Can't decide what to do with this info.
Do you need approval to do it again, would you have felt validated if the guy didn't split? Or you want to ruin your relationship by informing your bf?

Deal with it. You learnt the hard way that you can't hold a liquor.

Ashley86400:
Using my case as an example . . .
Religion is just one of the schematic inventions made by man to control the minds of other men. My lecturer once told my class during my Unilag days that the beginning the problems we face in religion started from the famous line -You shall have no other God except me. Human beings generally aren't hostile to each other, but that famous line has given people the perfect excuse to belittle and condemn / kill and maim a person all for the fact that he doesn't share religious beliefs and doctrines with you. . .

I remember visiting my dad as a child (my parents aren't together) and while we were walking on the road ,my dad who is very religious would point at muslims in their mosques and say "Look at them, all grinding their faces in the dust,they're all going to hell". . .this used to make me sad with my childish mind that my muslim friends in my class would go to hell . . .other times my father would point at white-garment-church goers passing in front of the house and say they would also go to hell because they were "false" christians. .this also made me sad because my so much loved grandmother and many of my aunts who all go to "C and S" white garment church would end up in hell. . .watching all the condescending manners and jealousy church members even in the same church had for each other . .always trying to out-do each other. .watching people sing,pray,cry and give offerings in church , leave , then break every commandments in the Bible all week only to come back the next Sunday to sing,pray,cry and give offering over and over again was tiring. . .and all these only made me wonder what the point of religion was?

This is where pastors get their hold on their members-they will tell you to question your religion and it's teachings and doctrines is a sin. But it isn't, human beings have a naturally curious mind and it is only human to want to know the meaning and origin of something. .but they never give you that chance just as my pastor never gave me a chance when I asked him questions,telling me it was the devil putting questions in my mind to challenge God's words.

After I got into Uni , I started my search on religion, digging for answers to the questions I had been asking myself all these years and after my research I realized my mind had been idle and dogmatic for years. It's different for everyone but from my own deductions I believe there is a God . .but this God is unknown and probably unknowable. .because our minds as humans are not capable or wired to know who God is . So the truth is,we can't know God or communicate with God because we were never meant to.

Religion is just an attempt to know God and since attempts are never the same ,thus,religion varies from place to place. If you were born in turkey,you would most likely be a Muslim, calling christians "infidels" and if you were born in Italy ,you would most likely be a Catholic looking down on other christians. But it still doesn't matter ,no matter your attempt,you can't know who God is.
This belief is called Agnosticism (so I would call myself an agnostic) and it is opposed to Atheism, which doesn't believe in any God or divine being.

Think - it's not illegal yet. Use your brain. Don't let any body think for you or shove down two thousand year old doctrines down your throat. .cause these doctrines have even been abandoned by the people who introduced them to us at the point of whips and chains. Even they know religion does not give room for improvement as it is still the same recycled junk over and over again. .what they say to us in church and mosques is what they said to 200 years ago in church. .but it still isn't stopping tsunamis,earthquakes,plagues and wars from happening, is it?
QED
Couldn't have said it better.

Omooba77:
I have been having running thoughts; majority of people apart from Muslims fighting Christianity today were rasied by Christian parents. Many of the the so called athiests were once vibrant members. Many of lewd singers were once choristers. Please what is happening, my heart burns!!!
What's happening is simply intellectual globalization. We were raised and exposed to either Xtianity or Islam at home and in our schools.
The information age, internet precisely has exposed us to the myriad of religions across the world, removing the veil of sanctity we placed on what we were raised to believe.

Plus the easily contestable and contradictory "fables" of the "holy books" contradicts and conflicts with intellect.
Besides, perhaps a sign from God like the good ol days would easily validate these claims but we know that's never going to happen.

Our parents found their religious paths, the onus is on us as adults to find ours.

bantudra:
thats why i said we should return to military rule....this fee dee fee nonesense will cost us another court case that we citizens must pay......democracy is rubbish....jonathan shouldnt have become president to start with....
Military sure pass. Democracy has failed Nigeria.
The failure and damage of democracy can only be repaired by the military.

We're only deceiving ourselves with this pseudo democracy cos it's the same military personnel ruling, they only hung their uniforms for the "Agbada" and are exploiting the stupidity and leniency of democracy to rob the nation blind.

Fact is even the military is unpredictable but at least there's zero tolerance for these democratic charade especially with the way the legislators and judiciary are holding the polity to ransom.
PoliticsRe: Why I Walked Out On Jonathan – Sheriff by pressplay411(m): 7:11am On Apr 08, 2017
Our politicians are shameless, disloyal Janus-Faced old bags, every one of them.
Their disloyalty should be punished.

The major issue is our parties don't even have their unique ideals they stand for otherwise some one who has supported PDP should not be able to just jump to APC overnight.

Music/RadioRe: Nigerians React To Drake Not Showing Up in Wizkid's "Come Closer" Video by pressplay411(m): 6:16am On Apr 08, 2017
adorablepepple:
Ignorant numskull you stink and you sound so depressed. Here you are in Nigeria refusing to accept who you are. When they sing whack Music you all still take it to heart like it's our Lord's prayer. When will you all come out from this slavery called "following western life" and learn to appreciate what comes out of here. Wannabe get a life of your own and live it. Tell that to wizkid too
Cos the West is thinking futuristic, you (Nigerians) on the other hand are still thinking tribalistic. So while their busy developing better ideas and making better music, we're busy tearing each other apart.

Nothing wrong in having exotic taste and interests and appreciating their music, even you're guilty otherwise you should shun technology altogether. So don't try to trash foreign music or fans.
Wizkid has dominated African charts, he's pushing his music across to a bigger market, hence the int'l collabos, it's not a symptom of low self esteem but good ol' AMBITION.

Point is, every one is entitled to their interests and no one should attack you cos you don't know Drake, odd as it may be.

Let's go there
Hard to decide.
1 looks like he threw the baby, giving the direction the baby is facing.
1 also looks ready to catch the baby judging by his reserved, ready for the catch posture as if it's his baby and he's definitely not taking chances of it falling.

But simply judging by the baby's direction, 1 threw the baby.
Christianity EtcRe: 2 Zimbabwean Female "Witches" Caught Red-handed Totally Unclad (Video) by pressplay411(m): 4:38am On Apr 07, 2017
Before anyone defends this "witch", think of how much evil she's done, possible lives she's ruined.

Not saying I believe she's in fact a witch, but she's definitely not normal. Don't think this is staged.
Would have preferred to hear her confessions and her story. People should do research and see how to transform them, not burn/kill suspected witches.
Christianity EtcRe: "There Are No Atheists In Foxholes" How True Is That? by pressplay411(m): 4:33am On Apr 07, 2017
Seun:
Atheists don't turn to God when they are in mortal trouble. They tend to say things like "shit", "Bleep", "damn it", "we are so screwed".
They might also soil their pants. However, in such dire situations, something as ineffective as prayer would scarcely cross their minds.
We understand Atheists don't believe in a God or gods. But what do you believe in personally Seun.

The reward for academic excellence is a still secured future (all things being equal). #Focus.
