@post a stupid question if you ask me |
I think it's important to recognize the people in our lives who have made a positive difference. I would have to say I'm a pretty motivated person, but I get it from my mom. SHe is the one that has pushed me to do my best in everything I do and to strive to be the best person I can in this world. She is my motivator and my rock in most situations. She is also not afraid to give me a little reality check when I need one. |
Can you make me a moderator? Smile4kenn |

I believe there are so many other books not listed in king James Bible because it was written to suit the political desire of the King of England( King James) |
Hello Everyone, I have been trying to imagine how a world without religion will look like. If everyone believed in God, but no religion, it would have been better. I have seen religion as a tool the rich designed and created in the past to create a wrong understanding about the society among us and deceptive teaches about eternal life. Looking into religion history, people paid a lot of money to seek salvation and to book their place in heaven. So many of today's historical religious structures were built based on sold salvation. My worries; Why would people pay tights, arms and give offerings when they know all money goes to religion leader's pocket? Why would people seek spiritual/heavenly solutions to their problems when they can work hard and solve their problems physically? Why so many rich pastors with luxurious lifestyles, when their subjects/members ruin in poverty, offer their savings as offerings and pay money to buy salvation? Why religion leaders partake in politics? Why pastors and pastors alone own their church buildings and properties when it was built by church member's offerings? Why religion contradicts itself, when they claim to worship one God? Marxism said "religion is an opaque of the masses" Religion has caused wars, conflicts and hatreds. It is preventing people from finding solutions to their problems; instead they spend years seeking spiritual solutions. I believe in God, but i don’t believe in serving him through any religion Mehn am confused. |

@stimulus Read all the posts and am sure you will get answer to your question |
The history is not fabricated. Go and look for this books and read, for now i can remember the name of the authors. American History Puritans Newworld Queen Mary Americans Manifest Destiny. I know you will be wondering while this piece of history affects America, let me give u another little history. During that period too, around the 16th century, Jamestown(still King James) in Virginia America, which is the first American colony was discovered(1607). So King James allowed anybody who wanna migrate to the newfoundland(America) to search for Gold and Silver. some English People who dont like the new religion in England which was labelled Church of England, decided to use that opportunity to migrate to Jamestown so that they can practice their religion freely and maybe start their own religion. Pentecostal church also started in this Newfoundland. |
So many years back, when people were not satisfied with the catholic religion. Then catholics give their life savings so that they can build st peter basillica( which is in Vatican City). Then catholic church was labelled with corruptions that they ask people go give their life savings to the church and heaven will be 100% asured for them. During that period too, Government powers is owned by the Church. So some people were not happy with that, because they believe with prayers you can make heaven. Queen Eliza I, then asked for a new religion which is then church of England(Today's Anglican). By that period, Anglican still worship like catholics with expensive vessels and pastors living large. When Eliza Died, King Charles I, took over, Married another wife because his wife Queen Mary refused to leave the catholic Church. When Charles Died, Mary took for for some months, Then King James took over and he secretly worshiped God through catholism. So people of England asked him to proof he is not a catholic and that he bring catholic priests secretly to his home to pray for him. King James decided decided to do something that will make them believe he is a member of Church of England. So he decided to Re-Write the bible so that they really think he is with them. Dont you think King James bible is controversial and it was written through political powers. |
According to a Good source i read, which is meant to be the truth. When God asked Adam and eve not to eat from a particular leave/vegetable. So serpent forced Eve to eat it. after she ate the leave, which is today's weed or mariguana. She was high and could see things she couldnt see before. So she gave some dope to adam and they both became forever high. THEIR EYES WERE OPEN, After that event, God knew they will still be hungry for the precious leave, so he reduced the highness in weed, thats why today when we smoke up, the highness only lasts for few hours LETS SMOKE THINGS, LETS HIGH UP |
Religion is always confusing and not straight. Science is the truth, science can prove the begining of the world and will tell you how this world will end. Stop decieving yourselves that the world will end soon, The world is just an Atom that will take many millions of years more to burn up from the rays of the sun. Science has is here to stay for ever. Everything we do today is through the aid of science and life is getting better. You dont need to pray before you get a better life, Just make your money and equip and furnish your life with gadgets and your life will be easy, Science is the ONLY WAY!! |

A renowned writer, Prof. Chinua Achebe, has scored President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration low on rule of law and war against corruption. Achebe made the remark in a statement in New York, United States, a copy of which was made available to our correspondent on Monday. Achebe, who stated that Obasanjo was hypocritical in the battle against corruption, it described the war as “a myth” to deceive the people and the international community. He said, “President Olusegun Obasanjo has taken Nigeria as low as it has ever gone. This will surprise the foreign ‘friends’ of Nigeria who may believe the myth that Obasanjo has been fighting to end corruption in the country and to bring democracy to its citizens. Nigerians know better. ”President Obasanjo has had the opportunity to rule Nigeria for three years (1976-79) as a military dictator and later for two terms of eight years as a retired general/civilian (1999-2007). “People don‘t remember what Obasanjo did in his first civilian incarnation. His second coming, however, was a different matter. He unfolded a gigantic scheme for staying in power beyond his tenure. He set up agencies with long titles like the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission; the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission; and the Independent National Electoral Commission. “It soon became clear, however, that these devices were not intended to curb the crimes they enumerated but to go after people who disagree with the President, especially on his desire to extend his tenure.” Achebe buttressed his point by citing the abduction of the Anambra State Governor, Dr. Chris Ngige, by ”a criminal gang” with the assistance of the police in 2003, as an act portraying the lawlessness of the Obasanjo administration. He lamented that because Ngige broke away from the so-called godfathers who tried to hijack the state from him and siphon its revenue, Obasanjo refused to give him any support. Achebe said, “Perhaps the strangest of these events took place in my own state, Anambra, where a governor was kidnapped by a criminal gang who claimed that they had ‘fixed’ the election and earned the right to receive the state budgetary allocation. “Whatever the merit of this bizarre story, the governor refused to turn over the allocation to these thieves and began to spend it on building roads and bridges which nobody had done in decades. “He began to pay pension to retired civil servants who had not been paid in years. Anambra State was transformed overnight. Nowhere else in Nigeria had such a change happened. Governor Ngige became the people‘s governor. ”One would have thought that our anti-corruption President, Chief Obasanjo, would have embraced Governor Ngige as a fellow fighter against corruption. But no. The fellows demanding the state revenue were Obasanjo‘s friends who in anger set about burning down and destroying state property while the police stood at a distance watching.” The popular writer also accused Obasanjo of planning to ensure that his stooge emerged the victor in the forthcoming governorship election in the state. He said, “As Nigeria gets ready for the election of governors, Anambra State is in a quandary. President Obasanjo‘s hatchet man for the elections is determined that only one candidate will be allowed to run in the state and has gone ahead to disqualify everybody else so that the President‘s favourite man will be alone in the field. “If this plan goes through, it will amount to nothing less than the disenfranchisement of the people of Anambra State.” Achebe, however, congratulated the nation‘s judiciary for its truth against “executive tyranny.” “I must congratulate the judiciary on the tough battle many of its members are waging for the soul of Nigeria,” he said. Meanwhile, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media, Mrs. Oluremi Oyo, said, ”The setting up of the EFCC and the ICPC was a decision that came from a deep sense of responsibility by the President to eradicate corruption from our land and reposition our country in the comity of nations. “What the President did was exactly what Nigerians wanted. And I do not believe that anyone will quarrel with that. Don‘t forget that the international community is also greatly impressed with the gains we have made in our anti-corruption effort. “President Obasanjo has kept faith with the Nigerian people. No matter the criticism, he will keep doing good things for his fatherland and humanity in general. “He has no reason to witchhunt anyone. The President does not even have the mien of someone who witchhunts. He also does not need any institution to fight anyone. All those that have or are being investigated by the EFCC and the ICPC truly deserve to be so treated. There is no sacred cow.” On the disqualification of other governorship candidates in Anambra, Oyo said, ”It is not for us to say how many governorship candidates there are in Anambra State. ”It is for INEC to say. But I am sure that it is easy to put a lie to any claim that the President compelled INEC to disqualify some candidates. Nothing can be farther from the truth.” |
