Dear candidate for the 2019 elections in Nigeria. Do you believe that all men are created equal and deserve a basic level of comfort and dignity? That is the belief where democracy really works. If you don’t, you can’t facilitate development in a democracy. #democracy
How many countries have moved from the so called 3rd World to the so called 1st World in the last 100 years through American-style democracy? Hard to find. Few that developed had another brand of democracy. Elite in developing nations will not accept equality of all. #democracy
Dear citizen, you have to sift thoroughly to find candidates that believe you deserve to be served with dignity and excellence, not enslaved or colonized. Please sift well. Check their track records. Your future and that of generations after you is at stake. #democracy

1. Jesus saw a dimension to His life that was not a mere improvement on where He was. It was an evolution to the next level. He illustrated it with the multiplication of the seed (John 12:20-25) #MuchFruit
2. Making major shifts God’s way requires total dedication to God. And this dedication to God is a death and resurrection experience. #MuchFruit
3. Dedication to God is the surrender or yielding of one's life to God so that He can use it as He pleases, whether it is convenient or not. That is how a Christian moves to the much fruit dimension. #MuchFruit

1. Gratitude is function of focus and it depends on who or what you are looking at. When we focus on the situation, we may not feel grateful but when we focus on God, the situation pales in significance. (Heb. 3:17-19) #Gratitude
2. Satan always tries to use what is not working to define us by shifting our focus off all that is working. #Gratitude
3. We must learn to thank God no matter what happens. Thanksgiving ensures that we stay in the centre of God’s will. (1st Thess. 5:18) #Gratitude

Dear candidate for the 2019 elections in Nigeria. Some with good intentions have been elected, only to realise those in their cabinet only wanted to share money. Do you have the moral standing, vision and ability to persuade such to put the nation’s interest first? #election2019
What will you do about the ability of the average Nigerian to create wealth? Will you remove the obstacles on their path, including policies and practices, knowing that you will by so doing remove those obstacles for yourself, your children and their own children? #election2019
Fellow Nigerian, do you have the character and love for country that we demand of leaders? No one person can change a state or country. If we’re not made of the character we demand of leaders, they may achieve nothing, and the elections may be of no use after all. #election2019

Everything is 80% heritable. (I apologize for an earlier thread where I said 50; mea culpa). This is the reactionary’s hidden revelation, his revolt against the modern world. From this grim realization, much follows
“Progress”—that hideous name! How quickly progressive ideals lead to genocide! And do you know why?
It sounds so innocuous, “progress,” of course we want to make progress, who wouldn’t? But so rarely do we think about what “progress” entails. Who has set the goals of progress before us? What tyrant would dare?

This country has always been a struggle between two sides: the loftiness of our ideals of freedom and equality, and the ugliness of racism that has been exploited for profit, control, and the maintenance of a status quo. Pick the side you’re on.
For instance, how can one believe in “all men are created equal” and also support an LE culture that allows black ppl to be 250% more likely to be killed by police than whites?
How, if you believe in inalienable right to pursue happiness, can you be okay with border agents separating children from their parents when they come here seeking asylum?

LONG THREAD:

On the subject of #PitbullDropOff and cognitive dissonance in American life and politics.
Whether you are new to this twitter account or a long-time follower, you are probably aware that I have recently found myself at the heart of a controversy over a viral hashtag: #PitbullDropOff
A few weeks ago, I tweeted that I had joined the ranks of those who were picking up unwanted pitbull terriers being advertised as free giveaways and delivering them to animal shelters which performed euthanasia. I did not come up this idea.

In the America 1930s, a new kind of Christianity was emerging. It was aimed at the wealthy, and was supported by massive companies. The aim was to change Christian meaning.
But it didn't really start to pick up until 'The New Deal ' which was to help to poor.
This new Christianity, you didn't need to read the Bible, but you had attend church.
Now this was only aimed at the rich and middle classes.
The preacher would clearly state, that you having money was a gift from God, and the poor were being punished by God.
Yes, massive chunks from the Bible was ignored, and in fact their Bibles had eradicated Jesus helping the poor.
Being rich and Christian meant you were truly blessed by God. But in reality, it really did create #FakeChristians
Decades of this, now so integrated into the
