TheMadame:
Ancient Babylonian first kingdom existed around the years 1894 to 1595 BC.

How rational human being could equate this time frame and dissemination of information with 2025 of Nairaland and Linda Ikeji or CNN just beats me hollow.

During these times and era few people were literate and messages were written painstakingly by hand.
Nowadays with a click of a button I am submitting this post and you are comparing it to men writing of tablets of stone and cuneiform.

I believe you get my point for CNN is older than Al Jazeera and Arise tv yet my question still stands that do you say since all of them report the same news therefore they must have copied from somebody?

Secondly, did writing and literacy start in Babylon and were they the only people in the whole world who could write?

Goosethetruth:
None of the purported writers of the gospels were witnesses to the events they wrote upon. That is why even though the four gospels inserted I'm the Bible are clever copies of each other the writers super-imposed their own agenda and believe over the message of Jesus.
In fact it may be argued that Paul had a more close encounter with the message of Jesus on the road to Damascus than the writers of the gospels who did not know Jesus but relied on hearsay and oral tradition about the activities of Jesus more than 50 years later.
None of the writers of the gospels were witnesses. Stop misleading people!

If you accept Paul's report, then you would have seen that Paul corroborates the reports of the disciples for even his own story starts on the basis of a disciple.

So, if you accept Paul then you must accept the disciples and their corroborating testimony.

And since you allege that none of the disciples were witnesses to Christ and all, I would like to see what proof
you have of them and I hope you are not going to say that it was the Romans who created it. That proposition was bursted.

lowkeybahdguy:
What you failed to observe is that sex for men is a natural duty hardwired by nature for the purpose of procreation and the continued survival of the human specie...

You definitely would stop saying this when women start dropping the babies at your house

lowkeybahdguy:
First off, Are you a man? If no, please shut up.

If yes, give it time. Do some more living. Life will provide you all the answers you seek.

As you be bahdguy, you no need the gold wey she drop so.

Manculated:
Lol they aren't doing it intentionally, that is exactly how they were designed

It's left to you to do your due dilligence about them on how to always match their energy and stay ahead of them successfully.

If you say it is not intentional then there is no need for diligence

AngelicDamsel:
Once a man can control himself from getting sex, he gains control.

When a man can control himself from giving sex, game over!

True Talk!

Sex is the power of women.

AngelicDamsel:
Sex is power to most ladies, so when a man outrightly rejects them, they doubt themselves.

That is only because they feel too powerful and godlike and win 100% of the time until they meet a Joseph who made them lose and made them wonder if their power was weakening.

However, they know that they would still be successful next time. It's just that they did not expect that their 100% would drop to 99%.

FreeIgboho:
Ok, let's analyze. If she agrees to sex, while you're doing it is when she'll finally get aroused, then after all that trouble she probably won't climax because most times they don't, plus you'll traumatize her insides and she could possibly catch an infection from bacteria being pushed in, plus mess up her hair and make-up, plus she could get pregnant, etc. While you, all you do is stick your dick in, have your fun and climax. That's it. Women are slow to get in the mood so when she's already in the mood, maybe she's already near climax, you ought accommodate her.
So you see, it's not equal. She has a right to be angry if you refuse even once just as you have a right to be angry if she refuses too many times!

This is a Lie. Women are like us but because they are always riding phalli upanda therefore they would have no drive. But unfortunately for you Mr boyfriend you now call her for your own ride. But since she has already won you then it is at her will to either give you or not.

And because she has already won you then she most likely will not give you.

But let one married man call her that same moment and see if she would not carry cloth up for the plug in.

Goosethetruth:
Read up on the writers of the Bible OT. Scholars who dedicate their lives to study of the Christian Bible have found that these books were written by various writers and edited and named by those who cobbled the Bible together.

You may like to ask yourself if it is possible for Moses ro have written the book of Deuteronomy and then recorded his OWN DEATH in Chapter 34 verse 5 ?

The simple logical truth is that the editors and compilers of the books of the Bible just decided to affix names of religious leaders to these books. It doesn't mean the person whose name is affixed to a book wrote it.

There is no evidence that the gospels were written by people named Mark,Matthew,Luke and John. The editors and compilers of the Bible who were the early leaders of the Church decided to affix these names to these books because they were names of disciples of Jesus.
Close study of these gospels shows that they are just clever copies of each other with each individual writers embellishments to push individual ideologies and agenda's.

People may not be able to conclusively state which human wrote the bible. But what is clearly evidenced is that it is written by Person/persons, Who/who was there at the time the reported events occurred.

And persons named Mark,Matthew,Luke and John or whatsoever names they might have had where with the Person called Jesus Christ.
That is the bottom certain line.

TheMadame:
Interesting take. Thanks a lot.
My conclusion on this issue two years ago before the fanatics took over and tried to derail the thread was that almost every ancient civilisation has this creation stories in one form or the other because mankind always try to explain their etymology.
So it would not be a strange thing if these oral traditions and myths were copied from each other.

Thank you for your take on the issue and the enlightenment. Appreciated.

So as Linda Ikeji, Nairaland, Punch, CNN, Al-Jazeera etc report the same news, therefore they must have copied from someone, does that make sense?

Thomanad:
Everyone saying mind your business, that's how it starts. Remember the OP has male siblings, young boys are in the neighbourhood. Are they safe with someone like that around.
Till he turns all the young boys around to gays.

I disagree with this notion of mind your business at every single turn. Your business that will be my undoing if I'm not careful?

Why won't Isreal and the USA mind it's business and allow Iran build whatever she wants to build
Why won't Russia mind it's business and allow Ukraine join NATO
Why didn't USA mind it's business and allow Venezuela accommodate a Russian base

If I start selling drugs in my street to outsiders everyone should mind their business until their children becomes my customers right?
That seemingly nothing serious, not bad or whatever might become something serious that will affect you one day.

No, it's not every time and about everything that we should mind our business.

Tell them ooo.

This 40 character tire person.

Mcslize:
Will you also call me a gáy, cuz I no longer womanise?

There is no gain in womanising . The fact that you don't see womén with some persons do not indirectly make them gày. You don't know if it's a personal decision.

There are some people that have had their fair share of womén. They are now repented.

I was once a chronic womaniser. God forgive me. But God delivered me from that spirit. And today, I am free. I am no longer addicted to womén, and I am happy about that.

Where I currently live, non of my neighbour has ever seen me with a woman. So, will that make them to think I am gáy? That should be that person's business.

When you've dated more than 20 girls on a roll at a time in the past as a guy, not counting the ones you had one night stand with, you won't be that facinated about womanising but rather, you will pursue absolute sexuál holiness.

A time will come when you will tell yourself, there is no gain in lottering around with different womén. There is absolutely no gain.

I am now as sexually pure as a new born baby. You too can do the same and be free from the spirit of womanising.

There is a difference between you and his neighbour. Even if no one comes to your we all know that you are not gay. But when something is wrong with a person eg gay, my brother we dey see am well well.

And this guy neighbour confirm the sign well well.

Ganjafama:
It would do you a whole lot of good if you learn to mind your business. My motto these days is "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil".

How is this good when this behaviour has rather increased the level of evil people are doing these days eg. More baby girls are getting more defiled by their fathers, children and adults disappearing since no one is looking

And in all these you people cry that there is no security and that the world is not safe. Do you not know that you are part of the security and you are part of making your world safe?

GanagiBitrus:
So his writing his will was waste of time?
You are more knowledgeable than the man & also know his family more than him?

No.

I am just reminding you that there are road blocks against any stranger who thinks that through the wife they can get his booty.

GanagiBitrus:
Without a Will, greedy family members will likely descend on his wealth like pack of wolves & leave nothing for the widow even if she didn't remarry. It would be confusion galore.

Even with this will they are still gonna come for their share

LCling:
As Igbo tradition first son
Control all. The mother if alive or fathers wife if alive only makes sure he is fair enough to other siblings in dealings or shares he allocate them.. all fathers direct personal property of use won't be touched father's house ,car mother will be allowed to use it till her death and those properties are not to be transferred to and other siblings it's either the first sons or first son leaves it as family general home or car etc all on his prerogative.

Thanks to that lady that got the Supreme Court to do the right thing and uphold her right to inherit her father's property, this bad law would one day be killed

drehdinho:
...Saying when she’s married to another man she automatically loses her interest in the estate to me is legally onerous.

My thoughts precisely.

Prima facie, it is in breach of many laws.

However, I hold that she is not entitled to keep the entirety of the estate appropriated either but that a severance package must be provided following her desire to remarry.

GanagiBitrus:
I don't think it's about another man enjoying his wife. Rather it's intended to keep his wealth within the family.
If the wife inherited his wealth & later remarried, the wealth will automatically be lost to Iwuanyanwu's family & possibly become transferred to the new husband.

The man's family won't be sleeping na. They are also interested in the riches, so she cannot go and pass it over to a stranger.

Even if their was no will this is already in force

My own Will is simple.

If I die before her, everything belongs to my wife. It is her who will give anybody any thing as she seems fit

And it is only after her death that the remaining go to our own children.

It's as simple as that

LawWithEbele:
I personally have no issues with the conditions. Most young men consider these young widows as cash cows. They use the marriage card to lure their victims and thereafter quickly move forward after recking irreparable loss. Most people often guard against such by placing such conditions.

Like the husband's family will be sleeping while the gold digger slips in.

NassBoy:
I thank you for your understanding. I'm not too disturbed or worried about her but my son. That little boy needs a father around him

A father is one who answers the needs of his children. You are still struggling to attend to your own needs so you is it now the needs of a baby you would attend to?

Bros, she is doing you good.

Certainly not when the culture of the world dictates that everyone must be rich to have the respect of his family and neighbour

Goosethetruth:
Educate yourself and stop running all over the thread constituting a nuisance.
My last response to you.

Making valid arguments is also a means of education. So if you believe that your position is right then you have a duty to rebut any counter argument.

But you know it would not stand the tests of Truth hence why you are being derogatory

Kobojunkie:
What is the real problem with your life that makes you think it is OK for you to sit as a monitoring spirit over your neighbor? Who do this thing to you?

First, God has made it so that people are made to notice things especially those that are not natural.

Secondly, may you reap the fruits of your "I don't care"

Goosethetruth:
These are myths plagiarised from earlier myths from ancient Babylonian Civilisations that existed long before the Bible was cobbled together. The two creation stories in Genesis chapters 1&2 are written by two different writers...

So because CNN reports Benue murders before NTA, the report is a myth?

Secondly, you admit that the bible was compiled, does that not tell you that it means that they their own report is independent, especially as the report flows from 1,2,3,... different from the Babylon accounts which are even suspected of being created for the purposes of making people like you think the way you are?

Talkisneeded:
We need an appeal team,what’s the essence of banning an account for 20 years without the choice of appealing

I have always raised this issue. Since people are supposed to interact here, therefore conflict must arise. And therefore it must be necessary to have a conflict resolution board (court)

ErebeOcoco:
Christians says the bases of their belief is Jesus's dead and ressurections.

Did these events really happened?

Aside from the Bible, are there any other written or archaeological evidence that Jesus actually died and rose from the dead after three days?

Yes. This is proven by the fact that foreigner (the Romans) used Him to promote their interest.

MrPresident1:
Christianity is not inside the Bible. Who created Christianity? Rome created Christianity. Rome destroyed Jerusalem in 70AD, so how can Rome become the source of truth for the religion of the Bible?

The bible clearly shows that God through Christ, created Christianity, yet you missed it.

.. The creation of the universe itself requires bringing matter and energy into existence.

The creation of any thing requires 2 essential ingredient; A Person and materials (whether it is called matter or atom or whatever)

This is why I don't agree with your definition of a creator because how does intelligence come about outside spacetime and matter?

And this is where you forget that space and time refers to the environment around this house we call world and universe exactly how the Camry in our compounds will call it's garages and Port Harcourt, the universe.

Whereas, we it's creators who live both within and and outside it's universe know that it's universe is larger than Port Harcourt.

And as creators of the camry, we shall first existing before the Camry.

Why?

Because, Creators come before creations.

A lot of people have claimed to see Bigfoot. Do you think that makes it real?

I haven't seen anyone claim so but, the most important fact that is worthy of note is that this world has/had giants of things whether plants, man or animals.

When you tell "people don't sit on that chair, someone is there, and they disobey. Or when someone has sex with your wife
