Can you imagine? "I don’t believe in the Islamic or Christian God and, for the adherents of these religions, if that makes me an atheist, so I say, I am an atheist" 2 Likes |

Did Orisa ask you so keep quiet when wrong and evil is been done. Did Orisa ask you to be hypocrite. Did Orisa ask you to insult your leaders because you want to be relevant. call another mans wife a Shippopotemous! Uselessness of out time

xproducer:/ You are very kind to specify that it was Jesus that said so. Are you expecting him to de-market himself? He had to promote his brand as expected. It is up to you to take it as the absolute truth. Heineken claims that is the best beer brand but Guinness will beg to differ. That's how I view religion which is more or less modified cultism. Before opening the Bible, one knows that the content is there to promote Christ and God of Israel. The same can be said of Islam, Scientology, Hindu, Judaism, Rastafari, Buddhism, etc each one trying very hard to claim supremacy. / 8 Likes |

Afonja44: What cult is bigger and more monstrous than Christianity and Islam? Those two religions are dripping with the blood of literally billions of innocent people. The Crusades, the Inquisitions, the Jihads, the Colonial Christian invasions and massacres of Africans to steal their land and resources… Their atrocities are endless. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

PROF MUST GO FURTHER AND DEMAND THAT WE BUILD A NATIONAL TEMPLE FOR TRADITIONAL RELIGION IN ABUJA. How can we be in AFRICA, and have a National Cathedral and National Mosque, but no National Temple for our own traditional religion? IT’S AN UTTER DISGRACE AND EMBARRASSMENT. Talk about spitting in the face of your history, heritage, and ancestors. And you wonder why you have problems as a country? DO YOU KNOW WHY GHANA IS ALWAYS SO PEACEFUL AND ORGANISED? They have not shunned and abandoned their traditional religion. In Accra and other towns and villages, they have well-built and maintained shrines and even small temples where traditional religion is observed PROUDLY AND FREELY by the people. That is why their ANCESTORS AND DEITIES have protected them. In Nigeria you are still waiting on foreign imported ‘saviours’ like “JESUS” and “MUHAMMAD”. Anything but BLACK. Useless, brainwashed country under mental slavery. 3 Likes |

xproducer: How do you know it's the word of almighty? Africans have got no business with christianity and Islam. All the fables in those books has got no focus or reference to Africa. Please show me where Port-Hacourt, Ibadan, Enugu or Kano was mentioned in your Bible or Koran. Africans embracing these foreign religions are mere meddlesome interlopers. No wonder the continent keeps drifting backwards as they keep praying to the gods who do not understand their languages. 3 Likes |

Don't worry Sir When you close your eyes to this world, and find yourself in the other world, then I hope it won't be too late before you realise Satan and his Fallen angels are the ones disguising as Orisa and other little gods . My prayer is that you find salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ before you leave this world, just as I am praying Jesus Qualifies me too. 3 Likes |

Afonja44: You are probably driving and using Japanese or Korean products, and Japan is a country that is majority Shinto...ie idol worship. There are shrines to their gods everywhere, and people worship their gods , and keep shrines to their ancestors in their house. Also, South Korea, at least 30% of the populaiton is christian, most follow ancient Korean paganism. Even in the DPRK, a tiny minority follow pagan religion Soyinka has a lot in common with those people...so calm down (Plus, your ancestors used to worship the gods, so why are you also mocking them?) 5 Likes |

ICTspecialist: ICT specialist, why should you use products from Korea and Japan and even China, where some people worship their ancestors. You better not buy any Japanese car o. Only 1% of the populaiton follows christianity. Most of them are Shinto followers...so your toyota or honda was made under the direction of someone who has a shrine to his late ancestors in his house and prays at a local shrine where his ancestors are entomed. Same thing with Koreans. Koreans follow something called Chendoism. Idol worship, with some modernization. I guess you better stop using samsung, hyundai and all korean products, since na ancestor worship dem dey do Also, avoid indian products...ancestors and gods they worship... 11 Likes 1 Share |
