Boko Haram has killed more Muslims than Christians

They have attacked more mosques than churches


Muslims were the first set of people to warn the FG about Boko Haram when it first started during Obasanjo's tenure.

If we live organised religion, people will still have something to fight about. Humans will always look for differences be it skin colour, religion, geography, intelligence. Andmost terrorist organizations have their roots in politics and economics not even religion.


What don't you understand?


delishpot:
Why would it bother me if it doesnt cause harm. Tell me, do you think boko haram is a terror group if they kill only christians who openly reject islam and mohamed? Me I do not support organized religion.
Christianity Etc › Re: Pastor Victor Ajisafe Arrested In Sierra Leone Over Hate Speech Against Islam by Sterope(f): 7:11pm On Sep 29, 2017
I don't care who look down upon me. Do I sound inferior to you? Do I sound like I care for the northern becaus of the religion? Do you know there are white Christians who think you should be in chains mowing their lawns or something? Learn to keep your hate to yourself. Nobody has time for that.


It is Quran not the Koran.undecided



delishpot:
Sweery, No one is feeding me bs, the north is doing well to show me who is boss when religious intolerance is concerned. Maybe you are a yoruba muslim(looked down upon by the hausa muslims incase you dont know) hence you never heard and that is why the hausas dont consider you guys true servants of the koran.

Everyone lets their sentiments cloud their reasoning. EVERYONE. I have been around enough to know that most people cannot let go of their sentiment at all, man or woman.

Which women should be able to tell a man? You people like to deceive yourself and talk as if adults can be controlled if need be? When you finish telling your child, I may listen to you.

For things that matter in my life, I will give thorough thought before I say either yes or no.


I don't need him to be Dangote. I would disagree with dangote if I have to because he is a business many doesn't men he knows everything. .









majekdom2:
Mosttimes, the things he expects you to say yes to are even things that matter in your life, if you ask me, I will give th0rough thoughts before saying no but women let sentiments cloud their sense of reasoning. For a financially weak man, yes there may be storms but a woman should be able to tell a 'MAN'. he doesnt have to be dangote before you think you can listen to him but at least above you or trying to be. Marriage is like a Business. most institutions in life are run like a business check around. Business is not always about a CEO, or a Line managers Decision. I have been in a company where the CEO had to listen to the advice of a very low staff. One soldier never wins a battle. saying NO without proper thoughts is one reason relationships have problems.

I agree with you madam, yes no one is perfect and companionships are so she compliments/completes you. I believe the rib out of Adam should be figurative enough for any reasonable man to understand.

Why i pointed that out was because the start of your post appeared combative with derision. Approach is the key thing madam and patience, if after all that, you can go ballistic all you want.

Your ego is not bigger than the collective well-being of the family. How am I supposed to trust you or regard you as the head if you cannot come to terms with your weaknesses?

You welcome.

Erm madam, small small, we all want marriages to work no need to appear combative. It is enough to trigger an ego tirade from a man speaking on "a man not financial responsible bla bla" statement in your previous post. smiley

There's a balance in the way you submit
Celebrities › Re: “Damilola Adegbite Was Not Submissive” – Chris Attoh Speaks On Crashed Marriage by Sterope(f): 4:11pm On Sep 29, 2017
I have heard and seen lots of Nigerian example of submission.....Not me and them cool.


When you tell it to some guys though, they will argue with you that those are not true examples of submission. I think they meant compromise with the man as the figurehead.smiley


However the majority of men and women in my experience will disagree with them.



ibkayee:
Lol it goes both ways my guy, men aren't perfect either. Lol like I said, it's up to the couple to set the dynamic they're comfortable with (whatever that is, it will differ) and keep to whatever their part of the bargain is and also, let's be honest

, a lot of Nigerian men's ideas of being submissive aren't always as civil and 'collaborative' as you've put it, so I can see why women would be averse to it.

Also don't expect the person to change if that's not how you met them. As for Chris and Dami I don't know what exactly happened with them
Celebrities › Re: “Damilola Adegbite Was Not Submissive” – Chris Attoh Speaks On Crashed Marriage by Sterope(f): 4:02pm On Sep 29, 2017
Of course, there will be a balance.

It wasn't easier in those days. It is a lie. It is never easy.


supersystemsnig:
If we do too much second guessing we become stuck in our tracks. Hence the need to trust and follow, and whatever the aftermath both parties bear, carefully guaging decisions and consequences and taking low risk decisions.. The truth is knowledge has made relationships difficult...itwas way easier back in the days... Also, not being questioned, but rather correcting in love, working together to maintain harmony, balance and moving forward... these are elements necessary in my own little knowledge for relationships to work.
Celebrities › Re: “Damilola Adegbite Was Not Submissive” – Chris Attoh Speaks On Crashed Marriage by Sterope(f): 4:00pm On Sep 29, 2017
Thanks. Compromise is more like it. It sounds like I do have a choice afterall. I believe both couples should be to ready compromise.

Gwaihir:
Perhaps subsmissive is a wrong word, compromise is the right word.
Celebrities › Re: “Damilola Adegbite Was Not Submissive” – Chris Attoh Speaks On Crashed Marriage by Sterope(f): 3:58pm On Sep 29, 2017
That is no longer submission, is it?




thesuave10:
That is your problem. Saying yes to everything is now foolishness. There's a balance and flow to the whole thing.
Celebrities › Re: “Damilola Adegbite Was Not Submissive” – Chris Attoh Speaks On Crashed Marriage by Sterope(f): 3:54pm On Sep 29, 2017
Sorry, parents say the same thing but at the end of the day, it is me and my life.


Your authority can and will be questioned. You are not God. I secondguess myself. I secondguess my parents and I will definitely secondguess my husband where he acts without due consideration. What type of wife would I be if cannot secondguess him on certain issues? He is not perfect, that is why he has me and that is why I have him.

Criticism is good if it is constructive not destructive. Shouting at him is destructive. I don't intend to do that.


supersystemsnig:
Sterope, this is not what we mean by submission. This is something else


Submission implies trust.

It implies safety, i.e am i safe in your hands.

It implies reliability. It implies even when i make the right call,will you give me time to turn the page over.

Submission doesn't imply blind leadership.

At times, you may play a role in decisions, or rather many times... But will you let me take the lead? Will you allow me lead?


Can my authority be trusted without been second guessed at each turning?

It means i know the way, trust and follow me, trust my judgements, but doesn't mean you don't have a voice or can't help me when i make wrong calls


If we shout at each other, because we consider ourselves equals, it means two separate will exists in the family hence ship wreck, just my two cents ma...
Christianity Etc › Re: Pastor Victor Ajisafe Arrested In Sierra Leone Over Hate Speech Against Islam by Sterope(f): 3:43pm On Sep 29, 2017
Yes, I can. Are you disappointed that Christianity does it bother me like the way Islam bothers you?

You are from the South, aren't you?


delishpot:
I can swear that no pastor has ever told me or suggested I kill any Muslim for being a non Christian. I can swear that none of my pastors has asked me to not make friends with a Muslim. I can swear that none has ever told me to tighten any grip against Muslims in my place of work. Can you swear same?

Like a man who is not financially responsible but expects his wife to trust in him because he is the head of the family... People and their jokessmiley

I admit I don't understand the word in the context of marriage. I understand that there are times when you go with everything he says but it is beyond comprehension to expect an adult to say ‘yes' to everything and be comfortable with someone else having his way all the time. I may understand submission in a business relationship but marriage with all its familiarity...Nope.

I might actually understand it the day my parents and I stop disagreeing. smiley




ibkayee:
I sha want a partnership, not a 'leader', though there's nothing wrong with that type of arrangement if both people are ok with it and are actually keeping to their part of the bargain.

Problem is when the people fixated on their women being submissive aren't doing the work to actually deserve it.

I wonder if they'd set this dynamic from the beginning or if he was hoping she'd change once they'd married. Anyway submission is subjective, I don't know exactly what his version of it is
Christianity Etc › Re: Pastor Victor Ajisafe Arrested In Sierra Leone Over Hate Speech Against Islam by Sterope(f): 3:27pm On Sep 29, 2017
Swear by your Bible if no Christian leader has done the same. Was it not with the Bible your ancestors were referred and treated as a slave? Was it not hatred for Jews that drove Hitler to commit genocide? Was it not lack of empathy, greed and hate that drove the supposedly Christians nations to arm ‘Muslim' countries and terrorist organizations to destroy the earth?


Sweetheart, I am not going to pretend that all those who proclaim themselves Muslims are nice and sweet but it so foolery to claim that Muslims or Islam is much violent than other religions.

I don't know who has been feeding you bullshit, seems you get off on it but I have never heard an Imam incite violence against Christians. Apparently, the imams are too busy supplicating to God to notice that they want all Christians dead.



delishpot:
Simple question wey I ask. Did I say I did not know what he did? I only said I wonder which religion the people calling for burning and destruction come from. It's a poll which religion do you think they represent? Swear by your Quran, that no Muslim leader has ever mocked Christians and invited violence in your mosques and gatherings? Swear that NO imam has ever spoken negatively in a way that means hatered towards Christians to your hearing.
Christianity Etc › Re: Pastor Victor Ajisafe Arrested In Sierra Leone Over Hate Speech Against Islam by Sterope(f): 3:08pm On Sep 29, 2017
Which is rare for a country like Sierra Leone.

Do you know what a hate speech does? It incites.


I clearly do not support the violence but let's not act like hatred and violence is specific to a religion or tribe.
delishpot:
I clearly talked of the violence threatened there not wether the country is Islamic or not.
Christianity Etc › Re: Pastor Victor Ajisafe Arrested In Sierra Leone Over Hate Speech Against Islam by Sterope(f): 3:02pm On Sep 29, 2017
Let's use our brain, shall we?

Seirre Leone a predominant Muslim country yet it is one of the most religious tolerant country in the world.


If he is going to preach hate, deporting him or dispossesing him of HIS church is a good way to prevent such madness. I won't advocate burning, giving it to a better Christian would be great.



delishpot:
Let's take a poll..,....those who threaten violence to burn his churches are from which religion? ....
