Tame your Belief, Religion and Systems:

Religion is the most powerful force on earth. Despite the claims of many to the contrary, everyone on earth is religious.

Religion is the adherence to a set of beliefs that regulatethe moral, social, and ritualistic behavior of the individual. 

This means religion includes the so-called atheist, secularist, communist, socialist, humanist or agnostic, for they all adhere to a belief system of some kind, even if it is the belief that there is no providential component in creation or life as we know it, or a belief in the power of the human as the supreme measure of truth and right. 

Virtually every major problem in history and in our contemporary world can be traced to some religious foundation.

 Religion has motivated the massacre of millions over the years in such horrific
events as the Crusades, the Inquisition, and wars related to the Protestant Reformation and the Catholic Counter reformation. 

Slavery, ethnic cleansing, apartheid, segregation, racial discrimination, and other oppressive practices all have been justified by some religious code or system.

Even the opening years of this centry commenced with definitive acts of
religious terrorism. The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 sent shock waves through the global nervous system of mankind and continues today to fuel the fires of conflict, hatred, fear, and murder
throughout the world. 

How ironic it is that religion, the very thing
that by its nature is supposed to provide the solution to mankind’s problems and provide hope and faith for life, has itself created more problems throughout history than it has solved.

The Seventh Generation of Computers

After the sixth generation of computers, which focuses on artificial intelligence (AI), quantum computing, and nanotechnology, the next generation will likely explore seventh-generation computers or beyond. These might include: 1. Quantum Computing at Scale Fully functional and accessible quantum computers capable of solving complex problems exponentially faster than current computers. 2 . Bio-Computing Computers that integrate biological components, such as DNA-based processors or neural tissue, mimicking human brain functionality. 3. Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) Computers that exhibit human-like cognitive abilities, understanding, learning, and reasoning in a general, adaptable way. 4. Neural Interfaces Direct brain-to-computer communication, allowing seamless interaction with technology using thoughts alone. 5. Molecular and Optical Computing Advanced technologies using light (photons) or molecules for faster, energy-efficient processing. 6. Self-Evolving Systems Machines t...

Affirmative Action in Nigerian Politics

 Affirmative action is a policy or set of measures designed to address historical and systemic inequalities by promoting the inclusion and representation of marginalized or disadvantaged groups—such as women, ethnic minorities, or people with disabilities—in areas like education, employment, and political participation. Its primary aim is to level the playing field by providing opportunities that help correct imbalances caused by past discrimination or structural barriers. In political contexts, affirmative action can involve mechanisms such as quotas, reserved seats, or targeted appointments to ensure fair representation and foster social equity in governance and decision-making processes.  Affirmative action in Nigerian politics is both a product of historical necessity and a reflection of the country’s complex ethnic, regional, and gender dynamics.
