Yes, and I jumped in to clarify that protection isn't the goal of covering up and that men don't dictate how women cover up. I am not discussing whether covering up makes u immune to assaults or what I think ppl should wear because of course you aren't immune to assaults bcus you're covered and people can't be forced to wear more/less than they please. Thought that goes without saying..
Ok, then.

of course the british empire was also roman. geezz you need to pick up a book http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Britain
Jeez, what did they teach you in school?

The Romans ruled Britain from 43 to 409.

The British Empire emerged in the late 16th century.

The Roman Empire and the British Empire are two totally different phases in human history.

PLEAAAAASE! Get your facts right.

Okay, you are not following what I'm saying, so let me break it down. My post was explaining that ppl don't cover up because 1) men tell them to and 2) to protect themselves from rape etc.
This was part of the discussion into which you decided to jump in.
People were saying that women are se*xually assaulted because their clothes provoke men and this is why I asked if perverts should dictate women what they should wear.

you need to read some more. the roman empire is very much around. they have been through different phases. first off around 193 AD a black general from the interiors of africa came with his army and conquered them. his name is septemius severus. this ushered in what is known as the holy roman empire. during this era the empire was dominated by black men. some call it the dark ages or the second temple or byzantine. then the fall of the holy roman empire came around 1300 or so and the caucasians took power again in what is known as the european rennaisance. it was during this period that they started exploring the world and disovered america and added it to their empire. so the roman empire did not go anywhere. it is called the eurozone and usa today. the empire itself proliferated into several european nations and three of these nations annexed america ( french spain and britain )
I have rarely read so much nonsense, sorry.
Was the British Empire also Roman? grin
And you still do not know more than four Empires?

Where have I said that others need to behave or act accordingly to my beliefs? I'm just explaining the reasons behind why Muslim people (and Christians) cover up. Whether you do and how u feel is up to you. None of my business
Has anyone said that people are not allowed to cover up due to religious beliefs or for other reasons?
FamilyRe: How The West Corrodes Our Morality by ELLYsian: 2:04pm On Oct 26, 2014

Firstly, it's not perverted men who dictate what women wear. Men also (at least in Islam) have to cover up. besides covering up isn't limited to clothing but also behaviour.
secondly, the purpose of covering up is not to protect us from perverts

It's to obey and please our lord.
Is everyone a Christian or a Muslim?
Does everyone have to share your religious convictions?
Do you want to impose your beliefs on everyone?
Does anyone have a right to tell people which religion they must follow?

the roman empire did not fall. it proliferated into the eurozone and usa. these are all the roman empire. this is why all the buildings in these countries are built like the ancient roman buildings and why their sports arenas are built like the romans coliseums and why they use the roman numeral. they are the roman empire but are calling themselves different names now. are you saying all the humans from the roman empire disappeared from the earth ? try to get some understanding. its like how kwara state broke into kogi and whatever state it broke into ( am not familiar with nigerian states )
Yes, they died long ago.

The Roman Empire fell. All historians agree on that.

Again, you know only four Empires in human history?

The west has a more transparent and functional government and agencies. And that's all.
It has more than that.

But the west is far from morally sound. We are talking about the west whose children are disrespectful to their teachers and parents because they can't be disciplined statutorily. And despite the aboundance of wealth, they have kid murderers, kid drugist and all.
There are disrespectful and criminal children everywhere.



We are talking about the west whose religion is individualism and science.
I guess you are not aware of the fact that most people in Western countries are Christians.


The west which as brought the male and female to see themselves as competing for supremacy.
This is what Nigerians do, not Westerners.
They have better things to do than to discuss submission every day. They have moved past that stage a long time ago.


It has spilled to Nigeria, and in nairaland no issue of any of the sexes is discussed wothout it morphing into a gender war.
Like this one.
Nigerians are never responsible, it is always the "evil" West.
Yet, they will gladly accept their financial and medical aid.


The west that has brought and campaigned for homosexuality and lesbianism to be a norm and acceptable code of public behavoiur.
A topic for another day.


The west which as developed a modern IVF where a child can have 3 biological parents. Confusion...confusion.
I have never heard of a child in the West that has three biological parents.


The west who a times place more value and rights on animal pets than on human lives....teach me morality, quoter.
Says who?


The jews have been with the west for thousands of years, but they kept their morality and culture different from the culture-less west. The jews copied the technology of the west and becoming the masters wothout selling off their culture.
I guess you have never heard of American or European Jews, right?
Since when is religion a nationality?



The imposing of western culture accross the globe is top of their agenda. And they target the most weak and gullible especially in africa, that's why Ghana had not been able to pass her anti-gay laws.
The more advanced people lead, deal with it or develop power to be the leaders.

Tell your africa that we need to have either our own language and culture very distinct from the west or else, we shall remain mind slaves forever.
Why are you using English then?
Does the West prevent you from speaking your local language?

its like this, there are four beasts. its the history of the world allegorically written. the first beast is the babylonian empire. the second beast is the medopersian empire. the third beast is the greek empire and the fourth beast is the roman empire. we are currently under the rulership of the fourth beast which is the caucasian empire aka roman empire. you think it is mere coincidence that the white man is ruling the world ? its his turn. he is the fourth beast. empires come and empires go. they are called beasts.
We are under what rule NOW? The Roman Empire?
The Roman Empire fell in the 4th - 5th century.

And you can only think of four Empires in human history?

Like seriously?

FamilyRe: Does Watching Violence On TV Create A More Violent Child? by ELLYsian: 1:25pm On Oct 26, 2014
Danhumprey:
Not all kids are inclined to be violent. There are kids that have watched all the violent films and played all violent video games that have been produced so far,yet when you examined them,you will be surprised to find little or no violent tendency in them. Parental upbringing and guidance have a huge role to play here. The strict family atmosphere do have a neutralising capability of erasing violent tendencies from kids.
Violent movies and video games can influence kids in different ways. Some will become aggressive, others will become anxious.
Research shows that watching violence changes the brain. There is no need for kids to watch violent movies or to play violent games.

ok let me first enlighten you. beasts in the bible are empires. the roman empire is the caucasian empire. aka the fourth beast.
This is YOUR interpretation of the Bible.

FamilyRe: Does Watching Violence On TV Create A More Violent Child? by ELLYsian: 12:56pm On Oct 26, 2014
Violent movies and video games do have negative effects on children and teenagers.
Not all kids and teenagers who watch violent movies become violent themselves because it also depends on a child's natural temper if he or she is more or less inclined to aggressiveness. However, violent movies and video games affect every child in one way or another and always negatively.

Why am i not surprised!! Every evil in this end time era has a logical excuse.

Ok, we were unclad when the west came in the 17th and 18th centuries. They brought us clothes and taught us to be covered in the streets and in public. It has been the norm since over 100 years. For my grandmother and grandfather were well covered as i can remeber.

Beginning from the early 80's a new kind of nudity started creeping in in the form of tights, leggings but worn with a top that extended to the knees or laps. No one dared put on leggins with a top hanging on the wasit line or revealing the belly button. This wasn't african, it was western. Western movies and dressings were beginning to become mainstream in africa at that time with the rise of cenima.

Fast-forward to today and it is a cleavage war, butt divider completion, cameltoe display. The mystery of women is completely lost.

Nothing our primitive mothers wore reveal there butt-divider, or the exact nature and shape of their most feminine organ. Neither did when they walked their whole butts shaked and moved in the rhythm of their steps.

Today's females copy the west and have even outdone them in the madness of modernity. Yes dressing in leggings and skimpy tops is 100% western and most women who wear this are completely naked because there's nothing lost to sight except their skin colour.

Today's women with their knowledge and intelligence lack the wisdom our primitive mothers had in abundance. That is the wisdom of how the testosterone male function.
He functions more by sight....so when the op was drawing a line between rapists and indecent dressing, he actually has a point. It's same way women react to words more than men, so even a low courtesan still blushes when you tell her she has the most beautiful eyes in the whole of the joint.Western Culture is crappy crap, only a fool will think otherwise. Copy their technology and leave the culture alone. That's what China did, and other asian economies. We want to take everything, hoke, line and all.

They bought christianity to us and now they are telling us to accept homosexuality in our churches, and that the bible is one big joke.

So what are we waiting for? After all Christianity isn't african. Lousy puppet of african slave minds. Think for youtselves.
I guess you are not aware of the fact that the West is morally better developed than Nigeria.
Nigeria is famous for being morally crooked.

Stop blaming the West. This victim mentality won't solve any of the problems the country has.

Protecting them from Knowledge? A teacher using violence has little to teach a child!

The countries with the highest levels of education are those where physical punishment in schools is illegal. (As would be expected!)

The thread is now becoming pointless. Those in favour of such abuse are unlikely to be convinced otherwise anyway. Progress does not happen everywhere at the same rate sadly.

Much of it is wounded pride that other have a better way of doing things. {personalities always inhibit progress}.
Exactly.

You now came on NL to congratulate yourself, so that razz people like yourself will give you a pat on the back.

People who can afford big weddings are people who have money. Rich people are more likely to divorce because they can afford it.
I think that it is not the wedding that has an impact on the success of the marriage but rather money, which makes divorce easier.

The more money we come across, the more ...
