eleojo23: I think the kids of today are more exposed than their parents were during their time. I recently met my 10 year old cousin for the first time and I was suprised at what she knows and says. But nevertheless, even though they may act all grown up, they still possess the vulnerabilities of children.

true.... emotional maturity is still behind

I wont say deceit only but pure domination as overlords

Those with native names were deemed pagans

Those who converted to white man religion were given white names and benefits accrued from the colonial masters

purplesummer: I would tell him it's a result of an age-long deceit perpetrated by his great grand fathers against Africans

ok

crackhaus: Yea, that and docile.

BananaBender: pinkabeau, I haven't said anything and you're already going sissy on me. Calm your jittery nerves, I don't know you dude. And what you have here is some biased bullsh1t you have carried over from maybe Shollypopz whooping your a*ss..


Let's bring it back to Nigerian Christianity, thank you or vamoose.

Says the person who used ludacris first...


if you want us to discuss, lay your points.. if not vamoose also

BananaBender: I'm not trying to express bukatyne's point but I see where someone can be coming from when they say, 'Nigerian Christianity'.
Nigerian Christianity is influenced by paganism. The same mentality they were using to serve Amadioha, Sango, and all is the same mentality they bring to Christianity.
Nigerian Christianity promotes fear of God more than they do love of God. Nobody hammers on conviction, it's all about obeying the bible to the latter and removing any form of logic. (In most cases)
I think what you're insinuating in the highlighted is just ludacris.
There is Nigerian praise and worship, is it any less effective from praise and worship from other nationalities?? It just simply means the way Nigerians choose to worship God. It doesn't necessarily mean they are doing anything wrong. Different cultures, different languages, different society will definitely affect your religion. Even the bible is influenced by the Jewish culture.

So everyone that goes to church is a Christ-follower?
Already cussing?.. Dont bother yourself if u cant express yourself without being frustrated

BananaBender: Lumping?? I don't even have time to address that.
@highlighted: Catholics, Baptist, Anglican, ....... they all have different doctrines and they all claim to be Christians.
WTF are you even saying??
I get irritated when I have to explain every single line.............. what is Christianity without being Christ-like?? I thought the only Christianity is the one "espoused by Christ"?

On top your matter? ..ok oooo

reminds me of a song

Theres something mini mini wana.. shake your low waist

Mariojane: My 2 former boyfriends named their daughters after me nd their wives knw me

You are lumping different things together in one sentence

Christianity as a religious framework is influenced by paganism.. Google and find out the origins of the christian festivals

Christianity as espoused by following Christ is not.


On style of praising God, that is not christianity. one may use drums, another flute.. praise is what it is... It is not christianity and does not define a nations type of christianity

Different cultures will influence a religion.. but the doctrines should be sure

Your keenness to just argue just for arguing sake is also ludacris

crackhaus: The older (grand parents/great grand parents) generation had it easy, the women then were more agreeable?...'docile' kind of, for lack of a better word.

They were not necessarily docile but they recognised the necessity of large households for farming etc

This is tragic and shows backwardness

Neelzar: Liberian officials fear Ebola could soon spread through the capital's largest slum after residents raided a quarantine center for suspected patients and took items including blood-stained sheets and mattresses.

True that

beeevan: Humans gives life its dimensions.

carefreewannabe: Why weird?

its just a saying...

cococandy: no reason.
such a dude must not be loving his life to try and sit me down to discuss a second wife.

LOL... if you dont mind, may i ask what could happen..
Bankruptcy due to Divorce i get but this ur post is chilly...

crackhaus: In this modern and contemporary world, would I even want to marry two women and put them under the same roof with me? Absolutely not!
I very much like my life and sanity.

LOL... I feel u..

One wife .. one trouble
Two wives...

beeevan: Almost shocking, is inconceivable .

Yeah... but that's life..it has many dimensions

Im sure there are..

Wide Weird World

carefreewannabe: Like there are also some men who don't mind being or accepting a second husband.

carefreewannabe: Frankly speaking, no! I would leave the marriage. I don't believe in staying together no matter what. If I was sick and tired and had the means to leave, I would.

This was what I thought u meant too
However you may be surprised there may be some career women who are financially empowered and not under compulsion who will not mind to accommodate a second wife
Who knows..humans are weird

carefreewannabe: Yes, for instance.

OK... assuming you were not jobless but as you said was tired of him..wil you accept

carefreewannabe: I would accept a second wife if I was sick and tired of him but had no means to leave him

What does "no means" mean?
Like jobless?

carefreewannabe: Thank you for your advice.

You don't have to be a genius on NL to feel like one because one is surrounded by endless ignorance, to put it nicely. It is quite irritating.

I have always believed in healthy, polite debates but I have come to realise that healthy, polite debates are only possible with worthy partners.

Good for u..

So calling someone stuped is not an insult especially when unprovoked?

So many geniuses around here.

You should answer learn to distinguish between having an air of confidence and an over exaggerated sense of self importance

carefreewannabe: YOU should learn to distinguish between insults and facts.

I've read that article before...

So?

Is it today that people commit atrocities in the name of religion

It's not news..

None of what is written there is unique to any nation

What I feel Christians should focus on is exhortation to drop the sins that easily beset.
Except you also believe no christian in Nigeria serves God so we all are in the same boat

Interesting some ladies here named their kid after ex..

bukatyne: @Bolded, Nigerian Christians of the Nigerian god are not missing anything; they do not get it all. Have you read the Nigerian god article featured in Punch Column? Still searching for it

See the Authors' comment when some people will not let his wife be...

Interesting...

So Nigerian Christians don't serve God but god?

I will like to read more of this punch article

The standard is the Bible guided by the Holy Spirit

Farouksenior: ...

U watch naruto?? Cos jst saw u askin a guy

Yep..

beeevan: Thanks

Cool

bukatyne: I said Nigerian Christian not unchristian (two different things) besides, na that one be your concern or the OP?

Paraphrased: The wife is not submissive, a Nigerian wife cannot try that, etc.

Your thoughts on the OP

I don't believe Christianity has any variants
For anyone to say Nigerian bible or Christian etc means or connotes mixed religion. If Nigerian Christians are missing something I think a watchman should guide n show d way not seem to mock.

The op is clear...don't count how many times your brother sins against you..forgive.. Forgive..commit to the Spirit who truly convicts.

5minsmadness: Seen it. Tried following it and got lost.
Do you happen to know where I can download English episodes from?

None off my head
Come to the thread.people will give u d links

What type of comments did u see from Nigerians that were unchristian

coded01: Congrats my bro...

How far.....liga starts next week
First time in a long time the blaugrana will not feature in a espana super cup...


This year will be different

But real is strong.. Choi and they have a very good humble coach

5minsmadness: Went through some emotional stuff this week, still in the recovery phase
Will see if I can update today.

As for naruto, I stopped where sakura confronted naruto about going after sauske following the defeat of pain. Am far behind shey? Haven't been able to get any updates since then. I love that manga. Apart from the action it has some really deep life lessons.

Ehya..sorry bro..keep your head up..when you r ready to post..we your loyal fans are behind

On naruto...Damn.....you a long way behind

Its so far gone...the leader of akatsuki declared war

There's a fan thread if you r interested

Farouksenior: Hahahahahha.... No wayo.

LOL

bukatyne: Ok o,

I hear you

I agree that divorce is only for extreme cases (I don't even dig divorce. If you can't cope after all odds, just pack your bags and leave, If it is too hot, just run)

I hear you too oooo

bukatyne: Hmmm

And if people advice them to do so they suddenly become feminists, home breakers or bitter divorcees that want others to join them?

Hmmm again

You miss it...

Unrestrained calls for divorce by its champions is the issue
There is a process...counselling... Seperation....then divorce


If this lady feels infidelity is a no no...then she should make her feelings known with desire to protect herself

Some men will stop...others will not

The unrepentant cheats are a different kettle of tea

Bro... how far with zombie tales na

Are u also a naruto fan

5minsmadness: Because they are not ready to do so.


Ladies decide to get married to men yet refuse to listen to what men want. Its not only ladies that can walk away you know.

Farouksenior: ..lolxx. Dts funi. Pls if i may,how cum d infidelity rate for d western hemisphere neva drop irrespective of all d divorce nd spousal settlements etc

You are not far from the truth
I just stated the facts...

However this measures act as deterrents as you know if you r caught, you r on a long thing.. you could lose the home or kids etc





But most of our ladies believe that the white men dont cheat and they are angelic people so dont burst their fantasies
