Why can't you read and understand something so simple?

You talked for it somewhere in your comments...
...
Buh my love for her is NATURAL, and vise-versa
Good!

So if your own parent has this immense natural love for you, where is your own immense natural love your own child?

explain the bolded..
You say you owe your mother a debt--to repay her love. I'm now asking you that if love should be based on what a person has done for you first, then what reason does your mother have for loving you since you obviously did not do anything for her first? The point is that she loved you for other reasons. love is not based on repayment of debts.

Exactly, but, don't you think I should pay dept before charityhuh

pay my mom before giving daughter what she will pay me sometimehuhhuh
Your love model is flawed, being based on a sense of "do me, i do you". That is not love.

What did you ever do for your mother to love you the way you say she did?

Whatever, the thing to remember is, if I am the one sinking there, [b]She will never help something or someone and ignore her son to die before her, She can even decide to die if she know truly you will live only if she sacrifice Her soul.

but, do you think gf or wife can do the same? while some daughters nowadays kill their parents?[/b]
If your mother can do that for you, doesn't that clue you in to your own responsibility towards your offspring?
Education › Re: Can An Economics Graduate Do MBA In Marketing by SmartyPants(m): 8:07pm On Feb 24, 2021
An MBA is a professional qualification rather than an academic one. What that means is that your prior course of study is not relevant in most cases. Engineers, lawyers, etc can do most MBA m programs, so yes an Economics graduate should easily be able to do an MBA in marketing.

Next time, simply take about 5 different universities and check their admission criteria.

Romance › Re: After I Took A Loan For Her, She Blocked My Number by SmartyPants(m): 10:04pm On Feb 22, 2021
This looks like a fake story.

A loan so big that a teacher would spend 5 years paying back. Who is going to give anyone a loan that large? Who would take out a loan that large on behalf of another? And then seriously not know what to do to trace their so-called fiancee? You don' know where she lives, her family, her friends?
Politics › Re: Rafiu Kolawole: Sunday Igboho Is A Rascal, Not Fit To Fight Yoruba Battle by SmartyPants(m): 3:32pm On Feb 22, 2021
Already, some Muslims are seeing it as ‘They are killing Muslims.’ Even Yoruba Muslims. You may have noticed that they are not talking. Because the Quran says you Muslims are all brothers. Allah says he has bind you with one rope

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Would You Attend This Type Of Interview? by SmartyPants(m): 2:12pm On Feb 22, 2021
ThePlainTruth:
But what if they just want to use you to gain the knowledge they need on how to solve the challenges they have and then ask the contractor to leave? This new experience will be worse than the first one. They might even use the interview to gain this knowledge they need for the work without offering the contract.
So you won't go and get paid just because you don't want to share knowledge because you are angry? They will still find someone to do it and you will lose out.

Not again but I saw somewhere earlier today when soldiers were jubilating for locating shakeu farm in sambisa Forest. Problem with our soldiers they will wait for them to attack instead of taking the fight to them. I think it's cowardice
Attack them where? Don' you understand that book haram does not have conventional bases as the military does? They hide in the forest and use guerilla tactics meaning you can't just get up and say you want to go and visit them.
Politics › Re: Geofrey Onyeama: Benin Republic Ready To Be Nigeria’s ‘37th State’ by SmartyPants(m): 10:54am On Feb 20, 2021
EzzyCarter:
This Benin president needs a brain check. You want Benin to be the 37th Nigerian state? When most Nigerians want out of the unholy matrimony called Nigeria? This is similar to Bangladesh saying they want to merge with Pakistan ...This must be an expensive joke grin
There is no similarity. Bangladesh, India and Pakistan used to be one country and split up after a bitter civil war. Beninoise, Togolese, and Nigeriens, Chadians, and Some Camerounians all have closer affinity with certain parts of Nigeria.

Ideally, these parts should split and join their respective external families. In essence, the real Nigeria is the geographical Niger Delta area stretching from Edo down to Bayelsa, Rivers, and back up to Delta.

Just like that, you sat down and came up several layers of conjecture without a single fact to support them, just to justify putting a negative spin to the development. huh

I went to farm this morning to do some clearing/fatigue in preparation for next farming season came across this snake hiding. Thank God I was able to kill the deadly creature. Please, what's the name of this green snake?
That is a harmless garter/garden snake that actually helps you by eating rodents around the farm.

Be there claiming deadly snake.

Juliearth:
While your thought is valid, I will still have to maintain my stand point. This is an anonymous platform and as such, whatever you share here cannot be linked to you in any way. Need I also say that the left hand/right hand ideology is quite misunderstood. Both hands are linked to your body. In other words, the left hand signifies family, friends, associates and so on and not anonymous people on an anonymous platform.
No. The import of the right hand-left hand analogy is that the two hands are obviously so close, so in keeping what you have done for others to yourself, it must be so closely guarded that not even those who are close to you should know. This is as opposed to the idea that only those close to you should not know. Further, the reason is simply so that you do not bask in earthly applause, which you would do should you receive the praises of anonymous strangers.

I have done few which I will consider as huge risk on my side but the most dangerous one was the girl God used me and my friend to rescue from rapists.
Though I have gave brief narration of the scenario here before but the scene always reoccur in my head anytime anyone ask question like this.

The incident is just like soldiers trying to rescue kidnapped victim from kidnappers or terrorists.

Whoever supported the judge action such thing will happen to his/her daughter so also this same judge, I pray such will happen to his daughter and all his generation yet unborn
I pray we will get it right someday in this country
We can't get it right with people like you who wish rape on innocents. Rape for any cause is rape.

Yankee101:
No monetary compensation, nothing?

Why not say time served, why pardon?

Where's the justice?
Those are the words of the journalist. Judges have no power to pardon in the strict sense. What he has done is actually a judgment per incuriam (incorrect) as once convicted of a felony one must be sentenced. In other situations, the judge may suspend the sentence but in this case, he simply did not sentence him. On appeal, this is sure to be overturned.

Naturally people shie away from difficult courses so in most countries of the liberal world, the arts courses are already full and overflowing. This is what creates the need to absorb STEM graduates from other countries.

You clam down (just put it at the back of your mind that he would pay, and one day an opportunity would present itself). He should not even see you as a threat...

Since no crime happened, you can't do anything legally. Just ask her to be more careful.
Attempted m rape is a crime.

The news was not reported right, maybe they were just travellers..

Everyone has freedom of movement, but if 80 herdsmen were found in a truck with arms heading to the abattoir in Lagos, how much room was left for the cows in the truck if it already had 80 occupants?...

If the cows were heading to the abattoir, why does it need 80 escorts?...
Plus 25 motorcycles grin

JudgeKronos:
About 3.6 billion women on this planet....
why kill yourself because of one
grin
Lol. Logically, only approximately 100 million of those are immediately available in feasible geographical proximity, assuming that Nigeria has 50:50 male to female ratio.

He won't leave where he is and start searching all over the country for a girl. Realistically, that ties him down to his immediate social circle. Including maybe social media, his access to all females in total won't exceed 300. For someone who does not go to Church unless you are a student or celebrity you can reduce that number to 75. But let's assume you are a student.

Of that 300, 100 are minors, 50 are aged, 120 may be of age but married or attached. Leaving about 30 single and available.

Of these 30, 10 will be considered below the OP's standard most likely, remaining 20. Of these 20, 15 may consider themselves above the OP's standard. Leaving 5.

Despite the fact that the world is full of females, at any point in time the average man does not have more than 5 options. I'm being generous.

Sorry to burst your bubble @ Kelblaq

cheesy
