“I feel like it’s crazy, imagine working all your life just to pay bills. It’s just that there is peace in the country.

Why imagine such nonsense when you can work to pay school fees instead and in a few years quadruple your earnings? Have you checked how much Nigerians in UK that you think have nothing left over after paying bills, sent home to their families in Nigeria just last year?

Stupid people invest in bills (which really is mostly the useless stuff they put in their mouth), while smart people invest in feeding their brains and mind instead so they can reduce their working hours and enjoy their life more.

I mistakenly mistook this for University of Birmingham or Birmingham City University, but thought to myself, Oyinbo kids would not ever accept this nonsense.

I do not know of a Birmingham University where this sort of nonsense is the norm. I wonder if they meant Bingham University.

....but the money is important because u did ur job and u need to pay ur workers balance, or you can just go upstairs and see what he wants to do or say, sebi he cannot rape you, she then ask me sey, sey make she go, I said u can and I repeat as long as he cannot rape you.

The above was you telling your girlfriend to go and sleep with a guy for money.

And below is you creating smells in your head that she did what you told her to do.

iruka112:
Before bed time na him I sey make we knack oo, toto wey I dun knack uncountable times wey for once I never smelled any fish smell b4, omo I smell am that night oo, but I didn't accuse her of anything,

Now, you clearly have evidence she didn't do what you told her to do, which clearly would have distressed you, so you can keep confusing yourself and ruin a beautiful relationship or fix your confused head. Your choice.

P.s. That fish smell? You created it. But I expect you not to ever know or accept you did because you don't seem to know what your mind does behind your back.

P.s.s. And you telling your girlfriend to go to a man's apartments/hotels "as long as he cannot rape you", is rather disturbing. What if he had tried to rape her, do you think she'd have had the physique to stop him?

The concept of Eve saving Adam from naked ignorant slavery is not known and will be difficult for me to gather information on. Even if I'm able to make it, it will generate flurry of negative reactions and oppositions from other viewers.

With this I agree. The "not known" bit, and "negative reactions and oppositions".

Most are convinced the duty given to Adam is the same as that given to the Image of God, and that their rewards are the same, despite them clearly not.

But that's not your sword to fall on, I guess. So please keep doing what you do. It's good.

Her Tory party was in government for 14 years until just last year, why did she not call national enquiry then?

Jacqueline Sweet, a contributor to The Spectator, began investigating the claims in late December. In her work, Jacqueline reviewed a lot of publicly available information: YouTube videos published by the Fijian government; company press releases; previous X posts; audio from Twitter/X Spaces; business filings and social media account posts. This evidence all pointed to disproving the rumor: rather than a pseudonym for Elon Musk, Dittmann was a real person, a German who went by the name his account bears who lives and works in Fiji. Her work was thorough and methodical — and she sought comment from Dittmann and a number of people who know him prior to publication.

Actually, you are an irrelevant person.

Please drop a comment on ways you think we can improve our quality so we get bring you better stories.

Just the subtitles. They seem clipped at the bottom of my phone's screen but I don't know if it's my fault.

This is stretching, but since you asked, I wouldn't mind you showing how (or if) Eve saved Adam from naked ignorant slavery.

Okay. All men cheat. Women dont cheat

Seriously?! This is just lazy.

omooyo21:
If it’s not 90%, then it’s 100%. Cuz every man I know has his wife as next of kin. It’s not until I send you a DOI link to one research paper that documented this. Im sure you’ll agree with me that more men will rather have their wife as next of kin and women will rather not have their husbands as next of kin.. why’s this so? This is the question.

As it is, you've set up straw and are asking people to believe you. And you'd likely find many who will, but I do not agree with what people claim without seeing evidence.

If you tell buda there is God O, buda will ask you where, and show me.

Thank you for this. I liked and subbed and will go watch some more. And might not use Brave to avoid adverts so my watching is monetized for you.

omooyo21:
90% of married men have their wives as next of kin. Women don’t. It’s common in our workplace to see married women have their own sisters or siblings as next of kin, but never their husbands. Why’s this so?

Sorry but I refuse to accept the anecdotal evidence of your workplace, which I suspect you made up, since there is no way you asked all the married women in your workplace whom their next of kin is, nor I bet do you work in HR and therefore have access to that information.

Evidence for the bold please!

Britain will also come around one day, hopefully soon.

And vote that bigot Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon as prime minister?

You must think we Brits are stupid like some Americans or you intend to hold your breath until you expire.

advanceDNA:
Wait fess.....so if u are not married and u are asked to pay bride price or dowry o getting married ...u won't pay because u think it's devilish culture??

He won't pay because he understands it as taking the mother into his bed and sleeping with her first before marrying the daughter as wife 2.

Thats a banana peel you slipped on there.
Isaiah 28:9 that you latched on, contextually speaking, actually isnt talking of doctrine. That particular bible translation fell short in interpreting correctly the original word

The beauty of the text is clear in any version. Two separate questions are asked:

Whom shall he teach knowledge?

Whom shall he make to understand doctrine?

Neither actually implies the teaching of belief nor doctrine per se, but knowledge (what I'd call the inverse of belief), and the understanding of doctrine (and what is believed).

And those it shall be 'teached' to are:

them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.

The words "wean" and "drawn", both imply those who have matured enough not to need being fed beliefs because their mind is developed enough to understand and reason.

Hear Paul saying the exact same thing:

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

When he was a child he was unweaned and breast fed doctrines and beliefs he could not understand, which is likely why he rejected them, but when he matured in his ability to understand, he saw clearly.

Unfortunately, everyone thinks they alone see clearly, but they also think everyone else doesn't see at all. Thankfully, fruits don't lie.

P.s. I am intentionally limiting myself to only parts of your response in order to focus. I do read it all, and may address other parts in other posts at a later time.

NNTR:
"Whom shall he teach knowledge?" and whom shall he make to understand doctrine?

Doctrine,
a belief or set of beliefs held and taught by a Church, political party, or other group.

"We", as in some of us, do not have any interest whatsoever in doctrines and beliefs. We abhor brainwashing in ourselves and others.

Even when we teach the laws of physics, we do not teach them as doctrine to be believed, but as propositions to be tested, understood and utilised or debunked. That, is how learning and understanding occurs, and not just by mere believing doctrines.

[If] you live in UK, you'd see the effect of the above. The British do not believe. They instead test every thing with their own god given senses, while Nigerians believe and test nothing. And the consequence of doing either is very clear to see.

You think I wouldn't advise a blood brother to go and learn a skill if they don't have one?

And next I suppose you'd think I'd feed them instead.
