Recognise i dey feel you man, how did you get hold of all that q33 ny , but hey sure as hell you are right. hey je soul you remind me of a friend who worships bush, all the facts that you see ma gees presenting are in fact true, if you can provide evidence that proves that bush had no hand in it or even explain convincingly why you think bush does not have a hand in this every one will agree wit you but you just keep saying that everything is a lie or a conspiracy theory. how do you think rumours and conspiracies start, the truth, the bitter truth!

hehe so I should be the one to prove Bush did not have a hand in this? seriously? The onus is unquestionably on the conspiracy theorist.

They will have no choice but to end it soon anyways, the military is thinning by the day and the govt cannot afford to keep out able bodies.

I've stopped taking the Nobel prizes seriously for some time now. After they gave one to Al Gore that was the nail in the coffin.

lol Giants 44 -7 over Oakland what a disgrace.

Rikky Oakland needs you now more than ever!

I feel like a traitor for not being upset the Pats lost to the Broncos. Truth is I like this Bronco team and what McDaniels has been able to do with Bawo ex, turning him into a solid qb.

As for the Bengals, they are looking for real. But lets wait a few more weeks . . . they guys have a way of sabotaging themselves.

Shola2009:
I downloaded the whole season 1, and i've watched the first 6 episodes.I must say,its not addictive at all. Agent dunham,barely uses her gun,which kind fbi agent be that I like the whole concept of the show,fringe science's pretty interesting.But,the cast is crap !! i think they certainly could have done better.

no way! its the strong cast that makes that show go for me.

Mohawk,
everybody loves Walter lol the good, the bad folks, everybody. His quirkiness is a big draw.

Lol @Sauron vs Spiked . . . .carry on kids, carry on

U.saw.Sango?

Pardon the breaks in transmission my brother, my online time is spotty these days. But yeah I saw GI and will give my not so nice thots at the right time hehe.

Couldn't find the presentation I will keep digging. I did find a few papers on the drug industry, forensic dna fingerprinting etc intrested?

Last movie I saw was 'Meteor' starring Sean Connery an old flick from 1979.

[quote author=Mad_Max link=topic=173006.msg4711347#msg4711347 date=1255267875]Totally.But JS finds it boring, lol, along with Fight Club and City of God and Wall E and Memento. Oh but Norbit had her riveted.[/quote]

spikedcylinder:
Oh my goodness. Jesoul, your internet movie review career is finished.

lol . . . Max where did you get your information? I LOVED City of God. As for Wall-E I already told you, watching two robots romancing is not my thing.

  Memento was boring. Trainspotting I watched only 20mins. Fight Club I fell asleep half hour thru. Boring boring boring. I'd rather be laughed to death by Norbit any day sister, any day! 

vescucci:
Ah JeSoul. You're so cute right now. I think what you're missing is an animal totem. You have no wild side. No vicious latent core. Maybe just a righteous anger every now and then but no beast that you have to quell with occasional bits of Tarantino like gore. You should go to Nepal and climb those Tibetan mountains, mingle with those Tibetan people. I like/hate that game. Some things will be shocking. Other things will not be. Here's a confession: I'm scared of going blind more than any other thing. If I ever go blind, it'll be a matter of time before I off myself.

lol dude you're not far from the truth. I have been taming the beast successfully for many many years trust me, you don't want me to have a wild side hehe.

Another confession: I love the way Jennifer Conolly walks, talks and looks.

Haha! Noted.

Is Starbury going to get a job at all? the season is already here and no one has picked him up. This will be truly sad if he's left on the shelf.

bawomolo:
braylon butterfingers edwards has being traded to the jets.   

the jets are serious about putting talent around matt sanchez.   they didn't overpay like the stupid cowboys did for roy williams

I dunno. I remain unconvinced about the Jets as serious contenders. We'll see.

I fear small for these Broncos coming into town this sunday, I don't think they're getting the respect they deserve. They are a solid all around team.

rikkyjen:
@ JeSoul, . .

Daing. . You were dropping some knowledge in that footage.

So you Rap? A-40 and Sauron, WHere Y'all Gunz @. This girl's freestyle will wreck Y'all into shreds and dices.

Her bars, word play, subtleties, multis and Flows would make Y'all drool with kelebe dripping from Y'alls mouth

Okay, Enough of my perambulation. . . What happened to your face in that video?

I woulda loved to see the face of "that" lady who thinks the Patriots and Brady are the best thing since sliced bread and Margarine!

Rikky sweetie please forgive the tardy response. And muchos gracias on the compliments I am more than flattered . And I mischeviously pick the blurry and dark videos on purpose, believe it or not, despite the exposure I remain a very shy and private person. but shoot me ur email if you're so inclined and I'll direct you to the official site .

. . . and A-40 raps? dude drop some lines lets hear.

Vesc the vaccum will not last long, lets stir the flames of controversy shall we . . .

so there's this game going on in my city right now. They set up a hotline for folks to call in and 'confess' what things/people/shows/movies/foods/places etc that are wildly popular and loved but they secretly hated. Folks called in, men confessing they hated sports, some confessing they hated 24, hated NY, hated cheese etc . . .

[quote author=Mad_Max link=topic=173006.msg4688598#msg4688598 date=1254952720]Cos of all those silly coos she makes when she's trying to act 'feminine'? Now watching the amazing City of God. With Fight Club, Trainspotting, Pulp Fiction,The Shawshank Redemption and Apocalyse Now, it was on a list of 50 Movies You Must See Before You Die.[/quote]I didn't like Fight Club. I only stood 30mins of it and turned it off. Same for Trainspotting, I only lasted 20mins on that one. Don't even get me started on Memento - I just don't get what the hoopla is over those wildly acclaimed flicks.

  So there, my confessions for today. Feel free to be shocked hehe.

justkunmi:
Where's.everybody?

. . . busy watching GI Joe.

So I finally took one for the club and sacrificed to watch GI joe. I will save my review for the appropriate time, but it wasn't as bad as I expected . . . no, it was worse lol.

Btw how you dey my brotha?

Ikomi common now, I know you must be kidding right? 

[flash=450,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch/v/5hLDjGdJC0Q&NR/1[/flash]
Death to Isreal, wipe them off the map etc etc . . . the usual rant from that holocaust denying delusional fella unfortunate to be the president of a country of sometimes wonderful and brilliant people.

bawomolo:
chei dungy is attracting male groupies now

Kai lol . . . Binna come and defend your honor

rikkyjen:
Rikky loves the Raiders? Sounds like an Elegy. . . Betterstill it sounds like a cry for the dead!
WHy dont we try JeSoul loves the JamaicanPond. . . . . _{You know where that pond is in Boston sef?}
Leave me jejely in my Icycap Indy than associating with O-Town, one of the numerous murder capitals in America.

Aight I see my sales pitch is not doing the job. How about the wonderful, incredible, abominable wonder that are the Detroit Lions? Rikky loves the Lions? lol

On a serious note, i clicked on the youtube link in your siggy and i saw this lady doing her thing? Is that you?

Yes sir it is I, guilty as charged.

rikkyjen:
Me Raiders? Tufiakpa!!!!. Seriously, me suppourting 'em Raiders is like bowing down to Imhothep

Rikky support the Raiders, a team that is a prototype of failure in the last 5 seasons? a Team  that is defeat personified? 

Try using a boiling ring in an ocean or Try the US Marines in Fallujah smoking Hookah with Osama  

Embrace your destiny Rikky . . . see it even rhymes . . . Rikky loves the Raiders! 
They could use some of your success and prosperity mojo no? I hear the city is ripe with gangs you can positively influence and its summer all year round in comparison to icy Indy.

  Rikky loves the Raiders!!! 

Horus:
2020 olympics in Africa?

lol . . . maybe South Africa. The rest of us have no chance for at least a century.

Gekko:
Seriously, the emotional play was pretty pathetic and desperate. I'm glad Rio got it, and besides what was Oprah doing there anyway, this woman is ignorant and out of touch of what goes on in the world.

I couldn't believe that was the sales pitch they chose to use . . . very bad idea. The world does not care about sentiments, especially personal sentiments that have no practical bearing on the issue at hand. I mean RIP Michelle's dad but what does that have to do with anything?

iice:
[color=#9900ff]Yeah i did, i think she looks cute in the hijab

Nice surprise at the ending huh? [/color]

Yeah I've been wondering when the opposition was going to zero in on Walter as he's the one that makes fringe go. The plot thickens  . . .  

 

iice:
[color=#9900ff]BTW how come no one's touching the Polanski issue on this thread? [/color]

lol . . . well you heard Whoopi and co now, it wasn't "rape-rape" "he's a brilliant movie maker" . . . bunch of hollywood airheads who think they've attained some status where the law does not apply to them.

 Chris Rock and Jay Leno did give Polanski and his hollywood supporters a tongue lashing last night, thank God some of them haven't completely cracked out their brains.

Weirder? is that even possible? lol

btw, catch Fringe last night? Olivia in a hijab was too funny

Kai see as they dissed Obama, Michelle and Oprah all at the same time but seriously I thought their pitches were too emotional, the rest of the world does not care about what your father would've liked to see or that America needs to repair her image etc - I thought that was weak. They could've done so much better than that

But nevertheless, I'm rooting for Rio 2016!

Ikomi:
This is a very ignorant statement.

Show a speech by Almhadinajad, or Iranian spiritual leader that called for genocide against the Isrealis?

are you serious? If I had a penny for everytime this has happened I'd be a billionaire - in US Dollars.

spikedcylinder:
Yea, my nuts. Who has a problem with that?

lol . . . one of your superpowers?

iice, there was an animated series of Aeon Flux? didn't know that. Before or after the movie?

Gamine:
i am however looking forward to his pharaoh movie

what's dat?

Eya Bawo, kpele, no Olympics in Chi-town anytime soon.
Bet you were already buying up some real estate so as to make a huge windfall when you sell at 100% the original value.

2 Indy fans is 1 too much jor
Rikky, I am certain the Raiders would be very welcoming and appreciative of your sworn allegiance

Don't mind me or the location, I'm just doing what I do best, kidd around Life could not be rosier right now

No2Atheism:
No be only retrieve . . . na refund . . how many things africa don retrieve. . .

Ehen now which is why I said if they can develop into a civil, strong nation. Most African nations are still entangled in tribalism to even lift their heads and focus on the real enemy.

[quote author=Tonye-t link=topic=307798.msg4654800#msg4654800 date=1254499611]
@Jesoul,

My sister the problem i have with you is that you seem to liberal , at first i could really take your writings not until i saw your degree of rationality here. if i can still remember in your first post here you used a scripture in romans that talked about the freedom or rather options of eating meat and observing seasons to teach tithe, that it should be an optional thing.

Again you said, your best teaching about giving is when you do so to your niece or some beggar and you gat me thinking, what has FREEWILL OFFDERING got to do with an ancestral standard

well like you rightly said, if you choose to continue without giving your tithe, ok o, my sister you are free, but until then i will rather choose to be likened as the first sonin the prodigal son parable! Happy weekend my sister
[/quote]Tonye the problem is your perception of me as a "liberal christian", I am a bible christian. You picked only one part of the post where I talked about giving to the poor, family and friends in need or beggars etc and stretched it to mean that is only how we should give - when the simple point I was making is that giving should'nt have any  boundaries or barriers.

 In addition I wrote a detailed post much earlier on this thread explaining my view and how it is biblical but you must have missed it. Please see below and you're welcome to comment and show where I am out of line biblically. Thank you.

I didn't want to comment on this over-flogged horse that has been debated uncountable times here on NL but I feel like there is scriptural dishonesty going on this thread. and Tonye I saw this thread and immediately thought to leave you to your convictions but since you've determined to project your own personal convictions on this matter of tithing unto other christians and declare that the standard for them as well - I decided to respond.

I had remarked to you once that it is possible for 2 christians to believe differently about something and both be right. Romans 14. And Paul's conclusion was that each man should be fully convinced in the faith about their choice. Which is why I am not sure why this matter is still being 'debated'.

 Twist and misquote the scriptures all you want - There is no new testament directive for christians to tithe - infact there is no new testament directive for us to do anything outside of faith! there are no requirements, no laws, no rituals. There are a few portions that you can read & apply to mean the tithe is still relevant - to you - but another can also quote 2Cor 9:7 which says clearly "Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver"  - and I despise it when people only quote the last portion that says God loves a cheerful giver without quoting the first part that says "Each man should decide in his heart what to give"


Now is it good to tithe by faith? Yes.
Is it good to not tithe by faith? Yes.
Is it good to tithe as if you were following a law and trying to fufill a requirement? No.
Is it a requirement for NT Christians? No.
Is it a choice based solely on faith? Yes.
Are those who tithe better, more spiritual than those who don't? No.
Are those who don't tithe necessarily stingy and greedy? big fat NO.

 The bible does teach that if you give it will come back to you, and you will be blessed - but this is seperate from the issue of tithing. It is also sad and reprehensible pro-tithers label non-tithers as stingy and greedy and unwilling to give a "mere 10%" to God. This is condescending and reeks of spiritual superiority complex. Just because a christian doesn't tithe doesn't mean they don't give generously and in many cases even more than those who beat their chest as accomplished tithers.

 No I don't tithe, but I give regularly and whenever I am able to, sometimes small, sometimes large. Not just to my local church, but to family, friends who may be in need, to the stranger, to the homeless man, to my 6 yr old neighbor, to the local charity etc. Does the church need finances to forward the gospel of Christ? absolutely! do churches need finances to run/operate? of course, and the staff must be taken care of by the congregation and Christians should give as much and as frequently as they can. But one who's persuaded to tithe must and should not look down on the one who doesn't.

lol hope you found a good black queen cos many of them can be quite crazy

As for the topic sef, I don't know much about the looting of iraqi history . . . I do suppose somewhere down the line, if they become a civil nation in tune with the times, then I suppose it won't be all that difficult to retrieve these items. Nations do so all the time don't they?

jimuchy:
As for me when I look back and even project into the future of this country I am ashamed to be called a Nigerian, if I come back to this world again I'd rather be a white man in America or UK because everywhere you look in Africa where there is one form of natural resource or the other there is poverty have you guys thought about it and its all about greed from Liberia to Sierra Leone, Congo Zaire, Congo Brazzaville, Guinea, Gabon, CAR, Cameroun, etc

I'D RATHER BE A WHITE MAN IF I HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY OF COMING BACK TO THIS WORLD AGAIN

       this is serious . . .

lol so wetin dey now? you haven't been around to provide some solid comic relief the past few. Wetin happen? you got into trouble and were locked up somewhere in the white man jail?

Nah there was a Stimulus dude, very smart guy just like you.

As for the whole Africa thing, I think we carry of lot of the blame for the state we're in, the slave traders and invaders had their role definitely, but I think a good chunk of the damage is/was self-inflicted.

Okay you have made your point Gentle, I am a silly female who goes about insulting people and pretending to be apologetic afterwards, infact I am the worst of hypocrits. Point taken and acknowledged. Thank you.

No2 drive over to politics, its less crowdy . . .
