Witches And Wizards by Nobody: 4:49pm On Apr 05, 2013
Mr. Wizard and Mrs Witch do not need introduction. Witches and Wizards are blamed when a man becomes broke or poor. They are blamed for woes and strings of ill-luck. But hardly has anyone I know around me seen these enemies of progress called Witches and Wizards.

The question that begs for answer remains, why are witches and wizards so popular amongst the illiterate poor and the very ignorant segments of our society ? Is there a relationship between witches, wizards, ignorance and illiteracy ?

I challenge anyone, who has seen a witch or a wizard to come out and tell Nairalanders how these spiritual beings look like in graphic terms.

The balls are in your courts, people.

As expected, I could not see responses, cos obviously, no one has ever seen a witch, its mere speculation.
Re: Witches And Wizards by Nobody: 10:48pm On Apr 05, 2013

the concept is popular among "illiterates" because of their being illiterate.
A lot of them have not had the opportunity to expand their horizons by way of exchanging ideas and learning to read/research.

So they stick to the explanations provided by those who come before them (ancestors) who may have been very primitive in their thinking, sense of justice and failure to accept accountability.

Say there was an ancient tribe in which the members felt a woman who had twins ought to be put the death because 1) the babies must have different fathers and 2) the twins are witches (thus should be killed as well).

Imagine if present day members of such tribe never had the opportunity to go to school and/or learn about conception or the processes that take place within the woman's womb to create twins? They too would believe that those kids are witches and that the mother is an adulterer.

That's my theory.

not speculation,
it's imagination. tongue

some folks know they don't exist but refuse to accept that they are responsible
or that sh-t happens in life....no they must blame something or someone for their problems.

I will hold your explanation as true, until someone comes to refute it and provide evidence that he has seen a witch or wizard

Are you guys kidding me? I dont blame you. If you ever had experienced spiritual warfare, would you be typing this post?

That it doesnt exist in your family doesnt mean its false... undecided

Could you describe spiritual warfare to the inexperienced among us and also tell us how the spiritual warfare translates into the physical?

Bill, I have seen an event that may qualify to fit into your question about withches and wizards. Still beyond my comprehension and liable to a sacarstic respone from you, I must say that yes; I have seen what must have been an incident that qualify as an example that witches do exist. I incidentally ran into a crowd where a snake was being killed. In front of my eyes, the snake 'metamorphosed'(for lack of a better word to describe was I saw) into a naked young lady. My senses were so repulsed by what I saw that I threw up repeatedly immediately after I beheld such anomally. The whole crowd dispersed with alarcrity. It was a pity I could not witness what happened to her eventually as I was draged home by my elder sister I was walking with.
I am not saying it(she) was a witch, just that I have experienced first hand a "witch-like" occurence.

The experience I was narrating happened about 22years ago, am sure even Bill Gates did not have a camera phone then not to talk of humble me.

Your story is an everyday possibility in the worlds of magic and occult art. Its Transmogrification. It is not wizardry that we hear of.
Remember the popular stories of a old witch flying with a broom stick ?
The story of wizard turning to an owl and hooting in the night ?
The story of a wizard sucking blood from sleeping innocents ?
I want such testimonies. A snake turning to a lady and Vice Versa is an art of common magic which has more to do with transmogrification

Billyonaire... Trust me i have experienced such.... A friend of mine whom i used to walk with then, told me he was a wizard, he told me he got initiated into withcraft at a very young age. i didn't believe him until he threw a note in the air and made it disappear... Abeg what do you call that one? I've even seen a guy whose joystick disappeared just because he picked N500 note... I wasnt there when it happened but i saw the guy's empty joystick spot.....PS: witches with broom sticks don't exist

Magic is different from Witchcraft I guess. Magic exists, wizards are myths.

You saw a guy who had his penissssss amputated as a result of accident or disease if truly you saw such a man and he claimed or lied that it was stolen because he stole 500 naira. . .Why don't we ever see video recordings of such of such fantastic events only hear say, and we know that hear say are completely unreliable. . .

You saw a woman turn into a snake, just as some people saw prophet Mohammed divide the moon into two halves or how a guy told me he was abducted by an alien, put into a space ship and taken to another planet(Am serious) He told me this with all seriousness and he is now a Scientologist because of what he said he experienced. . .The only thing I can tell you guys is to pls stop LYING. . .
Re: Witches And Wizards by kambo(m): 3:31am On Apr 14, 2013
if witches and wizards are real would you want to believe in them? the thoughts of them are unpleasant so you'd not like to even thnk about them. But does that affect their existence?
People say they saw this and that and others ar trying to tell them THEY DIDNT SEE IT?!
so you are the eyes of the people?! unh.
Others try to RE-EXPLAIN to the people what they saw - "no you really didnt see this you saw that"
Fact: IF YOU DONT WANT TO BELIEVE IN SOMETHING no fact will convince you - you'll work your way around any proof or fact provided.
How much more do you want to be convinced that witches and wizards exists?
if one walks up to you and openly admits -- you'll give a spin to it
if one performs their acts - you'll give anoda spin to it
if one writes his confessions in a book - you'll say its a lie
etc..
Besides.. its UNCOOL believing in things like Witches and Wizards . just not cool. maybe
you can say Jesus , but not Witches and wizards...
so its UNCOOL to talk about the devil also
and its even UNCOOL to preach ..
and its uncool to SH*T TOO..
so we dont do these UNCOOL things .. and we wish they didnt exists...

Bill.. I think we both know the Christ I'm talking about...Jesus Christ, the thing is you're trying so hard to prove there is no supernatural world, but you keep on confusing yourself... I've seen so many things. Jesus Loves you Bro. Even the so called science you rely on cannot be proven.. Evolution cannot be proven, Big bang theory is ridiculous...
You just gotta open your eyes to see the fact that there are things happening around us, supernatural things happen.
A crippled friend of mine, whom we went to a crusade together got healed immediately the pastor ;aid his hands on him, I din't believe in Miracles until i saw that Incident.. so bro. Start believing in Jesus Christ before it's too late, and stop doubting his existence.. cool

I know about supernatural realm cos I have been there, psychically anyway, and I think most of what you term wizardry is simply folklore and folktale compared to the advanced civilization out there.
