Seun Anikulapo-kuti Rejects The Existence Of God And Jesus Christ by jamp: 8:44am On Nov 20, 2012
Oluseun Anikulapo-Kuti is the youngest son of the legendary Afrobeat pioneer, Fela Anikulapo-Kuit. Seun leads his father’s band, the ‘Egypt 80’ to date. In this interview with Bayo Adeoye, he speaks on his music and lifestyle, amongst other issues.
You were 14 when Fela died, what do you miss most about him?

Well, Fela was my father. You know, it’s a long time now since he died. The most important thing to me now is his presence. I miss him being around. I think of what would happen if I were able to have a discussion with him today. Knowing everything I know now, those are the kind of things you miss. I just miss him being around.

Can you describe what God means to you?

I do not believe in God. I am not a believer of anything supernatural. I don’t believe in God, Jesus Christ, Mohammed, Ifa, Ogun, or whatever anybody uses as a reason to explain simple actions of nature. God, to me, is not in existence.

God is dying a slow painful death. Everyday, more and more people convert to atheism.

The last time you and I posted on the same thread, I called you a hypocrite for accusing others of using strawman arguments and you denied it.

I've been away from Nairaland for a few weeks since then. But. lo and behold, the very first frosbel post I read on my return features the granddaddy of all strawmen: the "how could it all have happened by chance argument".

Just to be clear, no scientist has ever claimed that evolution happens "just by chance". Natural selection is pretty much the opposite of chance. The only chance involved in evolution is the usual randomness inherent in the natural world, which anyone who has played ludo before should be familiar with.

Go and find a biology book to read. You might learn something.

They've been saying this before you were born, even before your ancestors were born. Quit saying rubbish. Who again is the one that rejects the existence of God and jesus Christ but a fool.

No man. Before I was born, Europe was ruled by the pope like the ayotallah does iran. Today, people are buying up churches in europe and converting them to residential buildings. Religion and god are dying. No amount of shouting "fool" will change it.

Smart choice- not believing in fairy tale beings.


It goes with a simple rule; if its existence cant be proven over 2,000 years while people claim it, it is a hoax

Seun Kuti is a protest singer. So him singing his protest songs against our corrupt Government & also travelling to london & around the world, seeing how others live better lives minus religion has opened his eyes to reality.

it's not news that his father and his family do not believe in God. it'd be more a surprise if he stated otherwise knowing his history and drugs.

seun needs help. whether he chooses to believe or disbelieve, that doesnt stop God from being God.
Re: Seun Anikulapo-kuti Rejects The Existence Of God And Jesus Christ by EvilBrain1(m): 8:44am On Nov 21, 2012
It's good that Seun is able to say this publicly. His family has never followed the crowd in terms of religion (including his second cousin once removed, Wole Soyinka) so I'm not that surprised.

In any case, we need more Nigerian atheists coming out like this. We need to start challenging the fanatics in the public sphere before they succeed in christianizing/islamizing the country.

frosbel my friend,how can sensible people believe a sky-daddy who is presumably all-knowing created a world that is so furcked-up because his own creation furcked it up?how can any sensible person believe a sky daddy sent his sons to die for the sins of his own creation?

Beko was an atheist as well. Olikoye never came out openly, but he was never particularly religious and if you look at his life and the his dealings with his brothers, friends and colleagues; all the signs were there. And I think I already mentioned Wole Soyinka.

Are any of these people serious-minded enough for you?
