MrsChima:You wouldn't do what ![]() |
menxer:One of the best comments so far. I think the man's exaggerated sense of accumen blew off the lady's trust for him. Lalasticlala and mods we need more valid opinions. Thanks. |
greatnaija01:Who says Naija boys dont die for their lovers' rejection (or some other reasons), if u said the number of females dying over their lovers is greater than the number of men that committ suicide, I would hear you..but not that naija guys DONT at all. Madness for love knows no gender. Last time I checked, men still committ suicide over love. |
This is serious as it can happen to any guy out there. It takes more than mere 'bold face' to get over th shock at first. Do you know what it means to save 2 full years salary to purchase 99 iphones? That must have cost a hunch. Matured minds come and air your view. How should issues like this and all that relating to heartbreak be handled? |
extwoo:Easier said dan done. If na naija the next thing na to head to the nearest bush with rope for hand. Na for news we go dey hear the story. |
satelliteDISH:And what about the public disgrace and humiliation? How would you handle that? |
greatnaija01:What type of reasoning is this na..with all the 9 ladies..to do what? |
If You Were The Man What Would You Do?

yemisolar:I have no problem with Politicians in the Western world. We all know their brains are able to function to well even if they're not regenerated. But its not ssme with an African man, especially in Nigeria. You're counting the crumbs you see around all in the name of infrastructure. My dear go to the western and know what infrastructure is all about. Can you compare the things you see around to the lot of billions that are swooped into the system? Let's be factual here. Can you compare Nigeria's income revenue with the structures you see around? Don't we hear stories of embezzlemen daily? If the way our country is Ok by you, then I'm sorry maybe you should have your next vacation in Canada or UK and experience what it means to live. on the other side, how many believers are the best in their place of work? How many of the perform excellently on school?Oh no, dont get it wrong. True believers are very sincere, truthful and upright anywhere you find them. I was never reffering to church goers or lip singers or hypocrites. When I said Christians, I meant the Christians whose lives portrayed the type of life the disciples lived when they got that tag "Christians." and yes, if a Christian is in power, the people will rejoice, I'm sorry but that's the truth, and I hope you now know who I refer to when I say 'Christians'. |
Recently I told myself I would never look or speak against politicians with contempt.SO WHAT'S YOUR TAKE??
|
Shuuu...someone should just call u just like dat?? Na wa oo..u strong oo |
Now, that's exactly what I want. Magisto seem bad now after their update, and I seem to be getting Video Editor which is actually different from Movie Maker or Video Creator. Do you use any movie maker android app on your phone? Is it good? Please tell us about it. Laptop's Windows Movie Maker is cool, but I'm at home now, and my laptop is in school. I need to make a video right on the moment, so I need an android app that would do just what Windows Movie Maker does. Don't tell me to Google. I've done that, just succeeded in downloading junks. 9Apps..those indian guys are really naughty! You click and download your supposed app, only to install and see 9App application! So, if you use or know any really cool Video Creator (not editor please) or Movie Maker app, just drop the name or any other relevant info. Thanks. |
CAPSLOCKED:Oh yes. I've known the truth and the truth has set me free. When I get to the end of the road, its not for me to realise if the truth I'ved believed was actually the truth, but for me to recieve the dividends of believing the truth. |
theoneJabulani No need to bother urself bro. When we get to the end of the road all u so called atheists and whatever on Nairaland and in the world generally will at last know the truth. |
THE TIMELESSNESS OF TIME By Mescopaul The world is a society governed by ideas. The world will pay you if you are an idea reservior or a storehouse full of excellent ideas. Ideas lost are destinies wasted. Imagine if Bill Gates hadn't been born, many people's destiny would have been furtile. Imagine if Zukkerberg had been loafing about in the gutters after being drunk to stupor till date, his name wouldn't have been printed on the sands of time. Time waits for no one. A second lost can never be regained. Sit still and count with me: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7! Guess what! You've just lost 7seconds of your time doing NOTHING! Oh sorry you were counting! Lol ... And you know what? You can NEVER regain it! You don't age by years. You don't age by months. You don't age by weeks. You don't age by days. You don't age by hours. You don't age by seconds! Ooops! YOU AGE BY SPLITS OF SECONDS!! How difficult is it to split a second? Well, the truth is: As time rolls out in SPLITS of seconds, you are getting older and nearer your GRAVE. Stop right there in your tracks, look back at time, and ask yourself: How many lives have i touched? How many destinies have I changed for good? How many years do I have left to live on planet earth? Presumably a 100 years. Or 120 years? Now subtract your current age from say 120years. How many years do you have left?? Are you ready to make a decision? Are you ready to change your world? Throw away all those blame we put on others. Oh, its my father, its my mother, its the government. The country is bad, the leaders are corrupt .... Those excuses will leave you wallowing in the pit of misery and penury, worthlessness and uselessness. Men of fortune never give excuses. They never place blames on others. They have this drive to keep on moving. They know the economy is bad, but they cant just stop trying. They know things are bad, but they still put in their last card. They know life is not a bed of roses, yet they still bend their backs in their gardens planting worn out roses. And the sun will shine on the roses. They will stretch forth. The rains will refresh their leaves and the worn out roses shall blossom. Their scent shall fill the air. The fragrance shall make men wonder, and every head shall turn back to congratulate the GARDENER. He shall not bend his backs anymore. He shall sit in his throne and his bedside shall be decked with his roses. These are men that know the worth of time and ideas! So get up from your comfort zone, wipe the sleep from your eyes, don't forget the spittle dried up down your jaw, wipe that too. Take a quick shower. No time to lazy about. Put on your wears. A simple foot covering will do just fine, and don't forget your: WATCH to keep TIME! Get into the street. The sun is risen already. Brace up yourself. Don't sweat yet, the day's just starting. Look up for a moment and watch the throng. They need help. The crowd, they need ideas. Your watch, you don't have time. On your marks, set!! Off you go!!! To a race that never ends till your clocks reads 00:00:00__. And no! that's not the end of time. Time's just begun.

Electronzeez:Ok |
rexben:I promised myself never to argue any christian issue again, but I being mentioned here drew my curiosity. I was thinking you had a point, only that you were a little confused in your point, but my eyes popped wide open when I read your signature, and now I know that you're really deluded. You see. We should be careful in our meditations. We read the scriptures and start meditating and we come up with all sorts of beliefs and opinion and we think that's a brainchild, just as Seun thought that "they should start speaking up as atheists." Perhaps just a moment of meditation brought that idea of atheism to him and since then he has stucked to it thinking that's a brainchild or something. Coming back to you rexden, always try amap (as much as possible) to scruntinize ur meditations. Always ask God for the right theoriies, dont come up witha theory and u become deaf to God's voice yelling at you to cease from it. First, to what end will this theory go? You are a christian. You believe on Jesus. You believe you must be borna again to get to heaven, then what's your problem again. Must u let the devil destroy ur hope eternal bliss simply because u got an idea u thought was right? Why fight against the Bible you're reading? This is why many people make a mess of Christianity. This is why other religions mock us to scorn. We are so dividedly foolish. We are so ignorantly wise. We think we know it and wouldnt bend and let God teach us. Now just take a look at how ur signature clearly shows ur confusion and how u will go ahead to delude weak Christians: "If you continue in my words then you are my disciple. And you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free John 8:31-32. to be free you have to believe and continue in Jesus words as is in the gospels only I.e Matthew, Mark, Luke and John" Just imagine the bolded part of ur claim. So u are now a force to reckon with and u want the whole world to forsake the rest of the Bible and start reading only the gospels? To you, all the Pastors we have: Kumuyi, Adeboye, Ayo, Selman, Oyedepo are all foolish? So u mean to tell me that God would be so stupid to allow mankind to continue in error without anyone having dis ur so-called truth right from the time of Luther till now? So all the reformers, the revivalists, and all other great men who have lived this earth like gods are all wrong? Why are u doing dis to urself? Who are you to tell the world what to worship or what portion of the scriptures to read. Please be very careful. So that you wouldn't look back into time and wish u never had such a devastating meditation. Not everything is a plaything. As much as religion has done a mess to Christianity, that doesn't giv us a right, I repeat that doesn't giv us a right to open our mouth wide and start spewing gibberish all in the name of: "I searched", "I discovered". Revelation 22:19 - "And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book." I pray you wouldn't fall prey to the judgement of those that discard some part of the Bible and select other parts in preference to others. Amen. It's simple. Lets just hold on to this truth we heard from the beginning. Lets not derail. It wont be long Christ will come. Lets not deviate at the last minute and God will see us through. Be careful how you meditate. |
Lennycool:Friend don't mix up issues here. The Roman Catholic worship is a different thing from the issue raised about Horus and Jesus. If you're trying debase Christianity from Roman Catholic's pagan worship, then you've honestly missed the mark. Everyone knows that TRC is just a pagan worship that was christianised for the acceptability of the masses. We know the lies. We know the Mary and Jesus they claimed to worship is actually the Semiramis and Tammuz of Nimrod. But we're not talking about the pagan worship of Roman Catholic, but the so-called striking false similarity between Jesus and Horus. |
izublingz:I'm sorry for that sir. |
cloudgoddess:Why were you rolling your eyes so hard, hope you were not hurt? |
@Seun , bro you need help. The confusion you are in is really eating up every fabric of your thinking faculty. I've always known that when people don't want to serve God, they hide under the guise of claiming to be atheists. It's just laziness that's the problem of these so-called atheists. I don't have the time to go through all your lenthy crappy post. Religion indeed has hurt the world (not just Nigeria), but if you consider the good it has done to man in the light of JESUS every other thing grows dim in the light of his glory and grace. Atheism is a psychological jargon. You can choose to believe, or not. It doesn't change the fact. I've always told people: "It's better to play safe: You'ld make a good bargain if you believe on JESUS now, and at last discover that he really do exist rather than refusing him now, only to discover that he actually exists and by then it might be too late." You wont party forever. You wont have sex forever. You wont dress naked forever. Everything would still end someday. At that time all these pleasures you treasure would be seen as dung in your eyes. Speak to a dying shrunken old woman. Can she ever still treasure having sex all the day? Or dressing nude? Or partying? Or dancing about? No. She dont even know if there's any pleasure in those things. All she knows is that her end is near. It's just that our life on earth and what we're exposed to has made us so myopic. We do not know anything outside our nose. And we think we knew it all. Remember Plato's Allegory of the cave? That's just how we are. Now you've written a piece Seun, and you might be thinking: "Wow, I've killed them all. I've finished all these religious fanatics!" But the sad truth is that, to you, you've written something worthwhile, but in the real sense one can look at how much knowledge you lack to have composed such criticism against religion all in the name of atheism. I wonder what you'll do when you found out the truth. Just do something for me Seun, Lock up yourself in your room oneday. Take a Bible. Spread it before you and say: "God if there is a God. They said you exist and you sent Jesus to die for me. I don't believe this crap (That is if you trully don't). And if this is true, I want you to do anything that would make me believe, else I don't believe it." Have a nice day. |
The devil will always try to foil and fake the truth. Perhaps this is the work of atheists to flaw the story of the blessed saviour. Truth is power. See the following claims below and see the real truth behind them, afterwards use your tongue to count your teeth. Claim: Horus was conceived by a virgin mother named Meri, and had a stepfather named Seb (Joseph) Truth: Horus was NOT conceived of a virgin. In fact, mural and textual evidence from Egypt indicates Isis (there is no evidence that “Meri” was ever part of her name) hovered over the erect penis (she created) of Osiris to conceive Horus. While she may have been a virgin before the conception, she utilized Osiris’ penis to conceive. She later had another son with Osiris as well. There is no evidence of three wise men as part of the Horus story at all. Seb was actually the “earth god”; He was not Horus’ earthly father. Seb isnotthe equivalent of Joseph and, in most cases, Seb is described as Osiris’ father. Claim: Horus was born in a cave, his birth announced by an angel, heralded by a star and attended by shepherds. Truth: There is no reference to a cave or manger in the Egyptian birth story of Horus. In fact, none of these details are present in the ancient Egyptian stories of Horus. Horus was born in a swamp. His birth was not heralded by an angel. There was no star. Claim: Horus attended a special rite of passage at the age of twelve and there is no data on the child from the age of 12 to 30. Truth: There is no continuous effort in the Horus mythology to account for all these years, so there are no real gaps in the chronology. Horus never taught in any temple at twelve (as did Jesus). Claim:[b] Horus was baptized in a river at the age of 30, and his baptizer was later beheaded. [b]Truth: Horus was never baptized. While conspiracy theorists often point to “Anup the Baptizer” (claiming he was later beheaded), there is no such person in Horus’ story. Claim: Horus had 12 disciples. Truth: Horus had only four disciples (called ‘Heru-Shemsu’), but at some point in his story there is reference to sixteen followers and a group of unnumbered followers who join Horus in battle (called ‘mesnui’). Claim: Horus performed miracles, exorcized demons, raised someone from the dead, and walked on water. Truth: Horus certainly performed miracles (he was, after all, described as a god). But there was no mention of exorcizing demons, raising people from the dead or walking on water. Claim: Horus was called “Iusa”, the “ever-becoming son” and the “Holy Child”. Truth: No one in Egyptian history was ever called “Iusa” (the word does not exist) nor was anyone called “Holy Child”. Claim: Horus delivered a “Sermon on the Mount”, and his followers recounted his sayings. He was transfigured on the Mount. Truth: Horus never delivered a “Sermon on the Mount”, nor was he transfigured. Claim: Horus was crucified between two thieves, buried for three days in a tomb, and was resurrected. Truth: Horus is not reported to have died at all in the vast majority of Egyptian narratives. There is also no crucifixion story. Instead, Horus is usually described as eventually merging with Re (the Sun god) after which he “dies” and is “reborn” every day as the sun rises. There is a parallel account describing Horus’ death and detailing how he was cast in pieces into the water, later fished out by a crocodile at Isis’ request. Claim: Horus was called “Way”, “the Truth the Light”, “Messiah”, “God’s Anointed Son”, “Son of Man”, “Good Shepherd”, “Lamb of God”, “Word made flesh”, “Word of Truth”, “the KRST” or “Anointed One”. Truth: None of these titles are in Egyptian history, but Horusiscalled by several names you might expect for any god in mythology: “Great God”, “Chief of the Powers”, “Master of Heaven”, and “Avenger of His Father”. Horus was not called “the Krst”. This word in Egyptian means “burial” (it wasn’t a title at all). For more, goto Wikipedia and read about Horus; dont come here and post what you know next to nothing about. |

BEST ANSWER: Even when your phone is “idle”, it is still maintaining a signal with cell towers and syncing data. If you’re in an area with poor coverage, it can make your phone work harder to connect, causing faster battery drain. A bad or failing battery can also cause the phone to drain faster than it should, even when idle. |

A Crow was absolutely satisfied in life. But one day he saw a Swan. "This Swan is so white and I am so black", the Crow thought. "This Swan must be the happiest bird in the world." He expressed his thoughts to the Swan. “Actually,” the Swan replied, “I was feeling that I was the happiest bird around until I saw a Parrot, which has two colors. I now think the Parrot is the happiest bird in creation.” The Crow then approached the Parrot. The Parrot explained, “I lived a very happy life—until I saw a Peacock. I have only two colors, but the Peacock has multiple colors.” The Crow then visited a Peacock in the zoo and saw that hundreds of people had gathered to see him. After the people had left, The Crow approached the Peacock. "Dear Peacock, You are so beautiful. Every day thousands of people come to see you. When people see me, they immediately shoo me away. I think you are the happiest bird on the planet." The Peacock replied, "I always thought that I was the most beautiful and the happiest bird on the planet. But because of my beauty, I am entrapped in this zoo. I have examined the zoo very carefully, and I have realized that the Crow is the only bird not kept in a cage. So for past few days I have been thinking that if I were a Crow, I could happily roam everywhere." LESSON: That’s our problem too. We make unnecessary comparison with others and become sad. Value the things God has given you. Learn the secret of being truly happy and discard the comparison which leads only to unhappiness. |
