No matter how rich the person is, $2B is not something one will waste to destroy a sport rival. Nobody got rich wasting money like that. If he had bought it, he would have treated it as investment

naifizzy:
Yes they were negroid.

PierreAbutu:

naifizzy:
The ancient Egyptians were Africans. The modern Egyptians are decendants of settlers and invaders who ruled ancient Egypt for 2700 years.

Neddyogu:
Just like God did not save over 6million Jews from Hitler and his goons, like God did not save Christians from the romans or hell the Fulanis. This has nothing to do with God or gods. See beyond the prism of religion

Exwizard:
Lampard scored over 300 goals as a midfielder

wildimagination:
Did they reduce the form from 20million to the 5k...at least that's what he thinks we are worth monthly

hopefulLandlord:
Let's ask Christian sects how to define Actual Christianity:

Methodist: It is accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior and publicly sharing that acceptance by getting baptized through sprinkling of water.

Baptist: No, no, no -- you must be DUNKED in water, heathen.

Pentecostal: Yer both wrong -- ye must be baptized by the Holy Spirit and ye must speak in tongues to prove you are saved.

Lutherans: You don't need to do any of that. Our founder said just believe and have faith (oh yeah and he REALLY hated Jews).

Presbyterian: How droll -- lol. No no..you see it does not matter what you do or do not, God has already decided who the true Christians will be and they are obviously all Presbyterians.

Episcopalians: Well, we each get to decide what constitutes Christianity. What is in your heart? What do you think it is for you? What say you, Bishop Spong?

Church of Christ: None of you are going to heaven because you use musical instruments in your services and God hates that.

Jehovah's Witness: Something Something Kingdom Hall; something something no birthdays, several End Times falsely predicted, no blood transfusions,,,,

Seventh Day Adventist: Pah! None of you even have the right day.

United Church of Christ: It's all good; let's listen to an acoustic guitar solo and accept gay people.

Non-denominational: Gay people? ewww. No no, ye must build megachurches with gyms and cafes to be righteous to god.

Catholic: Ummm....oldest sect here, guys. Forget that "accepting Jesus" stuff. You must mediate with God via a priest and eat crackers to get saved (just do not leave your kids alone with said priests, OK?). Oh yeah..and Virgin Mary is way cool.

Church of England: Yeah, what the Catholic said...but divorce is 100% OK.


Unitarian Universalists: Why are you guys even trying to define Christianity? All beliefs are the same (whoops.we aint even Christians).





"CHRISTIANITY: 2,000 YEARS OF EVERYONE MAKING IT UP AS THEY GO!"

This is what we all work hard for. But the hardworking Nigerians do not get the same love and appreciation from a country they call their fatherland. Put yourself in the situation of the Nigerians who won the under 17 world cup, our women who are consecutive winners in the whole of Africa

Blessing Okagbare has been running for Nigeria for years and even broke Nigerian and African record for the fastest time. Did glo or MTN maker her an ambassador? They prefer to use Rita dominic or RMD. RMD does not reflect the age of the average consumer and he is not actively relevant. He has had his days but becos of political connection, they just give him the contract.

If you see the conditions of our Paralympians you will shed tears for them. One was given 2 million naira. divide 2 million by 12 months in a year that is 160k per month. na person go take pay rent, pay coach, feed, buy sport wear and miscellaneous then wait for the next four years for another gold and another 2 million naira. and if not gold no show oh.

Kanu Nwankwo played everything he did for Nigeria and brought glory to this country. na their team be say Nigerians go go abroad them go hear our name. before this 419 scam the only thing people knew about Nigeria na football. That was how Nigerians were identified.
kanu nwankwo saved the lives of many poor children through his kanu heart foundation. I know of a woman in my area whose son could have died if not Kanu heart foundation that arrange funds and made travel arrangement for that boy to have open heart surgery in India.
Today, the small hotel that kanu built as pension for all his hard work has confiscated by the government that does not care about children with heart diseases.

Tell me. my brother who go see all this thing look face throway. until you have a heart problem or have a relative who needs Kanu foundation, then you will know how our government has destroyed us. these people are pure evil. If Atiku can manage his school and businesses without issues, OBJ can manage Ota farm without Issues, MTN and Glo can be managed without issues, what happened to Nitel, NEPA and Warri refinery under their watch.

Northerners will prefer to sell our crude to US and buy the refined oil from US at an added cost and then spend cash to ship it down to us again just becos they do not want Good for the Niger deltans. mere evil.

They have refused to dredge river Niger just becos they do not want the Igbo man to prosper.

Anambra should have had an international airport and shipping port. seeing that most goods coming from china and Japan end up in Aba and Onitsha. Just becos the northern is not close to the sea, they prefer that we all starve and suffer.

The cocoa business in the west, they have killed it so that we will all starve.

Can you believe that Spain exports haute couture but they import their rubber from Nigeria? we buy Italian and Spanish shoes at thousands of dollars but they get their leather from Nigeria.

Aroms Aigbehi just said that he is heading to Liberia to invest his money and we act like we do not care. We do not care because we neglect how much we spend on bags of rice and how much we

During the xmas and Christian festivals, have you ever wondered why there is always rise in commodities? why is there always lack of petrol? Let us blame it on the traders, but how about the hoarding of petrol? Does Nigeria experience a higher number of tourist during this time? no, we do not!

Why then are Christians tormented with scarcity? During the Islamic holidays, everything goes down in price. they have never run out of cattle.

What really does it mean to be Nigerian?

Adetewa:
pls, stop what you know nothing about,
Igbo didn't resist colonial master, we know those who resist in Africa, Igbo is not among, it's a cooked lie history!
The reality is that igbo never have kingdom nor Empire like other ethnic groups, they were living in loose scattered individual in nuclear family in the jungle.
This make it difficult for British to rule every loosely home, they imposed a leader on igbo and and use direct rule to get them along!
even with this it's not easy to mobilized igbo, to your notice they were servants of European slave merchants, around bight of Congo then.

MissJoy29:
Really? How nice! They were awed as well I guess.

MissJoy29:
1) Royalblak007. I love his/her threads. It takes number one on my list. There was a thread about one very expensive cake. The way the thread gave detailed details about the cake eh. Another one was about things that look alike that are easily confused. The thread gave the differences between them and some are so small you'd almost never spot it.

2) Explorers. He makes my love for Aeroplanes and massive structures come alive. I remember the thread about Symphony of the seas that still give me goose bumps till this day. I showed my students and they were so awed. They were busy asking me unimaginable questions. Lol.

3)Toks2008. I suspect he's a relationship expert. He's almost always on point. He sounds like a Christian too.

4) Autojosh. Just got to know him recently. So don't know much about him.

Afhounja:
Marriage is slavery for men. A man gets married under the delusion that he is going to become the "king of 'his' own house". But he ends up becoming nothing else but a work horse---for the comfort of 'his wife'.
This is a key reason why women always want, and are looking forward to, get married: so they can have someone to shoulder all the burdens of providing for them while they do little to nothing, and also have someone to blame when there is a lack of provisions. A man will foolishly get married because he has been told all his life that being a husband is his role and his life is SUPPOSED to be that way.

Once a marriage takes off, the wife assumes the position similar to that of a slave owner---managing the affairs of her slave (husband). Using certain psychological and physical tools, she will exploit the husband and make sure he is as productive as possible so that there are enough resources (coming from the husband's labour) for her to satisfy herself with. She also uses these tools to keep him from running away (i.e. divorce or leaving the marriage eventually).

The major tools she uses are:

-the threat of starvation (the wife takes over the kitchen and can decide anytime to not cook for the husband if he doesn't do what she wants).

-loss of peace of mind (the wife will nag endlessly, b!tch, moan, raise her voice & refuse to shut up, cause deliberate confusion & disorientation, and also throw tantrums whenever something doesn't go her way).

-loss of sexual 'privileges' (the uninhibited & heightened sex drive of a man is taken advantage of. The wife will either use sex as an incentive to make the husband do what she wants or she will go on 'sex strikes' whenever the husband doesn't behave according to her wishes and desires.)---making it look like she is doing her husband a great deal of favour by just laying on her back and spreading her legs.

-the baby/children (the wife knows to a great extent that a man in his right mind will not abandon a child he believes to be his own. She will use the child as a way of keeping the man from running away and making him work even harder. She will also threaten him with the poor well-being & her refusal to take care of the child if he goes against her wishes).

-shaming tactics (in our society, a man is shamed severely for his "failure" to keep 'his' woman. A lot of men fear being subjected to this shaming. So they rather just stay in the marriage, suffer in silence, and do whatever the 'wife' wants.) (men also get shamed with things like: they should "man up" or that they are not "man enough" or that they are "not being a man" if they don't do anything their wives or women want them to).

Other tools include: praise, blame, flattery, withdrawal of approval, manipulation of the man's insecurities and fears, the shattering of his ego, e.t.c.


*I don't need to define slavery because anyone who knows what slavery means and reads what I wrote above will see no difference between it and marriage.
The only difference is the enabling environment, methods (of reward/punishment), and institution (or 'bracket') under which a successful slave-master relationship takes place.

P.S. I didn't write all these solely because I want to reply you. Your profile says you are a female so deep down, you already know that all these are facts. I did it in case there are men 'out there' who NEED some clarity on marriage, might end up reading this post and save themselves from the scam called "marriage".
