realmindz:lol, crazy comment, anyways, that was their culture then, and we should understand it that way.... My only problem with modern day Christianity and Religion as a whole especially Africans is their taste to modify the bible and other holy books in other to put men into more bondage. And i tell you, that's our major set back. Little wonder why the original owners of these religious believes are miles ahead of us in everything, but us wey carry am for head dey thousands of years behind. And like OP, he still want to go back more, chai |

Pharisees and Sadducees. Even Jesus was conceived out of wed lock. If sex out side wedlock was such a big deal, why was he conceived out side wedlock.Let he that is without sin be the first to cast the stone. EternalBeing: |

Elvis778:That was the culture then, so barbarism is condoned as long as time range differs... But a supposed God should have made it clear from beginning what it condones and what it does not condone.... |

safarigirl:don't bash him, his comment is the best here, why do you think Nigeria is more of a failed state than America and Britain Despite being in top 5 most religious country?PARENTING. They got that more than us, they are the best in that aspect and that's why their society is more organised, Thanks |

Those days when pregnancy was a taboo. A shame to the girl, her parents and clan. But today, we celebrate baby mamas. Whatever that means. |

Elvis778:Parenting....do you know the number of American kids going through depression? Do you know the number of black people that are killed in their own neighborhoods by police officers? Do you know the number of deaths from gang-related violence in America? Do you know how many kids have lost their lives because someone lost his temper and went on a shooting spree in the US? Do you know how many people have been killed in your cherished US because someone did not like the way they dressed, the color of their skins or their sexual orientation? We can see the effects of model parenting in the US that you so much cherish. I would advise you to stop watching Disney and get with the real facts as regards your model countries. Their parenting isn't awesome either. |

realmindz:you still don't understand me bro, Modern day religion is the one picking out what GOD condems and what he accepts..... For instance, "Eating with a girl from same plate before marriage is a Sin" what nonsense? We Africans are just busy creating burden and torment for our selves in the guise of Religion, not knowing that's devil's best tool. For ur info, Sin is not really what Devil uses to get to man, his main tool is GUILT. He tries to make us feel guilty and once he achieve that, we will personally move away from God, Hiding from his presence just like Adam did. This means that if we Africans keep creating stuffs like dis, stuffs dat make us feel unnecessary guilt, we will remain far away from God and will never move forward. |

safarigirl:no society is 100% in terms of standards, but u'll agree with me dat if US is 10% away from becoming perfect, Nigerians are still 90% away cuz we have failed in d act of parenting |

safarigirl:It's still about Freedom of choices..Freedom to Kill...You can't kill now cause you don't have the Freedom(in your Mind)..They know it's against the Law,but they still do it and in most cases,accept responsibility and face the music..No better Freedom,i think Ma'am. |

safarigirl:peer groups have their influence, yes the media has it's own influence, yes (these days big influence) I am not denying that, and anyone denying that is not serious I'm just saying that the GREATEST influence on one's life especially at the formative years are the PARENTS, and better raised kids are in a better position to maje better choices, regardless of other influences. that's all I'm saying And besides this comment you made as quoted below Did someone's father tell him that Yahoo is the best way to make money? Is it parents that tell their kids to kidnap?is somewhat naive ![]() Who are the ones receiving the proceeds of crime (is it not the parents? ) who are the ones collecting money from children they KNOW are not into big legit things and are not asking the pertinent questions? . even mother's are pushing their kids into crime these days in Nigeria (not all tho) People who steal were not taught contentment by their parents many atimes) Because parents STOPPED quizzing their kids on the source of their income, and don't even care, it gave them an extra incentive to commit these crimes. You CANNOT downplay the influence and the responsibility of PARENTS in shaping their children So that they won't be victims of bad influence, or being bad influence themselves to others "How many parents can effectively parent?" you see; this above proves my point that because many parents cannot effectively parent, we are having nuisance everywhere The media and peer groups have their influence But Parents are the BIGGEST influence on their kids (if they are ready for it) |

EternalBeing:Does days will never come as long as they keep on manufacturing those rubbish. And our men keep promoting and admiring those indecency. Take a look at some home . Formally a woman would tire her wrapper and still be admired by her husband but now when she does that it will be an excuse for her her husband promiscuity. Can you bring back those days when women are called home builders , she takes care of her home and other things. Can you also bring back those days our fathers act as the head of the house @breadwinners of the home, now men prefer taking care of their side chicks than their family many things have gone wrong only if God can destroy the world and start afresh just like in the time if the bible . |

safarigirl:. Free will is the ability to choose between different possible courses of action unimpeded. I strongly recommend we humans need to first be secure in ourselves, know yourself and have clarity in who you are. A lot of people don not even know themselves let alone their boundaries, yes the world WANTS you to be a certain way to be accepted but what do you NEED for yourself. I live in this same world where alot of girls feel if you don't do sugar daddy you're not wise but i chose my path & love to own & be in control of my feeling & life. What do you need to be YOU & make a choice to be that person regardless of what the world thinks of you. What do you think yourself?. |

specie103:There was never such day Our fore fathers weren't even as religious as these days. There wasn't anything as "birth out of wedlock" as long as the parents gave consent. Then, no one needed the approval of one pastor or church before they got married. They married young girls and several wives. Let's stop this illusion please |

kennyz247:Don't mind them, ignorant people. Religion wasn't even as controlling as these days. No one would be disgraced or cursed in a church for getting pregnant once the parents gave consent. They didn't even need any church to get married. |

Ugosample:Please leave the Saudis out of your madness, they are not complaining. In fact they are grateful everyday that our Creator has guided them to the religion of truth and righteousness, Which country can you compare to Qatar, Saudi, Kuwait, UAE, Malaysia etc in terms of Morality? Islam is the only solution. You Christians only know how to glorify and protect sinners, you and your western collaborators have succeeded in turning Europe, Central and South Asia, South, West and East Africa, North and South America to Sinners Den, even your Pope is protecting and glorifying gays and lesbians. All praises and adoration be to Allah for guiding us to Islam. |

Palehair:I'm not a Christian but this your comment is arrant crap. Firstly, chastity was not only meant for women in societies. It was celebrated for men and women. Or are you too dumb to see that it takes two to have sex? Secondly, religion is not only meant to prevent hurting others. It is also meant to prevent hurting yourself. Perhaps you should sanction the FRSC for penalising people when they don't wear helmet. And yes, the TV is more or less the devil's box. It spreads promiscuity in the name of entertainment and all sorts. Your body and soul doesn't belong to you, you didn't create it! |
