Na post per thread is not enough sef!
They always ban me all the time, that’s why u do not see one million per post.
There is no NL rule limiting comments to a certain number. So, hold ur peace.
As for reserving tears, I think that advice should go to fellow mumus of yours on NL, always parroting Israeli LIES to justify IDF genocide and terrorists attacks against Palestinians and Lebanon.
Israel’s days are numbered

It is obtainable in the United States of America too. Example is Trump cookies baked specifically for his political campaign. That's just an example. There so many examples, another is U.K Prime minister. We learnt all these things from them. So, why are they sharing food, perhaps its too much hunger in their country.

"Vote buying is a complex issue with a long history in the US. While certain forms are clear-cut, others are more nuanced and require careful legal analysis".

After Biden won Trump. Donald Trump and his supporters never stopped shouting that it was rigged. 🤗

Why will a white man believe that a fellow white will rig election?! Imagine lol in the 21 century America.

Whether “force” or “entity”; I still don’t know what you’re talking about.

The same method of acquiring knowledge that resulted in the discovery will be the same method that answers the question. Maybe when they acquire enough knowledge about dark matter and dark energy astronomy present an idea.

Which “some” have described this force or energy as intelligent? Do these “some” have any expertise in astronomy. I doubt it.

Sleeping in the bath

Reminds me of when I was in love with a dude while sharing a room with my sis. I would carry my pillow and off to the bath so I could talk and giggle into the night without waking her up. That time tey tey.....I thought I invented the sleeping in the bath thing

Oh really?! So Judaism that they borrowed from is original?

You didn’t explain anything nor did you mention any “authentic” or “original spiritual paths”. Whether you consider them “false” or “authentic”, at the end of the day, they are all fantastic.

Of course there is congruence. Since it’s all made up, some will naturally agree with each other while others disagree.

Claims like the above are simply jargon unless you explain these “forces in nature” and how these people “align themselves through certain ritual practices”.
I’m aware of a few personifications of nature represented in religion and if I were to give an example, I wouldn’t write vaguely like you did.

I’ve undertaken enough investigation to know that Judaism or ART isn’t less fantastic than the others. There is no hierarchy of validity in religion so your ridiculous veneration of judaism is absurd.

The Catholic happen to be the most successful of these ideas and my use of them is because of the well know pomp and pageantry. They are the perfect example of pretending that the mundane is profound. I could use the rabbinate and their Midrash as another example of such behavior since you value Judaism so much

It’s all bullshit! That’s the point. The so called imitation secrets do not matter

It doesn’t matter what they do secretly or if they confirm or deny. I don’t care what the initiates of Judaism believe when I know their claims are fantastic. And if they also acknowledge “secretly” that their claims are fanciful, then the only people they are fooling would be the laity and other gullible people.

So the initiates are conmen? Yea?

But no one claims Snow White, Macbeth, Harry Potter are real. No one creates and sustains conflict using them as support neither so they are poor comparisons.

But the ideas in Judaism such as the “promised land” nonsense can be taken literally (like the apartheid state does) or “symbolically” like the OP claims he does.

You asked why did the other poster reference Peter Obi instead of the others and I told you why.

Obi currently talks the most of the losing candidates by far, it makes sense that people talk about him the most currently and not the others.

There is nothing wrong with it. Bubu and President Tinubu are currently not opposition, what's your point?

Funny people, are some.

I once had a cousin stay with me in my one bed and living room in UK, and gave up my bed for him because he had stinky shoes and snored. Whenever I cooked, he'd ask me if I'd eaten my portion and all the rest was his. I got a phone bill of over £200, and on checking the numbers called found it was him calling his friend in US, which he denied, stupidly not knowing about itemised bills.

One day, I went to market, bought fish and Guinness and went home to cook rice, and as I was eating my cousin came home.

"Ah, good", he said, "like you knew I was hungry. Have you taken enough for yourself?"

"No", said I, "I surely haven't. I plan to eat it all by myself and drink all my Guinness myself too. And when I'm done, I'd like you to sit down so we can talk".

After eating all I could and rubbing my belly while he sat and watched me, I asked him if someone had told him my family owes his family, like if the dowry my father paid was not enough or something (his is my maternal side), and they've told him to come collect from me.

"Oh", said he, "I thought government gave you all for free being as you are citizen".

"Seriously?" I asked, angry and livid. "Like you don't see me doing night shifts 5 days a week to buy the food you been eating and pay the rent so a roof is over your head?"

We sat down and negotiated he pay half rent, buy his own food and never ever touch my phone again without my permission.

My younger sister joined us a couple of months later, and he sat down with her to share the house bills, and when ma and my other sisters joined us much later he did the same with them all.

Funny that by then, I had given up my bed and the sofa and was sleeping in the bath.

babasolution:


You are just exhibiting your bitter soul,

Your talking Benin,Benin that was already a shadow of itself by the time of the British invasions, Benin had destroyed itself in civil war.

Christianity came with freedom was living which also encouraged corruption, truly there might have been less evil under traditional religion but it was with immense fear which was many times abused.

You people just talk like Africa was Uhuru prior to the British or Europeans.

There was a lot of oppression by those that wielded power, things were not as rosy in Africa as people like you paint.

In my village( I use my village as a typical case study) there were scattering of peoples due to wicked oppressive brutal kings,traditional religion aided their power, were they could sacrifice humans at will

What about the fact that oba esigie accepted planting of churches in benin to get access to guns.

Or the itsheriki kings accepting a form of Christianity to have increased access to Portuguese trade.

Read history from a neutral perspective you'll get to see the true picture.

Which resources did the British seize,when African rulers were falling over themselves to trade with the British.

Why did the British not impose Christianity on the Islamic north? Don't tell me they didn't have resources. ( they traded kola,nuts etc with the British).

Cocoa trade was introduced by the British and Yoruba leaders were falling over themselves to trade with the British in cocoa and it made many of them rich.

The missionaries were the ones that spread Christianity, what the British force did was to protect the missionaries and prevent any attack or persecution of Christians by local leaders.

If African leaders( prior to Christianity) refused to trade with the British they won't have been able to invade AFRICA.African leaders opened their territory to the British unlike Japan.in my village, the leaders refused to entertain entry to the British,eventually it was locals that brought Christianity and education.

Dahomey favoured selling slaves even when they were compelled to stop.Dahomey invaded Abeokuta to capture SLAVES ( this was a traditional worshipping state)

African leaders over eagerness to trade with the Europeans facilitated the eventual fall of African kingdoms.

Ajayi crowther was a big force that spread Christianity in the southern Nigeria as well as others,check the history of most villages it was returned slaves from Sierra Leone that spread Christianity in their villages.

In my village it was a trader that brought Christianity through trying to learn to read and write.

Christianity was never imposed on southern Nigeria, however it was protected and privileged. Most people accepted Christianity as young people, it was a trendy thing in that era,unlike the Muslim states were Islam was imposed through the rulers or by force.

Note some areas in Edo were Islam was allowed to thrive,why did the British not force the people to be Christians?

Why are people in kogi Muslims?

There was no record of forced conversion in NIGERIA. Many people willingly converted because of the opportunity it provided with education and prospect of working a more lucrative job than ordinary laborious farming.

You are just a bitter soul.

Africa failed itself prior to Christianity

germaphobe:
clinicality doesn't have anything to do with position on the pitch. Even when we had more traditional forward in Nketiah and a more proven striker in Jesus, Odegaard and Trossard were and is better finishers than them. Auba was good but he also misses chances like 2 or 3 and still scores 2 or 1 because the creativity was there. Ozil knew where to place the ball in front of goal when he needs to score than Auba, one is a AM while the other is a S. If we score 3 to 4 goals per match without a pure 9, why would I need one when we can use that resources to chanel in other areas? (This is my main argument).

NSK4U:


Mind the trash you post. But I understand the old propaganda and agenda.

Is there any region in Nigeria as peaceful as the south East?
At least the security report proves the east as the safest region in Nigeria, so where's the gossip of no peace in the east coming from if not the usual beer parlour talk mtchewww

Jodera:

Didn't want to talk about this initially but you brought it up.

Getting a striker (esp like Osimhen or Gyokeres) is the differences between us not getting all 15points.

Someone like Gyokeres/Osimhen would have converted that Havertz chance against Brighton and against Man City ystdy, we would have been more deadly winning aerial balls during the 2nd half something Havertz was really dominated on. Osimhen especially would have been a menace against those defenders ystdy with his endless running through channels and aerial duels. I'm even certain there would have been a Torres against Barca deja Vu s
But yeah, Arteta deserves he flowers the way he set us up both times when we were a man down. All credits to him and the players

OneCandleAway:


Nobody wants to end up brain dead in the ring or shaking like Ali. Even MMA fighters that take punishment all over the body tend to have trauma in the brain not to talk of boxing where 90% of blows are directed to the head.

I believe that's also what Nganou did during his last fight. Fall quick and take the cash.

Topman7:


You are reacting like a brainless SLAVE.

Using your purported ''village example'' to explain the reason the entire southern Nigeria turned christian.

What ''freed slaves'' preached christianity in Africa?

You are a born LIAR.

Christianity did not spread in Africa because it was ''preached'' by anybody.

The colonialists invaded your territory, massacred your ancestors, and seized your resources. ACCESS to those resources became dependent on your ancestors receiving a 'western education' for which they had to relinquish their religion at the doorstep and get baptised in missionary schools. IT WAS CONVERSION BY ECONOMIC BLACKMAIL. COERCED CONVERSION.

Benin Kingdom under its traditional religion for example was a functional place with NO CRIME.

THEIR TRADITIONAL EDO RELIGION WAS THE STATE RELIGION.

The visiting Portuguese and Dutch said that the people in Benin built no front doors to their houses because it was unheard of for somebody to enter another person's house to steal..

According to the UK Guardian newspaper talking about 1500s Benin kingdom:

''Benin City was also one of the first cities to have a semblance of street lighting. Huge metal lamps, many feet high, were built and placed around the city, especially near the king’s palace. Fuelled by palm oil, their burning wicks were lit at night to provide illumination for traffic to and from the palace.

When the Portuguese first “discovered” the city in 1485, they were stunned to find this vast kingdom made of hundreds of interlocked cities and villages in the middle of the African jungle. They called it the “Great City of Benin”.... Indeed, they classified Benin City as one of the most beautiful and best planned cities in the world.

In 1691, the Portuguese ship captain Lourenco Pinto observed: “Great Benin, where the king resides, is larger than Lisbon; all the streets run straight and as far as the eye can see. The houses are large, especially that of the king, which is richly decorated and has fine columns. The city is wealthy and industrious. It is so well governed that theft is unknown and the people live in such security that they have no doors to their houses.”

In contrast, London at the same time is described by Bruce Holsinger, professor of English at the University of Virginia, as being a city of “thievery, prostitution, murder, bribery and a thriving black market made the medieval city ripe for exploitation by those with a skill for the quick blade or picking a pocket”.

https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2016/mar/18/story-of-cities-5-benin-city-edo-nigeria-mighty-medieval-capital-lost-without-trace

Benin was invaded in 1897 and the people massacred, and the Oba exiled.

Today, Benin is christian.

Armed robbery and kidnapping, prostitution and fraud are what Benin is known for today. You DARE NOT build a house in Benin today without a big gate and barbed wire fencing.

COURTESY OF CHRISTIANITY.

THEY TURNED CHRISTIAN NOT BECAUSE THERE WAS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THEIR TRADITIONAL RELIGION.

But because they had NO CHOICE but to become christian due to their military conquest, and subsequent colonial demonisation of their religion, and the requirement that they DROP their traditional religion to be admitted into the new colonial schools.

So you can lie to yourself as much as you want in order to remain a SLAVE worshiping the gods of people who invaded, burned down your cities, and murdered and raped your ancestors.

Disgusting person.

henndukwe18:
In reference to this post https://www.nairaland.com/7222565/first-kiss my relationship has been moving so smoothly, everyday is love day, butterflies have now turned to beautiful birds singing in my belly, a single glance at her picture puts me in a deep imagination dt keeps me smiling for some minutes, i imagine how happy we wl be together as couples, such a sensational moment, i neva knew she has the same thing in mind until d last night we met before she travelled to start sch at enugu university.

In that night, as we were having oir normal romantic moment, at tje peak of the romance, she asked me if we were going to marry, i was surprised, then i said yes we wl, bt wen the time comes.

We re just in our first year in sch, her uncle handles her sch stuffs while i take care of mine and also get little support from family, especially my mom.

My mom has always wanted me to b in sch, she wants d best for me bt financial burdens kept delaying me. I wanted to hustle enough money before i wil think of going to sch bt my mom forced me to start ds yr, i told ha i wasnt prepared bt she insisted i start sch dt they wil support me, i agreed n started, first semester was survival, i quit my job to start sch since my mom wanted me to register as a morning student, i hv exhausted all the money on my first semester bt my grades are critically bad, in all the things we do in sch, my participations in sch is 20%, why?, because of money, everything we do in sch involves money, am very brilliant bt all the dull brains in sch that are being supported by their rich dads are beta than me, after our first semester exam i knew it was over for me, i started loosing interest in sch bt my mom kept pushing me forward and motivating me, nothing will make ha happy than to see me become a graduate.

During these struggles, i was stl communicating with my girl friend, i shud have gone for ha matric at enugu bt i couldnt because of money, i hv disappointed her in many ways over the things i know i can handle if i was working, she is very understanding, bt deep down in me, i feel bad about my situation. I was stl reasoning wt she told me abt marriage and i dnt want to loose ha.

At the ending of my second semester, ha first semester was over, we were so excited to see each oda, we met at our normal spot, at the sight of me, she ran towards me with an exciting smile on ha face n hugged me so tight, she is more beautiful n curvy than wen she left for sch, she now has a little figure 8 shape (i onve imagimed dt), she is more attractive now, her eyes n smile were amazing, she was even more excited to see me than i was, we were cuddling, jisting, laughing, smiling n kissing like mad, such a romantic moment.

In the middle of our romance, she held my hands while staring me directly in the eyes and asked me the question again, she asked me if we re going to marry, this time, she had a pleading look on her face, she is a very emotional person and neva hides ha feelings from me, with dt look i knew she was very serious about it, she is probably going crazy abt me, i told ha yes we wl bt we have to finish our education first before starting life together, she said she was afraid of loosing me, i told ha she wont loose me and am also afraid of loosing ha, we just need to wait for d right time, she asked me till wen, i asked ha if she wanted to have a baby and b going to sch with it, she said no dt she just wants us to get engaged, as an assurance dt we will be together forever, i told ha i would b there for ha, she looked annoyed bt i hv a way of getting imto ha, she is emotional and has a soft heart, i used that as an advantage to sweet talk ha out of it before we continued our romance.

My academics now are even worst than last semester due to lack of money and we are currently taking exam, with the way things re going, am not just going to have a lot of carry overs, i am going to repeat my 100 level, it will b a big shame that someone as brilliant as i am is repeating first yr, my efforts re no longer enough, After my girlfriend went home dt night, i was thinking throughout dt night, she has clouded my mind, now i want ha so bad, i dnt want to loose ha, she is a human being and has a limit, if i continue like ds, someone is probably going to take over from me, she is ready to build with me bt if i dnt do anything about it or make any effort in building our relationship, it is only a matter of time before she ends it, and dt is wen she cant take it any longer.

With all these things crumbling on me, i dnt think i can have my gf and be schooling at the same time, i need to make a very hard decision;

1. To continue struggling with ny studies

Very easy na.

Ebuka go come beginning of the show and say ‘Ocee and Ozee you have been evicted’

Then middle of show, the next pair of housemates to leave are ‘Nelly and Anita’.

Then end of show, he go appear again and say ‘Topher please leave the house. You have been evicted’.

Finito!

■ How do I explain in clear terms to your kind that as long as you're not breaking the law you've not committed an offense.
■ In the west men undergo surgery to grow breasts and become women. To many of us here in Africa, it's stupidity. But to them they feel transgenders deserve as much rights as normal people. Lots of ladies here in Nigeria do BBL and breasts implants. A handful of them have died in the process due to infection. Lots of people engage in hundreds of stupid adventures in the west, of which countless have died. And you who happen to live abroad cannot call them stupid cos that would be a violation of their rights. But you're always very quick to call your fellow African stupid. talk about slave mentality.

Kobojunkie:
How do I explain this in a language that would make sense to your kind? 🙄

Anything less than common sense is ALWAYS foolishness! Wading around in dirty muddy water where one could contract infections or sickness is ALWAYS foolishness no matter which way you try to splice and dice it. That is why it is to be avoided, no matter what nation you find yourself in or happen to live in.
