Christianity EtcRe: Why Are Ladies Uncovering Their Heads In Church Nowadays by Tobiustobius: 12:06pm On Oct 18, 2013
How does it concern you? Go to church and listen to the Word, not peer about looking at uncovered female heads. Does the covering (or lack thereof) make them more/less faithful or spiritual? Making nountains out of molehills. Misogyny according to Apostle Paul.
RomanceRe: She Loves Me But She Is Way Taller Than Me... by Tobiustobius: 11:12am On Oct 18, 2013
Yield: The fact that she likes you even though she's taller and you're shorter should tell you that she is not bothered by it. She's proud to tell her friends you're her man too. You've got a girl who accepts you for you and doesn't care about things she knows you have no control over, so don't worry yourself. smiley
Best post on this thread.
I'd have just told him to fix his self-confidence before being involved in relationships.

We're on the same level with war-torn countries. Awesome.

No. Then again, my neighbourhood has hardly had power for weeks, so this is "normal".
HealthRe: Nation Wide Strike By Resident Doctors From 1st October by Tobiustobius: 11:38am On Sep 30, 2013
Ah, yes, the doctor bashing is in full swing. When strike actions have become the only way by which outstanding salaries would be paid, what are the doctors to do? Doctors are human beings, they have kids to feed, bills to pay. How can they be working without pay for months and people are ranting about how inconsiderate they are? Why not rant about how inconsiderate the government is?

And to the people ranting about how doctors don't treat people who cannot pay- NEWSFLASH: This is Africa. When they are treated and get better, they abscond, never settling their bills. The doctors and the hospitals eat the costs. Doctors have been queried or even dismissed for treating patients who didn't pay.

Who in their right mind goes to buy petrol when they have no money in their wallets to pay? How can anyone, in Nigeria today, go to a hospital with no payment plan? Who is supposed to cover the costs? The doctor? How many will (s)he pay for before going bankrupt?

In the developed countries often touted as "free healthcare!", healthcare is not free. Nothing is free. Insurance covers some of the costs, but those not covered by insurance MUST be paid by the patients, or they risk jail time. We have barely reached the level of insurance in this country, so that's still a long way off.

To those who think resident doctors shouldn't be paid: no words for your ignorance.

All these "It's too long, I didn't read it" people sef, advertising their laziness. No wonder they say that if you want to hide something from the black man, put in a book.

What are they celebrating? Is this not joblessness?
PhonesRe: Smartphones And Tablets Harbour More Germs Than A Toilet Seat by Tobiustobius: 6:55pm On Sep 18, 2013
...Which is why I rub my phone, tablet and keys down with methylated spirit and cotton wool about once a week. The article says not to, but it's the best- doesn't damage devices in any way, removes icky micro-organisms, removes those oily finger stains and leaves them looking brand new.
FamilyRe: Girl Kills Her 4-day-Old Son For Prostitution In Katsina by Tobiustobius: 7:17pm On Sep 16, 2013
Maybe she wouldn't be selling herself as a means of livelihood if she had an education. Maybe she wouldn't have gotten pregnant if she had had access to good contraceptive care. Maybe she wouldn't have killed an innocent child if it didn't mean the end of life as she knew it. Maybe she wouldn't have gone down the road she did, if she'd seen a better way.

She is a product of her circumstances. This is the result of poverty and repressive views towards women's reproductive rights.
Christianity EtcRe: The Bible Forbids Tattoos by Tobiustobius: 8:19pm On Sep 15, 2013
People can yell "The Old Testament is still part of the Bible" till they're blue in the face. Anyone who tries to obey all the laws in Leviticus and Deuteronomy... It's impossible, frankly. Might as well lock yourself up in a bunker, not showering or grooming, and consuming only unleavened bread and water.

As an aside, I wonder why I'm even commenting on this normal-ridiculous Sunday thread.

So because he's clutching a bag, he looks gay? Defective cognitive reasoning.

tunshe: If he has a Muslim name,this thread would have accounted for 20,000 views and over 50,000 comments.

Now that he is a Christian,no one is talking about Religion.

SMH for those who hate Islam and Muslims,you better embrace Islam to have an endless bliss.
Hahaha! So hilarious. Points to whoever spots the oxymoron in the last sentence.

People seem to think that Nigerians have a monopoly on certain types of behavior.
Christianity EtcRe: Would You Quit Your Job, If It Affects Church? by Tobiustobius: 3:12pm On Sep 08, 2013
Doctors have to work on Sundays.

If a doctor left his work because of church, s/he'd have a query waiting on Monday.

Will the church feed them? *silly religious threads on Nairaland every Sunday*

opeyemitee: but what could she have done so bad that she had to be killed? It might have been a planned work. She herself needs to be interrogated. I stand to be corrected! Because people cannot just kill with no reason.
My friend, you are very silly. Planned work? Wtf are you on about? "People cannot just kill with no reason"? Which smelly rock do you live under? You obviously have access to the internet, yet you spew this crap.

Christianity EtcRe: Pastor Kumuyi's Son's Apology To Deeper Life (Video & Text) by Tobiustobius: 7:53pm On Jul 02, 2013
oxygen25: Nonsense and rubbish. Are the members mugus? They mentioned cultural differences, but they never did mention it that they know and are aware of the principles, they said they are sorry, but they forgot that they have caused a lotta damage, have they forgotten that they should be role models to others esp. the members. Now they are tendering a letter of apology, medicine after death. To be candid, it is unacceptable cos u guys achieved your aim. Good for you, but one thing that I know is this: it is called hypocrisy, and God hates it, if you know the principles have changed, tell the members, instead of breaking the rule and apologising later.

Since oga at the top pikin could do this, then others should follow suit. Meanwhile, if john could do this when his father is still alive, what will happen, when he(Kumuyi) is gone?

One last thing is this, God is watching us all in 3D.

[quote author=waldigit ]All glory must be to the Lord. Tell u what the whole gamut of human knowledge is a micro size of what we ought to have known let alone what is in the universe.
Tell u what again how can explain optomery behind a saliva mixed with mud and applied to a blind eyes from birth, and the eyes became functional. Belove, a fool says in his heart there is no GOD. There is a better way to solve human myseries if only we are passionate to give it a shot. The way is light years better than mere fretting of the spirit. The way is JESUS. Shalom.[/quote]Zealot.

Christianity EtcRe: What Does The Bible Say About Make-up? by Tobiustobius: 7:51pm On Jun 18, 2013
Eklektika: @OP,*just passing*. However,I remember that there was just 1 woman that the Bible records that painted her face and fixed her hair. What did GOD do? Fed her to the dogs. Paints on the face are a sign of a heathen. Anybody that tells you otherwise,no matter his logic,status,claims to 'christian', is a heathen. Any woman that paints and claims to be a 'christian' is a heathen and ear-marked by GOD as dog-meat. You asked for the bitter truth and this is it.
*Still passing*
Sign of a heathen? Really? Amazing. Really amazing, the sheer amount of crazy in this thread. And we wonder why the world is going down the drain.

To the Christians (air quotes) accusing each other of being slanderers and accusers of the brethren, Nice Work! Really converting all the heathens with your hate.

Sharp eyes to see how a face is too painted or an outfit is immodest, but blindly looking past the beggar on the street, the person in pain. New Age Christianity. Ride on, pastors!
RomanceRe: Marriage Mistakes Women Make That Lead To Divorce. by Tobiustobius: 5:45pm On May 23, 2013
All these misogynistic threads on Nairaland. "Mistakes Women Make..."- the implication being that men are almighty and infallible, never making mistakes that can lead to divorce. Learn how to talk to him, do this and that for him... Whatever happened to treating each other like human beings deserving of love and respect, whether male or female?
People making stupid excuses, saying, Men have natural lapses. Speak for yourself, please.

Oh, and I said "deserve". If you don't like the word, write to Merriam-Webster and ask them to remove it from their dictionary.
