Capitalist thugs used as frontiers by utterly corrupt politicians. Our problem in this country is just too complex.

Guyman02:
They are sore losers, it's difficult for them to understand how Igbos keep flourishing under this Govt which they helped in bringing to power that has failed and brought untold hardship to many Yoruba households,
they have been carrying out smear campaigns against Igbos at every opportunity, Abike Dabiri will name names if Igbos are involved but will use numbers if Yorubas are involved in crimes abroad.

Every big business in Nigeria is involved in Round Tripping including Dangote if you listen to Emir Sanusi but they will only snitch on Igbos and not Otedola, Adenuga, Dangote etc

Here comes the fuckening of the intelligent thread.
House, please pay no attention to this fuckstard retard. People here are contributing intelligibly. You are here trying to turn it into ethnic war. Does onyeama even know you exist? What has he done for you to turn is media PR. Who doesn't know most of them billionaires in this clime are crooks. But because he is from your side now, it is witch hunting now abi? All of them get their own pay day, so chillax their days of reckoning are coming too.Shay

franchasng:
That was how Otedola went into exile too in Ghana when Yaradua was in power and EFCC was on his trail for debts running into billions....Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan came into power and saved him from going into extinction like Jimoh Ibrahim by waiving off his huge debts and told him to come back to Nigeria and continue his business....yet Yorubas hate Goodluck with passion.


One day, one brave, no-nonsense President will rise, and Dangote's dirty book will be widely opened, and the whole world will know how much of Nigerians' commonwealth he is using to answer billionaire and richest man in Africa without any ingenuity or meaningful invention aside importing cement, and from importing cement he suppressed every other big cement importers like Ibeto to become the richest man in Africa with investment in all fields of life, time will tell

I want them all investigated, whether Yoruba, Hausa, Ibo. I want their source of wealth thoroughly investigated. They are all crooks , am not hating tho. I don't care, if I share any ethnic affiliation with anyone of them. They have bled this country dry and we are feeling the brunt of it. My headache is your lots having to spin the ethnic sentiments up each time issues like this comes up.

I am sorry, but I have to say I live with sentimental foolish Nigerians. Simple discussion will turn to ethnic bashing, not without use of cursive words. It's very difficult to start a debate with a Nigerian. It will degenerate to an argument and snowball into a cussing contest. Few sensible ones are rarely met who put aside any form of ethnic sentiment either with or against them

Ya think na the music you sabi but unfortunately, you don't even sabi the music.
After seeing Burna suddenly sky rocketing like a shooting star, here he is, thinking a manager is the problem while the absence of a music talent in the first place is the problem.

What about the time he spent washing Drake's car every morning? All became a waste because his monotonous music talent couldn't earn him any favour from Drake apart from cleaning the studio.

I'd have expected him to stick to displaying his strippers at the back of vans and thank his star for making him blow in music with the absence of a musical talent rather than thinking he needs a manager, because in reality he should still be in the studio running errands for some upcoming artistes.

Hmmmm.

Op, I feel sorry about your experience.
But seriously, this is just not worth it....5minutes or highest 15minutes of pre-marital sex.

Please, I will advise you to get back to your maker, go on your kneels on the platform of mercy and seek forgiveness.

Go to any Winners Chapel (Living Faith Church) around and get committed. Trust me, things will turn around for you like a dream.
Don't let anyone make you turn down this advice I've given you here.

It's well.

Shay ode leleyi ni. Winners na hospital? Naso ur lots dey complicate issues. Op, this might be syphillis. If your tests does not include this, you should go for one.

Greatest book of? You see, this is one of our problems in Africa. Thinking everything that happens on earth has been prophesied by someone and written in a book. Of course you are entitled to your religious sentiments but leave it out of issues like this.

No mind am, we can all the article too a prophecy na. bolo spewing bollocks

Yes but when moses parted the red sea was when they went back home.

Before then, they were living like Kings in Egypt. They were involved in trade and development.

Who do you think had the native intelligence to develop the pyramids?

Why does the sphinx resemble the Ekuke Which reincarnated as Jack in Abia state recently?

Think.

why do you people enjoy being the victim, why do you love to let emotional sentiments blind your sense of reasoning. why? No one is hating you people, why then are you always paranoid about almost everything and in the process you expose your insecurities. why for heavensake? I just want to believe it is your lots on this forum only, not the ones I interact with outside this forum. people being killed over there are not only Nigerians, but Mozambican, Zimbabwean, Somalians and the rest, everyone of these nationalities are raising their voice to condemn this act, yet all you people care to do is to spin it around on ethnic sentiments of the president. why can't you see beyond unnecessary tribalism, because someone somewhere has romanced your emotional spot, you have been aroused to jump into conclusion. why is this happening to you people for crying out loud, this is not the same set of igbos I relate with outside this forum, why are your lot so so different. I swear, it pains me to read comments like this on a public forum, I cry within me to see the way humans reason, Africans reason. why on a public forum! instead of we to lend a common voice to stop this actions and also those happening at our corridor here in Nigeria, we choose to engage in senseless and stupid tribalism that will take us no where, we find joy in yabbing each other's ethnic identity and we shout black power, Africans must be free and blah blah blah. rubbish. shame on you people of both ethnic group. shame on you for being too emotional. shame on you for hating your brothers.

You say the president is slow to act because it concerns Igbo's, are those people in the north killed on daily basis Igbo's too, are they all Christans too like someone pointed out. the president went to Japan last week and in his hometown scores of people were killed on the same day, Reno tweeted nothing and you people didn't say a thing. why now? are there no Yoruba's, hausas and other nationalities among those killed and property looted in the SA? are they not human beings?

when we are divided amongst ourselves, it is easy for the enemy to see us as easy target

abrojunior94:
Do you know why SA can confidently do the sh*t they do, it's because they've seen a country so divided among themselves internally that they can barely stay united and speak with one voice against foreign attacks.

And to think some retards here on nairaland are saying the Nigerians there are just from a particular tribe, shows how low we've gone as a country. As a matter of fact, Nigeria can no longer be called a country if a fellow countryman can say sh*t about his own countryman in the full view of other nationals.

Nigeria will continue to be volatile to foreign attacks in other countries if we continue to be disunited. The world is watching, let the retards, tribalists and olodos take note of that

a da fun e Iwo eni yi. wa ri bati se, means e go better for you x1000000000000000. what you typed up there is filled with pure wisdom.

he prolly might be an autistic kid with ADHD syndrome. but there's absolutely nothing wrong with him, let him live in his own wprld , but always make sure he is always responsible for himself, to take charge of himself, you can do this by constantly reminding him to always look out for himself. you can do this by helping out sometimes and also allowing him to do things on his own without interference, always know when to come, do not ever intrude when you shouldn't. you will only complicate things. when he needs your help, he may or may not beckon on you depending on your relationship. find out what he's good at. might wild guess might be anything arts like painting or drawing and also he might be good at fiddling with gadgets. allow him to daydream, it is will boost his creative power, you can to do this by joining him on sessions like this in solitude without speaking to each other, but only occasionally asking him lovingly and playfully asking him questions that will prod him like " so what's up, what are you up to. fill me, I want to know what songs, what painting, what gimmick you intend to build maybe I can be of help" Always try as much as possible to experience what its like being in his world, then you will crack open where his line of interest lies, and always ask questions that will pique him in what he loves. also go on vacation together, somewhere fun, go to clinics and other places that require a lit bit of lending service, this will stir in him a sense of responsibility to help with his gift. Introduce him to your culture and speak your language to him more often. tell him about great things about your culture, read exciting story books at bedtime or free time. story books may be in areas of his interest too, he will surely get excited, trust me. beating and shouting will only compound the problem and will eventually shut you out of his life, with future breakdown in communication. do not do this! I repeat, do not do this! in worst case scenario, the beating and shouting might morph him into a being you may later regret, a narcist with bad tendencies, this is depending how he can cope with the psychological and physical abuse ( not every child , can come out to be something good from the psychological trauma they faced as a child) it will hamper his self esteem greatly and damage his creativity giving him split personalities. Always know that raising child is the most complicated task in the world, one simple mistake can disorganize the whole setup.


I never had that kind of dad and it still pains me till today, me and my dad would have become the greatest combo ever, I still remember when I was small I was so close to him, but along the line. I don't know what went wrong. but I figured out religion, and always wanting the best "in his own view" wrecked the relationship. I never got the chance to choose, it is either his way or you are not his child. I had an eccentric and overzealous father, Although, his dad died when he was small, but managed to get educated, so he always says it is a must we must be educated. the zeal played out on us by insisting we must be educated, although it helped but it sucked out my energy, because I learnt under duress, was in so much psychological stress that it damaged my creative and social abilities, I was a loner throughout my growing up years, I had friends and fun, but in the end I was still lonely, all because I had a father who his always hell bent on forcing his way of life down my throat. if you fail, you are in soup. the abuse will wreck you in all spheres. my junior brother was the hardest hit. I am lucky, my stubbornness saved me a little. but unfortunately, it wasn't so for my junior bro. he loves drawing and very good in practical works, but a insistent father will not . I always want a change of environment for him to save him from his misery. sometimes, when I beat my kids too, I always feel guilty, because I am inherently transferring the aggression of my child hood to them. so I made sure I develop a bond with them. we play a lot. we eat together, we go out together. all because I don't want to be a sadist father who will take out the revenge on his kids, no. The cycle will just go on and on.
so take your time with your Son. he's gifted, but you don't know. I am telling you this today, because I was once in his shoes.

Maximus69:
Instead of such illustration, why not make it real by using creatures that aren't existing with instinct{human}?

Praying is synonymous with humans who knew that they'll be held accountable for whatever they do whether good or bad.

Security dogs are tamed beasts trained to protect their owners, but because this creatures live on instinct the owners must always feed them at the appropriate time so they don't get hungry and return to their normal WILD life
If they're exposed to such condition, they may even hunt the one they're trained to protect!

So why on earth would any reasonable intellectual think of making a stupid illustration about such creatures when they can't think of storing food apart from going for food when they're hungry?

No carnivore hunt for fun or storage, they hurt due to hunger.
Humans do all sorts of things to provide not only for today{Matthew 6:11} but for times that they're not certain they can still be alive, they call it FUTURE?

Please atheists, it's not a crime to enlighten others if there's a need to. But it's presumptuous trying to make others look stupid when you yourselves don't have enough discerning spirit to outwit others!

God asked humans to pray because our lasting bliss doesn't depend on how much material things we possess. Animals are contented if they're able to eat, sleep and mate but humans desires far much more than that!

I don't trade banters nor do I do insults on social media, but I can't resist the urge to insult your ignorance. i will be further dismayed if the OP decided further any discussion, he should have referred you to google instead, just to save him from unnecessary back and forth typing all in the name of argument and also to save you from further display of intellectual laziness. I will not respond further to your post. thank you

That's if the cancer hasn't mestatised to other part of the body. Good development tho

How many were killed in Nigeria where bearing arms is illegal??

In a country were arms are legal have only 249 killings, lets count how many killed in a country where arms are illegal.

While I condem the killing and also admit US has problem and are playing politics over arms control, I would still commend them for quick response

oga, quick response will not prevent another mass gun shooting. it will happen again and again. forget about the paraphernalia you see on those soldiers, forget about the paparazzi of the social media telling about law enforcement agent quick response. victims of US gun shooting always comes in dozen, that's why they use the term mass shooting always. Do you know how many people get missing in US daily. do you know how many people are being killed through gun violence and gang related attacks daily. because they live in a structured society has make you loose sense of judgement and rather, you emotionally rushed to comment and compare you them with ours. we can solve our own problem too if we look inward. most of our problem too you know comes from heavy western infiltration by moles planted among us, they made us this way whether you accept or not! the only fault of ours is our inability to break free from their strong hold, unfortunately, we are mentally weak to do so, we have been perfectly coerced to be emotional support of any of their cause, leaving our own behind. we lack love amongst ourselves. we will rather badmouth our own and support theirs. To us they are everything perfect, but we are everything wrong to ourselves. you might compare their situation with ours, but always be careful what you wish for

kiyosaki1:
We need more deep thinkers like the author of this beautifully crafted epistle. Most people that are crucifying the pastor , are either inept , jealousy of his success or non Christians that always on the look out for negative news about Christians leaders to convince themselves and others that their religion is superior to christianity.

The pastor set the train of events in motion. It's even more deeper than that sef.

it's a lie, you didn't cry.

we to deal with the issue of exploitation, revenge and blackmail , that to me might be the motive of this whole issue coming to light on both sides are two People who should be held accountable for serious moral issues of their conduct, although one is weightier than the other, Judging by the post mister tototoyinbo has a person who should uphold moral discipline by virtue of his religion. I know the coital relationship that exists between them was consensual. Although, we have to really look into their first encounter to conclude if it was a rape or not. but the ongoing sexual escapades after the first encounter does not count as rape to me, only if she was bound in captivity and forcefully raped by her Captive. she had the freewill to report to any authority or someone she can confide in to take it up, and we Prolly won't hear of mister totoyinbo today. this implies that there exist a relationship between them for a short while till the Stockholm syndrome wear off. by all in all. Two wrongs don't make a right.

johnydon22:
Not really artificial selection, artificial selection deals with an external selection agent.

Natural selection is inherent.

So, if organisms are inherently designed to by themselves adapt, evolve to survive then it is as much natural as they are designed to grow.

Moreover, argument of design encompasses that nature itself is a designed model.

makes perfect sense, if we are to consider recent developments in AI technology. a design must not always be dependant on an ID for evolution, survival and adaptation. if humans can strive to seek for perfection in creating a system like AI for adaptation and self dependency of a system with little or no interference from the creator, isn't the same. logically plausible for an ID. This is no way an argument for the existence of a creator God according to the gospel according to religion

hakeem4:
In my opinion I think the reason why people believe in god is probably the way we evolved. It deals with the way the human mind is. We natural seek answers for things we cannot answer like “where did we come from”, “where are we going”. The human mind is very good at imagination, that was how we imagine different faces in sky. We are just good at recognising patterns. Using our common sense to deduct answers all made sense Before science came.

Now that children become indoctrinated with different religious myth from birth, it becomes difficult for them to accept how the universe works without the need of a creator.

We humans did not evolve to think or understand quantum mechanics, we evolved to survive that’s why it is easy for people to believe this religious myths than to think deeply.


So what’s your opinion on why we have people who believe in god

[sup][/sup]

what if human imagination are not just there for imagination sake, what if they are kind of a template, a rubic cube for us to unravel. what if we yet to lead the anchor down to the deepest trench of our imaginations to find the answers

johnydon22:
So, if i change every part except 1 it's not a new ship then?

Since it's not completely replaced?

That is according to your your subjective opinion, but what stands here is a ship will always remain a ship, except If in general terms, a ship has never or does not exist,. be that as it may, if you replace all but one part with the same set of spare, it is still the same ship, it is now up to you to name it Johnnydon's ship if you wish.

johnydon22:
at one point in this process of stripping it down did it cease to be the old ship and become a new one?

Because, If you change your car tyres, it's still the same car, if you change the engine even.

So, tell me, which point that replacing parts make something not be what it was before.

the keyword I used is "Completely". if a part is changed by a spare, of course, it's still the same car.

vaxx:
obviously, realities is ambiguous in this context. Unless you provide a definition of the kind of reality you mean.

y
By realities, I mean cause - effect, Action - Reaction

budaatum:
No vaxx. I'm not accepting this throw the kitchen sink approach of yours! The "problem of identity over time" was dealt with in one of Johnydon22 wonderful threads where we discussed he and my Lordreed changing bodies, and whether a ship that had all it's parts changed was the same ship it was before. They might remind me what what the thread was called so you can read it.

The "problem of identity over time" is not in any way evidence for reincarnation but philosophical speculation, at best.

A "ship" is just a nomenclature for a specific (not generalising for any object that float in water) object made of steel that float on water. so a ship that has it pat completely stripped off and replaced with a new part entirely will no longer be the old ship, but a new one. language sometimes can be insufficient to explain some very complex and tricky phenomena.
