Soyinka said, "Balarabe is sadly but I hope not tragically wrong. I invoke the tragic dimension here because the making of tragedy, especially for nations, often begins when fears are mistaken or promoted as facts, and governments either by themselves, or together with interest groups, are enticed by fears into embarking on precipitate, irrational, and irreversible acts....when fears are mistaken or promoted as facts..... @capslocked what is your view on that statement “Such acts turn out, in the end, to be based on nothing but fears, sometimes generated by guilt over past injustices, such as inequitable dealing. That is the basis of tragedy, towards which nations are propelled by a partial, or wrongful reading of socio-political realities and- history. I would like to see this nation avoid such a blunder. So, I am certain, would Balarabe Musa. |

Noneroone:why not. Why bring out issues out of nothing. Afterall I'm living witness one of my lecturers back in uni is an Igbo Christian married from the core north a Muslim wife. How did he manage to pull through it. He's an intellectual man and religion and tribe isn't a barrier to him as long as they have mutual understanding. Noneroone:I pains me when right men in their right senses abide to live all your life by some certain rules that doesn't pertain or relates to your current circumstance in reality in any way. In as much as I detest referencing any Bible tales because you said it that our culture and tribes differs so what as Samson or Solomon era love story has to do with today's society relationship. Either you agree or not the Bible was also influenced by the custom and culture of it era. So every man to himself. I'm not hear to convince you otherwise but at times when you are caught with some real life situations you stop living every bit of your life following some biblical patterns that doesn't relate to you. That how someone said to my lady wearing trouser not biblical for whenever reasons I don't care to know. When you come over to stay in Canada when temp is -7, but on skirt now. No one will tell you when cold reset your brain. You abide to one biblical law and and ignores the other. You even said falling in love is not biblical. Well I don't have problem with that statement but you are so good as being one sided with biblical terms. What will be your response telling you that having phone with you is not biblical. I would have responded to every bit of your write up but I got time for other important stuff. When I'm less busy I'm still coming to modify. |
Obi1kenobi:This is the best piece of word I've ever heard this week. Kudos bro. Most so called believers just accept some fairly tale stories, one sided stories written to suit and make appealing some mischievous concept to convince (deceive) the masses. Only few people I've come across who have this type of intellectual reasoning. The era I discovered humans are good at twisting words/account to favour their beliefs and interest it's was then I was beginning to become more curious of every story/event I was told from child hood. To make matter worse, you heard supposed MOG claiming *God called him prophesying false prophesies when I particularly knows he has a clue on the matter. To make matter worse the prophesy eventually never come true. Why then put *God in the picture. I sat my self down and seek useful information within my reach about any topic either documentary or histories from different sources on past and recent accounts. I became little more intellectually curious about the world I lived and this really opened my understanding. In case some people hear are ignorant about the world you live seek info from other sources aside from the one ones you already known in your religion belief. To know the mystery of the world you have to be open minded and but aside any cultural, religious belief aside. I'm sure you connect the dots yourself. The problem with most people is that they base their conclusions only from one source. You hate yourself when you later hear another version of same account enlighten what the previous source never talk about. If what I'm saying isn't clear enough. Let me give you a scenario. You're in a class of pupils and suddenly a fight burst among them. If as a teacher that doesn't have any clue on what happened stepped in at the moment and asked them what causes their fight. Without taking sides based on the pupil you love best and disregarding any personal relationships issues I believe as an intellectual teacher you listen to everyone side of the event involved. One thing is certain, every student will do give the tales to favour their own act. The ability to scrutinize their words properly, observing their countenance, posture, motive, interest and other factors makes gives a better principle to with intellectual reasoning and you know what really transpire before you came into the scene. You did this without involving *God. Well it's more of work of detective so respect one especially if he/she is well intellectual. The problem with most religious books is that they claim where directed from *God. In as much as its men that pen it down then it's is subjected to human thinking ability because the human in the first place has his understanding limit and flaws but easily covered by God said so. That why when some mystery is beyond human thinking capacity as at the era of writing, the story become twisted with *God. Be enlightened! it's for your usefulness. Read, listen to videos (YouTube is more elaborate if you use public data) Most mysteries have been trashed out just like the way magic trick have been exposed. All those stories like history before Christ Bc (10,000 downward) lots turn pillar salt( Pompeii volcanic disaster) Ancient Babylonian history before Daniel and after Roman Empire documentaries before and after Jesus birth. (both rise and fall) Egyptian history and defeat history of different language on earth, The Persian emperor documentary (rise and fall) Rise and fall of Jerusalem BC/AC The crusade defeat in Jerusalem by...Sequence of history from 1200-1945 constantino..church defeated by Arab French war with British ottoman empire First and Second World just a simple search on google/youtube. I purposely use those event as most people has a sided stories on some of the events all this are few but which ever event account you choose history has a way of linking itself because it's hard to twist history why? there's evidence that shows for it up till now. #modify |
WinningEleven:I'm laughing in tongue. You must be a comedian. Must you attach meanings to every situation without including demonic spirit of devil. Why put then in every scene. Let me ask you a a truthful question and I will appreciate reasonable comment. Can human being be responsible for this demonic attacks or how does demonic attacks initiate itself? Please enlighten me and please no offence. |
Op this are signs of the evil one. You need to be more prayerful especially before sleeping. Endeavour to read your Bible daily. Be devoted to reading the scriptures so as to grow in the spirit. All those I typed above are the usual things you want to hear and you have heard it. Is not everything we attached to spiritual or religion belief. Be principle in your dealings and let the spirit sleep. What is doing you also happens to other fellow including the evils one you claimed are behind it. From my experience it happens when you prepare to sleep or about to wake yet sleep isn't approaching or you aren't waking up soon. Before the transit of crossing into or from the dream land you feel conscious of your state but unable to control your body movement either head, leg, hand. That period is known as sleep paralysis. |

If this is actually real then it only tells us how Africans are still evolving. Evolution is in stages. The society evolves as a result of collective evolvement in individual. No doubt, the order of the day will be have srx, eat sleep, work, may have be some fun. But yet I'll never look down on them because they are humans like me. Either unfortunate or fortunately I never found myself among them. But yet some noise maker still come here ranting you want to make money. if you make the money what will you do with it. I know it doesn't pass to eat food, have srx, buy cars and house. So what even the point. Everyone deserves to be treated with fairness and justice.

At every point in time there are bound to be misunderstanding between parent and offspring and I'm a living witness. But the fact is that we still settle every misunderstanding not because of the present moment but for the best of the future. In as much as I don't know your father's side of the story but judging from yours, there is more to the story and we will gladly welcome the issue so as to know how to advise you. I believe the next person has something to say. |
He's not worthy to be called a pastor |
PerfectJUSTICE:I like those words in bolded even though I doesn't totally agree with everything you type but whatever I sense your observation and I guess you are erudite and knowledgeable enough to hold this conservation. To who it may concern. DonFreshmoney, hisgrace090, Kingdollar28, tobechi20, NyenwePHC, helinues, mrZENographer, Bruno3000, risos , First of all a there's a famous quote from Mahatma Gandhi — 'I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.' AntiChristian:I have a question for you. Can human beings be unified to have one ultimate belief. if yes how can this be achieved? thanks your contribution is highly welcomed. Maximus69:I get your point of view. Your point is that without religion human will always oppose against humanity. I don't want to use (what is right). Nevertheless, don't be biased. At least, we know that over the course of human evolution and history, human has has a physiological attachment with religion because of the fear of unknown. Every religion deals with the proper way of living in the *right way*. But the right way is only subjected to the society involved. Yes we all want to make the world a better place to live. We want to make this earth the heaven we always imagined. It's so good. There are good men who has tried to achieve this goal in the course of history. Christ, Alexander, Hitler, Mohammed, Japanese emperor, Julius Caesar, and lot more. But the problem is the best way to achieving this. This has lead to this discussion of Christianity as a religion. I quoted perfectjustic in his quote "human beings are not perfect" If we agree Christ came to restore humanity and to only way to promote such idea is to tag it with religion. Then you have only created more barriers and limitation and added to the existing problem of disbelief of religions. Even Jesus came with a good example he never created any religion. From his behaviour, manner and speech, we can tell his aim to to restore humanity in his best way he can during his era of existence (from human point of view). But yet humans are so imperfect created barrier to the legacy of Christ by labelling some set of people Christians. Mohammed in his own view saw the atrocities in his society and injustice on how the rich enjoy and humiliate the poor. He was bold enough to gather people around him to stop this unfavorable act of the society. Whatever way he went about it either peaceful or violently is not the focus of this writeup. But yet humans are so imperfect created a religion out of it. Tiring thenselves with some belief because of the decision of one man and his imperfect crew. Humans has now finally leverage on this disbelief to prey on the weak in the name of religion especially Christianity practised in Nigeria. Fake pastors performing miracles controlling the crowds. And the facts is that those who claimed to be believer worship there praising suppose man of God for fake miracle until the fake pastors finally exposed. Now they know he's fake. Those years he/she has been duping you emotionally, financially where has your inner spirit be. Don't be fool. Yet people keeps running to some human because he claimed he has some spirit that can solve your problem. Yet we never wise we keep falling Victims in the name of religion. This is why some people leverage on this act to perpetrate on other human weakness. More who claimed man of God are increasing to collecting from the masses they have impacted fear to. My brother if their is another answer to humanity it is not the religion you claimed. Human are imperfect and has done more damaged than good EbukaHades10:@ I love your sense of humor but if you continue like this remember your decision affects unborn generations just like the decision of our ancestors brought us to this discussion. but If its a joke I got it ![]() |
Some people just come here to spilt gibberish comment. Why call her weak because she took her life. Infact, you are the week one here. Only if you know the courage it take to take one life. Whatever the situation is, She is gone and your gibberish comment can't bring her back. I just hope her parents doesn't contribute to this particularly. I remembered a family friend's daughter back then in secondary school who was more sexually active and got pregnant. Her parents were pastor and own a church then. Instead of them to accept her condition and stand by her in hard times all they do is to abuse and abandon her because of they see it as shame on them. Well to avoid people finding out they brought her to stay with us. Her condition worsen only to discovered that she decided to kill herself and the baby by taking whatever drug she purchase. We were alerted and taken to the hospital before it gets late and luckily for her she survived with the baby. Yes! suicide is not the best option but instead of sympathizing for the victim let try and help one another in whatever way you can specially when you know the person is really in bad times so will avoid stories that touch. |
midnighter:Now I see you are doing this for fun . But the fact is that I never come here defending myself. Yes I'm a hypocrite! I never argue. But can I tell you this "The word "hypocrite" is like a double-edged sword" and I can as well use it against you but no cause for that anyway. Do you still have anything against me? ![]() |
midnighter:I've carefully laid down my words above and there is nothing like "criticism" here it's a matter of choice and opinion. Life is not as hard as we might think. No point taking everything personal. I could have replied back with provocative words but instead I choose to come straight and plain because if I had done so, we would only be revolving in circles like a scalar quantity that has magnitude but no direction. No need arguing backward, well except if you're doing for the fun of it ![]() |
midnighter:I never criticize any belief here neither did I come to degrade any belief. Beside my right-up didn't fit to be be called "hypocrisy" because I never hold anybody words against them. Feel free to say your opinion. That what counts |
You guys are still on this matter. Only if you could take a pill, relax and observes only then you would know that humans created this religions to control the populace. That is the major reasons why in this era there arise fake pastors, Alfas, babalowo, prophet manipulation the crowds with what they do best. I don't care about what your believes is for most of them were what you were taught and exposed to from childhood which has made you live with some certain conspiracy of fear within. Other factors that contributed to this include what you were taught and told by relatives, Imam, pastors, teachers and friends. I strongly encourage you don't be narrowly minded. If you are curious about any thing you don't have answers to, it will be wise of you to seek answer from trusted sources. Remember not just one source. By then you should have a wider knowledge about what is happening on has happened and then you can make a conclusive decision. Don't be the type that say but my pastors says or my Imam says... Unfortunately, we are in our part of the world where will have misplace priority and religions has eating deeply and has changed our psychological reasonings down the decades. Beside, Christ who you claimed to be the Messiah of the world never created any religion yet humans tags one into it. This is one of the reasons why we keeps creating limitations for ourselves because of our different believes. It's time we respect one another believes and never rub it against anyone know then barrier will be broken. The countries that are well United is not because of their believes or religion. It is their priority to keep humanity evolves in all aspect of life. The reality is that we just have to get along with one another because of benefits like connections for jobs or positions, attendance of family event, making friends so as not to being lonely. The facts is that the world doesn't have a universal truth. What is right to you is actually bad to some other people. But that doesn't make their wrong and that doesn't make yours right. Until we all get this we will be in the prison of belief, custom and whatever limits you. Have an open heart and listen to other people's opinions only then you can make the best out your existences.

midnighter:sight capnies:I'm actually getting bored of hearing this same piece of story been passed generation by generation. Why the Catholic version is different from yours, yet the Pentecostal owns differ. Well that aside. No insult please and beside no need to drag someone believe to appraise yours. I am an open minded person and I suggest you too is a knowledgeable person at least in what you believe. If you don't mind, I have some questions for you and I will love to hear your responses. Mind your your response determines the basement of this discussion. 1. The ultimate goal of believing in the "TRUTH" is to secure eternal life after death? True/False? Reasons 2. You said and I quote"Imagine a world where only the righteous live; would there be any need for padlock, guns or even house protector". And your belief highlights eternal life after death is where no disease, sickness, and other evil occurance you could think of exists. If I were to go by your believe you said only those who believe will make eternal life and such is that those who believe are righteous. clearly stated . what will those ones with eternal life be doing since I know they won't be ideal all time?. 3. If I where to go by your belief the Bible is the holy book you made reference to as a believer. And most pastors and believers will say we should follow what the Bible says. [no arguments]. Why have you so call "believes/Christians" in quote uses some part of the writings that suits them to control the populace and abandon the other verses that might go against the doctrine and yet criticize other believers/church that their doctrine is against yours? By the way why doctrine since the Bible have all what is required... References are available when requested and please no insult |
jamace:As I have said earlier I stick to my word. I don't have anything against you. I'm open minded and I don't conclude with a narrow mind. Open your mind and there won't be any reason for this. midnighter:Let me answer your question. Our main problem of human condition started from Genesis 11vs7. NKJV "Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.” Either way There must be confusion as whatsoever human being portray. It not everyone that will accept. It's a fact! The only way to curb this is to first understand one another. That will be a big task because one party has to compromise for the other. Your second question: Why do we need to get to those remote communities that don't yet know Christ? What are they missing and lacking? Yes you want to bring the Truth to the people. At least you come with a good trail and the best way to do that is trying helping the people with their pressing issues like the missionary did which was building schools, roads, provide running water etc which was a good approach. Although other religion might take it by war and violence. In as much as I still have hope for humanity I hope this get better. And yet a Christian preacher will see you and the next thing is telling you to believe or you burn in hell fire. Why the treat? You want me to believe in what you did at least first impression matters to everything. The early missionary in Nigeria has made prove. This made me quote the next author midnighter:Human has blood and water running in then and we are not perfect and we can't be. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Romans 3:10 As it is written: “None is righteous, no, not one; midnighter:James 4vs11-12 " Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor? " Before you convince other to believe at lease portray what you preach. |
midnighter:In case you don't know let me blow your mind. There are so many circumstances that are beyond our control. Decade we were born, season, family and geographical location we were born and death etc. You call it lucky but what about those that hardly will Christian missionaries get to their reach (countries/nation), or what should happen to those that cannot make their own choices by them selves not to talk about their family and cultural ideology that is against those willing to accept the "TRUTH" The truth is that the same way you are feeling lucky about the choices you made is the same way they feel pity for you for you have made wrong choice. But the problem now is that "What is the TRUTH?" |
Blakewilli:Do you think we can careless about historical foundation of any circumstances. This histories made human what we are and brought us here today. In as much as you background has more impact on you likewise historical events much about you. Know need for argument. |
Before I give mine view on this thread. Let me first clarify out some sentiments. jamace:In as much as I don't want to criticize and avoid being hypocritical I will utmost tell you that you are guilty of all of these. That a fact you might not know but I will never use it against you! |
