alexleo: This brings us to the earlier answer i gave that God was not taken unawares by Lucifer. He knew before hand that Lucifer will fall and still created him and this means that he created him for a purpose. God also knew that the fall of lucifer will lead to the fall of man and he made provision for our redemption plan. Revelations 13:8 says he is the [b]lamb of God slain from the foundation of the world. [/b]This simply tells you that the fall of lucifer and the fall of man is part of the creation package. None took God unawares. And it is for a purpose. Do you agree with me?

So you mean God did that on purpose so we all gather here on earth and be tormented by lucifer? If he did that on purpose why did he regret ever creating man? (Genesis 6:6). Will you regret what you did on purpose?

ikes9: one thing yhu people fail to realise is this....
God our Eternal father... created all things...(Planets..galaxies etc...)...He also created all creatures(Angels and Humans)....God didn't create a defective angel that would later rebel and become Satan... in every being God created... he gave FREE CHOICE(or how i call it.. AGENCY)......We all have the freedom of choice..we can choose to Worship God... or we can choose to live a life of Sin...
but beware..
we have the freedom to choose our actions
but we do not have the freedom to.choose the consequences of our actions.....
The rebellion in Heaven.. is Enough proof that God gave his angels freedom of choice.
. ask your self... y didn't God immediately destroy Lucifer when that evil thought of rebellion came into.his mind
In Gods INFINITE wisdom..he knew the best thing to do..was to let it run its course...if yhu want more answers...
y don't yhu live a good Christ like life here.on earth...
when yhu get to Heaven..
yhu can ask God himself...

will that freewill be striped of man when they go to heaven? If no, that means there is every possibility someone will rebel. Why should we wait till we go to heaven to get answers? Getting the answers here on earth is still a course to know about God. There will definitely be no need having such knowledge in heaven cos you will definitely be doing nothing with it.

frank317: is the God you are talking about here same as the all knowing and all powerful God? if he is all knowing why is he accepting a challenge from lucifer his creation?

why would God answer 'yes, because i am their creator' to lucifer only for him to be proven wrong by lucifer?

how can you write the above and still believe God is all knowing and all powerful?

how can the creation challenge the creator? or was lucifer not his creation?

and this does not answer the question... how did lucifer conceive evil thought?

from where did these thoughts come from?

if he was created perfect... how did imperfect evil thought come into his mind

if he was not created perfect how could a good and perfect God, devoid of evil create an imperfect being? what did he stand to gain? why is he angry at the imperfection he created?

Thank you!!!

careema: whats make up my dear? make up starts with the soap you bath with. i rub powder to make my face look fresher doesnt mean im not original. oh i forgot, lemme ask you dis question before i forget, i hope you dont iron? cus if you do that means you arent being original. come off it, make up isnt about all color paint, make up is hygeine. bringing the beauty out of the ordinary. expensive isnt make up. i wear a non expensive powder which makes my face looks radiant, what about that?

Yeah, i don't bath, i don't comb my hair, i don't brush my teeth, i don't put on foot wears, in fact, i remove all the teeth in my mouth cos they are all makeup. I am still trying to turn to dust since man was made from dust. The flesh is also a makeup. Hope you understand what makeup is now? Ehen, so i fit rest now

koyyes: I really hope you are a 'real man' who likes being himself by not wearing clothes, perfumes/deodorant or applying body cream to moisturize your naturally cracked skin. Keep up the good work if you don't do any of these.

I am a real man. Not only that, I even removed all my teeth cos it's a makeup cos i was born without them. Since you guys don't know the definition of makeup.

harev16: That's why you can only count up from the day you were born, because you know the day you were born.

So as you are counting up are you not getting older? If you are getting older are you not getting closer to the grave. That means the time to the grave is shortening(or counting down). Thank you

harev16: Nice piece... But I think the idea of a countdown to the grave is a little out of place. Life has no definite span, so you can't countdown to the unknown

since life has no definite span, why are you counting your age to the unknown? Or do you know your final age? Hear the guy above me.

fr3do: Copy and paste from a British site

Lol! I don't do copy and paste. That's why i used reference instead of source. I made reference of the site but didn't quote them verbatim. In fact mine has more details in some sections and even an addition of what is not in the site or any other site. So bro, go back to the site and compare

OP it only works for very few numbers within that range. For example try 12 * 12 and see that it won't work

Here is a list of some fact about birthdays you probably don't know:

1. Before the 19th century, dates of birth were not officially noted, although baptisms occasionally were. England began keeping parish records of births, deaths and marriages in 1538 but this wasn’t implemented for the entire population until the Registration Act of 1836. The first British census in 1801 didn’t record age, and it wasn’t introduced as a question until 1831 - even then it wasn’t mandatory to answer. It wasn’t until the 1851 census that people had to record their precise ages.

2. Birthday Paradox
If there are 23 people in a room there is a 50-50 chance that two of them will share a birthday. This is known as the birthday paradox, because it appears there are only 22 possible pairs and therefore a low chance of a match. In fact, because every guest could match with every other guest, there are 253 possible combinations (1+2+3+4… up to 22) and the probability of finding a successful one is 50.048%. If you are confused by that then try view it this way: [If you have a list of 23 people, comparing the birthday of the first person on the list to the others allows 22 chances for a matching birthday, the second person on the list to the others allows 21 chances for a matching birthday - in fact the 'second' person also has total 22 chances of matching birthday with the others but his/her chance of matching birthday with the 'first' person, one chance, has already been counted with the first person's 22 chances and shall not be duplicated, third person has 20 chances, and so on. Hence total chances amounts to 253]. The probability reaches 100% when the number of people reaches 367 (since there are 366 possible birthdays, including February 29). However, 99.9% probability is reached with just 70 people. These conclusions include the assumption that each day of the year (except February 29) is equally probable for a birthday. In fact you don't need bother about this if you aint a statistician.

3. Queen's Birthday
The Queen’s actual birthday is April 21 but she celebrates her official birthday on a suitable Saturday in June (the Government chooses which one). One of the reasons is to ensure good weather for the Trooping the Colour ceremony, held to mark the monarch’s birthday since 1748. The Queen has attended all the ceremonies during her reign apart from in 1955, when the parade was cancelled due to a rail strike.

4. Happy Birthday Song
The “Happy Birthday” song originated in 1893 when teacher Mildred Hall thought of the
tune. Her sister Patty added words and they christened the piece Good Morning to All. It was intended to be sung as children entered the classroom but was switched to be sung to the teacher, and became Good Morning to You. As the song grew in popularity, it was sung outside schools and became Happy Birthday to You. The song is protected under copyright until at least 2030.

5. Cards and Present
Britons send more than 300million birthday cards a year. Cards that play a song when you open them use more computing power than was used to send man to the moon. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, a popular 21st birthday present was to have all your teeth removed and replaced with a set of dentures – the idea was it would prevent the expense of dental treatment later in life. Shirley Temple received 135,000 presents for her eighth
birthday.

6. Birthday as count-up and count-down timer
Each time you celebrate +1year on earth you are as well celebrating -1year to the grave. So birthdays counts down in same manner as it counts up.

If dem like make them add nairaland join, that does not stop facebook from being boring. I enjoyed it most around '08 and '09

repogirl: lol, you need better lines dude, seriously! You like her tone, what does that even mean?

I bet you don't wanna know. By the way it's none of your business
.

goldentreasure: @chuxy, I repeat again marriage is not all about physical structures. It's more of love and personality. Most men cheat because they want a taste of a different soup. 99 percent of men dat cheat love their wives very much. After living with one person for so long, you don't notice their beauty anymore. The only thing that carries you both is ur spouse's character and attitude. So artificial beauty is never d reason why men cheat. There is totally nothing wrong wit make up. so my dear stop putting a square peg on a round hole because it can never fits it,

Once again, where is your statistics from. How does that sound to you that someone who loves his wife will cheat on her? Why should you say that? Will you cheat on someone you love? You fail to answer my previous questions. Men cheat because they want to test a better soup not a different soup. If you tell me it is character that keeps couples going, that means you are saying men who cheat do so because they see women with better character. Everything is wrong with makeup my dear. A man marries a woman with good character and later find out he doesn't make love with the character. He finds out that what the physique he desires in a woman is not found in character, why won't he cheat. Stop claiming you know about men when you know no jackshit. Character is not what men look in a woman - it is beauty first and know that now. When you keep a natural beauty, go to gym, look fit and cool, how will your husband cheat outside when he has something better at home? It's like when a woman cooks good food. The husband will remain hungry outside till he comes back home to eat his wife's food. Same way women cheat on their husband when he doesn't meet to their standard. If a woman finds his man complete, she won't cheat else she will cheat.

repogirl: *rolls eyes*

Lol. Wetin you deh roll eye for? Continue! Na when your eye go roll comot from your eye socket.

Maonyz: Lol. Hope you are being ur self as u type this? Are u natural? The way God created you? As in "natural" ? You need to appreciate how you came into this world(if you know warraimean)....no clothes, no shoes etc. They are just same as makeup. Any addition to how God created you is a makeup.

I shouldn't bath as well cos I didn't come to earth with soap. I should remove my teeth cos I came to earth without one. I wonder what you people define as being natural. Since you all want me to spell it out. Cloths and shoes are not part of the body. They are things you use to be naturally looking good. They are not things you fix or wear to compliment, exaggerate or enhance any part of your body such as eyepencil, fixed eyebrow, mascara, lipstick, lipgloss, fixed nail, fixed hair, eyelid, mary-k even butt pad. Of course I'm not against looking good but keep it natural.

Lily4star: Congrats on the frontpage but while the bragging like a million dollar is being paid to your account for it, is making frontpage part of the discussion or are u the first making it?

whatever I do to make me look good, I do it for me, stop taking panadol for someone elses headache, if u feel saying how I feel concerning the topic means seeking for attention its up to you.

Keep your congrats to yourself. Frontpage or no frontpage I am always out to speak not the truth but the fact. I don't give a damn whether I'm in frontpage or backpage. You only said my post is useless and I agreed with you but that it's not useless to some people who made it hit frontpage. Did you see anywhere I rejoiced that my page hit frontpage? You are the one adding more value to this frontpage thing sef or is that your itch? I can beg the admin to take it off so I can rest for I know that's the itch of many here but I'm not moved or perturbed. I never had any individual in mind before posting I don't know all this direct attack. Hmmmmn. Una easy o!

goldentreasure: @chuxyz, pls you are not hitting it at all. Make up cannot make an ugly woman beautiful. I don't make up to change my facial structures. And marriage is not all about physical structures, it's more of a personality of d person. Statistics has shown dat men wit beautiful wives cheat d most. A cheater will always be a cheater. A man with a slim wife will go out there to look for a fat lady and d one with a fair wife will cheat with a black woman e, t.c. That's men for u.

If makeup does not make an ugly woman look beautiful, so why do ugly women makeup? To look uglier? If you don't makeup to enhance your looks, so why do you makeup? Where is the source of that your statistics sef? A cheat remains a cheat until his/her desires are completely met. A man with slim wife cheats with a fat lady might be cos he prefer fat ladies but didn't marry one or might be cos the lady is fat but for something else. Trust me, if a man is satisfied with his wife, if he sees his wife superior over other women, he will never cheat. I hang out with married men daily. We rub minds and they always discuss times they cheated and why. And most times you realise they didn't marry their heart desire. For me in particular, For example, if I love women with big hips and I'm no fan of big bosom, nothing can attract me to a woman of big bosom and I can't cheat because of a woman's bosom. If something happens and I finally married a small hip lady, of course I will go out looking for that big hips I desire and that's where cheating comes in. Men marry artificial women and later discover that's not what they need.

anumide: (1) why I apply makeup is nobody's business
(2) your thread is pointless, seeing that it can't stop ladies from wearing makeup, or men who like them from marrying them
(3) you need a job.
#goodbye

1. I never had you in mind before I created the thread. If you like resemble ojuju calabar no be yourself?
2. You came on a pointless thread to comment. Only one with a pointless sense will comment on a pointless thread.
3. Yeah! How did you know? Immediately you said goodbye I became jobless. I really need more people like you to do work on their pointless brain. If you have friends like you just tell them to mention me and see.
#Idiot

Cheeun: You should understand my fellow nairalanders nah. Sorry. I totally agree with u there & u're welcome.

Lol! Thanks I really like your tone. I'll like to make you a chat mate if you don't mind. I believe you will be a nice one to rub mind with.

anumide: Dude, when I was very much unemployed, I take my bath early in d morning, get dressed, apply my makeup
And feel good (mind you, I live in d suburbs). The presence of so many villagers did change my style. Stop claiming that you are '100% sure' of something when you don't even know me, or that I will 'never' do. Something because the. Unemployed women. In your. Compound walk around all day with net on. Their hair/wrapper on their waists.
Open your mind, your opinion does not apply to everyone. People are different, one man's fufu is another man's amala

that means you have no purpose of applying makeup and just doing it cos others are doing it. No offence, but if you are making up, u are either doing it for someone. If not a man, then a woman. You can be indoors and fix eyelash, paint nails, wear lipstick, mary-k, eyepencil, mascara. Who are you doing it for? Or u just apply it and go to bed?

Cheeun: I don't think i understand u o Op. Come, are u saying that making up is totally bad or too much of it? Cos if u ask me o i really don't see anything wrong in make-up cos it's cool when it is moderately applied. I repeat MODERATELY! See, i love wearing makeup o but it's always very light cos i hate it when heads begin to roll and they are like 'who be diz Eegun (masqurade) now?' Chai! I fit die there o cos am a shy person lol. Infact, am an aspiring makeup artist sef so i think it's no biggie and not bad for a lady to atleast own a 'white' powder(dat's what i use cos of d nature of my skin) or a compact either ways, a lipstick, an eye pencil and a mascara, maybe. Hmm i yaff talk too much jor. Eh ehn, Op ask ur gf/wifey to try it out and see if u won't thank me later.
N.B: I do go all natural MOST OF D TIME(depends on my mood tho') but i love makeup so i ain't preaching being natural is bad. *in Yuzedo's voice* Tenks

Wow! I like your the tone of your voice and they way you sounded. I really appreciate and almost convinced that makeup is the ultimate. It wasn't like those raining curse on me like I came here to fight or cause trouble. My dear, I am a man, and I have been in round table to discuss with both married and unmarried men countless number of times. And I have come to understand that men appreciate natural beauty than artificial makeup. They see women who apply makeup as fake goods that are cheap and can only satisfy immediate need. Of course a man will get attracted to you or even marry you but he will end up to discover that this is not what he needs. Your artificial beauty will only take you there but will never keep you there. I and most men adore beautiful ladies without makeup. Before a man marries you, he sees you most of the time on makeup but after marriage, he sees you most of the time without makeup. And trust me, he might no like his new sight. Be who you are and let one be attracted to you the way you are. Go to gym, keep fit, look naturally good and sexy and I assure you, no man will see you as a fake product. Thanks once more for that comment. It made me smile and appreciate an opposing nairalander for once. People though everyone came here to fight

ivyy: If every man in here hates makeup this much. Why do men chase after girls on makeup? Maintain and suatain relationships with them as well? Infact get married to them too?

Moderation is all that matters. You will definitely not hate it when it looks acceptable and presentable on someone.

they chase after them cos they see them as fake. Fake products are cheap and can only satisfy your immediate need. A man who is concerned about the future won't look at artificial beauty at all. Most men fall into this trap and end up not settling down with what they want. And that's why men will still look outside after marriage. Trust me, if a man gets what he wants he won't cheat. Cheating is as a result of insatiable want. Go to gym, look naturally good and attractive. Not having big and flabby tommy and only concerned with makeup and artificial hair. Trust me, the man will get tired someday.

anumide: I don't believe some people still think that ladies makeup
'coz they want to attract men. Well, lemme speak for myself
When I go out wiv my weaves/hair extensions, light makeup
And all, I do it for MYSELF! Still, 'm true to my God, myself, my values, my family and my country! I don't do to impress anyman, so if a particular man thinks my appearance makes me a liar, he's free to move on to Sis Biliki. My own man won't pass me by.

Story! Na God dem wan attract abi? If i keep you alone indoors for one year with access to all kinds of makeups. I am 100% sure you won't see any need for them. You will take your bath, cut you nails, brush your teeth, but will never makeup
