I think it has everything to do with something I know nothing about.

RIP Stephen Hawkins.

He was an extraordinary physicist the world should honour with a posthumous Nobel Prize.

People keep envying. She keeps rising.

I already have an idea of how large the number is of those who wish Otedola was their father. Since money has been made a virtue it won't be of essence whether the path that leads to it is narrow or wide ,clean or dirty.

# Nigerians are ....

This sort of policy will draw the ire of those who might have easily expected to see Senator Iwobi championing the cause of Africa in Italy even as it is not the duty of his office. Is this not the sense of entitlement that has far reduced this vast continent to a crying baby? Is this not the mood dominant before and after Obama clinched the US presidency?

The Body Language of Haters you should study. Keep in mind that each sign could have a different meaning based on the situation it occurred at.

1) NOT STAYING CLOSE:

When people feel uncomfortable around someone they won't allow him to get closer or invade their private space. This works in an opposite way if people were interested in someone.

2) TOUCHING THE NOSE:

A person will touch his nose when something negative happens. If someone touched their nose as soon as they heard that you succeeded at something then this can be a clear sign of hatred or at least jealousy.

3) TOUCHING THE BROWS:

When something bad happens to you: Touching the brows in body language is the opposite of touching the nose. It happens when the person finds that something positive has happened. If the person touched his brows right after hearing that your business failed or that you got bad grades then this might be a sign of hatred.

4) STRAIGHT BACK:

When a person hears about good news his back will usually become straighter. The opposite will happen if the person heard bad news. Now if someone's back got straighter as soon as he heard bad news about you then this could be a clear sign of hatred

5) NO TOUCHING:

People don't feel comfortable touching a person they don't like. If a person touched you while talking or sitting beside you then know that they probably don't hate you. The opposite is true

6) REDUCED EYE CONTACT

If a person hates you then probably he won't look towards you often. This can also happen if the person is shy or if he doesn't care about you.

7) GREETING YOU WITH A FAKE SMILE:

A genuine smile moves many of the facial muscles. A fake smile on the other hand moves the muscles around the mouth only sitting far away: If a person doesn't like you they are very likely to sit far away from you even if there was an empty chair next to you.

While you think its unrealistic, the Chinese don't see it as unrealistic. The sad part of the discussion is the narrow minded way we perceive things as Africans. The silk project is still ongoing and they haven't stopped. Master plans are not like the 2-4 years that your traditional politicians dole out to you in order to get your votes. We are talking about 50 year plan. Trust me the Chinese folks are master strategists; shame on shallow brains who serve as leaders in Africa.

Hello!

In considering the point you raised about the possibility of building a continental rail ,I stumbled upon the fact that China has been able to secure access to copper in Afghanistan via the extensive road network linking both countries and through its huge investment of 2.5 billion dollars to this end . Since both countries entered into an agreement guaranteeing China's unrestricted two - year access to Afghan copper sites valued at 90 billion dollars ,new market opportunities are now available for Afghan businesses going for cheap Chinese goods.

But connecting Africa by rail is a pipeline dream

Nukilia:
Africa is sandwiched between two evils, China and America . Trust me the lesser evil is China. The GRAND PLAN of China is to develop infrastructure in Africa via loans which the Chinese government will provide for the African countries.

This is where the challenge is; China is developing rail transport across Africa at the moment, this will aid in the movement of people across the continent and on the other hand, movement of Chinese products across the continent. In order to keep the Chinese factories running, trade partners like Nigeria with less industries and lots of unemployed youths will be forced to depend continuously on finished goods from China, this will put the final nail on the coffin of African industries .

Stop thinking China will foolishly invest in unrealistic goals like connecting the entire continent by rail . Reviving the Silk road has been hugely unsuccessful for decades and China has spent enormous time seeking the corporation of those countries that traded with her in the distant past.

Can the world trust China?

Many analysts have continued to argue that the future is bright with China leading us into it. A future where China is the most powerful country on earth will present more opportunities than dangers basically because of the ENTERPRISING SPIRIT of the Asian lion. According to them,an industrious China is more desirable than an ambitious America with all it reflex bent on having the world under its thumb. China,as we know it today,keeps projecting the image of a business-minded success-driven country leaving no room for suspicion to fall upon it,such as may be used to uncover any chicanery on its part. What is conspicuous at the moment is a China working at a breakneck speed to sit on the throne as world's most powerful. But what's not is probably a greedy China(I suspect Tyler Brown is already holding on to what appears to be the hidden picture of China)desirous of dominating every sphere of economic influence across the globe,whether in Africa or Asia. Is China a monster to be feared or another catastrophe waiting to happen? Can the world trust its neck to China's razor?

velai:
how was my question illogical? Common logic says that there is God and I believe. My religion teaches that God is all good and I believe that too. But my question is, if God is good, how come he created some people fortunate and some unfortunate? "Why did he creat that child like that?" is my question on this matter. So give me some answers without insulting me please.

Or are you an atheist? Sorry I am not one because I believe in God and I pray to God.

What makes you fortunate? Let me guess. because you're not an hermaphrodite. The innocent boy you're trying to degrade may happen to be far useful than you to the world. Please don't judge people based on their differences.

THIS IS WHAT ISLAM TEACHES US ABOUT SUCH WONDERFUL CREATURES.
Qur'an 75:39 says humans are all created from a pair ,male and female. By pair ,we are referring to both Adam and Eve.
However, there are other humans who are also of this pair but differ from the rest of mankind under certain circumstances that are regarded as strange or mysterious .
The word MUKHANAT is used to describe MEN who merely possess FEMININE FEATURES(ie ,appearance, speech,movement Beauty) but are not WOMEN. There have been found among these people extremely gorgeous ones whom are described as PRETTY or BEAUTIFUL MEN(Prophet Yusuf(Joseph),Brad Pitt,Omar Borkan, George Clooney ,Idris Elba etc) Society however is streamlined to think otherwise and to passively reject such label because it wholly ascribes BEAUTY to the WOMENFOLK only without exception. So the next time you see people like this make sure you remember that they are the exception to this social construction. Meanwhile, there are other not so good looking men who also possess feminine qualities.
THE QUR'AN ,HOWEVER, GIVES A SERIOUS WARNING AGAINST ANY ATTEMPT BY SUCH MEN TO EXPLOIT THEIR BEAUTY OR ENGAGE IN SUCH IMMORAL ACT AS HOMOSEXUALITY OR CROSS DRESSING. IT IS A CONDEMNABLE ACT IN ISLAM AND ALLAH'S ANGER IS ON PEOPLE WHO ENGAGE IN IT.
(If you're are born a man looking like a woman you are not to blame. Society will hate you ,condemn you and reject you,but you must build your trust in GOD and look inwardly to make your life a case study for success).

WHAT ISLAM TEACHES US ABOUT HERMAPHRODITISM.

The word khuntha (translated here as “intersex”) applies to a person who cannot be easily characterized as male or female, or the one who has both male and female anatomy. The word is derived from a root referring to softness, gentleness and tenderness.

In shar‘i terminology it refers to one who has the anatomy of both male and female, or one who has neither, and has a hole through which he urinates.

Intersex people(hermaphrodites) may be divided into two categories, ambiguous and unambiguous.

(a)THE AMBIGUOUS INTERSEX individual is one who shows clear indications of being either male or female, so it is known that this person is a man or a woman. There is no ambiguity involved here; rather this is a man who has something extra that was created in him, or a woman who has something extra that was created in her. With regard to matters of inheritance and other shar‘i rulings, such an individual is treated in accordance with what he or she appears to be.The ambiguous intersex individual is one who shows no clear indications of being either male or female, and does not know whether he is a man or a woman, or he has characteristics of both genders.
This ambiguity is of two types: one that has the anatomy of both genders, where other defining characteristics are present in equal measure, and one who does not have the anatomy of either; rather he has a hole (through which he urinates).
ISLAMIC JURISPRUDENCE
The majority of fuqaha’ are of the view that with regard to the intersex individual before puberty, if he urinates from a penis, then he is a boy; if he urinates like a girl, then this person is female.
After puberty, the matter is to be decided by one of the following signs:

If he grows a beard, ejaculates, impregnates a woman or has intercourse with a woman, then he is a man. The same applies if he demonstrates courage and fighting skills, and stands up to the enemy; this is proof of his masculinity, as was mentioned by as-Suyooti, quoting from al-Isnawi.

If this individual grows breasts that produce milk, or menstruates, or it is possible to have intercourse with them, then this person is a woman. If this individual gives birth, then she is definitely female, and this factor is to be given precedence over all indications to the contrary.
With regard to sexual orientation, it is to be taken into consideration when the characteristics discussed above are unclear. If this person is sexually attracted to men, then she is a woman; if he is sexually attracted to women, then he is a man. If he says that he is sexually attracted to both or neither, then the matter is ambiguous. As-Suyooti said: When the word khuntha (intersex) is used in fiqh, what is meant is the ambiguous intersex individual.
End quote from al-Mawsoo‘ah al-Fiqhiyyah

ISLAM IS INDEED BEAUTIFUL!

CAPSLOCKED:

WHAT'S THE FUN IN CREATING A CHILD AS A HERMAPHRODITE, JUST SO THAT THE PARENTS WHO ARE ALWAYS POOR IN MANY OF THESE CASES, WOULD GO THROUGH HELL JUST TO FIND A WAY TO PAY DOCTORS TO GIVE THE CHILD A PARTICULAR SEX?

DO YOU KNOW THAT THERE'S A HUNDRED PERCENT CHANCE THAT A HERMAPHRODITE CHILD WILL GROW UP TO BE A GAY PERSON IN FUTURE BECAUSE OF A CONFUSING SEXUAL ORIENTATION.. AND BE DESPISED AND STIGMATIZED FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE, BY GOD'S OWN PEOPLE?

HE MIGHT BE MOBBED AND BURNT ALIVE FOR BEING GAY, DESPITE THE FACT THAT HE WAS CREATED THAT WAY. DO YOU THINK GAY PEOPLE ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE? IT'S MOSTLY NATURAL..

BUT I GUESS GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS.

Your post is full of assumptions . I feel compelled to agree with you but for that.

Mandrake007:
here goes a Muslim talking about Christians being sold false views of islam,who doesn't know your religion endorses lots of barbaric acts from rape,violence,peadophilia,invasion,forced conversion and murder of infidels I'd expect you to be apologetic like few sensible muslims,but your staunch bigotry has gotten the best of you,no surprise at all and please don't even get me started on the history of Islamic crusades and invasion i've got a wealth of knowledge on that and I don't know where you dug up those heiresses about christianity you just typed but keep wallowing in your folly,you know the truth about your religion thank God for people like wafa sultan and her book A GOD WHO HATES and historical,factual and statistical backups of deaths which has floored and exposed your religion for the evil it is and thank God for mallams like you as well who help in reaffirming the general notion of Islam based on countenance,ideologies and attitude.

I can spare you for all of your ramblings . But your barefaced mendacity about such an important historical event as the Christian Crusades is most compelling.

First ,let it be understood that there is no such thing as "Islamic Crusades". Everyone who is familiar with this era accepts as true the wanton barbarism exhibited by the crusaders in terms of the KILLINGS of thousands upon thousands upon thousands of human beings in the cities they conquered.

Papa Almariac ,a revered loyalist of the Catholic church,is widely quoted as one of the blood thirsty crusaders . When asked to choose between pardon and death for PRISONERS OF WAR ,he yelled " KILL THEM ALL".

In contrast, the Muslim Armies under the leadership of Saladin Al Ayubi adhered to the tenets of Islam prohibiting the killing of Prisoners of war. This is how far it can go the mercifulness of Muslims when engaged in war. The prophet of Allah(Sallalahu Allehi Was Salam)admonishes Muslims to be kind to their neighbours, who often happen to be the CHRISTIANS and the JEWS. .......

It is not expedient to lead you to Friedrich Nietzsche because of how extremely low you are on the intellectual ladder. But I will consider this very brief point .

The fastest growing religion in the world is ISLAM.

Ximenez:
Even a fool knows that Islam is a religion of violence. So i don't know how you want to talk your way out of this now. You deserve only the piss that your religion give

Oh very well indeed. I'm sure you know your are that FOOL who knows that "Islam is a religion of peace".

This is what happens to you when you have poo lodged in your brain.

Ximenez:

Oh very well indeed. I'm sure you know your are that FOOL who knows that "Islam is a religion of piss".

This is what happens to you when you have poo lodged in your brain.

Ximenez:
You might have started strapping innocent children with bombs to go and kill people who accepted western education, Cos it's haram to allah, hence they must be killed.

You have a lot of catching up to do though, cos your senior colleagues are way ahead of you, hence there will be no virgin left for you.
Islam is pissful, piss be unto you.

Will it be an omission to ignore a mad man who keeps washing his palms to remove a dirt that is not there?

Is it possible you don't realise that you are a fool of the first magnitude?

Ximenez:
Are you not interested in the virgins? When will you start killing infidels to accumulate your virgins?

Eeyah. Let your brain RIP.

Mandrake007:
atleast they don't brainwash people to become suicide bombers so they can have sex with virgins in heaven,they don't brainwash people to categorize everyone who isn't in the same line of faith as them as infidels,they don't brainwash people into hating and segregating of people of other faiths,matter of fact Nigerian Muslims don't even practice real Islam travel out and see how real Muslims are,they think independently here majority of you behave like remote controlled mannequins everything about you lot revolves around tribe and religion I know you guys don't show it in a bid to be politically correct,I'm not defending Christians,they are not saints some are evil but I know Muslims so well they'll never abhor any thing evil perpetrated by their fellow muslims,go and rehabilitate your brainwashed fulani herdsmen.

I finally resisted the urge to read your post because I find you very shallow. You're extremely low on the intellectual ladder with
a very poor reasoning ability.

There is nothing strange in your ramblings considering that many fanatical Christians like you hold on to the distorted views and ignominious lies about Islam. You are also ignorant of your ignorance . Ask me how?

The real terrorists are the WHITE MISSIONARIES who came to Africa ,killed your pagan ancestors and shipped many of them to Europe as slaves. Are you aware they said they did it for Jesus?

During the Crusades ,Christians slaughtered more than 70,000 people once they overran a city . The crusades were holy wars and one of the bloodiest wars in history. But you said Christianity has no record of violence.

The Lord Resistance Army of Joseph Kony killed many people I'm Uganda ,South Sudan in the name of Jesus. But you said Christians can't be terrorists.
