Usual progression: Religious => Atheist => Agnostic => Pantheist => Who knows...

Once you become an atheist, the first thing that happens is that you kinda become angry.


Why the fvck did they sell me this bullshít. Why is everyone so irrational - unlike the smart, superior me? But remember, we humans are all superfluously irrational.

Lol, there's even a book titled Predictably Irrational - makes an interesting read.


If you look closely, you'll see that our irrationality as a specie even borders on idiocy. Take something as you being from Nigeria as an example. In the name of this imaginary entity, you will 'justifiably' discriminate, fight wars and kill people. Well, because they are from a different imaginary entity.

Nationalism is the infantile disease of mankind, said Einstein. He was so right.


Almost every one of our actions is governed by irrationality. Emotions. And emotions take logic to the cleaners all the time, everyday. Logic just doesn't stand a fvcking chance.

When you 'attack' a religious person with your logic, even if you possess the persuasiveness of a serpent, he FEELS affronted. An affront to his God, an affront to his intelligence and an affront to his person.

And under this beautiful atmosphere, there's no way your message could possibly get through. And to make things worse, you are going against thousands of years of momentum...and years and years of conditioning. Your logic is not that strong - though it has it virtues.


Besides, everyone is right, depending on where their understanding is, and where circumstance has placed them.

For example, if you asked a student in Primary 2, "What is 2 - 3?", her answer would be "it cannot go!" Is she wrong?

Good.

"You cannot teach a man anything, you can only help him find it within himself." ---- Galileo


So instead of going all kung fu-evangelical on their áss. Why not plant seeds instead. "What if...?" Or generally express your opinion, when asked, without being condescending, disrespectful or combative.

And most patiently hope that someday, they might, in a moment of quiet contemplation have some bulbs go off. "What if I was born a Muslim, a Christian, a Buddhist or a Traditionalist". "If God loves us so much, why would he burn some of us for - wait! - ETERNITY!", "That's incongruent with being all LOVE"

A hole here and a hole there, you have yourself a leaky ship. And once there's a leaky ship, the entire complex is going down, down, down.

Its only a matter of time.

And finally, arguments are blunt instruments which bloody more than they cut (paraphrasing Chief Dr Robert Greene). Believe me, you will lose quite a few friends - if you are the argument guy.


"If you argue and rankle and contradict, you may achieve a victory sometimes; but it will be an empty victory because you will never get your opponent's good will." -------- Benjamin Franklin

The man can't even protect himself from the rain! The man finds it hard to hold his own umbrella. You expect him to protect you keep waiting.

Hi sir,please forgive my sincere and not intentionally induced ignorance: what is the meaning of old money and new money?

Not at all, my good man...

Old Money - Wealth (most times passed on from generation to generation) that comes with pedigree, class, and quiet dignity. Synonymous with the bourgeois or proletariat class of society. Old money families will typically teach their children six languages and three instruments including violin, piano and other classy shxt. They know the difference between a chardonnay and a cabernet sauvignon, and how to consume, and with what. Vehicles of choice, Mercedes, Rolls Royce. Vacation destinations include Gstaad, Switzerland (they know the G is silent), Ibiza (they know it is pronounced "I-bee-tha", etc. Examples include Dantata & family, Yuzedo (the Elite) & Sons, etc.

New Money - Riches (newly acquired to the surprise of all including and especially the holder) that motivates one to flaunt it on social media. Buy garrulous jewellery, buy "HUMMER JEEP" or any other Fxcking "JEEP" for that matter (it's not an SUV to them) and champagne every friday with ratchet hoes and equally-loud, "jaiye-jaiye" friends. The money dey quick finish, e no dey ever reach their grandkids because they are averse to buying the future, but would rather purchase vanities in the present. Holiday itinerary - LONDON (e no dey ever pass London, and they love Peckham more than Jesus Christ?! Oh my fackin' gaad!! Can also be found in Woolwich, NEVER EVER in Knightsbridge) Examples include ALL NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES (except Rita Dominic), Femi-Fani Kayode, and Sagamite (Bros i use God beg you na play!)

... Hope I have been able to convince you and not confuse you. Tenk!

CityNG:
Looks like a Vegas whorehouse.

Absolutely no taste and goes to prove that money can't buy class.

UjSizzle:
