see this quote from a Yoruba man.

Hi Everybody, My name is Micheal (back home i'm called Ishola). I have stayed in New York city for over 5 years now . Before then I was in Jamaica for 12 years.

The first 28 years of my life was one of extreme shyness and seclussion!, Why ? - Because I had 6 tribal marks on my face, 3 on each side. :trek

Today however, the story is diffrent. I had plastic sugery 2 years ago and Voila, my face is all smooth and fresh now !.

In case you are wondering about my sex, I am a very active MALE . My current hobbies are online shopping and travelling.

So Arnold start saving up
There's help if you need it rather than get angry.
You need knowledge and that's what I'm providing

HCH3COO:
Damn!!!! You can count how many Yoruba guys you dated? You truly are a disgusting tribalist. _{just kidding}

abeg decent girls don't date every living man on campus.
mind yourself

Gamine:
@ Queen

[b]i wont date a guy with huge/extremely noticeable tribal marks.[/b]i mean, you just don't see that around these days, Thank God!


my mum has tribal marks on both her cheeks
but they are horizontal and not too noticeable

i do feel somehow ryt now for teasing a guy in my sec sch
for having number 11 on his face, even though he was a prince
i said no one would date him.
i guess right now, he must hv dated enoff girls. . . .

That's the type I'm referring to.
Let me see if I can find apicture on the net

Arnold1:
Good response. Queenisha just brought this topic up (again) due to her disgust for yorubas.

She is a lowlife tribalist. Pay her no attention.

and yet my first 2 boyfriends on campus were Yoruba boys amidst a sea of Igbo boys
I picked Gbolahan then Ade.

I wonder where they are today

_{back to topic}

HCH3COO:
Honestly, yes, I can date a chick with tribal marks.

Oh you modified your answer.
Do you have people with tribal marks in your family ?
Is that why they don't bother you as long as the person is agood person?

HCH3COO:

why the lips closed.
I'm doing a study.
help me
If you saw a beautiful girl walking down the street and you used Okada topursue and catch up with her
Then you said,hello omoge and she turned around and you saw tribal marks
Will you pick race or get to know her as you had intended

timmfikk:
i think you need to fast for 40 days and 40 night, then temptation will come, and the temptation is another single mom with 8 kids,

Yepa!!
that one na community

Gamine:
one of my cousins was given a huge mark on her left cheek.

i still don't know why, because this happened when i went to boarding school.

She had been living with us w/out a mark.

my grannie said smthing about her being too naughty

Anyways the effect right now will be extremely minute

because this girl has grown up to be a real beauty.

if she wants to surgically graft it, she can but it may make no difference.


i actually know one white pesin wey dey obsessed with tribal marks

would you date a man with tribal marks?

Texcee:
This is the part that is most saddening I swear.

me too.
Oya back to tribal marks
Where you teased as a child?

HCH3COO:
This thread again

Yes dear,have you had a chic with large tribal marks or will you?

Do you think we don't know that Texcee and arnold are the same person?
back to topic.
Arnold can you tell us more of your marks please?

look arnold,if you spam this thread again
I'll report you to the moderator.
Infact I'll do it now.
be warned
If you have deep tribal marks that bother and chase chics away you just say so and I'll sympathize instead of having your undies all up in a bunch.

@ poster,they are single mothers
You are a[b] single [/b] man
so what's the problem?

tpia:
In fact, this is the news i read today on my cell phone:

These are churches in AMERICA, one of the richest countries in the world.

@ gamine, point out what you are calling lies, in anything I have said here, so i can explain it to you better.


See, this is why that thread shouldnt have been closed.

There's still so much more to be said.

And what makes you think these Churches you're criticising are not empowering their members on financial freedom ?
Many churches even in Nigeria have schools,day care,restaurants.
Crown financial is a Christian owned andbased financial group that holds seminars in Churches.

The Bible is a complete book on life and living.
It's not enoughto criticise one thing based on a story and neglect other good work done by the church.
The drug addicts set free,the wayward husband delivered,families put together again,help to the poor and needy.

This jet will have air hostesses,pilots,mechanics,control people,engineers e.t.c.
It will give people jobs.

Hannibal:
Daddy and Mummy??
What does that entail, Playa Pataki(PP)??

Tufia
I knew that pataki was rotten right from infancy
playing mommy and daddy.
I didn't even know I had a private part till 11.

Gamine:
Sir, im not Judging anyone.

like i said before i was "wondering"


I'm not against your opinion

But im against you telling lies for nothing.

Cant Christians have nice things?
Yes i said that because, if Glo buys a jet, people wont say nothing.
isnt it the money of the masses that they would use to buy it.

Even if i think 20m is an awful lot of money, buying this jet may be of utmost need.

there are those that think not.
There are people who think Christians should be allergic to fancy cars and luxurious living since there are poor people around needing help.
Nonsense.
Have they even opened the Bible talk less of reading and meditating on the word?

So practising sectarianism, genocide, and the like are akin to a Church using it's funds to buy a jet for transportation and spreading the gospel ?

Or is it Adeboye that made people jobless and hungry?
Remember the woman that poured the box of alabaster oil on Jesu's feet.
What did people say?
They chastized the woman for wasting such precious oil but what did Jesus say?
The poor you'll have with you always,what did woman did was necessary and expedient at this time.

If it's necessary that the church acquires a jet for the work of God,so be it.
You are not under any obligation to contribute to them

When Paul Crouch was starting TBN, I'm sure there were those who felt that money should have been spent serving soups for the poor.Today that singular venture is in territories where you and I could never reach.
Even in areas where preaching the gospel could mean beheadings.TBN is there.

Let's not be quick to judge.
There is a time and place for everything.

tpia:
I did not say you did.

The thread is about the argument gonig on about whether it is morally and ethically right for a pastor to purchase a $20 million jet given the state of Nigeria and Nigerians.

What does the state of Nigeria have to do with what a pastor does and does not do in his Church?
Is Nigeria governed by the church?

I have never been a member of RCCG.
Have only worshipped as a guest about twice in one of their chapters here in the US.
I love my pastor,I see him as my spiritual head in the Church and I listen to his counsel and advise that doesn't mean I worship him.
I believe that God has given him authority over me in the Church and I respect him and his wife.

No I don't have any in mind really.

tpia:
Giving your pastor the dedication you should give to God, is worship.

agreed but what proof do you have that this is what goes on in RCCG.
Jesus of Oyingbo and the others you mention called themselves Messiahs and saviours and demanded worship.
What proof do you have that this is what obtains here?
Does loving and respecting one's pastor translate to worship?

Any thing your pastor tells you that runs contrary to the Bible is wrong.
That is the standard.

yes o
do folks even know the definition of worship?
let alone have any iota oif proof that this man of God is being adored ?

debosky:
olodo them ask you to sing sk8tr Boi abi talk about your childhood crush?

@ topic

it was in primary school, I think her name was Kemi or something. . . . unfortunately, the day i got close enough to talk to her, I discovered she had B.O. and all my romantic thoughts were shattered.

Hey yaaaaa
poor girl.
I'm sure she's grown up and all cleaned up now.

Chat2MeBac:
Not necessarily true, Most of them were educated girls, from great homes with excellent jobs, I do agree with you that low or no self esteem played a
major role. One thing I have learnt in life is that low self esteem is a respector of no one, Has nothing to do with your social class at all.  

I just don't understand men, One day, maybe in my next life, I would want to come back as a man so i can get into their pea brain to see and experience all that goes on there,

Are you telling there were girls lined up behind a man's house,e ducated girls with good well paying jobs lined up and waiting for a turn with Mr Lennox each one knowing what the other was waiting for?
Sounds incredible
Are girls in Nigeria that cheap now?
What exactly did Mr lennox have that people were standing in a queue to experience?
I[b] can understand if he ejaculated karats of gold and diamond [/b]
Ordinary man with "yekini" that uncountable millions have
what was his special circumstance?

HCH3COO:
OMG! This is about to be one of those threads

Remind what that your name means in Organic chemistry.
It's been a long way from Chem 121

eldee:
Mr Lenoxx is the Playa's Playa, the man's man . . .
If he was a dog . . . then what of 'em women? BITCHES!!!

They were girls with low self esteem,maybe sexually exploited and perhaps poor too.
Not all but most.

Chat2MeBac:
Tell me about it, I grew up with 5 brothers, and only 1 was a saint, The other 4, all dogs, I just couldnt understand why the girl stood for their nonsense, ,

One time Mr. Lennox had a line outside my mom's back door, As soon as one exit, he shouted 'NEXT" and the odes went in, Thank God my mother was and still is a praying woman, She used to pray for us all night NOT to fall in the hands of men like them,

What I want to know is who are these girls that let themselves be treated this way?
What did their parents teach/not teach them ?
The women also have a huge part of the blame here

she said her childhood crush was a cousin.
That's normal for kids.
As long as it started and ended as a crush

Chat2MeBac:
I don't think she is aware of his calls to me, but I am sure she knows about his "bed-hopping' ways.  The thing is when they were first started dating, soon after she returned from doing her Masters in NC, he introduced me to her as his "cousin", I had no problem,because as I said both of the families are very close.  But I know he has ulterior motives. I even heard he was at UWI in TNT, while she was in a delivery room in NC, When my mom confronted him, his excuse was, He had assays to complete, See me see wahala ooo,

Ah tings like this mek me fraid de aisle business, contrary to popular belief here, had more than one opportunities too, I chickened out oo,

Men can be dogs
woof woof!!

Chat2MeBac:
Abomination!!

@topic
My childhood crush was the son of one of my dad's colleagues, Man I had it bad for that guy. But the dude said I was a "little girl", Well Karma did come back. By the time I got to Secondary school, with my bust and hips in tow, he was all over me like bubble bees, But by then, I was just NOT into him.

He's married today, but still calls periodically to inform of (according to him), what might have been, Que las ti ma

Tufiakwa!
does his wife know?
