And when you get to that heaven you will be shouting hallelujah from morning to night. That's worst than hell o

Yesterday, Friday, millions of Muslims also went to mosque to pray to Allah.

Tomorrow, Sunday, will be another day when people from all over the country will go to different churches to "serve God". The Christian god, Jehovah/Yaweh depending on what denomination you belong, precisely. Some Christians even believe that Sunday is not the right day of worship but that is a discussion for another day.

And while in church, different pastors are going to scold members for not coming to church more often or for paying their tithes or for not being close to God and will threaten their congregation with eternal damnation, first class accommodation in hell, poverty, failure, a withdrawal of "security services" by god from witches and wizards or the devil in order to get members more compliant with "the word".

But the question is "what exactly is the benefit of believing in God (especially the Christian and Muslim gods) to an average Nigerian?

Let take a deeper look into this question. Does the belief in "God" or being Muslim or Christian help us:

- Love each other more? Do Nigerians now love each other more despite being enormously religious? I do not think so. From experience, despite the tenets of their religion, theists have not been able to show unconditional love for each other. In fact, the gap seems to get wider with each day.

Members of RCCG detest members of JW and likewise. Christians and Muslims also show intolerance towards each other. Christians are happy with the fact that every single Muslim and any other person who does not believe in THEIR god is going to hell. Same with the Muslims. Christians burn down shrines, label old men, women and children witches and torture them. Muslims recently killed a female Christian pastor simply because she was preaching in the morning. Christians and Muslims keep "house girls/boys aka modern day slaves"(although the bible and quran both support slavery). Christians and Muslims burn thieves without a proper trial and it is even considered a normal thing in our society.

Be more honest? Every single corrupt politician who has ever stolen or looted Nigeria's funds has either been Christian or Muslim and lots of well known men of god have supported these people. As a people, we subscribe to bribery, African time, parents proudly register their wards in "special centers" during national examinations, our civil service in dipped in corruption, we are known worldwide for drug peddling, internet fraud, con artistry and other illegal money making schemes. These people have always proven to be very religious.

Develop our infrastructure? We all know that NEPA/PHCN cannot deliver 24 hour constant power to save their lives. Our health care is in shambles and we have to provide for our own power, water and even road network.

Make us more law abiding? Just take a trip to Kirikiri, at least 98% of criminals there are religious. Same with the corrupt prison warders who care for visiting even though "visiting is free".

Make us a more prosperous nation? Even though Christians and Muslims share a large percentage of the world's wealth



Religious nations are also among the world's poorest. Aside from the US. How ironic?



Putting all into consideration, you tend to wonder, why is it so difficult for Nigerians to be more focused, honest, united and loving of each other despite having a church on every street and a mosque at every junction?

And what exactly is the benefit of religion, aside from tithe and offering money, to the average Nigerian?

Mature opinions please.
