Christianity EtcRe: 5-6 Churches On A Building. Religious House Of Commotion It Is! by yfo: 1:09pm On Oct 20, 2013
sunny3kng: People please I beg you all, watch what you all say. If you like it or not, those places are the houses of God. Who has appointed you guys to judge ? Isn't it more wonderful to see churches spring up everywhere, When we know they are all to the Glory of the father.
A word is Enough for the wise, watch your words against God's anointed and his house of worship. Thank you
This goes out to all those supporting this utter state of confusion.

Most people on this thread haven't said anything against christianity as a whole but of the excesses exhibited by the so-called men of God. Christianity as a way of life and religion is great but it doesn't mean we should turn a blind-eye when some people are leading its name down the wrong part.

Now that we have more churches around, we seem to have more and more sinners/hypocrites also...if all the new churches have visions and mandates from God and not mostly motivated by greed, why can't we see the difference in our day to day lives of Nigerians living a Christ-filled life as that is the main purpose of a church. This is roughly equivilent to a having alot of duplicate offices/branches of a single corporation and yet having no effect on the effectiveness/success rate on the reason the corporation was set-up (raison d'etre).

Why can't we have a single church or two serving a whole area/street but we have cases of up to 13 on a street as a poster above pointed out, God is not an author of confusion and yet what is on show before us today in most places.

Lastly, how do you want to bring converts into the fold when you have such cases as listed above and some churches playing instruments (sometimes blaring through speakers) in residential areas for the sake of a vigil.





I think its right to support Christianity as a religion but not when it showcases acts of certain excesses (practiced by some 'men of God') that make even non-christians question the God we serve.

olrotimi: I read thru many posts here & i realise y we are whr we are as a nation. Its d same reasn y GEJ wld convincingly win nxt yrz election(nt by rigging bt by our votes); its d same reasn y we wld line up along d highway to welcome a politician who has jus served hez jail term for stealing our money; its d same reason y our modas wld sing and dance unda d rain to see off our 1st lady @d airport for peanuts; its d same reason y dozens wld die every year frm stampede to receive what is rightfuly theirs frm the sarakis; its d same reason y hundreds wld rush to their obvious death every yr in d name of scooping fuel frm vandalisd pipelines, waiting to xplode;its d same reason y every misfortune including daily massacre up north & theiving by politicians is an act of God & shld be left to God; its d same reason y we are called Nigeria & its d same reason i love my country Nigeria.
bro, the simple import of what u saying is that Nigerians are stupid and gullible and you just trying to use pretty words and your last line as a smoke-screen.

yes, FIFA have their method for ranking but because there is a system in place doesn't mean it can't be criticised. A couple of years ago, we were ranked 9th in the world and even we Nigerians criticised such a lofty position as we felt we didn't merit it so you can see we don't just cry foul without thinking.
The english climbed to sixth and even their country men (civilised people compared to Nigerians no doubt in your books) criticised the FIFA rankings so please don't look at this as a strictly Nigerian problem or mentality.

RomanceRe: Pretty Girls Don't Get Asked Out...true Or Myth by yfo: 11:32am On Oct 17, 2013
Well this is an interesting topic.
my theory is that most pretty ladies are used to getting wooed by "big boys/men" and get used to certain things that the average guy can't provide hence sticking to a certain standard.
The average guy already has a bunch of beliefs about pretty girls and then plucks up courage to try his luck a certain time....only to get shut down by one of them and hence he forms an opinion on ALL the pretty girls, goes back to gist/warn his other average friends who now have "proof" to back up their beliefs and so a cycle of 'inaccurate' information is born and passed to loads of average guys.

scenario 2:
An average guy finally gets a pretty lady that is open-minded but keeps seeing the kind of men that flock around her, this brings out the alpha-male competitive spirit (with guys that probably don't know he exists) and sensing he can't provide the things she can get from the 'big boys' she hangs around with he develops an inferiority complex (or something similar)
This would most likely break the relationship and the pretty gal assumes all average guys are like this so she decides to stick with the big boys/men that don't have such issues.


I'm sure there are other scenarios but I think these are the two common ones.

ogugua88: Nigerians and pessimism lol.

Of course a Nigerian man can serenade a woman. Are all women worthy of being serenaded? The answer is an emphatic no. Nigerian men can be very romantic, just that not everyone deserves to be romanced. No time for wasted efforts.

When he meets that angel wey dey do am sometini (sometini sometini), you'd be surprised. Serenading go be beans.

Those of you saying no and complaining about Nigerian men, you won't be serenaded anytime soon lol. And for men wey dey complain of babes, you go dey continue to jam jezebels.

#TeamOptimism
When the guy meets like 10 jezebels before landing the angel.....spirit of romantism don wash from d guy system cheesy

RomanceRe: Patriarchy - 'The Male Privilege' by yfo: 8:56am On Oct 16, 2013
De Beauvoir: @y-fo, there are so many things wrong with this your post but I don't want to address them all because have lost interest in this thread.
@bold, a married couple should consult each other when they want to take decisions regarding their children or decisions that affect the both of them, there shouldn't be a monopoly of decision making in the house, if the man wants something, he should tell his wife and vice versa.
I am sure the only reason you advocate that men should be entitled the sole duty or responsibility of leadership is because your God demanded it in your Bible.
That is also the same reason many women on this thread want male leadership in the home; because they think that is what god wants and not because that is what the women themselves would like.

Take it or leave it, nobody wants to be 'ruled over' and nobody wants to be dominated, the authors of your Bible had to claim thatmale leadership is a directive from god (who would punish those who went against the rules), that's why women appear to agree with it.
You wouldn't find any woman who does not follow a patriarchal religion saying that she wants to be ruled over.
You right bout the loss of interest.
Anyways, I feel it all boils down to our difference of opinion bout the gender-specific (or should I say 'speciality') roles issue and not the christianity ish (I'm not a particularly fervant believer)....I can't speak on behalf of others that share my view though.

Enjoyed the debate and have a wonderful day/night.

Wu Zetian: You keep on naming the few female privileges that has nothing to do with my questions. The only biological "advantage(note the advantage is in quotes) males have over females is physical strength. I wonder how that makes them better household leaders in today's society?? undecided



How are women more emotional?? Why are women more emotional?? You are terribly misinformed and most of your points aren't well thought-out. Is anger, sadness, happiness not emotions?? What research did you base your opinion off on, is this a scientific proof?? What was the basis of measuring, where was the survey carried out, what part of the brain was examined?

Your arguments are pretty generic and they hold no weight. At least you have passed the first stage of progress, you have accepted your problems - you are sexist and chauvinistic. I hope you'll find motivation to fix them.

(It's not about you being swayed easily or not, it's about me valuing my sleep more.)
I can't continue going round in circles explaining myself after I have done so in the other thread in more detail...

You really do have a problem when people have a different opinion than yours, which is a sign of a pretty shallow person.
*newsflash* not everyone would share your beliefs and while I don't agree with some of your views, I have never stated you have a problem for holding a different opinion than mine.
