Every suicide in Nigeria has a link to football betting

JasonScoolari:
The pains his immediate family will go through will be unbearable....



"Stay alive for those who love you"

That's my message for anyone contemplating suicide.

Deep, man. I lost my dad last week wednesday. The emotional trauma hasn't been easy to go through with, for me. He was just 62.

I really feel hurt because I wanted him to stay longer and at the least, see me get married.

I fully understand what his family would be going through at the moment. It hurts deeply to speak the least of. Eternal pains and agony that may never heal.

I HATE DEATH.

have u bet b4?

doggedfighter:

Just look at you now but you were busy throwing insults even when he was polite in all his replies.
Change your ways. It's a small world

Get thee behind me.

You have no unfinished business with me.

You take my word as an insult, that is due to your lack of self esteem, insecurities, and objectivity.

It's a small world indeed, offence affecting your sense of objectivity and judgement speaks more of you.

Hmmm I remember about two three years wey na suicide suicide I dey always think. I dey reason to get sniper anyhow then drink. But now I no go fit kill myself again because I no want make my mother cry again as my elder brother Don die already. As for me I don tire but I know say one day things go pure and I go happy. Rest in peace to this brother. Hyn for still dey manage like me.

This is what I responded to .

ProfAmaben:
Life is hard, as an atheist, I don't support him because this is the only life we have.

And this was my response.

What is the meaning or essense of life if the pleasure, pain and experience is only for a short time.

Your own question.

LordShiva97:

Does the ephemerality of life in any way diminishes it's essence or "meaning", if so, then how?

Can you first tell me what is the meaning of Life so that I can reason if Life being ephemeral decreases it's meaning or life being permanent makes it more meaningful?

Only Life we have doesn't automatically makes Life have a meaning or does it?

Does a person with 2 or 10 lives have a meaningful(using your definition of meaningful) and the person with 1 dont?

Religions give a plausible answer to the essense of Life, Science doesn't, infact it gives rise to its own more questions in most cases.

Scientists should please, Get lost in their questions and finding answers, thier answers never is an answer without more questions.

They should leave the Religionists alone abeg.

akin101:
this guy is high on something

Yes, high on dealing with Nairaland buffons.

Officialgarri:
Debt

This is one disadvantage of white collar jobs. You go out everyday with well tailored suit and tie.
Everyone thinks money dey
They respect you and use you as a yardstick.

But your fear starts; when your debt profile is high and the fear of getting fired anytime

There is nothing in this post that remotely suggested that he was in debt.

Are you in dept?
Are you contemplating suicide?
Please talk to someone....

Jeff Bezos with all his billions cannot buy the Mona Lisa. What benefit does the Mona Lisa serve that makes it worth so much despite it being just an oil painting on canvas that has no afterlife value? If you can figure that out then you'll have your answer.

I understand you more than you think, I just find your argument extremely flawed.

Well, I'm not sure. Maybe it's because it's arguably LDVC's best painting, and it can't be duplicated. It was painted with just an oil on a wood panel. Now that's something you don't get to see everyday. So I guess it serves as an inspiration for other painters, it "speaks" to painters in a language only them can understand. Therefore, it's a LDVC's legacy which has lived and will continue to live on for ages -- that's the value it upholds.

Your point may be that he didn't do all those things because he thought of an afterlife, he did it because of his natural passion for it. He probably didn't even believe in the afterlife lol. Now my question is, would it have made any difference if he chose not to paint? I mean what value did his paintings fetch HIM in the end? He's dead right now and just dust. He doesn't even know anything about his paintings.

Those who have been inspired by his paintings from his time up until our generation have died and will still die, so what difference would it all make if in the end they all won't give account of their lives? Going by this, everything then is just a cycle (suggesting that this world has no end). Then the inexistence of an afterlife should make me care pretty less how I live my life here.

Technically, if I knew that something wouldn't have any ultimate effect on my being, then even if it's the only thing I get to do, it doesn't make any difference whether I choose to do it or not.

You find my argument extremely flawed because you refuse to see things from a dimension that has the possibility to support the existence of an afterlife.

Let me throw a general question to you: Why exactly do you value the fact that you have only one life to live?

Ghostmode2two:
He should have spoken to someone close about his fears and worries

bro still they won't help o. I'm telling you.

LordReed:


It makes all the difference to you as the alive human. You are saying since this thing you have is only one and you'll never get another throw it away, how does that make sense to you? I have only one thing so waste it? That is so arse backwards, I find it hard to imagine why it sounds intelligent to you. That there is no afterlife so it is of no consequence since it doesn't factor into anything you do with your life, it doesn't mean you should throw away the one life you get. By any intelligent sense having only one of an irreplaceable thing makes it more valuable. There is only one original Mona Lisa painting and it has the highest insurance value of any painting but according to your "logic" it should be used as toilet paper because it is only one.

The cloth is VALUABLE in your argument but the victims life is USELESS and PAINFUL , that's his argument

ProfAmaben:

Lolzzz
Bruv there is only life nothing like death... And in a few years he would again be reborn.

Lalasticlalabos:


Bro, it must be debt o. I have not committed suicide because I dont have the balls to. In 4 - 8 days from now, I have almost 200k debt to pay and I dont have one naira. I want to sell my phone to at least pay some of it but no one is buying yet. I envy that guy cos I would have loved to be in his shoes and end it so I'll have rest

I pray you will never have "the balls" to take your life and may the devil never give you the courage to do so ! Just hold on, have faith in God and everything is going to be alright. We all have our pains somewhere but suicide is NEVER a solution.

Heavens will settle that debt of 200k for you before due date and bless you beyond your imaginations bro. I have my own problems too and I pray to God to replace my sorrows with happiness and restore my glory,amen.

Please ,no suicide bro ! It is well with you.

The truth is in Life,
"We'll have another chance after this, and
another chance after that. And still more chances.
So don't worry. Do the best you can. Don't
become so paralyzed with fear that you can't budge.
Promise yourself to do better,and get on with it."

Naturally, the early church couldn't hear of such a
thing. So it did two things. First, it denounced the
doctrine of reincarnation as heretical. Then it
created the sacrament of confession. Confession
could do for the churchgoer what reincarnation
promised, that's to be born again.

ProfAmaben:

No, may he have mercy on those that are dying of covid-19. Pray you don't lose your job because of covid-19 and ask Jesus to solve the covid-19 menace. I don't argue religious matters.

Just one question Ben. Were formerly religious, and what led to your conversion to Atheism.

Sorry I asked two questions.

averagejoee:
To all the people who are saying there is no God, I say enjoy the temporary pleasure your degrees, certificates , personal accomplishments all goodies of life can offer you. The life we live outside our Creator we can never find peace, inner peace for our Soul is found in Jehovah God

I leave you with the peace of God

Nothing happens against the will of God.

Life, and all that is occurring, is an expression of
God's will— your will—made manifest.
Your will is God's will.
Life is God's will, expressing perfectly. If something
was happening against God'swill, it couldn't happen.
By definition of Who and What God Is, it couldn't
happen.
Do you believe that one soul can
somehow decide something for another?
Do you believe that, as individuals, you can affect each
other in ways in which the other does not want to be affected?
Such a belief would have to be based on the idea that we are separate from each other.
Do you believe that you can somehow affect life in
a way in which God does not want life to be
affected? Such a belief would have to be based on
an idea that youare separate from God.Both ideas
are false.

Men invented the devil to scare people into doing
what they wanted, under the threat of separation
from God if they did not. Condemnation, being
hurled into the everlasting. Nothing can, or ever will, separate us from God.

Humanoid01:
People are going through a lot.

Like I said in a thread earlier:

You see people smiling and laughing like everything is good
with them, but you have no idea about the thoughts going
through their minds.

My broda, even the life itself is too difficult. i don't knw whether it is lyk dis everywhere in d world but in Nigeria it has been hell for people. Father can not take care of his children, student cn not pay they school fees and so on. God help us.

why are you still alive.

lol him don go do hidden loan to person wey no go fit pay back on time...bastard

okoroemeka:
the economic condition of a country does not warrant suicide,Japan is a well developed first world country with everything life can offer but they have one of the highest suicide rate in the world,I believe it is already a disturbed mind that can work up the guts to end his or her life,not knowing it is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

Well said. Suicide rate is higher in developed countries. A lot of people simply do not understand what depression is.

Lol.. That's deep philosophy. Why is life such a big deal? I guess we'll never know.

Humanoid01:

Those people who live that way do that because they don't understand what the afterlife entails. It's not a "second life" per se, but rather an aftereffect of the life we live here.

Knowing that there's an afterlife in which you'll have to give account of the life you live here should make you choose to live your best life here.

I have heard people saying since they are not going to die in hell, then they have no problem with it.

There's no such thing as afterlife, we are thesame as animals. We go back to the State we were b4 we were born.

emmaodet:


Sir, did you studied Mining Engineering?
The GNSS you talked about, GPS is preferred to it due to lower error difference.
GNSS is from Russia if am right

No, GNSS stands for global navigation satellite system and was developed by the US which is simply a constellation of 24+ satellites in orbit trying to give accurate location of the Earth using a GPS. The one for Russia is Glonass. The navigation satellite system is different from Earth observation satellite system such as landsat, Aster, Modis etc.

No he can. they just wouldn't sell to him just like your biro is probably just 50 naira but you're not obligated to sell it even for £500B

I'm sure this guy might even be the smiling and boisterous type, people like that usually hurt the most.

Most people see me as a very happy, energetic lady and all that, they don't see the pain because I have mastered the act of hiding it. Most times have thought of committing suicide but when i remember my parents and siblings and a lot of persons that believe and look up to me, I drop the suicide thought.

I mean life is damn hard.
Rip to him.

The cause can only be indebtedness.

What makes you so depressed to the point of contemplating suicide? do you mind talking about it?

Taking his life, does it not send him to hellfire; a big question. Chai! People say DEBT; it is not a sin nah to owe. Onye ji ugwo di ndu, anwugi anwu, ga akwu the debt!

no one should kill himself for this sweet life oooo. Nothing wey no get solution for this world. Trusting in the Lord, one day, you will get what is troubling you, resolved. May the soul of the departed Rest in Peace.

Please let no one kill himself for this wicked world over issues bothering you. if you cannot solve it at that moment, forget, ask for more time, you will get through.

Humanoid01:

Lol do you know why exactly you do the things you do? Like cherishing and not wasting this life? Why exactly do you not want to waste it?

Because I know the value
