If they need Jesus [a white man god] then why r the whites buying the gods?

Why is what the 'whites' do your barometer for what is right and what is wrong.

Pleading gods is a sign of foolishness. That people are buying souvenirs does not mean that they have any true value.

If all the dead people were involved in the ex humongous of a corpse then that sums it all up. The formaldehyde used for embalming has probably been converted to substances including methane gas. And they only inhaled that gas which causes headache, irreversible blindness and death. Because they might never have used face mask during the ex humming process. The deaths are nothing fetish only scientific.

From what I saw in Akure in the one year that I was there,
As soon as I heard it was a Spiritual matter, I didn't dispute it one bit.


If in Akure the state capital, Calabashes filled with Eggs and other things are regularly seen at junctions,
Then in other interior LGAs, a lotta stuff is going down for sure.
Pls i think you need to read saturday punch newspaper too, where residents groan as foul-smelling sacrifices flood Lagos street, read page 26&27 perharps you can judge less

Ondo people seriously need Jesus.

They seriously need cleansing from Malokun spirit and other primitive traditions.


I'm proud to say that my people used to be here some years back but are no more there today cos we've been transformed out of darkness into his marvelous light.

Ondo is still in servitude to malokun and its likes. Oh God! Shine your light in ondo for the time to deliver her from the bondage of Malokun has come
. I beg your pardon sir, the town affected is Irele not Ondo state in general as we have different towns in Ondo so pls you may like to review your comment. Thanks

. Apology accepted but you know that people from other states are also guilty of this with just little differences, it takes only God's grace to deliver us irrespective of where we stay.

The purpose of science is te establish the truth.

To claim that scientists do not debunk myths is an outright lie.

Spirituality serves identical purpose. But before scientific methods, spiritual methods were used and they yielded excellent results

Scientists refer to myths - Greek myths on many occasion

But you won't see it because you choose to close your mind to it

Spirituality does not exist to establish truth - spirituality is accepting ignorance. The reason why life expectancy was so low for much of human history is because of superstitious, unfounded practices such as trepanning, bleeding and human sacrifice that have no scientific basis.

People used to do 'rain dances' in several cultures - we now know that such practices are entirely pointless.

If you believe that your spirituality will save you then I hope that you never visit doctors, take medication or undergo surgery. Afterall your ancient, unproven practices have worked so well in treating serious ailments such as cancer...

If we are being honest we know that your spiritual cures cannot even deal with malaria.

who buys something of no value for 20million naira?

Pls quit your dishonesty

And what do you know about spirituality? not only have you the littlest knowledge of what "Spiritual" is you also don't know the history and evolution it has undergone through ages and civilizations.. You just have a problem with it through your perception but there's more to spirituality than you think

A famous astronomer and physicist once said spirituality and science are not only compatible but the profound source of spirituality

Spirituality has preserved the lives of many before modern scientific methods and still today the ancient sciences can be applied in many occasions


And rain dances to achieve what? Have u ever spoken to one of such rain dancers to know why they dance in the rain? Or u just take delight in making assumptions aimed at attacking a people who are different from you

before ur very elevated medications existed spirituality held the solutions and the human race survived.. If they didn't work you would not have been conceived

Do you have proof of any of these spirit beings? Who created these spirits that you speak of? What purpose do they serve?

Are you saying that rain dances cause rain? I'm sure you are smarter than that. There are people who have died in droughts who pleaded with their various gods for rain, to no avail.

Who is this 'famous astronomer'?

Just because people excel in one field does that mean that their knowledge is complete or that everything that they are convinced of is accurate.
