Islam for Muslims / Arab Muslims Are Intellectually Advanced, But Some Black Muslims Are Backward by Orikinla1: 1:04pm On Feb 13, 2017 |
Why are majority of Arab Muslims intellectually advanced, but majority of Black African Muslims ( موالي) are intellectually re-tarded. See the difference between the Gulf nations and African nations. When I see how the majority of Muslims in northern Nigeria are so intellectually re-tarded, while their elites are intellectually advanced, I weep. **** That is why they are ruled by herd mentality and often misled by their elites of the political ruling class from generation to generation. Their elites send their children to the best Western oriented schools while the children of the "Talakawas" go to the neglected public schools or "Almajiris" centres at their mosques and living like dogs.

Religion / Re: Medical Doctors, Atheism and Daily Evidence of Failed Prayers. by Orikinla1: 10:57am On Feb 13, 2017 |
The ignorant are ignorant of their ignorance. on to Happen! Science Proves the Healing Power of Prayer By Tuesday, 31 Mar 2015 5:19 PM For the devout, there never has been any question that prayer has the power to heal. Now, more and more medical research from leading hospitals and universities across the U.S. has shown conclusively a belief in God really IS good for you, making you healthier and happier, and helping you live longer. “Studies have shown prayer can prevent people from getting sick — and when they do get sick, prayer can help them get better faster,” Duke University’s Harold G. Koenig, M.D., tells Newsmax Health. An exhaustive analysis of more than 1,500 reputable medical studies “indicates people who are more religious and pray more have better mental and physical health,” Dr. Koenig says.  “And out of 125 studies that looked at the link between health and regular worship, 85 showed regular churchgoers live longer. “There’s a lot of evidence out there.” Dr. Koenig — director of Duke’s Center for Spirituality, Theology and Health and the author of several authoritative books on faith and healing — says a striking study published in the Southern Medical Journal demonstrated that prayer has a remarkable effect on patients with hearing and visual deficiencies. After prayer sessions, “They showed significant improvements based on audio and visual tests,” Dr. Koenig said. He added: “The benefits of devout religious practice, particularly involvement in a faith community and religious commitment, are that people cope better. In general, they cope with stress better, they experience greater well-being because they have more hope, they're more optimistic, they experience less depression, less anxiety, and they commit suicide less often. “They have stronger immune systems, lower blood pressure, and probably better cardiovascular functioning.” SPECIAL: THE SECOND COMING: WHAT DOES THE BIBLE PREDICT? Learn More The proof of the power of prayer is overwhelming, says researcher and writer Tom Knox, a one-time atheist who became a regular worshipper after doing in-depth study of the medical benefits of faith. “What I discovered astonished me,” admits Knox. “Over the past 30 years a growing and largely unnoticed body of scientific work shows religious belief is medically, socially, and psychologically beneficial.”  Study after study backs up the benefits of having faith, especially in prolonging life. In 2006, population researchers at the University of Texas discovered that the more often you go to church, the longer you live. “Religious attendance is associated with adult mortality in a graded fashion,” says Knox. “There is a seven-year difference in life expectancy between those who never attend church and those who attend weekly.” The American Journal of Public Health studied nearly 2,000 older Californians for five years and found that those who attended religious services were 36 percent less likely to die during that period than those who didn’t. A study of nearly 4,000 older adults for the U.S. Journal of Gerontology revealed that atheists had a significantly increased chance of dying over a six-year period than the faithful. Crucially, religious people lived longer than atheists even if they didn’t go regularly to a place of worship.  The American Society of Hypertension established in 2006 that church-goers have lower blood pressure than non-believers. Scientists have also revealed believers recover from breast cancer quicker than non-believers, have better outcomes from coronary disease and rheumatoid arthritis, and are less likely to have children with meningitis. Research at San Francisco General Hospital looked at the effect of prayer on 393 cardiac patients. Half were prayed for by strangers who had only the patients’ names. Those patients had fewer complications, fewer cases of pneumonia, and needed less drug treatment. They also got better quicker and left the hospital earlier. Concluded Knox: “Atheists can sneer at faith all they like, but they can’t assume science is on their side.” © 2017 NewsmaxHealth.

dam4wummy:. From Mallam Garba Shehu: Nothing wrong with your email. I also replied to thank you for publishing my article. The truth I will tell you is that we are working in a different environment, The President has stopped the use of money from the NSA to finance media operations. Which in a way is very good for us because nobody wants to get into that kind of trouble as you can see happening with operators under the past the administration. We are looking for clean, safe money to finance our operations. While we are doing that, we ask our friends to be patient with us. Sent from my iPad |

Beyoncé, meanwhile, wowed the audience with a spiritual performance and also took home the prize for urban contemporary album. Chance the Rapper was also among the top winners of the night, taking the prize for new artist as well as rap album. http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/la-et-grammys-live-updates-wins-grammy-for-album-of-the-1486932366-htmlstory.html 1 Like

Help him if you can. But I must warn you that Nigerians are among the most ungrateful people on earth. So, don't expect him to reward you with gratitude. Poor people don't show you their true characters until they have some money. I have seen many examples, from Mushin to Banana Island and from Lagos to London.

These are top class "runs" girls or webcam models who make US$10, 000 weekly. I know Nigerian girls who are paid N10K just for big men to hug them. N40K to lick the ice cream poured on her boobs. N100K to suck her boobs only. N200K to sleep with her. Others make more just as strip teasers on webcams from their bedroom to big men who pay from US$100 to just watch them. http://totnaija..com.ng/2017/02/webcam-models-wanted-for-us10-000-per.html?m=1
