In my opinion, the strongest fundamental problem with Nigeria is our decrepit value system. Specifically, we have placed money as the most valuable personal possession. This is the reason corruption is so rife and rich people get a different set of laws in action from the poor.

I have been seeing this claim around for a while, and while I have attempted to debunk it several times, I have never written anything comprehensive on it. However, I was surprised to find @DrOlufunmilayo making this claim again today. I hope to put it to bed once and for all.

This is my unsolicited but humble REBUTTAL of every assertion made in this thread. I also dig some digging, and my answer is... Well, I'll let you decide. π
Yes, this is the reason Paul gave in 1 Timothy 2:12-13.
About your car analogy, as long as the Bible says a 1957 car model is better than a 2017 model, it is accepted as truth by Christians. So there's that.
Hi guys! Here are some of what I consider to be the best YouTube videos where you can easily learn about evolution from. Do well to read the sources in the "description" section of all the videos.
