I need to ask my family if they fully think I'm going to hell๐Ÿ˜‚
Yesterday @kawirathambu spoke about the "5 Whys" of belief, where if you keep asking a believer "Why" Re: their belief, you get to the heaven/hell thing by the 5th why.
I have encountered believers who don't believe in the afterlife. I also didn't for the last 5 or so years of my believing. Their belief is that the religion helps them live a good life here.
Often though, these people also sit with many doubts about the religion and the writings. Cos it's hard to question the hell/heaven thing without questioning a lot more.

The number of people in her mentions saying it isn't an exchange.
But it is. That's why uncles get emotional about bride price๐Ÿ˜ข
Nothing else about a marriage gets uncles as involved as the bride price negotiation.
The only other time they get involved is if the marriage breaks down and the threat that they may need to refund said bride price becomes real ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Was chatting with a friend from Tz, and their relationship with the Chinese in Tz is curiously different. They've learnt Kiswahili, there are intermarriages, and everyone knows disrespecting the country/breaking the law = instant deportation.
This was right from the start. It be your own leadership.

Our leadership set off by taking bribes to allow businesses in, giving out work permits like sweets and treating Chinese business folk as superior to us. Now everyone is surprised.
Btw. It would be nice to hear from TOT about my friend's opinion of their interactions with the Chinese who have immigrated to Tz.

Today's #CourageStoriesLive was nice! Sharing my story triggered some interesting life memories.

Like how I wanted to do law for all of 5 minutes but changed my mind because we agreed with mom that it wouldn't glorify God ๐Ÿ˜‚
I am not sure accounting glorifies God either. Teaching folk how to pay Ceaser as little as possible ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
And if I had worked for KRA, I would be in the same league as that short dude in the bible.

Tax collectors and sex workers were in the same league 2,000 years ago.

Catholic Bishops have rejected a law that would compel them to report confessions of sex abuse of children heard in the confession box.
They say that it would interfere with religions freedoms. No shit!
It's almost as if abusing children sexually isn't really illegal if you are Catholic. Especially if you are a priest.

"KOT don't care about injustice at home".

Who does this narrative serve? I am asking this cos anyone who has been a tweep for long enough has seen the evolution of KOT.
Protests and demos are important and good, but so is information warfare. KOT and Kenyans on social media now shape what mainstream media reports on.
I've lost count of issues that only became mainstream because KOT persisted.

I've been meaning to write a post about Kenyan businesses and their return policies. As I wait for my intention, let me do a quick thread.
In the last 3 months, I've had interesting experiences buying things online and offline.
1. I needed a lock from a hardware shop at the hood. The caretaker had told me to make sure the lock "ni ya left". Who knew locks have left/right sides.
The hardware lady was super nice. She also couldn't tell but told me not to worry. If it ends up being the wrong one, I can return it.
It was the wrong one. So I returned it.
