And after reading George Orwell's Animal Farm, also read his 1984 (or, Big Brother, as I call it), to gain further understanding.

You've been having sleepless night, so you contacted the National Orientation Agency using the address on the appointment letter you received to enquire what to do next so you could have sleepy nights?

In fact, did the appointment letter not tell you what the next step was?

The bible has no notable and significant record or Mary (mother Jesus) background and parents.

Mary was not extensively discussed in the bible. She and Joseph were more relevant in the pre-birth of Jesus

Show us if you think otherwise and please quote the bible references to buttress your points.
This is what happens when you read only one book instead of every word that proceeds from God's mouth so to speak.

When Mary was three years old, Joachim and Anne, her parents, in fulfillment of her divine promise, brought Mary to the Temple of Jerusalem, where they left her to be brought up, which is like putting her in boarding school to learn.

So because I used the word Nazi, you decided to speak on behalf of all Jews? Nazis are all about Jews in your brain? grin
I've been noticing this ignorance all over the place and makes me want to scream.

But I'm not fooled we don't want to make America white, and not again, because America has never ever been white.

....the Nazis targeted for discrimination and persecution, anyone they believed threatened their ideal of a ‘pure Aryan race’.

Nazi beliefs categorised people by race, and Hitler used the word ‘Aryan’ for his idea of a ‘pure German race’. The Nazis believed Aryan people were superior to all others. Their devotion to what they believed was racial purity and their opposition to racial mixing partly explains their hatred towards Jews, Roma and Sinti people and black people. Slavic people, such as those from Poland and Russia, were considered inferior and were targeted because they lived in areas needed for German expansion.

The Nazis wanted to ‘improve’ the genetic make-up of the population and so persecuted people they deemed to be disabled, either mentally or physically, as well as gay people. Political opponents, primarily communists, trade unionists and social democrats, as well as those whose religious beliefs conflicted with Nazi ideology, such as Jehovah’s Witnesses, were also targeted for persecution.

Hundreds of thousands of lives were destroyed because of Nazi persecution of other groups, and many groups did not receive acknowledgement of their suffering until years after 1945.

I kinda assume it ought to be common sense like making sure to invest only when you are sure of returns and whatnot. undecided
This "common sense" thing always causes issues between you and I, and we quarrel over it.

Sense that is common is nonsense in my own book, and that's why its common and most have it.

Superior sense, which is what I am seeing you are describing people should have before marrying, is not common, and requires effort to acquire, which is why most don't have it and therefore don't do the things you are describing they should do before marrying, and why their marriages often fail.

Your posts are not based on common sense, kobo. You have, in my opinion, done the work to have superior sense to that which the common people have.

Do note your use of the phrase "common sense" is as is accepted it is. I just have a different definition, so the fault for our disagreeing is entirely mine.

Sounds like you want to marry an ashewo, so your money for table, her back for ground.

You do know some women work and help with the bills, right? And some even pay all the bills while the man sits on his ass.

Is it ok for him not to get and sex therefore?

I think you are asking that people be hyper intelligent before entering marriage.

Should stupid ignorant people not marry?

What about dishonest people? After all, this man was likely not "prioritizing his career over family life and been bad-tempered and insulting" before they married.

Any man that lives in that room should put his dick inside freezer for now and continue hustling until heaven smiles on him. I'm not dictating for him, it's just common sense. If he is married and they insist on having children, they should move to Cameroun. We have enough poor out-of-school children already, we don't need more kidnappers and more armed robbers, and most especially, more vote sellers.
I think you mean an ambitious man, "should put his dick inside freezer for now and continue hustling until heaven smiles on him".

And what if heaven never smiles on the man. Should he never marry?

First of all, NEITHER the judgement nor my opinion is on the issue of RAPE.

The judgement goes to the matter of "NO-FAULT DIVORCE".

In a No-Fault Divorce, the LESS financially-bouyant spouse (usually the woman) is ENTITLED to benefits like alimony and HALF the Marital (aka the man's) assets.

The point of securing the a divorce judgement where the court acknowledged that the woman was at FAULT is to prevent her from DENYING him sex and still TAKING his money and property.

NOBODY is advocating for rape!
NOT me!

And NOT the French courts that made the initial judgement that the woman was at FAULT so she had to run to a European Court of Human Rights to secure this SHADY judgement.

NO court in the WHOLE of France would grant her a NO-FAULT divorce.
That's why she ran to the ECHR.

NO-FAULT Divorce = MO' money.
FAULT Divorce = NO money.

That's what the case is about.
It is your response that made the provision of sex sound mandatory that made me bring up marital rape.

The fault determines the payout, and the woman being at fault means she gets paid less, which is what the appeal court overturned in this case.

Is it your opinion that she deserves less or nothing because she denied himsex, even though he would have deprived her by "prioritizing his career over family life and been bad-tempered and insulting"?

Should I let him fuq me because he is my husband, even though he is bad-tempered towards me and insulting?

Sex is one of the CARDINAL component of any marriage.

When you marry someone, it means you expect to fuccck them and ONLY them for the rest of your life.

That means you are committing to get your SUPPLY of sex from only ONE source for the foreseeable future.

If your spouse SUDDENLY cuts off your supply of sex, they are ABUSING you.
And do you think that should give you the right to force open the supply and take all the sex you want?

If so, what's your opinion of spousal rape?

Na the same different goals keep us in the mess we are in this country now. The couple in that room will breed like rabbits because sex is all most poor people think about and tomorrow, their children will grow poor to the age of 18 and then sell their votes to bring in another Buhari as president. At that time, their 'different goal' which you think is personal will become a public problem.
But come on!

Would you like me to dictate what other people do? Like my preference of everyone going for a marriage competency test to get a license to marry, and a child bearing licence to fuq, and read the Bible and Quran to graduate from secondary school, and learn science till first degree to mention just a few?

I personally wouldn't mind imposing my own goals on people, but I doubt you'd like it.

So who should be blamed for refusing to have sex with her husband..?? The state?? Her husband??
That's an odd rephrase of the question.

If I don't want to have sex with you my husband, indeed "blame" me. I am after all responsible for my choice not to have sex with you, though on deeper investigation it might be because you are actually lousy at sex or I just don't love you no more.

But the question here is, is it my duty to let you fuq me because we are married even if I don't want you to?

The right question should be, how can a man stay in this room and think of marriage? He must be smoking more than my monkey does.
Different different peoples na im de.

"Different people have different goals" means that each individual has their own unique aspirations, desires, and objectives in life, which can vary greatly depending on their personal circumstances, values, and life experiences; essentially, what one person wants to achieve might be completely different from what another person wants to accomplish."

“I do not think that N1,500/$ is the fair value of the naira. I think the naira is undervalued,”
Unfortunately, thinking does not determine fair value. The market determines it, and have said about ₦1,500/$ is fair value.

As for high interest rates creating inflation, that's a chicken and egg thing, as it could equally be said that high inflation creates a need for high interest rates, as money depreciates fast otherwise and would cause capital flight instead of inflows.

A Republican Congressman has proposed third term bill for Donald Trump to run for third term. Just few days in office after his reelection for second term. His party mates are now seeing him as someone they want to enjoy for the next 8 years.

A resolution was introduced in Congress to amend the US Constitution to allow President Donald Trump to be elected for a third term, reported news agency PTI.
Republican lawmaker Andy Ogles introduced the House Joint Resolution saying, "This amendment would allow President Trump to serve three terms, ensuring that we can sustain the bold leadership our nation so desperately needs."

Foreign Affairs › Re: Trump Urges Opec To Slash Oil Prices by budaatum: 7:11pm On Jan 24, 2025
Owologbo:
Do Nigeria have a say?
Nigeria sells at whatever price OPEC mandated them to sell.
Somehow, we might have a say.

We can sell at a discount to Opec for instance, if no one is buying from us, or at a premium if everyone wants to buy from us. Our Bonny Light is after all a high-grade crude oil known for its low sulfur content, which makes it less corrosive to refinery equipment and has a lower environmental impact, and is in high demand by refiners in Europe and America.

We might even sell more than our allocation, though we actually sell less than allocated due to our inefficiency, which oddly adds a premium to what we do sell.

We'd have a bigger say if we got our act together and produce our OPEC allocation, and a much huger say if we refined it ourselves instead of selling crude.

And on that last note, let me annoy some people so I'm insulted. Dangote is the new God. He said, "let there be local produced petrol", and there is local produced petrol, and I can't wait for him to say, let there be uninterrupted light.
