Christianity EtcRe: "When A Pastor Is Into Sport Betting"- Hilarious Photo by menxer:
Why una dey shout?

Whether Na "abroad must favour my family" or "bet9ja must favour my family " all na theme.

I would even prefer the later since it is more specific and targeted than the former.

How many people get connections abroad that the supposed favour would come from?

We all can at lest relate to the favour from Bet9ja, with a minimum of #100 you are connected and stand a chance of being favoured. grin

HAhahahahahhahaha

And to all about to curse, remember a curse that is cause-less shall not come and a favour that is cause-less shall not come either.
PoliticsRe: Governors Ask Review Revenue Sharing Formula by menxer:
Is it unconstitutional for state governments to generate revenue (not just collecting taxes) by running profit making outfits/companies to the extent of not depending exclusively on FG monthly allocation for survival?

We talk of diversifying the economy, is it just at the Federal level?

What are state governments doing/can do to diversify their states' economies away from the apron strings of FG, financially?

Nawaooo. I ain't see nohing!

Are u surprised?
Don't be.

Is it not a fact that some ladies after a divorce or the death of the first husband, are still sought after and married by men, while the "fresh virgins" are still single for far too long?
RomanceRe: When A Girl Keeps Changing Boyfriends Like Clothes by menxer: 1:31am On Apr 29, 2016
I bet no lady wants to be dumped after a long time in a relationship.

Let's Look at it from another side, in the workplace what sells is experience and not the freshness of the graduate, and since no two relationships are the same, dating a lady that has been in a couple of relationships is not the same as dating a novice.

I rather marry an experienced lady than a novice.

CareerRe: Why I Dropped My Degree To Become A Taxi Driver - Abuja-based Female Taxi Driver by menxer: 7:43am On Apr 28, 2016

Honestly, how much will she earn with this job nowhuh
it will shock you to know that she earns more than most civil servants.

In my town (UYO) Keke (tricycle) operators for instance, on the average make returns of N12000/week to the owners, besides fueling and paying themselves. how much can you guess they make altogether to meet up?

assuming the keke is yours and you operate it yourself and make N3000/day, is that not N87,000.00/month (sundays not included)?

in Abuja, i believe taxi services are in high demand and the charges are reasonable, so she should be able to pay herself well.

Hate and frustration, for failing to make it to the 60 year rule time line, would not allow some of us to see that we are making progress.

A man who was sick and bedridden for years can't just start jogging and weight lifting the day after he was discharged from hospital.

Recovery is a process that needs time, and we equally need time to recover our sense of duty, honesty, patriotism and progress in line with international best practices.

RomanceRe: When A Gold-digger Is In A Relationship With A Gold-digger by menxer: 6:14pm On Apr 27, 2016
I have been following these arguments about broke ass guys and girls and come to the conclusion:

Some of our girls are/act demanding not because they can't afford what they want but because they were raised up to think and see men as the providers.

And our guys being raised up to see and think of themselves as providers tend to suffer from inferiority complex once they find themselves in a relationship with a lady that is doing more of the providing.

The male ego is a proud beast, to tame it is a worthwhile attainment.

Do you know the function of a support (pillar) in a building?

If a woman was created to be a support why the cry over dating a poor guy?

Is she not suppose to support him being what she was "created" for in the first place?

I don't think any free standing structure would need any form of support.

Proverbs 31:10-31 is an all time model for women, but in this age and time I think it's an "outdated" model. grin

what happens to the rest of the week and/or out side the church?

so ladies should dress decent within church premises and whatever outside?

RomanceRe: Guys, Can You Ever Be Faithful To A Single Girlfriend? by menxer: 7:48pm On Apr 25, 2016
hahahahahahaha

some kind question sef.
Being faithful is relative.

keeping a single girl friend or not is a function of many factors.

some guys just want to conform to societal norms with a single GF while deep within them testosterone is raging like a bull.

like i said it all depends on a lot of factors (top on the list being testosterone level), once upon a time less than 2 was not ideal, as the work load on one GF was always too much.

Another factor, lack of money to back up the testosterone can be an issue, humbling a guy to despise the things he can't afford, becoming holier than thou.

To keep and service many GFs, terms and conditions apply:
1. Play safe
2. ...

DarryOsh:
Lol. Actually, I struggle to think of a good argument in favour of polygamy. I think it has some dire consequences. I'll be happy to hear your views though
hahahahaha

since the "Word of God" is a double edged sword, the only valid argument quoted in favour of monogamy is 1 Timothy 3:1 and is equally the only valid argument in favour of polygamy. grin

come to think of it, who wrote 1 Timothy, was it Jesus? Nope.

Saul/Paul, a man schooled in law, a pharisee of the pharisees. since "the spirit of a prophet is subject to the prophet", we can infer that the spirit of his upbringing and training and observance of the law (pharisee-ism) colored his inspiration.

Did Jesus condemn reincarnation in the person of John the baptist? Nope
Did Jesus condemn the woman caught in adultery? Nope
Do you think Jesus condemned Polygamy in his time? Nope

hahahahhahahahhahaha

if Jesus condemned polygamy, Abraham, Jacob, King David, king Solomon, etc stand condemned and what would that make of Christianity?

No. according to the chart below, the population of Nigerian females only begins to lead that of males from about age 50. http://www.indexmundi.com/nigeria/age_structure.html

My point is this: for every unmarried female aged 30 - 40, there is a corresponding unmarried male. But because out society is less tolerant of unmarried women versus unmarried men, nobody talks about the unmarried men. And that explains why the unmarried women "gather in church to pray for life partner". Our society puts pressure on them.

Maybe there are other valid points in favour of polygamy, but 'population of men vs women' does not support that argument because women are not more than men.
The bolded is true since (wo)man is not mere statistics, and those "valid points" won't be palatable to some people.

Thanks for the statistics.
EducationRe: 15 Words You Should Eliminate From Your Vocabulary To Sound Smarter by menxer: 12:43pm On Apr 25, 2016
DarryOsh:
If everybody begins to marry two wives, I think there will be wife scarcity. Almost all over the world, the male/birth ratio stands around 50-50. In fact, in Nigeria, at birth it is about 51-49 in favour of males. But as they age, the number drops (men don't live as long as women cos they take more risks, drive more, more involved in military, violence, hardwork, vices etc.)

In the olden days, it may have been OK for men to marry many wives since the women outnumberd men. Most societies required men to join the army and many died in wars (like in biblical times).

Today, I don't think it's really not really husband scarcity we experience. rather, I think it's spouse scarcity. Our society is a lot more tolerant of single men. Bachelors go unnoticed. The women are not so lucky.
From your analysis, it means at say age 30-40, women out number men, which still leaves a large pool of potential wives in spinster-hood.

Are our ladies tolerant of themselves approaching 40 and still single?

How often do you find men in churches gather to pray for a life partner like women do?

As the OP, rightly pointed out, sometimes our ladies have (too) high expectations of what their "ideal husband" should be, thereby limiting the options of "real husbands" available to them (women).
EducationRe: 15 Words You Should Eliminate From Your Vocabulary To Sound Smarter by menxer: 8:00am On Apr 25, 2016
engrchykae:
One of the reasons why our grandmothers rarely experienced husband scarcity is because they were willing and ready to share their husband with co-wives but today women can inflict all kinds of unthinkable harms and injuries on potential rivals.
Polygamy will curb this unfulfilled marital menace in our society.
In churches,i feel for pretty,educated and good income but lack husbands.
Though this is a misplaced topic, I am of the same opinion.

We are deceived with the portion of the Bible that talks about a man being a husband of one wife, forgetting that it was specifically addressing a certain group of men, those that aspired for the office of the bishop. (1 Timothy 3:1)

Meaning, If one has no such aspirations, one has no business limiting oneself to one wife thereby depriving other women of sharing in the joy. grin

And our women so indoctrinated builds a fantasy of it, that is at variance with reality of living.

It's like some people can't understand that a PDP government failed to convict Tinubu when they had the chance.

Saraki is now an APC member and APC government is on his case, why/how is that a headache for PDP supporters?

Or is it still an overflow of the pain and anger towards Tinubu for his role in PDP's ouster from Aso rock?

Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’ ? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate
Becoming one flesh refers to the child, the product of the Union (sperm + ova) ,else how do you explain marriages that ended in divorce if the couples were one flesh?
