MadeBoy:She just extended her lockdown since government had extended the lockdown. The mistake you made is letting her extend her stay beyond the usual weekend you mentioned. Maybe it's high time to sit her down and explain the financial stuff with her. Even businesses are affected throughout the world. Meanwhile, exercise patience even if she's rude but tell her the truth about what's going on. |
it's 11.16pm now and the moon is at its peak forming the shape of the cross in my location at Akure. I started observing it few minutes to 11pm. God is indeed great. Few days to Easter. You can check at your location too if you'll see what I'm seeing. Long beams of light from the centre of the moon to the four cardinal points- NORTH, EAST, SOUTH and WEST. My camera couldn't capture the long beams even when we used another phone. Beautiful sight to behold.

Why did humans start wearing pants? To answer this question it’s important to understand two things - first, what were the earliest forms of clothing and how did they evolve into pants and secondly, why did a need for pants develop? It is also helpful to define what is meant by pants - specifically a bifurcated garment for the bottom half of the body which covers from waist to the lower leg. This definition helps to differentiate from the earlier leggings which were often pieces of cloth or skins which were wrapped around the legs and then tied on with straps. Leggings were comprised of two separate garments. Ötzil the Ice Man, perhaps the most famous archaeological find of prehistoric human remains from the northern regions, was found wearing leggings. Earliest Origins From archaeological evidence, it is known that the earliest types of clothing were wrap skirts or aprons for both genders. The oldest known woven example is a fragment made from woven reeds found in Armenia and dating from approximately 2900 BCE. While this is just a fragment the construction hints to what the complete style would have looked like with a waistband woven in the opposite direction from the skirt. This is likely stylistically based off of earlier versions made from hides which do not survive to the modern day. Even earlier examples were of so-called string skirts which were comprised of a waistband with strings or pieces of grass hanging down - these skirts often tied like an apron and depictions can be found in art dating back nearly 20,000 years. In the present day this style is still seen in southeast Asian and other countries, for example, the sarong, a traditionally unisex garment. In colder climates, these could be paired with the previously mentioned leggings and a T-shaped tunic. These are all very simple garment that requires limited construction and materials. [1] The development of pants came alongside the domestication of horses and served as an indicator of class and profession. People who rode horses needed to have a way of protecting their legs and remaining clothed as a simple wrap garment would not remain on the body. Some early variants involved using the same single pieces of cloth and tying it through the legs to create trousers. Horses were. initially domesticated in Central Asia sometime between 3500 and 3000 BCE. Horses were a signifier of prestige, and in many cultures horses and the equipment used in riding them or in using them to drive chariots were included in the tombs of the elite. In these earliest horse riding cultures then trousers, as a form of clothing connected to horses, also served as a sign of prestige. [2] The earliest existing pair of pants was found in China and dates to around 1000 BCE - within 1000 years of the time when it is believed horses were initially domesticated. These pants are constructed of wool with legs made of multiple panels. Experts believe due to the construction style of these garments that they were designed specifically for horseback riding rather than for warmth or protection from the underbrush. These garments show a more complex pieced construction than those tunics and skirts, with far more small parts stitched together instead of being a simple wrap or comprised of two simple shapes sewn to one another. These were garments which were specifically designed for a task rather than to protect the wearer from the elements. [3] In this way, pants helped to define a class and social divisions, as wearing them visually identified the wearer with the tasks which they completed. While the development of horseback riding led to the immediate beginnings of pants they were not instantly accepted as a garment across the entire world at that time. Instead, they spread gradually and often faced challenges among cultures that considered themselves more “civilized" than those who were wearing pants. Development in the Western World Scythian warriors, both male, and female, from Central Eurasia, are depicted wearing tight fitting trousers in Greek art dating from the 6th centuries BCE. [4] Similar styles, consisting of a tunic and trousers have been found surviving in tombs. The Greeks wore a wrapped garment, the chiton, and viewed the wearing of trousers as something done by foreigners and females - some historians believe that the Amazons of Greek myth were at least partially based off of the female warriors of the Scythians. In these myths, the trousers come to stand as just one of the ways these warriors buck tradition. [5] In the Roman world, the toga was the typical wrap garment for men on formal occasions. Casual wear consisted of a tunic. Earlier members of the military didn’t wear trousers, seeing them as effeminate like their Greek predecessors - however, the combination of being defeated by the trouser wearing Teutons, continued northern exploration, and increased usage of cavalry. The spread of the Romans also helped in spreading trousers throughout much of the area where they conquered. Many of these areas were at that point still wearing the separate leggings with a tunic and mantle - normally made of heavy wool. [6] Men Wearing Pants in the Modern Era After pants were accepted by the Romans they became a more standard mode of dress across the Western world. As centuries went on it became those who did not wear pants who stood out, such as Scottish soldiers who wore kilts into battle up into the 20th century. Even as in previous civilizations pants had served as a designator of completing a specific task for the upper class of later Western civilizations they serve to show modernity and how the wearer fits the mold of masculinity. By being prepared to carry out physical activities and not being constrained by tight clothing or billowing robes, new fashions showed a change in the cultural mindset as to what was appropriate for these men to accomplish. To show how this change occurred it helps to look at the specific cases of Imperial Russia and Regency England. [7] As part of a mission to drag Russia into what he viewed as the modern world Peter the Great issued a decree, in 1701, on modern clothing stating that upper-class men were to follow these guidelines in regard to attire - “The upper dress shall be of French or Saxon cut, and the lower dress and underwear-[including] waistcoat, trousers, boots, shoes, and hats- shall be of the German type." This replaced the previous style of floor length caftans. The pants mentioned in this decree were the knee breeches popularized at the time by the French court. In forcing the Russian court to adopt Western styles, Peter I used clothing to highlight the larger societal change efforts which he was putting into place within the country. [8] The final victory for trousers over breeches in England and those nations which looked to England for fashion was the rise of the popularity of the menswear suit as known today, heavily influenced by Beau Brummell in the early 1800s. Brummell popularized a style characterized by simplicity and good tailoring, in contrast to the most flamboyant styles of previous decades. Previous styles had featured tight fitting knee-breeches and stockings along with heeled shoes, styles which showcased the wearers high rank in that they were not practical for doing a vigorous physical activity. [9] On the other hand, the style brought to the forefront by Brummell with both its looser long trousers and flat boots and shoes allowed the wearer to participate in more activities matching a social change in the concept of masculinity. He also preferred dark colors, normally black with a white shirt, over the bright colors worn previously. This style was adopted by upper-class men and became the norm for western society through to modern day. Conclusion The development of pants allowed for a greater range of freedom and movement. While this initially was just for the warrior and lower classes, specifically the males in many societies, over history the wearing of pants has come to symbolize not only a necessity of movement (as seen when worn by warriors or working peasants) but the choice to be active and to enjoy physical freedoms. Wearing pants showed cultural and societal changes not only in the ideas of what is masculine and what is feminine but also in what is expected of all members of society. |
ebukajay184:Most of our men of God do not know the history behind wearing trousers by both gender. It was not speculated in the Bible that a man or women should wear suit but we wear them. From achival records, male and female wore tunic and robes and with time trousers were designed for male and female and other accessories came into being. Female uses veil in the Bible and not hat. |
WOMEN AND PANTS What does the Bible say about women wearing pants? Well, nothing. You have to remember that pants had not been invented when Deuteronomy 22:5 was written and didn’t start appearing until thousands of years later. However this is not the argument, the argument is that pants were made for men and “belong” to men, and so should not be worn by women. Let’s look at the scripture. Deuteronomy 22:5 A woman shall not wear a man’s garment, nor shall a man put on a woman’s cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God. Now I could get into a long article about the word using in the KVJ word “pertains” and how the word is disputed is the Hebrew word keliy , which can mean either article or vessel or weapon, armor or instrument, which some say this verse is actually talking about women wearing articles of clothing made for war or carrying weapons, but I won’t (note pertaineth is not used in the ESV above). Instead we will use some basic reasoning to look at this scripture in context. If a woman is not to have any article of clothing made for her to wear that was originally made for men, such as pants, then that should pertain to ALL clothing. This should then apply to t-shirts, which were originally made for GI’s in WWII and even more so if you are to take that this scripture is making specific references to garments of war. This rule should also apply to other articles of clothing originally made for men such as baseball caps, team jerseys, work boots and certain styles of coats and jackets. Pants have historically been worn by both men and women in both Eastern and Middle Eastern cultures and have been perfectly acceptable attire for women. In the West when women went into the work force in factories when many of the men went to War, we started to see more women wearing pants because it was more utilitarian than wearing a dress; for the same reasons men wore pants and not skirts. Today it would be obvious if a man wore women’s pants or a woman wore men’s pants because they are made differently. In truth this goes back to the heart and what we are trying to accomplish when we get out of bed and get dressed in the morning. The “thing” doesn’t make us sinful, our hearts do. If we are going to go back to the law, then we cannot take ONLY Deuteronomy 22:5 and ignore the rest of the chapter. We must also take the rest of the chapter and make parapets for our roofs, not sow our vineyards with two kinds of seed, nor plow donkeys and oxen together, and we must make tassels on the four corners of our garments, and certainly we should not mix wool and linen together to make our clothes. Deuteronomy 22:8-12 8 “When you build a new house, you shall make a parapet for your roof, that you may not bring the guilt of blood upon your house, if anyone should fall from it. 9 “You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest the whole yield be forfeited, the crop that you have sown and the yield of the vineyard. 10 You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together. 11 You shall not wear cloth of wool and linen mixed together. 12 “You shall make yourself tassels on the four corners of the garment with which you cover yourself. Some religious groups hold that pants are scripturally and historically equivalent to “girding up the loins like a man” and even go so far as to say that this was “something women did not do”. There are several problems with this line of thinking. First it flies in the face of history, the Bible and it makes the jump that girding one’s loins creates pants. What is girding one’s loins? This was a common phrase similar to “rolling up your selves” and meant to prepare for work. Historically, this was something done by both men and women and not just men. When a man needed freedom to work, run or fight, they would tuck the hem of the tunic into the girdle to gain greater freedom and movement. For women, they would lift the hem of their tunics to help carry heavier or numerous objects or to help them more more freely. In both instances it created shorts, not pants. Does the Bible say that only men girded up their loins? No. Proverbs 31:17 She dresses herself with strength and makes her arms strong. The passage above is the biblical description of the virtuous woman who was ready for work. If we are to argue that girding up ones loins creates pants, then a woman should Biblcally where pants because it makes her Biblically a virtuous woman and who is ready for work. This term was used other times in the Bible in reference to both men and women such as in Ephesians 6:14 and Luke 12:35. Peter also refers to both men and woman in the follow passage asking them to gird up the loins of their minds. 1 Peter 1.13 Wherefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. Sadly people often make jumps in scripture, without considering the Biblical context, the rest of what the Bible says and historical evidence to support their own misguided efforts to justify their traditions. So what does this mean, are we to throw out the law, is grace enough without the law, is legalism a sin? The answer is yes. The New Testament is clear that if you choose to live by the law, you must live by all of the law and not just parts of it. Galatians 5:3-4 3 I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law. 4 You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified[a] by the law; you have fallen away from grace. Jesus came to free us from the law. Ephesians 2: 15-16 15 by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace, 16 and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility. Colossians 2:13-15 13 And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, 14 by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. 15 He disarmed the rulers and authorities[a] and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him.[/blockquote> Justification is no longer through the law, but through the cross; faith that the blood of Jesus is enough. Galatians 2:16 yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified. The law creates self-righteousness, it seeks to avoid sin by blaming our sin on a “thing” rather than on the cause, us. We then try to be our own savior, our own god and manage our sins, instead of giving them over to Jesus Christ so that we can live as overcomers , rather than in condemnation, living in fear and avoiding our sins. Paul says that this makes the cross null and void. This separates us from a true relationship with Jesus, living by faith, and anything that separates us from God is a sin. If you are interested in more of the topic of the law, grace and the power of the cross and what it means to us as Christians, I go into this in more detail in an article called “Power of the Cross ”. |
Human corpses move around ‘significantly’ for a year after death, Scientists discover Foreign , News / BY Rasheed Sobowale The researchers at the Australian Facility for Taphonomic Experimental Research (AFTER) have discovered that dead bodies move “significantly” during the decomposition process. The discovery made at a “human body farm” is likely to change the way death scenes are investigated. Prior to the revelation investigators believed how a body was found was how it died, unless it had been moved post-mortem. Researcher Alyson Wilson used time-lapse cameras to study a cadaver decomposing in the elements outside of Sydney for 17 months. The time-lapse camera would film the bodies at 30-minute intervals giving researchers a clear indication of the decomposition process. ‘What we found was that the arms were significantly moving, so that arms that started off down beside the body ended up out to the side of the body,’ Ms Wilson told ABC News. She said it wouldn’t just help law enforcement in their death investigations but also in disaster investigations and also gave a victim a chance to ‘tell their last story’. Deputy director of AFTER Dr Maiken Ueland said the implications of the discovery would be far-reaching. ‘Knowing that body movement can result from the decomposition process rather than scavengers or original placement will be important when it comes to determining what happened, particularly if this movement is much greater than first believed,’ she said in a DailyMail report. Another important discovery from Ms Wilson’s study was the revelation bodies left in the elements near or in Sydney would mummify under the right circumstances and at any time of the year, according to DailyMail report. The body would also continue to mummify for at least three years. ‘It opens up the entire year for mummification in the correct circumstances, and it stops us from going down the wrong path (in investigations),’ Ms Wilson said. The same site is also used to study animal carcasses in their various stages of decomposition and can also help train up cadaver finding dogs.
