities to be open to public scrutiny due to the endemic and cancerous scale of corruption in this country. Nigeria is fantastically corrupt and this may only serve as opportunity for members of these bodies to grab their own loot share! Trust no agency!
The activities and interim reports must remain within public domain. Contacts for whistle blowing must be conspicuous. No one should toy with our intelligence anymore!

We must stare our eyes on them too and not just expect them to be honest about it. We cannot trust them!
