Crime / Re: Lords Chosen Church Members Killed By Herdsmen In Nkaleha, Ebonyi by monex(m): 5:13pm On Feb 04
madridguy:
If the FG don't do something fast about this killer herdsmen, I doubt if another civil war will not happen.

How on earth will a country allow some few people going around with sophisticated weapons just because they're rearing cows.

I hope the community mobilize themselves and make sure they kill the bastards too.

if the community mobilizes nd kills, they will probably also kill innocents because they are either fulani or because they are muslims.

the solution is to ban grazing cos they will kill with knifes if you take away their guns

Bitter Obidients will commend Canada for the help but , condemn it if any country want to help nigeria in this kind of incident undecided undecided they will claim the president don't know anything about governernce he should resign

I get the point in terms of people using any flimsy exclude to shit on their Country but the truth is our disaster response is abysmal and it did not start with the current President so don't take it as a jab to your patron.

the level of fires witnessed in California would exterminate hundreds of thousands if not millions if it happened in Nigeria.

What are you talking about?. Olukumi knows their history very well, while it is true that the language has been diluted with Igbo. Lukumi scholars have documented the original language. There is also a festival whereby the history & language is been celebrated.

-Kiss the truth!

lukumi language is actually among endangered languages. There needs to be more conscious effort to prevent it from going extinct

CAN U COME FROM A PLACE U DONT KNOW THEIR LANGUAGE, CULTURE OR KINGSHIP?

A PLACE THAT EVEN THE OBA WROTE IN HIS BOOK THAT IKWERRE ARE NOT FROM BINI.

PLEASE, STOP DAT MADNESS.

Both Benin and Ikwere history agree that the Ikweres did not migrate from bini

Ogba is a different ball game though even though they have linguistic and cultural ties to the Ikwere people

language or names don't mean much. For instance, the Olukumi (Ugbodu) people in Aniocha have been dropping their Yoruba names for Aniocha ones. As the Olukumi language dialect is also going extinct, some three hundred from now, we will argue that they never had Yoruba origins and find some Igbo meaning for Olukumi.

Show us your lies or forever keep mute!

I am not sure what you think is a lie in my post.

You think that Christian doctrine does not say that Jesus attributed divinity to himself?

you might be confusing what Christian doctrine says about Jesus's divinity vs the facts about Jesus's divinity?

I am talking about the former which is the only thing relevant to a discussion about blasphemy in Christianity

Christian doctrine says that Jesus attributed divinity to himself and called himself God.

It is therefore blasphemous in Christianity to deny the divinity of Jesus

If popular belief could be erroneous then trinity is not doctrinal.

doctrinal still means a codified set of belief. you are confusing the word doctrinal with the word factual. The doctrine of a religion is not binding on those outside the religion.

The Jews of his time had a belief system that considered Jesus being divine to be blasphemous.

So do you mean the popular people's belief about Jesus during his time was blasphemous?

for someone who is quite religious, you should know that popular does not equal doctrinal.

For the Jewish adherents of his time, of course, Jesus equating himself to God was blasphemous.

Ahmed Dedat has already dealt with that Isaac Abraham story you claim to plagiarized.

stop arguing nonsense. I am not in support of removing it as I generally believe blasphemy is an inherent part of religion.

My issue is you arguing that another religion believing your blasphemy that PBUH Mohammed is not the last prophet or is not a prophet at all is a different analogy.

It is practically the same thing. One religion's belief versus another religions blasphemy

the belief system of the religion is what matters not what you think was the popular belief of people in his time.

similar for islam.

One religion's belief system is another religion's blasphemy

remember that everything being discussed religion, belief system etc. are purely subjective

The banner is okay o!

Jesus is a Prophet of God!


Proofs!
Just then a man came up to Jesus and inquired, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to obtain eternal life?” “Why do you ask Me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.” Matthew 19:16-17

“Why do you call me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone. Mark 10:18

“Why do you call me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone. Luke 18:19

NB: Jesus ought to have just said "Yeah, i am your good God! or just accept the attribute of goodness for himself.

When the chief priests and Pharisees heard His parables, they knew that Jesus was speaking about them. Although they wanted to arrest Him, they were afraid of the crowds, because the people regarded Him as a prophet. Matthew 21:45-46.

NB: Even the people during his time regarded him as a Prophet!

I dont see anything wrong with it but not for the reason you gave.

"Jesus is not God" is a valid belief system in Islam but is blasphemy in Christianity.
"Muhammed is not a prophet" is a valid belief system in Christianity but would be blasphemy in Islam.

Blasphemy cannot be a crime as it is a necessary component of a religious belief system. What you call blasphemy is simply another person expressing their belief system.

But we don't see you clowns travel to North Korea, Russia, Afghanistan, or Pakistan since you hate the West and it's allies so much.

In case you are dumb, let me explain to you what is happening. This is democracy in action. The president announced a decision and the parliament voted against it and the president reversed his decision. Can this happen in North Korea? Now, the police just raided the president's office. This goes to show you that no one is above the law in South Korea. Can the North Korea police raid the North Korean's president office?


as in this is commendable and quite the opposite of chaos. It shows a highly functional system.

Imagine police searching Aso rock to investigate Tinubu

As a matter of fact they do and once did- By arming islamists they (the US ) referred to as "moderate rebels" during the Syrian civil war that predated this one. It was all over the news . they actually considered them as a lesser evil just because they wanted the despot stupid Assad to leave then.

the US armed the SDF (Kurds).

They didn't arm the HTS - who were then Al Qaeda and are actually a breakout from the ISIS US was later fighting.

it is Turkey and that isn't disputed.

note that the SDF and other rebel groups are not part of the latest swoop. There isnt one rebel army so Syria is at best factional unless all rebel groups come to some agreement

You guys should read the 1974 disengagement agreement na.

Immediately the Syrian Army abandoned their posts, the agreement was nullified. Until there is a new government ready to honour/continue that agreement, Israel is obligated to man the positions abandoned by the Syrian National Army

Both ISIS and Al Qaida represent only the interest of the US and Israel, who formed and armed them to the teeth and have nothing to do with Islam or Muslims in the real sense. Has anyone heard anything from either Alqaida or ISIS on the Israel genocide taking place in Gaza? Simon Eliot, aka Al-Bagdadi, ISIS's first leader, wasn't only a Jew but a Mossad agent. One thing the US, in particular, failed to understand is that whoever they nurture and pamper to fight their cause ends up fighting them. We have seen that in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and now it's Syria's turn.

you guys should stop this. You help fuel the dangerous and demeaning narrative that Muslims are in love with conspiracy theories. it makes people not take your intel or information seriously.

"Al-Bagdadi, ISIS's first leader, wasn't only a Jew but a Mossad agent" is balderdash.

"... US and Israel, who formed and armed them to the teeth" is also hogwash. That US toppling Sadam and France (and allied NATO nations) toppling Gadafi was a causative effect towards the formation and strengthening of ISIS/ISIL does not translate to "US and Israel formed ISIS".

He was an ISIS/Al Qaedda terrorist few years ago, but today he is a rebel.

This is the same rebel the US Airforce are giving air support to conquer Al-Asad regime.

he is Al-Qaeda not ISIL. They fought against ISIL in Syria. He is considered a Terrorist in the US but I wanted to point out that distinction.

On this same thread, Yoruba Muslim, christian even traditional have knocked Muric man down but as nothing dey your head apart from political jingoism, you will write the nonsense above

A meaningful life devoid of being bitter about politics is the best life to live

I don't know about previous statements, but MURIC is right to bring some advocacy on this. If not for religion, then at least for consumer service quality. When I put on my TV, it should show the last channel I watched and not the first channel number thereby forcing me to switch to another channel.

Those who "knock the MURIC man down" regarding this post are blinded by the subjectivity of MURICs previous statements or by religion.
