What you have right here sir, is a selfless humanity service.

Do you mind, when the occasion arises that I lift some/most of your thoughts here? Even words for words..?

You're free to use them.

Freely we receive from God, freely we give.

Brigance:
Then the Lord God asked me:

"if you don't question a thing, can you conclude the truth from it?"

"Honestly Lord, I don't think so." I replied.

The Lord God smiled and agreed with me. Then He reminded me of how He had to question Adam and Eve about their flagrant bellicose before he banished them from the garden, to ascertain their offense.

Specifically, the Lord God reminded me this portion of His infallible words:

Genesis 3:8-12 New International Version (NIV)

"Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the LORD
God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day,
and they hid from the LORD God among the trees of the
garden. But the LORD God called to the man, “Where are
you?”
He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid
because I was naked; so I hid.”
And he said, [b]“Who told you that you were naked? Have
you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat
from?”[/b[
The man said, “The woman you put here with me—she
gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”

The Lord concluded: "you see, I can't just conclude they have sinned, I had to ask them. Despite the fact that I knew all along they would sin. Remember I'm the all knowing God."

I became exceeedly glad with the ways of the Lord. And I decided I'd make His way my ways. In my excitement, I foolishly asked the Lord 'Can I make your ways my ways? Can I question the truth of this story?'

Then the anger of the Lord Kindled against me and His eyes burned in fury.

"I'm the consuming fire!" He boomed. And he proceeded to dig pits and pits of fiery furnace for me and my children after me.

Till today, The Lord is still digging and His only begotten son is still seated at his right arm, pleading on my behalf.

My brother, I am as worried as u are. I said I am not moved because I know "we are Nigeria". We know how to get things right even at the dying minutes

If there is something I dislike most about Siasia, it is his choice of team selection; the "my boys" issue.

Siasia has done this on several occasions and the NFF always play deaf and dumb. He is fund of having certain set of players he calls "his boys" and would always invite them at the detriment of other quality players. Such was the case when he was the Super Eagles coach in 2011 when he kept inviting below average players like Isaac Promise, Chibuzor Oknokwo, Solomon Okoronkwo and Yinka Adedeji just because he took them to d Olympics in 2008. The last time I set my eyes on Yinka Adedeji in 2009 or 2010 he was clubless and was only playing football on the streets of Agbado-Ijaiye, Adura to be precise, a suburb of Lagos. Next thing Siasia Invited him to the Super Eagles.

I have sadly noticed the trend of invited players for this U23 team. There is too much favoritism. How can players like Victor Osimhen, Taiwo Awoniyi and Junior Ajayi be the leading U23 strikers when players like Imoh Ezekiel, Isaac Success, Chisom Chikatara, Aaron Samuel and Godwin Obaje fall under this age category? Next thing he has penciled down Odion Ighalo. Recall too that Siasia brought Odion Ighalo to limelight. Ighalo was Siasia's captain at the 2009 WYC hosted in Egypt. All those likes of Ubong Ukpai to me are not even supposed to be in the list of best

The other day, I read the story of how he was battling with Amaefule's fitness. Amaefule and Amuzie's fitness problem is no issue but Leone Balogun and Kenneth Omeruo "are too injury prone" right?

Injury prone Stanley Amuzie is a preferred left back option over a more industrious and very fit Kingsley Madu.

Forumites, we are stake holders in this whole thing. Let us not cease to make our suggestions. Even if Siasia would ignore, a very high ranking NFF official or sport administrator or even technical committee member can take up Siasia's selection case.

BlackAlbino6:
[color=#000000]If sensed you replied him that way, due to the way and manner he handled the hype about the last U20 players.

Spot on bro. Recall I said players with such abilities come around once in a decade: Okocha came around in the 1990s, Mikel came around in 2000s and K.Nwakali has come around in 2010s.

I am usually conservative when rating young players. I didn't even rate Iheanacho this highly but this K. Nwakali is such an exceptional player.
In him Nigeria and Arsenal have a great asset.

Icon4s:
When ever I see this Kelechi Nwakali, I see a legend in the making. His performance against Mali at last U17 final can't just go off my mind. Men.. the way he dispossessed the opposition and initiated counter attacks. Midfielders like that only come to Nigeria once in a decade.

This hype is too much. The boy is not there yet.

ufotty2001:
the full offer now from FO is due to the opening price of today! FO suppose to open with 210.00 but open with 219.90.. i was willingly to buy @ 199.50 today but since the price open @ a high price nobody is willingly to buy @ that price.. now traders or investors are very wise! i will wait till tomorrow.. but if the same thing happen again i will divert to another stock ETI.. AND another thing that can cause that is that alot of FO investors are still with their bonus shares holding on it and ready to disposed it when the price is high.. so am not expecting the price to go up now..

Coolcash1:
My brother, it's purely profit taking. Like @godisfaithful said its a stock for the brave hearted.

Femi don use some people's money chop isiewu

Crixina:
Bro, take this guy's case already in court and argue for manslaughter, judges look for intent anyway, he didn't intend to kill her.

Sirfemi:
The basic element of a crime especialy murder is ''actus reus'' (physical action)which in this case is the slight pushing and ''mens rea'' (guilty mind or intention) if there is no intention the act is nt guilty the man cant be held liable because he did nt intent to kill d woman (no mens rea)

greenpasture:
He would be guilty of manslaughter not murder

Ruq:
Now this is how you go about enlightening. Very good thread bruv.

Hello everyone. Am an Atheist seeking to know fellow Atheist in Lagos. I feel am alone want to know if indeed am not crazy.

The religiously unaffiliated, called "nones," are growing significantly. They’re the second largest religious group in North America and most of Europe. In the United States, nones make up almost a quarter of the population. In the past decade, U.S. nones have overtaken Catholics, mainline protestants, and all followers of non-Christian faiths.

There have long been predictions that religion would fade from relevancy as the world modernizes, but all the recent surveys are finding that it’s happening startlingly fast. France will have a majority secular population soon. So will the Netherlands and New Zealand. The United Kingdom and Australia will soon lose Christian majorities. Religion is rapidly becoming less important than it’s ever been, even to people who live in countries where faith has affected everything from rulers to borders to architecture.

PastorAIO:
I want to challenge and disagree with you on this point. I feel that just as theists claim to derive their morality from their religions, so do some atheists claim to derive their morality from a Naturalist worldview.

In actual fact Morality is sourced from a more visceral impulse. It is an instinct. Ideologies may be used later to explain morality (after the fact), but in fact the process of arriving at a moral standpoint is more subtle and subconscious then deliberating over ideology.

That is why christians can see something evil in the bible and recognise that it is evil and then seek to make up excuses from it. If their sense of morality really was derived from the bible then they would feel no need to explain away why the bible is at odds with their sense of morality.

The same goes from secular humanism. Atheist Morality, even for those who claim to be secular humanists, won't always tally with Secular humanist ideology.

"Secular humanism"
The philosophy or life stance of secular humanism (alternatively known by some adherents as Humanism , specifically with a capital H to distinguish it from other forms of humanism ) embraces human reason, ethics, and philosophical naturalism while specifically rejecting religious dogma, supernaturalism , pseudoscience , and superstition as the bases of morality and decision making."
