Romance › Re: Should I Marry The Lady That Loves Me Or The Lady I Love by Vado(m): 6:17pm On Oct 16, 2014
Dude it's an important question you ask. I also ponder on this sometimes, you have some girls breaking their necks just to have you when you on the other hand, don't feel that strong attraction for them. Such ladies are often of solid and amiable character so deep down conflicting thoughts pop in your head like "dude, what if this is your destined wife" "don't miss out on such a good person" etc.

Well you eventually solve the puzzle op, cc me.

Christianity Etc › Re: Would You Denounce Your Faith For 100 Million Naira? by Vado(m):
simpleseyi:
Which faith are you people talking about? You are a Christian only because you are born in Eastern Nigeria or in Western Nigeria or in Europe or America. If you were born by parents who are Sokoto indigenes, you will be a Muslim today.

If Pope Francis was born in Saudi Arabia by Saudi indigenes, today he will be a Muslim. Also, if the king of Saudi Arabia and the Sheikh of Qatar were born in Owerri by Catholic parents, today they will both be staunch Catholics.

These religious bigots are just over the whole place. The whitemen brought their religions to colonize us. Imaging so-call Christian missionaries capturing our fore-fathers, chaining them down and transporting them to whiteman's land to work as slave. And you call them missionaries of God. The same way Usmand Dan Fodio waged war in the North in order to capture the North in the name of Islam even when Northern Nigeria by then was already practicing Islam. The whitemen came to tell us that our gods are evil and their god is good, yet the God the exported to us killed more people in the Bible and the Quran than the people all our gods (ogun, sango, obatala, oya, amadioha, okija e.t.c.) put together have been accused of killing.

I am a Muslim because I was born into Islam, my wife is a Christian because she was born into Christianity. We are happy together. You all practice one religion or the other because you were born into it. How many of us researched into all the religions of the world before concluding that the one you currently practice is the best. You cannot just have idea about one thing and say that it is the best in the world, until you compare and contract it with all others. ogun and sango worshipers are living peacefully with each other and you tell me that Christians and Muslims that are also at each others throat are better than ogun and sango worshippers.
Nice attempt at being logical but even at that, your points are flawed. Not everyone belongs to a faith just because they were born into it. There are converts, there are those literally coerced into a particular religion.

To the topic, I would tell the giver to shove the money up his a$$.

Politics › Netanyahu Tells UN ISIS And Hamas Are 'branches Of The Same Poisonous Tree' by Vado(op): 9:24am On Oct 03, 2014
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu compared his country's recent bombing campaign in Gazato the US-led strikes against militants in Iraq and Syria, saying Hamas and the Islamic State group share the same goal of world domination.
Addressing the UN General Assembly on Monday, Netanyahu accused Hamas of committing "the real war crimes" in Gaza by using Palestinian civilians as human shields. It was an angry response to Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas' speech to the UN last week in which he accused Israel of conducting a "war of genocide" in Gaza.
Netanyahu railed against world leaders who have condemned Israel for its war with Hamas while praising President Barack Obama for attacking Islamic State militants and other extremists in Syria and Iraq.
They "evidently don't understand that ISIS and Hamas are branches of the same poisonous tree," the Israeli prime minister said, referring to the Islamic State group by one of its acronyms.
Netanyahu said the leaders of ISIS and Hamas share the same goal of imposing militant Islam on the world.
"Hamas' immediately goal is to destroy Israel, but it has a broader objective," he said. "When it comes to its ultimate goals, Hamas is ISIS, and ISIS is Hamas."
And turning to another regional rival, Netanyahu said Iran's concern about the spread of terrorism is "one of history's greatest displays of doubletalk." He criticised the efforts of six world powers to reach a nuclear deal with Iran, saying, "to defeat ISIS and leave Iran as a potential nuclear power is to win the battle and lose the war."
On the latest war in Gaza, Netanyahu questioned how Israel can be accused of genocide when it gave advance warning to Gaza civilians before attacks on neighborhoods.
Holding up an image of what he said was a Hamas rocket launcher with children nearby, he said Hamas hid rockets in schools and homes and used civilians as human shields.
Israel "was doing everything to minimise civilian casualties. Hamas was doing everything to maximise civilian casualties," he said.
During the 50-day Gaza war, which ended Aug. 26, Israel launched thousands of airstrikes against what it said were Hamas-linked targets in the densely populated coastal territory, while Gaza militants fired several thousand rockets at Israel. More than 2,100 Palestinians were killed, the vast majority civilians, and some 18,000 homes were destroyed, according to UN figures. Sixty-six soldiers and six civilians were killed on the Israeli side.
In his speech Friday, Abbas stopped short of saying he would pursue war crimes charges against Israel. He said he would ask the UN Security Council to dictate the ground rules for any talks with Israel, including setting a deadline for an Israeli withdrawal from Palestinian lands.
Earlier Monday, Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said it's clear that Abbas has no intention of making peace with Israel, calling his speech to world leaders last week "a message of hatred and incitement."
Lieberman also questioned Abbas' legitimacy to speak on behalf of the Palestinian people, saying he doesn't control the Gaza Strip, where Hamas remains in charge of security and elections have been postponed for more than four years.
Lieberman said Abbas has "lost his way."
Mohammed Ishtayeh, an aide to Abbas, responded to Lieberman's comments, saying: "If Lieberman and his government seek peace, why they are building settlements on our land? They left no land without settlements, no land for the Palestinians to live in."
Ishtayeh added: "Lieberman was trying to cover the war crimes his government committed in Gaza, but we have prepared the indictment list to take Israel to the ICC," using the acronym for the International Criminal Court. "
The 57-nation Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the world's largest bloc of Islamic countries, has been lobbying Abbas to seek membership in international agencies, including the ICC. That would open the door to war crimes charges against Israel for its military actions in Gaza and Jewish settlement construction on West Bank land the Palestinians want for a future state.
However, Abbas' speech last week made no mention of a bid to join the International Criminal Court or a deadline for ending the occupation.

Family › Re: Any Woman That Can't Cook Is Highly Irresponsible. by Vado(m): 3:17pm On Oct 01, 2014
Think the op chose a bad adjective but I get his point though. Cooking is an essential feature and let not kid ourselves, naturally, it's a perogative of a woman. It's evident even in the animal world. Don't know why naija feminists be getting unnecessarily defensive and fighting a lost cause as if we are their adversaries. Even in the West, they haven't taken civilization foolishly this far. This is not "Us versus You", this is "You versus Nature" and I wish ya'll goodluck in that campaign.

Politics › India Becomes First Asian Nation To Reach Mars Orbit. by Vado(op): 5:57pm On Sep 24, 2014
NEW DELHI — India became the first Asian nation to reach the Red Planet when its indigenously made unmanned spacecraft entered the orbit of Mars on Wednesday — and the first nation in the world to successfully reach Mars on its first attempt.

The spacecraft called “Mangalyaan,” or “Mars-craft” in Hindi, which was launched last November, slowed down just enough to reach orbit early Wednesday, securing India a place in the elite global space club of Martian explorers.

Images of beaming scientists clapping and hugging each other at the command center in the southern city of Bangalore were shown live in a nationally televised broadcast after a breathless, nail-biting countdown during the spacecraft’s final leg.

Over an hour after reaching the orbit, the space agency received the first photographic data of the red planet’s terrain which were transmitted via an antenna located in Canberra, Australia.

Calling it the “national pride event,” the Indian Space Research Organization also showed it live on Facebook and Twitter.

swtdrms: Bros, i thnk it'l help if u re-read wat u wrote previously....
Where there is an option for a young, vibrant, purposeful individual in the person of fash, Oshomole etc, why must octogenarians keep popping up wasting time on unrealistic ambitions thinking they are the only ones perfect for the job. What's wrong with grooming, investing and endorsing underdogs that can really pose a threat for that position if the intentions were to come together and really save this sinking ship of ours. They said we should ignore the religion factor yet they can't even tolerate themselves in their coven by giving equal opportunities to presidential materials in their midst. We all know apc is zoning that thing to the north, don't well?

Baba I think you need that couch more than I do. Guess you missed the part where I said I voted for ribadu (a fulani) against this same Goodluck in 2011. I was never hoodwinked with all that "I had no shoes" or him being a Christian as well, I opted for a muslim so kindly miss me with your bs.
Politics › Re: A Buhari / Fashola Candidacy 2015 by Vado(m): 1:38pm On Sep 20, 2014
I'd vote for Fashola (a muslim) a million times just as I did for Nuhu Ribadu in the last election because he has proven his competence. He is an epitome of a modern administrator and he stands out among his peers.
My point now is, why can't buhari and the northern populace rise above chronic ambition and tribalism and let this yoruba guy lead us? You can't be telling me that a muslim-muslim ticket is ok for the progress of the country yet you won't give the best man among you the job. It's hypocritical.

Too many uneducated dolts on this thread. Do you seriously think the statement "So help me God" in question is a reference to Jehovah of Christians?
I do not agree with the punishment melted on that soldier. It was more like a breach of contract knowing fully well that he signified "none" as his religion before.
The USA was built as a free society so if they want to continually sell that liberal society thing to the world, they ought not have a problem with that soldier. US was never a Christian country so atheists should please spare us the gibberish and shots.

khiaa: Introducing yourself to someone you are attracted to is not losing your self esteem, it takes a very confident woman to do that. Somehow they confused having a conversation with throwing yourself at him, go figure.
You are kinda right. Initiating a convo doesn't translate to throwing oneself at a guy though. It needn't be too forward like "hey my name is A & I would like to know you" lol. Sound conversations with a fine chemistry between the two often naturally take the "I just sent you a PM route"

I can't speak for all but I fancy a lady who knows what she wants. Diff strokes for diff folks nonetheless.
