The Problem With Ghanaians Is That We Don’t Like Change – Says Science Denying Dr Mensa Otabil

Pastor Mensa Otabil

There is a problem with hypocrisy deeply embedded within the fabric of most religions, which starts from the process of ‘cherry-picking’ – by which the religious go through their holy books and adhere to some laws and ignore others.

A great example is the Christian attitude to divorce and homo-s*xuality. Jesus ranted and raved about divorce and never mentioned the gays – but Christians, who claim we now live under the ‘grace’ of Jesus, hate gays with a passion yet get divorced themselves all the time with no compunction.

Godwin Nii-Armah Okine Writes – Some Two IDIOTS Tried A Pathetic MTN Mobile Money Scam On Me – What Are The Authorities Doing About Such Fraudsters?

MTN Money
I have heard a lot about these mobile scams that for some reason manage to snare a lot of people. I’ve always held the opinion that one must have shut off their brain or be real greedy for these kinds of scams to trap them, and after being on the other end of one it has only confirmed my opinion.

That scam is so transparent I’m wondering if anyone ever falls for it, but it seems people do or they would have stopped trying.
