ifihearam:

Shut up there and stop misleading people,who told said you can't pay the price to recover your favour and blessings,look into your Bible you will see that most answered prayers were as a result of sacrifice,the Bible records that a man's wealth(money)maketh way for him. Ask hannah,ask esther,shimmamite woman to name a few.

So in your own version of the bible, Mary paid to give birth to Jesus...

You are the new JUDAS of this generation.

David ogar: mr bad luck

Hater.

jayiyke007: How did this pix of GEJ in his house get 2 nairaland?

This is a security risk.

Bélla3: Erm... Okay. Are you xtian? Surely you cant be a christian!

Christian for where?

Light has nothing in common with darkness. By their fruits we shall know them!

thisisayus: tell that to your father!

Ah!

You cannot be a Christian with a comment like this.

Ozegbe: I’m sickened by all religions. Religion has divided people. I don’t think there’s any difference between the pope wearing a large hat and parading around with a smoking purse and an African painting his face white and praying to a rock.

You mean you are bitter with religion.

Christianity is not about religion so get your facts right. If you know the true God of heaven, you will feel differently.

You are what you believe. You made your choice to follow religion rather than Christ so expect to be double frustrated.

cyril83: keep spewing rubbish abt christianity...we are all sinners,believe me or not no one on this thread is making heaven including the mod ...Gbam

... Especially the OP

Damon03: Oh how sweet, I tot this was posted by an atheist y ar some pple insulting muslims

My point exactly.

OP cannot be a Christian or he is probably one of those bench warmers.

Ozegbe: my problem has always been the fragmentation in church.....
One bible, different translations, different churches, different doctrines. Well, if God is willing to burn 5 billion souls in hell, including Bill gates, Albert Einstein among others who have contributed so much to the world of humanity, then hell will be better place to be.My conclusion of this God or no God issue is that, May God existed before but has now lost touch with the world.

God is who He is whether you acknowledge Him or not.

The mistake people make is they try and prove His existence using the knowledge of the world. No one and I mean no one can unravel or understand the mystery of God.

Stop wasting your time .

Reyginus: The person is not christain.

Even the OP is not a Christian or an ineffective one.

All the things he wrote are rubbish about how you know you are Christian.

crackhouse: . this couple must doing sex like 3 square per day.

Not surprised at this comment.

Many Africans have a poor sex life. Sex enhances intimacy . An ingredient lacking in many relationships in Nigeria.

All they know is shouting .

sossesam: Firstly, love is not an emotion it is a duty. Love is not about feelings its about responsibility. You can love as many times as possible. Only the rate of attraction differs. And our attractions decides our decisions most times. Love is a big word and is mistaken for attraction. Sorry but I no prepare for lecturing today. Just needed to make dat fact clear.

Nonsense!

I don't want to be loved by someone under a sense of duty.

Love gives you the right to be free. Why love becos you feel you need to?

aaliyaSA: Yes you can love more then once. Each time u love it will be different. The depths of the love u feel wil b different. When u love wholeheartedly there is no control...u can't wave a magic wand and it disappears. U can pretend and put up a front wit others yes, but the feelings can't b coontrolled.....and there is always that "special one" that stands out from the rest....the one u won't forget.

This is exactly what I said

sleekymag:

We are talking about romantic or erotic love here, and not filial nor agape. So what's chemical about the addiction? Any chemical elements or compounds involved?

Anger is an emotion, can it be controlled? Yes, it can. Even if you're not angry, can you act as though you were angry? Yes! In other words, love as an emotion can be controlled.

BTW, its nice to see this making front page...

Love is an emotion of a strong affection and personal attachment. Its not physical .

Please can you control "strong affection"?

If you can control it, you are not yet deeply in love. Or should I say you have not lost yourself to the total abandoness of your feelings to that person.

tony1980: love is a beautiful thing

.....ONLY when reciprocated in its truest form.

DigitalSignal:
Like I said before, love is abstract! It's a state of mind that you attain over a period of time!

Erich Fromm (1956) in his famous treatise (The Art of Loving), noted the sad consequence of this misconception:
""There is hardly any activity, any enterprise, which is started with such tremendous hopes and expectations, and yet, which fails so regularly, as love."

(chances are he'd be even more pessimistic today.)

In my opinion, real, lasting Love is an endearment that results from deeply appreciating another's goodness. That's why most women think there is no love in the dictionary of an African man.

According to my gran, most African men tend to have affairs when they have attained a higher position of comfort in their lifestyle . It seems they are likely to be more faithful when they are penniless and rely on the goodness of their partner to sustain them.

Statistics today supports her notion!

Love comes in different forms.

Romantic love both exhilarates and motivates us. It is also critical to the continuation of our species. Without the attachment of romantic love, we would live in an entirely different society . So in a sense, love really is a chemical addiction.

Love is an emotion . There are times it cannot be controlled. You can manage it but cannot control it.

sleekymag:

Hmm, maybe in truth, there's no such thing as one true love. But i think love is a decision you make and decide to stick to, come what may.

Confused!

You can make a decision to love and stay in a marriage but how can you make a decision to love and stay in love.

googles: You can love as many times as possible I have come to learn. No such thing as "one true love"

Too many times is probably an infatuation . You can have a deep love for someone such that forever you have that bonding with them.

There is always that special love that shines above the rest !

Love is not stagnant. It's constantly changing as people change and at any one point in time the emotions will float between :

Love...........and/or........... Hate

Princess1982: By no means do I support drug trafficking but death seems a bit harsh for a marijuana charge.

It is written in the body of the law of the country. If you do the crime, be prepared for the consequences.

What is harsh about it? This is not Nigeria where the law is never enforced.

Motion Kali: I did not blame the young man for this act. I blame the leaders of our country Nigeria. Assuming our country good, the guy would have not got himself into this mess. The blood of this young man is in their hand.

...and the blood of those who die from drug overdose and usage is in this young man's hands!

hollandis:

kind not can
choose not choice
caught not cut
Your write up does not make sense .Stupid dullard

N.B People that cannot write intelligibly and smartly should be BANNED from posting on the site .Disgracing the name of Nigeria and hardworking Nigerians #FuckkkinGBastardd

Ha ?

Illiteracy Yes. Bastard No.

hollandis: To charge someone beyond every reasonable doubt means he was not caught in possession of the drugs

I know the way they operate there,you can be implicated and be killed

You cant hear the sentences against you because of language barrier

If they try that thing to my relative and I realise he is innocent ,i will launch an atomic bomb and level the place to dust

Empty threats!

I feel sorry for no one.

All these get rich quick schemes always lead to destruction.

They make ordinary hardworking citizens appear hard done by life.

Wish they would institute the death sentence in Nigeria too. It will clean the country of all those career criminals .

aribisala0:
No I'll tell you what is ridiculous the idea of a gay ladyboy like you calling me gutter. You from what hole did you crawl out ? Frothing at the mouth with glazed eyes. Did you get the wrong measure of your fix? Look again I will squash you underfoot and not spare your destitute family. Ask those who loosened your leash , a very bad idea to cross the road in traffic when high on crack coz you will get a nasty whack. Be warned.
Olu gbeja Sango lo paa Iya re.Inu gutter ni oku iya re ma gbehin si

Thank u for proving me right !

Remember as you wish unto others, so it shall BE unto YOU and YOUR loved ones. AMEN.

No further comment

aribisala0:
To your thinking that is a witticism?
Don't you have any real friends to tell you the truth about yourself
You are brainless and conceited.You lack insight and so that removes any hope of palliation. You come here with your random ejaculations which are consistent in their predictable idiocy and you smugly feel you are saying anything of value. You are an obnoxious irritating little twit and would cause general relief and jubilation if you disapppeared never to be seen again

Look at the kettle calling the pot black!

All these gutter people sha!

NL needs to do away with all these ignorant people who are obstacles to freedom of expression . All these people who want to force their opinions down others throat but have no respect for other people's opinions.

It's ridiculous !

SELFWORTH:

gutter mouth don arrive!

Don't bother .

Everyone knows poster@ileke-idi is an illiterate. Read all her posts and you will see what I mean .

babyosisi: This is more like it!!
Looking sharp!
Not looking like heis going to a bar to fraternize with college buddies

.... But looking old from all the stress from leading that big ugly beast called Lagos.

naijababe: I wonder why every thing that's supposed to be good turn to mush on NL, thanks for he comic relief at least

Its sad.

Nigerians can't even tolerate Nigerians!

Nah wah o

crackhaus: This message goes out to HOLLANDIS & Co.(You know yourself), why are you on this forum if you find your motherland & its people sickening? You have left the only country on earth that will accept you for you to be a 2nd class citizen in another country(mind you, there's no way on earth you'll ever be considered a 1st class citizen in your country of residence as long as your skin tone remains negro). Why do you feel the need to elevate yourself by calling africans/nigerians names? Is it that you suffer from so much low self-esteem? Yes, we got issues as a country but people like you should stay out of it if you're so angered and bitter about it. Please tell me the picture on your profile is not you cos if it is, I am sorely disappointed in you for your vile tongue and bad attitude. If the picture isn't really you, then I guess I'm right that you do suffer from low self-esteem...

Your name should be crackhead!

Intolerance is a prevalent disease on NL .

This is an international forum. Let people express themselves freely within reason.

Differences in opinion is what makes NL interesting. Lets enjoy it and not take comments personally.


(exceptions: this does not include the use of bad and gutter language)

manny4life: All of you guys talking,

When you went for your first, second or third job interviews, how many of you wore African Attire? This is for those in Nigeria?
For those in Small business, when you went to an investors meeting seeking fund money, how many of you wore our beloved attire?
Why yall graduated from college, how many of yall work our African print?

I wonder o .

Hypocrites !

Godogwu:

You guys must compare and criticize anything or everything Nigerians do. It not our fault that we are very fashion driven and because some people may not be worth a million naira doesn't mean they should dress like touts..... Please!!!! here's a bench \______ ( p.s Dangote is about $5 billion wealthier than Eric)

Stolen money or money acquired through oppression and defrauding your countrymen does NOT count.
