obstead200:
I am not a deeply religious person.

But this is definitely blasphemy and an insensitive derogation of the very foundation of the Christian faith. Islam would have spilled blood for this

Oluwapresley:
Na this news carry me come Nairaland.

Let me now calm down and read.

Modified:
Now I have read. It might be distasteful to some quite alright. But APCON should pumpi jare. It's not as bad as how I had expected it to be before reading. It's more or less a situation of a missed attempt at being funny rather than it being blasphemous.

englishmart:
First thing tomorrow, I will head to the nearest sterling bank, withdraw my last 11k and then close the useless account.
Nonsense.

monikulapo:

Honestly the Grammar is not necessary.
APCON is useless and Nigerians for the most part are stupid, taxpayers money is spent on this rubbish and naive gullible people are bringing up irrelevant conjectures.
Would you have the same opinion if a Bakery posted this ?
Read about Charlie Hebdo or other actual cases of humor done in bad taste before flexing irrelevant English and inciting unneeded hate.(FWIW it’s Islamophobia for assuming Islam would spill blood for it)

Mehn we at war with our minds, too many misdirected rage in this country. A flyer you should ordinarily just laugh and forget the bad joke.

Proflere:
Lolz, do you celebrate birthday every year? After you have been born, do you enter your mother again every year to be birthed again to celbrate birthday?

Aremson14:

U think its normal to blaspheme a people or u should laugh at it. My God this country is far gone

yrex01:
Christian is not any yeye religion that let any God fight anything, Christian tolerate nonsense and it's a home for nonsensical.
say muslims won't take it, yes we can never take it bcoz we don't tolerate nonsense

AlphaTaikun:

Do these fanatical people know what a "metaphor" is at all?
Bread "rises" so its just a simple
metaphor NOT an insult.

Go and read up on the meaning
of a metaphor and you'll see it's
harmless. Even the bible is littered with metaphors and allegorical
statements.

Imagine the fanatical and very unprofessional outburst from the so-called APCON boss. APCON is supposed to be a professional body! Sterling Bank should take the case to court if APCON fines them.

From what I have read on this thread many folks have become
religious fanatics who do not
have the love of the Divine in them but practice hate while hiding under the cover of religion!

I even saw a post here where a chap stated that he'll withdraw his money from that bank. Lol.

Africans must receive sense by
force or you'll remain at the
bottom of global advancement.
Period.

Metaphor kill you there

Reference:
But the Lord Jesus Christ is also known as the 'Bread of Life'.
Surely the Almighty will not be offended in that.
But modern day Christians are free to take offence.

Candidlady:



Oh thank you very much.. so those breads without labels are called AGEGE bread?

So who/what is AGEGE

Sleekfingers:




Jesus is agege bread....

Asabe4:
I think sterling Bank deliberately put up controversial posts on every celebration.

For a country as "religious" as Nigeria,the Easter Post was poorly thought out.

Nonsense.
