Good morning fine people. Been in the shadows for some time reading comments, its high time I introduce myself. UniUyo class '10, Zoology department and A16 hopeful. Kbs468 UP GUNNERS!

I thought he was making small sense until the Boko Haram and death thing came in. He should have used another example.

Itr very simple. These women are overly successful so what do they need a man for {Cos that is the general notion}

Hello people! I'm Kola, presently in Uyo Akwa Ibom. 2B9A0B3F

Hey Kola. Reppin' Uyo too.

I love you cos you've written what I've been feeling and saying to peeps for years now.

Paradise163:
[b] Hellfire—Is It Part of Divine Justice?
Have you ever seen someone tortured? We hope not. Deliberate torture is sickening and abhorrent. What, though, of torture inflicted by God? Can you imagine such a thing? Yet, this is exactly what is implied by the teaching of hellfire, an official doctrine in many religions.

Imagine, for a moment, the following horrific scene: A person is being roasted on a hot iron plate. In his agony he screams for mercy, but nobody listens. The torture goes on and on, hour after hour, day after day—without pause!

Whatever crime the victim may have committed, would not your heart go out to him? What of the one who ordered the torture? Could he be a loving person? In no way! Love is merciful and shows pity. A loving father may punish his children, but he would never torture them!

Nevertheless, many religions teach that God tortures sinners in an eternal hellfire. This, it is claimed, is divine justice. If that is true, who created that terrible place of eternal torment? And who is responsible for the excruciating agonies inflicted there? The answers would seem obvious. If such a place really exists, then God would have to be the creator of it, and he would be responsible for what happens there.

Can you accept that? The Bible* says: “God is love.” (1 John 4 vs eight ) Would a God of love inflict torture that even humans with any measure of decency find revolting? Surely not!

An Unreasonable Teaching
Still, many believe that the wicked will go to a fiery hell and be tormented forever. Is this teaching logical? The human life span is limited to 70 or 80 years. Even if someone perpetrated extreme wickedness for his whole lifetime, would everlasting torment be a just punishment? No. It would be grossly unjust to torment a man forever for the limited number of sins that he can commit in a lifetime.

Who knows the truth about what happens after we die? Only God can reveal this information, and he has done so in his written Word, the Bible, referred to above. Here is what the Bible says: “As the [beast] dies, so the [man] dies; and they all have but one spirit . . . All are going to one place. They have all come to be from the dust, and they are all returning to the dust.” (Ecclesiastes 3:19, 20) There is no mention here of a fiery hell. Humans return to dust—to nonexistence—when they die.

In order to be tormented, an individual has to be conscious. Are the dead conscious? No. “The living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten.” (Ecclesiastes 9:5) It is impossible for the dead, “conscious of nothing at all,” to experience the agonies of hellfire.

A Harmful Doctrine
Some maintain that the teaching of hellfire is useful, true or not. Why? They say it serves as a deterrent to wrongdoing. Is that true? Well, is the crime rate in regions where people believe in hellfire lower than in other places? Hardly! In fact, the doctrine of hellfire is very harmful. Will a person who believes that God torments people view torture as something abhorrent? Why should he? Those believing in a cruel god often become cruel like their god.

In whatever way a reasonable person may look at the matter, he cannot accept the existence of a hell of torment. Logic rebels against it. Human nature is repelled by it. More important, God’s Word does not say that such a place exists. When a person dies, “he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts do perish.”—Psalm 146:4.

unscrew your phone detach the connector that connect the digitizer to the board blow it and reattach it and your phone is good to go

Will do. Thanks

To be honest, all these lists and compilations of beautiful images don't do justice for the overwhelming majority of underdeveloped Nigeria..

Sure a lot has been done and we can give ourselves a pat on the back for it, but what has been done so far is no where near the level that can be called good or impressive..

The problem with Nigerian cities is that the designers and planners don't think forward..

They build a house here a house there a building here a building there..

That's not what we need..

We need sustainable public residences that can house 170 million people today and 450 million people in the next 50 years..

What we need to build is cities built in grids like the ones in Italy and Spain and France..

Where every building is on average between 6 and 13 floors high..

These are called "condominio" and they house hundreds of families in each one..

It is crucial that we start building higher buildings and more organised..

This isn't even a matter of business anymore..

This will be a humanitarian crisis if something isn't done fast..

The cities in Nigeria are just messy..

They are very poorly designed and very inefficiently designed..

A lot of effort is being done..

That is obvious but effort alone is not enough..

You need the city to be smart too in the distribution of housing, businesses, local shops, factories etc..

Everything has to be correct from the start otherwise you are only going to build until all you have is a mess..

And we can see it already with the crazy traffic..

I concur 100.

Hi guys. My lumia 720 fell and is no longer responding to touch in some parts,but the screen is intact. Please how much will it cost to fix?

Nice! Buh replace Sokoto and Onitsha with my city Uyo.

Ibibio T.I.D, buh my guy you still never justify your thread topic.

My all time favourites: One Tree Hill and OC.

Good development cos people have died in the past both innocent and guilty. Continue to RIP Kc Johnson.

We don't need a new party but we can change the already existing ones and you shouldn't be tired about Nigeria - We are simply passing through a phase.

I couldn't agree more

Nice! Looking forward to getting one...that's if our oga at the top go allow

But seriously, as a disciplined person, I'll simply tell her to please put on some clothes.

Thank you sir. You can ask me any questions you wish to know about snail rearing/heliciculture and I'll do my best to answer.

Start as soon as you can. The Xmas period is at hand!!

Sure. Will try ASAP

[quote author=chocolateme post=35889405]My questions may be very simple and easy even to an ordinary layman. The thing is that there are still simple questions adults cannot answer yet children answer them before you finish asking.
Pls anyone that knows the answer should please share it with me here: leave Google out of this.
1: how many years makes a century and a decade?

ANS: Century =100 years
Decade=10 years.
Asking funny questions like my lil bro. Woh wether you like it or not google is your best friend or bing if you like.
