What is so great about the TV channel?

I don't think Nigerians are that naive. The only person they expect 'blessings' from is God.

Not a hacker. But your husband is not cheating either. Sending email is not cheating.

That only suggeststhat it was a religious nation.
Centuries have passed, the country may have changed!

Don't. otherwise: ban!

I'm sorry, but nairaland cannot condone software piracy. Not in the era of quality open source software!

Unsolicited advice is of the devil.

Interesting, !!!! so When God told Moses/Ezra/Daniel/Solomon etc to build him that Temples, God was not everywhere and able to speak to people through pastors and TV sets?? LMAO!!!!!

Moses, Ezra, and Solomon (Daniel didn't build anything) were not that different from modern day pastors. They profited enormously from their 'ministries'. Solomon, for example, enriched himself at the expense of his countrymen by increasing taxes. And he used the money to build edifices for "God" i.e. to immortalize himself. Is there Christian today who doesn't know about the "Temple Of Solomon" (not God)? That's taxpayer's money 'well' spent, eh?

of course the church has branches, but u know what, conventions are done for almost the same reason we have world cups and the country is jampacked with tourists, (at least the world cup could be decentralized)

First of all, the world cup is decentralized: at the group stages, the various group matches are played in different stadiums. It can't get more decentralized than that because teams have to be physically present in the same place in order to play a match. This won't apply to churches if the aim is to 'fellowship with God' because God is everywhere. He is, right? And he can speak to you through any pastor or even your TV set.

Secondly, the world cup is a commercial event. By using that example, are you suggesting that religious jamborees are commercial events too? if so, them we are brothers because that is exactly what i am trying to say. I'm not condemning the practice. People need entertainment and entertainers need money. That's nothing to be ashamed of. It's a win-win situation: pastor gets your money and you get to feel blessed.

Churches build large auditoriums to accommodate their members.

No. If they just wanted to accommodate their members they'd just open more branches. There would be no annual jamboree that all members must attend. They want to create big, lucrative spectacles like the Christ Embassy Crusades, RCCG Monthly Holy Ghost camp meetings, and Canaanland's Shiloh Festival.

How so? Well, people tend to be impressed by gigantic edifices. If you have a home church, you get disciples. If you have a small church, you get worshippers. if you have a gigantic edifice, you get pilgrims. Guess which group parts with money most readily? Many people who would normally pay 50 naira offering in their local church, will easily pay 500 naira for 'prosperity' if they find themselves in Canaanland during Shiloh!

The people I am addressing do not respond to niceness. They respond to: ban!

Addendum: My Husband Still Cares: We Worked It Out

Nice! These are the stories I look forward to as a forum admin.

Hmm.

I can't wash any clothes - not even mine. My head is too big to waste on washing. Solution: washing machine!

You’re right Seun, but the duty of the woman to serve the man and not the other way round.

Bush man. Open your eyes, it's the 21st century! And we have washing machines now.

I hope you remember that she is not a house-girl either when it's your turn to ask!

If he's her "last hope" then this question is moot because the husband would have no choice.

About the title: I forgive you.

What is wrong about my attitude towards women? Tell me about it. I really wanna know.

Thanks!

Whhat ISP do you use to download all these precious animes?

The governor may simply have been misinformed.

What does the value of the naira (which is appreciating) have to do with this?
Churches build large auditoriums so they can collect more money per service. Simple!
