We might just be on the way to ridding corrupt and inept elements from enjoying sacred privileges as has always been the case. There are many Sarakis out there but the journey must start with one.
Enough of celebrating mediocrity

And there are also many Tinubus out there but the main journey will begin

Attention: I urge every REAL Muslim in this forum reading this to get his/her quran and open to Surah Al Anaam, " Quran 6 " and be reciting from the first verse to verse 3 for Justice Danlandi Umar. May Almighty Allah protect him, guide him against any evil plan as his about to perform one of the biggest task. May God neutralize every Katali brought into the court room by the bad people to stop justice Danlandi Umar from discharging his duty diligently. So help him God, Amin.

Are you this stupid?

THE BLACKMAN AND THE BLACKWOMAN AS ONE IS GOD. IN DIVINE UNITY, HE CREATED THE UNIVERSE, THE ONE BEFORE THIS UNIVERSE AND THE NEXT TO COME. HE CREATED EVERYTHING IN IT AND EVERYTHING THAT WILL EVER EXIST IN IT.
WE SAY "HE" BECAUSE THE NON-BLACK PEOPLE HAVE A DEMENTED BRAIN. AFRICAN LANGUAGES DO NOT HAVE CLASSIFICATION OF PRONOUN FOR WOMAN AND MAN WE SIMPLY WOULD US "O" FOR THE YOUNGER OR AGE MATE OR WE USE "E" FOR THE OLDER OR ELDERLY.

I wanted to ask you if you are high but since that may sound rude, I'll hold my peace.

Barbarism!!! of a foolish christain. U now blasphem against the only sources of light and energy to our planet and by extention, life, let us all look toward the east from whence alone cometh light. The sun is the source of energy and the sustainer of life. and God is light and light is from the east, every man every woman is a star, there for let us all strive to become the light of God and by extention the sun's (son's) of God, i am one with light, i am one with God, i am one with the sun, where i'm there is no darkness, notin gross, notin carnal, notin material shall stand before the sun, they shall varnish as darkness does before the light (sun) u fill ur mind with an imagery being(yesus) now u blasphem against the sun (son) of God. Repent from ur BARbarism....!!!!!!

Are you a Sun Worshiper?

plaetton:
Gosh!

Why can't Africans show as much obsession with the atom and it's many mysteries as they obsess with this idea of god ?.

Why can't we at least look at the sub-atomic particles , for perhaps, the footprints of this god , so that we may follow and discover him/her/it ?

Isn't enquiry and discovery the best homage we can pay to the supposed architect of the universe that supposedly gave us a brain to think ?


It is obvious that a supposed creator or the dynamics forces of evolution imbued us with a mind in order for us to ponder on our existence, and then search for truth, not prematurely claim it purely on the basis on the basis of fear and anxiety.

We forget that the worship of gods began at the primacy of our mental development , at our intellectual infancy, when our most primitive and primordial instincts for survival and self-preservation clearly dominated our intellect and reason.

So, are you pondering truth, or are you already claiming it ?

It's not wrong when you inquire about God and that is what is happening here. You seem to be learned but your undertone sounds like someone who thinks he has attained.
When you say 'supposed architect of the Universe', does it mean you are not sure if he is and just saying what you were told or heard? Anyways, I always hear Masons use that phrase (Great Architect) and I don't think you are one. I will like u to shed more light because unknowingly, you gave him a name (Architect of the Universe).

Auki:
In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful.

1. Say, "He is Allah, the One.

2. Allah, the Absolute.

3. He begets not, nor was He begotten.

4. And there is nothing comparable to Him."

So if He is Allah, I can call Him God instead of Allah. Do u agree with that

johnydon22:


No God is a general name for all of them .. zues, horus, osiris all bear that title God... so he is asking you to identify urs...

That wasn't my question. I never asked anybody to identify anything.. My question is, 'who is God?' So don't put ideas in people's heads. Just let them say their mind from their own understanding about who God is.

pillarmaria:

I will keep praying for God to open our eyes, i never tried saying Mary was meant to be our savior, indeed she was created by the creator who later became a our savior...the aim of this post is to sell knowledge to those in need of it, i urge you to humbly read this post again and learn the hiding plan satan has.

Instead of trying to prove your point, u are looking for who to pray for. Nawaoo! This is serious! Where did God show Lucifer the picture of a woman? Please I want to learn..

Nairalander01:

Good, you see your tithe is not a free will donation unlike the offering
That why you use the word 'give' when it comes to offering
And 'pay' when it comes to tithe, showing that it an obligation/duty as a christian that you pay your tithe as at when due(for your own good)

Everything I have belong to God, so why should I pay tithe? Your quotation was made when there was not enough provisions for the priests and their families and this development indirectly affects the work of God. It is not applicable in a church with a pastor who takes everything and lacks accountability for what he took and runs the church like his personal business. Especially when he owns jets and fleet of cars to prove my point. I'd rather give it to a beggar in the street. I rest my case.

I'm thinking about where to categorize u but calling u a theologian will be de last thing. I don't even know where to start commenting because u've already turned de Bible upside down. Where did God show Lucifer the picture of a woman. At a point, u were making a refernce to Isaiah, all of a sudden u began to cap it with Genesis. Nawa oo.. Suffice it to say dat Mary is now ur Savior and not Jesus! Who did this to u?

Hiswordxray:
I know you desire the truth but Instead of asking people who God is why not ask God himself.
Since God is omnipresent He should be able to hear you and reveal Himself to you.

Talk to God in your heart or out loud and be patient. Just wait patiently as you seek Him desperately then He would reveal Himself to you.

Are u sure u understand de question? How can I ask Him to reveal Himself to me when the question assumes I don't know who he is at the first place. The thread is SEEKING constructive points not a Preacher!

johnydon22:


[size=20] He[/size] So its a male?

I use He because I want to represent a Dorminant. Not saying God is a Man or a Woman

Horus:


Stop and think one moment. The name God is not really in the bible. If this is not an English book written by Englishmen, it’s not there; it was added. You are reading a translation. You will also find that God, whether you have a big G, or little g, is not being used in the singular tense, as Eloh or Allah. The beings spoken of in the bible and Koran are the Elohim, the plural of Eloh.

Hmmm.. Learning something.. So are u talking about gods?

We mention him everyday.. Now who is He?

Just trying to raise questions here . I need constructed emphasis and not bickering.

Make government legalize possession of fire arms for self defencs naa

it's only a mad man that will give gun to another man! From the caliber of persons I see everyday in this country, it's better to be defenceless, than to legalise gun carrying to an Almajiri!, or do u think they won't have one? Moreover, gun is becoming outdated, na bomb de reign dis days

what Nigerans need is Education and Enlightenment. It's only an ignorant man that lets himself 2 be coaxed into suicide bombing, and it's only a coward that throws grenade in de market place at market women and children, and blow innocent school children to thy kingdom! If Bokoharams think they've got some balls, let them show some face and stop hiding like de rats they are, Nigerian security is not too bad but there problem is dat they are yet 2 learn how to play hide and seek, that's de current game dis days and they should begin to learn dat, all de same, everybody should go to school and stop behaving bush animals

Fela smokes weed, had several wives, died of aids!
Fela was a mad song writer, played the saxophone,
keyboard, trumpet etc. .
Fela was an activist dat fought 4 human rights, fela saw
the future we live in today!
Internationally, he's been remembered for his music. . .
That makes him an ICON.
Many youths that chose to follow his weakness instead of
his strenghts, av themselves to blame!
I learnt the saxophone cos of fela. . .
He's my role model.
U cant tel me he's a bad rolemodel, cos he smokes weed.
Chose what u want in life, when u do bad, dnt blame it

@Tosinanded u are right man, everybody has to choose what he wants from the life of a person, you got the saxophone and that's good for you. As for me, I got the African Pride from him, I dress Africa, and I'm writing a book on African Culture, to all other posters, nobody holy pass, not even your so called Pastors and bishops, not even the Pope, they are all bunch of hypocrites, there is a big ''man of God'' in Europe who is in jail for child Abuse. The man of God had sex with an underaged boy of 17. This man of God has abt 3000 members in his church. I won't call his name cuz I'm not here 2 rubbish anyone. Talking abt Fela not having a character, does the Oyinbo man has a character? A place where a man marry his fellow man, or is it right just because it is done by Oyinbo? Fela sings half Naked, and so what? Oyinbo people almost go naked 2 win a beauty contest and de culture has been passed to us, Fela has his faults just like me and any other dude out there on nairaland, but if u think say u holy pass, look into my eyes and tell me say u passRe: Is Fela Really A Nigerian Icon

The reason I love ur thread is because it has ended up in humbling you,
You are one of those persons I see who carry themselves with pride as if they know it all, and always ready to fight anyone who says anthing contrary to ur reasoning.
Music Life of Fela, he started a new genre of song, and entertained the men and women of his time, both localy and international.
Education: may be u don't know but Fela was well educated and that was why he was able to understand that are Africans are no barbarians.
Culture, Fela promotes his culture by his dressing, and by his music. That was a time when people like Chris Okotie were imitating the westerner both in songs and dressing. He always choose to speak his native language, but since he is passing a message not only to his tribe but to all Nigerians and Africans as a whole, he settled for the country man's language which is pidgin English as further mockery to western world,
Life style: what he does with his personal time is his business so long as it doesn't constitute a nuisance to the public,
In summary, he is a man to be reckoned with because of his integrity, and moreover it takes a man with guts to say and do the things he did, things which cannot be said or done in the democratic administration of Obasanjo not talk of his military regime, but one man did it, and dat man is FELA ANIKULAKPO-KUTI. It's hard to see a man with guts in this era, so when u see one, give him de respect he deserves, and that's what I just did, so, when are u going stop being a hater and start becoming a player? Or is it ignorance?

Clap! Clap! Clap! All hail the campaign manager! @Poster just for posting this rubbish online, you' ve just shown what an idiot you are! Do u think that campaigning for Ohakim on Naira land will help matters? Wherever you take your campaign to, there will be sensible Imo people to counter it. Sensible Imo people like Citizen Samuelson Iwuoha are everywhere on the net waiting for thieves like you to rear their ugly head up. Everybody know that Ohakim is a devil! The guy is has no vision. What has renaming Imo state University has to do with the development of the school. Changing the name of a product does not rebrand a product. Who is this so called Evans Enwerem? This is one of the insults we get from visionless men. I am going to organise a Guber poll on Naira land between Ohakim and Rochas. Feel free to come and vote!

I've been pondering on this and decided to bring it out to the House of Naira land as a case study. Between the former President of Nigeria, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, and the former Governor of the Old Eastern Region, Chief Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, who is or was the leader of the Igbos? This is not meant to cause problem but all the same, say your mind!

Stankoko:

the reason I'm taking the pains to reply u is to tell u what an educated iliterate u are. Secondly, so u don't confuse other inncent minded people of naira land. If u have read me well u ought to have noticed that I wasn't condeming dora's action in it's entirety. I am not advocating for the criminals at the drug market either. All I said is this, anything worth doing, is worth doing well. I know there are fake drugs but must the innocent ones also be crucified. U said u are a medic, how many fake drugs were found in that market? If those fake drugs were actually discovered, why were the perpetrators not arrested? Why have they not been charged to court? Why are they not in prison now? Do u want to know why? It's because there were no fake drugs there! The fake drugs u and I are talking about are the ones with nafdac no. I hope u understand where I am coming from? Amoxil, paracetamol, panadol, zentel, etc. These are de fake drugs we are talking about. They were'nt burnt by dora's agents and that's y they are still there today. The truth is that your role model dora did not get the job done, why the likes of u are celebrating her is because two silly men tried to assasinate her, when she failed to die, she became a hero or heroine. As for me, she is a political opportunist looking for the right moment to strike. You called yourself a medical doctor, but don't know these thing. May be u got your medical license in your village. Or were u trying to scare me with it? I may not be a medical doctor but I am already a doctor of public Administrations in one of the best institutions in America. So don't try to scare me with your Medical whatever cuz I have lots of them as friends in the states. I've already wasted enough time with u, good day and keep on wallowing in your ignorance.

@ stankoko i choose not to argue with those of you outside there cos you live merely on hear say. if you happen close relatives over there or mingle wt those affected, no doubt they confused you . i have a cousin over there who has caplets and tablets moulder in his shop, will neither pity or bear with him if they get him imprisoned today. is only in nigeria that insatiable quest for money gets pple easily blindfolded. i rest my case till fed govt pass some bills into law with 80% enforcement

I'm not talking merely on rumours, I have facts. Talking about the guy that has a tablet moulder in his shop, what drugs do u think he would be producing? U guessed right, the ones with Nafdac nos! But when the half baked educated Dora came, what did he do? He overlooked them. Why? Because they have Nafdac no. To me, the Nafdac no is just a license to produce rubbish. They should start looking at those drugs very well, cuz most of them are fake! You, the doc of all people ought to know that. My teacher, Mr.Jones, told me in Grade 8, ''Stan, you read but u don't study, think about it''. I guess it's also applicable to u, Falgar. Think about it!

falgar:

stankoko , no doubt you are the biggest fool of our time. d fact dt ngige 's cohorts are importers of fake drug and sub standard drugs importers makes him d biggest looser of our time.
i am a medical personnel and in position to tell you how head bridge drug has dealt wt pple.if u have vowed not to justify Dora' s act during NAFDAC days then i wish your loved one or child be treated with expired drugs which expiry date has bn doctored, a chalk molded into shape of a vital drug when your life is hanging in a thin line.
AMERICAN DRUGS my foot when u cant get it registered,is only in naija dt pple justify silly act .
i rather will accept that u prefer ngige than her and not tell me u hate her cos she served the country right. dont worry most of the bill phamarcists are pushing in the house will send you to village

NGIGE WANTED TO PLAY SMART GUY TO BLAME EVERY THING ON PDP AND APGA, BUT WE THE POLITICAL PUNDIT NO WHAT HE IS UP TO .

LISTEN MY PEOPLE NGIGE WILL NEVER WIN AN ELECTION IN ANMBRA EVEN AS A LOCAL GOVERNMENT CHAIRMAN.
[quote][/quote]I wonder why people just type because they have a Keyboard. If u don't know what happened at the polls, then shut the f***k up and stop talking rubbish. Dora may be a hero @ abuja but she's no hero over here because she let herself to be used in an inhuman campaign against Ndigbo. How can dora win in her constituency when only few persons like her. Any sensible and right thinking person knows that it takes a majority to win an election. Dora destroyed goods worth billions in an unguarded war against fake drugs. I'm not saying that fake drug is okay, but I am trying to say that anything worth doing is worth doing well. Most of the drugs burnt were american drugs just because they have no Nafdac no. Since when did americans begin to produce fake drugs? The fake drugs they ought to have watched out for were the ones with Nafdac no. Lots of Paracetamol and Panadols are fake drugs. Even when dora was rampaging the masses like a loose canon, what were the tools used in ascertaining the authenticity of the drugs? While the drug market was shut down for months and shop owners dying of hunger, akunyili was busy collecting International awards. Today she wants to represent the masses. She thought that hiding behind the big coat of Peter Obi would save her, but unfortunately for her, anambrarians sre tired of wolves in sheep's clothing. Akunyili is just an opportunist. Period. Ngige is the man and the revolution has just begun! Ahoi!

@uyi when the dog awakens, it might not bark but it may bite. I'm neither a christian nor muslim, so u can have ur fun. But what I just said was that if ur topic is on an intelectual basis, then u shouldn't be sentimental. As for me, I love to philosophize, so most of my arguments are just to bring out emphasis. Lawyers argue to win and I am not a lawyer. I am a philosopher.

a pastor's wife has to be herself. Simple. She doesn't have to be a pastor just because her husband is a pastor. As a wife and probably, a mother, her family comes first. You can't mother a church when you can't mother your family. You can be a bishop's wife and still be an ordinary church member.

@Uyi when you started this topic, I thought it was from an intellectual point of view, but you've just taken side. And since you already know the answer, why do you till post the topic? You said you want to know if God is evil, and Mudley gave you an answer and u begin to attack him. From my assesment of this topic and comments so far, I just discovered that you are a trouble maker. You know the kind of controversy your topic will generate and you still have the temerity to post it. Let the sleeping dog lie. Please. For the sake of peace.
