texanomaly: Hmmm...I find this all fascinating really.

'Curiouser and curiouser'

How long will you stay in Nigeria?

Its the eye service na. The longer you pray or the more gibberish you add, the better for your audience. You need to impress them, make them feel like you and Yahweh na padi padi . If you can, try to sweat a little and shed a few holy tears. You can practice in front of your mirror.


















Or you can come out of the delusion.

texanomaly: You would be wrong.

To be modest, i'll say 99% of them. Most definitely 100% of the Nigerian ones here. I know what i'm talking about Tex. Even i only read the bible through when i started having doubts. All through my adolescence and early adulthood i only read the bible during church programs, or with some themes in mind. Never cover to cover and definitely only the good parts.

@Foly, insults aside. When you searched about ventriloquist what did you find?

Do you see any similarity between the Osayin and the video Alfa posted?
Have you found out how the Osayin thing works?

The thing tire me o. Where people are proud of their ignorance. Where people are too lazy to read anything more than 1 page long. Where people prefer to just swallow hook, line and sinker what their pastor says instead of actually reading the bible for themselves. . .

I'm telling you NONE of all these NL christians have actually read the bible cover to cover. Rinse and Repeat. All of them. . .

wiegraf: For 100N I want it to sound like Alex Ferguson or a dubbed chinese film. Either or no show.

Wtf is a wield? You're trying to use big white man's words here?

lol. I think he wanted to write WEIRD.
@Foly, don't you know what a Ventriloquist is?

texanomaly: @ those who answered my education question...can we discuss this when I come to Nigeria? I would very much like to hear more. Thanks

goot goot.

FOLYKAZE: Yoruba. And you want your machine to speak what it programmer doesn't know? Some people can be so wield.

You didn't realise he was intimating you on the act of the ventriloquists?

It doesn't have to make sense. It doesn't even have to be factually true. Just believe it or else you will burn in hell!!! Every other thing na jara.

mazaje: They know no reality outside their religious beliefs. . .Everything is ethno-religious. . .I know MANY Nigerian "engineers" that happily say that the white man used his own juju in inventing most of the machines and appliances(Mobile phones, cars, airplanes, computer, TV etc) we use to make our lives easier. . .How can you ever learn with such a crazy mindset?. . .People are happy to be ignorant and foooolish, in fact we glorify ignorance and foooolishess in Africa. . .

Yes. I have friends telling me that i read too much. That those things i read will confuse me the more, afterall they were written by humans These are university students and sometimes university graduates. There is no original thought anywhere on the streets of Nigeria. Superstition has killed us. . .

Lol. It was a female lecturer sha. Still though, i had a male lecturer then who anytime you want to ask a question, he will first of all ask you if you are born again. So i just never bothered asking questions in his class.

Yet, the same man was advising his female project students not to marry outside the Igbo tribe because. . . .

mazaje: You are a failed fear monger. . .

@Tex, you dare not suggest that religion should not be taught in school here in Nigeria. It will be war! We already have private church owned universities here where the church is being forced on you regardless of your belief.

Also the teachers and lecturers cannot even leave their personal bias out of their teachings. Imagine where a pharmacology lecturer in the university finds it difficult to teach about female contraception! I mean, a doctorate degree holder lecturing 3rd yr students yet refuses to give full info and instead turns it into a preaching session of the dangers of premarital sex. I tire o! I swear.

mazaje: Most Nigerians reason along that line. . .Everything is about what the bible, koran, pastor or imam says. . .Nothing is ever about what they feel or reason. . .

This is what annoys me most about debating or discussing with an average Nigerian. Do you guys listen to 'hard facts' on NigeriaInfo radio? You will weep at the mentality of some of the callers. The way some graduates and acclaimed Masters degree holders reason eh? Smh

People find it extremely hard to reason outside the lines of My Pastor said or The bible said, and they will all clamour for laws to be made based on biblical principles!

Wey Muskeeto?

I agree with Myjoe. Josh is not dumb per se, just a programmed religious robot. I'm sure he does well in other aspects of his life that does not require religious thinking.

Our educational system is in tatters. I don't even want to recount my suffering while doing my undergraduate final year project.
It becomes more depressing when you even see that the students themselves are not ready for a change. See the ASUU strike for example, now the students are turning on the lecturers. . .very Sad. Really sad.

The guy didn't even answer the question. Just incoherent babble.

i-smoke-weed:
How can you insult my God and I will keep silent?

You're lucky I can't catch you, I will physically abuse you if I ever do

Stewpid little boy

BOKO HARAM Alert!!!

Joshthefirst: I don't normally take you seriously again.

It seems some of you do not even know the meaning of hypocrisy.
Please go to your dictionary and find its meaning.

I just had to quote this.

Ishilove: This section sickens me. The rot here stinks to high heavens. I read blasphemy upon blasphemy and my heart quails.

May God forgive all those that have blasphemed against the name of the Lord. Feel free to keep blowing grammar, call us deluded and other high sounding adjectives, but on that day, when the comments you have made on this forum and in other places is reeled before your shocked eyes, you will remember that you were given ample warning. You were given a choice to embrace life, but you chose death.

God have mercy on you all.

these are your own words. yet you are constantly in the satanic chatbox, a self acclaimed Christian frolicking with a self professed Satanist. normally, I don't really care but see @bolded; you then turn around and say the section sickens you. what then are you doing here...daily, fraternizing with 'heathens'? its not like you are even trying to preach like my good and proper JOSHTHEFIRST. no, you are here laughing, flirting, cussing like a market woman and then later you say we have too much time on our hands or that we don't get tired, blah blah blah.

listen, [size=16pt]you are a hypocrite[/size]. read it. again. digest it and sleep on it. tomorrow, i'd like to see you in the satanic chatbox...again

Ishilove: You are trying your best to get on my nerves tonight, Troll. And failing quite woefully, I should add.

stop feeling special. trying? pfft!

for what?

is there any benefit attached to getting on your nerves? your hypocrisy stinks, daz all.

Ishilove: Yadayadayada

wiegraf: The brainless tart has something nothing other than demon possessed children/sms or gossip to offer.

Ishilove: You ain't worth the effort, jerk.

Ishilove: So says the faceless username. Of course you are the expert on brainless tarts, seeing as you are sorrounded by them and most likely will marry one and beget even more. Assshole.

And you are the brainy one here, I suppose? You are lower than the scum I drive through every day to get to work. Hell bound iidiotic reprobate.

GOOD, GOOD. LET THE BUTTHURT FLOW THROUGH YOU.

for what its worth, let me make this statement here...

NL cannot alone make someone become atheist or agnostic. it actually requires deep personal thought, personal research on world history, comparative religious study and a healthy dose of skepticism and the discarding of deeply held fears and indoctrination.

for me, I cannot imagine myself going back to Christianity after reading the bible myself and studying the origin of Christianity and the bible. it will require something extraordinary for me to 'unknow' what I already know (a lobotomy perhaps). this is not a matter of pride, it is the confidence that comes with accurate knowledge and proper thought process. I cannot and will not subscribe to fear mongering, superstition or hear say ever again. if I eventually hear a 'voice' someday, that voice better be prepared to answer a whole lot of questions, particularly why I should even start worshipping it...

@OP, for some reason I just find myself pitying you. you seem like someone who was bullied in childhood

Ishilove: Put a sock on it and stowe it, you heathen. You are beginning to get on my nerves.

sue me, hypocrite.

smh.
