I pity married men cos they don't know the joy and total rejuvenation accompanying relaxed solitude.

Maybe in a garden or any serene environment. The stress relieving moment lowers BP and increases longevity.

The joy of being alone, having your own space without bother, noise, demands, quarrels/arguments, tops years to a man's life, as you feel so at home with nature which when done in the cool of the evening can elicit trance or deeper revelation of Mother nature, I mean the Maker, Jehovah God.

Just try it once. You will sell your wife and kids for the repeat of the experience.

It's a studio shot so most definitely enhanced.

I want you to appreciate someone God put on this earth for a purpose for who I have the privilege of fathering and raising.

LoL! You know what's funny? I just read a thread on reddit.com were people were asked what's eating them up inside, you should see the tales of woe lonely people put up. How they feel their mental health and communication/social skills are deteriorating because they live all alone. These are people who have jobs and fend for themselves but are in a bad state because of loneliness. Solitude is good in short bursts, forever alone is bad for your mental health.

Edit: please also consider this passage in your journey of life

Ecclesiastes 4:8-12
There was a man all alone; he had neither son nor brother. There was no end to his toil, yet his eyes were not content with his wealth. “For whom am I toiling,” he asked, “and why am I depriving myself of enjoyment?” This too is meaningless— a miserable business! Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

Then complete your studies by reading Francis Bacon essays on "Of Marriage and single life".

Which starts with this:

"HE that hath wife and children hath given hostages to fortune; for they are impediments to great enterprises, either of virtue or mischief. Certainly the best works, and of greatest merit for the public, have proceeded from the unmarried or childless men;"

Moreover, the place you quoted in the Bible talks about GOOD TWO and is in OLD TESTAMENT (OLD WILL OF GOD).

If its automatically applicable to marriages, WHY DO WE HAVE DIVORCES, DISAPPOINTMENTS AND FAILURES IN MARRIAGES TODAY? Like the one I posted above.


Well, let's go to New testament(NEW WILL OF GOD) and see what It says:

29 But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;

30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;

31 And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.

32 But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:

33 But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife. 1 Corinthians 7:29-33 King James Version (KJV).

ColinAdua you know what you are quoting also applies to you with all your cares for the things of this world? You are begging God for houses and a big fancy car and some how you think that makes you better than married people? What a laugh, LoL. Mister you are some how deluding yourself that caring for the things of this world only includes wife and children but conveniently forget warnings like 1Tim.6:9. Do you recall what Jesus told the rich young ruler who came to him? Go, sell all thou hast and come follow me. You seem to want to be like Jesus and Paul right down to how they lived personally so I ask you whence all these desires to have houses and cars? You think you are better because you are single? LoL think again dear fellow.

You were writing about the advantages two(marriages) from Old testament so I had to show you in new testament where it says that in this last days those that are two should stay as if they are one.

Yes! Its better because there's no marriage in Heaven but there are fancy flying cars and houses.

Jesus told us to pray "Thy will be done in earth as it is in Heaven". He also told us to "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all THESE THINGS shall be added unto you"

So how is it done in Heaven? In Heaven there's RIGHTEOUSNESS AND PROSPERITY. The street is paved with gold.

I must be a very big hypocrite to pray "Thy will be done in earth as it is in Heaven", pursue righteousness and neglect Houses, cars and riches that are also provided ('done') in Heaven which I know I need here more than wife.

I must also be a very big lying unbelieving hypocrite if I seek first the Kingdom of God, (because I want to make HEAVEN) and reject all these things that are suppose to be added, to it, knowing full well I need them to solve my problems and glorify God here on earth.

I want riches to:
1) tackle my daily life challenges.

2) have boldness to give testimonies.

3) prove that the Christian God is still interested in changing lives for good.

4) effectively serve my Jehovah God for the few years am going to stay on this horrible earth.

I don't want riches to waste in school fees, weddings, maternity whatever and parade unreliable people as achievements.

Let's be clear about something, I don't have the slightest interest in contesting singlehood vs marriage which is better. I have made my choice for the lifestyle I want and I believe everyone is free to choose theirs. The things I write here are to counter what I see as incomplete/erroneous information.

You wrote about solitude and how married people should exchange their wives and children for constant solitude. I showed you how some people's lives are miserable due to constant solitude and how the Bible reflects on constant solitude. This has nothing to do with proving that marriage is better just an FYI for you to remember the detrimental effects of constant solitude. Neither Jesus nor Paul were constantly alone, they took time off to pray and came back to interact with people on a very large scale so don't get it twisted.

Secondly let's examine your want of riches. Jesus and Paul who you want to model your life on were not rich, owned no houses or any animals (the cars of their time lol) yet they solved a lot more problems than you. So the big question is are you truly after riches to serve or just to satisfy your own lusts? Jesus didn't show off the latest purebred Arabian breed white horse (equivalent of a Ferrari and in modern times such a horse will buy 4 Ferraris and still have change) to brag about how God can change lives. There is no record of Paul owning one either so exactly what problem is your Jaguar F-pace solving that some other modest car is not? How many rooms can you alone occupy that you need houses? All these things are just indicative of fleshly lusts, the very same accusation you throw at married people.

As I said and say again I am not interested in arguing about which is better but lets be honest about things instead of flinging mud because we want to out shine the other.

EDIT: this your statement -
I don't want riches to waste in school fees
Makes me wonder, was your childhood so bad that you consider your schooling a waste? Was your family life that troublesome you find nothing good to say about it? I am genuinely asking because your utterances are revealing some underlying pains.

I prefer the so called wife in form of HOUSES.

When I saw the picture of your kids, truthfully, what came to my mind immediately was;

"Na a, not me and you, these ones will turn the bedroom and sitting room upside down and inside out within seconds.

And these ones can wake up around 2:00am to ask for tea and bread or noodles".

That's too bad cos I love a very organized quiet place and the easiest way to make me hate you is to disturb my sleep.

Am a chronic introvert, a technician, I read a lot and write often. A light sleeper and sleep late.

So I naturally love a cool calm quiet serene environment.

That's why I live in a rural area even with all the mockeries, ridicule and scorn, but I refused to re-locate to a noisy city.

I love quiet solitary serene environment so much that I have decided to sacrifice having children(I love children) to treasure my cool calm alone time.

Even now that am typing this, that's where am relaxing, enjoying cool evening breeze under the moonlight.
Having a wife does not preclude having a house - and vice-versa. Indeed, having one means you'll most likely get or need the other grin. As for kids, yes, it is hard work, but it's a joy. Sure it's costly, but it's a blessing beyond measure.

Reedy, I think this has been thoroughly parsed. Na to spam with pictures remain grin.

Countering information means you are contesting against it. Hence, you are contesting against singlehood being seen as better.

I didn't talk about constant solitude. I talked about RELAXED SOLITUDE. Its not possible to experience constant solitude in this world today, neither is it possible to be so alone that one becomes miserable, except the person is so selfish, lazy, wicked or mentally deranged.

Anyone who says he/she is so lonely as to get miserable, needs to examine him/herself cos there are 1 million and 1 things one can occur himself with today and forgets about loneliness.

I've told you why I want riches already. Don't bring out what is not there. I want riches because its the total package.

Moreover, have you forgotten that Jesus Christ rode brand new unsaddled colt, had supper in a luxury suite (guest chamber upper room) and wore a unique kind of cloth wicked soldiers couldn't have the heart to tear. If its today it would've been designers.

Are you more spiritual than Jesus Christ Himself who promised me a hundredfold of houses on this earth? You can see underlying pains but you can't what one can do with houses. Ask those who own estates in Abuja what one can do with houses.

So used Jaguar F-Pace that one atheist or agnostic or wayward goon has desecrated is not modest enough to you. Meanwhile, only the meridian sound system on F-Pace is enough to choose it above your so called modest cars, if am to buy it brand new.

Am not interested in out shining anyone. Am interested in speaking my mind and pursuing HAPPYNESS.

All through this thread, I kept telling you about not wanting unnecessary trouble and burden but you chose to see underlying pains.

Well, look more closely again because you still need to see that am not the person to tell you whether my schooling is a waste but the person that paid the school fees. And you also need to see that I've been telling you that I LOVE TO BE ALONE.

Don't run to assumptions that is not there so that you won't fling mud because you need to outshine the other.

I still maintain that human beings are very unreliable. My Bible and experience says so.

But that's marriage for you. Let me hold it there for now.

In as much as I enjoy those pics, they didn't move me a bit. Cos I see them as a bunch of trouble.

Moreover, I have seen more beautiful kids even Mulattos. In fact, one of my cousins is a mulatto.

Meanwhile, exposing minors on social media wantonly doesn't seem like a wise decision to me.

I'm not sure what's obtainable, but I'm sure if one has the means, it can be shipped in. Having said that na ordinary wood.

I would love more kids. In fact, the kind of numbers I have in mind would demand polygamy grin. But I am grateful and content with what God has blessed me with.

I can show you mixed race kids among my own family if you like. And as for beauty or any other characteristics, these ones are mine and that trumps all. But you wouldn't understand really would you tongue.

Sorry! Am not concerned. I just imagined that if they are mine kids, I will feel a little uncomfortable with the over exposure. Kinda like unpacking my box on national TV.

Wood? No! I live in a termite infested area. Termites here are out for vengeance seems like they bear chisels, saws on their teeth. You keep fumigating, no way.

Dont bother! I love kids but they don't move me. Cos I have seen and advised lots of parents here who seem tired of too much disturbance from their kids.

I always tell them: if they don't disturb you, is it me they should disturb? When you were conceiving them and licking lips, didn't you know they will disturb you? My friend get up and face what you ordered!

I don't want to understand. I want to understand JEHOVAH GOD, MONEY, HOUSES, CARS, DESIGNERS CLOTHS, SMART DEVICES AND SINGLEHOOD!

wink

ColinAdua:
Countering information means you are contesting against it. Hence, you are contesting against singlehood being seen as better.
This is very faulty reasoning. I have never in all of my interactions with you written that marriage is better than singlehood. I have never even presented any of my arguments as though I want to show marriage as better than singlehood. You on the other hand are the one trying to move heaven and earth to show that singlehood is better than marriage. All I have done is to tell you when you are providing erroneous or incomplete information. For instance when you and the other fellow were arguing that single people make more money/are richer than married people and I countered that with showing you a number of married people who are billionaires. If you construed that as telling you that marriage is better then either your arguments is weak or your reasoning is because that piece of information was not given to show that marriage is better.

One of the reasons I will not categorically say this or the other is better is because as far I am concerned it is a subjective position. For you singlehood is better and you are much welcome to take that stance. To some other person marriage is better and he also is welcome to take that position. To judge subjective positions on a scale is an exercise in futility but hey you want to do it so go right ahead but the caveat is you cannot use misinformation to buttress your position.

I didn't talk about constant solitude. I talked about RELAXED SOLITUDE. Its not possible to experience constant solitude in this world today, neither is it possible to be so alone that one becomes miserable, except the person is so selfish, lazy, wicked or mentally deranged.

Anyone who says he/she is so lonely as to get miserable, needs to examine him/herself cos there are 1 million and 1 things one can occur himself with today and forgets about loneliness.
You were talking of solitude and I addressed solitude but you start thinking I am talking of marriage being better. That passage in Eccelesiates was not referring to marriage alone so you really need to kool down and stop seeing everything as an argument for or against singlehood.

I've told you why I want riches already. Don't bring out what is not there. I want riches because its the total package.

Moreover, have you forgotten that Jesus Christ rode brand new unsaddled colt, had supper in a luxury suite (guest chamber upper room) and wore a unique kind of cloth wicked soldiers couldn't have the heart to tear. If its today it would've been designers.
First of why did Jesus ride the donkey? Was simple to boast or show off? Or was was it to fulfil prophecy? And the prophecy He was fulfilling what did it say?

Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt. John 12:15 KJV.

A King riding on a donkey, did they tell you that kings ride on donkeys? Or that kings ride on the best of horses? How can you even compare a donkey and a horse? It is like comparing Ferrari and Civic. Lemme ask you when Jesus is coming again is He going to be riding a donkey or a horse?

About his clothes, this is another piece of incomplete information people just carry around without really reading the Bible, just like the so called 3 wise men. The clothes that were on Jesus during the crucifixion event were not His regular clothes, they were the clothes Herod put on Him to mock Him.

And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
Luke 23:11 KJV

This is why I challenge things like this because people base their opinions and thoughts on incomplete information.

Are you more spiritual than Jesus Christ Himself who promised me a hundredfold of houses on this earth? You can see underlying pains but you can't what one can do with houses. Ask those who own estates in Abuja what one can do with houses.

So used Jaguar F-Pace that one atheist or agnostic or wayward goon has desecrated is not modest enough to you. Meanwhile, only the meridian sound system on F-Pace is enough to choose it above your so called modest cars, if am to buy it brand new.
Let's look at that scripture and then ask you to explain certain things

And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
Matthew 19:29 KJV

So should I be looking forward to hundredfold of wives and children since you are looking forward to a hundredfold of houses?

Am not interested in out shining anyone. Am interested in speaking my mind and pursuing HAPPYNESS.
HAPPINESS not HAPPYNESS. Abi you will say I am saying marriage is better because I corrected you? LoL

All through this thread, I kept telling you about not wanting unnecessary trouble and burden but you chose to see underlying pains.

Well, look more closely again because you still need to see that am not the person to tell you whether my schooling is a waste but the person that paid the school fees. And you also need to see that I've been telling you that I LOVE TO BE ALONE.

Don't run to assumptions that is not there so that you won't fling mud because you need to outshine the other.

I still maintain that human beings are very unreliable. My Bible and experience says so.
Because I don't want to make any assumptions is why I asked you those questions. You spoke down about your father, you write things that anyone who values where he is coming from will not write. I have never seen where a person who values education will so casually write that he doesn't want to waste money on school fees. Maybe you have a new perspective for education I don't know about if so you really need to explain it.

Of course humans are unreliable even the best of us but all we have is each other. Even the Bible says God won't come down from heaven to meet the needs of your brother who needs help, it is you, yes you unreliable human being that will supply that need. If God wants us to love ourselves despite our shortcomings then who are you to make fun of our shortcomings?

ColinAdua:
Sorry! Am not concerned. I just imagined that if they are mine kids, I will feel a little uncomfortable with the over exposure. Kinda like unpacking my box on national TV.
Any concern is sorely misplaced as noted. My kids are not being "exposed" to anything, I am merely showing you" their pictures" as you requested. E dey pepper you eh grin?

ColinAdua:
Wood? No! I live in a termite infested area. Termites here are out for vengeance seems like they bear chisels, saws on their teeth. You keep fumigating, no way.
I'm sure there are treatments, other than that there are "faux" woods and laminates that present the same look. Anyway, we have wood - downstairs - 'cos it's the best for messy kids. Carpet upstairs.

ColinAdua:
Dont bother! I love kids but they don't move me. Cos I have seen and advised lots of parents here who seem tired of too much disturbance from their kids.
Don't struggle to contradict yourself. What you love does not move you? Please explain your passion for material things then. Is that different to love. And I needn't remind you of the Lords words about little ones - He loved them and was moved by them cool.

ColinAdua:
I always tell them: if they don't disturb you, is it me they should disturb? When you were conceiving them and licking lips, didn't you know they will disturb you? My friend get up and face what you ordered!
Typically when parents "complain", it's "faux" complaining and storytelling. It's more about not being able to talk about anything else. And probably in your case not to make you feel bad about not having your own family. They were being compassionate - even if wrongly so grin.

ColinAdua:
I don't want to understand. I want to understand JEHOVAH GOD, MONEY, HOUSES, CARS, DESIGNERS CLOTHS, SMART DEVICES AND SINGLEHOOD!
All that and a wife and children to cool

ColinAdua:
I pity you people.
Absolutely no reason to. On the contrary, one would wonder why anyone would forego the godly and sanctified blessing of a spouse and children - especially so they could pursue material things like iPhonehuh
