I'm not trying to create a like for like comparism here tho...

I'm just saying... it shouldn't be termed so "morally wrong".. and lead to fanatic homophobia

Ranchhoddas:
Animals are the standard now?
Oh God.
Animals murder each other all the time, therefore it is natural for humans to murder each other. Murder is observed in nature.

You are being overscrupulous. There is no way the meaning was weakened here. "True" already means faultless. "Pure" is already superfluous. You meaning is well taken. Stop being pedantic.

You have just described the relationship of two best friends. . I am something of a prude. I feel disgusted typing this. Don't make do it again.
I know there is no such portion.

There are stories of people who have been cured. Go figure.


Unnatural:Contrary to the ordinary course of
nature; abnormal


Straight from Google.

The course of nature is to procreate via sex. Gay people can't.
I know what you want to do. Change "unnatural" to "murder" in your question and you have your answer.

Their wanting to get in the sack is repulsive. They should seek treatment if possible.
Oga... animals have sex for non procreational reasons....as humans do

so sex is not strictly for --- it's mating season fellas(animals in play here)
let's go have some evolutional offsprings

And one of such animals 'The White American Ibis' showed signs of homosexual activity due to "environmental pollutant methylmercury" - culled from Wikipedia

Again, many of us are not actively bashing homosexuals and indeed interact positively with them in our daily lives, however we DO NOT have to agree that this life style is suitable for us as it pertains to our culture and families. But, if people want to make it part of their life style , that is also perfectly fine. Just DON'T try to FORCE EVERYONE to accept it , many do not want to. Its a free world , do your thing and allow others to do their thing.
I totally agree with you on the force aspect...

but above all stop condemning your fellow humans...

their choice is their choice is their choice...

so long as it has no "effect" on you..

It seems you enjoy talking before giving thought to anything . How can any right-thinking person say such ? Common sense should tell you that homosexuality is something non-existent in nature(just look at animals and see if they practice such !). Did your mother mate with her kind to bring you into this world? Answer
Oga,, like the op said... do your research...
homosexuality is prevalent among animals...

even bisexuality...

m not an advocate of gayis.m tho...

m just saying...

do your research before branding your fellow human "demon"

Music/RadioRe: Reasons Why Some Upcoming Artiste Will Forever Remain Upcoming by raphieMontella: 5:56am On Mar 20, 2018
srazorblade:
With my little experience in the industry, let's say about 8yrs wink what I'm about to write here is the truth, nothing but the truth.

1) Most upcoming artiste do not make proper use of their social media handle

As an upcoming artiste, your social media account is one of the easiest ways of communicating with your fans. You need to put content on it everyday. If you are going to the toilet, take a picture. If you are going to the bar, do a little video. If you are bouyant enough, give away something tangible

2) Most upcoming artiste do not attend shows

If you are an upcoming artiste and you are not attending shows, you will forever remain upcoming (Not a curse though but harsh reality). I mean, get off that your lazy bed, attach yourself to a DJ, beg him to tag along when he has shows and do your thing at his shows (Simple). Another thing you could do is also to buy tickets to shows (regular). Find your way back stage, before they start the show proper, beg them to allow you do your thing. Record label owners, promoters are listening and if they can see the confidence in you and how the crowd accept your music, my brother, congratulations.

3) Not creating a Niche for yourself in the industry

As an upcoming artiste, you need to stop copying other people's style of music. Stop copying other people's beat, stop copying other people's sound. Create your own style, create your own pattern. Stand out

4) Bad Mastering, Bad mixing of your song. This is also a contributing factor. Who will play your music when the whole production is whack! There are so many upcoming artiste out there with good lyrical content but their production is poor and this in return makes the artiste sound local. No Dj would jam your song on radio if the production is poor. Work with different music producers. The same producer that created the beat and recorded your voice should not be the same producer that will do the final mastering of your songs. They are dedicated sound engineers and professionals that their job is just to mix and master (look for them).


5) Poor lyrical content, bad concept, bad voicing Imagine a reggae singer trying to sing blues? The concept from the onset is not proper. What you have to do is to look for your vocal strength and work on it. If you can sing blues very well, my brother, you are not needed in rap. Do your thing, express yourself lyrically. Sing about things your face, talk about your emotions. Sing about everything around you.

6) Not wanting to freestyle
Free styling is your selling point. At times people, fans want to hear you sing without musical instruments. Freestyle your songs, record a Crystal clear video of your freestyle. Upload on Instagram, YouTube, Facebook etc

7) Shoot a music video
This is one of the most easiest way to promote your music. I literally don't listen to radio but I watch TV. The only time I listen to radio is when my friends are having their shows on radio and I have to tune in to listen for feedbacks. Music video helps put a face to your music. If your looks are great, it will attract the opposite sex a lot but if you have pot belle like me, my brother, Hit the Gym. With a music shot in the right format, resolution and concept, it will get Airplays on TV. There are so many satellite TV stations now and all you need do is get your video to them. Once you are getting airplays on TV, getting your songs played on radio will be very easy. You don't have to cut your neck for that. And one of the things music video will do for you is when you go to shows. People, fans will easily identify you. Even when you are on stage singing, they would be telling themselves that they have seen this guy on TV. (And again take note that you are going to do a lot of free shows. The moment you blow, free shows stops)

And as for me the writer, I am doing my own free show right now cool I'm offering 5 Free Music video production slots to 5 upcoming artiste. T & C applies..

Written by @srazorblade for publication on Nairaland. For Publication outside Nairaland, credits should be given to the Author and Nairaland links should be posted accordingly.

I am interested in the slot sir...

1 Corinthians 15:5-8 (NLT)
5 He was seen by Peter and then by the Twelve. 6 After that, he was seen by more than 500 of his followers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have died. 7 Then he was seen by James and later by all the apostles. 8 Last of all, as though I had been born at the wrong time, I also saw him.


It’s obvious you have not Read the book of acts . Hence you don’t know who Paul is Ki
perhaps you cannot understand that he's saying he saw Jesus in a vision, likewise the claims of the writers of the Apocrypha.

I said, Paul, neither knew nor met Jesus like his apostles did.
Christianity EtcRe: Jesus Practiced Jewish Religion by raphieMontella: 7:10pm On Dec 07, 2017
petra1:
Jewish tradition is mostly of men not of christ .

Mark 7:13 (KJV)
13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.


If you believe in christ , kindly get yourself acquainted. With the epistles . Jesus gave Paul his doctrine.


Galatians 1:11-12 (KJV)
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. 12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Paul, a man who neither met Christ nor knew Christ. his works are no truer than the Apocrypha.


you still avoid the fact that Christ followed Jewish traditions and supported it. only condemned hypocrisy and over reliance on tradition.
Christianity EtcRe: Jesus Practiced Jewish Religion by raphieMontella: 6:21pm On Dec 07, 2017
