Rapid growth and development are two essential desires of societies within the third world countries. But corruption had become the only problem to those desires among underdeveloped countries.

Global rating shows African countries especially Nigeria as one of the top most corrupt countries among others including Zimbabwe. The peculiarity of the highest in corruption index is Zimbabwe dollars by all evidence.

In an attempt to be richest among successive governments in the country, currency changes were used to amass excessive wealth. Successive governments introduced higher denominations of currencies up to trillions which caused over 300% inflation rate and complete collapse of the economy. The country has abandoned their currency due to bloated production of the currency in excess, from the onset, in order to allow excessive looting, the monetary policy allowed an excessive inflow and outflow of cash without regular of circulation.

Corruption affects development through inflation, inflation in turn is determined by the greedy forces of production, supply . Those who owns the means of production and distribution monopolizes the price control system to get richer.

So as the low and middle classes struggle to meet the needs provided by the wealthy, they get poorer while , the rich get richer through the exploitative manipulation of the price system. This is one way the development of societies are affected because, only few could be able to get properties and develop themselves.

Corruption in Nigeria and other African countries , corruption runs in a structural pattern . The political class installs people in positions to get returns. In that way , the system is dominated by a clique of allies with one ideology to protect each other's source of wealth.

Corruption in countries are in different forms.

1. Sex for job
2. Buying of job opportunities
3. Nepotism
4. Favouritism
5. Money Laundering or siphoning
6. Bribery.

Among all the fifth item is the major cause of under elopement in Nigeria and other countries. Culture and tradition places a minor role to development in only rural communities where they resist certain development to preserve lands and other historical properties.

In the time past , several ideas have suggested solutions to the problem of underdevelopment in Nigeria. In 2014, the Nigerian Government suggested Restructuring political powers and administration.

So far all the suggestions have failed and obviously, there will not be changes until, the Chinese communist system of administration is adopted.

A public or political leader must not acquire certain properties and nut not be richer than a certain net worth, with a stipulation of death penalty ( death by hanging). This will certainly stop the excessive looting and siphoning of public funds.

What do you think?

Christainity according to the teachings of Christ comes with an upright behavioural system they call righteousness and holiness.

The bible also instructed Christain to avoid some un-christ like behaviors , so the Christain religion stands on moral grounds of ethics and right .

Christainity is all about moral consciousness or conscience, it cannot be separated. The bible also instructed Christains to avoid worldly or immorality.

What are immoralities in this regard, they are evils done against man and the society. Politics is built on greed, desperation, criminality, murder and plotting or conspiracy, aimed at achieving an aim in society.

So you see why the question is right for Christains to separate the church from politics. Pastor Abel Damina thinks he should not politicize his alter because, his congregation is made up of different party members and people without interest in politics.

Machiavelli like other scholars was a radical scholar that hated the conduct of the church due to its weak role in uniting Italy.

The Italian political system had an invasion of new economic order of industrialization and it's imperial powers, the constructive forces of unity were over powered for new economic forces to strive.

The economic powers decentralized the concentrated Italian monarchical authority that needed a centralized system of unity, as at the time of Machiavelli, the Italian State was divided into five large states of Milan, Naples, Venice, republic of Florence and the Papal city state at the center which symbolically was the city of power presided by the Pope.

Though the church was able to perfect a consolidated political system but, the church was more concerned about the worldly and materialistic interest of retaining the political authority of the central Italy.

The Machiavellian interest on the separation of the secular politics from morality or the church was first considered for the preservation of the sanity of the state must be without any sentiment of good or bad.

Though Machiavelli hated the Catholic Papacy as the brain behind the disunity of the Italian State, this according to Machiavelli was as a result of the materialistic and political pursuit of the Papacy.

What was preferred is the political utility of the Church in a Secular state. In a similar view, the spiritual authority of the church should be independent while using the state power for administration and adjudication of justice.

Scholarstic view on the nature of the state described the state as a political entity with no norality in politics.

The state has no relationship with the church and it should be morally isolated from any other obligation outside the religious obligation of maintaining and producing virtuously upright citizens for the state.

As it has been made clear by Machiavelli who saw the morality question in Secular politics as fowl and fowl as morally fair.

Then the questions the church of Christ need to answer from the above views of Machiavelli is whether, the church should be involved with the unfair plays of the state politics, to divide the church, to gain materialistic patronage.

Although individual conduct in social, religious and political setting are geared toward creating means of materialistic achievements, the church must not be part of this crave as an instrument of divine institution with all embodiments of holiness.

The conflicting prophecies that are somehow at variance with the majority expectations of the church, have continued to be means of division within the Christian faith.

It the case of betting, there is no music needed to reduce stress, except other situations like anger after an incident or heartbreaks. Then the type of music at that moment also matters.

Don't listen to emotional lyrics in the case of marital disappointment or relationship disappointment. It will push you into more depression.

The essence of music in times of depression is solely mental distraction so the best music is dance floor music and club music and rap songs.

Bluez, country songs and R and B are the worst songs to listen in times of depression. Another thing is that, the lyrics of any song is important at that point.

Ethics is a part of philosophy that investigates the principles of morality and the social , and religious rules of conduct. It deals with the questions of rightness and wrongness of man's conduct social , religious and political conducts and the issues of idealness towards which individuals works.

What are the actual reasons reas  separate  right from wrong ? These are some of the questions with which ethics premises itself with.

The greater question for Politics is to discover not what Government implement as perceived right but, what they ought to be done as right according to the needs of the people, the nexious between ethics and Politics is clear, in every political discourse the question may be raised whether it is right or wrong.

 And, if we agree with the social saying that, that which is morally wrong cannot be politically right.

we can outrightly say that Politics is conditioned by ethics. Political theory is concerned with the end of the State, by this, the state defines the rights and wrongs of individuals,  the functions of government , the relations of State with other States.

Every of these stipulations has a moral aspect but, they are coined according to the collective interest of a certain class. The end of the State is formulated by the greatest political thinkers and politicians that willed power to themselves in terms of moral values.

For instance, the State comes into existence for the reason of good life. The State exists to promote social good on the largest possible scale , through which individual interest is imposed:

if that objective is to be achieved, the State has moved progressively to the  recognition the  fundamental and legal rights of the state political system, both the economic and private rights of individuals ; the reason of these rights is the membership of man in society and the moral order which underlines social relations.

The Government may propose to pass laws prohibiting social Political deviations . Is it right ?. It is actually right but, sometimes such prohibitions are acts of economic competition among elites of states, as such it becomes morally wrong.

The question of moral ethics in state politics has been a premise of political discussions between the realists and the idealists.

The realists believes that, secular politics does not concern itself with morality or the question of right, this is so because personal ambition and interest takes a central stage ahead of the wellbeing of the state. Idealists on the other side said, state politics and governance should be guided by the consciousness of right and wrong decision making.

What do you think, should we forget ethics in the game of politics to meet our ambitions?

With the hike in transaction charges, profit making by the Marchants is constant. Like the POS machine operators, the transaction charges forms their benefits.

And the total sum of transactions whether higher or lower forms their Lossing rate or gaining rate.

General investments experiences gain loss through charges and fall in prices.

If you have enough bitcoins buy for the sunny day, in other words to avoid losses , you must endure hunger like your money is in a fixed deposit, until there is green light in the hike in the prices of bitcoins.

There is no purchasing power or currency in the world that sustains stability for a long period. Even though Bitcoin remains a digital software coin, it is humans that drive the supply and demand process.

Don't forget that, there is one thing behind every transaction, which is to make profit. In every market, when the supply of coins are high among sellers, the Marchants manipulate the price to buy them at a slightly lower rate, so that, when they sell these coins they have purchased at a time that, the supply is not high, they can sell at a higher rate or exchange at a higher rate.

The Marchants is a clique of business people that monopolizes the demand and supply system to favour themselves.

Finally, it is the rise and fall of currencies that sustains their value in any economy, so if they sustain consistency or stability, Bitcoin will be devalued for a long time.

This is the principle, that is why even the world's strongest currency maintains stability and falls but, the world's strongest currencies don't maintain a consistent fall for a long period or even more than a week.

If you want bitcoin to continue been relevant in the exchange market , don't wish for consistent stability. Take other coins for instance, their value is not as good as Bitcoin.

Discipline on children is not cruelty, even the bible suggests the use of rod as a way of sanction.

Before a child envision his or herself, the parents must have create a long term objective and the direction given to the children are made toward that objective.

Observe one thing among families, the families that gives their children  free will normally gives the children the freedom to be engulfed with youthful exuberance that leads them away to old age.

Therefore , there is need to guide our children with strong Principles proposed by traditional education and systems.

It is not out of place to say that, man by nature and character is a politician as posited by the notion that, man is a political animal " Homo- Politiq".

By this argument , it means that, human is embodied with the charisma of politics naturally. This charisma is displayed in two ways;  Thinking and Taking decisions that suits his interest and man is also embodied with the charisma of making others to accept his opinion or decision as a general interest.

Such rights of decision making making based on interest is a natural right and constitutional right of every man.But, should there be the compromise between secular politics and the Christain religion?

Despite that fact that, humans have the absolute right of association, and decision making in a state even in a theocratic state, Christain doctrines and the principles of politics have a line that separates the entanglement.

Secular Politics according to many is a dirty game. A game of winner takes all including the common resources of the people, a game that is played with such much sentiments , hates and desperation such as blackmail and propaganda which sometimes leads to killing as a means of achievement.

Christainity on the other hand is a practice of moral principles that stands on Christ and his teaching. Christainity in some areas is seen as a religion for the newed movement that slightly separates from the old practices of the Jewish tradition, which was dominated by religious politics that drives the decisions of the Jewish state. The practices bans desperate, hatred, blackmail and propaganda, killing and stealing of public resources.

Donald Trump , the former U.S president while contesting as president , used propaganda and blackmail against his opponent, due to his behavior toward the blacks in America, they also gave their massive votes to the current president when Trump recontested Joe Biden.

Christ in his attempt to separate politics from religion criticised the church and separated himself from the politics of the Jewish state. It was on this ground that, his followers asked him an essential question about the entanglement between the Christains and the political leadership of the state, and he answered by making reference to the arts on the coin. The payment of taxes in that portion of the bible only accepted the civil responsibility of taxation.

There was never a day the church under Christ became a tool of political patronage. This is where the church has degenerated to in recent times. The modern churches turns the bible to suit the expectations of the political leadership and becomes subjects to the political ideologies and interests of persons in politics.

As against this regular practices of modern politics, the Christain belief encourages general interest and a display of an uncompromised belief system through a distinctive public and private conduct, guided by the principals of morality and social consciousness. This means that, Christains are encouraged to stand out in behavior as examples to their immediate environments.

I think the Christain religion should be only used as a ground for training citizens with upright behavior for the good of the state or country.

What is your take, should the church be part of the secular politics?

Thanks for your contribution

There are many ways of controlling the birth rate in society, it must not be abortion.

Abortion is dangerous act that has killed many young ladies , married and unmarried.

Abortion is simply the termination of unwanted pregnancy, firstly there are ways to stop a lady from getting pregnant as a way of controlling birth.

Due to the expensive nature of professional abortion procedures , many young people resort to personal  alternatives. Even the professional procedures most times destroys the womb or leads to death.

It is not the best way of controlling birth.

Poverty indeed changes people, it changes both the minds perception toward life and the physical appearance.

Poor people mostly depends daily on survival instincts , so they don't encourage themselves why?

Firstly, they believe that opportunities avail themselves to change lives, that makes them to wait on such opportunities.

Secondly, they beleive Government is solely for the provision of means of achievement and actualization of dreams through employment and empowerment schemes.

Most poor people have a careless state of mind, when you give them the chance of do something, they see it as an opportunity to get that one time enjoyment after many years or months.

So dear, the best way to get those your friends out of poverty is to pay for skill training for them. Because you cannot also keep them where they are, at least you are one of the opportunities they were expecting to salvage their situation.

The first phases of education is within the human social environment, the social environment consists of the family, and the entire social system such as peer groups, chieftaincy title holders , traditional laws and other social classing.

Education in the social system is mostly dominated by traditional rules and practices that dictates acceptable conducts.

But, modern life and practices have destroyed the important role of the native education. For instance, tradition all over the world dictates that , the supposed parties in a relationship must be known by both families and what is recommended is traditional marriage.

Yet social change brought by religious teachings and conceptualization of individual freedom have changed this important education , two adults could be in a relationship for years without the families knowing.

In the Greek native educational system, the female child is given the social education of home keeping , child rearing while , the male children are given military education from childhood by the governments of the justifications.

In every society, there are social systems that shapes the early education of an individual and when that stage is tampered and not properly defined, the child grow up to be an adult without proper social education or native education. And such individuals becomes less important to the social system, in terms of contributions and social relation.

Generally, the social or native education solely instills a culture of social consciousness, what is bad and good in the eyes of the society and it's consequences.

These things guides the social conduct of individuals even as they proceed to the official sector of education or the western style of education.

So what can we do?
We all owe our children a responsibility and obligation, this is not far from the biblical instruction of training a child. Others may have failed their children due to circumstances or family behaviours. With your decision society will be a better place for you and our children.

For me it is a primitive method of displaying strength in any International politics. If the International organizations don't take drastic action against Russia, it may degenerate to global ww 3 in it's primitive method.

In 1995, after the killing of Ken Saro Wiwa by the Nigerian Government after several warnings, the Nigerian state was cut off from the International politics and economy.

The Nigerian civil war became weak by the same sanction imposed on the Biafrans.

A complete sanction is needed to be imposed on Russia for a period of 10 years. Cut them off from all forms of both international and local transactions.  Hunger and starvation will drag their obedience.

Garmany and the U.S must spearhead this move.

Prostitution is a result of social and governance failure.

Family life among loose structured families  is one of the reasons while, governance failure in providing means of achievement to the younger generation is another.

The essence of global competition is majorly on the economic benefits of price and production monopoly.

The idea of paying the 1st class world power will encourage a voluntary conceding of defeat. The pressure of such statements is bullying and trying to forcefully consent to superiority.

What the idealists suggest in such cases is alignment for collaborative security, the partnership is the result of NATO and other international organizations.

Experts said, the ww 3 is already in motion through bi-polarity in ideology shaped around economy. The politics of this bi-polar war is seen to be between U.S and China after the collapse of the former Soviet union in 1995. Therefore , we shouldn't expect the model of ww 1 and ww 2 , it is a primitive model of economic competition.

Christmas: A season of love shown through giving and charity. The act of giving was a tradition started by the three wise astrologians.

The act did not only end there, it dominated the sermons and major practical principals of the Christain religion. The bible said, give and shall men give unto your Bossom.

This instruction from the bible encourages the act of giving that comes with the birth of Jesus and encourages the recievers to also give to the givers. This is the basis of team spirit and encouraging others to grow.

 God bless the givers this season.

Happy new year in advance.
