dammmy: Do you think as mighty as God is...He will come to earth through a humanbeing...Dont you think he can just come down from heaven and walk to the people of Jerusalem....Or you don't think he can do that.....the miracle of Mary mother of Jesus(PBUH) is as great as dat of a very old women who conceive at menopause....Majority of us was born into a religion and we never seek the truth.

don't mind them.
God has no mother or father. Mary is just a physical/earthy mother but nothing in the spiritual sense.
She had no significance after the birth. In fact, Jesus turned her away later on.

catholic church dwells on the physical. spiritual matters do not concern them. Why do you think they rely so much on images, pictures, and physical symbols, rosaries, communion with bread and all of that is placed as more important than the spiritual matters etc.
they would rather eat bread and drink wine to celebrate jesus than accept that the holy ghost and speaking in tongues exist.

Bitter Truth about Blessed Virgin Mary

1. Virgin Mary was a young GIRL. she wasn't a woman by today's standards. She was no older than 14 yrs old according to historical documents. In fact, she was probably around 9 yrs old.

2. The Catholic church is full of crap. They "honor" virgin Mary yet no woman is allowed to become a leader in the Catholic church. dumbasses. how can you honor virgin mary when all you are doing is bowing down to her pictures and images like idolators. "Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers, so you do onto me" If you want to honor virgin mary, then you will honor women all over the world. instead of just worshipping mary pictures and treating all other women as unworthy of leadership.

catholic church is the only one that does not allow female priests, leaders. Other churches have female pastors etc. those are the churches that truly honor mary and women in general.

Dream on.......... after all it is free to dream

ok. It is starting to seem that you are on this thread just for attention. None of your posts so far are very coherent or sensible.
Do you know that in all societies, the most vulnerable (powerless) population statistically are children, women and elderly. Then in each society, you will have other vulnerable groups or "marginalized" groups based on religion, ethnicity (osu etc), sexuality (gays etc)etc
It is human nature to be wicked especially toward those who are less powerful than you. So I don't blame you. If Nigeria went after the powerful corrupt politicians with the same amount of venom that they go after weak members of society, Nigeria will be a developed country by now. Think about it.

If as a woman you have ambition to become a very successful person, in some african countries, u will be called lesbian for having ambition. The belief is that only men are supposed to be poweful therefore any woman with aims to become successful must be a lesbian.
In the past, female PhD holders in Nigeria were called lesbians because they are trying to compete with men. Today, that is a ridiculous idea.

In the future, this whole anti-gay movement will also be a ridiculous idea

Rilamaka: Go and look for a Nigerian homosexual website,

how are you sure that Seun (the creator of this website) is heterosexual?
will you quit nairaland if you find out the owner was gay?
rubbish.

Rilamaka:

I have just had a look and this confirms that your brain is as porous as I expected it to be. BTW what's the original term for homosexuality in your local language?

It will never be accepted in Nigeria, so keep living your pathetic life in the shadows of other people. I am sorry you can't be free to practise such act openly in my country Nigeria, so I would advise you to invest your time to invent sneaky ways of doing your stuff. Unlike you I am free to practise my heterosexuality and I am loving it . Lastly I don't talk to homosexuals because they are cursed.

Well, it is accepted in Nigeria (if you are able to think outside the box). So long as gays exist in Nigeria (which they do), they will have accepting communities and have lives in ways any other human being would.
Are osu people accepted in Igbo land? NO. Do they live their lives? yes.

How do you know that you don't talk to homosexuals? You can't recognize a homosexual just by looking at him/her can you? hahahaha

well,I live in d USA and i'm heterosexual but I have gay friends and even gay co-workers. One of my math professors as a university student was a gay man.He is married to another gay man and they have an adopted child. They are just normal human beings. Some of the men are very effeminate. God created them like that. Will God make a mistake in creating man? NO.

In fact, in African culture before colonization, you have concepts like Yan Daudu in Hausa culture that was completely acepted. Today, they are called homosexuals or gay and are persecuted by society. You can see the same concepts in yoruba and igbo cultures if you do your research. They exist in all societies.

Societies that are most anti-gay tend to also be ones that are most repressive toward women. If you ever see a culture or society where women have rights (women like Fumni Iyanda, Chimamanda Adichie etc), you will see more acceptance of homosexuality.

Rilamaka:

Don't be ridiculous, I am not afraid of anything, I am not like you, whose freedom of speech is confined to social networks and all that. I am not sick like you lot, you need help, memorizing my username won't help either. Be a man and voice out your concerns in public, that's all i am saying.

You are not afraid because u know that there are plenty other people with small minds like you. Tell me something you stand for and I will tell you who you are?
I bet u r one of those who follow d crowd or go wherever the wind blows. If Jesus was alive today in NIgeria, you will be with the crowd that nails him to the cross. Rubbish.

Rilamaka:
I would like to see a section of that "sodomy" law.

Thanks for asking but you could just as well have done a simple google search. Here is a link:
http://www.hrw.org/news/2008/12/17/sodomy-laws-show-survival-colonial-injustice
http://www.hrw.org/reports/2008/12/17/alien-legacy-0

It is very funny because if you look at all the former british colonies, their laws against homosexuality are almost all identical!! well, duh. Because the law was written by the British.
India removed the anti-gay colonial law from its constitution in 2009
http://www.hrw.org/news/2009/07/02/india-court-strikes-down-sodomy-law

Rilamaka:

Its *existed* honey. Your argument is laughable, so it has come down to this? silly and baseless accusations? come on boy, give your life to Christ and stop causing your family untold shame and pain. I would like to see a section of that "sodomy" law. While at it, try to take English lesson you can speak authoritatively against homophobia in Nigeria

You are finished! and I am sorry for you.

hahaha you are truly indeed illiterate.
"has and always will EXIST" is d correct form
go back to school and learn d use of proper grammar.

by the way, IT'S not ITS.

they think homophobia is part of African culture when in reality, anti-gay laws were imposed by British colonial masters in late 1800s.
The British have moved on since 1800s yet Africans are still stuck in century old mentality. worst of all, we believe that these old british legacies are part of our own traditional culture
Illiteracy is a disease.

Rilamaka:

No its your a.s.s and poo eating partner that typed it, you are just an i.d.i.o.t, like I said, you are not doing enough, calling me an illiterate will not make ur pathetic life better. Come out and fight for your right, since u deserve to be gay. I am waiting, to see you ablaze of course, that's if you would ever come out, so keep hiding. Btw are u not ashamed of this life? do you call this life? where you have to hide all your life? are you not finished? are you not doomed? The punishment for your type should have been death sentence, oh well, that's where the jungle justice comes in, so mr proud gay man, liberate your kind, fight for them, its not enough to call me an illiterate on Nairaland or argue your point here, be brave , just be brave, lets see if people will not be sweeping the ashes of your corrupted body.

HOMOSEXUALITY HAS NO PLACE IN NIGERIA. SIMPLE. (You can now like to commit suicide, social misfit).

You are a closet gay. Instead of coming out and admitting it, you prefer to bash the law abiding homosexuals who have open relationships with consenting adults. while you participate in homosexuality as a criminal. raping men and young boys behind close doors.
I see people like you in d news all d time. church priests condeming gays in public but raping boys in private.

homosexuality has and always will exist in Nigeria. Remember, the british first came to Nigeria over 100yrs ago and there was so much homosexuality that they created sodomy laws to stop it. 100 yrs ago. hahahah

GSKing:
You want to murder someone cos they dont share your views?
Kindly google out the words "bimbo" and "fish-wife" and your birth name would appear beside it.

well, remember even Jesus was killed by the same people who profess to be the most religious.
at least he lived till 33. If he had been born in Nigeria, Jesus would be dead by age 9. These primitive barbarians will not let d guy live.
Jesus turned water into Alcohol. How dare he. They will kill him right away.

Rilamaka: I swear I will be the first person to light the match on your body once it is doused with petrol and watch that demonic infested life drain out of your eyes as you burn to ashes in the full glare of an irritated crowd.
Demonic Entity. The devil is a liar, in Jesus name, we say NO to homosexuality.

Well, the gay man dat was interviewed is currently living in UK under asylum visa. He escaped alive to a developed country. Thank God.
U, ur own body will rot in ur village. dey there dey douse human being with petrol, dey cut human head and feet "in d name of Jesus"
what a barbaric animal. who dash u technology like computer.

*YAWN*

TrickofTech: I am even beginning to wonder if she was using it/my texts as a bragging opportunity to her friends. She wanted to keep things going, to eventually get me to declare my feelings "look I have an oyinbo". Jesus...how could I have got her so wrong.

What a repulsive individual....

You see. She is exactly what I thought. 'Oyinbo Hunter'. I am a one woman kind of guy really. I never wanted to play about. I just want a wife and family. She is 30. It is what she is looking for. Not only that but I loved her for who she is.

I want her to call me so I call tell her exactly what she missed out on. "Tru love" as she calls it. She does not (and probably never will know the meaning of the word). She has gone from wife material to prostitute in seconds. I always wondered what her day job was. She was always very vague..."photocopying". Always had a lot of money too, cash. Phone number on facebook.

She wasn't even chasing u. You were d one who was obsessing over her and declaring ur great love for her. Now because she rejected u/ she's not interested, u have concluded she is a "prostitute" "oyinbo hunter" "repulsive" etc anything to make urself feel better sha
better luck next time. eyahh

Illuminatus:
Exactly. See what happened with slavery and killing twins?

and even with condom use among christians. The catholic church considered condom use to be a sin until as late as 2010!!
Other churches allow women pastors. D catholic church is still behind on allowing female priests.
They are also d ones most vehemently against homosexuality and ironically enough, their members r d ones who are most often caught abusing boys. They would not need to abuse young boys if they were allowed to practice their homosexuality normally with consenting males of their age. LOL

Do Deeper Life members still consider it a sin to watch TV and use technology? hahahahaha
I know they make it a sin to use jewelry or for women to wear make-up and trousers.
some consider it an abominable sin to take alcohol other church denominations allow it in moderation.

This is why christians should pray for discernment. The ability to distinguish man made laws from God's law.

He tried to flog her, she took d pankere away from his hands and began to flog his tus[size=1pt].[/size]h.
her head dey there....

that link might be satire. It read like a satiric piece. if it is a real MRM article then it shows how dumb the MRM movement is. Seriously they want women to have low self esteem so that they can feel manly? wtf. that's just psychopathic stuff right there. No wonder they are closely watched by terrorist watch group in USA. Even the American police knows that a high percentage of MRM movement members r probably secretly serial rap[size=1pt].[/size]ists.
If d police wants to find and arrest a serial r.apist or serial murderer (they tend to target women and children) then they shld look no further than online community of rabid anti-feminists and MRM members.

there is to your perverted enjoyment.

I am a feminist and I agree that responsibilities of providing for the family should be shared equally- statistically.
in reality, esp among the poor, women bear majority of the family responsibility anyway. esp when it comes toward children where the fathers are irresponsible. the reason why I say poor is because these women r poor. why should a woman be poor without a man? are women slaves, children, subordinates? NO. feminists do not believe in a superiority of men over women.

if a woman is able to equally support the family, financially, it follows that she will have d confidence to equally contribute to the decision making in the household.

well, to summarize the topic, it pays to be a bad girl
I also notice dat the bad girls end up being d first ones to get married too.

Akshow: We now celebrate halloween, bridal shower, baby shower, thanksgiving, very soon we go start fourth of July day celebration. Colonial mental slavery.

e dey pain u so? If to say na paul okoye and im biracial wife, u go complain?
na only man fit catch kolomental craze?

abeg, women r allowed too

The topic should be changed to who is prettier: light skin vs dark skin. there is nothing more to dis thread

GSKing:
Do you think I don't know what's written in that phucking book you call your bible? Aren't everybody expected to marry as virgins? Your bible says "do not fornicate" which applies to all gender, you person!
Answer this question now sharp sharp... why do you quote ur bible only to suit your purpose? Is that what your jesus thought you?
Where was your chastity when you were typing shiit on other threads just to get a good laugh?
Why do christians preach exactly what they don't practice?
why do you simpletons obey only a chunk of all instructions in the 66 chapters of your partnership deed?
Why do you feel you have enough wisdom that you want to pass down to gays on nairaland that you so much refuse to unfollow this thread? Make no mistake, we enjoy your presence here, the more efforts you put into trying to educate us, the more fully of shiit your intelligence exudes.

nice one.

virginfinder, answer d question. are you a virgin yourself?
or your job is just to disvirgin as many girls u can find. because after a while. if all the virgins r disvirgined by virginfinders, what virgins will be left? little girls. won't it. this is how pedophilia forms.

Virgin Finder:
You called me a fool?
[/b]

why r u so concerned about being called a fool?
aren't you a fool?

This is what Jesus has to say to you:

Matthew 23

23 You Pharisees and teachers are show-offs, and you’re in for trouble! You give God a tenth of the spices from your garden, such as mint, dill, and cumin. Yet you neglect the more important matters of the Law, such as justice, mercy, and faithfulness. These are the important things you should have done, though you should not have left the others undone either. 24 You blind leaders! You strain out a small fly but swallow a camel.

25 You Pharisees and teachers are show-offs, and you’re in for trouble! You wash the outside of your cups and dishes, while inside there is nothing but greed and selfishness. 26 You blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of a cup, and then the outside will also be clean.

27 You Pharisees and teachers are in for trouble! You’re nothing but show-offs. You’re like tombs that have been whitewashed.[c] On the outside they are beautiful, but inside they are full of bones and filth. 28 That’s what you are like. Outside you look good, but inside you are evil and only pretend to be good.

29 You Pharisees and teachers are nothing but show-offs, and you’re in for trouble! You build monuments for the prophets and decorate the tombs of good people. 30 And you claim that you would not have taken part with your ancestors in killing the prophets. 31 But you prove that you really are the relatives of the ones who killed the prophets. 32 So keep on doing everything they did. 33 You are nothing but snakes and the children of snakes! How can you escape going to hell?

34 I will send prophets and wise people and experts in the Law of Moses to you. But you will kill them or nail them to a cross or beat them in your meeting places or chase them from town to town. 35 That’s why you will be held guilty for the murder of every good person, beginning with the good man Abel. This also includes Barachiah’s son Zechariah,[d] the man you murdered between the temple and the altar. 36 I can promise that you people living today will be punished for all these things!

Virgin Finder:

And only girls below the age of 18 are supposed to be virgins?

the bible was written thousands of years ago. In those days, little girls were married off to old men. Today, that is considered pedophilia and you will go to jail if you try it in a developed country. That's where the virgin idea comes from. The definition of "virgin" in those times means "young girl" or "maiden" . For scholar who study the hebrew language. this is well known.
Today, women can get married in their late 20s or 30s even. This will be unheard of in biblical times.
Mary the mother of Jesus was a young girl not older than 12 yrs old.

Use your brain. Even Jesus condemned the Pharisees and the Saducees, the holier than thous who claim to be preserving the law of Moses.
Even Jesus would be persecuted today if he came back. He would be persecuted by d same holier than thous who persecuted him when he walked on earth.
The ability to distinguish between a man made law and God's law. Pray for such a ability. I will pray for you and for myself as well.
