LiteratureRe: Who Is Your Favourite Character In The Book You Are Currently Reading? by Illuminatus(m): 7:39pm On Nov 09, 2013
Tavi from The Cursor's Fury by Jim Butcher. He's very resourceful despite his "problem". And I can only sense that he is more than what he seems to be.

Asked her out 6years ago and from that time till this day I asked her out twice and she bluntly said nono, we had a conversation still on the matter and she confessed she was wasn't ready and even when she was ready she did not want to date me because we were so close. After some heated talk on Saturday she Surprised me with a Yes through my Facebook account

SportsRe: How Do You Want The Golden Eaglets To Be Rewarded For Clinching The Title? by Illuminatus(m): 5:27pm On Nov 09, 2013
Please! I don't want to hear anything about them getting millions and houses. They should be paid what the contract says and then they should start preparing for the next phase of their life. It's only in Nigeria that sportmanship like this is rewarded with money. Pretty petty.
Music/RadioRe: How Do Naija Musicians Make Money ? by Illuminatus(m): 5:17pm On Nov 09, 2013
Majority of their money comes from the shows, tours and endorsement deals. They still make some money from selling albums. And they get paid something when channels like Channel O plays their music.
Christianity EtcRe: Is It Wrong To Wear Earrings To Church? by Illuminatus(m): 5:15pm On Nov 09, 2013
I still don't agree with the rule that women shouldn't wear earrings, necklaces or bracelets. The church I'm currently attending says women shouldn't wear these things, but still, majority of the women still wear it to church, and almost all of them wear it outside the church. I'd like to hear argument for this rule though.

RomanceRe: What's Your Take? by Illuminatus(m): 11:31am On Nov 08, 2013
If you're this shy, then your (first) sex should be with someone who likes you, adores you and respects you. Put simply, someone you're dating or have a stable relationship with. Trust me, if you're with someone you like/love, getting naked with them won't be a problem.
Nairaland GeneralRe: Why Are Most "Not Rich Nigerians" Hostile? by Illuminatus(m): 11:24am On Nov 08, 2013
Okay, for starters, there's a difference between being privileged and being rich . Secondly, I know lots of Nigerians who aren't rich (or privileged as you put it) that aren't hostile. I think people become hostile when they become depressed.
Now, people get depressed from a lot of things but in Nigeria, most people become depressed because the economy isn't good to them. Some people feed on less than 150 naira, have two meals that aren't square by day, can hardly afford to pay their kids tutition and owing rent. They constantly worry about today, are apprehensive about tomorrow and torture themselves with the past. It is only logical that these people are volatile and will /spark/ at any provocation.
Don't blame them.

RomanceRe: Are You Dating The Right Person You Ever Dreamt Of Dating Now? by Illuminatus(m): 10:38am On Nov 08, 2013
I'm dating the person I wanted to date in a long time. When I was fifteen, I used to want to date someone that looked like Ding Dong Dantes or a younger David Beckham and even Prince Harry (you can laugh at this one), but I guess you know how that turned out. Anyway, I grew up and realized that there's a difference between what we want and what we can have . So, I adjusted my dreams and now I'm dating someone I have been wooing for two years (hope he doesn't see thischeesy), and he's everything I need now. He makes me happy.

PoliticsRe: Religion In Politics by Illuminatus(op): 4:15pm On Nov 07, 2013
fowowe411: Seconded.though I didn't read all what you typed up there but I think I get your point.The fact that majority of nigerians don't know is that religion as done more harm than good in nigeria polity.you should imagine how much the government(state$fed)spends on pilgrimage of both islamic and christian faithfuls.
Once again I agree with you that politics and religion should be distinctively separated in nigeria for we to have a good country.
Exactly. There was this recent rumor of how the President was taking a host of comrades to Isreal. Of course, the President denied that that was the case...
PoliticsReligion In Politics by Illuminatus(op): 9:41am On Nov 07, 2013

Before I begin, I'd like to state that I am not against Christianity or Islam (or the people who practise them for that matter). I know some people will find this short article appauling but I won't apologise for that. I only implore that you read this article with an open mind, free of bias and using simple common sense.
Like I've stated in the above paragraph, I don't have any problem wig religion in itself or of itself, what I'm opposed to is the idea of using religion as the impetus for policy making and legislation in the nation, especially on the federal level.
Seeing as Nigeria is a country where most people - including politicians and government executives have some sort of religion that guides their decision, it is impossible to have a true separation of religion from the state. That's okay. I don't think we need to elect only atheists into government.
But in a country as populated as ours, with quite a many ethnic group and more than a few religion and denominations (which I haven't decided whether it's a good thing or not), I am suggesting that we create and support a system where political decisions are made based on arguments that stand on their own merits without a religious crutch. To put simply, the argument: "The Bible (or Koran) told me so" is off limits. People need to use objective, measurable evidence to defend their arguments, instead of just referring to their faith and leaving it at that.
It is important to remember that not everybody shares your faith and arguments based on a particular religion doesn't mean much to people who don't share that faith. These arguments just serve as a great catalyst to polarize arguments and creat opposing groups that are unable to actually discuss a problem and hate each other.
As an example is an commonly argued, religiously planted issue: Human rights as pertaining to LGBT (gay) people. Right now, the most popular argument against it is "marriage (sex) was meant be between a man and a woman, because the Bible says so."
Not okay.
You can be opposed to homosexuality, but under the political system I'm suggesting, politicians (and ordinary people) would have to debate it with secular reasoning that can appeal to people of all belief. I could be an atheist and as such, not agree with another that homosexuality is (religiously) wrong. Much like Islam doesn't agree with Christianity that polygamy is wrong.
I'd like to state that removing religion from politics won't creat an immoral, dystopic society. If anything, it will enhance unity between Nigerians and decrease religious/ethnic violence.
So that's it. Null over this. And then, if you have something to say (reasonable, please?) say it.
