EVILFOREST:

Let me BUTTRESS further.
If it were the WHITE MEN that are in charge of tapping PALMWINE from Palm Trees by now we would have seen a MECHANIZED TAPPING SYSTEM.

U can imagine that after all these YEARS of Turmoil, no BLACK MAN has ever come up with a pulley system to enable people tap PALMWINE.

OLD MEN still use ROPES, suffering and exposing themselves to SPINAL CORD injuries and Paralysis.
Most Men in the VILLAGES are Bedridden today because of such falls.

It's a force whether as a result of space-time curvature or bending, it's still a force. I too know dey worry you!

That gravity is a force where as, it just the result of the curving of spacetime in the presence of matter and energy.

BODMAS

Then we were taught it means: Bracket of Division Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction.


Now, as I learn further, got to know it means:


Bracket, Order, Division, Multiplication and Addition.

My government teacher taught me that:

1. If you are a public office holder (governor/president), your wife is not expected to be pregnant throughout your stay in office.

2. You can't contest for public office while you are occupying a public office. You must resign first before being qualified to contest. For example if you are a president and wants to contest for second term you must resign first. You can't stay in the office and contest.

Hear the word of the Sovereign LORD o simple one:

Does a clay pot dare argue with its maker, a pot that is like all the others?
Does the clay ask the potter what he is doing?
Does the pot complain that its maker has no skill?--Isaiah 45:9

I have made everything; that's how it all came to be. I, the LORD, have spoken.--Isaiah 66:2

I wonder why a Nigerian/African be an atheist. American, we understand most of them if not all might not have seen or believe in ghosts, spirits, spiritual charms, powerful Herbalists, the way pant stealing have been rampant just for ritual, ritualist harvesting human parts for money ritual, real miracle by religious scholars and many more. We Nigerian/African must have seen atleast one of this, on social media or real life or have Been told about it. Why will someone say NO supreme being exists, No god, godess, God. If you are a Nigerian especially and still claim to be an atheist, you are just ignorant, tired of the restrictions of religion (i.e you want to be free) or you are deceiving yourself, period.
