My philosophy

“I am not perfect and neither are you, I would rather change plans while still at port; than to set sail and sink at sea”.
I am an ordinary guy with an average I.Q, I have made a lot of mistakes during the course of my life and God being so kind to me ; I have been able to cash in the experience. At a very early age in my life, I developed a keen desire for understanding the principles of “social engineering”[ a type of engineering in which you and I become the designated product, via print and electronic media CNN, BBC], and the social principles of life through social scientific means of research and interpretation.
It is very funny how the things with the most consequence receives the least attention., I grew up by the TV set, watched countless cartoons and children movies while growing up, I watched an enviable dosage of CNN, BBC ,Good Morning America, CBS news, late Night show by David letterman, Sally[then], oprah winfrey etc. I am not a guy with a clean slate, at least not as clean as many of you are, I am fully westernized.
Subsequently, I look at where we are all headed and I pause to ask myself, isn’t there some one who has been to where I intend to go now?, and fortunately enough for me, I met an armada of people whom have gone to where I intend to go and have cashed in the experience already[ Europe and America]; so I stop to ask them the following set of questions which I believe any wise traveler to a supposed disrupted nation will do; it’s like travelling to Jos [ capital of plateau state in Nigeria], which was war stricken then, and when you set out, you encountered a person just coming back from Jos, ideally you are supposed to ask that man as thus;
When did you go to Jos ?
How was the journey en route Jos?
How was your stay there?
Was all good when you left there?
How was your homecoming journey?
Where there any obstacles en route Jos?
How would you assess Jos ?
I am an eager bewildered traveler to the Jos now,, what advice would you give to me if it becomes absolutely necessary that I must go Jos ?
The above passage is a purported metaphor. Ideally, what it stands for is, since our own civilization has been cut half way through [ colonization of Africa]; and now we have embraced Sir Mango parks [British] civilization and decided to swallow its contents hook, line and sinker, the impression imbued in us about their own civilization [Euro-American] is that; it is more refined, and people treading its part are happier and more free. And in turn we are being conditioned to believe that our own civilization is rudimentary, crude, barbaric and unrefined, that we are less happy and poverty stricken, that we cannot even govern ourselves without U.N intervention.
Over the past forty years or so. Women have been liberated, they left the home for the job market which is a God given right [although terms and conditions apply], women today head universities, transcontinental business corporations, women head countries as presidents, they make up the best surgeons, economists etc. Their home and children? [that is if they have any], they live it to the supper nannies, the idle step parent, and to a wide variety of satellite TV programmers etc. the consequence? The highest number of rape, drug, suicide, pedophilias, incest’s, divorce phonographic, homosexuality, lesbianism, Gangsters, lack of remorse for the old etc and yet still I asked them the question that you and I need to answer, did women in America become happier? Is weight and ideal beauty the western woman’s obsession? [ unrealistic standards of beauty ironically set by men, where is the equality?] How many of them western women did manage to juggle a career and family successfully? I think you cannot eat your cake and still have it. Its either you focus on building a beautiful traditional family and do career later or do career fully and do Emily later. These are all subject to academic discourse now as we are meant to believe.
It is very funny how the things with the most consequence receive the least attention. It pains me when I visit websites and blogs and I hear American and Europeans regretting and complaining about how feminism has despoiled western civilization, has destroyed and will destroy more innocent lives, about how they turn off the TV set for a week annually just to control their lives awhile, how some fight against daycare centers and nannies and how they demoralize little kids[ because they are products of these social experiments themselves, how they feel full time breastfeeding should be done because with it the body secrets a natural contraceptive, that polio vaccine and all vaccines are a detrimental to our health[ your health], in essence those euro Americans that have woken up from a deep slumber now realize that they have been deceived by the global social engineers of feminism and the new world order. Herewith I placed a direct quote from an American woman in the hub post blog under the topic what is happening to women’s happiness?, she writes, and I quote “I feel like my mother's generation took away the ability for me to be a stay-at-home mom. For most of my peers, it is financially impossible to do this, when 30 years ago it was the norm. I know I have been taught that this kind of thinking should be wrong, but I don't. There had been a balance going on for generations, and it was only tipped recently. I would love to have lived my life 30+ years ago, instead of now”. These nations have been to the pinnacle of their own civilization, and yet they are the most morally bankrupt nations in the world.

Thus, the delicate balance that has been going on for generations dear comrades has been tipped by the social engineers. How does the African copy cat plan to recreate a balance?
I am no saint comrades. I am just a fellow with a thirst for moral redefinition and afro-cultural reclaimation. How and when will we, Africans, set our stakes based on African standards? When will we stop hero worshipping Europe and America? It is said that “it is by copying what everybody does that the monkey ended up slitting its own throat”. Let us pause to ponder over our roots as Africans and as Muslims, how unique a civilization we had. I do not intend to wait until I become a saint before I help pass down information with such grave consequences to my fellow Africans. Every one of us is like a moon having a dark side which they never reveal. All I preach is but moral philosophy.
