What about me

Sacredness:
Where's lalasticala position and occupation?

Lol. I can't relate to everyone here.

1. Seun - Our principal living overseas that is hardly seen at the school. And he has a "time-is-money" mentality too. Whenever he's seen, he is busy with some documents.

2. MANNBBQGRILLS - That good-going student everybody hates. Well, we just hate him because he's in very good terms with the Introductory Technology teacher - the most wicked teacher in the school.

3. NwaAmaikpe - The stubborn student that is hated by nearly all the teachers but liked by the boys, especially we the back-benchers. He speaks out on our behalf when it comes to critical topics. The girls secretly admire him but don't want to associate openly with him so the teachers don't call them "irresponsible".

4. Slowormirr - The guy that passes tests and exams yet has no notebook. He's that guy you don't want to diss with because he'll start using dirty words on you. This guy has changed 12 schools since he started secondary school. The most time he has past in a school was 14 months - in our school. Not because he repented and never did something that merit expulsion (he has been caught two times with a phone in the class while lectures were on), but because he has been registered in the school's WEAC center before his offences came up. So the principal decided to tolerate him for the remaining few weeks he'll be schooling in his school.

5. Sapphire - The girl that claimed Morgana Pendragon deserved to be the Queen of Camelot in place of Author Pendragon. We debated this with her for a long time thinking she's trying to justify Morgana's right from the fact that Morgana is a biological daughter of King Urther. We were surprised the day we found out that she has no idea of Morgana's biological tie to the throne. To this day, most of our classmates still don't get what she was trying to prove by claiming Morgana was the right heir to the throne. The day we stopped debating with her was the day she claimed Morgana was more humane than Merlin.

6. Righteousness88 - The holier-than-thou charismatic student. He's the Chapel prefect. After morning prayers on the Assembly ground, he still prays in the class before lectures. We like the fact that he gives deep advices when asked for some. But we, (especially we the less charismatic fellows) hate the fact that he keeps us under the hot sun during the dismissal Assembling... Sharing the message the Holy Spirit revealed to him during the Lord's prayer.

8. Mynd44 - That class prefect y'all know. I'll say nothing more... I don't want my name going to the principal's office again.

9. Explorer - The quite genius of the class. Everybody looks forward to his recitation at the Assembly ground because he never recites the kind of thing we're taught in the class... But we the back-benchers dislike something about him. He so much likes minding his business and avoids problems that he never criticises evil when he sees one. For instance, he's the only boy in the class that didn't criticise the special treatment Sir "Intro-Tech" gives to the girls

10. TMKsouth - The only Hausa boy in the class that defies our prejudgements on Hausas as illiterate people. He integrated so perfectly with the class that no stranger easily detects he's a northerner... except for his super-black skin. By the way, that his black skin colour was why we gave him the nickname - Abalị - Night. But since he doesn't understand the language, we told him Abalị means "In-law".

Kings999:


how old are you?

As old as your God.

Shut up and go read your books.

Not yet born.

For me, Einstein is no saint. Had it been that he was German, he definitely would've help the Nazis with his intelligence.

And people over-hype his relevance. Because they think being good at mathematics means being a good human being.

Listen to this. Mathematics is the biggest "school of lie" ever invented by man. The school is mathematics and the foundation on which its lies are built is NUMBERS.

For this intellectual exercise I'm inviting you to do, clear your mind of whatever you have been told about the world.
Imagine you are the only rational being that exist in this world.
This is how you'll live.

- You won't give names to things.
- You won't make use of numbers.

Firstly, you won't give names to things because you won't need to use these names (you're the only rational being in the world). Man invented names so as to communicate intelligibly with men.
Secondly, you won't use numbers. Else you'll be faking reality.

Numbers is a counterfeit version of reality. They are kind of fictional version of reality. The discovery of the laws of numbers was made on the basis of an error already predominant in the earliest times, that several things might be identical (but actually there are no identical things), or that there are at least things (but there is no 'thing'). The assumption of multiplicity always presupposes that there is something that occurs multiple times: but this is precisely where error already holds sway.

Nothing happens a multiple of times. Saying you ate rice two times today is a lie because it was never the same rice that you ate twice. Saying you bought two mangoes at the market is a lie because each mango is unique in its existence. No two things are identical.
Numbers is man's way of claiming a certain group of things are identical and so can be put together. Existential lie.

You wrote this because some foreigners probably told you they don't have faith in Nigerians.

See, I hate it when people try to "prove" themselves to others. There's something of insecurity or low self-esteem in the act of proving oneself. Black people are suffering from this problem. Stop it.

Lemme show you an example.

I can mention at least five songs "praising" the Black skin and the African heritage at large. Songs that try to let "others" know Africans are beautiful:

1. Flavour_ Black is beautiful
2. Beyonce ft Wizkid _ Brown skin girl
3. Zoro ft Oxlade _ African girl bad
4. 2Face _ African queen.
5. Akon _ Mama Africa.

Now I challenge you to mention one song by a European praising White skin and the European heritage. You can't.
You know why their artists never waste their time producing such songs? Because they're convinced they're beautiful and don't need to prove it to anybody. And deep inside you, you know that they're beautiful and have a heritage. You'll even see it as a show of arrogance and "racism" if they start singing about their skin colours.

My dear Black people. You're beautiful. You're kind. You're peaceful. And you owe no one any proof of these. Just go on and be yourself. People will notice your beauty and accept deep inside themselves that you're beautiful.

Action they say speak louder than words.

Here they come again.
Reading your text, I feel a theologian must be the author. What I mean is that your anthropology is too dogmatic to be discussed with critical reasoning. Yet you claim to be doing philosophy.

1. What is a "person?" Men invented that.
2. What is a "human being?" Men too invented it.
3. What is "dignity?" One nonsense men invented because they believe they are "superior" to other beings.

You talked about "essence". If your philosophy is truthful, you'll accept with me that "essence" is eternal in Things. Irrespective of the culture, the race, the era, etc, the essence of a being remains the same. This was what made men to abolish slavery because they believed by essence, all men are equal.
But that's myopic. Else you'll be humble enough to accept that all animals are equal (And that's actually the truth. All animals are equal. Man did the inequality differentiation).
500,000 years ago men lived. They were no different from the apes of our age. If you affirm that all men are equal, irrespective of their era and culture, you're equally affirming that apes are equal to us (and hence if our ancestors who lived many thousand years ago have "dignity", then modern day apes have dignity too) . And I can prove to you that this is true. All animals are equal and have the same level of dignity.

Tell me anything "essential" in you that can not be found in other animals. By essential, I mean natural. Something you were born with.
Myopic philosophers would claim "reason" is natural to man and can't be found in animals. But y'all know that is a big lie. The human reason is acquired. It is never natural. No baby has been born and knows right from birth that 1 + 1 = 2. We all learnt it.
And if you bring in a dogmatic defence to claim the baby has reason right from birth but needs experience before using it, I'll tell you that the baby can never make use of reason without being taught to do so. If you dump the baby in a bush and it grows into an adult, it'll live unreasonably like apes. The reason why we make use of reason is because we live in "societies" and are thought to use it. And whatever you're taught to use is not natural to you. It is acquired.

First World countries are finally discovering this truth: that man is not the possessor of the planet and that other animals are equal to man in being and essence. That is why they invent laws to protect other animals just like they protect men. They even send men to prison for maltreatment of other animals. If you manhandle someone and the law sends you to prison for your action, isn't it because the person you manhandled has a "self-value" and hence a self dignity?

So you see? I accept that humans exist and that they have dignity only in the sense that these humans are "unknown". That is to say, no one can point to something and say "only this and his species are humans". Any thing that possesses my natural attributes is a human being to me. If you like name them chimpanzees, dog, goat, man. I don't care about the name. I care about the essence.

Dogs.
Most loyal friends of humans.
I must have them when I retire.


Don't call me racist, but I don't see myself owning an Ekuke in my home.

1. Ayam water yam.
Or
2. The god who became man.

Blessings

HellVictorinho:


You are saying the same thing other theists say in a different way.

Did you even read my post?
I'm theist.

All those asking if he's done adopting motherless children and helping his poor neighbours. Y'all should shut the hell up. I repeat... "Shut the Hell Up!!!"


This is the ugly African mentality. If you don't marry they make you feel like you're a failure. This socio-marital pressure has made people go into marriages they were never prepared for and they ended up bringing in "unplanned" children into the world. Wicked as these Africans are, they make the rich feel guilty for their irresponsibility. Now the rich is considered inhumane because he opted to adopt an animal and not your child. My friend don't bring in any child into this world if you're not certain of him/her having a good life.

For your info, I'm going to adopt animals when I retire from work. Cry me a bucket of tears. If you like, go and be giving "unplanned" births to children hoping some rich fellow will adopt them.
NONSENSE!

OK.
But I'll advice you to stop wasting your time knowing if your Pastor is Real or Fake. Only God knows who's who. Unless you want to play God.

What you should do is this. Don't sheepishly follow Pastors. Listen to their messages (oral as well as practical), take the part of their message that gives sense to your life and leave the rest. You must not take everything Men of God tell you. Just like you, they're imperfect beings and are susceptible to errors.

And when you know and understand that they are imperfect, you'll avoid the mistake of interpreting their shortcomings as diabolic. (For you know your parents are imperfect yet you don't say they're diabolic)

Lastly, even Pastors whose foundation is evidently diabolic get to pass messages that makes sense to our lives. Take the message and live your life.

You guys use the word "WORLD" whereas you're discussing the planet "EARTH". Well, I think some dictionaries permit that.

First off.
Life didn't start 4 billion years ago on earth. So try to differentiate the age of the earth from the age of life on earth.

Life on earth is very likely to disappear before the earth itself gets destroyed (by an asteroid or orther spacial accidents).
But one thing I believe that will exist for many more billions of years is the Universe.
If the Universe can be compared to the human body, the earth is a cell in this body.

Being Worshipped.

1. Hating myself.
2. Hating myself.

Guns don't kill. Humans do.

Prodigee:
All these mzansi people sef!

I have a question though: why do southies tend to have a semblance in look? Do you guys inbreed?

Childish.

AsherAmari:
I'm an RCCG member but if it happens I can't find my denomination anywhere I go visiting, I'll either attend Deeper life Bible Church or MFM

I wouldn't attend any white garment gathering because they are fetish in their practices.

Also, I wouldn't attend kingdom Hall because some of their beliefs are upside down. They can twist the Bible even when you can see it clearly.

I love everyone though. Not hating on anyone.

Save yourself the "I wouldn'ts"

See how modern-day Christians reason.
So you forcibly need a Church to worship God? So how did you cope during the Covid lockdown when Churches were closed?

Grow up Christians. The Church is a building where you meet to worship God as a "Community". And to some extent, it is not always accessible to you. The true Church that is never unavailable to you is YOU.

Beautiful.

TMKsouth:
I thought with 500 languages most Nigerians would be multilingual, I'm surprised you speak so few. Probably why the country suffers from such extreme tribalism.

Tribalism in Nigeria is 90% political.

TMKsouth:

In South Africa we have 11 official languages and most black people can comprehend around 8 of them

Why did you mention only the Blacks? And others?

Amatarasha:
Can we stap using word " Alien or aliens " pls
We have Humanoids and undisclosed creatures ,
Alien is a Selfish word tank u

You're right. But I'm the God of my diction.
I'm intelligent enough to use the word people use without loading it with the same sense/meaning as people.

And I think I put the word "Alien" in inverted-commas which logically means it is not carrying the same traditional meaning it has.

Amatarasha:
So WaT happeneD to blackhole ?
Universe has many out-universe portals , dO yoU know about it ?

That which you call universe is actually called "Galaxies" and it is that which you call multi-verse that is universe.

This experiments were done in the United States many years ago. But I bet you to repeat it on your young ones and see if the results have changed. Yet we're not suffering racism in the sub-Saharan Africa.

The 1947 photograph bellow (by Gordon Parks, for Ebony Magazine) may look simply like a child being observed at play, but, in fact, it reveals an experiment that helped lead to the Supreme Court’s (of USA) monumental decision in
Brown v. Board of Education, demanding the racial integration of American public schools. The social psychologists Kenneth and Mamie Phipps Clark sought to challenge the court’s existing opinion that “separate but equal” public schools were constitutional (Plessy v. Ferguson, 1896) by testing whether African-American children were psychologically and emotionally damaged by attending segregated schools. Dr. Kenneth Clark showed children between the ages of six and nine two dolls that were exactly the same – except one was black and one was white. He would then ask the children a series of questions about the dolls, questions like…” Show me the doll that you like to play with… show me the doll that’s a nice doll… show me the doll that’s a bad doll.”
While the majority of all children ended up choosing the white doll as the good doll and the black doll as the bad doll, the black children who attended segregated schools had an even higher instance of choosing the black doll as bad and preferring the white doll to play with – over 70%. By Dr. Clark’s account, when those boys and girls were then told, “Now show me the doll that’s most like you,” some became “emotionally upset at having to identify with the doll that they had rejected.” Some even stormed out of the room. As Dr. Clark recalled, he and his wife concluded that “color in a racist society was a very disturbing and traumatic component of an individual’s sense of his own self-esteem and worth.” As late as the early 1950s, social science findings did not often cross the radar screen of the nation’s highest court. But during preparations for the cases that made up Brown, the N.A.A.C.P. chief counsel (later Supreme Court Justice) Thurgood Marshall dismissed warnings by other civil rights lawyers that the justices would be offended if they were subjected to tales about dolls and wailing children.
In May 1954, he was proved right. When Brown was decided, the court cited the doll study as a factor in its deliberations. That night, at an exuberant dinner, Mr. Marshall raised a glass to Kenneth Clark and demanded of those once skeptical colleagues, “Now, apologize!”

First off. That world "multiverse" has no sense.
The true word is "Universe", from Latin Unus in versus Meaning "diversified but united" or "united in it's diversity".


About the Radio frequency picked by an earth's satellite.
There's a scientific hypothesis that states that life came from space. It claims that our species have lived many billion years ago in some other planet(s). And they most likely attained the technological level we currently are on.

Lemme tell you how this hypothesis was born.

Human genes are currently in the space. Search up "Immortality drive".
So if an asteroid hits our planet and gets us extinct, the backup DNAs in space can be lucky to start new human life from scrap (from micro-evolution).

When scientists pondered this hypothesis, it dawned on them they're probably not the first scientists doing it. Maybe our "alien" ancestors did it and that was how we came about.
These ancestors, being certain that they are going to go extinct one day, tried regenerating in new planets. And that was how we came about. Now we're simply repeating the process. And maybe many billion years from now, the beings who evolved from our DNAs in space might receive a signal we ourselves sent out and be wondering where it came from... Just like we're doing now.

Hello.

Your DM caught my attention. I don't have an email account like led with this NL account. Can you be kind to reach me via email or WhatsApp?

OK.
Your email?

FatherOfJesus:

“If there no God, then what’s your purpose in life” is like asking “if there’s no master, then who am I slave to”

Stop lying. I don't do logics.
I asked you a simple question. "Why are you on earth?" Forget about God. I didn't mention God in my Question. Reply to the question without mentioning God too.

FatherOfJesus:
Lol, that answer only exist in the metaphysical realm.

His noodliness, The Flying Spaghetti Monster is the answer.

Stop embarrassing yourself.
If you know it exists in the metaphysical realms, why not go there and get it? Are you not being lazy for knowing where an answer to a problem lies yet unable to go get it?
And since you refused to go get the answer, why criticise those who used metaphysics to answer the question?
You're so confused.

Mercisharelove:



What's humanity without the family Mr slothful

Humanity can exist without your family. Your family can't exist outside of humanity.
Common sense.

FatherOfJesus:
I am on earth because the Flying Spaghetti Monster created me in his own image to serve him.

What else do you want to hear?

Dumbness overload.
I told you to reply me without referring to a metaphysical (supernatural) intuition.

FatherOfJesus:
I also believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster as the only true God, I do so with faith as well.
I’m on earth because his noodliness the Flying Spaghetti Monster wants me to be here to serve him
I hope you see how logical you sounded

Are you avoiding the question?
Forget about what others say and believe in. Just tell me why you're on earth.
