I did not highlight my point from Chinua Achebe....
It's a pity that Prof Achebe refused to write about our origin... even though he knows how useful it was...
I guess some people instructed him not to...so that it will not affect the so called Nri theory..

Achebe made it clear he was writing FICTION. He never claimed to be an expert of Igbo history. Unlike you - without one shred of evidence!

RIP

How was he pulling my leg?

Antichristian is Muslim and nearly everyone one this board knows this to be true. You need to go through is profile to confirm

Now I think about it u may have a point. Just that he seemed aiming for sarcasm here:

dynicks:
This thread should finally be closed for I have ended it with this wonderful delicacy to be served to LALASTICALA!!...

The initiator....., what's the grand prize!!..?

This is the last post unless enemies of progress sabotage it

Andy Uba is a total crook and has always been.

triplechoice:
Not true.

He is not an atheist but a Muslim

True. Either way, he was pulling your leg

kingthreat:
Must you screenshot the whole post to prove a point? Are we primary school pupils here?

It is Sunday and I have time on my hands. Is that an ok answer?
But see how complicated that cult is. The energy these people put into these things, if they put it in the right things, they’d all be rich!

triplechoice:
When you don't know what you're advising on?

He’s a well-known moslem being sarcastic. He was pulling your leg

Sennex57:
Did I say you should stop exposing ?

Oh u r not the guy killed, I just checked. U r the guy satanist accused of leading him to his death.
The guy’s name is Ghirho98.
See his posts below

daddytime:
Hmmm

Emotions don't cut it with the whites.

When a policy is set by a government or regime of the day, it is followed to the letter by all enforcing agents.

A new government might come up tomorrow and decide that her policy is to pardon all hitherto aliens and even grant Jibrin the Spanish nationality plus a national honour.

This is how they run their system.

Works exactly same way in Nigeria, especially the part about a new govt.

Flumi Society Aka The Bush men

As Ban have Deck. Ayes have Temples Eiye have nests. Flumi have Bushes.

Their initiation composes of you taking hallucinations and drinking the Zobo which is their traditional drink. whilst dancing around a tree called their Samantha each bush has a Samantha tree that is known by 2 private names.

The chief Zsombi and the Village head is the two people that will tell you the 2 name of your Samantha so when you bump into any member of your bush or any member of Flumi society and they ask you for the name of your Samantha if they are in the same bush as you they’ll let you pass if you get it right if they’re not in your bush then they’ll call up members of the bush you are claiming to be part of to verify if that’s the bushes Samantha’s name if it’s not then…. You could be looking at death.


After Dancing around the tree then you dance around the bonfire after that you will be asked 12 riddles and 12 different question before 4 people in masks (African masks)

The 4 people are the
Chief zsombi
Drunken Bard
Taxman
And a High Seer that is the second in command of the Seers but under the Druid.

The person asking you the 24 questions is the Druid who is the advisor to the bush.


Flumi Society's Creed
Aka
“The Dead mans Taboo”
(Little song you sing when being sworn in)

If I had a heart I could love you
If I had a voice I would sing
After the night when I wake up
I'll see what tomorrow brings
—————————————————————-
The Dead mans Taboo is called this because it’s is an Abomination to sings this outside the bush or in public because it’s sin in the Flumi society to show that you belong.

The dead man taboo was also taken from the song “Fever ray - if I had” which was one of the theme song for “Vikings” which Credits to the inspiration of Flumi society.


How to identify a member :

Afros with one braid in the front of their hair with ONE SINGLE BEAD ON THE END (watch out for black/red/purple/green)


Any like cave man tattoos on their body like deers or stickmen with spears hunting

They don’t shout usually don’t shout out anything all though some That belong tend to shout “Way walkers” which is more of a war cry

What they do is the put the tongue in front of the tooth and suck making a chirping sound which is caused a “Locust call” which is replied by looking at the person making the call and putting 3 fingers on your lips called “Blue mouthing”.

(It is recommended to not blue mouth to a locust call of a member you don’t know)

Aren’t you the guy they say was killed for exposing their secrets?

chieveboy:
Deal with whatever I have told you earlier. Nothing more are you getting. I have been Christian for several incarnations including this one that I find your hide-and-seek and denials that Christianity was not formed a folly to be ignored.
Cheers!

You have never really been Christian if you think it’s all about sin and guilt and founded by St. Paul.

You don’t know that there is reincarnation, no matter what they told you. Also the brain is capable of hallucinating past lives, though false

You obviously missed these parts of the Bible (see screenshot). The Bible is meant to be taken in whole.

There is right and wrong. Mr. Twitchell taught you wrong there. It is wrong if someone murders your son.

Nobody formed Christianity. There is nothing to form. Christianity simply means being in Christ, belonging to Lord Jesus.

HedwigesMaduro:
I'm trying to decipher if you're being sarcastic or serious with this post. For the sake of your sanity I hope it's the former.

chieveboy:
To the best of my knowledge, being a divorcee does not keep you from pursuing the things of God. Eckankar teaches you that there is no such thing as 'Sin' in the first place and Eckists DO NOT carry a guilt conscience.

Paul merely reintroduced Eckankar to the public, hence he is known as the "Modern-day Founder of Eckankar". One of his many tasks is to gather or compile the sacred teachings scattered across diverse religions and present them as it were.

He is answerable only to God so much that opinions of him be they positive or negative are inconsequential.

The other person asked you to research the history of xtianity. Do you know what Paul the founder of Christianity was? I am sure if Paul Twitchel was a repentant serial killer but remained 'spotless' afterwards, you still would use that against him.

Christians DO NOT carry a guilt conscience either, unless they don’t understand. There is no sin in Christ.

There is something wrong with being a divorcee who hides where you cobbled up bits of knowledge from by lying you got them from a 500 year old guru. The religion he formed is then based on a lie. So opinions of him are very consequential.

St. Paul was not anything near being the founder of Christianity. Church of Christ NOT church of Paul. Christians NOT Paulstians.

The mafia a.k.a La familia
It was formed in 1978 at the University of Ilorin, Kwara State, but started operation in Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife in 1980. It started with eight (cool persons in its mob (institution) called the ONO-BRIGADO (1st Brigade) with the first Don as Don KOOLKAT.
Some of their belief and sayings include:
It is better for a bastard (non initiate) to chance/provoke a member than for a numbered bastard (members of other cult group)
Retaliation after oppression
Secrecy is where our power lies



How they identify themselves and their patois ...TBC

See him, mafia a.k.a La familia. Why don’t you guys find something a little bit original? Must Nigerians always be total copy cats in every aspect of life??!

I'm that guy who was initially not interested in igbo history...
Until I had a dream (revelation).... constantly...
I decided to carry out an investigation...
I came out with exactly what was constantly revealed to me.... ..
It may sound funny...
But you don't know me..

Exactly - I don’t know you, so I have to have some way of knowing your story is not fiction. Did you read Things Fall Apart? Who would believe it is ALL fiction?!

Remember when you tell stories you have to present some evidence that backs them up, otherwise they are mere fiction.
Just because something sounds good or plausible (the father of Igbos was a man named Igbo) does not mean it is true

Namnam:
Every year oil accounts for a smaller and smaller share in revenue made in this country not just for what businesses take in but also in exports
In 2012 oil was 84% of the economy
Today it’s 70% and if trends stay the same 30 years from now it’s gonna be in the 30s-40s range while manufacturing and medical equipment grows larger and larger

How should Nigerians react to this change

Well Nigeria sweet crude has gone from near zero last year to now $85 a barrel and climbing

And we are to accept all this simply because you said so. Where’s the evidence for any of this?

Maybe I’m mistaken, but I don’t know how any of this has to involve worshiping any god. How about basic meditation and breathing techniques?

StJohnofChrist:
Of course this is not the case in our society today as they are heavy users of the aforementioned with a senseless goal to ensure enmity with an established government and its agencies. They are nothing but gangsters and fools that need to be excommunicated from the society.

That’s because originally the Mafia in Sicily was an internal government of the people formed in rebellion against (and to sidestep) government imposed from Rome. Members were beloved by the people and respected. The mafia today is purely a gang of criminals into extortion and all sorts of criminality.

Bobmarie:
Your own black people in America do not even see you as equal. Humans will always harbor prejudice for things beneath them. You are not equal to white people and that is a fact. You are smarter some people too, some people are smarter than you. In this life grown ups realize some things will always be bigger than the other, it’s like the rich and poor/ lion and goat. Get out of your feelings and grow up. suffering


You sound like a poor man complaining of not being treated the same as a billionaire by the society, GET RICH NEEGA. If you want to be seen as equal, DO SOMETHING THAT PROVES YOU ARE. CHO CHO CHO CHO CHO but you CANNOT do ANYTHING TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE HUMAN RACE. Comparing yourself to people that have left Earth.

Remember, it has not always been like this and will not always be like this. Skin color has NOTHING to do with it. Remember, this era is less than a blink of an eye in the eons of time.

Don't confuse yourself. According to the Bible, God created man on the 6th day.
God had to make sure everything was in order before creating man. The ecosystem was working fine and HE introducing man made it perfect. 001spice
Wetin man for dey chop if HE had created him first?

I think you are the one confusing yourself. The Bible is not hidden nor written in secret language. There are TWO creation stories in the Bible”. In the one posted below man was created before plants and animals

Scatterscatter:
If you continue like this you won't pass WAEC

Actually 001spice is also right. Man was also created b4 plants and animals. So you are both right, and you are both wrong. See below

The5DME:
god does not exist

You don’t know enough to say that. You don’t even know if I exist or just a figment of your imagination. Infact there is NO WAY you can prove anything exists outside your head!

001spice:
nice one bro. You are absolutely right. I guess I didn't read my Bible well.

You actually did, but there are two quite different creation stories in the Bible. The second one in Genesis 2, man was created before even plants!

001spice:
where did you get your fact that animals were on earth before human when it was actually human that gave name to animals. Oga no dey talk wetin you know nothing bout.

But oga, it is right there in Genesis na. See below

I mistakenly killed a chick with my bicycle this afternoon and watching it die made me cry coz I have never killed animal before in my life. Besides I don't even have the heart of slaughtering animal

But you have the heart to eat chicken stew over rice. E go just dey sweet you

privaldo:
Okay, Jesus Christ the second thanks for your sermon. Kindly avoid mentioning me again, I'm done with this conversation.

I love you too. I’ll know you truly want me to stop mentioning you IF you stop mentioning me. If you think about it, that’s what Christ’s message is really all about - LOVE. Love God and love your fellow humans beings. How is that something so hard to live with? Accept Lord Jesus, love God, love your fellows, avoid things like Eckankar and their soul travel. Where’s the big deal in that??

privaldo:
GTFO of my mentions for humanities sake. You're a jester and I think it's best you take your religion and it's goodwill message with you, I am not interested. I am happy and I am at peace where I am.

I’m happy and at peace too because I’ve done my part - I’ve told you. You now cannot say you were never told. It is now up to you to start reasoning why someone not anywhere near the seat of power, and having virtually no money, can go about telling people he himself is the only way to God - and 2,020 years later it still stands. And no other significant person has ever made such a claim again, not before, not after. All the mighty prophets and kings, from Elijah to Solomon - NONE made such a claim. Buddha did not, Mohammed did not. Same with the Caesars, Popes, Confucious, etc.

privaldo:
That's your problem, to each his own. Believe in what you have faith in and let me do same too, it's not really that hard to do.

Actually it is. I want you to be saved. And the only way is through Christ. The ONLY way to be reconciled to God is through Lord Jesus. Think about it - of all the religious leaders you know, which of them has ever told you that he himself is the way to God? They only tell you what to do and what rituals to perform to be right with God.
Lord Jesus is the only one who said he himself is the answer. John 14:6 – “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through me.”
For someone with neither money nor influence to actually say that, tells you there has to be something supernatural going on there.
