Christianity Etc › Re: The Dark Side Of The Crusades: Massacres, Cannibalism, And The Fall Of Jerusalem by Difrent: 6:12am On Jun 30
sweetjohn:
We Christians don’t deny our mistakes. Both Muslims and Christians have treated the Jews badly. But the moment Christians started reading the Bible by themselves when it was interpreted to all languages; we now know better and stop attacking the Jews . Judaism is the basis of our faith. And we now love the Jews somuch. But you guys have constantly and foolishly refused to learn that you can never ever defeat this people bc they are God chosen people.
Yaaa
As usual, Christianity wants to forget it's sordid pasts claiming it's has reformed in the 19the century
But won't give way for Muslims to go through what they went through before reforming knowing they had a 600 years headstart
No I'm not Saying it will take 600 years after Christian reformation before Islam reforms , but give it time , Islam will also reform itself
With all the Christian reformation we still see those whose practices are suspect eg. Celestial church, Mormon church, Ekankar etc
Islam in places like in Indonesia is very different from what is practiced in Afghanistan.
Even in Nigeria, in the south west their own brand of Islam isn't the violent type they practice up north
Mohammed was a religious leader, political leader and military leader so his religion encompasses all the three aspects of his life
That you follow Jesus based on a fable that once you believe in him you will be clear of sins no matter how terrible it's is, is not a problem to Muslims who also have their own fables
Lastly
Wetin even concern African man with the religion of father Abraham sef? China is going to take over from the USA as world power , is that a defeat of the Judeo-Christian west? No it's not but a proof that not only Christianity brings prosperity as west usually like to claim
Business › Re: Petrol Import Landing Cost Drops To ₦983.92/Litre, Below Dangote’s ₦1,125 by Difrent: 6:49am On Jun 29
Macphenson:
Pls NNPC should give more importers license to import fuel. This is exactly why Dangote is against those licenses so that he can have monopoly of the market and exploit Nigerians recklessly.
Read an article that tried to explain this. It was discovered that Dangote sells petrol a bit cheaper to the other west African nations so our ever innovative importers devised a means by which they go to those other countries mop up the cheap petrol and bring it back to Nigeria and ironically it will still be cheaper than what Dangote is selling to Nigerians
I'm one of those who used to see nothing wrong with Dangote monopoly but changed my mind after reading this article
Mans just exploiting his fellow Nigerians
Yes I know he a capitalist

But I really pity the man, he isn't doing all this by himself, he ran for office with a no new war slogan
Only for him to get into office and the war hawks in Washington told him to his face the USA cannot survive without wars
It's military industrial complex is integrated into its economy, without wars there will be serious problems, how do they spend the almost a trillion dollars defence budgets if they don't do airstrikes, bombing campaigns and invasions ?

Kobojunkie:
1. You are still not making any sense here. If you were referencing, maybe, the religion of Islam, I would maybe grant you this one. undecided

2. So, a Christian eating store-bought chicken or meat during easter is tantamount to killing the son of this god as a sacrifice? Even the Jewish folks who celebrate Passover around the same period as the Christians do not do so because of some god or sons. So... I really don't know why you feel you need to force this one. undecided

Are you merely attention wh0ring or something? undecided
Lolz
You know what I'm talking about
So because it's store bought, is the chicken not do celebrate Christmas?
Except you want tell me that the chicken was not killed,
It's blood sacrifices you do on Christmas and Easter

Kobojunkie:
1. First, I am not a Christian; I am instead irreligious. However, I accept the place of religion as the foundation of every nation out there. Second, these supposed atrocities of early Christians, you pretend, are all imagined. Why? Because the Spanish Inquisition, which, my guess is, you are referring to, was against the Jews in Spain, it occurred around the 1400s, almost 700 years after Islam had continuously and brutally massacred its way across Europe, Asia, and Africa. undecided

2. Wrong! undecided

3. How does killing animals for food amount to something comparable to human sacrifices and massacres? undecided
Your no 3 did not begin as source of food but as a gesture to replace Isaac who was to be sacrificed by his father to God, y'all simply replaced the son with animals
Like Atheists say, Which God demands his sons sacrifice before he could forgive sins? The Christian God of course
If Christians really think their religion through most will leave it as seen all over the developed world
It just doesn't make sense

Eventually, it was also the white man who pushed to end slavery across the world.
Christianity played a role too cos it actually made them realise the evil of slavery and they decided to end it unlike in islamic culture where slavery still continues till date

Kobojunkie:
These are your own words.

2. Correction, every religion on earth DOES NOT have barbarism ingrained in its scriptures. If you had ever taken the time to read more, you would know this. As for you refusing to acknowledge that your religion is not the best as far as civilization is concerned, that is a personal issue, not for this thread. undecided
Funny
But you Christians don't also like acknowledging the attrocities of early Christianity that was very bloody
Last last both religions have blood on their hands and till this day continues to do blood sacrifices at least twice a year during Easter/ Ramadan
And Sallah/Christmas
Abi what else do you call the killing of millions of animals on these occasions if not animal sacrifices

sweetjohn:
Nonesense post. The crusade was formed as a reesult of the Muslim Ottoman Empire that were killing millions of Christians and jews in Europe and around the world. The European Christians then formed the crusade to teach Muslims a lesson and defend Christianity from extinction[s][/s]
Ironically the same European Christians that "saved" Jews from Muslims would centuries later be the ones that persecuted the Jews to the extent they decided to move back to their homeland in Palestine
Family › Re: Please Help! I'm Getting Tired Of My 3months Old Marriage by Difrent: 5:21am On Jun 28
Badgers14:
To the bolded.. you don't "confront her".

You were supposed to sit down with her on a very good day and find out what the situation might be.. it might not even be what you were thinking.. it could also be it.. she might be overwhelmed of this marriage thing.. like so, she is out of her papa house like dis.. she can't just be going to hang out with her girls, jist etc..any time she want etc... it is normal to feel that way.. just like women experience post partum disorder.. some women sef experience post partum psychosis.. that is after giving birth, they change.. It seems like they went crazy..

Once you both understand the root cause.. then in unity, you both come up with plans to tackle the situation together.. this is also a learning moment for you both.. to understand yourselves better..

Not to pour kerosene in the fire.. but this is not the end.. ask anyone that have been in marriage 5, 10, 15, 20 ... years they will tell you.. there are moments that will make someone want to run away grin.. situations like this happens, even to Daddy and mummy GOs, they are not exempt.. this is part of human life.

The difference is, the longer you are in the union, the better you know how to handle/address situations like this. And the better you understand your partner and the best way to get the best out of them..

Cheers!!

Good luck!!
Good advice. I've come to learn that communication is very important in marriage and most people have problems in their marriage because they couldn't communicate with eachother very well

Chijeep:
To cut the long story short, I did my traditional marriage 3momths ago, though I met the girl online but before we even started talking about marriage, our chat always flow with fun and togetherness.

But the moment we return back to our base after the marriage this girl started behaving like introvert and a bit celibacy. Won't want to talk to me like in the aspect of gisting and barely share issues and decisions with me. Even the aspect of food she hardly find interest in eating what I'm able to provide.
I've confronted her more than 3 times and reminded her that I told you already before we go into this union that I'm not rich yet and I'm managing, and she assured me that she's also not from a rich home either and she'll be supportive. but now the girl will be acting as if I'm forcing her to eat the rubbish I provided.

I told her that she's free to quit the marriage if she's not that impressed and happy but she doesn't want to or maybe she's thinking of how people will see her.

PLEASE WHAT CAN I DO AS THIS IS AFFECTING MY EMOTIONS?, BECAUSE I'M A GUY THAT DECIDED TO LIVE AND DO MY THINGS ALONE, SO THAT I'LL BE ABLE TO HAVE MORE TIME WITH MY WIFE AND CHILDREN WHEN THE TIME COMES.
Looks like you didn't study or understand eachother very well before getting engaged

Since it's still engagement, the marriage can still be called off if you are not willing to go on again

But then , do you know how the next woman will turn out
Maybe even worse than this one
The point is theres no perfect union anywhere, both parties make adjustments to accommodate eachother
And if it doesn't work out dissolution is the best Solution

Dpharmacist:
Today, June 26, marks the International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, also known as World Drug Day.

This year's theme, "The World Drug Problem: Persisting Issues, New Challenges, Innovative Responses," could not be more timely.

Drug abuse is no longer just a law enforcement issue. It is a public health issue, a mental health issue, a family issue, and an economic issue.

Across the world, millions of people are struggling with substance use disorders. Many never receive treatment. Many suffer in silence because of stigma. Many families watch loved ones battle addiction without knowing where to seek help.

What makes today's challenge even more complex is that the drug landscape is changing rapidly.

New synthetic substances are emerging. Social media has become a channel for drug promotion and distribution. Young people are being exposed to harmful substances earlier than ever. Meanwhile, misinformation continues to spread faster than evidence based health information.

As healthcare professionals, educators, policymakers, parents, and community leaders, we must move beyond awareness alone.

We need:

✔ Stronger prevention programs
✔ Early education for young people
✔ Better access to treatment and rehabilitation
✔ Evidence based policies
✔ Compassion instead of stigma
✔ Community support for recovery

One important truth often overlooked is that addiction is not a moral failure. It is a health condition that requires prevention, treatment, support, and long term recovery strategies.

Every life lost to drug abuse is a reminder that the cost of inaction is far too high.

On this World Drug Day, let us commit to building healthier communities by sharing facts, supporting prevention efforts, promoting treatment, and creating environments where people can seek help without fear or shame.

The fight against drug abuse is not the responsibility of governments alone.

It belongs to all of us.

The Drug Problem Is Evolving, So Our Response Must Evolve Too.
One of the major problems is the definition
Is the problem drug use
Or
Drug abuse
Is it okay for one to use drugs , while not abusing it?

Most drugs are for a particular purpose and abuse is a problem so I ask again is the problem drug use or drug abuse

Family › Re: The Day You Realize Your Parents Were Stronger Than You Thought by Difrent: 6:23am On Jun 20
Dpsychologist:
One of the biggest shocks of adulthood is discovering that life is much harder than it looked when you were a child.

Many young people grow up feeling disappointed in their parents. They see poverty, financial struggles, unfinished dreams, and hardships. Some even tell themselves, "I will work harder than my parents and become far more successful."

At first, it sounds easy until adulthood arrives. Bills begin to pile up. Jobs become difficult to find. Businesses fail. Responsibilities multiply. Unexpected emergencies appear. The same person who once criticized their parents now finds themselves working long hours, struggling to save money, and fighting daily battles nobody sees.

Suddenly, a painful realization emerges.

The parents they looked down on were raising children, paying rent, feeding a family, handling pressure, and surviving in circumstances that were often worse than what they face today.

Many people eventually discover that their parents achieved more with fewer opportunities.

This does not mean every parent made perfect decisions. Some certainly made mistakes. However, adulthood teaches a valuable lesson: surviving is often harder than judging.

Life has a way of humbling people.

The father you thought lacked ambition may have been carrying burdens you never knew about. The mother you believed was not successful may have been sacrificing her own dreams to keep the family together.

Growing older often replaces criticism with respect. Nothing exposes the weight your parents carried more than carrying your own.

Adulthood is the stage where many people stop asking, "Why didn't my parents do better?" and start asking, "How did they manage to do all that and still keep going?"

Sometimes wisdom is realizing that the people you once thought were weak were actually stronger than you ever imagined.

Now our time is more difficult than theirs. Things are more expensive and life is more difficult.
