Am not trying to insert anything..

Even me I don't know

But see the problem here

Evolution try to prove the formation of life which according to you there re already lots of evidence that shows that life can actually evolve but ........ Are we to take evolution serious since "WE DON'T KNOW " how it even started in the first place or it origin.

Did you get it now

Effel tower exist but how can I explain the making of it if I don't know how the foundation started

In this senerio we aren't talking about it's existence, we are talking about it making and formation.
Is that you don't understand English or you're just incapable of learning something new? Evolution doesn't prove the formation of life. Do you need us to say it to you in your local dialect?

you are right, but I intentionally avoided the vietnamese war, it was not a war they were invited into. They jumped the gun on that one.
And again you are right, we would all suffer if not perish if an all out war should breakout. As I said before starvation is what would kill most of us, not the war itself
I agree. Some people think if a nuclear bombardment occurs in North America and Eurasia that some how Africa will not feel the impact, forgetting that weather patterns are intertwined globally. When Chernobyl went critical in the 80's some of it spilled into Europe and is still affecting some things there and this for something that was eventually controlled. There'd be nothing to control the fallout from nuclear war.

Shows how low your IQ, because if it's about condemnation i won't speak consolingly to the OP who denounced her faith due to what she felt is wrong.
You and i have been through this before and from what i could discern you're the one arguing blindly after seeing the sensibility in true faith.
This OP felt there's no practical sense in the faith she professed so i can't condemn her! smiley
LoL did I say you condemned the OP? Can you see why you stand condemned by your own words? You started insulting me for what you probably didn't even understand. LoLz.

As the war rages in Ukraine, many have turned to the United States of America and called the united states weak and afraid of Russia.

Only people who dont know history would make this postulations.

THE UNITED STATES REFUSED TO GO TO WAR IN THE FIRST WORLD WAR AND SECOND WORLD WAR UNTIL THEY HAD VERY GOOD REASONS TO ..... until it directly affects them

World War I [/b]started in [b]July, 1914 and for over 3years that the war raged, The United States did not join the war. Until December 1917. WITHIN a few months of USA joining the war, the won the war for the Alies.
They only joined because Germany submarines destroyed some cargo ships of the United states


World War 2 started in September 1939 and for 2 years the United states refrained from joining until 1941 when they were provoked by the Japanese Kamikazes when they bombed Pearl harbor belonging to the United States.


Is Joe Biden weak and afraid?

Joe Biden is not weak or afraid, rather he is applying a lot of wisdom and restraint because, war is costly.

Only a fool will rush into a fight without counting the cost. Winning is not the issue, the issue is the cost of winning. Even if usa wins this war, it is guaranteed that they would lose millions of lives and lots of their civilization from nuclear strikes. Russia is guaranteed to lose millions of lives and all major cities too and it is only foolishness for Putin to not care about the impact it would have on his own people.

What would happen if the United States gets involved?

1. The war would start without anyone using Nuclear weapons, chemical weapons or biological weapons.

2. Gradually biological and chemical weapons would be introduced to quickly bring victory.

3. Finally nuclear weapons would be used and it is guaranteed all parties would suffer. Even Africa.

Africa would be affected by the nuclear clouds and the rains that it would bring.
There would be nuclear ash blowing all around the world and clouding that would drastically drop the earth's temperature and bring in the nuclear winter.. agriculture would suffer and billions would die from starvation.

Those of you that think this does not concern you or you think it is childs play, you obviously ain't thinking at all. You think this is about supporting putin or fighting america? You think you are safe and all that matters is you typing on nairaland and mocking those involved now.

The cost of a nuclear war is the lives of billions of people, no one would be spared, not USA, not Russia, not even Africa.
Not always. They went into Vietnam after the French and fumbled, Afghanistan and Iraq was the same. The US military seems to have pretty good doctrines for conventional warfare but always get bogged down when the enemy is utilising unconventional tactics and strategy. I think the US will knock the teeth out of Russia in a straight up conventional fight but Russia is more likely to utilise dirty tactics in real life and would probably stall the US military juggernaut on the battlefield. Let us hope we never get to see a fight between them because make no mistake everybody will feel the impact of the fight.

The woman was married to the man at the time of his death, so there is technically nothing wrong with what she did. undecided

Being in charge of the bills does not give one legal guardianship so the in-laws are wrong in assuming they should have been consulted on the matter. So the in-laws should probably work on accepting their loss and moving on from this. undecided
Yes she was within her legal rights but good sense would have you inform someone who is paying for something when a decision to be made about that thing. I suspect she knew they would kick against her decision that is why she didn't inform them.

Oh you don't take it literally but you've been graphically referring to it since it was mentioned. The relationship was already done by me before your perceived task. You fight back even when you didn't will or plan to and you find nothing wrong there. In fact, you are seeking to prove that you must seriously fight with cockroaches. Sinners are a distortion of God's plan for Earth, they will be judged after these thousands of years of divine mercy.
You brought 2 different analogies and both of then present existential threats to a human being so if you don't think there is an existential threat to your god why are you using such analogies and getting frustrated that I am holding you to your words? I didn't force you to use those analogies, you provided them by yourself.

Sinners require war to eliminate?

The bat in face analogy showed you you can be provoked to fighting even when it's not your will. It's funnily pathetic that you took it literally. You'd fare better if you took God's Word more seriously. You kill cockroaches in your house why? Why not just leave them and let them be? Why so wicked and serious? Anyway, you already said that they threatened your existence. SMH.
How can you say I took it literally when I put metaphorically in brackets? You are the one using an analogy and when tasked to relate it to your god you become overwrought and start misbehaving. LoLz. We kill cockroaches because they can pose a serious health risk to us. What risk does the god face? How do humans threaten his wellbeing?

The highlighted is the difference between you and this OP.
You can see how i commended her for her courage to come out and tell the world that she no longer believe in what she can't explain.
She stopped believing in what she knew many still believe and she's not accusing anyone because she's aware that it's not a matter of just one man.
But you didn't stop at that instead you're trying to accuse people who still hold onto what you formerly believe as well.
So you deserve what you got! wink
The accusations levelled against you have nothing to do with you believing whatever you believe but you trying to spread misinformation or trying to pass falsehood as truth. You are a known fabricator of stories so don't try to use your religious affiliation to cover your misdeeds.

And you think God will judge you for fun? You think you're going to die every time a cockroach in your house doesn't die. That's most ridiculous. Jesus Christ already dealt with the problem. He saved us.
You are the one who brought up the issue of bat to the face or don't you understand that a bat to the face is not a contest between roaches and humans? So the question remains directed at you is the god gonna die because humans are doing what they do?

Lol, cockroaches don't threaten your existence in the context of my illustration. Jesus Christ was already sent to deal with the problem and He has finished that already.
They do as vectors of disease, we don't just kill cockroaches for fun. If Jesus was sent to deal with a problem then he obviously was not successful if he then will be coming with an army.

Yeah that's is my problem with evolution.
I actually have problem with it's limited scope , yes for something that try to explain the formation of life should Also try to explain it's origin hence it's still far from the truth.

Is like trying to explain the making of a HOUSE and you started after the THE FOUNDATION HAVE ALREADY Been built by whoever or whatever you can't explain built it ,, so in this senerio you have no business trying to explain how the house was built in the first place
Oga it doesn't explain the formation of life.

Did he explain evolution from the stand point of origination and if he can't do that then is still a mere speculation.
Why is it so hard for you accept a simple fact? Evolution does not talk about the origins of life, why must you want to force it to say something about the origins of life? Your lack of satisfaction with its limited scope is not a problem with the theory, it is solely your problem.

Mere annoyance indeed. Like pests and cockroaches merely annoy you and you smile sheepishly. You simply fight back with insecticide or pesticide. It's a little war for you because you are so big, but it's usually an annihilation for the poor cockroaches right? It's a similar illustration. What we call an army will do its work with a simple sword in the mouth of their Leader Jesus. Read Revelation 19
By inference you are admitting your god has limited abilities, he cannot think of any other way to deal with this problem. Another point is cockroaches do represent an existential threat to me, you are gonna need to demonstrate how human beings represent an existential threat to your god that warrants such a response.

DeepSight:
One thing I find with almost all theistic discussants on this subject is a dismissal of animal pain and suffering with respect to the issues raised. Any close observer of animals knows that many animals experience grief as well, just as surely as they experience physical pain, and yet their suffering is always lightly dismissed when these issues are discussed.

I will never forget the video of the hyena who goes after the testicles of a Buffalo, rips them off and starts feasting even as the Buffalo wails in pain. This is nature at work - and you cannot blame "original sin" for this kind of suffering. You cannot blame "duality" in the lower worlds for this kind of suffering, apologies to Benodic. It is just what nature is - brutal and heartless, simple.
We are naturally clannish, the suffering or death of those closest to us has more impact then those far from us talk less of an entirely different species of being. We may have learnt empathy but I think our general capacity for it gets quickly exhausted and we hardly have any for the other species that shares this planet with us. The religious often weaponise this clannishness to sometimes an absurd degree.

Please guys, I have something bothering me so much, I will really appreciate it if I can get a matured response.

These might be long, but please bare with me

There is this girl have been dating since March 2021. Although, we met in University days and we have been dating since 2017, but because I was graduating and she has 1 more year to spend in the school, I left her and travelled to Lagos to work, because I got a job in a company in Lagos, immediately I graduated. I needed to concentrate on my future so I told her I want to pause the relationship to focus, but I will definitely be back for her, I promised her this. She was a virgin then!

After working in the company for 2years, I also learnt some IT skills online while I was working in the company, and I was earning cool money from it, so I decided to quit the job and focus more on the online business.

My business have been doing well and I have about 2 other virtual assistant helping me out, anyway I was kind of comfortable, so I thought of fulfilling my promise to my girlfriend. I called her one morning, and she was shocked! We chatted a bit and I told her I want us to see urgently, we schedule a date for her to meet me in the hotel, because I was staying in Lekki and he stays around Surulere, I wanted an hotel close to her house, so she can return early.

We met at the hotel and I can see she missed me so much, around 3pm I told her I'm back and I want us to continue dating and I'm ready to settle down, she agreed and we have been dating, all this happened around March 2021. Around April, I travelled out for about 2months, but I was very communicating with her, and when I got back around June, I discovered she had sex with another guy in May. Now, I wouldn't say she did it because of money, because I pay her 20k every month for upkeep, sometimes I just pay her 30k! She is not a wayward girl though, and she is not a type that sleeps around with guys back then in school, but once i came back into her life, I see a different girl entirely, when I came back she wasn't a virgin anymore, it's not my problem anyway, because the truth is I never forgot her during all those years I left her behind.

I didn't tell her I knew she cheated on me, but all I do tell her was that she did something bad to me and I want her to open up to me about it, but my girl kept on denying it, she sworn with her life, that she didn't cheat on me, that night I was shocked. Then, I didn't talk about it again till September, I gave her those months to regret her actions and confess to me, but she never did, also I didn't stop helping her financially, I still pay her monthly for upkeep. I know you will be wondering why I give her money, right? This girl was with me and loyal to me when I had nothing, like nothing at all! She was raised by a single mother and she is struggling a lot, after graduating she decided to go for Hair Stylist training, that is where she is currently. So I just give her money monthly just to stay strong.

So around September I decided to tell her she cheated on me, although it was that once, she begged, cried and told me she was drunk and regretted it, she told me she doesn't want to tell me because she knows I will end the relationship, well to be candid I love her so much, so I decided to forgive her, but since that day, trusting her was very very difficult for me. Although, I do watch her and since then I have never seen anything of such from her.

January 2022, her mother stopped her from coming to my place, she wants me to come see her first before she can allow her daughter to come visit me again. So, I went to see her mom last month and I made my intentions known to her, I told her I will want to marry her daughter and she said she is okay with it, if her daughter is okay with me.

This girl is my type of girl but, she has some behaviours that sincerely I don't think I can deal with.

She has this mindset of "A woman should be equal to a man".

She doesn't respect me, she chats with random guys and if they invite her for outing, she goes with them, even if I tell her not to go! When she visits me, she says I must join her in doing the house chores, she will say "It's either you clean the house and I will wash the plates and cook, or she wash the plates and cook, while I clean the house". And sometimes if she wants to cook for me, she will want me to come to the kitchen with her and do some works, maybe Grind pepper with blender or slice onion, if I dont, she gets annoyed, saying will she be the one to be doing all?

She did something that annoyed me this morning, around 6am today I went to the filling station to get petrol, well she knows I eat early always, maybe 6am or 7am, I would have taken breakfast, but she has never dished me food at that time, I always do it myself whenever she is around. When I got back from the filling station, I still met my girlfriend on the bed pressing her phone, I told her I'm hungry and I will want to eat Spaghetti with tomato sauce, and she replied "Baby, please cook it yourself, you said I'm your queen, pamper me na" shocked Really? What does that have to do with you cooking for your fiance?

Well, I was annoyed, I went to the kitchen and prepared the food myself, the truth is when the food was ready, I only dished my own and ate, she said "What about her? Won't she eat?" I didn't answer her!

Aside from this, sincerely sometimes she talks to me rudely, and one thing she and I knows is that she is very very stubborn and not ready to submit to any man. Sincerely, this attitude is making me scared of settling down with her, I want to propose her this year and do the marriage rights but with all this behaviours I'm thinking the marriage will be hell for me.

When she came over yesterday, I prepared food for her before her arrival, and I served her, all she could say was "What is this? The food taste bad! Is this food or poison?" She never gave a good compliments about the meal, yet she finished the food and went for second round.

Last night before we went to bed, I told her to warm the rice and the stew, she said it won't get spoilt that she will do it in the morning, I asked her if she is sure, she said Yes. And I went to the kitchen before preparing my Spaghetti, I saw the rice is already bad and can't be eaten, I showed it to her and she was like "haaa she doesn't know it will spoil"

Also, the chicken I bought yesterday to cook her the meal, I couldn't use all, I left some in the pot, and I forgot to warm it last night, my girl saw it while washing the plates this morning, and she was like "What is this?" I told her chicken and she said "And you didn't warm it" she left it there in the pot like that without doing anything to revive it. Before I went to the kitchen to do it myself!

She only washed the plates, bath and went to church this morning, she didn't arrange the bed, nor sweep the room littered with all we ate last night. I'm sure of the message she is passing to me... "Have washed the plates, you clean the house".

Please guys, I want to propose her around August and settle down with her in November, but this behaviours are the things turning me off.

Will she changed and act normal when we get married, or this will continue? The guys she chat with, which I told her I don't like it, she replied that "She will never and ever leave them". All these types of attitudes and not showing me respect, do you think she will change after we get married or she will continue?

Please guys, I'm very confused here
You really didn't say what qualities of the girl draws her to you, the whole post was just one long complaint. With what you have written, me I can't see what you are confused about.
