jesusjnr2020: Spiritual blindness won't let you see clearly even though the verse you quoted clearly said, "the prophecy of this scroll" not the Bible as you want it to be, but continue deceiving yourself that you can see.
Btw, the pictures I posted were those of guy literally born mouthless, hence had never spoken a word since birth, you can search the internet about him to cure your ignorance. Even BBC did a story about him. Those are the kind of people that your selective god left out of his plan of salvation for mankind. Thank God my God is not that discriminatory so the mouthless guy can also be saved as everyone else despite his physical handicap. I am sure you are using a scroll to type now. Caveman! Your god is limited by words and unable to understand other forms of verbal expressions . |

jesusjnr2020: In otherwords, your god made salvation available to only those with mouths to confess. My God made salvation available to all men - those with and without mouths.
God forbid that I would blasphemously attribute a glaring error inspired by the flesh of a man to Him. Rev 18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll. 19 And if anyone takes words away from this scroll of prophecy, God will take away from that person any share in the tree of life and in the Holy City, which are described in this scroll. With the picture you posted, You don’t even know where your mouth is let alone have the ability of disproving the word of God |

Rany4all: There are so many flammable materials in our homes. Not having a polystyrene ceiling, I'm afraid, is not a fire safety measure. And just by the way, the polystyrene boards used in construction are usually fire retardant versions of polystyrene.
Like I said, the key is to incorporate fire safety measures in our homes, like installing fire alarm systems, smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, fire blankets, fire escape, etc.
Having a concrete ceiling, even in the kitchen does not prevent fires. Your cooker can cause fire. Your electrical appliances can cause fire. Your kitchen cabinet can catch fire. Your wooden kitchen doors are also flammable. In fact, almost everything inside our homes are flammable, so does that mean we should live in empty houses? The bottom line is that some materials are more combustible than others. It’s just like saying HIV cannot be transmitted by kissing, would you kiss a HIV carrier? |

jesusjnr2020: You're still beating about the bush trying to dodge the glaring fault with your belief. If you believe it's necessary for a sinner to confess with their mouths to be saved, it means your god's salvation was not provided for all man but only those with mouths.
My God's salvation is for all men, so even those without mouths can be saved, because it doesn't require confession with their mouths to be saved as my God looks at the hearts of man not their mouths.
A mortal man made a erroneous saying inspired of his flesh and the spiritually blind automatically take it to be the Word of God, just because it's in the Bible even though it clearly contradicts the Character and Will of God for all men. Even when they're corrected, they keep arguing blindly instead of taking correction. Continue taking that the error of man as the Word of God and still expect God to back you up. With the mouth confession is made unto salvation Roman 10 : 10. Let me make my position very clear to you. I have no power or knowledge to add or remove any word from the Bible. Whatever the Bible says, I believe. God forbids I cherry pick his words. |

OnMyHonor: I think there is a little "mix-up" in what @Saydfact was trying to say.
"mm" is an SI Unit of measurement of Length, just like Kg is for Mass, Seconds is for Time, Kelvin is for temperature, Ampere for Current, Candela for Luminance, etc.
SI Unit stands for "Standards International" Unit.
So, it is used by all Countries, as an International Standard for Measurements but Countries also have their own unique standards of Measurement, which are also acceptable and widely used in those Countries. I understand what he is saying very well. I was even told the same in school in Nigeria. But the reality on ground is a little different Here in the US , if you go to hospital for physical exam, your height will be written most times in Centimeters. Something like 160cm height. |

saydfact: Well... Its not professional to have a dimension of 458 x 1189.
And mm isn't used because of precision. It's a British standard used only by British and those they colonised.
Eg America and China don't use it, do we then say they don't have precise measurements? Since I have been using micrometer screw gauge here in the US , it has always been in mm. |

If you have never driven to Calabar, you won’t understand how insensitive and wasteful this project is. There is an existing road from calabar to Ikot ekpene which is a death trap now. It takes almost 3-4 hour to drive the whole distance. A journey that used to be 45 mins maximum. In fact, In the early 80s that road , a federal road was well maintained and nick named “uyo by Air” because of how cars were speeding on that road. Why do they need another expensive road when the old one cannot even be repaired. From the Ikot ekpene end to Aba was another 20 mins., Then to Owerri before you drive straight to Onitsha. In all it took just 3- 4 hours then. Onitsha to Lagos through Benin express is less than 6 hour We have not forgotten about the much awaited super highway from Benue through Ogoja to Calabar which is yet to see the light of the day . This was Buharis campaign promise to the people of Cross River State. Till today nothing. And here we go again. If they serious about this coastal highway, why not start it from the Calabar end? Or even from both ends to be fair, |

Gerrard59: OK. Thank you. Till when I am ready. It still looks confusing to me. If e too hard, I do normal trading. Buy and go.  A newer 3.0T machine with 164 slices reconstruction capacity could have need for software upgrades on weekly basis. Even with the “buy and go” you will still come back for these upgrades . By then, they will tell you the cost of flying an engineer down to Nigeria. The repair code is enterprise base. It’s not something you can shop around. |

Gerrard59: So, the hospitals work directly with those manufacturers, not the investors who matched them? If I understand correctly, the machines would be on the hospital's premises, right?
It is just that I don't trust anything public in Nigeria. Yes, the equipment will be mounted at the radiology suit of the hospital. However, a commitment of some part payment must be made. In some instances, it is the bank that comes in as an investor. These equipment companies are actually looking for other markets to expand their sales. |

Gerrard59: While we are both capitalists, privatising health care and education does not sit right with me. That is something I have wanted to converse with you - your penchant for privatising health care and education. Nigerians don't even have the money to pay for these services at public hospitals. Would they be able to pay when it is privatised? The same holds true for education. Unlike the US, where there are equally good public universities, most countries' top universities are publicly owned. So, why advocate for privatisation?
Let's look at Brazil, where education is free till the university level. There ought to be subsidies in certain sectors, of which education and health care are paramount. Exactly my concern when I suggested a lease model., An option were the manufacturer owns the equipment but give it out on a lease to own agreement. That way, they are responsible for maintenance. The purpose is to have it available and not just for profit. When this governors take vacations abroad, these are the type of information they are supposed to look for and bring them back to the people, even health commissioners and medical directors., |

Gerrard59: Can the teaching hospitals actually pay for it? No be "come today, come tomorrow" for money?
Looking at the value of the naira, second hand MRI machines would be the best. Second hand is not the best. These equipment most times have softwares that could no longer be supported by the original equipment manufacturer on older editions. Unfortunately, there are no universal standard repair because they are enterprise base. Each repair is patent by the manufacturer. So if you buy an almost out of date machine, it won’t be long before the manufacturer tells you that it has been phased out and no longer repairable. Remember that they are very sensitive equipment, and a little misuse or software glitch could throw it off leading to shutdown. |

I can help fix the machine but that problem is that it is obsolete and parts might not be available. When these people buy such equipment, they should never pay in full. Instead they should lease from the manufacturer. Siemens, GE, Philips and Konica are all good brands. An agreement of sales and service should be reached to reduce downtime. This is a money spinner but most investors in Nigeria are only interested in hotel business. A quick maths will give you an idea of the business aspect Take for instance, at 100k per exam for easy 20 exams in a day is #2M An equipment lease of 20 % interest rate of $150k ( equipment cost and installing) is just $30k. Divine this by 12 month you have $2500 a month This amount is achievable in any teaching hospital MRI department in Nigeria. And they will have newer, well maintained machine. Lack of information and exposure to international market / investors is the problem in these respect. In case they need my help and service I am available. |

If Nigeria should concentrate on increasing our gold reserves, Naira will appreciate. The gold in Zamfara is enough to boost the reserve. But they will rather leave it for bandits and the crooked governors.. Nigeria export of gold or access to gold reserves will see an increase in the strength of its currency. Also gold prices increase would result in the value of the country's total exports. Another way to understand this is that an increase in the price of gold would put Nigeria economy in a trade surplus or cause a reduction in the enormous trade deficit. Everything should not be centered on crude oil. When we ready to help ourselves, we will begin with telling ourselves the truth. Let every region contribute their fair share in rescuing the dwindling economy. |

Assuming Nigeria was free from debt or at least have a favorable balance of trade, then this might work. But Nigeria need to prove that it can back debts or at the minimum the interest on those external debts. Remember also that Nigeria like to borrow and are still borrowing. Which creditor would give money to a country on life support? If foreign reserve is depleted, it will affect the local currency. These reserves are used for direct financing of international payments imbalances. It is a buffer or prove of confidence to pay international debts. There are also used for indirect regulation of the magnitude of such imbalances through interventions in foreign exchange markets. This is where it becomes tricky because a lower reserve would affect the exchange rate of the country's currency. |

uwemjack: It's always better to use the window size in the design for a uniform window size which is aesthetically appealing, than to fabricate windows based on the bricklayers inaccurate dimensions on site. Break the blocks to fit the designed window sizes instead of the other way round. In standard projects you don't work with site opening sizes for subcontractor work, you work with the designed schedules. Cos the openings need to be adjusted to the right size The poor workmanship in this case is from the bricklayers who can't maintain designed dimensions.
Windows flying off plan is not related to measurement, but a flaw in the workmanship and not in any way related to building windows I wish to get knew insights , as someone had already pointed all these out. The relationship between the two scenarios, airplane and building construction is centered on lack of attention to details. |

jesusjnr2020: My God doesn't look on the outward appearance (mouth) as men do, but judges based on the heart. It's always the heart for God. It may come out of the mouth and it may not but as long as it comes out of the heart, it heard and seen by God.
Except your god is not my God that's when He would need mouth confession from a sinner to be saved. For my God, heart confession is enough. The mouth confession is only a confirmation of what's in the heart not a validation.
So stop confusing yourself. It's either a sinner must make a confession with the mouth to be saved by God otherwise that saying is not true. The sinners without mouth don't need to make confession with their mouths to be saved by my God because my God's salvation isn't restricted to those who have mouths but to all men. God creations are perfect. There is a purpose for every part of your body, to his glory alone.. His words, every hair on your head is numbered and God knows the number of hairs on your head. ( Luke 12 : 7) This is a testimony to his knowledge and need of every part of your body, no exceptions. The mouth is for confession unto salvation, Roman 10 vs 10, this is want his words says. His words can never change. |

Their hate against Anambra people is fuelling all tribal wars on Nairaland just to make sure they uproot Anambra people at home and abroad.
Yorubas and Hausas as well as other Nigerian tribes cannot understand the dynamics of South East politics.
Anambra people are facing the most hateful people that God created and only God can save us.
The crime of Anambra is that they try to be successful.
