Ifa Is Not A Cult Or Evil,it Is A Source Of Social And Spiritual Knowledge by bilms(m): 8:28am On Jan 07, 2013
IFA IS NOT A RELIGION,BUT A SOURCE OF SOCIAL AND SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE. IFA is not a religion,it is a knowledge. Or a source of knowledge. A knowledge or source of a particular kind of social and spiritual knowledge that is all encompassing and extends beyond the scope of philosophy. Understanding of It empowers a person to have some knowledge of the past,possible solution to the present challenges and the likely occurence of the future events. Upon seeing how important the Ifa knowledge is, most traditional religious practitioners seek for its knowledge and adopted it as a source of guidance. Some christian pastors and islamic clerics also do seek guidance on some complicated issue from Ifa. IFA is not a religion,it is not a cult,it is not evil,but rather, it is a source of social and spiritual knowledge and a cultural and traditional heritage of the yoruba race.

DONT LIE! angry angry angry angry angry

IFA CAME HAND IN HAND AS A RESULT OF TRADITIONAL RELIGION! I FIND IT FUNNY HOW NOW, NAIRALANDERS, SEEING THE GROWING POTENTIAL AND POPULARITY OF IFA, ARE TAKING CREDIT FOR THEMSELVES OR TRYING TO DISSOCIATE THE CREDIT ATTACHED WITH IFA-ORISHA RELIGION!

MOST, IF NOT ALL, IFA PRIESTS ARE BABALAWOS! REMEMBER THAT! angry

PAGANISM IS SPIRITUALITY! TRUE RELIGION IS SPIRITUALITY! NOT A SET OF RULES AND MORAL GUIDELINES AND STORIES LIKE QURAAN AND BIBLE.
