omoovie:


It's left to us to fix our little part of the world and start being the change because as they say "charity begins at home".

I like to believe the main essence of the poster's thread is what I extracted from your response above. That should be our focus; how to impove our societal values so we earn respect from others as a group and as individuals.

Hi there,i live in canada but abusive words still dey our blood and i am sure we cant do without it every day

@eroyapa
agree we all live in abusive environment and it can be avoided or restricted to enhance a civic and responsible black communities that we give value to human existence.
I was at idumota in Lagos island yesterday and i was able to correct a very African
spiritual abusive exchange btw two people.U need to know what lead to the "OGUN LO MA PA E ," 5NAIRA CHANGE IS THE CAUSE.I TAKE MY TIME AND PARSUADE THE TWO PEOPLE.
Lets correct the impression of lose society and be patriotic in polishing our society.

To avoid the Lagos or Nigeria mouth spilling curses,then u need to understand what can lead to abusive words.
Nairalanders what are the causes of abusive words in our society.

@POSTER

I beg to differ greatly. In this america all you have to do is stare at someone for a microsecond longer than a second and you will be hearing fucking bitch, mother fucking ass-hole. kiss my ass you nigga etc.

their abuse is not the way our abuse is, in that they do not CURSE themselves that "your life will be bad" etc. instead they call themselves sexually related insults or insults related to the anus and private parts.

I beg to differ you need to come to america and try stepping on someones foot by accident in new york city and see how they will call you a prostitute as if they have purchased said service from you hand (butt) before.

And its even worst when its interacial you wont hear the end of nigga.

but the advantage they have is that they have a functional avenue to address their grievances called court. if I feel as if my mothers/bosses/husbands/friend/daughter/son's insults have maimed me psychologically, I can take her/him/them to court and sue her/him/them for untold damages over emotional distress.

there is abuse everywhere those arabs like to call themselves sons of dogs a lot. and dont even talk about the russians they are always drunk so they call themselves insults in addition to fighting with themselves.

abuse is everywhere. its because you are in nigeria where there is no judicial system that you feel it more.

on the other hand if the judicial system in nigeria worked better people could sue each other more often and maybe the abuse will lessen not deaden. some say verbal abuse is free speech.

People who are verbally abusive are those who cannot rule their anger. IF you can rule over your anger then you are very powerful

TAKE SURVEY SO WE CAN UNDERSTAND SOME OF THESE THINGS

Of late and also in time past there has been Domestic Abuse by people we believe should know better

I have designed this Questionnaire to know how Domestic Abuse is eating our church. The reason is there is little statistics about Domestic Abuse in churches as many people go to church.

Please we want to hear from everyone but I have restricted the SURVEY to Protestant, Evangelical and Pentecostal churches.

We want to hear also from those in Asia, Caribbean, South America, North America, Australia and The Ocean countries

THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING, its only 21 questions and if you are a pastor then its 25 questions.. God bless
