Are you normal?

Don't crucify the fellow. He has a point, even though he didn't say it nicely. Chronic masturbation can worsen the condition.

Dopamine surges during masturbation cause dysregulation of dopamine receptors, which can lead to poor stress response, which, in turn, can trigger the demyelination of CNS neurons — the hallmark of Multiple Sclerosis!

Admin. Please post this to the front page, so as to get enough viewers. I would try to Bea's brief as possible and please ignore my grammar, as I'm not in the right state of mind typing this.

From my childhood up to my present age, I have been faced with a rare disease, which appears to be progressive and degenerative with time. with the symptoms been mild from my childhood, but as I grew up they became chronic. The symptoms appear to affect the entire nervous systems (i.e, the central, the peripheral, the autonomic, and the sensory nervous systems).

The symptoms, not limited to the following are:
1. Diarrhea alternating with constipation
2. Burning sensations with electric shock and flashes kind of feelings.
3. Chest pain, shortness of breath and palpitations.
4. Severe body pain and difficulty walking.
5. Cognitive impairment and brain fog.
6. Blurry vision.
7. Intolerant to cold and heat.
8. Nausea and metallic tastes.

For the past 7 years in which the symptoms became chronic, I have visited many hospitals in which I was told to carry out a number of diagnosis. Some of the diagnosis include:
1. Blood tests
3. Stool culture
3. Chest X-ray
4. Ultrasound
5. Endoscopy
6. Colonoscopy
7. Ct scan of the brain
8. MRI, etc.

with those diagnosis done, nothing specific has been detected as been the root cause of these. So the doctors resulted to treating me symptomatically. The drugs sometimes seem to alleviate the symptoms, but at a point , they become resistant to the drugs.

I have been on a research since, and like a month ago, I came across a disease called FAMILIAL DYSAUTONOMIA. This disease captures my condition. However, the problem seem to be that; the doctors don't a have a clear knowledge of it, the disease is rare and i s not common to our people but a Jewish tribe, and there is no known cure for it presently.

with this, I am mentally, psychologically, emotionally and physically depressed. So family, I need your medical advice, suggestions, and most importantly your prayers to enable over come this challenge. IT IS SUICIDAL HELP ME PLEASE.

Most likely Multiple Sclerosis. Familial Dysautonomia cannot explain symptoms like the cognitive impairment (forgetfulness, mental dullness, and the rest), brain fogs, and blurry vision. Other symptoms you may have include frequent muscle twitches at different parts of the body, tinnitus (like crickets singing in your ears), poor sleep, sudden hot or cold flushes on one or both legs, and others. The alternating diarrhea and constipation you described may also be associated with too much gas and abdominal distension (bloating). This is likely related to the metallic taste you described (most likely the effects of methane). Evidence suggest that the abdominal issues are not mere associations of the condition but a part of the cause of the autoimmune condition that leads to the demyelination of the nerves.

I want to believe you also have frequent muscle twitches.

I think you might be suffering from multiple sclerosis. Nigerian doctors don't often consider it in their differential diagnosis.

Lol. Was expecting the excuses.

One thing I find funny about you christians is your shameless manifestation of faithlessness in the same God you claim to believe in.

In your storybook, Elijah tested Baal without entertaining any excuses — whether it's Baal's will to answer at that moment or not.

But in that story, one thing you can give Baal's prophets credit for is their unwavering belief in Baal's capability to answer! This is one thing you christians, from your Pope, bishops, and daddies GOs to the least amongst you, do not have. Instead of showing faith in the God you claim to believe in, you cleverly manufacture excuses to defend him.

Oga believer, manifest your faith and shame the devil!

I think this analysis will be balanced if we x-ray reasons why these men are pushed out to the side chicks too. Agreed, keeping side chicks has some demerits, but many are not doing it because they wanted to, they were pushed by the same women complaining.

The only sensible comment here.

Women are wired to resist you when you need them and seek you out when you act like you don't need them. To act like you don't need her, you have to be getting it elsewhere or you just be dying inside forming like you don't need it.

There will always be side chicks in this game. It's just the nature of the game!

Can the mascots of Mickey-Mouse and Barney entertain children inside a church program??

While I'm not here to defend the church and the manner they chose to do their inculturation or celebrate their cultural heritage, this could be their reason for choosing to do it inside their Church building:

They understood that their people have this juju-based fear towards masquerade. They understood that their people believe that their God is most powerful and the church building is his domain. In other words, their most powerful God can defend them from whatever power the masquerade supposedly has. So, they chose to do their cultural thing inside the church to allay the fear of masquerade and have them play with it in the presence of their most powerful God that can protect them from their fears!

I don't follow at all ! undecided

You said ancestors are juju.

But said a particular Jewish ancestor is different; in fact, that he's the Law. Moreover, that he's not an ancestor to you since you are not Jewish. So, he doesn't not qualify as juju since he's not your direct ancestor (Though, we have both agreed that he's an ancestor).

I asked what made this ancestor different or special that you call him the law. If he has any special powers, you should prove it!

Then, addressing the fact that you regard him highly for not being your ancestor, I pointed out that there are other ancestors that are regarded by non natives. An example is Krishna, who's an Indian ancestor but also regarded by non Indians. If those non natives call Krishna the law, does that make Krishna the law?

My point is, whichever ancestor you regard so highly, you should prove why he's superior to other ancestors! If you say Jesus, a Jewish ancestor, is the Law, prove to me why and how he's superior to other ancestors! Then, I proposed a test similar to what Elijah used to prove that his God was superior to Baal. If you are ready for that test, I will be very happy to witness it.

1. Last I checked, masquerades are more to do with the spirits and gods they represent than the men who dorn the costumes. In fact, in many cases, there are preparation rituals undergone by those who dorn those masquerades to ready them to wear the semblance of the spirits or gods in question. undecided


I forgot to address this: Masquerades and their costumes are normal African culture. There are no spirits there. All the abracadabra they display to inspire awe are simply part of the culture. They're not different from Father Christmas that dresses up behind the stage but they tell you that he is from the North Pole and all the rest to inspire importance or whatever they want to inspire.

People who are out of points resort to personal attacks. I'm more than that. Try again!

Back to the point: You said earlier that juju is a belief in ancestors. But Jesus whom you profess is also an ancestor — a Jewish ancestor!


Whether you call him law or whatever you want, you can't change the fact that he's a deified ancestor.

So, if you think that this particular ancestor has powers, unlike others, you have to prove it. If there's no demonstrable evidence that he's different from other ancestors, then there's nothing special about him!

Now, they're trying to show you that masquerade is nothing but a costume by allowing people dances with it freely in close proximity, and you still complain.

It's not a matter of what the white man thinks of you. It's about the black man's naivety and a mindset devoid of rational thinking. It seems the black man lacks the ability to think.

If you think your Jesus is different from Baal, fix a date let's head to Igbobi to perform the Elijah's test:

You call on your Jesus to heal an amputatee right there in our presence. If he doesn't heal the amputatee, we can conclude he's not different from Baal then.

You cannot excuse him by saying "it's not his will at that moment; he answers when he feels like" because Elijah never cared if it's Baal's will to send down fire at that moment when he's testing Baal's prophets!
