IslamRe: Ramadan 2025: NSCIA Urges Muslims To Look Out For Moon by Sterope(f): 12:09am On Mar 02, 2025
Don't try to explain what happened. Political strive is a human behaviour.
NOETHNICITY:
the bolded happened only in your imagination

Didn’t you see the sultan’s announcement?
We all complied, and only hate filled Christians like you are disappointed
IslamRe: Ramadan 2025: NSCIA Urges Muslims To Look Out For Moon by Sterope(f): 12:08am On Mar 02, 2025
We don't know. We don't care.

It has no bearing on our core faith.

May God grant you the political strive you are looking for.


AntlisIaam:
Sultan made his own declaration yesterday but the league of alfas and imams had fixed March 1 to commence their own 1-0-1 fasting some weeks back. Some loyalists to Sultan condemned the league of alfas and imams to have made their own decisions without the authority of your fulani master.

The question is why did the league of alfas and imams in SW states, Edo, Kogi, Kwara and Delta kicked against the directives of Sultan by fixing their own date for the commmencent of Ramadan without the directives of your fulani master in sokoto?

Guy, don't pretend as if you don't know what is happening, say the truth to free your mind

The Persian and Roman Empires, the two greatest superpowers were brought down by militaries with far less experience in warfare and significantly fewer men, many times outnumbered by a ratio of 3 to 1.

Na God o grin

Moses fought, David fought with God's permission. The prophet fought as well with God's command and permission and we are happy with it. Peace if you want, war if you want that as well. Servants of God do not shy away from either and we aren't hypocrities.

IDF bombed killed them.

Why are they complaining? Many more X 1000 Palestinians have died in Israeli hands including children, their soldiers confess it all the time on Tik Tok.

Parents that wants to protect their children will not involve themselves in genocide, colonisation and land theft.

You should see how it is how it is made.

Food is an interesting concept

We don't eat Rice and ewedu. I have never heard of that before

Only amala is allowed with ewedu. Even with fufu, lafun or eba, many people don't find it palatable and I am one of them.
illicit:
Cool

And the guy now say rice n Ewedu is southwest food...

Never seen anyone eat that around here, some people might tho but it's very uncommon unlike bread and noodles
FoodRe: Weird But Tasty Food Pairings We Love But Won’t Admit by Sterope(f): 2:50pm On Feb 20, 2025
Rice and Okra soup - It is a stable with Senegalese, Gambians, etc

Ewedu with rice - Arabs and Middle Eastern (they call it molokhia they cook it with garlic etc)
Foreign AffairsRe: Jewish Terrorist Arrested After Shooting 2 Israelis He Thought Were Palestinians by Sterope(f): 11:09am On Feb 18, 2025
The myth of Jews nationality. This is what happens when you establish cou try based on religion

A colonial country where you can have the the whitest, blackest, indianest, Chinisest person can claim to be indigenous to the land. A myth!


European jews are superior to Arab Jews. It is no news how the Israeli government have tried to stamp out Arab nationality of Arab Jews grin
AgricultureRe: Efo Tete (african Spinach) And Efo Soko (lagos Spinach) Monetization by Sterope(f): 9:40pm On Feb 15, 2025
I noticed. My mum is the only one in her family that use efo tete. Most likely conditioning or upbringing.

jidestroud:
You are quite right. Nevertheless, you'll hardly ever see a typical Yoruba person go for Efo Tete. Most don't even know why they don't. grin

I have asked a few of the ladies who patronize me the very question on why they don't want Tete and the replies are astonishing grin cheesy grin. You hear them say things like, it's not sweet, it makes the face of the soup dull, it eats to much ingredients, it purges... A lady went as far as saying to much of eating Efo Tete leads to impotency in man; embarassed huh. I was bewildered, stunned & mentally hunted after hearing that!!! Me wey dey chop Efo Tete like craze.

Well, after probing further, I realized most of them haven't even tried it once. It's just what has been passed on and on amongst us. Lol...
How person go talk say Efo Tete no sweet? You no Sabi cook biko!!! Same Efo Tete I dey chop dey carry plate lick like a bush man that I am?

Silly title. That conflict you are looking for will be yours if God wills it.
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f):
What speculation?

That The existence of life itself dictates there is something higher.

Unfortunately for you, many religions across the universe do believe in the existence of consciousness after death. What happens to that consciousness is mainly the bone of contention.

I am against folks making definitive statements that dismisses the complexities of this world and folks who haven't experienced death before.

Kobojunkie:
Again, you admitted earlier that this is all speculation and hence also not factual claims regarding belief and after life, yes? 🤔

Now, of course, I am against folks making definitive statements regarding that which is unknown, regardless of which side they are on. undecided
EducationRe: UNIZIK Female Student Bites Lecturer For Interrupting Her Dance Video Recording by Sterope(f): 11:28pm On Feb 11, 2025
And she was in the way. People need to learn we en to be considerate. She should have felt ashamed for needing to be tapped to be mindful of her surroundings but content must be created.

pocohantas:
The video clearly shows she is the one dragging and tearing his clothes. Yet she posted an AI generated explanation twisting events. This attitude of trying to make content everywhere is why many Lagos restaurants are coming up with no picture/video policy. They act like everyone needs to stop for them to shoot those silly dance videos.

She was making a video and moving backwards. If the man didn't stretch out his hand to tap her, she would have bumped into him in an inappropriate way.

Irrespective of the tap, for her to physically abuse him tells a lot. I hope she is rusticated.
EducationRe: Nobody Will Teach You This In School by Sterope(f): 7:56am On Feb 11, 2025
I have a child who draws.

He learnt it. I coached him, despite having no clue about art or colours. Yet his ability to match colours is unbelievable for a child his age. It is truly genius level.

No one in the family is creative. Not a single person.

Anyone can learn to be creative. But to rise above creativity? That takes something more, something innate. I daresay you can learn to have that as well.

If you struggle to grasp that, take it up with your primary school teacher.



Smithwilliams826:

What you typed makes no sense.

Check the meaning of creativity and learning.

Your last statement is another round of rubbish
EducationRe: Nobody Will Teach You This In School by Sterope(f): 9:07pm On Feb 10, 2025
Creativity is not inbuilt. It is learned.

However, there are creatives that are pure genius and innovators.


Natbrowny:
It may look simple but its creativity.

My pops asked us one day to fill a jerican with beans.

My cousins, neighbor kids were all there with their own jerican n beans for the assignment, some were using hands to pack and fill, some were even picking one by one.

I just conned up a paper and boom seconds jerican don full. So many assignments like dat, pops discovered i was creative and encouraged me. Now i do tinz that in splits seconds, I'll just decide I'm going a particular way n style and people around will be like haaaa so dis guy really did dis. Creativity is inbuilt and also can be learned very well n quickly.
We all have a gift, talent, whatever name u call it
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 10:52am On Feb 08, 2025
In whatever it was before the body was created.

In Islam, body decayed or gone but the consciousness (soul) remains aware. The Qur'an says there is unseen barrier until the day of rising.

In what exact form, gas, energy, etc? Only God knows!

People feel the death of a loved one before hearing of it. Which suggest we consciousness isn't just physical.

Truthseeker10:
In what form does consciousness remain after death?
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 10:12am On Feb 08, 2025
You are missing the connection
1. We lack sufficient knowledge to make any definitive argument against life after death.

2. The world operates with such an unbelievably precision from the laws of physics to the fine-tuning of the solar system. The idea that all of this happened without any intelligent cause is improbable. It is reasonable to consider there is something else out there science do not yet.

3. Modern research have suggested that humans naturally believe in a higher power from childhood. It is called Fitra in Islam, the belief that we are all born with that natural disposition. This points to something deeper within our nature.

4. Lack of physical evidence does not negate the belief in the higher power. Unless you are claiming that science sees and knows all. We live in a world people have dreams/intuition that transcends time and actual knowledge. Science is yet to provide an answer for that. You cannot study consciousness does not mean it doesn't exist.

5. My perspective is influenced by my faith, but it does not make it irrational. Belief in the unseen is not unique to my religion, it also exists in scientific theory



Kobojunkie:
You are missing the point. This is not about whether one believes in a deity or not but whether the claims attributed to the particular deity surrounding the issue of death are factual or not. undecided
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 2:12am On Feb 08, 2025
Even kids are born with the natural disposition to belief in God.

You look at the world and you don't wonder and admire its intricacies..Lol.



Kobojunkie:
According to you, it is speculation, is it not? undecided
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 2:08am On Feb 08, 2025
Who says it applies?

However you don't have enough knowledge to outrightly dismiss life after death? Or anything about the creation. You know nothing.

The complexities of life itself is proof of God.

Kobojunkie:
1. But the sayings of your Allah don't apply to me and those who don't believe his version of things, right? Again, there are over 4000 different deities, all of them with different ideas regarding the place of death. Yes, you are free to believe the stories told you by your Allah but without proof, it is all speculation, right? undecided

2. But I don't need to first die before I know the facts I had previously stated regarding death, right? undecided

3. So, you admit that your belief is mere speculation? undecided

4. How could that be wiser if we have no way of proving its higher consciousness or evidence that claims attributed to him hold water? undecided

5. Recall this is the same deity whose claims you admitted earlier you have no proof of. So? undecided
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 1:58am On Feb 08, 2025
Which was why I stated earlier on- I am a Muslim and my judgement comes from the Qur'an.

You are not dead. You can't say 100% there is no life beyond this life. You can't also create life. So he's, I am discounting whatever opinion you or him has about life or death. Objectively, you are wrong. You don't know.

I could be wrong too because I don't know either but it would be foolish to outrightly says there isn't life after death. There is so much we don't know. We have very limited knowledge about the world.

With our limited knowledge it is wiser to consider the higher consciousness (God). My God says there is life after death so yes there is. I don't care what other diety says.


Kobojunkie:
I am afraid you lost me there. Wetin concern "circular argument" with any of the questions wey I ask abeg?

2. Wait a second... a moment ago, we were discussing what happens when we die. But now I see you have seguewayed into talking about what some deity thinks or says of death. Why? Also, there are over 4000 different deities out there each with their unique ideas regarding death, so what makes you think your deities idea should be introduced in the case when death is common to us all but your deity isn't? undecided

So, earlier when you mentioned some higher consciousness, you were not referring to the human consciousness acquiring a higher status but of a completely different and non-human consciousness which you considered of higher status? huh
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 1:31am On Feb 08, 2025
Circular argument

He is a creator. Ever living, ever lasting. Which defeats your question he can't be created. No begining and no end.

He says there is life after death. Your consciousness remains but not in your body and I abide by that.

Kobojunkie:
At what point was this higher consciousness born and what is the evidence of its birth? What is the benefit of this higher consciousness? And by the way, isn't this what speculating is all about? undecided
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 1:17am On Feb 08, 2025
It loses the ability does not negate the existence of higher consciousness

Kobojunkie:
We do know a couple of things that will happen after a person dies and they are that:

➜The consciousness that was originally born into that body completely loses its ability to communicate with the outside world through that same body
➜The body that once held the consciousness degrades back to the dust from which it was made.

These things we know for sure i.e. they are not speculations. undecided
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 1:16am On Feb 08, 2025
You want me to trust your opinion based on your limited knowledge.

I am a Muslim. I would rather trust God.

Kobojunkie:
Does one need to be able to create life before one can have an opinion based on the much we can know as humans about death though? huh
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 1:10am On Feb 08, 2025
Yes to your question

You don't even know what would after. You are speculating.

Kobojunkie:
Does one first need to die before realizing that just as we had no consciousness before conception— acquired a physical form death possibly signifies an end to the consciousness since the physical form is returned back to the elements from which it was made? undecided
Christianity EtcRe: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f): 12:53am On Feb 08, 2025
You are not dead and you have so much to say about death..

What more screams liar and delusional than this?
