Is Stupidity a Name?

Every element that constitutes what makes like a reality must be in one form or shape, colour and size. Whether in a countable physical form or intractable spiritual appearance, the Creator knows what everything stands for. No one knows exactly what He knows and there will never be anyone who shall justify his/her instinct before the Maker. The reason is simple; the peace-establishing mechanics of human societies are in His reaches. God is the only one who establishes them and that is why the “earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof; the world and they that dwell therein.” (Psalms 24, verse 1) 

God is the only Decision Maker who sees the entirety from the beginning to the end without brainstorming. Such a quality makes Him the Creator. Whether He is called Olódùmarè or Mvelinqangi or Jehovah or Ngai or Allah or Adonai, no one can associate stupidity with His thoughts, humanly presumed inaction or creations. Everything He does is perfect. However, His permission for the existences and establishment of humans’ free will and other celestial forces open the door to oppression and dominion among humans. If what is written in The Bible is not misunderstood, the word of Elohim reads “…subdue and dominate the earth….” This quotation is the command; humans are not expected to subdue, oppress, capitalise (capitalism), dominate and enslave their fellows with anything – policy of governance, business terms and condition etc. However, the deliberate application of the opposite makes stupidity the name of most humans, if not all. Where the revelations of the Creator are not called for or deliberately undermined, human instinct or free will is the trigger of potential suppressive actions.

In most cases, those who claim to be religious act as the mundane agents of their Creator. That is why the limitation of human knowledge is the first step towards his/her fall. Related to this point is a practice that involves the surrendering of one’s wheel of life to family and friends to steer/manoeuver with the use human logic and permutations. Allowing other fellows – parents, siblings, relatives, friends, neighbours etc. to design the blueprints one’s careers, marriages, businesses, free giving, investments, etc. will imprison the life of the affected individuals forever. Consequently, the lives of such fellows would get turned (clockwise or anti-clockwise) and twisted in any direction because their wills or senses of obedience to God are either in extinction or bought with material things.

Sometimes, the decision of humans could be described as ‘ingenious,’ or ‘brilliant,’ or ‘fantastic,’ or ‘outstanding.’ Irrespective of the description, stupidity will it be called, if it is a derivation of an act that contradicts the word or revelation of the Creator. Even if a church or a mosque or a synagogue certifies it, such shall be associated with stupidity with time. Many actions in our world today represent stupidity and more in days or years to come will fall into this category.

What about yours today and tomorrow?

Psalm 23 of Nigerian Politics

To start your reading attempt of this article, you may have to switch your mind to the popular Psalm 23 in The Holy Bible because the verses below are readable in the same rhythm. Democracy is my shepherd, I shall always loot. It makes me richer than the voters; it places me above the law. It restores my position. It gives me right to oppress for oligarchy’s sake. Even though I campaign in the valleys and ghettos of hardship, I fear no opposition; for all results of elections shall comfort me. It prepares a vault of dollars on my table in the presence of the people’s cry; it anoints my foreign accounts with euro, pounds, dollars, and yen; my milk overflows. Surely, self-interest and wealth shall follow me all the days of my terms. And I shall dwell in the house of failure-politics, forever. Amen! This is the imperfect inspiration that rings without end in the minds of all failure-politicians in Nigeria. Every day, every minute, everywhere and anyhow, they recite...

The Beginning and an End

Image
Seasonality is a feature that characterises the existences of all things. The reason for this is better known to the master of all creations, Yahweh. Humans, plants and animals all exist for limited times; occupy some positions for certain reasons; authorise their views to accomplish one goal or the other; and execute certain ideas when they are alive and in the positions to do such. The end of everything is a signifier that nothing lasts forever; only God reigns for eternity. The White House When Donald Trump accepted and celebrated the announcement of his victory to be the 45th president of the United States of America in November 2016, I realized that, as a man, he lacks integrity and self-principle. Why? A man of principle and moral stand does not eat whatever he condemns. Before the election, he condemned, dented, mocked, defamed, undermined and stigmatized the constitutional electoral college system, which had been in practice for decades before he was born. In his view, popular...

A Mockable Fire Service

Image
If Nigerians who are knowledgeable about public services in the UK or/and the US are asked to make comments on the efficiency of the fire departments in the two aforementioned countries, what their responses might be could be guessed. Even if the respondents have never been to the West, a 2013 thriller titled The Call that features Abigail Breslin and Halle Berry is enough to convince anyone that public services in the US or Canada are not for jokers or façade public administrators whose priorities are self-interests and social media posts of imaginary achievements. Here is an important question that requires our attention: Is it logically possible for two fire service trucks to arrive at a scene of a fire outbreak without water two hours after emergency numbers were called? Rescuers at the scene For anyone who lives in France or the United Kingdom or even Egypt, such could be a fiction. But for residents of Lewis Street in Abule Taylor of Alimoso, Lagos, Nigeria, is ...
