Annunaki: lol, six million number is a myth that has been debunked by even Christian missionary organizations in Africa and worldwide. Throughout history, many more Christians have been converted to Islam than vice versa. Egypt, Palestine, Anatolia, Turkey, Iraq, Algeria, Morocco, Bosnia, Kosovo, East Thrace, and Syria were Christian areas with MILLIONS of followers. Today, all of these countries are Muslim (Mashallah!) and Christianity barely exist here That's hundred of millions of people that would have been Christian but now are Muslims and on right path! Mashallah. Annunaki, you can keep crying about myths while real world keeps marching on. And we just keep laughing at misguided Christians like yourself. Poor soul. 2 Likes |

fedex01:Islam converts through terrorism, just like the first raid against Meccans. |
Re: The Largest Religion In Nigeria? Islam Or Christianity? Detailed Analysis by fedex01: 2:11am On Jan 10, 2016 |
OFFICIAL336: And christianity converts through mass genocide, enslavement, and colonialism--just like in Africa and Americas. See, how easy it is? Tell me one African (other than Ethopia) or American nation that became christian on its own without European colonization first? Indonesia, the largest Muslim country, became Muslim without even one Muslim soldier setting foot in it. Islam has been way more peaceful than Christianity over the years. That's a fact.

fedex01: Dunce, you are bragging about what you should be ashamed about. All those countries you listed, the conversions were forced through jihad and is indeed very shameful. On the contrary, christianity spread through evangelisation and missionary workers and people freely converted based on the conviction of the gospel. In nigeria here the exploits of uthman danfodio is still very fresh and well documented, I don't need to remind you that your cowardly ancestors converted to islam to save their necks. What a shame. |
Re: The Largest Religion In Nigeria? Islam Or Christianity? Detailed Analysis by fedex01: 3:22pm On Jan 10, 2016 |
Annunaki: LOL, wrong. In most of these countries, people weren't forced to convert. They converted on their own because they were living under oppressive christian colonization of Rome--and Muslims gave them freedom to choose. However, Christianity always converts through mass genocide, enslavement, and colonialism--just like in Africa and Americas. Tell me one African (other than Ethopia) or American nation that became christian on its own without European colonization first? Nigeria became Christian due to colonization and enslavement. Don't kid yourself. If there were no European colonialism, Nigerians wouldn't be following the illogical religion of Christianity believing in the confusing and false doctrine of trinity. Indonesia, the largest Muslim country, became Muslim without even one Muslim soldier setting foot in it. Islam has been way more peaceful than Christianity over the years. That's a fact. Blind slaves of European white masters like you can't argue with facts. |

Stick to the topic, which is Nigerian religious landscape. And uptil now, all the neutral and credible evidence and data suggests that Islam in the largest religion of Nigeria and it is growing much faster than Christianity due to fertility differences between the North and the South. Lets focus on that everyone |
Re: The Largest Religion In Nigeria? Islam Or Christianity? Detailed Analysis by Annunaki(m): 6:15am On Jan 12, 2016 |
fedex01: No amount of al taquiya can change the fact that to the glory of God islam is on the decline in Nigeria and thousands of former muslims are converting to christianity on a daily basis especially in the north that was thought to be purely muslim. Communities in the north are dumping islam enmasse and embracing christ yet you are here ranting dust and bragging about your rapidly declining islamic population in Nigeria. The national census is coming up again this year, let's see if the cowardly muslims will allow religion be included in the census enumeration data. |
Re: The Largest Religion In Nigeria? Islam Or Christianity? Detailed Analysis by Annunaki(m): 6:36am On Jan 12, 2016 |
Christians in Nigeria comprise between 40%[1] and 49.3% of the population. Christians are dominant in the southern and central region in Nigeria. According to the Pew Research Center, Nigeria has the largest Christian population of any country in Africa, with more than 85 million persons in Nigeria belonging to the church with various denominations.[4] The numbers of Christians in Nigeria has grown from 21.4% in 1953 to 49.3% in 2010. Since the introduction of Sharia penal law in some of the Northern states, violence towards non-Muslims has increased in the North. In spite of this, a 2015 study estimates some 600,000 believers in Christ are from a Muslim background living in the country. Source: wikipedia |

Infact I gather there is a church in ajah area of Lagos whose members are mostly ex muslim northerners. A tsunami is happening right under the noses of these muslims and clowns like the OP are still deluding themselves that islam is growing through population owing to the randy nature of muslims |
Re: The Largest Religion In Nigeria? Islam Or Christianity? Detailed Analysis by fedex01: 1:47am On Jan 13, 2016 |
SirHouloo: That's exactly my point. Christianity spread in Africa only because of colonization, enslavement, humiliation, and destruction of Africans by Europeans. European whites forced Christianity on Africans and took their lands. And you guys are so idiots that you are following a fake religion that was imposed in you by your oppressors. Lol! |
Re: The Largest Religion In Nigeria? Islam Or Christianity? Detailed Analysis by fedex01: 1:52am On Jan 13, 2016 |
Annunaki: Nobody is deluding. I am just presenting facts and figures issued by various credible organizations such as PEW, DHS survey, and so on. It is YOU guys who are just ranting from your own mouth about so-called conversions--while the data doesn't back it anywhere. I have personally witnessed 4, 5 conversions to Islam (from Christianity) in our Mosque--but I don't bring em up, you know why? Because I believe in statisitical data and credible sources--not barking like idiot "Oh I saw this. Muslims dying. Oh I saw that" ...loool, where's your data buddy? Even your OWN missionary Christian study that YOU shared states that there are 600,000 Christians from Muslim background are living in Nigeria today---that's after decades of so-called evangelization by colonialist white missionary organizations. LOL, what a fail. Even if we accept these figures which Christian missionary organizations are giving (hence unreliable numbers)--even then it is absolutely insignificant in terms of demographic change. In a country of 170 million+, 600,000 converts means 0.3%. loooooll..Talk about "miracle", "tsunami", and what not. See, I was right all through Nigeria is on path to become a clear Muslim majority nation, Inshallah! 2 Likes 1 Share |

fedex01:So islam wasn't force on you guys? Why can't you be realistic for once? So na oyinbo dey stay your land now? You were born with Islam? What Uthman Dan Fodio did has escaped your mind? Don't go too far, Ilorin is there. The missionary did good than bad, you can see the schools and facilities in the south, their level of education, they were given by the missionaries. Your not colonised area was given Almajiris and na by force o, a lot of your ancestors were killed for it. 1 Like |
Re: The Largest Religion In Nigeria? Islam Or Christianity? Detailed Analysis by fedex01: 6:27am On Jan 13, 2016 |
SirHouloo: Islam is more traditional to Nigeria than Christianity. Lets accept facts. There was no mass scale colonization and destruction to force Islam by outsiders on us. While Christianity was spread by white colonialists on what they saw as subhuman Africans. Islam spread in Africa organically---and no Arab armies invaded Nigeria, plundered its peoples, and enforced Islam on them. While christianity was enforced in exact same fashion to you poor peoples. You should be respectful and turn back to the religion of your ancestral land--which is Islam not Christianity. |
Re: The Largest Religion In Nigeria? Islam Or Christianity? Detailed Analysis by Annunaki(m): 6:37am On Jan 13, 2016 |
fedex01: What kind of vicious lie is this Islam was spread across northern Nigeria through jihad and forced conversions by uthman danfodio who will be labelled a terrorist in modern times. Whilst the colonialist never imposed christianity on anyone. Christianity was spread by evangelising through the missionaries who went around doing good. I challenge you to quote one single credible source that says anybody was ever forced to convert to christianity by the colonialists. |
Re: The Largest Religion In Nigeria? Islam Or Christianity? Detailed Analysis by fedex01: 6:45am On Jan 13, 2016 |
Annunaki: HAHAAHAHAHA!!!! Is that what they teach you at lying missionary schools of South? LOL! Hell, there are movies made by CHRISTIAN AMERICANS about how Europeans exploited Africans and forced/tricked them into Christianity while looting their resources. Good works? You do realize that these European missionaries didn't give a sh!t about Gods words but were serving to the crown. As Europeans looted and raped Africans and their resources--and made them poor--the missionaries were specifically sent by the crown to pacify the African masses with dose of religion, so that Africans can be tricked into caring about stupid fairy tales of bible while their continent was being plundered. You do realize that West itself has denounced christianity and has openly thrown it out of their society because even they realize its fake--while at the same time you are worshipping a white-man (jesus) given to you by same Europeans who don't care about christianity themselves.

fedex01: Obviously as a muslim lying has been ingrained into your dna otherwise you will know that the missionaries built hundreds of schools and hospitals for the benefit of communities they preached and that is the main reason why the southern part of Nigeria is far more advanced than the north that was over ran and pillaged by jihadist who had nothing good to offer them except their satanic religion which is still keeping the north back ward today. 1 Like |
