Nobleval: I've been wondering...almost every traditions or cultures promotes the "fact" that when elderly people curse or blesses somebody it surely must come to pass. I've searched the internet for any article or facts supporting this belief but sadly I haven't come across one. Even the bible seems to support the motion..atleast the one I know {Esau and Jacob's incident}..why don't you conduct a novel research in the field, you could combine with other researchers and conduct a twenty year study. Even seeking foreign grants for it. |

Nobleval: can you elaborate more on that? Please...Take the topic of this thread and make it a research work. This research is too advanced for first degree so better for second degree or Ph.D. At the end you can publish the result in a reputable journal. |

It's only God that decides what happens in everyone's lives. Forget all those naija movies and the superstitious story we have been told just to scare us into believing & make us not to do what will make the elderly curse us. Anyone can curse cause there is power in our tongue. A curse disrupts a person's life and makes it work the other way round. There are 2 things that makes a curse work : 1.)if God wants it 2.)if you are guilty. The bible (prov 26:2) already said no curse cause less shall come (no 1 can curse you if you haven't done anything wrong) . I don't believe in it curses , but it's better to be on the safer side and not do what will make anyone curse you. |

Nobleval: great. I'll think about thatyeah, you could limit it to a region of nigeria though or state but then it becomes less powerful as a research. If you choose to do it then source for funds, you could partner with your lecturers especially those trying to earn points to become professors, you could be a co/corresponding author while the main sponsor gets credit as first author. |

A genuine curse from an elderly person to a younger person who did wrong to him/her come to pass in the person's life unless the person cursed goes back to the elderly for forgiveness. Be the person yuor biological parents or not.Youths should aviod situation that that will attract a curse from teh elderly even if that person is not your own biological father. So one need to be careful over issues like this. |

a lot of pple will hardly remember when d curse was place on dem. dere was a case of Shina RAMBO. I believe a lot of pple can still remember d den notorious armed robber. He said he was curse when he was still unborn in d mother womb as a result of quarrel between d mother and an elderly woman.. he said d old woman was so bitter dat she place d curse and d mother wave it aside(not seeing any harm in it). but it came to pass on d child. it is a well publish story |

Those who probably Dont believe in the efficacy of blessing and curses probably grew up in cities ( born and bred). If you were born in a typical village setting , you will understand that there are powers behind blessings and curses from time immemorial. even bible corroborates this. Thread carefully and be careful who u cross and be strong in your faith. |

Davijunson: Ask Benfica....dey'll tell you if it's a Fact or superstition.yes o let whoever wants to verify ask the club and its fans whether curses actually follow ppl. |
Re: Elderly People's Curse And Blessing: Superstion Or Fact? by Xyge(m): 8:09am On Aug 04, 2014 |
I do believe in the efficacy of utterances (curses...and blessings). Hear what the Bible says regarding this: .....a CURSE without a CAUSE (has no effect).. Can't remember exactly where it's written tho.. |

Nobleval:What is God for in your post? He doesn't exist in the first place and that is a fact! I am being sincere with myself. |
Re: Elderly People's Curse And Blessing: Superstion Or Fact? by Nobody: 10:56pm On Nov 02, 2014 |
all4naija:why do you say so dear? |
Re: Elderly People's Curse And Blessing: Superstion Or Fact? by Nobody: 10:59pm On Nov 02, 2014 |
Nobleval:I said that because he doesn't exist. I know that as we have come to understand it is man's idea to control others and lack of understanding of the physical phenomena in the universe. Idea of existence of a God is based on doctrines. |
Re: Elderly People's Curse And Blessing: Superstion Or Fact? by Nobody: 11:09pm On Nov 02, 2014 |
all4naija:who knows...this world is full of mysteries. The existence of God cannot be easily dismissed you know. |
Re: Elderly People's Curse And Blessing: Superstion Or Fact? by Nobody: 11:13pm On Nov 02, 2014 |
Nobleval:There is no misery. It is only lack of our ability to find out about something that makes it looks like misery. There is not God at all. He is not needed for life to exist. |
