How did you learn it?You get preek?

I'm in the medical field and have basic knowledge on urology. Any other questions?

Imagine jailing someone because you're too butthurt to accept the fact that he doesn't believe in your invisible sky daddy. Why is it that most religionists (especially Muslims) are often so insecure, intolerant, hypocritical, caustic, and overall just absurdly unintelligent?

This guy is still hallucinating after 19 years. Lol.

Sounds like a reach to me. I think there are other major factors more worthy of note like family planning resources, and socioeconomic conditions for instance.

From what I've learned, ED can either be physical or psychological. You need to be sure which one it is.

So I was helping my four year old daughter today with her home fun, reading the queens primer given by her school, and I was shocked to my marrow at some of the words and sentences these kids are being psychologically indoctrinated with into homosexuality. Children were made to say a sentence like "LET US BE GAY"
I was alarmed and had to immediately call the owner of the school to lay complaint and she too screamed blood of Jesus, that she always go through all materials before handing out to the teachers but this very one being the popular "queens primer" she never expected such to be inside and she had returned several books in the past on social studies that contained homosexual contents like two dads and two mums etc. She even told me some school owners get paid huge sums of dollars to intentionally circulate these materials in their schools!
She thanked me and promised to withdraw the "new queens primer" from her school.

Dear parents, always be aware of the information your kids consume cos nowadays you dont have to be in us or uk for your kids to be at risk of indoctrination. Be alert

This ridiculous write-up here is the reason why people need to learn to read and expand their vocabulary, so that they won't go on public platforms and expose their ignorance in such a crass manner.

Mr man, the original meaning of the word "gay" simply means to be "happy". You're welcome.

Creation, strength and alignment.

Isn't there a Literature section for this sort of stuff?

Nobody knows, just like nobody has any memories of where they were before they were born. Unless we stumble on to interesting information in the future, this will remain the state of affairs.

I don't judge people who are attracted to members of the same gender because I understand that biology and life in general is very complex with lots of variations and dynamics in nature. Personally, homosexuality disgusts me because I can't fathom having feelings for another woman, but that's just my subjective perception, which shouldn't dictate how others live their lives.

I can handle being friends with people who are gay or lesbian. As long as they're not getting me involved or intruding into my personal space, why should I hold any grudges towards time. Life is too short to worry or obsess over what other humans choose to do with their private parts abeg.

Bunch of jokers.
We too like talk for this country.

I'm all for inclusivity in political offices, but special focus should be directed towards tangible results from these offices that will reinforce confidence in the government.

Didn't put much thought in it
Title plus actual name
Minus surname

It's stupid. It's childish. It's unproductive. In some rare cases, It's also a telling indicator of joblessness, low self-esteem and depression.

Some people here know more about their favourite musician or Big Brother housemate than they know about their own wife and kids.

Seriously sit down and ask yourself this question from an existential point of view. Why do you really care if Mr. A is getting married? Why do you care if he's getting a divorce?

On an existential level, how does any of this information affect your own livelihood and well-being? Mr. A doesn't even know you exist as a person. You're just another number in one of his endless lists of generic fans.

It's okay to be current on what's going on in the entertainment industry but there should be a healthy level of engagement with these information. Some of y'all take it to the level of pure and insane fanaticism.

Just because you THINK that someone knows how to sing, act, or do skits etc, doesn't mean that you should base all your opinions and even your entire personality on them.

A good number of them are not just poor role models, they're clueless and definitely do not qualify as authorities on a vast range of subjects besides music, film or whatever else they do.

Please develop a brain of your own. Enjoy the media (movies, shows, songs). Give props to the creators, but don't make them into a pantheon. To the Christians, know that you're defying your God's commandments by turning these celebrities into small gods.

If you read this and felt insulted, maybe you should ask yourself why you feel insulted if what I'm saying is the simple truth.

Magnoliaa:
I'm sorry about your loss.

Seeing what you've gone through and the subject of the thread, are you comfortable putting such an intimate and personal detail of yourself on a troll-filled forum such as Nairaland?

I would think you'll be more cautious of posting...more of your life events online as you've been on the receiving end of the downside of social media?

Toh.

I'd argue against posting any intimate and personal details of yourself on any social media platform at all. Just surface level.

There's no absolute answer for this question because it depends on the individual's aims and objectives for posting. Some are just showing off or looking for validation. Some others use social media like a digital diary for preserving memories.

PapaNnamdi:
My personal doctor,
Do not be offended if my statement was condescending, I am blunt most of the time


Okay, listen, before studies proved these valid points :

Acquired immunity
When the body is exposed to an antigen, the immune system creates antibodies to defend against it. This process is called acquired immunity, and it can help the body recognize and fight off the same invader in the future.

Regulatory pathways
Exposure to a variety of organisms helps the immune system learn to balance attack and tolerance mechanisms. This helps the body avoid overreacting to harmless allergens or itself.

Immune memory
The immune system can "remember" germs it's been exposed to, even if it's never seen them before. This memory can help the body fight off infections more quickly.
I already knew it through experience from illnesses and diseases contracted.

Although most pathogens are dangerous when one is exposed to them, the hemorrhage virus, some classes of bacteria and so on,
So yeah you are right, (just so peace will reign, I don't actually mean it😋)

But if I see bacteria in person, I am hugging it and taking it home to live with me and my family,🌝

Yawn.

It's cool that you've managed to memorize the CliffsNotes version of immunology. Now if only you'll be intellectually humble enough to read the actual textbook. If bacteria were so harmless against us, then it means we should practically be metahumans.

At any rate, your experience with illnesses is about as valuable as a toddler's understanding of calculus. Thank the heavens your beliefs are not widely accepted within the public health community.

PapaNnamdi:
It's the same my dear,
You just don't think for yourself or think outside the box,

U follow what you are taught hook line and sinker,

But for a lady to know small book, in this generation we are in can only mean you are above 30, cos no lady below 30 knw book this 2024

So I will just pat your back,
Just don't follow what you are taught, most times what you know is right and what you are being taught is wrong,

The more the exposure the stronger the immune system, take it or leave it.

Kizzes

Oga this has nothing to do with "thinking outside the box". My argument is very simple: we need to acknowledge the proven dangers of bacteria and the importance of taking precautions to minimize exposure. Your problem is that you're just uninformed, if not I don't see why you should be engaging in a discussion about health without regard for facts and evidence. Science doesn't establish facts based on anecdotes or personal experience, so if you like tell stories from now till tomorrow. It won't matter if your stories are not in line with the general scientific consensus on health standards. Your chauvinistic comment about ladies knowing book or not knowing book is also very unnecessary and it just shows that in addition to being stubbornly ignorant, you're also a very condescending human being. It's not a good look for you, I'm just saying.

PapaNnamdi:
Ever heard of immunity/ immunization/ vaccination
What do you think is being injected into the body?
A bacteria is rendered harmless once it's embedded in your immune system,
The more exposed ur system is to varieties of bacteria, the less likely the body gets sick from an encounter a second time,

Nobody can survive a bacteria attack unless he has been previously exposed
The reason most bacteria seem harmless to us in Nigeria is because we have been previously exposed to them growing up,
So yes bacteria can be harmless depending on the being in question

Stop quoting me,
It's one thing to read a book it's another thing to understand it's content.

I don't even know why you're still trying to argue. You believe your neighbor's child's immune system has grown resilient over time due to constant exposure to dirt and germs. No problem. But please get it into your head that you're not making any actual scientific argument against the inherent dangers of bacteria.

There are many factors that can affect the way you respond to illnesses. Starting from the type of genes you have, to your diet. In fact your overall health in general dictates how susceptible you might be to certain diseases. Your use of vaccine as an argument is not good enough because vaccines usually work by introducing a weak or inactive form of a pathogen to the body that stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies without causing illness. It's not the same thing as just being exposed to bacteria, which can lead to infection and disease. This is just you conflating your own ignorance with basic science.

I don't derive any joy in quoting you Mr man. Remember that you quoted me first. The point you are trying to argue here just makes no sense. Let's even assume that your statement about Nigerians being granted immunity to these kind of diseases is an absolute fact. So what? Are you now saying that because you think we're automatically protected from illnesses that we should throw all caution to the wind and not take precautions to minimize our exposure to harmful bacteria. No seriously tell me, what are you really arguing here?

If you don't care about your health, I care about mine. And I'm sure many people reading this topic care about theirs too. Abeg let's try to promote healthy living. Let's not take life and nature for granted.

Tricky situation. Brother could be making up the story though. Facts and evidence need to be presented.

PapaNnamdi:
Nobody cares about your response,
Wake up

If you truly didn't care, you wouldn't feel the need to respond. Your funny story only proved that some people can survive in spite of their environment, not that bacteria are harmless. Next time, read a science textbook before talking about things you don't understand.

optimusprime2:
Lemme shock you, most bush meat you see were initially caught by the dogs of hunter's.

Thanks. Now it's my turn to shock you. Your statement is actually correct, but it's not correct for the reason you think it is. Many of you on this thread are acting as if there is zero risk of bacterial contamination in this scenario.

I should probably start by informing you that foodborne illnesses in remote or resource-constrained areas are often underreported or misdiagnosed, which means that we don't even have a complete picture of the risks involved in the first place. There's also the fact that zootonic diseases (transmitted from animals to humans) are more prevalent now than ever before thanks to multiple changes in our environment that has altered how disease and disease pathogens work and/or function over thousands of years. Changes brought about by habitat destruction, climate change etc. and it's because of these factors that modern health standards are highly prioritized across the globe. These are not fantasies but hard facts of life nowadays. Bacterial contamination is very real my dear.

Trueprophet91:
Bacteria does not survive heat
I don't know any microbe that survives 100°C

Actually many bacteria can survive high temperatures, especially in spore form, and even if the bacteria itself is killed, its toxins might still be present.

PapaNnamdi:
Bacteria no de kill us for naija, else we all go don die from COVID.


I still remember my Togo neighbor 1year old pikin , akuvi, baby go crawl enter gutter begin chop the sand, way back in surulere, I thought she was gonna die, now she is in her teens with pointy boobs and firm ass nobody go believe say she chop gutter sand, forget bacteria

I don't know if you're joking or you're being serious but such a ridiculous belief does not merit a serious response from me.

Evere heard of bacterial contamination?

Oga your wife no be vigilante. She's not your personal bodyguard. If she doesn't wish to involve herself in wahala, it's her business. You get mouth, use am talk. You get hand, use am fight. You're a man. No drag innocent woman enter your mess.

In the end, we will all die. And life after death is not certain, so make the most of it while you can.

luminouz:
K

Good. You're welcome.

I believe that relationships are mostly about using others to satisfy your own emotional, physical, etc needs. Selfless love may exist but it's very rare.

From one fantasy to another.

luminouz:
Women who are quick to insult other people's mothers never respected theirs.

Any logical person would concentrate her attacks on the guy rather than his family but you ain't logical

Let's do some logic then. Shey you did syllogisms in Logic 101?

Premise 1: All women are useless (as claimed by ZolotuaLorenzo)
Premise 2: ZolotuaLorenzo's mother is a woman
Conclusion: ZolotuaLorenzo's mother is useless.

If you can prove that this is not a solid deduction based on the available premises, then your objection stands and the conclusion is wrong. If not, then I'll have to assume that you are just a pretentious and dishonest individual possibly hiding his misogynistic tendencies behind his fraudulent understanding of "logic".

At any rate, I don't care what anybody here thinks about men or women. Personally, I think it's stupid to make blanket statements about any gender. I just wanted to show the boy the implications of his argument, in case he didn't realize, that he just wilfully insulted his own mother.
