dekung: While it is true that there is no christian section on NL, I believe there is a thread opened for them to air their Godly view. The thread is always on front page and I dont think I have ever visited that thread like I have never visited the Islamic thread. Talking about people that are insultive and uncouth, I think honour should be given to two people Davidylan and Vedaxcool. Davidylan cannot make a sentence without issuing at least 3 insulting words and aam not sure MODs have ever banned, warned or deleted any of his posts. Logicboy challenged Jesoul on this and am surprised she hasnt responded. In my opinion I think the forum should be merged into a single forum. Because once Seun starts creating section then there would be need for subsection just like Lagosshia is asking for different sub sections for Suni, shia etc. Christian to would start requesting baptist section, anglical section, Daystar section etc |

tunnytox: Muslims are trouble makers, hence providing them with a section. What do you need Christian section for? What do you want to discus that isn't self-explanatory in the Bible? Are you troubled, read Psalm. Do you need help in other areas, read Mathew 6:33. Last time I checked, Christians are the list people you should run to when you need help. They are hypocrites and would do everything to please their Pastors rather than you the needy. 1 Like |

Methinks the religious section should be scrapped altogether.Religion is too divisive & make sane people act in an irrational manner,whether online or in real life the story is the same.Take a look around the world. Muslims are carrying out violent attacks on other Muslims and non-Muslims. Catholics in some countries are attacking non-Catholics and Protestants are carrying out violent attacks on other entities; Christians are divided amongst themselves; there is not one entity, but a plethora of various paths e.g. Congregational, Baptists, Coptic,Pentecostals etc. etc. Leaders & so called Men of God of some groups announce that they are the true ones and that if you follow another path you are doomed. I was taught that religion was supposed to be a unifying act. Wars have been and are being fought in the name of religion. Its about time we woke up and take a hard look at what we call the arbiter of peace. Religion in excessive doses kills.Besides,like some posters have alluded to,If Seun caves in to this demand,the Atheists would want Atheists for Atheists,Agnostic for Agnostics,Satanic for Satanists,Ogboni for Ogbonis & so on & so forth.where then do we draw the line 6 Likes |

For real, odunnu is right. A christain section is needed. |

Creating a Christian section for the Christians will automatically mean that you will have to create a section for the atheists agnostics etc otherwise we'd be frozen out of nairaland. Like Miaay B said in an earlier post what we need is strict moderating. |

Hmmmmmm....Nigerians and their penchant for "Religion" ....without any modicum of spirituality! Why must you have a separate section? Did Jesus have a separate country? Did he seclude himself? Did he segregate when dispensing salvation? Did he not ask that "ALL" come unto him? Did he castigate others? Did Christ not ask us to be an example, in tolerance and accommodation of others? Did Christ not ask us to "Let our light shine so well, that others might wonder and give glory to our father in heaven"? How can you be all the above when you cant even tolerate the presence or dissenting comments (words only) of others? I think the problem of the Poster is pure and simple "FANATICISM"! It is the same Fanaticism exhibited by Muslims who created their own section, just for only Muslims, to be moderated by a Muslim! It is this same Fanaticism exhibited by Muslims who slaughtered a man (like a chicken!) because he converted from Islam to Christianity! See the link here: http://www.raymondibrahim.com/11798/graphic-video-tunisian-muslims-slaughter-convert We need to grow-up and stop "acting or fighting on God's behalf". God is too big for "any religion" to fight on his behalf! People should keep their religion (or the fanaticism!) to themselves. All we see and hear in Nigeria is "RELIGION" yet "EVIL pervades all facets" of our Life! Nonsense. Lastpage! 1 Like |

hehehehhehee!! I dey laff o. Wv d way christians av bn criticising Muslims for avn a Muslim section, I knew something like this would come up. Someone finally taking to advice? Davidylan, frosbel shouldnt hide their happiness o! Thanksgiving should follow sef. But really, except that christians arent up to the task anymore, or have suddenly grown intolerant, they should just remain with the atheists on the 'religion' section. If u seclude urselves, how would you preach the gospel to others or is the goodnews for you alone? That would amount to selfishness. And if u do get what you want, Remember that 'others' would come help u out when the need arises. Just as u av always flocked d Muslim section with ur tales, nemesis may catch up with you. The good thing is, u'd be truly exposed for what u all are and it wld b obvious u arent as many as u thought. |

another religious animosity. islam vs christianity. there would be no peace in this world until religion loses its grip on human mind. i know this lady (deols) wont be this sarcastic if not motivated by her religion and vice versa for christians too. a good man do good deeds and a bad man do bad deeds but only religion can make a good man do bad deeds. history of religious animosity all over the world and even in nigeria recently, testify to this fact. |

@Seun, You'll only be creating a Frankenstein's monster by giving in to this demand. Atheists, Skeptics, Agnostics are already making up a substantial proportion of Nairaland, and will eventually request for their section. Morever, Christianity has a lot of factions. In little time, churches will start asking for subsections. The Religion section should be able to accommodate whatever religious views NLanders have. @ those displeased with the Islam section, life isn't always fair. |

Calling non believers bastards and insulting Muslims are you claim to be Christlike? The problem with religious people is that they feel they are special one's and that their god have made them to dominate and rule other human being with different faith from them. There is definitely no need for a Christian section because we must all learn to be tolerant and live with our differences. Christians are free to call Atheist/ Agnostic fool and the likes, but when an Atheist/ Agnostic mock the Christians, they find it difficult to swallow their own pill. 1 Like |

This is like a cat and mouse game. "Because muslim have section we should have it too?" You are meant to be big men and women (except Goldie) and you are here crying over spilt milk. The Islamic. Section is needed for many because Islam is a box and you have to stay within its 4 walls(or 5pillars if we want to go deep) with strict guidelines. There are many who don't have much access to islam and being a muslim so they come on here to learn. Islam is a very different religion to christianity and much stricter. There are no leeways whereas in christianity you are allowed to do things you were denied previous. Basicallyy, anything you feel like. We cannot do so, we follow it by the book from beginning to end we don't leave it to interpretation. As you can see the Qu'ran is in arabic and that is not our language and for us that don't have arabic schools where we are, we need the section. By having the section, we get help in our everyday lives. For those living in obodo oyinbo, if a christian wants help they have churches in every street corner but with mosques, you have like 1 in every 200 street corner. We hardly have access to mosques to learn. Just recently I learnt that I should not be having my 9p interest on my savings so imagine if it was not for the section I would have continued living in yet another sin. I hope you see where I am going with this? So please growup! Only my unborn 6year old would whine and moan over spilt milk. @lastpage, that link you posted is not the Islam I know and being brought up with. My body still crawls from watching that. I guess the guy is a martyr, no? |
