A prostitute was also elected a legislator in Ebonyi state.
That one even ran a business making millions of dollars (obviously for a white person or they would never have released her) and created wealth

Wow, this is a rascally outcome. The state needs to reconsider, only people who are capable of building legitimate businesses not clear gold diggers without even regard for the so called feminism should have public offices

But they said, western education is Haram and that Mohammed could not read or write. So, what are they looking for in AI or is Islam full of hypocrites?
There are hypocrites in every religion, has nothing to do with religion.

jaephoenix:
In all this waffling and faffing,you still haven't dropped a shred of evidence. No use arguing with you
No use indeed, it's only out of compassion I respond to you. You're asking about 'shred' of evidence (how arrogant) when a few comments away you described a naming ceremony and birth certificate done with just a few witnesses (something that can be forged) as enough supporting evidence for your name; yet there's a catechism of the church approved and accepted by over a billion people worldwide (more than any single country in the world) with a single definition of God, and recorded lives of saints throughout history. If you can accept a birth stamp from a few people as evidence for your name, but cannot accept a similar token from a billion people, you have already judged yourself.

jaephoenix:
I have evidence of my name. There's a birth cert issued when i was born. There's witnesses to my naming ceremony. And people call me that name.
So provide evidence of your god creating the universe. Also,your claim can be echoed by many religions about their gods creating the universe, yet zero evidence
Lol, you're clearly not understanding. There's a difference between atheism, anti-theism and agnosticism. Speaking as if you're obsessed about my concept of the origin of the universe or how my description of the transcendent source is more accurate than others does not do you any service even in the worst case of being an antitheist. None of my comments is suggesting it's possible for a subset of beings that came from a much higher transcendent source to fully describe the source when they have troubles defining what is already in front of them. Some people grow up and reject the names their parents gave them - is that not the craziest thing? You reject something that is real (in your words that there's proof of)
Christianity Etc › Re: Dear Atheists by skydancer: 1:46pm On Jul 22
jaephoenix:
You have a way of weaving and dodging when asked a question. Again,what is your evidence your god is real? Using big words or sounding profound wont derail this thread
And you keep reading without understanding and keep asking the wrong questions. If you don't understand that your name is real yet your only evidence to it is a claim, or that you can dream but cannot prove your dream to anyone, what evidence or claim or explanation can you then have about a transcendent being who created the entire universe, it's such a silly ask once you see it.
Christianity Etc › Re: Dear Atheists by skydancer: 8:14am On Jul 22
jaephoenix:
And what is your evidence that this source is Jesus?
What is your evidence that your name is your name? Because that's what your mama and papa called you abi?

God may go by a thousand names and even those thousand names may not be able to accurately describe Him (and rightly so because if it was possible, then it would not be God, yet there's one name above all names)
Christianity Etc › Re: Dear Atheists by skydancer: 8:13am On Jul 22
LordReed:
The problem is there is no difference between your claim and those of the ancient Greeks who believed in a different set of gods as being responsible or any of the thousands of beliefs out there. None of you have unequivocal evidence.
Seeing they do not see, hearing they do not hear. There's no problem at all here, just something you already know. The entire thread is about cosmic fine tuning and your lofty goal to nail down the transcendent entity behind it in the name of 'scientific' discovery is as elusive as a dream. You can imagine it but you can never hold it.
Christianity Etc › Re: Dear Atheists by skydancer: 1:16am On Jul 22
This entire old thread is about cosmic finetuning. Every atheist will die without ever knowing how it came to be and live in denial of the possibility that the beauty of the universe has a transcendent source that could be Jesus and this is completely okay.

folake4u:
Oh great! This is a well detailed explanation. Many thanks for this.

Lol 😂 I know right. Better to be scared than sorry cos Lagos flood is something else.

My question further is, what happens to an electric vehicle when it stops abruptly on the road and there's no charging station ⛽ nearby?
Does it have like an inverter or electric battery whatsoever that can be used? Can a full EV be used for long distances, like inter-state travels?

I'm asking because I remember when Nigerians were really crazy about CNG. I think the hype is also dwindling pretty fast as well.

I've been seeing these notable brands, BYD and Carloha Nigeria. What is your preference?

Sorry for my many questions. 😄
Think about when the first phones started coming, before then the only thing people were worried about in phones was the strength of the signal because there were not many masts. But over time, masts were everywhere and the next innovation was now the smart phone and how long the battery could last, soon that was no longer a big deal and now the biggest issue to worry about is the screen in case of accidental falls. Very soon I'm pretty sure it'll be easy to charge them with Solar and people may open solar charging stations where you can even swap batteries like POS if they become popular. What often turns out to become a worry in these innovations is never what people expect. In the case of EVs, it's not yet clear what it will be yet because pretty soon there'll be charging stations everywhere if they continue making better cars than fuel cars - which is almost inevitable. Everyone wants a smartphone and EVs are obviously the future of smart cars. I haven't seen anything that suggests that they will be less durable in the long term except in the same way that you would not use an iphone for over 5 years (it will simply be outdated by then). So they may lose value over time because there are newer versions but same will happen to older american cars as these new cars flood the market.

As far as brand is concerned, the main thing to check is the car rating online/user reviews. BYD is a leader in China like Toyota but that doesn't mean they can hoard innovation like America. As far as the car is sold in Europe/has a branch there, it has to pass safety features.

folake4u:
Full EV is better? I thought Hybrid was better, just in case.

My colleague has a full electric vehicle and she dare not enter water when it's flooded, she's scared. 😅
Yes full EV is better because less parts to maintain than normal fuel system (think about how much you service a generator vs when you're using inverter/batteries). Hybrid is sometimes the worst because it's combining both the mechanical system + EV system but the technology is very mature with some Chinese brands. And yes her approach is great, better to be scared than sorry.
Car Talk › Re: What Are Your Experiences Owning A Chinese Car In Nigeria by skydancer: 7:50pm On Jul 20
From reports it seems most of them are better in resisting flooding/water than the American equivalents. Also it's better to go for full EV, in 5 years time, there'll be swappable batteries everywhere

Business › Re: IMF Discloses Naira's True Value Against USD As Nigerian Currency Strengthens by skydancer: 10:51am On Jun 22
mmsen:
You decrease import dependence by increasing domestic production.

In order to increase domestic production you MUST have constant, affordable electricity.

Have they done that?
By the government I mean CBN, the CBN can only use what it has, it's not their responsibility to construct power plants. It's a cheap sink or swim strategy. If you make the exports lucrative enough, domestic production will become highly attractive.
One of the things that have always shielded Nigeria from economic crisis is smart CBN governors.. If we were putting people like Gumi there, Na only smoke and charcoal for remain in Nigeria by now
Business › Re: IMF Discloses Naira's True Value Against USD As Nigerian Currency Strengthens by skydancer: 9:04am On Jun 22
The real issue here is that imports have to be discouraged. What the government is doing is strategically calculated to strengthen local industry and improve exports but it's coming at a cost

Romance › Re: How Do I Break My Masturbation And Brothel Addiction? by skydancer: 11:30pm On Apr 28
You're probably reacting to something in your lifestyle. Instead of drinking alcohol, try drinking tea that calm your nervous system or tea that reduce your libido. You can even put in a bottle when going to work just in case.

Praying earnestly and giving alms is also extremely important because it's so easy for evil to cage one inside masturbation.
Any money that you feel like spending on drinking next time, please find a beggar on the road and dash them, it will work wonders for you.

Sinkara:
Please help me
I can't seem to concentrate
I masturbate everyday
And if I get small money, I go to brothel, have sex with more than 3 girls and still go home and masturbate
I guess alcohol is my major problem because I tend to make these brothel decisions when I'm drunk
Working in the brewery doesn't help me, I have access to alcohol a lot
So I have made a decision going forward to avoid alcohol
If I do that, my brothel addiction will reduce a lot
But for masturbation, it's really hard to go 3 days without masturbating
I don't know how I can tackle that

I find her actions incredibly childish, because she knew well before the wedding that she didn’t want to marry him, but she waited until the last minute to make that known. I think she wasted many people’s precious time and resources.
If you don't know your fiance well enough to know she could disappear on the wedding day, is there any point entering the marriage? Same person you called quits with before and came back
