Now here is the verse again,

"The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God." (Deu 22:5 )

Mr Hesperus you must be one of those Christ Embassy boys.Your Pastor preached against this and he was wrong.Trousers every sane person knows is meant for Men.The fact that the Bible din't categorically say Women should not wear it doesn't mean it's not what it meant, I won't be suprised if your Pastor tells you to wear skirts since it's not categorically stated in the Bible.Am not even suprised Oya Chris perms his hair,yes that's cos it's not categorically stated.I sure won't be suprised to see you guys wear weavon on your heads cos it's not stated in the Bible.I don't even trip when I see a Nigger wear earrings to Church,why would they not when it's not categorically stated in the Bible?

I sure wouldn't be suprised if your Pastor starts telling you homosexualism is not a Sin when Big boys and girls who are Billionaires and are homosexual starts worshipping with y'all .He sure wouldn't wanna loose the 10% they will give every Month end. Cos it's stated thus in the bible in Lev 18:22 'Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable, Am waiting for the day they will preach against that too.

There you go, judging others. FYI, I have never stepped foot inside a Christ Embassy church, except a couple of times when I went to their campus fellowships. Does it matter where I worship? What is paramount is the conviction in your heart, you will agree with me that being a church-goer (even to whatever church YOU believe is holiest) does not guarantee salvation.

That said, now let me break down this trouser issue to you. Firstly, where is it written that trousers are meant for men? Afterall, men in the biblical era wore robes. If you decide to go by present day assumptions, then a robe is a flowing garment, such as a boubou. Do men wear boubou?

Let me give you more instances. People living in cold regions wear layers to keep warm. Are you telling me that women there should only wear skirts, and freeze?
Also, talk about protective gear. Should women in certain industries (oil and gas, fire services) wear PPE made in a skirt-like manner, simply because the bible says they shouldnt wear what pertaineth to a man? How about women in sports (tennis, football), they should also wear skirts? Please let us be reasonable here.

Of course, you are aware that a skirt is part of the scottish traditional attire for men. Tell me that is a sin as well?

Mind you, the bible verse you are quoting is from the old testament. If we decide to live by all that is in that part of the bible, you know what will happen. I'm talking about all the eye for an eye verses and all that. Which is why Jesus came, so we can have a new testament and a fresh outlook in life.

I hope I made enough sense here.

Challenge me?Well then you're most welcome . Here is my first answer for ya:
Many professing Christians want to make Deuteronomy 22:5 of none effect. They don't like the law. It embarrasses them before the world. So they nullify it with all sorts of strained hermeneutical ploys. Know what? You can chop the verse up however you want to. You're still responsible to keep it. And don't tell me you love God if you won't.

P.S: May I know where you worship?

I worship in a Church. You still havent answered my question you know, I will assume it is because you have no clear cut response for me. Am I right?

Heard that a friend just lost his dad. Called him and spoke to him now, apparently he didnt even go back home (Pakistan) cos his dad had already been buried according to muslim rites.

I really feel for him cos he's the first son and eldest child, hence all responsibilities now lie on his shoulders. He's only 23.

kunleweb:
I believe alcohol is a substance just like ethanol,ethanol is gotten from vines and the back of grapes,in the law of Moses the Bible clearly stipulates that vines,their juices and barks must not be drunk but be left for the worms to eat them and why?, that the worm would not eat the root of the crop.we are fluid beings in pressed jars of His Majesty,it makes our vessels contaminated with what a Holy Spirit would recognize as flit and reduces our spirituality in Him even by the smallest index even if we do not accept it.

Wow. Some very deep yarns.

badboym:
Nigger,read the Bible and comprehend it yourself.You know the verse you're only trying to complicate issues just like most Pastors are today.My point here is simple.If the World isn't confused,why do they read just one book (Bible)and practice different things?

Guy, I am not trying to complicate issues, I am only stating the obvious. Since you think you are so learned, can you prove to me that the Bible categorically said "trousers should not be worn by women"? I hereby challenge you!

You know, reading your posts, I still dont get what you're on about.

If you read my comment well, all I said was I dont know where in the bible it specified that women shouldnt wear trousers.

As for your question asking whether I can afford the pastor's schools, how does that in any way buttress your point?

I believe in God and heaven, but not necessarily the way most churches tend to go about it these days.

Well, IMO, I really dont see the sin in alcohol consumption. I think the keyword here is MODERATION. What God frowns against is excess consumtption.

Science-inclined people will agree with me that alcohol is can be derived from fermented sugar. Thus, all sugary drinks if left to stand, have some alcohol content, no matter how minute. Does it mean that we should avoid those as well?

ziga:
Nigerians are the biggest problem of Nigeria. Inferiority complex has bitten real deep into their genes.

Have you ever seen any tv commercial in America where they generalize or talk shit that black americans are jobless and are criminals. To generalize in any context is WRONG!

To all those talking shit - you better wake up.

This isnt a matter of talking shit or inferiority complex, this is reality! The bad image we have was generated by us, and it is up to us to fix it. QED.

wow. . .that was a hit way below the belt.

But to be honest, can we blame them? We should blame ourselves for the negative image of naija we keep portraying to the world! Everytime I check my inbox, I always find one scam email from naija yahoo boys. Obviously, others get these emails, and this further taints our reputation.

badboym:
Nigger,I no go talk too much.Na God really know who go make heaven.I bought the land I built on from a church and the Land was supposed to be sold for 1m but I bought it for 1.2m.After I had paid the money to one of the big boys in the church,there was a misunderstanding between the agents and the guy from the church involved , you needed to see how the guy was behaving cos of money.He din't wanted to give what belonged to the agents to them.As if that wasn't enough,when I wanted to sign the agreement,they were telling me to donate money for the church's project.This one wey I dey talk so na by force o.We still dey drag the matter.See,it is clearly stated in the Bible and now you're trying to complicate it.What will be the name of your bible be?Na everybody dey write their own now.Listen if Hell fire wasn't forever,am sure I won't burn than most Pastors and people like you who deceive people and try to remix what the bible says.

I don't practice any religion but I believe if I die,I will make Heaven cos am a good guy.

So what exactly is your point? Cos all what you're saying sounds like baseless ranting to me! You just seem to be sitting on the fence, neither here nor there.

THE AMAKA:
the italy comment was still mean.
i feel bad after i have read some stories of some of the girls who were kidnapped or lied into into thinking they had a job waiting for them just to provide for their family.
i almost cried.

Life is mean. Tough! Deal with it.
Yes my heart goes out to the ones who were deceived into going. But on the other hand, some are fully aware of their mission there and still opt for it. Trust me, I know.

THE AMAKA:
hesperus:

okay that italy comment was uncalled for.
you are just insulting all the women in edo state who are being trafficked to italy.
please dont mock them.

@ TheAmaka, if it makes you feel any better, I am also from Edo state! lol

@ The Amaka, why are you taking panadol for someone else's headache? The way you are carrying this Rita's matter on your head, na you buy the form for am?
Anyway, me I still insist that Rita was NOT real in any way. The fact that other girls in the mnasion were quite polished and she wasnt doesnt necessarily make them less real than she was. Y'all just think that because Rita was oozing razzness. I have known Bolanle for years, and I know for sure she wasnt putting up an act. She has always been reserved and well-mannered. Boring, maybe, but that is your own opinion.

All this debating isnt going to change anything sef. Fact remains, Bola's account is 5 million naira credited and she is sporting a Chris Aire diamond ring. Rita, on the other hand, is back in village probably thinking of how to runs a visa to Italy or something.

Agent X:
Chidinma na fyn gal,
[b]Rita wa the realest gal [/b]but she should try to go to school even if it is nite skool.
Bolanle was boring and uppity
Dbanj is a charmer and scammer, see rhyming

Abegi! Real my foot. People should stop confusing being real with being bush. The babe is RAZZ, QED!

Deutoronomy 22:5

Abeg, you guys shd stop misinterpreting jare! It says "women should not wear what pertaineth to a man. .", right? So, where does it particularly say trousers are men's clothing? Afterall, all illustrations of Jesus Christ are of him in a robe. Would you say those are female garments?

Firstly, in love since primary school? Haba! Una don spoil tey tey.
Of course you can still marry, as long as you both agree to be patient and stick to one another. My girlfriend is just 3 months younger than me and we de kampe! We havent discussed marriage extensively, but somehow we both know thats where its headed.

THE AMAKA:
yeah she was just a pretty face, thats it.
OMG did you see ISI? SO UGLY.
even all the makeup and weave she was wearing still didnt help her at all!!! lol
and Lizzy had issues always attacking shona. lol
i love shona though, shes pretty.

Men, dat Isi was so fake right from day 1, so obvious that the "fune" was forced and still she wasnt even getting it. Those eyelashes just made her look like a correct "winch"!

lol @ Amaka. Chidinma was just a pretty face, thats all. I dont mind hooking up with her sha, lol!
As for Chioma's singing, what can I say? I also didnt find it too appealing, but I still wish her the best.

THE AMAKA:
also where is rita from? is she from Benin City or Warri?
im not sure on where she is from.
but i think Benin City, Edo State?

Yeah Rita is from Edo state too. I'm just replyin the idiots who are bringin tribalism into the matter.
As someone rightly said, Rita's fans were the loudest but they prolly didnt vote. Most of that we were seeing were kokoshouts, not votes.
Besides, I think it was more out of sympathy than anything else. I know this sounds downright judgemental, but how many of these so-called Rita fans would actually wanna hook up with a babe like her? Pls, lets be real. If D'Banj did rig the votes which I strongly doubt, then I dont blame him at all!

ololomu:
Two of you are the MOST FOOLISH AND STUPID IDIOTS I HAVE EVER SEEN. I KNOW YOU HATE IGBOS BUT I DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE U ARE BOTH FOOLS. DBANJ CHOSE BOLA BECAUSE SHE IS YORUBA. WHAT ARE FUCKING RACIST USELESS ,HOPELESS SINGER DOING RACIST NONSENSE KOKOMANSION! RITA IS THE TRUE WINNER IF NOT BECAUSE OF YORUBA RACISM. BIG FOOLS!

Who is this buffoon? Are you deaf, or didnt you hear that she isnt Yoruba? She is from Edo state.
Let us face facts, yes Rita is cultured, polite, bla bla bla, but then, would that be a true representation of Naija girls?

@ topic, I think you should go ahead and apply. You are not new to the British system anyway, so you know how it works. The way I see it, these guys are mostly interested in the funds, prolly due to recession and all that. They know how much we foreigners bring into their system, so they are ready to milk us, lol! Nothin do you, I'm sure you'll get it.

@ my fellow UNILAG graduates, holla!

lol @ y'all! Typical feminine responses.

One thing you should know is that guys don't like tabs being kept on them. We still like to know that we still have total() control over our affairs.
Besides, lateness is definitely NOT the only sign of infidelity. In some cases, it probably wont even be one.

[color=#9900ff]Is that a trick question?[/color]

No, its not a trick question, tis just a discussion I had with some buddies of mine. You know all these white girls like trying rubbish.

Man in the mirror. . .fills me with mixed feelings

In the 80s, MJ had everybody doing the moonwalk. . .
Usher - U-turn

Men, I have never stepped into that building, and I dont look forward to it either.
Got my e-passport last year in Naija, cost me 20k and the whole process (payment, biometrics and collection) took 3 days!
Egunje spoil nothin, lol!

I really dont mind, as long as all is done in moderation. That is the key word here. Drunk guy or drunk girl, both are equally unsexy!

Is it cheating if your (straight) girlfriend has a one-night stand with another girl, just for trips?
