Your freind need to care for her, You can't just run away like that. You hav to care and check for her for a while.
When you factor-in the risk of having a few mad offsprings, in addition to that of bodily harm, you will reconsider.What they need is medical help and emotional support. Not romance.

Madness in a spouse no matter how subtle is an extremely serious matter. It can cost you your life.You can be stabbed while you sleep.It is sufficient ground for separation and divorce.Nothing romantic about it. If your spouse shows consistent signs of a serious mental illness esp with aggression, run.

I read in the papers not long ago how a serially abusive, wife battering pastor of a popular pentecostal church in sapele strangled his wife to death and tried to make it look like an armed robbery.Although the story had a twist (a female lover involved), there were questions about the young pastor's mental state before this sad event.Advice? Speak out, then  run.

Travel › Re: How Much Does It Cost 2 Get An International Passport Dat Is Original by Pennywise(m): 2:23pm On Nov 25, 2008
If you are thinking of sending your pics so that it can be scanned on to an 'original passport', that is obtaining pp by proxy, then think twice.

I read in a Nigerian paper earlier in the year, that the Government has advised all countries that passports issued by proxy should be considered fake. Meaning you have to go to a designated pp issuing facility whether an immigration office or a Nigerian embassy, sit down in front of 'their machine' and have your image captured.Scanned pics on original int pp can be detected esp at heathrow or Gatwick with their eyes closed.

Even if the stay or visa is authentic you will be handcuffed and taken straight to prison (through the courts of course, UK being a law-abiding country). In the past you get instant repatriation so you can re-arrange urself and try again. Now, its 1yr imprisonment.Think again.

Horus:
Why are most people Off Topic here?.This thread started with a question.The question is simple:Did God create any religion?.
I am sorry, but this is a question without purpose and not worthy of consideration. If God created religion, fine.The reality is that people believe in God and they worship God. If God did not create religion, this does not in any way lessen or trivialize their faith and the reality is that people still believe in God and they worship God.So, what is the essence of the question.

If anything it is a kind of poll between believers and non-believers.If you are a believer then your religion was started by God or divinely (God) inspired. If you are a non believer, then the answer is clearly certain.The thread title then ought to read something like Poll on believers and non believers on nairaland

Men created all the gods in their own image and likeness. . . . . .
Here is an example of a non believer

@Pennywise,

The definition is on the net, google and be wise tongue

Anyway,

i didnt address you as an Atheist, i addressed Atheism

Religion, A Way of Life, sure.

There is nobody on this planet who doesnt have a "way of life"

Religion, Beyond Way of life, sure.

The people on this planet believe one or more of this,

1, Life after death in heaven or hell

2, Reincarnation

3, Ass is Grassism, No life, body decays and returns to the earth, the brain/mind is dead forever.

Is this still simplistic, or dosnt this incorporate the "way of life"
Definition has to be from the net of course.Where else. Considering all the time you spend on NL, you never see time read newspaper let alone some obscure esoteric book on religion.

Lest I forget to remind you that with your double barrel definition, most if not all confraternities qualify for religion.You may need to contact your source for a proper definition before some pple pronounce a fat-wa on your luvly ass.

@Kola

How can you put words into my mouth post,  undecided

What is Religion?

A religion is a set of tenets and practices, often centered upon specific supernatural and moral claims about reality, the cosmos, and human nature, and often codified as prayer, ritual, or religious law. Religion also encompasses ancestral or cultural traditions, writings, history, and mythology, as well as personal faith and religious experience. The term "religion" refers to both the personal practices related to communal faith and to group rituals and communication stemming from shared conviction.

Sociologists and anthropologists tend to see religion as an abstract set of ideas, values, or experiences developed as part of a cultural matrix. For example, in Lindbeck's Nature of Doctrine, religion does not refer to belief in "God" or a transcendent Absolute. Instead, Lindbeck defines religion as, "a kind of cultural and/or linguistic framework or medium that shapes the entirety of life and thought… it is similar to an idiom that makes possible the description of realities, the formulation of beliefs, and the experiencing of inner attitudes, feelings, and sentiments.”[7] According to this definition, religion refers to one's primary worldview and how this dictates one's thoughts and actions.
@Pennywise, if you say something doesnt exist, it must, you just choose to ignore it, hence atheism.

The Religion i follow, doesnt bring harm to any human in any way, hence the reson i choose to follow it,

it enhances human life and yes, a hope for the future.
Very interesting indeed. My response should not be mistaken as an atheistic view point. I am hardly competent to speak for a true atheist on whether his belief constitute some kind of religion.

Your definition of religion is elaborate and also quite sophisticated.Maybe too sophisticated. And like all sophisticated definitions, of issues especially of faith that cannot be verified and proven, they soon lose meaning.That is why one can conveniently say as you stated above that religion can be defined as a way of life.

Religion goes way beyond, "way of life" which is ephemeral and subject to change with the time.A religion endures and even addresses issues of life after death. Therefore any definition that addresses religion without incorporating its belief or position on life after death is inadequate and in the end overly simplistic. It may get you a PHD but you will not get all your proffessional colleagues to agree with you because it is deficient and inadequate. I rest.

My people, it is not yet time for argument.
The question above is very simple:did God create or institute any religion?
If yes which one and prove yourself beyond reasonable doubt.
THANK YOU
Sorry, I dont have an opinion. Just correcting a factual error.
Christianity Etc › Re: Stop & Think: Did God Create Any Religion? by Pennywise(m): 1:14pm On Nov 23, 2008
Atheism can't be a religion because it lacks one cardinal feature of religions- which is some kind of reward for the faithful in the life hereafter.
Autos › Re: Why Not Honda Civic? by Pennywise(m): 1:08pm On Nov 23, 2008
I think Nigerians pay more attention to size and prestige rather than functionality when choosing a car.Which is why most would rather pick an accord for instance rather than civic that I consider a smaller version and maybe less prestigious.

Politics › Re: How Do You Feel As A Nigerian After Reading This! by Pennywise(m): 1:51pm On Nov 22, 2008
It makes perfect sense that any responsible Govt would want to protect her citizens.While some peeps may see a white man walking on the streets of P/H, others see 6 million naira (minimum) walking.That my friend is very tempting in an impoverished country like ours. If any nigerian should feel bad seeing a warning like that his anger should be directed against our Govt for not taking similar steps to protect her citizens

Wakagirl, you still need to see your GP to know if you qualify to take clomid or not.Ovulatory failure might not even be the cause of your problem in which case inducing ovulation will be a waste of time and may be dangerous.

My only concern with your wife going is be sure she is not bi-sexual and not trying to warm you up to the idea of a party.
Sisterwoman, no nigerian dude I know will complain about a 3some provided the other party is female.
