Religion / Re: Dunamis Church 'Fake Testimony': Anyim Vera Deserves An Apology by Originalsly: 10:06am On Apr 15
I don't understand why the Pastor is wrong to say the testimony is a lie. When asked what degree ... she said "Bsc ..... Bsc in law". Why would he think it was a mistake when she repeated Bsc ?" Knowing your graduate degree is like knowing your name ... would stage fright make you mistakenly give another name instead of your own?... twice? Why wouldn't the pastor not think she is a liar and send her back to her seat? After all .... she came to the altar on her own.

If it is true she is a graduate ... then why the big blunder? As a Christian one has to think her motive for going to the altar was not to testify but to advertise .... advertise herself to men .... to attract a husband ... maybe a sugar daddy. After all .... she is a Police .... and single ... and we know the present economic situation. Maybe it was God's way of dealing with her for using His name to promote herself.

Properties / Re: Landlord Throws Graduate-Tenant Properties Outside In Uyo During Heavy Rain-pics by Originalsly: 1:12am On Apr 15
immortalcrown:


If she dies, her siblings will receive scholarship from a government.

But why is her academic qualification mentioned here? In terms of poverty and wealth, there is nothing special about being a graduate. Many graduates are poor and many who are not graduates are rich.

Though every educated person is expected to mentally and physically productive enough to overcome abject poverty, the woman's problem is beyond unemployment. Consider the fact that she is not married and no member of her family could assist her with accommodation or rent.


No.doubt ... education should allow you to avoid abject poverty. But going in on her based on an assumption is both wrong and scandalous. Do you know if she has siblings?... if she is an orphan and is alone in this world? ... do you know if NYSC served as a place of refuge for her? ... did you consider that after not finding a job she found a way to earn a living .... selling ground nuts to maintain herself but this inflation explosion took a toll on her?... and the landlord? ... do you know if she be Osu?... and shunned by our "civilised" society? ... and you figure she should've been married? Has any pf these thoughts crossed your mind? Why try to blame the victim? Bro... people are suffering .... don't be kicking people when they be down.... let's try and be humane ... behave like humans ... empathy should be in our DNA.

DrAkpamudehe:


Only struggling young men go for Asian moving boxes. Seatrade you are a poor man, if he sure for you go buy German car. Check out my Benz SUV electric. Just acquired. You be mugu.


At least the Asian boxes move .... lots of German machines be sitting around workshops like decorations ... many abandoned. Benz SUV electric .... come back in three months and tell us about it. Toyota has one electric vehicle... seen a few around ... similar to RAV4 ... and that's it for them... they have no more in the works for now... just focusing on Hybrids ... churning out Hybrids. Hybrid sales are increasing a lot.... more people are now opting for hybrids instead of electric ... the wahala is too much. But boss ... enjoy your all electric ....

Don't hold your breath.... Seatrade is not going back to German cars. Chew on what he said ..... he never expected a Jap car to excite him .... then he goes on to criticize the Benz ... then he says what Benz they have to produce and only then he may return to German! Then chew on this .... Benz is luxury... Honda Accord is not ... but yet he is impressed. What do you think will happen when he samples Acura?... Honda luxury division?... comparing luxury with luxury? What do you think will happen when he finds out how reliable is the Accord and he no longer has to be burning money on maintenance and repairs? What if he tries Lexus? That guy is done with German.

Again ... the military should not be involved in civilian matters. We know to shout "democracy" but have the military involved in our affairs a d we see nothing wrong. Here's the chief saying he'll investigate and prosecute to the full extent of the law..... how dumb can he be? Do military have civilian lawyers? Military have their own laws and their own courts. A military has its own laws and courts. If found guilty .... as murder is this case ... they can be dismissed from the military.... and then be charged by the Police for murder and tried in Civilian court like any other civilian. The FG ends to separate these agencies.... military stay in their lane.... and Police stay in their lane.

Ask yourself ... why don't they roll it out in their country?.... in a developed country? ... theybare always the ones suffering from these diseases unknown to us ... we are always the ones being used as "Guinea pigs".

Religion / Re: When She Wants To Talk To You About Everything Else But Jesus by Originalsly: 12:49pm On Apr 14
jesusjnr2020:


When She Wants To Talk To You About Everything Else But Jesus

That was it and the same girl that was so passionately singing "be magnified oh Lord" and even corrected me when I got the lyrics wrong suddenly switched to silent mode.

I was wondering what I had done wrong or said that made her suddenly stop talking to me.

She refused to talk to me again in the bus just because I started preaching to her about Jesus.


Do you know what she wanted to talk about?.... yes/no? You didn't give her a chance to say anything but have jumped to conclusion. Maybe she wanted to tell you how Jesus got into her life ... but you're too full of yourself believing she wants a relationship. Do you know if she is married?... or about to be married?... and maybe want to extend an invitation?

If she corrected you with the lyrics .... didn't it show at that point that she is more a Christian than you? ... that if you shut up you may learn more from her?

You started preaching to her. When a pastor is preaching ... what do the people do?... don't they remain quiet? ... isn't that what she did? ... so why you have an issue with her being silent?

The trip ended while you were still preaching... what you expected her to do?... stand around and wait for the sermon to end? Bro... check yourself ... the same Bible warns about people like you .... self judgement and judging others.

Religion / Re: Dangerous Attitudes Amongst Nigerian Churches In The Diaspora by Originalsly: 12:24pm On Apr 14
We took praise to the city of Cannock

This is what is really wrong with Iberian churches in the diaspora. Don't they have Christians there?.... don't they have churches? ... why is it that you have to be a nuisance making noise and disturbing the peace? If you're prosecuted you'll be shouting you're been persecuted because of your faith. Ask yourself ... would Jesus have done this?... did He? Don't you have a church to worship and give praises? ... you are bringing praises ... can one really bring praises to a place? Noisemakers and a nuisance exported.

For behavior in churches .... it has nothing to do with the pastors or the present generation of kids ... but everything to do with the parents and how they trained their kids. A child need to be trained by the parents. The behavior allowed at home is the same behavior the child will take outside ... regardless of location. Too many parents allow the child to make decisions ... what he wants to eat ... what he wants to watch ... what he wants to do ... where he wants to go ..... parents bend over backwards to please their children. When in church ... they are then afraid the child will act up and they will be embarrassed since they cannot control the behavior so they provide comforts... whether it be tablet or whatever. Happens worldwide... blame the parents.

Oh no .... I totally disagree. I would be sooo happy to have them sentenced to like 5 years imprisonment .... in a reserved section of the prison.... made fairly comfortable ... they need to be fed very well ... healthy energetic foods ... spiced with some tramadol . All for one purpose ..... service the rapists. All convicted for rape ... should be sent daily or weekly to be sodomised by this group. These who rape minors should be sent like twice a day ... one rest day allowed. Of course this can't be legal .... but who will complain? When word of this get out .... I'm almost sure we will not be reading much about rapes. We need to use these men effectively.... and round up the rest of the gang as quickly as possible .... lots of rapists need to be served.

Hmmmm .... interesting. These are the details we need to hear. So is it this long one has to be waiting to at the gas station? Time is money. I don't even see why people are praising the report .... CNG will be sold at N200per scm ..... what was the price so we can know if it will now be less expensive and if so by how much. Why compare it with the price of PMS? What should be compared is the cost of CNG to travel like 200 miles and the cost of PMS to travel the same distance .... that's the first thing I will want to know before considering to convert. If it's better... then time to fill up... 4 hours?... even 1 hour ... I'm out ... they not ready for me.

Have you as a Christian ever tried getting visa to go to Israel? .... God's country? ... the "Chosen race" that do not tolerate Cbristians you are fully supporting as a Christian. Can you name just one pastor/prophet/evangelist... one church that has a branch in Israel? ... or broadcast in Israel?... or can you name one church in Israel?

I've watched a lot of documentaries on big cats and other animals. From what I've seen .... the jaguar is the undisputed king. Besides having the strongest bite ... he takes on other apex predators on his own ... one can't find safety by climbing a tree .... he'll come after you.... can't run away from him .... can't jump in a river .... even if you dive...he'll dive after you.

Medications for adults are not formulated the same for infants.... they have contents that are harmful to infants. We're the medications for infants? SMA Gold or Platinum or whatever is nowhere as good as breast milk. The rashes may very well be an allergic reaction to the SMA Gold formula.... which may even be fake. Did the rashes begin after you introduced the SMA? If yes... then that may be cause. Then we can move to bed bugs..... have you checked the bed?... the sheets?... use your phone light and camera to magnify and check. Completely change bedding. Then what detergent do you use to wash the bedding? ... the chemicals may be irritating his skin and causing the rashes. Change detergent ... use less ...and rinse clothes/bedding thoroughly . Blend neem leaves ... add to bath water .... it will get rid of any bed bug or such .... and will repair the skin. Lastly .... seek advice from the elderly .... they most likely have seen such many times many and know exactly what to recommend. Two kobo spent.

Is that what the law says? .... or you are assuming? I know in the US ... when married ... you are considered the father of any child born in wedlock period. They would not ask for nor accept DNA results ... you can't go to court to say the child is not yours ... let alone an outsider coming to claim the child is his. With this in mind .... I can understand his view .... he doesn't want to know ... he takes his wife's children as his own .... if she cheated on him.... then she will pay the price one way or other.... Karma never sleeps. That's a good mindset to have .... not easy. At times when we see children treat their mothers like trash ... with hate ... and even beat them ..... we must wonder why. This I've witnessed.

Hmmm .... they are setting his selling price .... that the price must not be pegged to forex.... it is a local product therefore it must be affordable to locals. They made some reasonable points ... but do they know his expenses? ... do they know the cost of doing business in Nigeria? Did they confront the ones they are importing from on their price?.... how much they are buying for and if transportation costs that much to be delivering at N1200/1250 per litter?

Let's keep it real. Dangote has to sell at or near the imported price .... regardless of his production price. Not because of monopoly or greed but because the dealers are greedy and corrupt. If Dangote sells at N850 ... there will be a shortage ... the price at the pump will be reduced just a little ... and we will be hearing excuses and explanations when the fact of the matter is they will be exporting the fuel to maximize profits. Weren't they doing so before when the fuel was subsidised? Why would they not do so again? I strongly believe that's their aim.
