Mr, Kikuyu and Dr,Onyango go on a camping trip,set up their tent,and fall asleep.Some hours later,the Kikuyu wakes his faithful friend

"Dr.Onyango,look up at the sky and tell what you see".
Dr.Onyango replies,"I see millions of stars"
"What does that tell you?" Mr.Kikuyu asked?

Dr.Onyango ponders for a minute.
"Astronomically speaking,it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.

Astrologically,it tells me that Saturn is in Leo.
Time wise,it appears to be approximately a quarter past three.

Theologically,its evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and significant.
Meteorologically,it seems we have a beautiful day tomorrow.

Or what does it tell you,Mr.Kikuyu?"

The Kikuyu is silent for a moment,then speaks.

"Dr.Onyango,you kubafu,foko jembe,brari uji baridi! It means someone has stolen our tent!!!!!!!!!!!"

@Gogeter

You pick the glass, raise it the way your local parish priest raises the charis, swipe it to one side and back to the other and then place it down. Hope that solves the simple question. Reptiles think simple. I am one of them, and so are you. So let us praise the lord.

Am still looking for the passage in the bible which says, "Woman, be submissive to your husband. Husband, love your wife".
Please, someone, give me the book and verse.

@Surealligator

Colossians 3:18-19: Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them.

Ephesians 5:22-33:Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands.

Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish. In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, because we are members of his body. “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church. However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

Thanks homelygirl. My argument was that a wife who is submissive to her husband will most often than not make the husband love her automatically even when there are unavoidable differences in the home. What is your take on the same if you are actually a homelygirl. On these same pages, we have met male females.

Well Surealligator, I believe the reverse works better. A husband who loves his wife (and shows it by action) will more ofter than not receive submissiveness from her. My argument is, how can I not submit to a man who is good to me, loves me and shows it to me, it is an automatic reaction. On the contrary, failure to love me (hence failure to exhibit related actions) will be met with same reaction, read zero submissiveness.

I agree with Homelygirl. For me to submit to you then you have to show me that you are actually worth it and you deserve it

some of the solutions for creating employment are simple...
take the CBD & downtown - just let the GoK provide security and:

- businesses will close later and later into the night until it
reaches such a time they operate 24-7-365,
- the workers have to eat supper and even breakfast so restaurants
will stay open late (more jobs created)
- these workers and those of restaurants have to commute to work,
therefore PSVs will work 24-7 (more jobs created)
- the businesses operating late need service providers (more jobs)..

@homelygirl

Let me play the devils advocate..... how will a man love a woman who is not submissive to him? I think these things would have to go together.... not waiting for one to prove himself/herself. its a commitment to love her and for her to submit without on condition that..... it wont work..... what if the man is waiting for you to be submissive so that he can love you unconditionally and you are waiting for him to love you so that you can submit? you get my drift?
