FreedomfromtheT: I am going to die some day. This is one of the most important matters to me because it has eternal consequences. What if I believe that prayers for me after death will work and thus continue in sin and to my chagrin it doesn't? Will there be any remedies?
After you are gone, you are gone forever either to eternal life or eternal doom, no prayers is needed again thereafter. Only that some believe that prayer can change a bad destination after death which I don't believe
Kobojunkie: 1. It is an even better idea to visit reality often as regards many of the rituals we engage in so we do not continue to wallow in the muddy pool of ignorance for longer than is necessary.
So what do you want to achieve with the answer to the question you are looking for
FreedomfromtheT: It is traditional for some religious groups to organize prayers for their dead members. Some relatives of the deceased usually carry the corpse to the place the late person used to worship for prayers. Others offer prayers for the repose of the soul of the dead before internment. Even after burial, some observe 8 days, 40 days, a year prayers etc for God to forgive the sins of the departed one and grant him or her eternal rest. Even some religious adherents who don't believe in praying for the dead would be quick to type RIP to show their love. Do people's prayers really avail after death?
It's not a bad idea to question ideas but it is good for one to mind one's business and focus on important personal matters
Imelaa313: Inequitable distribution of wealth. Adam Smith wondered why some countries a rich and developed while others are poor and underdeveloped. I keep wondering why God did this too. I ask myself why am I still broke(atleast for now) despite been hardworking ? Some are so rich and have almost everything while some are so poor and lack almost everything. As I type this, I am at the mercy of God and anybody who can help these kids of mine. I dnt know how I am going to watch myself & two kids suffering, hungry and having no food to eat that they cried all through the night. Nairalanders, pls help us. I'm in a state of depression. Help my kids pls
It's not God's fault but ours, meanwhile the solution to your not being poor again lies in your hands and in your mind. When you are ready to exit poverty you will go all out to get what you deserve no one will give you anything worthwhile. We are all in an adventure of finding treasures, so it's time for you to get up. Go find the secret to becoming wealth and practice them

Trendygurly: If you were like me thinking Abortion will make your life feel better then you’re in for a depressing ride!!. I terminated a 6weeks old pregnancy because I didn’t want it Hmmmm I was being foolish and hopeless Now I’m so regretting my actions I feel so suicidal and the only way I can cope is by leaving it here. I’m such a selfish demon!!! The gentleman responsible for it accepted it with all his might and Love but because of the demon In me I went ahead to tamper and terminate my a month baby!! I feel sorry for my darling fiancé too cause I don’t deserve him!! He begged me to birth the child and give it to his mum but i vehemently refused !!
I don’t think I can ever recover from this life disastrous act!! My baby was suppose to be due by 28th November 2023 If you ask me why I did what I did I can’t even explain!!
God doesn’t make mistakes.. He knew I needed this child in my life because Apart from my Fiancé nobody cares about me and then he gave me this beautiful creature to love me and care for me and I had the nerve to discard it like a piece of thrash … Ahhhhh Lord have mercy on me !!
The painful part is I don’t even know if the abortion was successful cause the blood I saw wasn’t what the quack nurse that did it for me said!! Now I’m on a cross road whether the abortion was complete or whether I’m still expecting a damaged and disfigured child!!
Please don’t be like me Don’t follow my path I hope I recover from this and if I don’t so be it.
Ask God for forgiveness and also forgive yourself, it's unfortunate you didn't allow a beautiful soul have entry into the world through you, nevertheless forgive yourself. It won't be easy but do your best to do so
booksbo0k: Sorry for the long write up my people, I need advice.
My first son has been behaving somehow in our family, as if he's not part of this family... You and this boy can be in the same house but you might not set your eyes on him once for a whole day. He will be inside his room through out...
He has been telling me that he is currently working on going to rent his own place and live on his own and that if God helps him and he is able to achieve that, He will not have anything to do with our family again and that we will never set eyes on him ever again :[ ...
I would have not been bothered by such statement if it were coming from someone else, I would take it as a bluff. But this my son is someone that normally doesn't call people to check on them, not even us his parents..
When he was in his previous University before he dropped out, this boy can go for months, that is a whole semester stretch without calling anybody to know how you're doing, except you call him or maybe he wants to ask for money for something or school stuff....
We have five children and he is the first, the second and third children are away in University, he and the two last siblings are the only one's with us.. My husband refused him from going to University in a far place instead he gives him transport money to be going to his own University from home everyday...... He and his father don't even talk again except good morning greetings. He is only 21 ohh..
Let me give you guys small back story so that you can understand how all these things started.
My son graduated from secondary school (a boarding school) in 2017 at 16 years old... Initially, he said he wanted to study computer science as he said that was the course he loved and wanted to study. But my husband refused and persuaded him to study pharmacy because he worked at NAFDAC and he saw the way pharmacy graduates were living at his work place and the salary they were recieving. He and one of his chemist friend sweet talked him into going to study the course and I guess it was because he was young then and could not challenge his dad then that was why he gave in....
He wrote JAMB but he did not meet the cut of mark for pharmacy (but I later realised his score was good for computer science then)... No public University was willing to admit him for pharmacy then because his score was not good for the course but due to my husband love for the course and not wanting my son to lose admission that year , he decided to go the way of private University not minding their school fees...Long story cut short, my son got admitted into Madonna University where we were paying 1M naira every year.....After 3 years in the school and in 300L @18 years old, he began saying he was not interested in the school any longer, that he was tired of the course, that he's body is no longer in the school and blablabla that he wants to go and play football in Europe...
He came back for holiday during the beginning of covid and refused to go back to the school when they resumed, saying that he was only wasting our money by being in that school and he did not want to continue.....This got my husband really sad and angry....My son stayed home for almost two years doing nothing because my husband was adamant that if he would not go back to school, nothing for him, that all the money he has spent for school fees in that school can not be for waste that he can become a footballer after he graduates, saying no one can become a successful footballer without being a graduate, that it would later affect them in life...
But my son refused. I must confess, my son is extremely good at playing football. That was the talent i can confidently say that God personally gave to him from birth. Infact when he was graduating from secondary school, they gave him the award for the best graduating footballer and he was always the centre of attention anytime he plays at our church events. He friends used to call him "nima" then, I think...
I and my husband got tired of him staying at home for long so I went to meet with one pastor in our street who was based in the UK with his family but comes home sometimes for church related matters. I explained my son's situation to him and he offered to help my son travel out to chase his football career provided we have the funds for it. The man was secondary school class mates with "victor ikpe ekong" who was a former super eagles player but currently a pastor in Sweden. To my greatest surprise he called him on a WhatsApp video call in my presence and i was really surprised...He gave me the man's phone number to keep in contact and also scheduled a day to meet with my husband and have a discussion.. I told my son and he was very happy..I also told my husband and he was eager to meet with him at least, anything to solve my sons idleness at the time..
The pastor came to my our house on several occasions and discussed with my husband. My husband kept telling the pastor, saying he would like my son to be going to school while chasing his football career at the same time, a feat which pastor let us know would be difficult as one has to be dropped for the other. Unfortunately, my husband changed he's mind and said he was no longer interested in the whole footballer thing. He said he knew that my son wanted to become a footballer only because of girls. That he, my son knew that if he becomes a footballer, all the girls would like him, that that was the only reason he wanted to become a footballer, and that if football was his true destiny, he doesn't need to travel out for it to manifest, that he can be in Nigeria and make it from here.....That was how that chapter close like that. Pastor left for England few months after.....
After years of my son staying at home, my husband got tired. One night, he hired some Street thugs to come take my son away and beat him up...my son stayed with them for 2 weeks. When he returned, he said he was ready to go back to school. But my husband told him he won't be going back to any private University again. My son wrote jamb again to study computer science and was admitted into COOU. but my said he would not allow him go to any University that is not in the same state we are residing. Now the problem here was that all the public schools in the state we are staying will not accept you to study computer science unless you did chemistry in jamb. And my son did not do chemistry in jamb because he is not good in chemistry. If he was to study in the same state we were staying, he had to settle for another course, which he did...Now another problem arose. My husband refused to rent an apartment for my son around the school because the school is considerably far from our house, instead he decided to be giving him money (2000) everyday as transport fare to be going from home. This did not sit down well with my the boy and he again, said he was no longer interested in schooling again sef that he can't be going such far distance from home to the school everyday to study a Course he does not even like siting that it would be stressful and affect his academics and that it was unwise to be paying 60k a year as school fees while you spend 2k everyday as transport..My husband got angry and called on our estate CSO to come pick him up. They beat him so badly in public that when he got back home later in the evening, I went to check him in his room, his buttocks and back where scarred and red with huge marks...
Ever since, he has been going to the school from home and he has become very distant from us especially his dad. They don't talk again in the same house except "good morning sir"...
My son has turned into something else. He can stay indoors from morning till night. I would have said he has started keeping bad company but he does not even have a single friend, not one..Nobody calls him, and he doesn't call anybody...I have five children and he is the first. The second and third already gained admission this year in a private University and are in school currently, so he and he's last two siblings are the only one's with us now..
Why I'm writing this is because I'm scared..I'm beginning to fear that my son might commit suicide, he's beginning to show that kind of attitude.. And the plans he have to leave us forever to go and stay alone, I don't like it ohhhh...
Nairalanders please I need your advice.
Don't be afraid, allow the boy to focus on the football but give him a condition. Meanwhile, I have interest in connecting and engaging your son in a good conversation. You can either chat me up or give him my number that is 08184397113. I have great interest in matters like this because I was once in your son's shoes.
sslcrypt: Please stop giving advice that's bound to fail. Not everyone or business need your service. Let him focus on services and business people need daily.
How is it bound to fail, I told him to focus on developing himself first or you don't understand and also to focus on something that he can easily have better leverage. In case you don't know, blogging can pay you even if you don't have cash because Google will pay you in USD for creating contents and showing ads
Tadadobe: So, one of my uncle recently relocated home after soem years in America. I'm a recent graduate and I've been doing poultry farming for some times now, but limited in finances. My uncle asked me to enumerate what $5000 can do for me as he is ready to support me with this amount.
What can this amount do? Is it too small to start with? Particularly, what other business can I do with this money
Use $1000 to start a digital based business like blogging or mobile app then spend another $500 on personal branding and your financial and skill development by buying books, taking courses, use $100 to register a company to position yourself for opportunities. The remaining amount use it to buy cheap products and sell online.

Iceking1: Good evening nairalanders, please what business can I start with 2,100,000 that will be giving me a return of 2,000 - 5000 Naira on a daily basis.
I would be needing your urgent opinion regarding this, as it's urgent. Please help.
Simple as ABC it's trading. Either physical commodity or virtual commodity like cryptocurrency. You can also own mobile app that can be giving you up to $200 monthly and even as high as $500 depending on amount of users, it won't cost you more than 100k to 150k to setup. You can also setup a blog, some bloggers earn as much as $50,000 monthly, although it needs great effort for content creation. With as low as 100k too you can get started. In case you are interested in any of the options, chat me up on 08184397113for further information
