cap28: Bill Cosby is a sell out house negro who only attacks black people but never criticises white americans who enslaved his own ancestors and who are responsible for creating an unequal society.

House negroes are very good at attacking the victims of oppression but always remain silent about the root causes of oppression. Why doesn't Cosby address the root causes of black unemployment, why doesn't he talk about the racism of whites towards blacks, the prison industrial complex that prefers to put black men in prison rather than educate them and offer them jobs, he will never do that you know why? because the day he does that that will be the day that the whites will end his career and reduce him to the same level of poverty that the majority of black americans are living under.
Ditto oprah

My best friend,Clara electrocuted 22nd June 2004 while ironing. My mum's elder sister stomach ulcer complications just a day after she was diagnosed still in the hospital.

My father-in-law 21st July 2013 still undergoing treatment for prostate cancer,spoke with him dat morning before leaving for church,only for my husband to call that he gave up immediately after talking to me.

I'm at this point where so many deaths have numbed me. Lest I forget,my mum's elder brother his corpse still awaiting burial.

Wow.. By God's grace he is in abetter place and he knows no more pain nor sorrow

Be comforted



menaxe: I lost my immidiate younger brother 4days ago (2nd october 2013). Its a day I will never forget in ma life. Am not crying cos of his death, but cos he died in chronic pains,agony n rancour which lasted for 11months. We woke up one morning around august last year, and saw fresh blood sprinkled all over my compound, he was the first to see it. He called us n showed us the blood, ma mum wept n lamented.
Problem started in november last year,my younger brother who saw that blood, started having some kind of raumatic pains on the right leg, we tot it was raumatism n was givin him medication, bu the situation got worse with the dawn of every morning, we took him to healing ministries,hospitals, native doctors, spritual home,churches, orthopedic home etc bu non could save him. By march 2013, the ailment also affected the left leg, my brother was totally paralysed from the waist!!!
I wish he was just paralysed, I would ve managed the situation, sever pains is an understatement, ma brother was in chronic pains every day n night, he dosent sleep at night so do the whole family, cos he will wake us up with scream n pains. At times we will just watch him helplessly n confused.
My late brother even attempted suicide
Severally, I will always give him hope that he will be fine yet he was never fine untill his death. Am so hurt, I wish God gives me the fortitude to bear this. And I pray God grants his gentle soul eternal REST in jesus name, Amen.

cap28: 100% - you can google the quote, he said even worse things about freed slaves and was thinking of repartriating freed slaves to Haiti after the civil war.
can you open a thread on this.. or are there verifiable sources.. would like to know more

if this is true, even americans dont know about this

i had always wondered myself why it took a long time from the war in 1800s to segregation dismantlement in the 60s before blacks could run things

OR BETTER STILL LOOK AT CANADA OR AUSTRALIA

Jeezy: Ok. So, somebody in my office wants to resign from a N300,000 per month job, go and study Computer Security in the US (saved up the tuition and rent- about $30,000), get a job after his Masters using his post-study work visa, HOPE that his employer will file for his work permit, and earn an estimated $50,000 a year (estimate based on current vacancies in that field).

For the Nigerians in the US, does the above plan sound realistic? Is there a remote chance that this might be a good plan? What are the odds?

We all come to crossroads in life where we have to decide on which way to go. This decision can make or ruin a person's life. Help this 'somebody in my office' make a wise, informed decision. undecided

Especially in naija. At least science and religion agree in mind control. Can't it be applied in this case?

(Very busy o, sorry I stopd responding)
Now my kweshion is this, why believe in it when u hv dat advantage tru ur unbelief? From ur post.
I will give u an insight. I know that biblical passage very well. But I don't apply it to myself. It might be happening to others, I simply don't care.
U get my jist?
If i get u, u dont doubt their existence but they have no influence on you... either by grace or by choice

See? we maybe in the same boat after all

Woged2005: I usually do not use bible quotations in my posts in order no to discourage our brothers and sisters from other religions from following the posts.

An artist asked a child the easiest thing to draw. The child mentioned, dog, house car, etc. The artist said No because people know what they look like so if you get it wrong, they will know; the easiest thing to draw is a 'Demon' because no one has seen them before or know what they look like. grin

I have not seen them before, have you? grin grin. Bible never said anywhere they marry and have babies though. to do that they must have reproductive organs to get a woman pregnant abi?
I refer you to my previous post.... we agree to disagree
Other religions u are referring to believe demons exist... i dont know why the bashfulness

Is demon an african word?have u heard of djinns before or did harry potter inspiration come from naija..

lol..
Christianity Etc › Re: Do You Believe In Spirit Wife And Husband? by pickabeau1: 1:26pm On Oct 05, 2013
bellong: I want to believe you have in your bible the part that Jesus cast out demons from a man. Are those demons people that died and roaming about? I do not like to engage in religious arguments that are not beneficial. Denial of the existence of a thing does not prevent it from operation.

Christianity Etc › Re: Do You Believe In Spirit Wife And Husband? by pickabeau1: 1:10pm On Oct 05, 2013
Rhythm: I think this is where most christians get it wrong. Christians spend time trying to discern things of the devil than the things of God. The essence of christianity is that christ died and defeated the devil, yet everyday you see Nigerian christians dedicating years to fighting already defeated stuffs like evil spirits and spirit husbands and bla. No one who calls himself a christian should even believe in these things,
If you dont believe they exist, how do you know they were defeated by the Lord
Christianity Etc › Re: Do You Believe In Spirit Wife And Husband? by pickabeau1: 1:02pm On Oct 05, 2013
Fair points,,, but u have not said anything about demons

Woged2005: Bible sais it's appointed unto man to die, & after that it's judgement. Therefore a dead person is either in Heaven, hell fire (or Purgatory, according to Catholics). That's the scripture! So all these spirits, ghosts, etc Nigerians see and marry, where are they from? Are you indirectly saying there's no judgement after death...dead people still roam about in Nigeria in spirit and marry? Your quotation referred to the Holy Spirit (the messenger), which according to the doctrine of trinity is God. Does God marry? And why don't we have spiritual husbands in UK that brought xtianity to Africa, or USA that originated pentecostal churches? They never talk about these things except we Africans who are trying to bring in our traditional beliefs/superstition into Christianity...

Ahaha..

Permit me I had to laff at the adhoc training on signals


But seriously.. You don't believe in the supernatural

I believe they exist .. I don't live in fear of them by virtue of my faith

Life is wide enough for all beliefs

I'm still waiting for ypp response

@ypp do you believe demons exist?

Woged2005: Just get me the picture of a spiritual husband or wife. Period! grin grin grin grin

1. Do you know how a cell phone works and how your signals are transmitted without wires to ur relative in USA, he hears ur voice and sees your number?
2. How your TV in the house receives signals, u see the image and hear the voice of Larry King in USA?
3. How about a plane carrying 200 passengers & over 1000tons of loads lifting up at Lagos, hanging in the air and flying blind to land safely in USA?, etc Guess what? they were all invented by human beings, and not spirits.

If the inventors of these marvels wasted their intelligence believing in spirits, you and I will not be on Nairaland today..
