I love it when you use your reasoning "abilities". And i will try not to get sentimental. Though its not easy. Keep using your "abilities". One day, you will know where you stand. No more "slowly drifting" like a log of wood on the river niger.

freecocoa: Now you sound like you are hurt cos I'm using my reasoning abilities, please don't be. If I'm going to stand somewhere, I like to be convinced for sure its the right place to stand so please forgive me for taking my time before making outrageous/ridiculous conclusions.

Btw when I said 'Christians' I didn't mean every tom, d*ck and harry who calls himself a follower of christ, the word "christian" has been abused so much that we often forget how to use it, now when you hear that word, the best thing to do is choose if it applies to you or not, heck, even men who commit murder claim to be christians too, just know where you stand and waka , don't get all sentimental on me, thank you.

I have known you for a while, and you have always "slowly drifted towards agnosticim". Drift finally kwanu. Let us know where you are. All i said was: "dont generalise" it nothing to get emotiional over. Sorry if my language was harsh. Was unintentional.

freecocoa: Here is another reason why I keep asking questions, just how am I supposed to be a good christian with all these division?

Little wonder I'm slowly drifting towards Agnosticism.

NigeriaArmy15: Yaba left is your home, you can enjoy with your fellow Mad people, afterall you are their president, manage your cabinet wisely #junky

Bro, i like the way you say your proof will "outlaw" our postulations but we are Christians. We are not under "the law". We are alrready "outlaws". Just give us your version too. Chances are that you will be "outlawed" too.

usmanktg2: Alhamdulillahi
Abeg Christians no vex!
I have read all the answers given here and none of these answers seems to be fair judgement or absolutely correct & balance within all aspects of life.

I swear today, my steadfastness have increased in Islam.
Only and yes only Islam will give a perfect answer that will suffice and outlaw all answers given from post 1 to post 100. inshaAllah, I will compile a complete answer to this, which I am going to source from different Islamic books.

Hahahaha. How can you be talking to yourself? #classic mad man behaviour. Lolzzz.

NigeriaArmy15: he was onetime secretary of Mad Men association and he s presently the Chairman of Mad People association of Nigeria

Well, this is not entirely true, as mental illness is not about the body, but about the mind. Losing an arm could have psychological effects on a man's mind and make him temporarily insane. I think what the op refers to here as "mad men" are people who have no control over their mind.

bigtt76: Their body is the one harboring the illness and not their soul! The body do not go to heaven or hell but rather their soul So if you are an amputee, your soul will not be an amputee.

Are u nigeriaarmy15? Using another moniker? Well one monkey looks like the other. Enjoy your forests, am not interested.

Lachynos2k2: i am an ochicha monkey living in sambasia

You are right. But truth is a lot of "discussions" just turn out to be "dissing" and "cussing" without making "incursions" into the matter at hand. I try to avoid them generally.

iam_ord: this is another point that needs to be discussed .. re incarnation

This is part of the problems christians are facing. Dont generalise us all. I am a christian, anglican, but i personally belive in reincarnation becos its biblical and i can prove it. So, if you have been taught by your pastors that reincarnation does not exist, then dont say all christians dont believe in reincarnation.

freecocoa: What are you talking about? Since when do Christians believe in reincarnation? Or is there something you want to tell me?

If i say i was your mothers father in my previous life, you will think i am insulting you. Why will you ask me such a mundane question? Behave o.

Lachynos2k2: where and who were u in your former life?

Am not sure anybodi here is stopping you from ing ogboni. Stop ranting. If you get liver, go blend instead of forming african supemacist here on nairaland. Ogboni na beans? Yeye fowl.

shaggy007: Rubbish article. I'd rather be a proud Ogboni member than a Muslim or Christian.

While you guys run away and belittle our African traditional religions, the whites embrace our African religions.

There are more whites in Ogboni (ROF) than Africans.

See how they've deceived you? They brought in missionaries to introduce Christianity, while silently stealing our true religion.

These are the little 'gods' that God has created to help us. Why do you think God doesn't "answer prayers"? He has given you other 'gods' to make it easier to communicate with him. But people have ignored the little 'gods' and think they can pray directly to God. Dream on and keep deceiving yourselves.

1st commandment: thou shall not worship any other god before me

Make sure you acknowledge The Lord before communicating with other 'gods'

I tire for Africans o.

It is a coincidence that runs much deeper. Very kwackish statement. All religions have their roots in God and the devil. Paganism is of the devil bro. Change and become celebrated like this ogboni repentant.

PAGAN 9JA:
Nonsense. He is just an Ogboni member infiltrating your church. Give him some time..

Have you ever wondered why Yoruba religion is the strongest Traditional Faith in Africa?

and probably the world after Hinduism, CTRs,etc.

I have a distinct feeling that it is because of the Ogboni Brotherhood that Ifa Orisha holds a lot of power in Yorubaland and couldnt fall prey to missionary activity.

Makes me wonder why only Yoruba religion survived in the diaspora out of all other tribes during the slave trade. .


Is it just a coincidence?

Or is it something that runs much deeper. .

The same thing happened in the Bible. that man...

Hahaha. Said nigerian army that runs away from common bokoharams. Cowards.

NigeriaArmy15: PMMA...(President of Mad Men association) is talking from experience

Nice question. Authentic mentally handicapped people will be reborn and reincarnated, just like you and i.

Who is youngsix?

Ohkay o. If you say so. Lets "guide" them to make the decisions we "want" them to make abi?

LordVoldemort:
Guides in making decision and not after

I shuld be askin u dat. Read ur posts again and u will see where u said parents are just guides.

$

LordVoldemort:

Y will you let dem make the decision be4 showing them the pros and cons.....

Lolzzz. Thank God that at least "i used to be reasonable". Truth is, if they make the decisions before you show them the pros and cons, they will make a lot of mistakes and learn the hard way. Most teenagers are extremists because it the formative years of their adulthood. So letting them decide important issues means letting hormones and instincts decide.

LordVoldemort:

Wasn't expecting this from you, you use to ne reasonable.....cos your parent bully you to do everything they want and cos they pay ur bills doesn't it mean they made the best decision u.

A good parent don't make decision for his kid, he let him makes his decision and show him the pros and cons of his decision, parentz should be more of a guide.

My point exactly. An ambigous question is a silly question. If the op has already specified the age bracket of the kidss, what answer is he lookin for again? When should teenagers take control? When they are TEENAGERS. Duh. Silly question.
Someone up there innodon said 21. Is 21 a teenager? Dumb question.

xynerise:
Just humbly say you don't understand the question

What sort of silly question is this? Or maybe its a trick question. Parents should let their teenage children make decisions for themselves when pigs begin to fly. Unless a child is orphaned, or the parents are poor, the rule still remains that whoever pays the piper, dictactes the tune.
