Christianity EtcRe: Should Science Be The Only Legitimate Guiding Force? by EEngineer1(m): 8:50pm On May 21, 2012
in every organization or unit there must be a head or motive[ driving force] and there would be parts

the reason why there is a dilemna btw science and religion is primarily bcoz of conflicting roles

spirituality should be the real drive behind science, the desire to connect more with the spiritual world and to please the deity, lets take for example, ancient kemet or egypt

did you know that the real motive for such wonderful engineering works and scientific advances in egypt were spiritual, they built pyramids because they were driven to connect to eternity because they believed in immortality, i cant start listing all the wonderful works and inventions the egyptians made, but in ancient egypt u can see a healthy combination of the two and as far as i am concerned that was the greatest scientific campaign of all time, am saying that because many of the achievements done at that time werent surpassed till like 5000 years later,

the pyramid of giza was the tallest building in the world till the mid 20th century, egyptians performed brain surgery and many other wonderful feats, their drive for excellence was as a result of their reverence for their gods

all their ancient manuscripts show a people who neva saw their scientific achievements as scientific but spiritual, the greater their achievement, the greater their reverence for god, can that be said of any modern day nation or society?

now lets compare egypt's scientific campaign with that of our europeans and americans of this industrial revolution, it is clear that we are in a greater age of science and enlightenment but there is one big difference btw this renaissance and that of egypt, we hv become arrogant or shld i say science has become the head and the God, the motive and the spirituality itself has been replaced by science

this was mainly as a result of the conditions before the renaissance, catholic priests and the pope made it somewhat of a taboo to delve into the unknown areas of science claiming it was an attempt to be like God but lo and behold when the europeans finished driving away the moors and took all the wonderful works of knowledge they left behind, they felt free in a way not because they were free but because they had been held back all their lfes and with the enrgy that was used to bar them from the unknown they launched themselves into all forms of knowledge and they systematically lost some respect for their God or shld i say their clergy men

the scientific renaissance of this modern era in reality is just a subconscious ploy to establish man as God, scientists are not looking for God, they believe they are past that, they are looking for the beginning and end of all things without the divine character, thats why so much is being invested in trying to discover human life on mars and other planets jst as if they are trying to debunk all religious creation stories

the reason for this faulty relationship btw modern day religion or spirituality and science is that the former didnt do their role well, the clergy men of medieval europe were corrupt and didnt understand the spiritual injunction they were custodians of but instead they were scared of the unknown and they operated with a strict religious code which put some form of obligation instead of a desire and thirst for the spiritual

THE REAL STANCE ANY SCHOLAR SHOULD TAKE IS THAT OF THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS, WHEN SPIRITUALITY IS THE HEAD OF EVERY SCIENTIFIC CAMPAIGN THEN EXCELLENCE WOULD BE ACHIEVED WITHOUT ARROGANCE, PROGRESS WOULD BE MADE WITHOUT CONFUSION AND THERE WOULD BE HARMONY IN THIS UNIT CALLED HUMAN LIFE BECAUSE THE TRUE AND RIGHTFUL HEAD[SPIRITUALITY] WOULD TAKE ITS PLACE AND SCIENCE WOULD BE ONE OF ITS LIMBS IN THE DRIVE FOR HUMAN PROGRESS

RomanceRe: Why by EEngineer1(m): 5:33pm On May 21, 2012
PLS men dont let the burden of guilt be put on you because of these ladies telling you that you are cheats

pls get it into your head that women cheat as often as men sometimes even more

why is it that all infidelity threads, discussions, complaints are written and started by women? simple answer, infidelity hurts them more

in this world, a man is praised if he can get the most wonderful girls and this tends to fuel the drive to conquer all types of females[ chicks] upon achieving this feat, the natural thing would be to flaunt his game, this makes male infidelity to be difficult to conceal

while women are seen as precious sex and pleasure icons, this makes a certain type of stigma to be placed on cheating women, they are seen as whores and they can go to the farthest extent to conceal their crimes, even if it is known they definitely wont brag about it,

women place more value on relationships, it seems that their ultimate life goal is just to find a healthy relationship where the man wld love unconditionally and they wld be desired [ jst like an ancient babylonian saying ' a womans greatest desire is to be desired']. this makes them to be severely heartbroken when they find out that their man is cheating on them because they have put so much hope into the relationship but they quickly forget that what goes around comes around and that the society which seems to be pullin their man into infidelity was a society that they all were responsible and complicit in building

I WANNA ASK A QUESTION,
IF 90% OF NIGERIAN MEN CHEAT ON THEIR PARTNERS, WHO DO THEY COMMIT THE ACT OF INFIDELITY WITH? IS IT A SELECTION OF FEW WHORES WHO MEN JUST GO TO SPILL THEIR FLUID INTO OR IS IT NOT THE SAME WOMEN WHO COMPLAIN THAT MEN ARE CHEATS, IF MEN ARE CHEATS THEN WOMEN ARE CHEATS TOO, SIMPLE LOGIC

But to tell a child that the world isn't so nice...couldn't that impact on the carefree nature of a child?
[i][/i]

i didnt say telling a child some of the most ugly truths of the world when the child is still young and cant handle it. what u are to do in a situation where the child is still so soft is simply focus on the good things of life in order not to traumatize a child with the painful bitter pill of the truth

but there is a time to tell the truth, do you know when that time is? simple, when curiosity starts getting out of hand, just the same way u know when to urinate according to your feeling of being pressed which in essence is nature's call

when a child is getting curious about something, its simply because the child notices so many things pertaining to it in his/her immediate environment and that is as a result of becoming more mature in comprehending facts, so will a child have the understanding of a language, also have the eyes to watch TV that mummy and daddy provided, have the ears to listen to a conversation and still not have the authority or maturity to accept the conclusion of the matter[ truth]

and another thing u should keep in mind, is that truth is never destructive, it all depends on ones perception, truth is like light that shines ones path, the manner in which u say it will determine the effect on that child

i have so much to say but u have to ask me the right questions

did u get my mail dear kiss

LiteratureRe: Half Truths, White Lies And Purple Unicorns by EEngineer1(m): 7:51pm On May 04, 2012
But doesn’t that depend on the magnitude of the lie?
If white lies are supposedly harmless and therefore has less impact how does that still differ largely from a fabricated tale?
White lies protect ones feelings, imaginations preserves ones innocence so truth is still made redundant but the aim may be considered as noble.

actually, there is no such thing as a white lie, that is what people dont get
the aim may be considered noble but just like every living organism, lies are living things that grow and they definitely want to survive

now what do i mean by " they want to survive" i mean that lies whether white lies or black are part of the darkness of the universe and darkness wants to thrive just like a small spark that seems harmless but burns a forest down

for example, lying to a little child about santa claus might seem noble and necessary but that is just in the short run because in the long run it would be better for one to make this child know the fact that the world isnt so nice, that makes one accept it easier and since it is the truth it will shine like a light on that childs path

literally, lies mean darkness, telling someone what doesnt exist is different from keeping someone away from what is bad, telling someone what doesnt exist might seem expedient but nothing wld be better than knowledge of reality which serves as alight for that person

and lets be honest, we humans are more inclined to self preservation, when we tell a lie or so called white lie it is actually for the express purpose of reducing judgement on ourselves e.g im coming, gimme 5 minutes, traffic is so bad [white lie told inorder to excuse us from wrath]

u can ask more questions,
LiteratureRe: Half Truths, White Lies And Purple Unicorns by EEngineer1(m): 8:35pm On May 03, 2012
@emofine, with ur imagination, are u sure u dont believe in santa claus smiley

the difference btw lies and imagination is in the impact to the livelihood of ur neighbor[fellow human]

PoliticsRe: What Is Africa's Biggest Problem? by EEngineer1(m): 5:46pm On Apr 23, 2012
i have seen everyone's post and i can say that u are all correct in your own way,
but ask yourselves, what is the root of the problem,

its just like seeing an AIDS patient whose immuno system is destroyed and a little sickness like cough or malaria is taking him down to look so emanciated, for the basic mind[layman], if u are to ask him/her what the problem is, he might tell you its cough or malaria and that is true in a way because the present ailment is what will deliver the final blow to the person

but for the educated and enlightened mind, u shld know that the genesis and revelation of that person's problem is the destruction of his/her immune system by the HIV virus

this analogy is similar to africa's problem, the biggest visible ailments plaguing the african country are corruption and tribalism

but in reality the true underlying problem is the destruction of africa's age old political and social system which ensured equal representation for every soul no matter your age or class

in summary, a man[africa] was going about his normal business when another bandit[ europe] came and robbed him with his superior weapons, lied to his infant children about their father to make them feel inferior and destroyed the order in his home and till today that man is still recovering naturally
RomanceRe: Ten Great Things About Dating Older Women by EEngineer1(m): 12:13pm On Apr 22, 2012
justwise: I disagree with you on that, Nigerian men made Nigerian girls what they are today, many Nigerians show off their wealth as a way of chatting up a girl, they feel that spoiling a girl with gifts and money is the only way to gain respect and have their legs over her.

Many of those girls sees it as a norm and it becomes the way of life to some, lets not start bashing Nigerian girls here. Many of these Nigerian men marrying older white women does it for immigration purposes, [b]not for love.
[/b]
If they are marrying older white women because younger Nigerian girls are materialistic and dishonest why don't they marry Nigeria older women then?
who is talking about older white women here, we have middle aged nigerian beauties not fat old white grannies, i'm sure the op was talking about middle aged working class ladies without children

CultureRe: New Member From The Land Of The Ancient People. by EEngineer1(m): 12:29pm On Mar 14, 2012
i have enjoyed this thread from the beginning,
i have many questions for u Ta xasa, but first i would like to clarify some of ur opinions
the kanuri in nigeria are similar to the fulani in the sense that they are united with the hausas in language, customs and religion
they do not differentiate themselves from the hausas, our former military dictator General sani abacha was a kanuri

they also have one thing in common with the fulanis, their looks, they look different from the hausa's and most times are chocolate to fair in complexion, the northerners are generally attracted to the kanuri and fulani women
most of them dont speak their language, they speak hausa and they always answer arabic names like the hausas, names like ibrahim,mohammed, abubakar, abdul etc
they have some local names like galadima, shettima etc
i hope that clarifies things

now to my question, is it true that east africans dont see themselves as africans especially the ethiopians,eritreans and somalians, do east africans suffer from the same complex northern sudanese suffer from and what european language do you eritreans speak, is it italian?
