Words are meant to convey a meaning and so everyone knows sin is usually an offence or doing something immorally wrong or bad. So has only fans led people to commit sin? Yes. So he is right and your futile attempt to shift bad to mean evil, o girl, e no work. |

RichBoy247: . A married man can have another wife and many more wives just as our forefathers Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Job, Solomon who are indisputable men of God, but a married man should not be sleeping with other men’s wives like King David and other men’s wives too should not be sleeping around like the adulterous woman that Jesus rescued See yourself? How can you put Isaac and then Job who God called perfect in that group eh? Then for Abraham did you not see he sent the women away? Then Jacob's own was due to the trickery of Laban and not intentional at the beginning? For Moses, his wife had left him so his is a remarriage. Solomon of course fell out of God's favour and was rejected by God. |
Romance › Re: Why “What Goes Around Comes Around” Is Mostly Wishful Thinking by vdestro: 7:40am On Feb 12 |
Dpsychologist: “What goes around comes around.”
It sounds poetic. Balanced. Fair.
It tells us that life keeps score. That goodness is rewarded and wickedness punished. That the universe is quietly running a moral accounting system in the background.
But step outside motivational quotes and look at the real world. The idea collapses quickly.
Good people get blindsided by illness. Honest workers lose jobs. Loyal partners get cheated on. Corrupt politicians grow richer. Fraudsters build empires. Abusive men and women sometimes live long, comfortable lives.
If karma were automatic and mechanical, the world would look very different.
Let us separate emotion from logic.
The concept of karma comes from ancient Indian philosophy tied to reincarnation. In that system, consequences may unfold across lifetimes. Most people quoting “what goes around comes around” are not even referring to that framework. They mean something simpler. Be good and good things will happen to you soon. Be bad and punishment will follow quickly.
There is no evidence that life operates like that.
Now, here is where many people get confused.
There are consequences in life. But consequences are not cosmic revenge. They are patterns of cause and effect.
If you drink and drive repeatedly, your odds of crashing or being arrested increase. If you train daily, your skill improves. If you insult your boss, you risk being fired.
Those are probabilities tied to behavior.
That is not karma. That is cause and effect.
Karma suggests moral balance. Cause and effect describes risk, timing, and human systems.
The two are not the same.
Let us talk about relationships, since that is where this belief is heavily used.
We are told that if you treat someone well, they will treat you well in return. That loyalty guarantees loyalty. That kindness secures affection.
Anyone who has lived long enough knows this is not guaranteed.
People cheat on kind partners. People disrespect generous lovers. People leave stable relationships for chaos. On the flip side, some toxic individuals attract attention and admiration for years.
This does not mean being cruel is a winning strategy. It means human attraction is complex. It involves psychology, insecurity, confidence, timing, scarcity, social proof, emotional volatility. It is not a moral scoreboard.
Some individuals respond strongly to dominance. Others respond to warmth. Others respond to mystery. Reducing all of that to “good treatment equals good outcome” is childish thinking.
Another reason people cling to karma is emotional survival.
If someone betrays you, it hurts deeply. Saying “what goes around comes around” gives you relief. It restores a sense of justice. It helps you sleep.
But psychological comfort does not equal objective truth.
History proves this again and again.
Some criminals escape justice. Some innocent people are imprisoned. Some dictators die peacefully in luxury. Some hardworking people die unknown and broke.
Randomness exists. Timing exists. Luck exists. Power structures exist.
Pretending otherwise keeps you naive.
Now, let me be clear.
Rejecting karma does not mean embracing immorality.
It means understanding that the universe does not automatically reward you for being decent. Being ethical is a choice rooted in your values, reputation, long term strategy, and self respect. Not because the sky will strike your enemies for you.
If you live recklessly, patterns will catch up with you through probability and human systems. If you live wisely, your odds improve. But there are no guarantees.
Life is not a vending machine. Insert goodness. Receive blessing.
It is a chaotic mix of decisions, incentives, power, biology, economics, and chance.
The real danger of believing in automatic karma is passivity.
You may tolerate disrespect thinking the universe will fix it. You may avoid strategic thinking because you believe justice is automatic. You may refuse to protect yourself because you assume moral balance is inevitable.
It is not.
Justice requires systems. Reputation requires strategy. Success requires competence. Protection requires awareness.
Shit happens. That is not pessimism. It is realism.
The mature mindset is this:
1. Do good because it aligns with who you are and increases your long term odds. 2. Avoid harm because consequences are probabilistic, not magical. 3. Protect yourself because fairness is not guaranteed. 4. Stop waiting for cosmic revenge to fix your problems.
“What goes around comes around” is a beautiful sentence. I call it The Karma Comfort Blanket. It is just not a reliable operating system for real life. I was expecting this piece from you. Now as Ecclessiates says "because sentence for an eve ill work is not speedily executed,..." so now you have come to say what goes around comes around does not work  Because Justice takes its time does not mean it has been denied hence the law principle "Justice delayed is not Justice denied". I have been long in this world to see that Justice comes for all no matter how long it takes and whatever form it chooses to present itself but surely it comes. I just heard of the brutal unaliving of a friend's uncle who repeatedly reaped (shooked) her when she was little, living with him. How was he unalived? He was shooked repeatedly with an object while walking on the streets. And immediately I heard it both of us looked at each other for we knew Justice had come for him even if it took 40 or so long years. I can't even begin to go into my own personal experiences but you are not the first nor shall you be the last to wish Justice away however Justice comes for all, no matter how long it takes its time strolling down to you. |
Romance › Re: Cheating Is Not Enough Reason To Leave A Man — Woman Sparks Debate by vdestro: 7:05am On Feb 12 |
Rutherinspace: This is a very faulty reasoning but I'm not surprised because it's regurgitated in different forms.
The claim that all men are “created” to cheat is not biology — it’s justification.
Yes, men can feel attraction to multiple women. But attraction is not the same as action.
Human beings are not animals ruled by impulse. We have: Self-control, moral reasoning, and Empathy. The ability to choose long-term stability over short-term pleasure
If “natural desire” excused behavior, then anger would justify violence, and greed would justify theft. Society exists because adults control impulses.
Plenty of men feel attraction and still choose loyalty. That proves it is a decision, not a biological destiny.
The claim that faithful men are either extremely religious, or too poor/unattractive to cheat is insulting to men and tells a lot about your personality.
Many financially successful, attractive, socially powerful men remain faithful. Not because they lack options — but because they value integrity and emotional peace
I always say it loudly. The family defines society - if a man cannot keep to a simple commitment to a woman, how can the same man fulfill political promises to society?
In environments where men are praised for cheating, more will cheat. In environments where integrity is respected, more men remain faithful.
This shows its cultural conditioning — not biological inevitability.
Behavior is shaped by upbringing, peer influence, and cultural norms. I have many male friends who are financially successful and stick with their wives. I tell everyone extra marital affairs is expensive and not worth it.
Please, let's reject such lazy, backward thinking in favor of accountability and open communication.

Saleslourd: your story hits close man but here’s the thing – I wasn’t waiting because I didn’t see her, I just valued her more than rushing anything.
Or maybe If to say I chop inside matter for balance You did nothing wrong. You connected to her on a soul/deep level but not sexually. She saw it as something was wrong with her and locked up. Not your fault. Now meeting you years later, she saw an opportunity to feel better about herself now that in her mind you now think her good enough to date. It's nothing to beat yourself over, just understand and move on. |

APOSTLECHUMA: BIBLE POINT, THERE IS NO BIBLE VERSE THAT SUPPORTS DIVORCE BASED ON ADULTERY AND MANY DONT KNOW THIS, [b]DIVORCE WAS ONLY APPROVED FOR THE CAUSE OF FORMICATION [/b]AND MANY DONT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE. JESUS PREACHED FORGIVENESS IN MATTHEW 18 BEFORE MATTHEW 19 WHERE HE PREACHED ON MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE. WHAT THE PHARISEES HEARD FROM.HIM MADE THEM TO CONCLUDE THAT MARRIAGE WAS NOT WORTH ENTERING INTO BECAUSE JESUS DIDNT APPROVE DIVORCE THERE BASED ON ADULTERY BUT FOR FORNICATION AND A MARRIED MAN OR WOMAN DONT COMMIT FORNICATION. Awon fake apostles don drop quote. As if you don't know that Jesus was referring to sexual immorality whether called Fornication in kjv or sexual immorality in esv and some other bibles.

Celebrities › Re: Singer Kizz Daniel Reportedly Converts From Christianity To Islam by vdestro: 9:00am On Jan 01 |
tanigororo: What you are referring to was the Jewish Law, except you are a Jew. Jesus happens to be a Jew not a Christian, Jesus never marry and never encourage marriage why marry when your founder didn't marry or establish marriage? Did Jesus not say He did not come to destroy the Law? So the Law still stands. And since the Law stands there is nothing more to be said or done. So Jesus does not need to say or do anything more for the Law which He expressly said He did not come to destroy has spoken already which is marriage is permitted. And then to further seal it, did Jesus not repronounce the Law on marriage when asked by the Pharisees about Divorce? Did He not say "He made them male and female and for this cause man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife and the two shall be one flesh?" See that even the Pharisees them knew marriage was allowed so they did not ask him if marriage is permitted but about if Divorce which takes place after marriage, is allowed. Thus effectively providing an opportunity for Jesus to restate the Law on marriages. So all you have said is thrashed! Then on Jesus marrying, this is the most stupendous thing I have heard. Is He man? Is it not man that was made male and female? Is it not man that marriage was instituted for? Is it not for man that it was said a man shall leave his father and mother and cling to his wife and the two shall be one flesh? So because Jesus came down from His place in heaven to become man for man's sake so therefore He should forget that even though he has taken up the clothing ( body) of man, he is still the Son of God sent from heaven and not man who He came to save? He should go about marrying and forgetting Himself and His place like the sons of God who saw women and went in onto them right? Wow  what a mind. Like I said you people must be eating something that drains any iota of sense ha! |

Bakrabas: Are you saying that you know bible more than the pastors that married more than one wives Prophet Joseph Apata openly practice it as well as Joseph Smith (the founder of Latter-day Saints Movement) So because they call themselves pastors they have more sense than you who even can read for himself and see that they are obviously the same people who Jesus had told us would come, false prophets/pastors. This is stupendous! |

No be something your pastors are practicing steadily and getting standing ovation from followers See person talk! When did Christianity allow one wife and side chicks eh?
