People are waking up to panic around the western part of the world in countries like USA, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, SWEDEN etc.
I can safely report that your etc does not include UK, where it's just calm and cold. And I have not heard of any related panic in Nigeria or anywhere in Africa.

But if you are divesting yourself of your properties because of the supposed pending rapture, I know some people who will care for it after you are gone, so contact me please.

Don't be funny. You are talking about someone who wants to see it happen within one lifetime.
Well, we can only educate him by placing the available evidence before him. His learning or not is however entirely up to him.

So you mean that this animal in the picture that you are showing me now is a proof that macro evolution happened but the animals that I am seeing today is not a proof that macro evolution is taking place now?
No, I do not mean mean that this animal in the picture that I am showing you now is proof that macro evolution happened. It's not like I am asking you to believe.

I am inviting you to the Natural History Museum so you can walk around the 28 galleries across five floors to see the 80 million specimens so you can learn and decide for yourself if you are convinced of evolution or not. But to be honest, whether you learn or not is no skin off my nose because you are not the only human nor the most important on this earth such that your opinion should matter to me much.

Its funny that he'd think I'd want to replace the Bible with the Quran, lol, which just shows he is religiously biased and lacks objectivity.

I dont think that would help if he doesnt understand that it is observation over millions of years.

Also beware that not even the evidence in your picture is beyond question, in fact some of the skulls there will be an argument against you.
Oh, the Natural History Museum is awesome. They not only describe the millions of years evolution took, they also allow him to see fossils of species million years old and how they relate to what he sees today.

Of course he might choose not to believe his eyes, but the evidence will be before him to see.

"You don't need knowledge and understanding.".
I can only hope that when "the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters", it is understood that God was doing research and acquiring knowledge so he can commence the creating we read he did. And that without knowledge and understanding, even God would not have had the faith that there would be light if he said "let there be light".

is there an example of macro evolution that you've seen in present times?
Yes. Human beings. And since macroevolution takes place over millions of years, your question shows the limits of your learning.

What you doing tomorrow? Would you like to come to the British Museum so we can look at the evidence together?

I thought you were the evolution teacher na....so your pictorial illustrations are actually deceptive?
Teaching does not mean I must open your head and put knowledge in your brain. You still need to use your own senses so you may learn, and I have full faith in your capabilities to not be lazy and put the effort in.

Do let me know how you get on please.

Your pictures on your second link seem to indicate that humans evolve from apes.
That's why you should study much instead of just watching pictures or reading only one book.

Humans did not evolve from the apes alive today; instead, humans and modern apes (like chimpanzees and gorillas) share a common ape-like ancestor that lived millions of years ago.

Just as Ukraine fights for Western civilization, liberalism, and democracy on the eastern frontier of Europe, Israel does in the Middle East.
You see that bit? Its a lie, and makes whatever else is said in this piece not worth considering.

Ukraine was invaded by Russia first in 2014 and again in 2022, while Israel has been stripping Palestinians of their land since before the century before last, so, I guess if you are claiming Israel is like that rogue Putin led land grabbing Russia, I'd have to agree.

As for what the world can do if the will is there, just go read up on what was done for Apartheid South Africa to fall, and you might understand how the people on earth can't remain heartless forever in sight of genocide and oppression.

Indeed some do. I after all know a big boy who landed in UK on Friday, watched ManU v Chelsea live Saturday, and Arsenal v ManC live Sunday, and was back to work in Lagos at 8am this morning.

Don't quite get your point though, as there's lots more small boys than big ones.

Reasonable points. However, I think this is easier said than done. The corrupt officials are already in power and have influence over the very education that is supposed to help further our country. Do you think any significant progress can be made while this people have their hold on the country?
It is not meant to be easy.

You should go read up on the history of revolutions to perhaps understand how much work we need to do and its cost in lives and blood.

It is in fact very hard work that will take us years if not decades to wrest power from those who have their hold on the country. And we will only make progress if we are willing to work very hard and sacrifice.

How do you intend that we put real democracy in our country, then? We certainly cannot just vote for the right person when the corrupt people in government take measures to guide the election to their will.
First we should go learn about democracy, it's history, it's development, and how it ought to be conducted successfully. Then we implement what we learn.

It involves people coming together to organise so corrupt people don't organise better and "take measures to guide the election to their will" and defeat you.

Such education and learning should start in primary schools, where pupils will be taught to work together to accomplish goals, instead of our current education that encourages self salvation and disregard for our neighbours and benefits the corrupt.

I feel you are not taking into consideration the vast extent corruption has already taken root in Nigerian politics. What of gatekeeping, godfatherism and votes buying? We are not even given enough transparency on these candidates to be able to adequately choose a representative. The democracy you are talking about does not exist in our country and I think in order for us to move forward, we must accept that.
You see the bold? It indicates irresponsibility, because you are not supposed to wait to be given, but should get off your ass and go and get. And not understanding this is the reason "democracy you are talking about does not exist in our country". It can not exist until we put it there.

And if we do not put it there, not only will we not move forward, we will move backwards, and by that I mean whatever we claim to suffer today will increase ten fold tomorrow. And when we've suffered enough, our eyes will hopefully open.

Do know that as far as democracy is concerned, we are young learning babies who will learn as we grow older or die in our ignorance and refusal to learn to democratise better, because there isn't a better alternative to rule by the people for the people being ruled.

Delusionarily improving the odds until they don't, lol.

If you are in UK you'd wonder why you never see Nigerian avocado in the market, and this might make one hesitate from investing in avocado in Nigeria.

Do you know why there's no Nigerian avocado (or yam, or plantain, or beans etc) in UK markets?

Will you believe you will survive jumping from the twelfth floor of a building without jumping to test if you will survive?

These sort of questions are what maths and physics will help you answer instead of you mere believing.

I don't understand the need for accountability from the poster. It's after all not her money, so why should he account to her?

Do know that 440k x 12 months x 3 years is 15.8m, which is what he might have if he did not spend any on himself. And since he has 14m in the account you saw, it means he's spent less than 2m in 3 years.

Leave! Just know that you'd be receiving a lot less from him after you are gone, and its those children of yours who will suffer the most!

There was this wealthy man who lived on Osinbajo Close in Obanikoro close to Bola Adewunmi Street where I once lived. People said his wife was in a cupboard, and every time he needed money, he just had to call her name and money fell from her mouth. I asked them how they knew this, if, when he called his wife's name he invited them in to watch, but they told me how ignorant I was and I should shut the fuq up.

What they didn't know was the man who lived on Osinbajo Close was a hard working lawyer who would go on to become the Vice President of Nigeria.

My brother, do you really believe our democracy as it is today means anything in the future of our country? How much does it matter if you are to vote from a number of candidates to rule your country but all of them are either corrupt or unqualified? Where is the dignity in that?
Yes, I do believe democracy means a lot in the future of our country.

We can go out there and vote for corrupt or unqualified people to rule us and make us suffer or we ourselves can learn not to be corrupt and qualify ourselves to rule ourselves better so we suffer less. The choice is ours.

What's beautiful about democracy is you get what you elected, and you learn from your past votes. If you elect corrupt or unqualified people to rule you and you suffer, you can either elect better people next time or not until you suffer enough and learn.

Not every Nigerian is corrupt or unqualified. And the sooner we learn to tell the difference the better.

Really? I guess this describes your own attitude.

There are indeed many who would prefer being naked ignorant slaves in Eden, while some would rather acquire knowledge and understanding and rule and subdue and multiply and be blessed.

Someone needs to explain to you what democracy means and implies and compels you to do, so you might stop behaving like our current government came from Mars and imposed itself on you.

Once you [we] know what democracy is, then perhaps you and more of us will be more concerned and diligently scrutinise those we elect to govern us.
