As.hawo no be work...

Lovely post! We should never forsake the gathering of the brethren.

harakiri:
My active brain can't cater for my basic needs? My case is in court? This thread really makes a whole lot of "sense" doesn't it?

Why should your opinion count?!

harakiri:
How does driving an SUV connect with the above topic? Derailing your own thread already?

Hmm.

Your "active" brain that cannot cater for even your basic needs!
Your case is in court!

harakiri:
Last time i checked, both christianity and islam fall under the definition of religion. In recent years both have made feeble attempts at distancing themselves from the word and "repackage" their faith as "a way of life" or "islam is peace".

Why get scared of contacting ebola when religion was kept billions of humans brain dead for centuries?

I hope you drive a hummer "jeep" genius!

Shops set ablaze, looted as xenophobic attacks spread in South Africa

Xenophobic attacks spread to Johannesburg 02:51
Story highlights
Attacks against immigrant businesses started in Durban
The attacks have left six people dead
Johannesburg (CNN)South African police fired rubber bullets Friday to disperse crowds setting immigrant businesses ablaze as attacks against foreigners spread to Johannesburg.

Chanting and singing, machete-armed residents burned down shops owned by foreigners, including a Nigerian dealership in the nation's largest city.

Immigrants carrying bricks accused police of not doing enough to protect them as businesses smoldered.

Six people killed
Violence targeting immigrant shops started recently in the port city of Durban, where two foreigners and three South Africans were killed. Residents have accused African immigrants of taking their jobs and committing crimes. The unemployment rate in South Africa is 25%, according to government figures.

A sixth death occurred Wednesday. The body of a 58-year-old foreign national was found in Verulam town, where a mob attacked the man at his home. He fled and died of his injuries near his home, South African police said.

At least 112 people have been arrested throughout KwaZulu-Natal Province for various offenses related to the violence, police said.

Social and economic issues
President Jacob Zuma said his government is addressing social and economic issues brought up by citizens. He said immigrants contribute to the nation's economy while others bring scarce skills.

"While some foreign nationals have been arrested for various crimes, it is misleading and wrong to label or regard all foreign nationals as being involved in crime in the country," Zuma said.

As the violence spread to other cities, terrified immigrants sought a resolution. Others fled, taking refuge at police stations in major cities.

"They are using this as scapegoats," said Jean-Pierre Lukamba, an immigrant from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

"Every day, migrants are living in this fire. It's not just attacks. It's institutionalized xenophobia. The government must do something. Those people aren't just mad for no reason. They want electricity, they want jobs, they want water."

'They don't understand the history of Africa'
Lukamba said he's part of an organization trying to negotiate between the two sides.

"They don't understand the history of Africa; if they do, they would know each of us, we are one," he said.

Thousands fled to temporary shelters, with aid group Gift of the Givers saying about 8,500 people are hiding in refugee centers or police stations this week because of the violence. The number did not include those who have moved in with friends or relatives.

The aid group said it has a facility in Johannesburg to help those who might need shelter.

"We are preparing aid packages for those who may journey onwards to their home countries," it said.


Police ordered to work around the clock
The violence spread from Durban to Johannesburg even though Zuma has condemned the attacks and appealed for calm.

"No amount of frustration or anger can ever justify the attacks on foreign nationals and the looting of their shops," he said. "The attacks violate all the values that South Africa embodies, especially the respect for human life."

Zuma said he has ordered police to work around the clock to protect citizens and immigrants, and arrest the perpetrators.

In Mozambique, the South African energy and chemical giant Sasol was temporarily returning about 340 South African nationals to South Africa "as a precautionary measure," Sasol spokesman Alex Anderson said.

Mozambican employees of Sasol service providers have voiced concern about reported violence against Mozambicans and other foreign nationals in South Africa and protested the presence of South African employees in Mozambique.


"We have had no cases of violence at our sites and the situation remains calm," Anderson said in a statement.

In the past, Johannesburg has been the epicenter of anti-immigrant tensions.

In 2008, dozens were killed in attacks in the poorest areas of Johannesburg. Most of the victims were Zimbabweans who had fled repression and dire economic circumstances. In those attacks, police arrested more than 200 people on various charges, including rape, murder, robbery and theft.

Look at the person I'm even trying to defend. ..

driand:
good to hear from you two but it's unfortunate that the op is so little informed and went ahead to open a thread of this nature, now if you care to know more read on.

What is God? God is the name of a supreme entity believed to be in existence by many religions, and this entity is believed to reside above the skies and is omnipresent and omniscient, and this entity is believed to be the source of the existence of the earth and everything in it.

The names of God, different languages and different religions have names to which they refer to God e.g

English, God
Igbo, chukwu
Hausa, Allah
Yoruba, olorun

Religion,

Various religious groups have their own way of worship and their own name for this same God but the fact that you were brought up in one religion shouldn't discredit the other religions, Muslims worship the same God through the doctrines of Mohammed (SAW) and we Christians worship the same God through the doctrine of Jesus christ,

Even the traditional worshipers still have a place reserved for the supreme God, so please mind the way you talk about religion on social media and try not to cause stir that may lead to mayhem.

Thank you

Allah as an ideology is the subject of the topic. Igbos used to worship amadioha until the missionaries came and the name "Chukwu" was adopted as the name for Jehovah God.
God the father of Jesus was very specific about His names and that is why the commandment says:"you shall not use the name of the Lord your God in vain"!

God being a creator begat His only Son Jesus Christ as and embodiment of all His virtues and His Word; a connection between Himself and His Creation especially mankind! He equally has a Spirit; the Holy Spirit through which He holds all His Son's body the church in perfect unity and one accord!
I cannot say the same about some arabian stone that has no protégé (quite self centered I must say), no power except the collective terrorist acts of its slaves, no creative ability hence out of beef for the true Creator, asking its slaves to destroy as much as possible via terrorist acts and can only promise; without any prelude as an assurance of the accuracy of the promise, worldly pleasures like eternal sexual orgies!

Islam!
