Perhaps a little dig into the history of the Jews will provide an insight into the reason why.

Jesus came around the time of King Herod, who was a representative of the Roman emperor. Rome, through Herod and later, Governors like Pontius Pilate, persecuted the Jews in no small measure. They were executed in their thousands on the premises of religious insubordination. At about the same period, many personalities were popping up all over Israel and the region of Galilee - some as prophets, some as military insurgents - soliciting support, each one parading himself as a messiah to liberate Israel.

As a consequence of this, the presence of Jesus in the region of Galilee at this particular period was shrouded by the chaos, thereby making him unheard of by so most Jews of his generation as he passed as one of the many claimants to the messianic crown.

Also, his crucifixion didn't attract any special attention, because at about that same period about 4000 Jews were executed in Caesarea, 1500 in Antioch - some by crucifixion - for insubordination and other minor offenses.

Therefore, the message of Jesus got to so many people in continental Europe before many of the Jews got to hear about him.

Judaism has always been sufficient for them, to jettison it for a new religion like Christianity is not going be easy, even though the originator was also a Jew.

Twice, I sent parcels through the NIPOST branch in Ado-Ekiti, and both parcels arrived in bad shape. No guarantee that your package is protected.

The staff are also corrupt and exploitative. Especially, that same guy in charge of haulage and courier. He collected double the amount he wrote on the receipt.

You'd better contact Lagos or the National HQ. My advice; next time endeavour to use a private courier company.

Hmmmn i will have to take my time you know

Yeah, please cross-check on the info. I'll be glad to know what you find.

Chances are the queen of sheba must have been a very powerful/famous woman in Africa. its difficult o believe her popularity was all limited to the eastern part of Africa.

The dating of the wall, according to available records, and the dating of the biblical queen of Sheba don't correspond. The wall was built about 1000 C.E, while the biblical queen lived my centuries(about 2000 years) before that. It could have been another queen entirely. Hopefully, experts will work on that very soon.

That's quite impressive, however, the connection to queen Sheba doesn't sound plausible.

Ofcourse that was what God promised them...they hv never be defeated in a war! Gods own people!!! Pls kindly help our brothers fight their problems created by themslf!

You have not been reading your bible.

OP, your problem is mainly psychological, you need to see a psychotherapist, or better still, a psychiatrist. You are a good example of a religious zombie. Free your mind.

@OP, that picture couldn't have been that of true suicide.
The legs are touching the ground.
In true suicide, the legs should be floating. Nobody dies by holding their own breath, so also, she couldn't have died in that comfortable posture.

The empty headed man is screaming "CHANGE" "SAI BUHARI", while the loaded man is full of pity for his friend's future.

Quite expository, but l still won't jump into conclusion, until I am convinced the writer isn't another APC goon drunk on Buhariwine.

Who send am?

Get well soon

I'll rather say, poverty is the cause of corruption.

Before the advent of mechanical clocks, people have been using basic and simple devices and methods in measuring time. Check up the SUNDIALS.

Also, there are evidences that ancient civilizations divided up the day into hours by measuring time against the length of shadows cast by the sun.

Falana might have passed
Odimegwu might have passed
But Oyinlola? What manner of corruption test could that have been?

It is also important to note that a larger percentage of snakes have non-fatal bites.

You ain't seen nothing yet. Just be patient.

Though the head is off already, you can still cry, all the same.

Actually, all babies are born atheists, a clean slate, right before they are indoctrinated by their muslim/christian/ATR parents.
Just to set the record straight!

I'm very much impressed with this statement. A mind opener to a new dimension to argue for atheism. You rock, brother.
