Dis naija eh... So na Buhari make us not to qualify for the next one.

striktlymi:
Hmmm...


You just gave me a completely different perspective to this.

I agree with you that culture, especially as it relates to societal pressures, has a lot to do with my observations but going by your thoughts on the matter, it is still possible for someone with a similar cultural background as he to be unhappy if given the same opportunities as he has.

Maybe you didnt really get me.... I pointed that out in my first paragraph where I said that "it depends on individual, culture and responsibility.

It varies among pple and probably culture, then responsibilty... There are pple who will be in his financial level, but arent happy with the situation even though they dont spend much. There are others whose responsibilities have put a sad eyes in their faces, to the extent that even if they rich, the responsilities they have wont wide away the sad eyes.

Then, in terms of culture, there are probably a very high percentage of pple that fall under this category frm the northern part of this country than the south. Mostly because there culture/way of life is kinda easy on them. Therefore, they live a happy life even when having little or no income.

Today, there were two major incident. The killing of about 12pple in France by unknwn gun men and the killing of about 30pple in Yemen by a suicide bomber. The whole world leaders, from Europe to Arab nations to the US, all of them condemed the shootings in France. Even the international media made the news their "breaking news" all through today, even as am typing this.
But the incident in Yemen was sidelined. Nobody has condemed the attack, no media is showing what followed up after the attack. Aljazeera, France24, CNN, name them. All just focused on France even though the death toll in Yemen is greater. Does it mean that it was cows and goats that were killed in Yemen. Just thinking.

So much for the religion of peace

RIP to the dead...

Free and fair or not... There is no way gmb is winning this election.

SalC:
Yes he will most definitely meet such occasions, what he's saying is that he won't own a rosary or pray it on his own, he seems to like a lot of catholic practices but doesn't like the idea of praying the rosary, so he is concern if he converts without saying the rosary, will that make him any less Catholic as almost all the Catholics he knows very well seems to have this fondness for saying the rosary.

Not saying the rosary wont make him any less a catholic... Am pretty sure that there are so many catholics that dont say the rosary, not because they dont want to, but probably because its not the type of prayer he/she is used to. So for me, I will tell him its no big deal if he decide not to say it. But am pretty sure that by the time he becomes a full and better catholic, he will get to love the rosary.

SalC:
Question

Someone said to me, "I want to become a Catholic but I don't want to pray the rosary, will that make me an incomplete Catholic?"

What will be your answer if a non-catholic inquire such from you?
Is there any official stance of the church as regards such a person or his case?

Well, I have never come across any teaching that says "praying the rosary is compulsory for all catholics"... Though as a catholic, you cant run away frm it as you may one day be part of a program where the rosary has to be said. So for me, I will try and let him knw the importance and benefit of the rosary, but he is free to decide whether to say it or not.

Sanction Mbaka and watch how the Catholic church in the southeast falls apart. Since they said Mbaka spoke for himself,why sanction him?

Bunch of hypocrites!!

The bolded... Not possible... Even if he is sanctioned, the only thing that might shake is his adoration ministry. Outside that, the church still continues... The only thing am against here is that let him not turn his adoration ground into a place of political talks. Not quite long, PEJ was there and Mbaka was showering praises to her and her husband... So wetin come happen.

I see no reason for all these up rising. Any citizen of Nigeria has the right to support/condem any presidential aspirant. Since Mbaka is speaking as a person and not for the catholic church, let them leave him alone. Not that am supporting MOGs mixing politics with religion.

Rich4god where did you hide Kamsified?

kennynelcon:
Bro, What's d name of the coy that said you were successful, but didn't call u back

Lancrox Food and Beverages.

Thanks striktlymi

The case you described is an example of an implicit oath. Implicit oaths aren't wrong if done right. What's important here is that one does not lose sight of the creator when using the created as the object of the oath taken.

How do I know when its done right/wrong... And from what I could hear that day, they man was swearing with the sand and not God.

SalC:
This one be like say e pass me o,
Italo, Ubenedictus, Striktlymi babestell, Jnrbayano please help out, I want to know too.

Hmmm... Almighty Salc calling for help

God... When will we stop hearing about Boko Haram... This is getting too much.

Not only that. Most southerners running away from the north cos of election cant vote in the south cos they registered in the north.

jnrbayano:
Check page 282

You no fit ask for number...

Okpabana... What a name...
*edited*

I like the way NN names their ships... Using "words" from different Nigerian languages. Sound interesting...
NNS Aradu comes to mind.

I what to know what is the church's stand on swearing. I was in my villa for the xmas, I happened to witness where a man was asked to swear with the sand of his sisters grave, that he has no hand in the death of the sister. A priest was there and he gave the man the go ahead to do the swearing. So, what the church's stand on this issue...


CC: Italo, Ubenedictuc, babestell, Salc, stryk and co...

hurricaneChris:
Wishing us all a wonderful year!

Good evening

Same to you my guy...

jnrbayano:
I did, albeit subtly.

To visit someone one requires an address and a contact point. I had/have none.

So you see?

Not that you have none... You didnt ask for it...

jnrbayano:
I felt if I'd contacted her, it may have been possible......

You never answer my question...?

jnrbayano:
Happy new year to you.

Pls what does the bold means?

Was abt asking the same thing...

So did you later visit MG...?

New year greetings from Rich4God

chikk:
