Take your mind off from the relationship & work on yourself more.

How does one go about working on one's self exactly? Do you mean things like furthering one's education and getting a better job?

Bolaji21:
I see whip was mentioned as bolded.
But I still don't see where it was stated that he used whips on merchants or whipped merchants

So you think he just threatened the merchants and livestock with a whip and they all ran out of the temple even though he never used the whip on any of them?

Bolaji21:
.
Kindly provide the chapter and verse of the Bible where it was recorded that Jesus whipped merchants.

John 2:13-16: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Jn+2%3A13%E2%80%9316&version=NRSV

The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 In the temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. 15 Making a whip of cords, he drove all of them out of the temple, both the sheep and the cattle. He also poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables 16 He told those who were selling the doves, “Take these things out of here! Stop making my Father’s house a marketplace!”

Chysler:
Is like it skipped most people, what really finished LF's denial of the crimes leveled against him by sansa wasn't Brans first revelation of the knife to the throat but his "I told you not to trust me"... If am not mistaken that was LF's exact words to Ned when he betrayed him to the lannisters and held the knife to his throat. With that Revelation LF knew Bran truely had a vision and there was no room for his Denial... All these came upon him suddenly and unprepared.... He had to fall on his knees and use the love appeal but was already late.

Most professional liars would have denied all the allegations. When you keep denying a crime, you can even cause the people who caught you in the act to doubt what they saw. Littlefinger was supposed to be the best liar, so he should have known that. Admitting that he murdered Lysa was his worst mistake because it cost him the support of the Vale army. I still enjoyed the scene because the actor did a great job.

Is there any where in the Bible where Christ beat up a witch or censored the beating or rejection of witches or other people who do not share the same views with you?

Jesus did not beat up witches, but he is said to have whipped merchants in the temple, so he was not totally against whipping people.

I am inclined to agree with countsparrow because a poorly socialized Rottweiler is a major liability.

Magnifico2000:
For me, the best scene of episode 7 was cersei and tyrion's private conversation. They both killed the episode with their dualogues. But im still wondering why cersei didnt kill tyrion despite his hatred for him?

If anything happened to any of Dany's crew, she would have taken Kings Landing with her dragons, dothraki, and unsullied army.

Does anyone else feel that Euron wants Dany? Between the two queens, she is younger and has dragons. Will he betray Cersei to get Dany?

I feel a bit bad about the execution of Littlefinger since he saved Sansa's life twice, and Jon. He should have been arrested and given a proper trial, in my view.

Eyah. He probably needs a chew toy.

I wish to create a meme about how ladies and queens on GOT react when their children die in their presence. Catelyn & Robb, Cersei & Joffery, Ellaria & Tyene, Dany and Viserion. It's a Stark contrast.

Magnifico2000:
Are they still underage in season 7? Sansa is 22years old now so what is ur point?

The characters are still children in the show. People will get mad if they are made to go nude. Also, since their roles cannot be recast, the actresses have the power to reject any demand for nudity.

femu:
Prices now increase daily.

maize is about 150-160 naira per kg

Bone meal about 60 naira per kg

pkc is about 50 naira per kg

Where do you get these items from?

Seunpaul01:
I think the director made a big mistake by not updating us on what happen to the unsullied at casterly Rock. Two episodes now and no update on their story.

So that they will make a dramatic entrance when the plot needs them.

NoWorries7:
Seun ... I haven't logged in with my laptop for a long time...If you can't maintain [Nairaland], sell it...

The idea that I should sell Nairaland because you haven't logged in with your laptop for a long time makes no sense to me. Care to explain?

Should we just continue on the episode thread?

This thread is now open for the discussion of episode 6, which started here after it was leaked: https://www.nairaland.com/3991891/game-thrones-season-7-episode

Hopefully the finale won't be leaked because I am tired.

GMan650:
Lol.... nice one. Don't you think The Hound is getting boring and stupid as time goes by?

Even Tyrion has become extremely stupid, since he's the one who came up with the moronic idea of kidnapping a wight to convince Cersei.

Indeed.

BlueAngel444:
I don't like religion but imagine a world where evil isn't restricted, where actions are not governed.

Restricting evil and governing actions is the job of government. If we want to reduce evil, then we need to improve our government; that's all. If people want to do evil things for selfish reasons, the only thing that will really stop them is the knowledge that they are very likely to be punished for it. Religion seems to reduce some lesser evils, but it also discourages logical thinking, which enables greater evils to continue.

UjSizzle:
Dany na man go kill you. But unlike Seun, I quite understand her absence of weeping. She just saw that what Jon was saying about the army of the dead was true.

She saw them. Yes, she lost a child/dragon, but now she understands the battle is bigger than who sits on the throne. It's a battle of life.

And she wasn't stoic like Seun seemed to have seen. When Viserion went down, we could see the look of dismay. When she was with Jon shaking her head at his apology, we could see her grief, but also the knowledge that the war is bigger than she imagined. She is a casualty now that a child is gone, but she also has a fierce determination now to kill the Night King for that same reason.

Stop making complicated excuses for an actress who cannot cry on cue and can't be bothered to fake it. How can a woman who can no longer give birth lose one of her three children and not be distraught and inconsolable and angry? She is the mother of dragons. Those 3 dragons are her life.

If the actress had cried out, wept and lashed out in anger, and shown her grief as one would expect, would you have criticized her for weeping due to the reasons you gave above? Would it have been better or worse than how she chose to react in this episode?

TheKingIsHere:
I remember when I said that Sansa wanted to take Jon's place, dem Sansa fans insulted and attacked me saying it was a lie .. Hope they are seeing it now.

Sansa is trying to take care of Winterfell. She is dealing with practical things like making sure that there will be enough grains to eat during the winter and trying to placate Jon's followers in his absence. And yes, she is prepared to lead the north if Jon doesn't return, instead of allowing her family's legacy to be destroyed completely. Arya is currently a **** with no practical skills who is getting in the way of her sister's efforts to hold the north together. Arya's relentless nonsense is making Sansa lose her head and driving her into Littlefinger's trap.

18. Jon stupidly calls dany his queen and said that he will bend a knee if he was feeling better. **Jon better not try hat nonsense o**

Well, he is responsible for the death of her dragon. It's the least he could do. Although it seemed to bother him more than it bothered her.

19. The NK brings up the dead dragon and turns him to a white walker. **show ends**

I knew that the white walkers would have to have a big breakthrough for the plot to progress, but the sheer stupidity of the plot that led to this outcome is mind boggling. If you're going to spend a lot of money to shoot a show with amazing special effects and expensive actors, why not first spend just a teeny tiny fraction of the money on making sure that key elements of the story are not embarrassingly stupid?

IamLEGEND1:
[i] Jon bleeped up that's for sure

Yes, it made no sense for him to be risk everyone's safety to kill a few more of wights out of tens of thousands. Nothing made sense this episode.

But no one could've envisioned the NK basically using dany's dragons for target practice.

Well, once he picked up the spear, we all envisioned it. Thought he was going to hit the dragon in the eye, but apparently it wasn't necessary

I guess Jon will be riding Rhaegal.

Godstraight:
lol seriously calm down,I have also noticed, but she was not originally given the role.

Ok.

Arya is also being dumb. The little murderous baby has pushed Sansa right into the arms of Littlefinger. Sansa is now forced to confide in Littlefinger because she's afraid of being spitefully exposed or murdered by her sister. Sansa is not doing anything bad by making sure that everything doesn't fall apart when Jon doesn't survive one of his regular suicide missions, but her reliance on Littlefinger is a looming problem.

Tyrion's stupid plan which Jon Snow, Dany, and many other people stupidly agreed to backfired. What a shocker. Now the NK has a dragon.

Emilia Clarke is a disappointing actress. I understand that it was difficult for them to get a good British actress who looked underaged and was willing to do casual nudity and simulated sex on camera, but they should have tried harder. Main characters should be played by very good actors. One of her "children" was executed and she could not produce a single tear. Not even fake tears. Her character was smiling at Jon Snow when he woke up, shaking her head when he was apologizing. Wtf was that? [s]She can portray 3 emotions: (1) anger (2) happiness (3) horniness. When she is required to portray other emotions like sadness or inner conflict, all she can do is stare blankly into space.[/s]

I just finished watching the leaked episode (episode 6). Having learned from my previous mistake, I have created a new thread where we can discuss the leaked episode before it's officially broadcast on Sunday evening: www.nairaland.com/3991891/game-thrones-season-7-episode
