Impeach Buhari now! |
You're right Fayose, Buhari is the main problem Nigeria has, the same way you're the main problem Ekiti State has! Nigerian politicians are the most corrupt and st*upid in the world. |
wrongnumber:Yes, I'm a guy. I don't need to be a woman to disagree with an unfair thread about women by an as*shole. You claimed I got "the message twisted", without actually stating what exactly I got "twisted"! It seems you've the same sick ancient mentality with the OP. You should be ashamed of yourself! Shame on you! |
richidinho:That's why most northern thieves are not prosecuted. Northerners are the most corrupt looters in this dying country! So there's a good reason why only northerners are appointed as EFCC chairmen. Northern thieves are the main reason this country is so f*ucked up. |
So useless Nigerian Cultists have taken their stupidity to Malaysia? |
wrongnumber:You mentioned me in your comment. I addressed the topic even though the thread was a st*upid one. My point was logical to logical thinking people. If you f*uck up, I would tell you f*ucked up, that' who I'm. I don't mince words. I cautioned the OP because he advised women to tolerate their partners' infidelity to ensure a happy relationship! How st*upid was that?! Can he tolerate his partner's infidelity to "ensure a happy relationship"? I guess his response would be, "NO". No sane person would create such a nasty sexist thread! |
@Toks2008 Complete rubbish!!! Advising women to just endure their cheating husbands to be happy in their marriage is the most egomaniac gibberish I've ever read in my life. You're probably a f*ucking cheater who expects every woman to tolerate your f*ucking pathetic cheating life! You should go and bury your dumb and empty head in the sand in shame, as*shole! Let me ask you id*iot this, would you tolerate having a cheating wife? It is because of id*iots like you that made it difficult for women to trust good men! And to say that a woman must be good in the kitchen and bed to have a happy marriage, is the dumbest sexist statement on NL in recent time! Having a great relationship doesn't solely depend on one partner! It's the full responsibility of both partners to create a great healthy and happy relationship! A man or woman who really loves you will NEVER cheat on you. When your partner starts cheating on you, it simply means he/she doesn't love you. Some people can't differentiate between "like" and "love". Any relationship where infidelity is tolerated can NEVER be a happy one! It is a toxic relationship! So for an as*shole to come here to encourage women to tolerate cheating men to ensure a "happy" relationship is sickening! |
Buhari used this useless project to loot public money! |
Where are all the money going? Stimulating the economy by "releasing" the money straight into their pockect? |
Nigerian police is the worst in the world! They are lawless, very corrupt and dangerous! |
The girl is sexy, while the id*iot a sexual pervert. |
sirusX:How women dress is not your f*ucking business! You can't blame them for your sexual perversion! |
Religious people are the worst hypocrites!! |
hazyfm1:GEJ and his illiterate wife miss looting public money. |
venom13:Ask Obasanjo. |
She said we should thank God for ending Boko haram...Really? When did your incompetent husband end Boko haram? |
Patience Jonathan is a thief! |
They will sell them and pocket the money! |
JMAN05 10 Reasons for Human to Leave Religion Behind Reason 10: The Messiah Story Has Been Around For Thousands Of Years. The Messiah Story Has Been Around For Thousands Of Years. It should be noted that the idea of a divine savior of the human race is practically as old as the human race itself, and has resurfaced continually, echoing throughout our culture for thousands of years. That it continues to be a theme of popular works today is no surprise, but there exists a bitter debate over whether many or most of the major elements of the story of Jesus Christ were co-opted from other sources - some that originated hundreds or even thousands of years before Jesus.The general assertion by the skeptical is that all of these elements - the virgin birth, significance of the solstices, the miracles, disciples, baptism, crucifixion, resurrection - along with many even more specific elements like Heaven and Hell, the soul, holy communion and others, were all seen before in multiple ancient pagan religions. Many Christians contend that these similarities are a distortion, or the result of ancient records being taken out of context or simply being inaccurate; atheists similarly will point out that practically all ancient records are of questionable accuracy to some degree, including those non-Christian references to the historicity of Jesus.Modern scholars can only agree on two things about Jesus: that he was baptized, and that he was crucified on the order of Pontius Pilate. All of the other details are disputed by some group of scholars or another, and an examination of the ancient pagan religions predating Jesus - those surrounding Horus, Mithra, Dionysus, Krishna and many others - yields an astounding number of similarities that cannot be explained away as coincidence. These stories seem to be a part of ancient Mediterranean culture, which leads us to the fact that . . . Reason 9: “Mythology” Used To Be Religion. When we think of the Greek, Roman, Norse and other mythologies that we studied in school, most of us probably consider them to have the same level of actual historical significance, or value to our modern culture, as The Lord Of The Rings. That is not to say that they have little or no value - these mythologies were an important part of the development of human intellect and understanding of the world, of which we had very little at the time of their inception.From an atheist point of view, it can be argued that we still had very little understanding of the the way our world works two thousand years ago, and that the application of different aspects of pagan myth to the Christian gospels makes sense - many ancient mythologies borrowed from each other, as we know from our study of the very similar Roman and Greek mythologies and all of their various analogues (Zeus and Jupiter, Venus and Aphrodite, etc.) of the same deity archetypes. These ancient mythologies weren’t myths to the people who created them - they were religion, their way of explaining the world and its mechanics. Mount Olympus was simply the highest mountain in Greece, and to the ancient Greeks it was their version of Heaven, and Zeus their version of God.This holds true for all ancient and pagan belief systems, which also illustrates the point that Christianity did not bring religion, the concept of salvation, or even monotheism to the world - these things had been in place for centuries. Christianity, Islam and other such belief systems (and there are many similarities there as well) can be seen simply as the myths that have somehow survived to this day. Reason 8: The Bible Doesn’t Line Up With Modern Values The Bible is, obviously, an extremely old text with dozens of interpretations throughout the centuries. The term Christian itself is a rather a blanket term for a dizzying array of belief systems, very few of whom are in complete agreement as to how the Bible should be interpreted - or even in what context specific passages should be taken.Atheists do have trouble reconciling that the Word Of God, infallible as it should be, would be so open to such wildly varying interpretations - but what they have more trouble with are the passages in the Bible that clearly have absolutely no bearing on any sane, modern system of beliefs and morals. Most are aware of the passages that provide for the keeping of slaves, the wanton murder of homosexuals and adulterers, the selling of children and other such things which have no place in civilized society, let alone in texts that are considered to be holy.Yes, these things were common 2,000 years ago, but that’s the point - that these do not appear to be the suggestions and guidance of an all-knowing and loving God, but rather of men - not prophets, just men, who were very much of their time. An omnipotent God would have demonstrated an understanding of basic human rights long before we humans got around to realizing, for instance, that slavery is wrong. This limited understanding of historical context works backwards as well as you will see in this next item: Reason 7: The Bible Doesn’t Work As A Historical Text. The above-referenced debate as to whether Jesus was actually a historical person (he almost certainly was) notwithstanding, there are myriad problems to be found when attempting to reconcile the Bible’s account of ancient history with the known historical record. Again, these are inaccuracies which would not be expected from an omnipotent being, but would absolutely be expected from a 2,000 year old author with a limited historical and scientific frame of reference. Take, for example, the story of Noah and the Great Flood, a significant event that, even if it were not worldwide but localized to one region, would have made the historical records of many ancient civilizations. Many Christian scholars believe that it was localized, not a global flood, which explains its absence from the ancient record. The Bible itself says in Genesis: “6. The LORD regretted that he had made mankind on the earth, and he felt highly offended. 7. So the LORD said, “I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth-everything from mankind to animals, including creatures that move on the ground and birds of the air, for I regret that I have made them.” … 11. The earth was ruined in the sight of God; the earth was filled with violence. ”This clearly did not happen - but it was also far from the first “Great Flood” story of the ancient world, another mythological element that has echoed across cultures for millennia. And while it’s easy to argue for the validity of parables and metaphors as a means to understanding human nature and morality, the opposite case can also be made; that it has become unnecessary for us as a species. We have developed into civilized people that understand the concept of morality simply being good for our continued survival. Reason 6: Religion Is Behind Many Conflicts, Large And Small. If religiosity is the key to the understanding of human nature and our place in the Universe (or wherever we are), then this is particularly troubling to the skeptic. Yes, “Why does God let bad things happen?” is a well-worn and simplistic argument, but the fact of the existence of numerous bloody religious conflicts throughout history - including those between differing sects of Christianity - combined with the aforementioned Biblical references to the many types of offenders that should be put to death, cannot simply be waved away. Not only is killing for any reason obviously morally wrong, but there’s a direct conflict with the First Commandment, the Christian doctrine of turning the other cheek, and the simple truth that religion and politics - that other great cause of violent conflict - should not be mixed.The very phrase “King James Bible” is suspicious to the skeptic, as it implies government involvement in the interpretation of religious doctrine, and even the founders of the US thought enough of the issue to include the tenet of separation of church and state within the establishing documents of the nation. But the ability of faith to transform a political moderate into a radical cannot be overstated - and the ability of governments to use said faith to their own ends is easy to see, as it continues to this day.Many in the US think of religious radicals as those of other religions - alien religions with weird beliefs that make their followers do crazy things, but the truth is that there are radicals of practically every religious affiliation - and that there is no killer more determined than the one who believes with all their heart that God wants them to kill. Reason 5: The Religious Are Not Favored. This raises another question: the religiously devoted are certain of the truth of their religion, but there are hundreds, thousands of religions all over the world, and they cannot all be right - unless they are really all just metaphors, different interpretations of a truth that may be beyond our intellectual grasp. So the question is: if one religion is correct, why is it not the only religion? Why are its followers not favored by God? Why is there such widespread disagreement?There simply is no answer, because there is no one religion that is favored in any measurable way; not by rate of new converts, happiness or comfort of the converted, protection from disease or physical harm, anything. And the notion of a God that must “remain hidden”, that cannot interfere with the lives or fates of his followers, negates the entire concept of prayer - while also raising questions about why God spoke to so many people in Biblical times.It’s somewhat of a well-known notion that the devoutly religious, when set upon by severe misfortune, will simply think of it as “God’s will”, which we’ll discuss a little more later. But to the skeptic, it follows that an all-knowing God who loves all of his children - and is admittedly “jealous” - would be pleased with those who know the truth, and likely very displeased with the millions of his children who erroneously follow false religions. If this is the case, it is in no way apparent, but it is painfully apparent that… Reason 4: The Religious Are Not More Morally Sound Than Others. In fact, religious beliefs are decidedly not an indicator of strong moral values, and vice versa. Among atheists, it is a common misconception that Christians and other religious types are closed-minded, superstitious and judgmental; among the religious, it is a common misconception that the non-religious are depraved, morally reprehensible perverts. Thoughtful people of both types understand that such generalizations fail to hold up in reality, and that morality and religious inclinations (or lack thereof) can be two very separate things.Indeed, even those who do not believe in a deity should still be able to agree that the core values of most religions - respect for one’s fellow human beings, striving to be a good and worthwhile member of society, an agreement not to steal, cheat or murder - are basic human values that it is the responsibility of every parent on Earth to instill in their children. This does not, however, necessitate the existence of a Creator who enforces these values upon us; nor does the atheist assertion of a lack of said creator imply that we do not have a duty to lead moral lives.Many agnostics and those who don’t accept the literal truth of religious texts while still holding up the value of religion as a moral guide miss this point. Atheists will counter that there can and must be morality without religion, that we as humans no longer need these parables and metaphors that may have helped to guide us in our early development, but have outlived their usefulness to (reasonably) enlightened, thinking beings. Reason 3: Science Is Starting To Answer All Of The Big Questions. The big questions: how did we get here, where did we come from, where are going - have been with us for our entire existence, and we are finally reaching a point in our development where we are beginning to be able to address and even answer some of them. Not in the way our ancestors did, but with new tools and information that have only been recently available to us.The field of physics, and recently quantum mechanics, has revealed things to us about the world we live in that could not have been known even half a century ago - things like the nature of matter and the structure of cells and proteins - which was about the time that the double-helix model of DNA was accurately hypothesized by James D. Watson and Francis Crick, and the “code” with which we are programmed became known to us.And while the religious may argue that these things are aspects of God’s design, the skeptic may counter that though there may very well be a design, it does not automatically follow that it is the design of a Creator deity. For what the majority of the devout fail to realize is that… Reason 2: There Can Be Spirituality Absent Religion. Not only is there a strong sense of the spiritual among most of those who are atheist, but many of them feel that it is the need for spiritual oneness - the longing that is innate to most of us to be a part of a more significant whole - that is most cruelly exploited by religion. For while the skeptic contends that we were not all created by a God, that does not mean that we all didn’t come from the same place.Indeed, in purely practical terms, we did - from the universal singularity before all of time and space, before our Universe began, the same “place” - if it can truly be called that - that everything, living and non-living, past, present and future, originated in. This is what Carl Sagan understood when he penned the above quote; that there is no difference between any of us, and manufacturing differences where there are none serve only to isolate and divide.This need for oneness, for return to a singularity, is a part of human nature that is so very easily manipulated, as those who claim to offer it to us are doubtless aware. But there is no one path to it, no one way; and likewise, no way to absolve ourselves of the one absolute imperative of human existence. This is perhaps the concept that troubles the non-religious the most, because… Reason 1: Religion Helps Us Avoid Responsibility. If every aspect of our existence is a part of God’s plan; if everything that has ever happened or will ever happen is God’s will; if we exist only for God, then the need for us to be responsible to and for ourselves is negated.Even the most heinous crimes against humanity - against ourselves, from the murder of a single child to the Holocaust - can be ascribed to God’s will. But what does that mean for us? In the most practical terms, it means that we are not responsible for our actions. That if a parent abandons a child, a rich man becomes richer off the backs of the poor, a corporation causes irreparable damage to the environment, or a government exterminates thousands of its own innocent citizens, it was all a part of God’s plan. It was inevitable; it could not have been avoided. There is nothing to learn. We are not responsible.This, of course, can lead into a much longer discussion about destiny versus free will, but thinking people - both religious and non-religious - can and must agree that it is the purpose of the human race to never stop learning, and never stop growing. It’s more than a belief system, and it remains relevant regardless of what you believe or don’t believe - indeed, whether God exists or not. It’s why we’re here, and it’s our responsibility. |
Flood doesn't kill someone and also naked the person. This is clearly a murder case. |
I hope he is engaged for real, not for paper. His woman is beautiful. Good luck to them. |
lwise:You meant "EXporting nickel"? |
He was upset because the northern prison warders were pushing him to "move faster" while he was actually moving! Nnamdi Kalu is not a terrorist and hadn't bombed anyone or any place. But see how they treated a known northern terrorist who killed many people with a bomb during Christmas! he was allowed to walk freely to and from the court! They gave him space, no pushing, nothing; https://www.google.nl/search?q=Kabiru+Sokoto.&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiB7PWipY3PAhXkLMAKHVN2A9QQ_AUICCgB&biw=1280&bih=899#imgrc=_ |
Amaechi, if the "Development Agenda" is recession, you're right! |
Get a refund from the "architect", he's unqualified! The design looks off, like what my 6yr old could draw. |
Jailing the woman would have been devastating for her and her 5 children. The DPO may have done something good but we should also remember that DPOs go home everyday with huge amount of bribe money! They extort money from people everyday. |
Is that the reason why he s*ucks big time as a president? |
agwom:Neither APC nor PDP are capable and morally qualified to rule a country! |
Useless northerners! |
They copied U.S. style of Military uniform but didn't copy U.S. training style. Bunch of losers! |
Buhari was smart enough to falsely portray himself as an incorruptible person for years before he became president. And no one has been paying attention to his corrupt activities because it. Buhari is very corrupt! Anyone who thinks otherwise is very naive and dumb. At his age at 73, do you think he would not want to be a billionaire before he dies? He knows that Nigerian presidents don't prosecute their former presidents. So why not loot and have fun like Obasanjo and Jonathan did? Until we start executing corrupt politicians, endemic corruption will continue to prevail with impunity! |
I blame both of you for this mess. Firstly, you didn't handle the situation appropriately at all. It is not a bad thing for your wife to ask you to accompany her to shop! She wanted you around her, which is what any woman who loves her partner does. Even if you don't want to go, you could tell her politely and promise go to with her next time. If your wife wants to use your stuff, you shouldn't say no (unless you're using it). In the case of a router, many people can use one at the same time. She's your wife and will always use your stuff till you leave this earth. What's yours is also hers and the same applies to hers. When she asked for the router, you could have easily told her that you forgot it at the office and that you will bring it home the next day. Ignoring her "to avoid problem" was a st*upid and childish thing to do. Good communication in marriage is very important and it prevents/resolves a lot of problems! You can't resolve MOST problems by simply keeping quiet or ignoring the issue or your partner. You escalated the situation by not responding to her! By the way, why would you go to your office with the router? Your workplace has no internet? You shouldn't have collected the remote from her by force! It probably bruised her hands when you squeezed it from her grip. You supposed to know how to calm your wife down. You're the man in your home and should behaved like one, not like an immature guy who was given a wife to marry and has no clue what to do. Your wife should come first before your st*upid game. She felt the game was more important to you than giving her the attention she needed at that moment. It's a humiliating thing to do to your wife! Secondly, I understand your wife's frustration and anger but she went too far by spitting on you. That's not the best way to react to an annoying husband. And that's the only thing I feel she did wrong. She did the right thing by seizing the remote to get your attention but you blew it. A smart husband would apologize and pet her until she releases the remote. A happy wife, a happy life. When a husband seeks to please his wife, he can single handedly change the atmosphere in his marriage. There are great benefits for both a husband and wife to seek each other's happiness in their relationship. |
