Evil Brain: If you read OP's post to the end, you'll see that he's trying to claim that GEJ's agenda is not that different from Obama/Clinton's abd that he is trying to empower the masses. Unfortunately, this cannot be farther from the truth. The fact is that whenever there has been a clash between the interests if the masses and those of the corrupt ruling class, GEJ has sided against the people every single time.

He allowed subsidy cheats to rob the country blind for over 2 years and when the government eventually got broke, he decided to make the masses pay the bill instead of going after the thieves. Even after the January mass protests forced his hand, he's still dragging his feet over prosecuting the these people (all of whom are well known to him).

He's an Ijaw man, yet he has done nothing to rein in the excesses of the oil companies in the Niger Delta. In fact, after the last major oil spill, his oil minister was practically leading Shell's defence and the government completely accepted the company's damage estimate without question to the shock of international environmental groups. When those same environmental groups caught Shell lying about the amount of oil they spilled, GEJ's government did nothing.

Even though the government is barely solvent, he's done next to nothing to reduce the insane allowances government officials get, to trim the number of useless staff or cut the bloated recurrent expenditure budget. Instead, he raised income taxes earlier this year, and instituted a series of clever schemes to milk more money out ordinary people such as the CBN's "cash-free" fines (a thinly disguised tax on individuals and businesses), the pointless new number plates and so on.

From where I'm standing, every accusation the US Democrats have made against the republicans also applies to GEJ, only 10 times worse. The republicans tax the poor and give to the rich, while GEJ gives the rich a licence to pillage all they want.

You tell me which is worse.

vedaxcool: I did not lock anyone in the religion section.

SimonAndal: Great speech. I just love the way he painted the republicans as evil vampires (which they are). Pmsl!

frosbel: Hmm not really, the qualification for the Job I had in mind requires a Phd in Giberishology and MA in Trollonomics. It is preferred that you may have attended one of the highly valued universities of internet addiction.

For added advantage, professional certifications in religious jargon , bullying and misrepresentation of facts, will be highly appreciated.

seriallink: e be like say una want make 9ja people stone una for blasphemy

frosbel:

Send me your CV, I will see if we have anything here for idle hands !

Ihedinobi: If this is so, would you say that which each successive generation there is a reduction is dispersion of genes such that siblings grow closer and closer in identity genetically?

nakash: I have not claimed those arguments as my own. I gave a link to the original author.
Thats good enough for my standards.

Bludeville: I'll be frank with you , Nigerians are not 'open-minded' enough for that kind of thing. All they would do is point fingers and scream that you're the devil. I respect a man's choice and support when a person refuses to pray or believe in the existence of a higher power and for that, most people view me as a devil's spawn and possessed even though I'm a christian. I wonder what would happen to an atheist if he/she walked into my circles. They would sprinkle holy water, raise crucifixes and shout incantations at you

Delafruita: it sounds good.however,what platform do you intend to employ to achieve this?one lone debate might be ineffective in making atheism acceptable.a good debate might bring personal satisfaction especially when its won,however,the focus should be on the thousands and millions who cant "come out of the closet" of religion to embrace atheism or agnosticism.i prefer to lump both up with the term "humanism" but despite that,a lot of people despite their doubts about religion are afraid of the stigma that would be attached to them if they turn their backs on organized religion.a friend once left islam and embraced ifa worship which resulted in his father disowning him.when the father died,the dude wasnt allowed to attend his burial despite been the first child.

if you want to make a mark,then focus should be on making all religion and even irreligion acceptable.atheists should be free to express themselves and humanism should be freely practised.sometimes,it helps to create a movement or organization of humanists(though i think some exist) so as to create a forum where humanists can face up to their belief without stigmatisation

lilcutie8916: Wow i am not shocked because the devil have taken control of ur live but there is still hope for u guy !!!repentance!!! Macdaddy i know u must definetly like this kind of blasphemous jesting.

Image123: this op wants to die young by all means

Ihedinobi: lol.......really, man. You're real funny. Perhaps you should study it up a bit.

Your answer amounts to this: the offspring are each unique combinations of the parents' genes and essentially subsets of said genes. Have I got you right?

Niflheim: of course alot of people will be interested in it?we used to do these debates at unilag,i remember the day 7 christian boys tried to beat me up with 2 christian sisters encouraging them,for a statement i made about the bible,they said i should bring evidence from the bible,and i showed them and they all left one by one,sad and confused!!!

Jenwitemi: What good would this do when everyone have dug their heels in very deeply on both sides?

thehomer: I think it would be a good idea though I don't know if it is something that people would like to see.

CrazyMan: Wao Mr Anony would be coming...this sure would be a hell of a debate.

If I may ask what do you intend to prove?

Do you really think you can convince Mr Anony that God doesn't exist...or what topic are planing to discuss on if I may ask?

CrazyMan: Hmmmmm...this your atheism is really getting out of hand.

Just because you have google and wikipedia on the tips of your finger for reference purposes whenever you're involved in a debate on Nairaland doesn't mean you would be able to convince a servant of God that his master doesn't exist.

But I would look forward to that day...I feel its a welcome development which I believe would draw you to the feet of christ once and for all.

Reyginus: Lololol. Y na?
