I'm not really a parent per se but I have been in that position for a while. To be honest, it's no child's play. It is one of the toughest jobs for which you get no salary. Your head could get seriously messed up in a million different ways owing to the demands and pressure. I guess it's good that I'm learning.

Someone said, they are a family so nothing is wrong.

smh

The fact they are family makes it so so wrong. So if there weren't family, that's when it'd be wrong?

smh again

If there weren't a family then I'd see nothing wrong it.

Never deny your baby. At the initial time, tell whom ever that has romantic interest in you that you already have a child. A serious person will continue with you.

If you lie and he discovers later, it will be more devastating and shameful.

I know a couple of single moms who have a retinue of men flocking them even with the knowledge of their children. Just be yourself. Develop your personality. And present yourself well.

Amarabae:
What you know now as IGBOS is the coming together of two people. 1st is the aboriginals called ADAMAs who were bantus and migrated into Nigeria where they settled at Okigwe/Uturu axis, the second people are the ERI Migration from Israel, they fled during the islamic conquest of North Africa/Middle East, Israel tribes were scattered, Lemba people of Ethiopia have the israeli link.
Eri migration into West of Alkebula(now Africa) had them settled at North of Igboland via Omambala River.
The coming together, intermarriage, intertrading, Socialisation etc btw Eri and Adama gave rise to early Igbo settlements.
I will open a thread on this with history resources.


Please do open the thread soon. If you can, point me to literatures to read up. Thank you

Me too. But I guess tradition and custom differs. As an Igbo man, its awkward hearing that the paramount ruler's dad is still alive. However, I respect everyman's tradition in so far as it is not oppressive.

Religion / Re: Man Whose Sister Was Murdered Denounces Jesus (Photo) by elsomm(m): 1:39pm On Mar 05, 2017
9jakohai:


Right... he makes a good point.

OK... The problem with most Christians is that they think that becoming a Christian and following God means no more problems, no more issues. everything is OK.

Well, the early Christians did not have that luxury .A good number of them died for believing in God..... despite all the promises of blessings.

But why does God allow bad things happen to good people?

Recently on BBC, the daughter of a missionaries told her parents story. Her father was a missionary and a good man who died in the course of the job....killed by the idol worshippers he was trying to reach (no offense to my pagan brothers and sisters). What did his wife do? His wife went and took his place.... ministering to the people who killed her husband along with another widow..... and many were converted.... Including the men who killed her husband.

Now... If the woman had given up on the faith, and said that Jesus is a failure for not protecting her husband, would the souls of her husband's killers be saved.

Jesus said that we are the light of the world. Sometimes that means shining when we don't feel like it, when all hope is lost, when we are personally hurt. But we have to shine..... because somewhere among the people who hurt us is a Saul who will bring light to more millions.

Let us talk about saul/paul. He persecuted Christians. He took part in the death of a good man called Stephen. But Saul was converted by Jesus on the road to Damascus. The job was completed by Ananias and Barnabas..... members of the same church that he was prosecuting.Now what if Ananias had said that Jesus failed...since he could not protect Stephen.? What if Barnabas had left the faith? Where would Paul be?

Jesus gave you a mission as Christians.... gave us a mission.... to be a little light in a dark world. It is not comfortable business being a light. You may have to forgive, have to love, have to forget hurts done to you. Because you have a mission as a Christian... to help reconcile an evil world to the Lord. Not to sit back and expect your blessing for doing God a favour by following him.

The problem with the ex Christian the OP quoted is that he was following God for favors. That is not the kind of follower God wants.


Thanks brother...you preached to me. Now I know I have not been a Christian. God help me to make all amends. God bless you bro
