FriendNG:Thank you very much. Most Nigerian Christians seem to be battling with low self-esteem in recent times. Perhaps they are pained that their evangelism hasn't garnered as much success as they hope for. Or how do you call a group of people that seem to tag every action (both good and bad) as potential Islamization in a country with over 80 million Christians? 2 Likes 1 Share |

Nbote: Chaiiiii!!!! You're an olodo, what I'm I saying what are you saying? I maintained weekends in Saudi Arabia is Friday-Saturday, Sunday is scrapped. Here's what the source you referenced state: Saudi Arabia has announced it is switching its official weekend to Fridays and Saturdays, bringing the kingdom’s working week closer in line with other countries in a move long desired by many of the country’s businesses. So what exactly are you saying? Or you don't understand English anymore? Here's a link to Pakistan refusing to replace Sunday with Friday .. It's their business, Pakistan is one of the few Muslim countries that use this. Majority of Muslims countries have Sundays as working days. And here's a list of weekdays and weekends in most countries around d world including Islamic countries and d year dey changed their weekdays and weekends.. There's nothing new here, I was the one who actually gave you this link to read! 1 Like 1 Share |

Kingspin:The Gregorian calendar is what? During the Middle Ages in western Europe, while the Julian calendar was still in use, authorities moved New Year's Day variously, depending upon locale, to one of several other days, among them: 1 March, 25 March, Easter, 1 September, and 25 December. Beginning in 1582, the adoptions of the Gregorian calendar and changes to the Old Style and New Style dates meant the various local dates for New Year's Day changed to using one fixed date, January 1. January 1 is itself a religious holiday, but that is because it is the feast of the circumcision of Christ (8 days after His birth), and a commemoration of saints . Sorry i know u don't know ur religion very well, if we are to dabble into the Constantine effect on Christianity you will know u have no festival. Moreover i am not a mosque fanatic everything i say is from disscussion with rational people and reading |
Re: List Of Christian Public Holidays Design To Christianize Nigeria by proudlyYoruba(m): 12:08pm On Sep 22, 2017 |
Kingspin:The Anglican Church and the Lutheran Church celebrate the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ on January 1, based on the belief that if Jesus was born on December 25, then according to Hebrew tradition, his circumcision would have taken place on the eighth day of his life (January 1). The Roman Catholic Church celebrates on this day the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, which is also a Holy Day of Obligation. In the United States, New Year's Day is a postal holiday 1 Like |

But I won't sit and watch some eediot like that aboki pull out baseless/untruthful facts to justify a religion. Just say muslims want to celebrate their islamic year and we're okay with that but spouting shite like sun and new year days are Christian public day is huge bullshite. |

diadem10: How does that change the fact that sunday is a christian shit impose on Muslim in a bit to christinize Nigeria Mr. sheep Sunday is the "day of rest and worship". Jewish Shabbat or Biblical Sabbath lasts from sunset on Friday to the fall of full darkness on Saturday; as a result, the weekend in Israel is observed on Friday–Saturday. Some Muslim-majority countries historically had a Thursday–Friday or Friday–Saturday weekend; however, recently many such countries have shifted from Thursday–Friday to Friday–Saturday, or to Saturday–Sunday. The Christian Sabbath was just one day each week, but the preceding day (the Jewish Sabbath) came to be taken as a holiday as well in the twentieth century. This shift has been accompanied by a reduction in the total number of hours worked per week, following changes in employer expectations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workweek_and_wee |

victorDanladi: No colonial changed anything. There was nothing like Nigeria before the whites came, remember? I have no problem with weekends being Thurs and Wed. All I know is the worldwide weekend days are sat and sun. Even the french folks who have mixed religions have same sun and sat as their weekends. |
