LordReed:
Sure but why the limit of a brain though, why not just create physical realities that don't require such a limit? There is a Star Trek character and race called Q that are interdimensional beings that have practical omnipotence that is not limited by any physical body yet can create themselves any physical body they desire. Why are we not like that if this field of infinite potentialities is the case?

As Pastor AIO has rightly said, remember that this may be just one version of infinite possibilities.

I will only add that such an infinite field may not necessarily be self conscious even if it may birth self conscious beings. And many gradations down the line any combination of possibilities could arrive at some ET somewhere whose school science project was creating this world.

LordReed:
Why does it need a brain to express it's activity? You say it is in a field of infinite potentialities so why not express itself without the limitation of a physical body? Won't it be better to express itself in the infinite instead of acquiring a needless limitation?

Good question and the answer I believe is that such a field is purely intangible and can only be expressed in the physical realm through physical means. Physical expression being just one of virtually infinite forms of expression conceivable to it.

Konkoja:
You are too shallow to comprehend complex social phenomenon as it relate to ID card issue. Unfortunately, you have shown you lack capacity or unwilling to learn. Nobody will waste their time to educate you. Continue to stew in your ignorance!

I lean left, but I dont think anything can justify standing against IDs for elections. Its only common sense. Even here in vastly retarded Nigeria we use PVCs. How would you feel if a section of the country rose up in arms against the use of PVCs?

I don't think people are giving enough credit to Pence for saving US democracy.
Trump and his fellow coup plotters were banking on Pence to refuse to certify the elections, and the mob taking over the Capitol building causing chaos and probably killing a few lawmakers particularly Pelosi. Then in the ensuing Chaos, Biden could not be sworn on January 20th. And with Pelosi out of the way Trump continuation as president would have been a fait accompli.

It is a truly amazing (and frightening) thing that that man (Trump) could have even mustered as much support as he did - because that shows up the dark underbelly of the soul of America. It shows up the barely restrained hatred and racism that still lurks in many a white American heart.

And what is even scarier is the support he receives from some people of color including Africans in Africa. Nothing speaks more damningly of the effect of religion in robbing the mind.

LordReed. Just a passing thought I thought to drop. I have told you before about my thoughts about the root of reality being something I call an infinite field of potentialities. The mind is like a minuscule droptlet of that infinite field of potentialities. This is why a mind is a terrible thing to trifle with: because a mind can do almost anything.

The brain is only the physical tool for the expression and manifestation of the activity of the mind.

Nukilia:
So many actions that we take for a joke in Nigeria are serious criminal offenses in a sane world.

Sane you call them? They are gradually inching towards the starkest madness. They even discuss for how many seconds it is permissible to look a colleague directly in the eye, with any thing beyond a few seconds amounting to sexual assault, unwanted advances, harrassment, etc. You don't have a clue... These people have taken the whole thing beyond absurdity.

Zenithphil8368:
My brother if you keep something like this from your brother honestly, you don't love him and u don't love yourself because that woman isn't your brother's wife neither is she your in-law again. Imagine bring another man to her matrimonial home, imagine how they must have been nacking before now to the point she has the mind of bring the He-goat into her lost home. Bros if you av not told your brother already you are making a grievous mistake because that Bitch will kill your brother when she is ready as a matter of urgency na God want use you save your brother. If you are thinking that you are destroying the marriage my brother there is no marriage again because the Bitch ain't loyal no more & when a wife isn't loyal no more to you then you death is inevitable in her hands. Keep this from your brother at your own peril. My Opinion ooo. . Imagine the set of bitches we have as woman this days no one can even condemn the act instead they are blaming the brother for visiting his own brother house unannounced just to watch a cheating bitch riding a cock in her husband house chai we are doomed in the hands of this females

They will shout on you on top.
Just like a Lagos driver taking one way, if you try to correct him he will scream profanities at you.

Favfables1:
Not really...
If she doesn't try to beg you to keep quiet, she'll most likely threaten you ....
You'll probably hear something like, "if you dare open your mouth and tell my husband anything, I'll tell him that you broke into the house and raped me" and I'll be like, "I caught you cheating on my brother and rather than offer an explanation you're threatening me, and she'll be like "I've told you already, tell him anything and I'll tell him you tried to rape me and let's see who he will believe between me and you" and she'll end the call after that...

So my chief...
If I show you this kind recording as my bro, what will be your response ...

Believe me she will not be caught so easily after being caught already. Her opening gambit will be the direct accusation of rape. And she will shout so much (and be in tears) that the guy will not get a word in and that will be the end of the conversation, which she would have recorded and sent to her husband immediately.

Favfables1:
No female is condemning the woman's act of cheating on her husband, they're only condemning the man's act of visiting his brother unannounced...

Talk about hypocrisy ...

If I were in the guys shoes, I'll pick the woman's call and then record the entire conversation and then talk to my brother, so that just in case she chooses to emotionally manipulate my brother with her tears, I'll have a very solid evidence to back things up...

The first thing that may land on that recorded call may be the lady's voice shouting "why did you run away after you broke ihto my husbands house and tried to rape me? ? ? ? ? ! ! !"

Remember Potiphar's wife. Women can be cold and dangerous.

wirinet:
You think the junior and Middle rank officers of the military today are happy with the current state of affairs in the country?
Believe the Military of today are as pissed of at the politicians today as they were in 1966 and 1983.

Granted, but not as politically connected or involved. Not by a mile.
The most senior officers in the military today have had some twenty-two-plus years in the military behind them now under civil rule and zero political involvement - OBJ retired all officers who had held political offices so even the most senior officer today has no idea what it is to hold a political office. Not to speak of the middle and junior rank officers.

Mynd44:
Errr……me. And a whole lot of people who follow Lagos Politics.

What "governor" does it advise? Who set it up? To what institution or structure does it belong?

Echoban:
Did u not watch the vid clip where BAT said he is a leader and they only respect him because he respect their opinion, ur small mind u feel BAT is just a dictator. Laugh u. He carries everyone's opinion along. Ambode taught BAT can do and undo hence adamant to GAC warnings. The rest was history.

More reason why it's difficult to oust BAT in Lagos, he doesn't dictate against their opinion hence they too respect and ready to follow him anywhere as a leader. Learn.

Who knew of the existence of GAC before the issue of Ambode's 2nd term came up?

What the F is GAC anyway? What "governor" does it advise? Who set it up? To what institution or structure does it belong?

Mynd44:
See, he is not a dictator.

Absolutely hilarious!
Humans! We have this extraordinary capacity to kid ourselves into believing anything!
Just as some even believed Hitler was God-sent!

Mynd44:
Again, Tinubu did not reject Ambode, on the contrary, Tinubu wanted Ambode for a second term but the GAC refused.

GAC = Tinubu.
Hand of Esau, voice of Jacob.

Ambode did too many wrongs and top on the list was the sack of about 25,000 people in the whole "cleaner Lagos" business that ended up leaving Lagos as dirty as it was in 1997.

How do you sack 25,000 people with one signature? People with families, lives, dependants, rent and almost 80% of those people he sacked were party members.

Spot on.

Jakumo:
For this very reason among numerous others, it will be a cold day in hell before I ever set foot in any Middle Eastern country where women are subjugated into roles comparable to that of livestock. It is so ironic that some of the most frequent patrons of London's pricey escort women are frigging Arab men who fly over from their camel-humping desert kingdoms for a spot of good old-fashioned debauchery in England. Phucking hypocrites every one of them.

Hypocrites, I tell ya!
"We can have your women, but you dare not even look at ours!"

wirinet:
He can never become president and he knows it. The military will reject him like they rejected MKO Abiola if he rigged himself into power (MKO won fair and square though). Tinubu is too power hungry and greedy.

Bear in mind though, that the military of today is not the same highly political military of those days.

Zandena:
Your ignorance is legendary!
The school in question not a private christuan school but a school wholly owned and funded by the Kwara state government (grant aided schools) after the departure of missionaries who originally built the schools.
Now how can one religion (christianity)wants to impose its beliefs on others like muslims who are not Christians in a public school?
Haba!
Will Christians take that shit from other religion?
Now they're stockpiling weapons and missiles to kill peaceful muslims protesters! Imagine all sorts of things you will be reading by now if it was Muslims that fired shot and missile

As far as attempting to impose views on others is concerned, Islam is the undisputed world champion.

Jakumo:
Any Baptist school is by definition a Christian school, therefore wearing of masquerade costumes by women should naturally be prohibited.

Perhaps the parents who sent their children to an obviously Christian school should consider taking their children to a Muslim school so that peace can reign. Seeking to violently impose the attire of a non-Christian religion on a Christian school is both morally and constitutionally wrong.

Those rioters should kindly vote with their angry feet and phuck off to a school that conforms with their religious persuasion. If your family no be Christian family, no be by force to send ya pikin go Christian school. Send dem go Koranic school for where dem dey dress cover face how you like.

The slave-imprisonment-ninja-hijab is an affront to womanhood as it seeks to deprive women of their very individuality and identity in a bid to effectively banish them from all public view and thus from society and thereby hold them hostage to the dictates of a medieval and frankly barbaric worldview.

Gollust is remaining at CNN.

In a memo of her own, Gollust said, "Jeff and I have been close friends and professional partners for over 20 years. Recently, our relationship changed during COVID. I regret that we didn't disclose it at the right time. I'm incredibly proud of my time at CNN and look forward to continuing the great work we do everyday."

Is it just me or there is some imbalance here?

This man is the greatest fraud ever to befall this country - for a country so blessed with intellect and verve, what a shame to be led by one such as this. Sadly however, it remains true that this country deserves this type of leader. When we deserve better, we will get better.

Unlettered:
Dumb thing to say sha.

He believes that regardless of what has happened, this is a second chance for him to do more good in the world. His belief that their is a supreme being he needs to thank is ok with him. But the fact you took someone else’s med is sad.

You dont believe in any supreme being? Thats cool, your opinion. But dont shit on his own bruh.

FreestufsNG:
Thank God for his mercies.

kuntash:
You couldn't have put it better bro ...

Such people at the Verge of physical predicament would start singing and seeking God's face and intervention ...

May God almighty have mercy on his own ... Amen !

KingOfBoyz1:
you don stop to drag weed. Na cow shit u dey drag abi. God is God.. Don't fight the Almighty

dammyco:
Always give thanks.

Isobug:
I thank God for saving your life

I just don't understand our relationship with this God. We thank this God for everything. When things are good, we thank God that they are good. When things are evil, we thank God saying things could be worse. We thank God for winning football games without sparing a thought for those who lost. We thank God for "saving" us from a motor accident without sparing a thought for those who died - even in the same accident. It is said that we must thank this God for everything. Sometimes people even say we must thank God for the air we breathe - forgetting that if we could not breathe, then we would not exist at all in order to be able to thank the same God. So God makes you exist, you thank him. In order for you to exist, you need to breathe, and you thank him again that he allowed you to breathe. Seems somewhat strange and duplicitous to me. However all things considered, this God has cleverly invented things in such a way that thanks are always owed to him - no matter how terrible the tragedy or how harrowing our lives - because remember - it could always be worse.

I wonder what breed of thanks should be offered to this God by the bereaved here -

We are all fraudsters in the eyes of God.

What is this. Who dashed humanity this pious-self-loathing manufactured by religion through which we are all to consider ourselves the lowliest, filthiest scum of the Earth before some cosmic Kim-Jung-Il? The same cosmic Kim who is responsible for the madness and nastiness of Earth-Life as presented to us. Please.

I support the coupe and i pray for such of thing to happen in Nigeria to in order to re-arrange this country and Chase away all the corrupt leaders

You are probably still a child who never quite experienced military rule as a grown up. If you had, you would shut your trap.

wirinet:
Hollywood doesn't glamorise witches and vampires. They don't present them as means of obtaining riches. Most of the time they are used in the setting of an ancient or fantasy world, which you cannot relate with in today's world. It is usually a reminder of when Europe or America was in the dark ages where superstition ruled people's minds.

Nollywood presents witches as being still relevant and beneficial in today's world.

Looks like you stopped watching Hollywood several decades ago.

wirinet:
A huge portion of the blame.

Plays, books and movies dictate the aspirations and directions of a society.
Ancient Roman plays are always about conquest and war, hence Rome ended up a huge empire always at war.

So which came first. The plays about war or the wars.

Sci fi US movies (Hollywood), TV series and books of the 60s and seventies were about incredible scientific feats - space travel, wireless communication, powerful computers, artificial intelligence, human like robots, etc. Today all these aspirations has been met.

Nigerian movies and stories from the 80s and 90s were about making money rituals, yahoo yahoo ( I go chop your money), run girls (prostitution) and poor girl marrying rich man. All these are the aspirations of an average Nigerian youth today.

That art imitates life is too well known for you to try to dispute it. It is way beyond cavil.

Shame on you!

The shame is on you, medieval caveman.

I don’t like it(I don’t like ashawo vibez like 2-3neckchains, leg chains and piercing) .

Jewelry and piercings are ashawo vibes abi? OK. Please may i recommend you go to Saudi Arabia to find a bride.
Your spec should be there, with full ninja options.

RussellRutherfo:
Money that will be used for the development of the country. The Jihadist government is using it to send many people to hell to go see the god of the pedophile Headslamming false prophet muhamMad.

Anyone who wants to go on Hajj(old copied Arabic pagan pilgrimage) should do that out of his or her own pocket. That should not be the work of the government.

Pardon the digression, but what do these words mean in your signature -

Russel&Rutherford Corporation run by 8 men Governing Body members (The False and Discreet Slave)

TheNiceGuy:
How do you know this? Because the last time we checked, not a single dime is added to private Hajj pilgrimage potential.

What a liar.

https://punchng.com/despite-recession-states-others-spend-over-n136-5bn-on-hajj/

Awesomeking:
the government doesn't sponsor hajj pilgrimage, the money being paid by the govermemnt is gotten from the fees they charge individuals

Something like you paying the government to help you charter a taxi to a different town, the government pays the taxi driver with your money.

Please stop defending the indefensible with ignorant lies. The Hajj is subsidized.
