Religion / Re: Terrified By Bats: Please Advice Me by topsy1971: 8:46pm On Apr 29, 2013
@OP, there is no spiritual attack and cause for any alarm. Develop your spiritual intuition to receive some advanced supernatural endowment. Bats are special animals possessing both aviarian and mammalian powers. You are being notified of some potentials to transform you to a higher being and obtained spiritual blessings. Bats don't make friends with just anybody except chosen. Based on your faith, pray for God to open your mind to understand your imminent transformation. Could be financial, prophetic,healing etc. Being friendly to the Bats can also help.

You should at least respect a dead man, knowing you will die one day. Tribalism apart, this man deserve respect, even in death. His literary contributions to generations can not be paralleled. RIP Prof.

Properties / Re: . by topsy1971: 8:29pm On Mar 09, 2013
To the best of my knowledge, the house can only be sold with mutual consent of all the concerned and identified children. In this case,the children of the three wives and the identified child. There might be litigation if handled otherwise. In short,where there is no will,mutual agreement is necessary.

Why are you a member of this forum when you are scared to share meaningful and sensible contributions with members? Nairaland continues to grow on daily basis because people learn about new things and get exposed to variuos opinion.
My fear for Brazil is that fundamentalist groups will soon spring up and terrorism will be ushered in. The once peaceful country might lose her tranquility. No offense to anybody, this is just my opinion. Afterall we can see it everywhere.
Business / Re: Can Entrepreneurship Be Truly Taught? by topsy1971: 11:26pm On Feb 28, 2013
Enterpreneurship can be taught and needed be taught. This exposes the student to basic knowledge required. The success of the student however is determined by other factors such as environment,determination,doggedness and self confidence.Ability to identify enterprenuership opprtunities around you requires indepth thinking and sometimes, the sixth sense. People live amidst potential wealth without realising it. Even out of chaos and abnormal situations you can evolve successful enterpreneurship breakthrough. This is where the initial learning comes to usefulness.

More facts:
1.A snake can smell its prey 5 kilometres away, and proceed towards the direction of smell.
2.The egrets(Lekeleke) can never be eaten by crocodile. the egret feed on leftover meat in the croc mouth, thereby serving as toothpick.

Religion / Re: Did Cain Have A Wife And Children? by topsy1971: 8:12pm On Jan 20, 2013
I believe God created other people after creating Adam and Eve. The Bible probably focussed on Adam's family since the lessons and history to be learnt relates more to them. Cain must have married from the other people created by God after Adam and Eve.

Culture / Re: Where Are The Powers Of Our Traditional Rulers? by topsy1971: 9:06pm On Jan 16, 2013
This is a good post. The kings have soiled their thrones through politics, corruption, treachery and debauchery. You remember Abacha era when some monarchs were flocking abuja to support illegal Shonekan interim government just for money. It is logical: when you wine and dine with falsehood, you loose the priviledge granted for sacred powers. Some kings are still strong spiritually. I can still say Alaafin of Oyo, Awujale of Ijebu and Osemawe of Ondo are highly didnified Kings who still enjoy intimacy with the Orisas due to their steadfastness when it comes to standing by the truth.
