doxijaw:
The most radical piece have read on nairaland in years.

Notice the lack of comments grin, meaning this is not interesting.

The African is "anti intellectual", only interested in entertainment/quick gains grin
Our major problem.

We hate intellectual discussion.

Our Naija Doctors will always give lack of equipment as an excuse, but the Indian counterparts doing wonders are in the same or even worse situation.


We just hate to stress our brains.

It will be an effort in futility discussing this kind of topic here. Majority of nigerians and African people here on this forum are not intellectually fit enough to handle this topic. Things that sell here are mostly celebrity gossips, entertainment and politics.

You will look stupid trying to go into full details of this topic here. This topic should be left solely for people with high IQ.

This topic is so advance for Our DNA, as blacks we have baked or burnt brains. Hence you see the rate of comments so discouraging yet the sad truth. We can't read intelligent notes, if it was sex or gossip and fight issues comments will run into thousands of pages. O I cry for Africa and more cries for Nigerians

Mental Health Is Key To Self Development But Unfortunately The Blacks Tend To Be Whatever They Are, Since They Have Not Even Realized Themselves How On Earth Are They Suppose To Progress. The Human Mind Is Powerful; It Is Only What You Visualize That You Can Capture Just Like Holdin' Up Your Phone Camera To Take A Snapshot.

There Will Only Be Change In Africa If We Change Our Mentality Towards Almost Everything; Compassion For Human Beings And Animals Even In The Way We Act, Our Word Should Be Our Worth Because There's No Cause For Swearing When You Have Said What You Said But Unfortunately The Believe System Is Battered Beyond Recovery That Is Why Trust Or Honesty Is A Hard Commodity To Acquire In The Society Nowadays.

We Do Not Like Anything Intelligent As You Can See With Those Rushing To Comment Even Though They Never Read The Piece. So With This Kind If Poor Mentality How Are We Going To Savage The Situation If Not By God's Grace.
Youths Spend Hours Watching Football And Stacking Matches At Bet9ja With Little Or Nothin' To Show For. Some Go About Looking For Little And Vulnerable Gals To Defile Or Sleep With, And A Chunk Of Them Spend Their Years In Beer Parlors Drinking And Smoking Their Lives.

We Really Need To Start Respectin' Time In This Country That's If We Truly Love Progress

Sub Saharan Africa refused to forge a success pathway for itself because the people can't see the big picture. We are too busy with religions, elite-worshipping, and other frivolities than to apply our brains to emancipate ourselves. Our best brains are often relegated to the back in leaderships and administrations, while the inept and thugs are elevated beyond their abilities. The gifted brains are frustrated out of the African continent to the Western world, and the cycle continues. No human values nor sustainable general value system to anchor on. And we become and remained the poorest in the world.

[s]God is actually a racist then if you're saying he's responsible for the "intelligence" and "vast discoveries" cos some cultures/races are more advanced than others

What Ur saying doesn't apply to Africans cos they never invented the wheel, had a written or unifying language and lagging technological.


"Science has not been able to understand the so much complexity that comes with our universe"

Yes! And they never claim to know everything, when they are wrong they backtrack.
Unlike religion that pushes theories as facts.

Saying god created people from a handful of dust makes more sense than evolution? LOL.

The earth being populated by only 2 people? TWICE?

FOH. Keep slotting God into your religion-induced delusion.[/s]
See your stupid analogy and logic.
God is racist but lol He is the one who created the different races. Mumu. If I am a teacher of a class and I teach all my students so you mean that they will all turn out with same ability like they are some robots. God has given man everything he needs to excel. If your race refuses to put in the smart work rate like the other races and instead choose to be just consumers instead of producers then don't come blaming God.

You unreasonable pathetic clown that have refused to use your brain playing victim with your miserable life while waiting to push the blame on God for your failures.

The rest of all you wrote up there is pure idiocy and don't need no response. Go learn about Science properly before you come to spew half of what you don't understand.

You don't understand history. You don't even know your Science but you slowpoke is trying to position as some sort of God critic. There are several black inventors who invented stuff just that as a collective race we have not been upping our development. Go read some books and quit your illinformed work of being an arm chair God critic.

Even the Evolution subject you are trying to act as if you know anything about that subject matter. When I start pointing out all the illogicy of it. You won't be able to respond.

All these Nairaland Arm chair God critics that have not even read enough to understand any subject except what you sick lots read of some online articles.

You're comparing an al- mighty God to a mere teacher whose powers are limited? Is God's power limited?

Go ahead and point out how illogical evolution is.

But don't forget to point out ridiculous it sounds for a god to have supposedly made humans from a handful of dust.

yes everything does not end in having $$$$ in your account. His contributions have helped humanity. Same with Albert Einstein: he was not rich even with his knowledge. Rarely are knowledgeable people very rich but their discoveries have helped and its still helping humanity.
Yes everything doesn't have to end in riches but its really sad for someone that great to have died almost a destitute. He was terribly used by people like Thomas Eddison (Founder of General Electric and others) who became a multi millioniare and his company and family are still reaping the wealth till today. Tesla's story is often used when teaching people the morals around "Using the wisdom, knowledge, and legwork of other people to further your own cause".

Ape-tard.

I don't even know if your iq is even up to 0.00002%.

I guess it's the effect of your evolutionary descent from a line of Chimpanzees and Baboons.

Irreligious clown.

For your info. All that "Pseudo-evolutionary Science" stuff don't work here. I guess you are mad that you met a match in a religious don who will match you be it in aggressiveness or in question for question. I am no part of the large religious individuals you half-baked online article "intellect" can impress with your gibberish.

See a question out of the numerous question hat was once asked an illogical Atheist like you and there was no answer. Try and see if you can answer some of these.

If evolution is true, then why don't trees stretch up to the stratosphere?
Scientists say that trees grow taller and taller because natural selection forces them to compete for light with other trees. However, they have supposedly had hundreds of millions of years to evolve, but the tallest tree in the world is a mere 370 feet tall


Explain floods on Mars with out the Great Flood of the Bible
If Noah’s flood didn’t happen then how do explain the evidence of a great flood on Mars?


Why no bodies?
If humanity was roughly a million people living at one time. If the human race is 150,000 years old like you maintain that means there have been 150,000,000,000 who lived before the current era. If each corpse takes up 3 by 6 feet then that means the remains of human ancestors cover 1350 billion square feet of the earth! Why are we not buried under the remains of 150 billion people?

Where did you get that the human race is 150,000 years old? Bless your cotton socks.
Black people alone are older than that.

So Every human is buried in the ground? grin

Why is the story of a great world wide flood similar to the epic of Gilgamesh?

Why didn't ALL cultures around the world at the time have a record of this great flood happening?

If God made us from dirt why is there still dirt?

So Every human is buried in the ground? grin

Why is the story of a great world wide flood similar to the epic of Gilgamesh? . I am so contradictory that I ask a question below but above here I still ask why the stories are similar when this should confirm to my stupid brain that this confirms that this event actually if the Bible story of this is found also in another culture. I am that daft.

Why didn't ALL cultures around the world at the time have a record of this great flood happening?
Although, like I said I am a nonentity whose highest education is the article I read online so I don't know that there are other cultures aside the Bible that had record of the flood like the ancient Mesopotamia; best known from the Gilgamesh Epic (Standard Babylonian version, c. 1100 B.C.E.) and the Atrahasis Epic (Old Babylonian, c. 1700 B.C.E.)

If God made us from dirt why is there still dirt?

I am a 1st-Class Zombie for the dead white evolutionist who came with a theory of evolution that today evidences puts so many holes in his narrative. To think he was formerly influenced by a Christian apologist, Williams Paley before he became a fool like me.

- As long as there are people calling themselves “Black People”, development will always elope the People. They called you “Black” and called themselves “White”. Why aren’t other races reduced to mere colour code? Why didn’t the Asians accept to be called “Yellow”?

-The problem of Africans and African descendants are deep-rooted. Many of us have even made Slavery and Colonialism, an African thing due to poor education and enlightenment. But the same people are today fighting and ever willing to kill other Africans in order to keep the Colonial constructs (Countries) alive in Africa, instead of seeking for ways to create organic Nations that will prosper in peace and harmony.

-See below the meaning of Black in my dictionary and stop calling yourself “Black”. There is power in the spoken word and people view you the way you view yourself.

Circus Clown

They used the Holy Spirit.
Infact, if intelligence which is a non-visual attribute of man that has helped mankind make all these great discoveries is credited and basically the difference that makes us higher than animals then the Holy Spirit of God is responsible for all the vast intelligence as contained in the universe. Science has not been able to understand the so much complexity that comes with our universe plus the nonsense you described as "laws of Science" is In general, a scientific law is the description of an observed phenomenon. It doesn't explain why the phenomenon exists or what causes it. The explanation of a phenomenon is called a scientific theory. It is a misconception that theories turn into laws with enough research.

Anyone can be a great scientist in respective of religion or their irreligiousity or level of education. Faraday was one great scientist who didn't get too many formal education. I can bet you that if you put in at least 50% of brainpower to a cause. You are going to end up making a huge discovery. The problem is many of us don't operate this "holy spirit deposited consciousness in us to the optimum height". Intelligence has been placed in man and this is what you lots describe as Science.
All these things you are saying about the "Holy Spirit" where is the proof that such exists?

Still believing they need to pray to some white god's to come do wonders in this century.

Use your brains and see the wonders we can achieve as a people.

Too bad our long time suffering was our own doing

Africa shall be great!
Africa was already behind even before the 'white gods' were introduced. We have been backward right from the start till today and for the next 50 - 100 thousand years. If we were not backward white people won't build ships and cross the great seas to come here and catch us in our little canoes. And this generation.... Tueh

You answered another thing different from what I asked you.

I can use same logic of yours in giving you as proof of the Holy Spirit in the Psych of Man since intelligence is not a visible attribute of man and no one can deny it's existence plus the fact that there are a whole lots of other factors like a trinity of factors that determine intelligence in humans. The Brain is only 36% responsible for this non-visible very important attribute inherent in man. There are other factors like the cell i.e genetic and environmental factors also responsible for intelligence.

Basically, Science is yet to understand 100% what is responsible for this non-visible attribute in man called intelligence not to now talk of asking for proof of the very source of the whole universe: Holy Spirit. You see this is foolishness on your part as you are yet to understand the one created in you and you are seeking to under the one that created you.

How foolish are you humans and who have bewitched you?
