naijadeyhia: "feelings were put by God to serve His purpose but the devil distorted them" Who allegedly created all things.. This motherfuvker you call god... Need I say more... Abi was it another god that created devil/evil.. If the shiiit head can stop evil but chooses not to, then the blame lies on him, not his alleged creation. Your god is overly dramatic... Acting like a little biiitch.. |

krattoss: Okay. So if we apply your theory of causality that means that, because every action has a cause, some Nigerian politicians chop money because the money was just there and they couldn't help themselves. We shouldn't blame the politicians because the money provoked them and if the money wasn't there, the urge would not be there in the first place. So we should get rid of all the money so the politicians that were "rightfully" elected can do their jobs. Am I using your theory correctly? I wish you could see how hard I'm rolling my eyes at you right now. 5 Likes |

iRepNaija1:in so far as i have been proved wrong by some peeps here, u were just showcasing ur ignorance at the anology of causality. Whether the after effect of the theory is good or bad, thats none of my biz. Politicians dont just steal money for the sake of decoration. There is a cause that makes them steal the money. Be it greed, problems or unforseen circumstances. I dont knw whether u re just getting a clue of what am saying? 1 Like 1 Share |

[quote author=Humblebloke post=36288180] Jesus died for the sins of humanity.... We have got to accept him as our saviour cos he sacrificed himself to himself( some christians say he is God)....... We ve all got a conscience, we know what's good and bad...... Can't you live a noble life without christ.......When you do a good deed; you attribute it to Jesus, When you commit sin, you blame the devil(that is irresponsibility @ its peak) You still haven't shown me yet.Where does the bible preach that good deeds should be attributed to God and vice versa,these are the words of men don't be confused.Also if evil deeds are devil empowered why would we be held accountable for them. I think you should come again. |

He is talking about lust in general as a Christian. lf I see a scantily dressed ladies that am attracted to I might lust for some seconds and finally control myself but that image is burned in my memory for a long time. If I see different woman continously throughout the week like that I will still control my self but will go home imagining hw it would be to taste them. imagine their unclothedness that is what is called lost. for I have not carried out any physical action yet but have sinned in my heart.

Waoh! see interests generated here. It may be good for us to dig far into the reason why there are definitions for what a woman and a man dressing is in any society. The fall of humanity was achieved by direct target on woman. This is because woman is the spiritual leader of the entire humanity. Her volition will from eternity to eternity, direct the cause and fate of all. A man will never be able to garner enough capacity to withstand her powers. This is the reason why great men/women of old put in place so much rules and norms to protect her delicate nature. These have been misplaced and even rubbished in implementation to the point of even making her look lesser as a specie. it was ok for women to fight for their right and recognition, but that process has also been hijacked by the power of evil and darkness. The whole thing was now taken beyond the safe boundary. What we have at the moment are women (leader of humanity) bringing themselves to all time low, struggling continually to advance in the direction of nudity. Submitting to the antics of evil forces (the crafty serpent) by continually seeking attention in the wrong direction. The ambience and good motherly feel which the women of yore use to bring to bear, have been replace with ugliness and terrible conduct exuding pungent smell everywhere. The clothing of a woman should radiate pure beauty and nobility not to elicit base cravings. You need to go back and see how women dress in the old to confirm this. What we call progress now is tearing down and exposing what is most precious to woman thereby creating very dark spiritual cloud around her. And it accounts to why many are regarded as playing thing for men. As a matter of fact, humanity is doomed. Man will be unable to hold themselves back from reacting or responding to the effect of the emanation of woman. Man simply do not have that capacity. Even when some men can withstand or be repulsed by these ugly form, the generality of men will finally fall. That is not to say they will not be accountable for their actions. I laugh at those who says there is no responsibility for the woman. Nothing is really free. Everything will avenge itself in thousands of folds. |

krattoss:Here's another one... How about when they're about to burn one of those thieves on a street in Lagos(i do not support jungle justice btw). You stand in front of the crowd and say "well there is what i call_causality... Why would the owner charge His/Her phone in an open place?" and I hope you will not be added to the roaring flames. This is because all the crowd hears is; It is ok to steal a phone as long as the owner decides to leave it out there because to you it is already ok to rape a woman who does not subscribe to your standards of decency. Both scenarios are immensely messed up. And what do you mean by "if a woman dresses indecent she is asking to raped" No! Sweetheart. She wears what she wears coz she likes her attire and is comfortable in it. In the same vein what are you asking for or expecting when vomiting such ignorant statements? And in public! Are you not ashamed? Are you asking to be slapped? 2 Likes 1 Share |

ikwubaba:What exactly did women wear in the old days that is supposed to be our benchmark. I recently came across a picture of an igbo woman in the 1930's on the internet. She tied a short wrapper on her waist that did not even fall to her knees and from waist upwards was bare. Yes! Her two breasts stood proudly to the sun. I came across a similar description of a woman's attire in Buchi Emecheta's Joy's of Motherhood also set during colonial times. If a woman wore that out now, you're ilk would rape her in broad daylight saying she was more than asking for it. Hypocrisy at its highest. Western culture nonsense. "A woman is the spiritual head of the world"__what manner of fuckery is this! Is that why the four or is it five major religions all have men as the sole source of original revelations and all favour a patriarchal order for clergy because lets face it God never seems to reveal nothin to a woman. From Prophet Muhammad (swt), Abraham, Jesus, Gautama Buddha to the most recent Bahaullah and Joseph Smith. These men are all similar in so many regard but I'm sure being female is not one of them. And what do you mean "men can try and try but they cannot control themselves". Somehow people suddenly find the will power for discipline when their doctor says "cut back or eliminate so-and- so food coz of your health" or their boss says "this is a memo, change your work ethic or you'll get the boot". But when it comes to women, why bother exercising restraint when you can always blame her for her dressing or walking at odd hours or giving you an inviting look or some other bullshit. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

herald9:johnnydon22. Just followed you. This post baffles me a lot. I'm like really? Are you trying to justify RAPE?? The blame is on the perpetrator not on the victim. What is your excuse for the rape of young children. That they should have covered up? Why did they sit on some so-called uncle's lap? Is it also the fault of people shot and killed in armed robberies? I guess they were just asking to be killed walking around not wearing bullet proof vests. How about guys molested by older men? Well toughluck to them. How could they be walking around looking so damn fine to their gay uncles and elder broses. What were they thinking tempting them like that. "You can't possibly throw some grains at chicken and expect it to walk past them." Same thing applies here if we are to follow your logic. Plus I don't know about men being chickens but I know that women are definitely not grain. We're homo sapiens with a complex brain structure that beats a piece of grain. And reducing male-female interaction to such an analogy is just plain stupid. If you're a chicken, fine! But pls don't presume to speak for all men. Again, the victim is not to blame for any attack. In an ideal world, people should not even be going around attacking anyone.. Let alone having their actions defended. One day you might be the victim, it doesn't have to be rape. Could be something worse. Pray you aren't also victim-shamed. 4 Likes 1 Share |

herald9:FrancisTony 's reasoning is quite alright. It is people who condone rape like you that I fear for always. I would prefer a million FrancisTony stroll with me through my quarters at night than meet you at a marketplace in broad daylight. For who knows, even in the daylight, the barbaric nature of owning, possessing by force which is left for animals in the wild and dictators like Hitler and co could come upon you and you would push me into an empty stall. Or maybe you will claim "THE URGE" is too strong and attempt it on the streets. Question; how many girls have you raped? (context is irrelevant because unlike murder there is nothing like "self-defence rape). Have you tried to rape any of your female relatives, maybe mother or sister? Do you rape madwomen *those mad women, always tattered but scantily dressed* Do you do it professionally, you know like get paid. You must be for you to defend it so passionately.

TheSonOfMark:So what stops you from trying to rape a stripper? Might it be those well muscled bouncers at the door or the the ability of the stripper herself to scratch the living daylight out of you or probably its the thought of spending an avoidable night in jail so you just exercise restraint and finish your night peacefully. So you do you have discipline and self-restraint? From your comments I thought some of you were wild animals looking for the next tree to hump.. 3 Likes 1 Share |

TheSonOfMark:This is silly! Am I the only seeing how ludicrous your post is! Those women 'dress to kill' not to be raped. They dress to steal the show not to have pleasure forcefully taken from their body without their consent. Men dress to kill all the time. With those body hug shirts that show each ripple of their muscle and outline their six pack. And those skinny jeans which outlines that 'bulge'. And then those shorts! My God! Ever heard of a 'foot fetish'. But it does not mean they want to be robbed by the first group of miscreants they pass by coz they presumable look rich. Or dragged into a building and butt-fuccked coz they look attractive to some guy. Be careful about what you justify. ANYBODY could justify ANYTHING with that logic. And I mean...

TheSonOfMark:Humblebloke Johnydon22 Williamso FrancisTony Misblah Fellas, thanks for restoring my faith in Humanity. Williamso permit me to rephrase your question. We're dealing with 2 things here. The CAUSE_ indecent dressing; which is subjective. The EFFECT_ rape; which most times involves force. Lets say TheSonOfMark one fine Sunday, you wore your Sunday best. That starched shirt that crinkles when you raise your arm an inch, that skinny jean that smells like you ordered it from abroad, then those shiny Jordans or Mocassin's or whatever. Or maybe just a really beautiful native wear. Maybe sporting Raybans; Aba made(not judging). That cool wristwatch and then you stash your wallet and phone somewhere safe so no one knows you have a wallet or even how bulgy it is. And you set out. ___CAUSE Now there is a miscreant on your path to the church. And as you approach. He's thinking-: "omo! See as dis guy gaj finish. See im baff up" "i sure say im go hold bar weeeell" *"Dat watch for im hand eh, i fit sell am for dat kind 5k for Alaba international market"* **"dis bros feel say im go just fine commot, pass my front and im no go drop something for broseses"** So he trails you and rams a gun down your throat demanding for all you have on you including your gadgets and accessories, if possible your attire.__EFFECT *notice the asterisk and double there in the miscreants train of thought* Who is at fault here? 3 Likes 1 Share |

@Mariesucre seems you were once a victim. I could feel your pain in those posts, it runs deep. But I wonder how that could've happened, cause even your face alone could scare a thousand rapists. Now listen, I wasn't condoning rape, what I did was disagree with Johnydon22, who shifted all the blames to the male folks without condemning those girls who 'dress to kill', which in turn put them at the risk of getting raped. If I could recall properly, Johnny asserted that, a girl could dress the way she likes, irrespective of the imaginations that type of dressing could be conjuring in a guy's mind. Isn't that another way of setting a bait for the fish and expecting the fish not to pounce on it? Forgive me if I didn't put it the right way. All I wanted was your safety before rights. Because you can't pursue your rights when you're not even safe. I love women and respect them, without women none of us would've been breathing, so I can't wish them any harm. Therefore, encourage your women folks to dress properly to avert some disaster. Remember it's the way you dress that you'll be addressed. Your dressing could earn you respect.... Or otherwise.

MarieSucre:[b]I love your thinking and sense of reasoning, i am utterly glad we have women in this african society who can speak up for themselves and the right of women. Sadly many women in our society have resigned to the fate of this injustice, most african women subscribe to this misogynistic concepts in this male dominated world based on the male dominated cultural and religious ideologies. This injustice of inequality has gone too far and it is time the world said NO to such degrading injustice. . . It is time the world realized that male and female are all equal genders of the same species and none is better or superior to the other. We live in a very insane society where injustice is clothed and washed in the guise of a moral concept. What type of society would blame a girl who just got raped for wearing what she wore instead of blaming and prosecuting the perverted idiot who perpetrated such barbaric act? What type of society would subject a girl who just got gang raped by 7 guys to a hundred lashes punishment for going out alone instead of prosecuting the idiots who could not restrain themselves from acting on their perverted urges like we saw recently in a saudi court. What type of idiotic moral code would stipulate if a girl is raped, the raper should pay her father some amounts of money and take her off to be his wife not minding if the girl is ok with it or not and subjecting the innocent girl to a traumatizing life time of having to wake up and see the face of her raper/abuser everyday and not to mention endure the countless number of long nights now having sex with her raper just like the bible taught It is both sickening as it is saddening and the world needs to take a stand against this nonsense. Where men blame women for their own weakness and lack of self control, why not go to a public beach and rape women clad in bikinis and some stark naked since one cannot control ones urge when he sees a woman's body. These stupendous, misogynistic, idiotic and religious chauvinistic ideologies all hyped and basked in the sun rays of religious and cultural basis should be resisted however we can. A man has the right to wear what suits him and so does a woman. i have never seen women trying to impose their own ideology of decency on men so why should the reverse be the case. You have a good head on your neck and i admire that a lot, Africa needs more women and girls like you of Chimamanda Adichie's caliber, keep it up. Men of quality respect women's equality... Considering women inferior creatures like religion and cultures have taught, my question is "Is that good and right for the world?" I will push the Follow button too for you, your types are the kind of girls that move my interest, girls with brains not beauty without brains. [/b] 8 Likes 3 Shares |
