RomanceRe: Would You Marry Or Date A Feminist? by GeneralShepherd(m): 11:30am On Nov 24, 2019
lilwetdick:
you cant treat a partner as equal, sometimes you have to be the man that takes the hard decisions, you also have to be the man that she can relay for emotional support

life is not based on equality but on what you can offer.
Making decisions is indeed the responsibility of the man but I do not believe in rubbing it in. Kindness should be the bedrock of every relationship, my father God bless his soul was a kind father and husband and he fulfilled his responsibilities.

Why marry if you are just gonna do everything your way? Just get a babymama

Nah treating your partner as a surbidinate is awful, its always better to watch a movie with your wife then she refiling the pop corn bawl, its cool to wash plates and cook for your wife and children, its cool to go on vacations and hang out in pool together. You should never ever cheat. That's y I advice people to stay away from marrige life if they can't handle it.
Why you are trying to be a grt dad to ur kids and love ur wife. U ferminist wife is looking for ways to undermine you, she is probably aborting al the male child and saying its miscarage, she is trying to starve u of sex, trying to control u through it, she is sleeping with other dudes cus fetmist don't think a woman belongs to man and she very well sleep with anyman if she wants too and yeah and leave you when the air condition is too cold too.
I agree that feminists are a plagued on the human society. I would neither date or marry one

I would neither date nor marry a feminist, and let's be practical, if we leave social media most men won't. Also most ladies aren't feminists off social media.

The idea of the whole feminists is based on power tussle, always looking for a way to favor their gender.

Call me old school, but I want a submissive partner, not one to struggle power with.

To the ones saying yes, it's your choice sha, but una eye go clear one day when your wife will stop cooking or taking care of the children and say that if she must do it, then you must do it as well.
What am I saying sef?
Anyone preparing to marry a feminist should prepare to do share all the chores equally, and you can only take 50% of decisions. Since your wife is only biological different from you, but you guys are socially equal.
What is so bad in treating your partner as a complimentary equal? I don't understand. Will it kill you to help out at home?

I won't date a feminist but neither will I treat my partner like a subordinate. She is my wife

OP, sorry but I support your father and sister 100%!

If you guys are Christians or enlightened/educated individuals, I am surprised that you still take the osu thing seriously.


What you do not believe has little power over you.
For instance, white men entered shrines and stole the gods and took them to Europe for museum display yet they did not die.
Well they died because everyone dies
Christianity EtcRe: Why Some Are Scared of Becoming Born Again Christians Or Going To Heaven by GeneralShepherd(m):
I personally feel that the concept of Christianity in NIGERIA is built on fear and taking advantage of this fear.

1. Fear of poverty
2. Fear of he'll
3. Fear of witches
4. Fear of demons

At some point this message wears old on people.

I believe in a message of finding a relationship with God and the ultimate meaning of my existence that is why I believe and choose yo walk this path.

Nigerian pastors should focus on a better message
Christianity EtcRe: 7 Question every Atheist Should Answer by GeneralShepherd(m): 8:34am On Nov 24, 2019
ElidaxZiel:
My question for you is simple,. First of all,. The reason you become atheist in the first place ,. Is it still there or you t just overlook and choose Christian

Secondly ,. Seun has always be saying , can God heal amputees,. Now I will like to know why science has always use iron to support amputee, instead of creating the bone itself and probably why should we be donating blood instead of creating the blood


Christain believe God by Faith not by experiment, why should atheist ask for prove, it ridiculous

Most of the questions you ask are just wrongly answered, you don't have understanding about your Own existence a

I ask those questions because atheist in general believe God doesn't have anything to do with creation,

Hence they keep looking for cheap answer to support and make themselves feel right

Infact big bang is Not correct but we all believe it even with no experiment, which mean s anyone disbelieving in God , is only deceiving himself
What kind of argument is this? Science is not atheism and atheism is not science it is just a disbelief in God.

Science has never claimed to be supernatural as per amputee question

Christianity EtcRe: Theists This Is For You by GeneralShepherd(m): 6:23am On Nov 24, 2019
Lonelypacifist6:
Why do theists think we atheist have no morals?The theist principles is based on Morals and logic, We act on these principles because we know there'll be consequences of our moral or immoral actions. We Kill or condemn people who are not in tangent with our views,We Try to convince them to. We don't Mumble to a non existent person when we're sick, We complain to the doctor. Atheists are Majorly considerate people,We don't deny people their basic rights because They're not of the same opinion as ours we actually believe In the human rights, When theists see demons at sleep, Atheist see Sleep paralysis. Where you see a gecko as an enemy, we see It as an insect control animal. We also don't obtain under false pretence, ie bring money lemme intercede on your behalf, Atheist also enjoy some semblance of freedom outside the religious doctrine, that puts a restriction on things we Should eat, and keep as pets. We also are very inquisitive people and question everything. We don't believe everything hook line and sinker. We read Alot we're actually not limited to one book grin

Marry an Atheist,it's intelligent.


Thanks for your time.
How about you speak for yourself as an atheist. An atheist is just someone who rejects God no more no less.

If you decide to speak for everyone, don't be offended when we paint all atheists in the brush as a belief system with a dogma and doctrine

BlackHummer:
LordReed shey the image attached is doctored abi? This was caught live somewhere during a rivival program in one of the African countries but again you are free to doubt. It is the manifestation of the holy spirit similar to what happened on the day of pentecost in the book of acts in the bible

@LoverofLove attached is proof that spiritual things could be captured. I have doubts on somethings the op mentioned but it does not mean i should not do a research like the berian christians. With all due respect, i think you are the one causing problems by your lack of wisdom. Defend the truth at all cost and ignore things you don't understand. I have seen alot of comments affirming what the OP said, so i think you are the one who is counterproductive

@TVSA keep doubting oooo

@ Danxplore, good work but, the only problem i have with you is that you are saying deep facts that will create doubts even in the mind of the average christian...lol
Hahahaha Hahaha stop making more atheists with your posts. A more intelligent discussion on the meaning of life is more likely to convince someone of existence of God rather than an obviously photoshopped image.

Are you serious or trolling? You can't possible be serious

Wehdone oga atheist. Go and read about the atheist woman in China that saw the light and have been apologising for misleading people all her life.
"And on the last days, many will ask; Where is the end since the days of our forefathers and that is the sign of the end time". Let it not be in your grave you'll cry out for repentance.
Joshua Selman, I've never met him in person before but his messages are up to 60 on my phone.
Do you understand the difference between an objective and a subjective experience? Also any reference to the Chinese woman story or just another lie?

DanXplore:
Athiests and Amputee related defences are like five and six. You are an athiest, and might not understanding the mysteries of the anointing so talking about it might sound like jargons. But note that amputees do not need healing, they require creation of entirely new parts. only few people have sustained enough capacity to wield God's power to create.
But this thread is for people who want to clear their doubts as to the existence of divinity. I mentioned you so u could check out those links with the hope that u visit koinonia
Bullshit this kind of nonsense made me an atheist, thank God I'm back to Christianity. However I an still allergic to stupidity

mansakhalifa:
STFU, and you think I have never ventured out of this continent, slowpokehuh I've got whole family living in Europe. Germany and England to be precise. I won't say much. Some of my family members are of mixed parentage and it goes back decades.

But that is not enough reason to loathe or be disgusted with my own very home or my race. You need your brain reconfigured if you think I would simply change my stance simply because I took a mere trip out of this part of the world. I remain proud, no matter what and I always identify as African anywhere. Bleep what you or any other slowpoke thinks.

Had to react that way because I hate inferior retards. And yes, I was pained. Pained because I am forced to share this continent with your inferior ilk. Not even the white folks would want your kind. Trust me.

***and just who fed you that garbage that Africans are incapable of governing themselves? Same fellow-dunce who told you that your ancetors was living atop a tree branches prior to the coming of the 'whites'huh Lol... you need real education, hombre. Trust me. Apologies for being too harsh but then...
I will like us to take Nigeria as a case study so you can enlighten me how Nigeria can govern herself.

1. Elections
2. Infrastructure
3. Security
4. Education
5. Cleanliness

Show me one western country that Nigeria rivals in any of these indices. A Democratic country that cannot organise elections by definition cannot govern herself. Let's stop bring emotional and be honest with ourselves. Just maybe we might improve

Christianity EtcRe: 7 Question every Atheist Should Answer by GeneralShepherd(m): 4:34am On Nov 24, 2019
ElidaxZiel:
The Atheist has always find a way to insult the religious by calling them ignorance,
Due to their doctrine or belief, which they hold on to
As a former atheist , I want to address your points . Atheism has no doctrine or belief, it is just a rejection of the belief that God exists


ElidaxZiel:
The Atheist are so ridiculous, By asking for a physical prove of a spirit being,
Atheists are correct in asking any proof they want it is their right. You can either answer or not.

ElidaxZiel:
But anyways if still hold to atheist, I will like you to answer the ques

1. What triggers big bang
Well no one knows... As a Christian I know that for everything to start there must be a source who in itself transcends time and space otherwise we will be stuck in a infinite regressive loop of what started what. I believe that that original source is God

Most atheists say they do not know.(I don't speak for all of them as atheism has no central creed)

ElidaxZiel:
2. Why can't science create natural material such as human blood, instead of donating or Culturing from existing cell
I fail to see the relevance of these questions. Theists or atheists or even scientists cannot create anything. Because energy can neither be created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another. No one really creates anything


ElidaxZiel:
3 . Why do atheist believe soul exist even with no prove
Again I do not speak for all atheists, they may be some who believe in souls. Most atheists that I have come across believe in a strictly material universe and most reject every notion of a supernatural metaphysical alternate reality


ElidaxZiel:
4. How do we see in the dream, even when our eye are close, any scientific explanation ??
Scientifically there is an explanation, I am no expert but again it can be summarised as such,

When you sleep your brain continues to function as you are not dead as your brain generates those realities that you tag as a dream.



ElidaxZiel:
5. Where did the material they form Earth and Rock comes from before big bang
The big bang was a condensed singularity that contained every thing in the universe. Matter organic and inorganic came from this dense point.

I as a Christian believe everything came from God

ElidaxZiel:
6. What is origin of the Spirit beings,. D
I am yet to see atheists that believe in spirits . They may exists as again atheism is just the rejection of God but I'm yet to see

ElidaxZiel:
7. Why do you think you are alive,. To study gravational laws ?? Or study chemistry ??
Finally one intelligent question! What is the meaning of life. Well this is why I rejected atheism because atheism as a worldview will naturally lead to nihilism where nothing really means anything.

Given that humans have always strived to build a better world for their next generation , I fail to see why any one will bother with any of this if nothing means anything in the end.

Concepts like positive nihilism or ascribing subjective meaning of life were offered but they all fail as a subjective meaning is still meaningless in the grand scheme of things. Christianity seemed to offer me a more consisted and valid meaning of life.

ElidaxZiel:
If you can get all these questions, then it mean you know what you are doing and probably Right that, God doesn't exist
But

If you don't have answer to this question,. Then it mean something Is above your intelligent and logic

That thing which is beyond your intelligent is what is Call the Origin

The Origin is a Palace , occupied by a Supreme Being

That Supreme Being is the one Known as t GOD

So

Atheist is really at loss because whether you believe or not HE EXIST

You are only living a life of self deceit ,
I struggled to follow your logic and argument even as a Christian. Take your time out to explore other worldviews including atheism with an open mind, then make you decision what feels best to you.

I begrudge no man, whatever floats your boat is fine with me. I have chosen Christianity as it gives me peace

Lagos still experiences the same problem that has been identified over 41 years ago. Keep believing that Nigeria will flourish again .

2. Same road networks in a worse state
3. No plan to decongest Lagos by developing other cities

That being said if I was your Boo, if I find out later that you lied on something this significant , I will never ever ever trust you.

Best option is come clean, you didn't cheat unless you already lied you didn't see someone else during the break in that case we have to refer the case to the council of elders

Duggedised12:
That is a good perspective to put it. Most men will actually blut it out the way i said,its good to know there is a not too negative reason to it.
I believe that I have become westernized as I see no problems with cooking , cleaning or generally being a decent human being .

I believe that even though a man is the head of the family , marriage is a partnership. It's not a slave deal and should not be transactional.

Another key point to consider is that if you marry a Nigerian as an immigrant your partner will support you every time you wish to travel home as she probably has family back home as well that she will want to visit.

On the other hand , it will be hard justifying travelling home often (considering the cost) to someone who has nothing to gain in visiting Nigeria. An average oyibo girl or a black girl that was raised in a western country understandably would rather spend that money visiting well organised holiday locations like Jamaica, Maldives etc.

I couldn't be bothered by inability to cook our local food as I am a good cook.

Whereas, we have had Christians who have

-bombed abortion clinics
-banned atheists from speaking
-shot up a mosque with assault rifles
I meant militant only in verbal or written belligerence

My 2 cents as a former atheist . Atheists come in all shapes and forms. Some are militantly against organised religion as they believe people are disillusioned while others are polite.

It is important to note that atheism is not an organised religion. And so one atheists action cannot be used to paint the whole group
