Religion

We live in a very big country, Nigeria. Our country occupies a large land space and there are millions of people in it. The people have different views, beliefs and ways of life. As a result, their religious beliefs are also different. Some people in the country believe in one God, his son Jesus Christ and in the Holy Ghost,these people are called the Christians. They read the Holy Bible and worship God in the church.
    Some other people believe in one God called Allah, and in His prophet called Mohammed. They read the Holy Quran and worship Allah in the mosque. They are called Muslims.
     There is yet a third group in the country. Members of this group believe in gods and goddesses and in an Almighty God. They believe in the African traditional religion. Since all of us in the three groups have to live together in the same country, we should not condemn the religion of other people, rather we should respect each other's religious beliefs. There are many other reasons why we should tolerate other people's religious beliefs.
   Most of us believe in one God. We depend on one another as human beings for our needs and services at home, in the school and in the community. All religious preach obedience to God's law, the laws of land, the rules and regulations of the community.

Pronoun are the first examples of words that refer to people and objects. Sometimes, it is easy to follow the reference at other times, it is more difficult. Look at the opening sentence of the passage you've just read that begins this way  "She was waiting for us:small, dowdy, dirty..."  Who was waiting? Who was the person waiting for? (Perhaps you would also like to know why she was waiting.)Answers to these questions will surely help you to understand and thus follow the reference. The first thing to do is to ask questions like the ones we have just asked and to read t...

Housing Problems

Housing is certainly one of the basic necessities of man. However when rural dwellers migrated to the urban areas in very large numbers, housing has become a problem. This further exacerbate by the upsurge in the number of people coming to stay in a country, increasing the country's population in a manner that surpasses the rate at which houses are built, and the relative in cash flow which makes people desires better living conditions.    The importance of housing is so universally acknowledge that the United Nations declared 1986 international year of shelter. But so far, all efforts made, including building of housing estates by the government, have not solved the problem of inadequate housing. How could this be solved? The government should make provision of amenities to be getting in cheap rates, various building materials such as cement, roofing sheets, asbestos, as well as finishing materials such as paints and tiles. The government should build and sell the house at a...

Why women have sex

Why do women have sex? And why do women have sex without commitment? It might be easy to assume that a woman’s sexuality is like a man’s, but if that were true, why would so many men still believe that there are good girls for marrying and fun girls for, well, fun? (That double standard is a myth, by the way.) Before you label her one thing or the other, consider her motives for hooking up with you. We all love a good throw down every now and again because, let’s be real, it’s a great time. But guys, here’s a little secret: Sex is more than just an evening (or afternoon or morning) of fun.
