I got this from a friend's facebook post and I believe it's worth sharing:


If prayer really works like my religious friends and foes insist, then the Black-race would have been on top of the modern world for centuries.

I can guarantee you that there is no other race on the face of the earth that prays more earnestly and feverously than the Black race. No other race of people has more bruises on their knees from kneeling instead to standing up, than the black race; no other race of people on earth during their life time has kept their eyes glued shut staring into darkness longer than the black race; no other race of people on earth have kept their hands clasped doing nothing to help themselves than the Black-race, & no other race of people on earth has spend more time with their lips quivering begging an invisible man in the sky to send some magical help to solve their problems than the black-man .

As a matter of fact there is no other race of people in the history of mankind who has so happily & faithfully prays to so many different gods that belong to their many former slave masters, than the blackman. They even pray and believe in the existence of the gods of their former slave master’s/oppressors more than their former slave master/oppressors believe in these gods.

So I say again, if prayer really works then the Black-race would have been on top of the modern world for centuries. The whole of Africa would today be the greatest super-power the world has ever seen. Not one black baby would be starving to death as you sit in you comfortable home reading this post, not one inch of Africa’s soil would be occupied by the imperialist invaders, not one of those beautiful African mothers would die giving birth to a beautiful African child. All incurable diseases would need a visa to enter Africa, the world would be looking to Africa for financial and food aid; I can go on forever but you get the idea.

Africans how many more centuries will it take before you come to grips with yourself and realize that what you have been doing to solve your problems for the last 2000 years is not working? Only a fool keeps practicing a known failed routine and expects a successful result!

Africa it is time to get up off your knees and stand up to your problems yourself like humans should
Africa it is time to open your eyes and face the reality of your problems yourself like humans should
Africa it is time to unclasped your hands and solved your problems yourself like humans should
Africa it is time to stop talking to invisible men in the sky and start speaking to visible humans here on earth about ways to solve your problems yourself like humans should.

Africans your life and the future of your children depend on you and your hard work as a human being, & not some invisible man in the sky or anywhere else. So get up off your knees and live like the mighty race that you are or stay on your knees and die like the animal that the other races want you to be

Great write up.


Unfortunately, Jesoul and co will still believe in the worship of the invisible sky man to solve Nigerias problems

I recently went back to an old thread where we all had a discussion about Nigerias problems and the religious people couldnt see that they were part of the problem.....


Sometimes, I want to give up

And who tells you an irreligious man that you aren't part of naija's problem??.......

You think aren't a problem?.....

Yeah we need to start taking responsibility for our problems and woes not ascribing them to some invinciblr being we need to rise above our current primitive level of reasoning to achieve greatness.

@OP, please may I put this on my facebook wall?

Only a fool believes that prayers is part of a solution to anything. . .Prayers has never and will never work. . .Anything that man needs to do MUST be done by man himself. . .No god or gods has ever don andything for any body and no god/gods will ever do anything for any body. . .

DAYUM. SMELLS LIKE HEATHEN JUICE IN THIS THREAD *SPRINKLES HOLY WATER*

Only silly people believe that prayers ever solve anything. . .Any thing that humans need to do must be done by humans themselves. . . .No god/gods has every helped anybody any where, and no god/gods will ever help any body any where. . Humans are the ones that will keep helping each other or harming each other. . .

To qualify me as a problem, you'd have to add another title to "irreligious"

But for religious people, religion is a problem by default

On the flip side, no god/gods has ever been able to do anything themselves without the help of humans...humans help god to write his holy books, humans help god to spread his word, humans help god with their hard earned money to spread his word, humans help god to prove n argue for his existence, humans help god to translate, interpret n misinterpret his word, humans help god to explain himself; even when Christian god came to us in human form, he had to wait years after his death for humans to help him write his story...and when other humans piss god off, humans help god to fight his battles, from senseless massacres in the Old Testament, to the crusades, jihads, al- Qaeda, boko haram, to the argumentative pages of Nairaland religion section ( not to forget the tyrannical Islam for Muslim mods, who help their god in shutting down dissenters with lenghty bans)

Come to think of it, god actually needs to pray to humans more than humans need to pray to his inactive non-existent azz

Humans created all the gods they worship, so humans are god. . .

If man created the gods, then who created man?

If man created the gods, then who created man?

What sort of question is that? What gave you the assumption that man was created in the first place?

I don't know who created man but I know for sure that all gods are man made. . .

Dude, relax. Just a simple question that requires simple answer, you don't need to get agitated over this.

mazaje:

You claim you don't know who created man and yet you rejected the answers from those who claim they know.

I will rather stick with the word of God that has the answers rather than put my faith on those human scientists "who don't know"

The Human scientists who "don't know" brought you cure for bacteria, vaccinations for viruses, heart surgery, heart transplant, combustion engine, jet engine, florescent and incandescent bulbs, turbines, power generators, microchips, computers, internet, long distance communication in seconds, mobile telephones, transportation by air, to mention only a tiny fraction. Yet you have balls to say they don't know.

Please tell me what "those who claim to know" have done for humanity? if not put village against village, brother against brother and race against race in mortal kombat just because their holy book (written by "those that know" ) says so?


You sir are dishonest to yourself.. and if you are not then you must have been brain washed.

Yes, we do not know the complete history of life on earth but don't make up stories and force us to believe.

That they say they know doesn't mean they truly know.Anybody can make any claim no matter how spurious.From your above post I could assume you believe anybody who makes whatever claim rather than one who says he doesn't know,right? Then you must be the most hyper-ingenuous fellow on the globe.

mazaje:

I am sure if I tell you, you will still claim that "you don't know". But I will still go ahead anyway. God revealed himself to mankind in the person of Jesus Christ. The Bible is the message to man from God. You can either accept it or reject it and claim that "you don't know"

Nope, the Koran is the message and true revelation of allah the creator of the universe to man kind. . .Allah reveaed the koran to mankind through prohet Mohammed. It either you accept it or reject it. . .

The verders are the works of the gods that created the universe, they are the revelatons of the gods and goddeses that created the universe and revealed to humanity, it either you accept them or reject them. . .

I still maintain that until scientists figure out answers to to life's most important questions(beyond the technological advances) I will join the majority of humanity who put their faith in higher supernatural Power.

2 billion Christians worldwide cannot be all wrong as compared to few atheists who claim they are smarter than them and yet they still don't know the answers to life's most important questions

So you somehow agree that there is a Higher Power, even if humans have incomplete and different understanding of him?
