All of the above frivolous expenses just to make love to a woman I met online!?!?

I have stopped that madness since. Imagine spending such on 24 different ladies in one year, we are talking of 756,000 Naira in just a year because I want to prove that I am not a stingy man. I repeat, it will never happen again.

Until some single men realize the frivolous error they are doing and until some ladies understand that they are missing their husbands because they want it all in a day then we will keep on having numerous unmarried spinsters and bachelors.

Some men should please receive sense, spend wisely on your wife or your wife to be. Think about tomorrow.

People who were taught not to question their religious indoctrination will always feel persecuted by those who have the common sense to question their beliefs. This is their cognitive dissonance kicking in. They can't believe anyone has the audacity to question what they were taught not to. People can refuse to go to church or mosque because they don't want to, it's that simple. It's funny when religious people look at you with pity in their eyes, when you reject their teachings, like they have won the lotto and you're missing out on something big. Let people be, you preach live and let live, yet wake people up every money with noise, preach on buses, go from house to house and shiit. If religious people had their way, they would throw people in jail for not practicing religion. I say this because one moment they are enticing you with heaven, the next, scaring you with eternal damnation.

Church is a building, just like Niteclubs, restuarants, Hotel rooms, casinos, Brothels and cinemas rooms.


The only difference is Scamming pastors are making so much money from church businesses without paying any taxes.

Goods question.

It's been seven years since I last went to church on my own terms without forceful invitation or wedding related.

I can tell you this.

1.i believe if the church is meant to teach and correct and the Bible treated as a curriculum I should've been done with the Bible in atleast 10 years.

2.they preach the same thing over and over again.
I believe every human knows right from wrong so they don't need anybody reminding them.

3. I follow the ten commandments and most of all love ur neighbor as yourself, if you do follow the ten commandments u will henof no sin, but to sin is part of human nature so no matter the preach we will still sin.

4. The Bible is just a collection of books collected by men,
Yes we may say books written by apostles or disciples with inspiration from God but in a language different from what we know today.dont you think some meaning could've been lost because of translation from men.
Today we have many versions of Bible where same passage may mean different things contextually.

5.the church is now materialized.
You can't go to church without thinking how you look, if you're presentable or not and if you're not you decide not to go to church, pure hipocrisy because u placed your looks above the God you wish to worship.

6.the church is now a business oriented institution,
If I don't have money for offering and tight I feel guilty, why? Because we have been conditioned by our society Wich was conditioned by religion to give offering.

Churches building schools that their members can't attend with the offering from members.
Where do their profits go.

Men of God outshining the reachest men flaunting their wealth gotten from church coffers.

7.worst is the different churches breaking out from another church for a selfish purpose.

8.its filled with gossipers and unwanted competition from fellow members, show off from members etc.

9.theres is no love in the church.

10.they preach prosperity and leave the issues surrounding us outside making us feel we haven't achieved anything while listening to their sermons.

11. The pastor's don't even know the history of their religion.

12. Worst is when I'm told not to question the things God has done and how he did it.
The choose to blind me by saying have faith and believe.

I don't even want to go to stickers, holy water,

I can bet you are not a Catholic.
If you want listen to preaching, then you have to join the charismatic renewal.
The Sundays is for Eucharistic celebration.
Catholic go to Church on Sunday just for the sole reason to receive the body and blood.
The little preaching on Sunday is jus to spice up the celebration.
If you want to hear preaching then join the charismatic.
Catholic can not be Pentecostal, catholic gave birth to them.
Little by little Pentecostal s are succumbing to the Catholic doctrines like Trinity, some have accepted Mary as their mother and currently, most have started giving Communions in the name of communion service.
Communion and Holy communion are two different things. Only a priest can give Holy communion.
Make I go bathe go prepare for 10am mass.

My brother, I call you my brother because I'm a Catholic too.
Now get this, the thing you have to understand about the Catholic Church is that it's focus is on teaching you specific aspects of Christianity at a particular time. That's why the readings are broken down and choosen in such a way that they tell the same message.
You are expected to go to church every Sunday because each Sunday has a different message to pass on to you. Like you said they do the reading of how Jesus fed 5000 people with five loaves of bread, it is the duty of the priest to break down the message into something that can be applied in your daily life. The Catholic Church is not like the Protestants where they want to teach you every thing and inspire you all in one day. NO
And speaking about inspiring you, there are societies you can get involved with during the week for that, rather than being a Sunday Sunday Christian.

7 straight years of not stepping inside a church

In the last 15 years , may be less than 5 times sha.. Sorry what are they doing there?

When a rich man that can employed all the congregations wont do, he can't even help the the obvious people in need but prefers to donate all to the pastor and church...

Only in Nigeria they will start a meeting with prayers, lie through out the meeting and still end it with prayers.

Btw, Nigeria politicians do acttend church and mosque too

deltateam:


Why is it that atheists, Moslems etc will rush and comment senselessly on Christian thread.

Seun, lalasticlala, puskin its time to accept allegiance to Jesus before being able to comment on Christian threads just as you do for Moslems.

OneKinGuy:

You see how stoopid you are. People like you are one of the reasons I hate being refered to as a Christian. So because I commented simple truth am not an atheist /Muslim ODE!

chronique:
Woke up today thinking of all my very huge financial obligations and it's made me sad and depressed. So I'm not going to church. I'm just stuck in bed thinking of where and how to raise a few millions to sort out very pressing issues. Truly, uneasy lies the head that wears the crown. Growing up is a scam o. Expenses left, right and centre. They didn't tell me when I was a child that when I grow up, this is how I'd be running from pillar to post to meet up with my responsibilities. If they had told me, I wouldn't have grown up. I'd have just remained a todler.

No motivation. Christianity in Nigeria is something else

efighter:


Are you mentally balanced? What do you mean that "He/She is everywhere"? HE is everywhere. Don't repeat this mistake again. HE is God. HE is a He. Now, get up, dress up and get your black ass to Church before I close and open my eyes.

pattern100:

Serving God is plainly from the heart. Taking pastor as a measure or reasons to go to church will eventually bring ' no motivation' one day.

Hmmm

God please forgive me for not going to church to worship you today.

Forgive you
Which part of the bible tells you that going to church is part of righteousness, or that not going to church is a sin?
Perhaps the only bible portion you have in mind is Hebrews 10:25.
