raumdeuter: Whataboutism. I was very specific : "Hindus won't behead [or lynch you] for eating beef ". I was specific. Check the comment you quoted. Even in the west, cruelty against animals have consequences. You are supposed to put it to sleep before skinning it or anything. |

Havertz10: lol. I wouldn't even know where to start with this. To deconstruct this will take all day but I'll make a small attempt. Let's start with what keeps the Ruble up. In the absence of real demand, currencies are supported by foreign exchange reserves and Russia Foreign Exchange spent $38.8bln just in the first month of the war to support the ruble. Like I said, we will see how far for Ruble when they run out of foreign exchange. I believe they had $300bln (unseized) at the start of the war. Na so Hugo Chavez start him gragra till his foreign exchange ran out and the Bolivar plummeted. Any big country can implement strict capital controls until they run out of Forex. This includes spending Forex, banning trading of foreign currencies internally, forcing Russian companies to change 80% of their earnings to Ruble, bribing people to save in Ruble at 17% interest rates etc. In the history of markets, no country has implemented these controls and still not suffer down the line. But as far as you are concerned, as long as you see that Ruble artificially propped up, you are satisfied. Nigerians economic understanding never went beyond value of Naira that's why Buhari could deceive Nigerians with $1 to N1 talks. Russia 1 year and 10 year bond is trading over 10%, US is trading at 2%. Nigeria 1 year is trading at 5% and 10 year bond at 11%. That's the amount of confidence markets have in Russias economic prospects and the cost they put on lending them money - on a par with Nigeria. Secondly, you are conflating issues with stockmarket. US stockmarkets have been hyperinflated since Covid when the central bank dropped interest rates to zero and started buying up balance sheets. That is a different economic lesson of its own and was always going to fall with interest rate hikes which it has been doing since November last year when the Fed signalled interest rate rises. Again, I won't start to explain how zero interest rates hypercharge stockmarket and return to normal interest rates cool them down again. US indices have only given back half of the gains they got from the low credit environment instituted by the Fed in 2020. S&P500 went from 3,200 before the pandemic to peak at 4,800. It is now at 3,900 (pic below). So in essence those markets have just been unwinding their bubble from the high of all the free money the Fed was injecting into the markets. Same reason I stated last year that I would be switching my pension to a fixed pension to get out of exposure to stock market. Those of us who follow markets have already made provision for what we expect to happen after interest rates start to increase, while laymen like you will be shouting "Up Russia". As for inflation, like I said, US was already running at 8% before the invasion. This was due to the effect of the greatest fiscal expansion in history due to Covid and was expected to continue. Russia is just another straw ontop of already mounting inflation. You are just a layman interpreting a confluence of events and ascribing it to Russia. In normal times, this war can't even shake the West beyond a minor inconvenience, but added to the after-effects of Covid, Russia is a useful tool to blame and for Putin bootlickers to hail. Oil price is the same now as it was in 2014 and Gas is nowhere near it was from 2005 to 2009. Westerners are not stupid. They calculated that they may take a 2% contraction while Russia takes a 20% contraction if they go all out and ban Russia altogether. But you keep hailing oga Putin, the slayer of the West while he and his ministers are worried sick about the real implication for Russia. You believe what you want to, and we'll come back in a couple of years to compare how this stupidity went for Russia. They actually banked on getting Ukraine to surrender in a few days by which point any economic sanctions will be a fait accompli as the deed would already be done. They never banked on getting trapped there and having sanctions enacted over a long period. Follow all their finance ministers statements and you will see their real concern. 9 Likes 1 Share

Havertz10: I haven't been following but had to ask from someone who stays in Abuja and this is what happened An Okada man was on speed while carrying a bereaved woman who was just going to the market to get garden eggs for her husbands waykeep. When he hit break she flew from the bike and fell down and unfortunately a truck smashed her. The okada man being an Hausa man tried to run but they caught him and started beating him. Sha the thing escalated and Hausa men retaliated by burning down things in that area and then hitting any body they saw. It was on Wednesday. 1 Like |

Capaldi: To begin with, you and anyone (who isn't a muslim) here antagonising the Christians have probably attended more church or religious programmes in the last 12 months than I have in the last 12 years. I'd quote at least 10 posts of mine over the years reiterating this (that I'm barely religious) and troling those who reiterate what their pastors say. I'm barely religious but I am of the Christian faith. Religion and spirituality are different not the same. Not mutually exclusive but not the same. Religion is nothing more than a set of doctrines influenced by its custodians. That's why I don't reference and would never reference any pastor, priest or clergyman as an authority on biblical history or doctrines. All my arguments so far have been based on this. Funny though that Jesus the Christ whom Christians reference stopped a woman from being stoned according to Jewish laws. That marked the beginning of Christianity and a deviation from such doctrines. The same Bible which said for the children of Israel not to associate with unbelievers in older texts also tweaked its stance for everyone of all races and religions being loved by God and God showing them. Remember my earlier comment about Christianity reinventing itself? Now this what makes it a humane religion or, if you like, a humane faith. Over time, Christians have adopted such stances. |

DissTroy:You didn't answer the question so i will ask again. Quick question to you as a Christian. If a group of christians following Gods direct order below. Leviticus 24 15 And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Whosoever curseth his God shall bear his sin. 16 And he that blasphemeth the name of the LORD, he shall surely be put to death, and all the congregation shall certainly stone him Catches a blasphemer and stones him according to the almighty God instructions. Will you castigate them for following God instructions or castigate God for making such instructions? |

raumdeuter: Indians would typically mob a Muslim for breathing wrongly. Historically, Indians have been having countless clashes with Muslims. Do confirm this. It's not unconnected to the Indian-Pakistani hate. Any excuse would do. Interestingly, from me holding fort for Christianity and juxtaposing its ideals against the irrational fanaticism of Moslems, you want me to hold forte for other religions too. You do not realise it but, somehow, in your ensuing arguments, you have inadvertently justified or rationalised Deborah's gruesome murder by the bloodcraving fanatics driven by Islamic ideals which have no place amongst civil. Somehow, you've justified any perceived disrespect to one's religious sect and the accompanied violence can be explained away as all you have to do is find precedence. 3 Likes |
