Nice story but if one fails at all these, what is the worst that could happen to them?

In the end, we overrate ourselves too much. Nobody is worth all the rules. Make them sef adjust to my own way|

A nice read still,OP.
They can or might not have done the work that you might have done, so it is remiss of you to think they are worth what you are worth.

Please do not underrate or belittle yourself by failing like they might.

I love this take because that’s exactly what Jesus presented in his message about people holding hard and fast onto religious traditions.
It frustrates me that many don't see this, but Christ always reminds me to forgive everyone for they know not what they do.

I can't forgive the resident stupid idiot though, for he definitely does know the evil he does, and that is just not forgivable despite the fact my not forgiving him makes it certain that I will indeed burn in the hottest part of hell.

Trust me bemeruca, when I am burning in hell, my only delight and joy is you will be feeling the hell fire more than I would because of your surprise at ending up in hell right there with me, because there is absolutely no way any god would let your evil lying stupid ignorant idiot sort in its peaceful beautiful heaven so you can catch your useless trolling cruise and dabaru the entire heaven as you dabaru here.

I am sure if it was from a certain religion of peace you would have attacked those who exposed it instead and then make excuses for the criminals.

We know you are always fast to defend rapists
As in, if your boys were raped and abused by any religion, I would attack those who abuse them instead of joining you in cutting off their abusing diqs and kicking their asses straight to hell?

Would I also be attacking those who expose the abuse of my own children instead and then make excuses for the criminals too, or is it your opinion that I don't care about your own children's welfare as much as I do care about my own children's because I am a stupid idiot like you are?

Religion is restrictive and has many rules, As people grow and get more enlightened, they realize many of the reasons they were religious can be explained with logic
Religion also thrives when there is a lot of mystery and poverty, the more people have knowledge and grow their resources the less religious they become.
Society has become way more enlightened than it used to be, So it makes less sense for enlightened people to believe in some stories of religion that sounds mythical or not following modern day logic
I do not agree that "Religion is restrictive".

When atheist non-believing me reads about Jesus, I see a person who introduced a religion that tried to free people from those who try to restrict others with religion.

Thing is, religions teach people, and especially the ignorant who indeed do need to be restricted from their base human natures of hatred and ignorance, to use their own minds just as Eve and Jesus Christ did, if we but understood what we read in our religion books and abandon our childish ways and practise what is taught.

In fact, its like communism, and capitalism, and conservatism and liberalism and many other isms. One can focus on there bad aspects and either adopt them as restrictive, or one can note their good bits and use them to create what can best be referred to as the Kingdom of God on earth and in our countries and right here amongst us in this thread.

We are after all, or at least can be, the salt of Nairaland if we tried to let the gods be our guide.

And they should. As a matter of urgency.
The greatest loss of the church are the kids who no one protected and they grew up into scornful adults who don’t believe in the sincerity of the teachings of the church.
I agree. I usually don’t speak on other religions because I’ve never been in one or learned their doctrine. But it doesn’t take a genius to know that if these things are happening in Christianity, there’s no way other religions are exempt. We even see examples in the child marriages muslims perform. But most of them are choosing to remain silent and complicit. Disgusting.
I don't believe in gods. In fact, I don't only not believe, I know gods do not exist and are the amazing creations of human beings. The world would be much worse and full of stupid idiots if there were no churches and mosques and other religious institutions to teach what they teach. I can't after all not see how horrible we would all be if we were not taught to love our neighbours even though we often fail.

For that reason, I'm taking my family to church (of England) tonight as I'm certain to be far too lazy to bother waking us all up to go tomorrow.

Mohammed is a prophet, Buddha is an amazing teacher, and Christ lives only when I don't stupidly crucify him in and with my ignorant heart and soul and mind.

I’m assuming you mean the Catholic priests who have been found to sexually abuse children? ( No innate bias here as I grew up Catholic. Many of my fond childhood memories were made in the church. I was even in juniorate to become a nun at some point in my life. Long story grin.)

To answer your question, I don’t know how many conservatives defend those priests. For those of them who do, shame on them. However, I know a lot of conservatives do defend predatory evangelical pastors. Shame on all of them too.

It grinds my gears when people want to “care about kids” as a front for their agenda instead of truly caring about kids. So many of these churches do not ostracize the ministers found wanting. They hide, cover up, transfer and sometimes outrightly support them.

If only they could be about the life they claim to be about.
The Archbishop of Canterbury recently resigned because he did not take action against a paedophile priest.
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4gvpyzxvjpo

There are those asking for the resignation of the Archbishop of York too.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/dec/22/archbishop-of-york-stephen-cottrell-david-tudor-case.

And the former Canterbury had to resign as a priest.

There will also be [another] review of safeguarding because of the scandals or the Church of England will just become emptier. The recommendations of the review will apply to all religious organisations, including Islam, Hindu etc, and anywhere else of similar child-adult structure.

These particular fuhggots must be castrated. And I mean, their diqs and balls should be cut off without anesthetics, after which I'd want them kept alive in an all male prison for a long while.

Do know however that that is not a punishment for gay people who are not child molesters and or abusers. Basically, not all gays are fuhggots.

FamilyRe: Pastor's Wife Teaches Women How To Check Their Daughters' Virginity by budaatum: 3:50am On Dec 24, 2024
triplechoice:
Sexual abuse is an intentional act ,if not, anyone who inadvertently touches another sensitive body part in a very tight space, an overcrowded elevated, for instance is guilty of sexual abuse.
"Sexual abuse is an intentional act", is like you claiming you raped me only if you intended to rape me, and if you didn't intend to rape me but raped me any way, it is subjective of me to claim you raped me, and if its not in a "very tight space" its not even rape.

I hopefully do not need to say I see it different.

triplechoice:
There's no evidence from her story of sexual abuse. What she described is exactly the same a doctor in any hospital will perform first on any female child to ascertain if she has been sexually abused.
There is a lot of evidence of sexual abuse in her story. She after all narrated that her 6 year old daughter was raped by her own son. And that's apart from her own sexual assault of her daughter.

For your information, sexual abuse and rape can be subjective, and thankfully, it is subject to the abused or raped person, regardless of what the raper or abuser may think or the space in which the person raped or abused. If it wasn't subjective, and if it was down to the abuser or raper, a sexual abused and raped person would not have a valid allegation.

triplechoice:
I accept your psychological abuse, but reject sexual and physical abuse.
There is no requirement for you to accept anything I say, Triple, and neither are you under any obligation to.

Since your subjectivity is equally as valid as my own subjectivity as far as I am concerned, my poison does not have to be your poison.
Christianity EtcRe: God Has Commanded You To Be Fruitful by budaatum: 3:17am On Dec 24, 2024
Educate, if you can please, why after everything that had been created was good, some people then wrote that "The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.

Also, if you can, explain the implication of this further creation.

Thank you in advance.

PoliticsRe: Budget 2025: Balancing Aspirations With Fiscal Realities - Punch Editorial by budaatum: 3:10am On Dec 24, 2024
The budget’s reliance on borrowing raises red flags. At $33.13bn in dollar terms, the 2025 budget is lower than the $38bn 2022 budget, reflecting the naira’s depreciation.

Over 80 per cent of government expenditures are dollar-dependent, exacerbating fiscal pressures. Compared to peers like South Africa ($160bn budget) and Egypt ($110bn), Nigeria’s expenditure remains modest for its 230 million citizens.
I hope no one fails to see that we are much 'richer' and budget much 'more' per person than some countries do.

South Africa population 63 million
Budget $106bn

Egypt population 116 million
Budget $110bn

Nigeria population 236 million
Budget $33.13

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Why Job Interviews Are Pointless? by budaatum: 2:46am On Dec 24, 2024
My sister told me about an interview for a job she had. After she left, she was ashamed at how many times her answers to question included what she had learnt from her mother, and she thought, better luck next time. Then she got home and got a call asking when she could start please.

She was so surprised that she actually asked the employer if they were sure. And the employer was so surprised that she did not know how well she had aced the interview.

My point is, a lot can be told about your psychology and philosophy to work from just your attitude and the choice of words you use to express yourself. And don't forget we already will have your application form that says quite a lot about you.

Christianity EtcRe: Lagos High Court Orders Arrest Of Redeemed Pastor, Deacon Over Land Grabbing by budaatum: 5:45am On Dec 22, 2024
xliente:
Nah, bro. It's the other way round. The Pastor and Deacon dragged the RCCG into this by allegedly grabbing land whilst still being affiliated as reputable figures in the church. RCCG need do It's investigation faster than the courts to prove their innocence or guilt, save the church reputation and dissociate itself from such evil acts and actors. If they weren't title holders in church, no one will overlap their names with RCCG. Moreover, refusing to show up for court summons to prove their innocence against glaring evidence only makes matters worse. Leaders ought to show good examples. Bad leaders show bad examples leading to bad PR publicity whether its church, business or any secular groups. Plus social media had a nasty habit of dragging down big names and so will rather use RCCG's name rather than the names of the culprits to sell the story, as was done in the title of the original post.

Bad maintained kerosene stoves if you asked me, because now you remind me, we did use a kerosene stove at times. Had to burn full blue flame though, as yellow flame, which incidentally is a waste of fuel, is not as hot so wouldn't help get the pressure.

Been using one since mid 70s myself, as grew with ma using one from before I was born. She's what you'd call alaroro.

https://wolfstreet.com/2024/12/19/census-bureau-revises-up-population-growth-8-million-in-3-years-due-to-immigration-total-us-population-340-million/

The U.S. population grew by nearly 1.0% between 2023 and 2024, according to the new Vintage 2024 population estimates released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.

As the nation’s population surpasses 340 million, this is the fastest annual population growth the nation has seen since 2001 — a notable increase from the record low growth rate of 0.2% in 2021. The growth was primarily driven by rising net international migration.

Three states saw their populations decrease slightly between 2023 and 2024: Vermont (-215), Mississippi (-127) and West Virginia (-516), up from two states that lost population between 2022 and 2023.

The losses in Mississippi and Vermont resulted from negative net domestic migration and natural decrease (more deaths than births), and the loss in West Virginia was from natural decrease.
