Lord Adekeye,
Ai beg. You had better be careful about how you award titles such as "His Holiness" to those who are not neither holy nor luminous, not to mention "His Holy Highness". Who be he and what could he have been shmoking ?
"Supreme Leader and Emperor of Sweden"?
Now you've got me really worried, next thing you know, SÄPO will be on my tail. They know that the Nigerian Mafioso known as Black Axe is slowly and surely establishing themselves in the Swedish realm and when someone from Lagos glorifies Cornelius Ignoramus as
"His Holy Highness,
Supreme Leader and Emperor of Sweden.
The Grand Wizard
The Amotekunius I",
to a trained ear that sounds like the honorific title of the Nigerian Mafia's director of operations in Sweden, "The Amotekunius I", of course, the title of the Supreme commander-in-chief of the Black Axe Defence League
"His Holy Highness "? "The Grand Wizard"?
The Oyibos in SÄPO have already been deceived by Black Axe's occult pedigree/ credentials and are relegating the cult/sect to some African hocus-pocus juju- witchcraft – superstition – so when you talk about "His Holy Highness, The Grand Wizard "– they must be thinking that I'm The Man! You remember Omowale ( Malcolm X // El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz) joking about the colonial Oyibo in Kenya asking some undercover Mau Mau operatives, if they were Mau Mau, the operatives answering innocently, " Mau-Mau? What's that boss?"
The closest that I have ever been to SÄPO is that I remember (on many occasions) chatting with some of their agents who used to accompany the Israeli Ambassador to the synagogue on Saturday mornings. If I remember accurately, one of them was later on promoted to be head of the agency….
Once upon a time, I thought that it was only the Saro people that loved awarding titles, until rivals emerged, such as Bokassa I of Central Africa, eclipsed by the champion of East Africa, "His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular"
I'm glad that you adore Greta. Later this year, she'll probably be awarded the Nobel Prize for Climate Change.
I'm very unhappy that you are, as you say "extremely anti Trump". What has he said or done to merit such an extreme reaction in you - all the way over there in Lagos? His temporary tough stance on immigration of Naija people?
As to hell, if we love the Almighty with all our hearts and we love our neighbours, then the fire will never touch us.
For those on the sceptical side, these guys are worth taking a look at: Four Horsemen of the Anti-Apocalypse: Dawkins, Dennett, Harris and Hitchens . Here's the latest posting on their Facebook page: Blind Faith In Religion Destroys Our Ability To Critically Think For Ourselves
Another speculative view from Sweden that should interest you, since you are "extremely anti Trump": Jan Hallenberg ( a professor of political science) on US foreign policy if the Democrats win ( However, he does not mention a thing about the Demos immigration policies – if they will affect Naija in any way…)
With regard to emigrating from hell to a putative heaven, these kinds of new items should guarantee that Christians in Nigeria now a persecuted species will most probably be granted asylum in the United States by Trump and by any future president as long as the horrific persecution persists:
Islamists in Nigeria are destroying Christian communities
Stop the Christian Genocide in Nigeria
President Buhari should do his best to stop the mess, so that those on the receiving end don't become "extremely anti- Buhari"
His Holy Highness,Supreme Leader and Emperor of Sweden.The Grand Wizard Cornelius HamelbergThe Amotekunius I.Thank you for the Frank Zappa bit about the lonely little girl. I am very pro Greta and extremely anti Trump. I am for all the little sinners that have been sent, that would be sent, and those currently being sent to Jahannam (or Jahannomo as the denizens of the Holy City of Ilorin call it) especially little kids like Emmet Till. However, I will not send Trump to hell if i have the power, i will give him hell on earth, like imprisoning him in Gashua Minimum Luxury Prisons.I am not scared of hell, hell no. But I loathe the idea of burning, after I have burnt out from living too much on this terra firma, in a conflagration fueled by the bones of my forebears (fossil fuel). I can stand nuclear fuel but that would be complicated as Einstein famously did not say "there are no scientists in heaven only a dictator who prestidigitates.In the meantime I want to shut up my mouth and laptop as I go to join lagos traffic hell, I Bolaji, gadfly, together with my keyboard.--On Thu, Feb 27, 2020 at 11:38 PM Cornelius Hamelberg <hamelbergcornelius4@gmail.com> wrote:Lord Abolaji A. Adekeye,
Your second question brings to mind not a victim of one of the notorious pedophile priests, those veritable wolves in sheep's clothing that go about ravishing the vulnerable little lambs that have been entrusted to their care, lambs that they are ordained to protect and to teach the holy word of God, no sir, your second question brings to mind Frank Zappa's Lonely Little Girl.
And I'm feeling protective about her. Here she is, Greta Thunberg, God's vulnerable little apple, and Trump's bullying attitude towards her and to the so-called climate change is that of the big bad baboon.
Your second question is the kind of witty observation that Trump would like to pose to little Greta. If Trump framed that question the way you have framed it, it would guarantee him a second term devoted to blaming climate change on the emissions from Jahannam
Strangely enough, the preachers preach about how exceedingly hot it is down there (it's always down, not up - and it looks like the evil-doers will descend from their graves into the bottomless pit of the roaring inferno located somewhere down down there in the crucible of fire at the epi-center of the bowels of the earth.
Re - the "celestial warming". The preachers don't say where the heat in the fiery furnace will be coming from. You innocently enquire whether the fire will be filled by Nuclear or fossil? The Quran al-Karim states authoritatively in Surah al Baqarah: 23 - 24 :
"And if ye are in doubt concerning that which We reveal unto Our slave (Muhammad), then produce a surah of the like thereof, and call your witness beside Allah if ye are truthful.
And if ye do it not - and ye can never do it - then guard yourselves against the Fire prepared for disbelievers, whose fuel is of men and stones."
So there! They may mock and scorn all they want but the disbelievers have been warned, the fires of hell will be fuelled by stones and the bones of men.
Some of the disbelievers and their fellow ignoramuses scoff that the Prophet of Islam got it all from Dante's Inferno. But how could that be, when the Inferno was published eight hundred and forty years after the Prophet of Islam, sallallahu alaihi wa salaam blessed the Hereafter!
The most memorable description of that location (hell) is to be found, not in the Holy Quran but in Chapter Three of James Joyce's " A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man"
You have been warned.
Babatunde (Baba has returned)

I suppose that "Nigeria" is also a metaphor for somewhere here on earth. Ditto Oduduwa, another imaginary location to which some souls qualify to transmigrate. It's a meritocracy.
Hell? They say that that's the place where members of Muhammad's Dead Poets Society ultimately suffer their everlasting punishment.
Still shmiling and shuffering in the vale of tears, there are those who say that money is the root of all evil. My friend Momodu Sidibeh says that it can also be the root of a lot of good. If, as some of the sceptics and poets believe, Hell (Jahannam) and Heaven ( Jannah) are mere "metaphors" for punishment and reward in the hereafter, then perhaps, they had better be very careful - the fire is said to be a very real fire, the heat, hotter than the surface of the sun, just as the gardens and the houris are also very real. There are many polemical discussions in the wholly Holy Quran pointing to the hapless journey's end for the disbelievers.
Exactly where and when does "the Hereafter" begin? Does it begin with the soul leaving the body - they say through the mouth, after the last breath, or does the "Hereafter" begin with the questions in the grave ?
