| I'm not doubting that they saw something... but how they figure it was Jesus? ... and the priest had the power to make it appear again?... I believe the priest set up this hoax to get people to come to his church...more people more money. | | |

Forum / Religion / Re: Nigerian Homosegxwal Pastor Introduced |
on: 2-08-2010 01:07 AM
| This is not about judging nor sinning. It's about hypocrosy. How can a pastor be preaching from the Bible when he chooses to do the opposite of what the Bible condemns as sinful? Already we are learning in this forum that some people see nothing wrong. Maybe until they learn that their son or nephew got molested. We have seen the spread, strength and influence of the gay community in the US ... from coming out of the closet to marriage. If that's what Africa embraces then I hope they have considered the consequences. If not, this seed that is planted should not be allowed to take root. | | |

| If the Naija actors threatened Majid because he's taking their roles then wouldn't they also threaten Van Vicker and Dumelo? I would agree that too many of the producers as well as actors are unprofessional and think they they are the $#*#. I hope Majid follows in Gene's footsteps and appear in well thought out movies instead of the half-^$$ dumb movies of which Van Vicker is now a major star. Nollywood is losing it's appeal. | | |

| I am still trying to understand why is that most replies have nothing to do with the topic. Aren't we supposed to be sharing and discussing our views on the topic? Or are we supposed to attack the poster or contributor and his religion if his views does not go along with our religion? @Derbi...why would you be saying you know me well when you haven't a clue? I have never claimed to be of any religion and that can easily be checked. If you can be so scandalous on a religious message board I can't imagine the damage you create in real life. | | |

Forum / Religion / Re: Why Islam forbids pork |
on: 4-07-2010 08:35 PM
| The Bible never named the pig as being unclean. It gave guidelines and from those one can decide if an animal is clean/wholesome to eat. For instance, an animal with split hooves and chews the cud is good /wholesome to eat. The cow/sheep has split hooves and chews the cud therefore it is good to eat. The pig has split hooves but does not chew the cud therefore it is unclean. Fish with scales is considered clean while those without are considered unclean. But in the end it claims all is good to eat if you think it is good. In modern times scientists are now finding out that the unclean foods are really not good for our health. Casting evil spirits into the nearby swine has nothing to do with whether the pig is clean/unclean to eat. That's my 2 cents/naira! | | |

| Think maybe he didn't trust her enough? Did she just jump into the arms of the first guy that offered to marry her? Or while Mr 7-Years was at work Mr Fiance was working her? I think both of them were living in Playa's Paradise. | | |

| Nice post! This was my next topic. I tried finding out why Islam forbids pork and no one I asked was sure. What about the story about the pig being "blessed" because it killed the snake that was about to attack Prophet Muhammad (PBOH) at the roadside? What's that about? I do appreciate this post. I understand why the Christians are advised not to eat pork. About the pig, I don't agree with you that "the pig is a naturally lazy and indulgent in sex; dirty,greedy and gluttonous; dislikes sunlight and lacks the will to fight" As someone who reared pigs I can say that's all hogwash. On carrying diseases; the pig has a thick layer of fat covering it's flesh and that fat can be home to from germs to snake venom without affecting the pig. Shark is to sea as pig is to land!

| Hey!...easy on the parents. They dare not tell their kids what to watch nor deny them access to the television. Maybe the kids watching their blue movies too. They have to blame somebody. Why not Aki and Pawpaw?...afterall...when you want to pick a fight you pick on the smallest guys. | | |

Forum / Relationships & Romance / Can this happen to you? |
on: 31-05-2010 10:17 PM
| A female friend who I hadn't seen for a long time related her experience to me. She had a crush on a guy about 5 years ago but before she developed a friendship with him she left the country.About a 18 months ago she bumped into the guy who had also emigrated. They hit it off immediately and became a couple. Just over a year into this affair' the guy died...cause of death...AIDS related. Since then she has been doing HIV tests every 2 months. Fear and panic is written all over her face and she does not pick and choose with whom she shares her peril. She is now devastated and stressed out. Before this, I can see myself making the same decision based on trust without thinking much about what really went on during the missing years. This was an eye opener for me. Do you think this can happen to you? | | |

Forum / Religion / God, Allah, Jehovah ...who is He in your mind's eye? |
on: 27-05-2010 12:01 AM
| When we pray ....hmmmm.....when you pray to your God do you have an image in your mind of Him? If so in what shape or form do you see that image? I'm curious because if I'm told eg. two beings believed to be from Jupiter were seen entering a house through a window, I'll make up an image of what they look like. But when it comes to the Creator, I never have an image. It is always blank. Do you see an image? | | | |
